Pei Yu pointed in the direction of the firewood room, "Princess, are you sure you want to live in the firewood room?"

Shi Wu smiled and said, "I haven't lived in the firewood room yet, you can give it a try."

Pei Yu's eyes were far-reaching. Once upon a time, he was the ambitious Honglu Temple Minister, but what was he like now?

"Pei Yu, don't worry, as long as you agree to marry me, I will go back to the capital and plead with my father to restore your official position, and you will not be a fugitive."

Pei Yu has always been aloof and well-educated. How could he, a proud son of heaven since childhood, restore his status by eating gigolos?

"Pei Yu, don't be silent." Shi Wu pulled him and ordered.

Pei Yu said solemnly: "Princess, I appreciate your kindness, but I want to stand out with my own ability."

"What's the difference? Is it shameful to be a royal consort? How many people would love to be one!"

Pei Yu stood up and walked towards the woodshed. Shi Wu followed him into the woodshed, but she didn't expect Pei Yu to take out a robe.

"Princess, this is for you. I'll go somewhere else."

He disappeared into the night without saying a word. As soon as Shi Wu entered the woodshed, she saw such a broken and hard straw pile. How could she sleep?

"Just sleep, so Pei Yu can understand my sincerity."

In the cave in Pinggu, Shi Yan endured the pain and let the wound be disinfected and medicated.

Xu Mian had been waiting for news, and finally Yun Hao came in and reported, "Your Highness, the Twelve Zodiac Animals are back."

Xu Mian heaved a sigh of relief. Shi Jun should be fine, he had already gone back, and the Royal Grandmother would definitely be able to persuade him to let it go...

The palace maids who served the Queen Mother on the mountain brought in food, "Your Highness and the Crown Princess, please have some for now."

Shi Yan hurriedly called, "Mian Mian must be hungry, go and eat something."

Xu Mian went to the stone table and brought a bowl of glutinous rice porridge over, "A Yan, you haven't had a drop of water for two or three days, I'll feed you porridge."

Although Shi Yan felt sorry for her and didn't want her to be tired, he really wanted to enjoy her care.

"You've worked hard, Mianmian, you should eat with us."

After they had filled their stomachs, Shi Yan coaxed her, "Let them hunt game for you tomorrow, okay?"

"Yes."

Shi Yan saw that her embroidered shoes were covered in mud, and ordered, "Take the Crown Princess' shoes and clean them, and go down the mountain to buy a few pairs tomorrow morning."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Mianmian, come up."

Xu Mian pointed to the tiger-skin bench next to him, "Ayan, you have wounds. If I don't sleep well, I will hurt you. I'm going to sleep on the chair."

Shi Yan stretched out his arms and hugged her waist to lift her up, "With you by my side, my wounds can heal faster. It's been a long time since I hugged you to sleep. I really want to hug Mianmian and have a peaceful sleep."

Xu Mian pulled the quilt over his waist and put it in place, "Ayan, then go to sleep. If you want to drink water in the middle of the night, call me." Shi

Yan took away her pillow and lay down with her, "My arm is your pillow, Mianmian."

He had many wounds on his upper body. In order to make the wounds heal faster, he did not wear a robe. Xu Mian moved to the side for fear of being touched.

"A Yan, go to sleep quickly. Sleeping can nourish your spirit and heal your injuries."

Shi Yan turned her on her side and forced her into his arms. "Mian Mian, it's like a dream. You know how anxious I was when I knew you were missing in the palace. All I hated along the way was why I didn't have a pair of wings to fly to you."

Xu Mian gently stroked the wound on his chest that was different from the whip mark. "A Yan, how did you get injured here?"

"I was ambushed in the dense forest of Liuzhou and hit by a poisoned dart. If I hadn't been hit by the poisoned dart, I could have come to Jiangzhou to find you half a month earlier."

Xu Mian wondered if the person who ambushed Shi Yan was Shi Jun?

Gently blowing on the healed red scars, "Ayan, I'm sorry for making you suffer."

Shi Yan stroked her cheek, "It's not suffering, it's the mark of my love for you, Mianmian, I didn't protect you well."

Xu Mian stretched out her hands to hook his neck, raised her eyes and tears filled her eyes, "Ayan, I will be your good wife in the future."

"Mianmian is so good." Shi Yan lowered his head and kissed her face, "Let me kiss you."

Xu Mian looked up and closed her eyes. Shi Yan was even reluctant to kiss her. As if in a dream, she finally returned to his side.

"Mianmian, I love you, I want to kiss you until the end of time..."

The burning breath intertwined between the two, "Mianmian, let's never separate again, okay."

"Okay."

He wanted to take her completely into his body, "Mianmian, I love you, you love me too, right?"

Xu Mian opened her misty eyes and murmured in agreement. Suddenly, she sobbed and leaned her head on Shi Yan's chest, "A Yan, I feel sad today... Woo woo woo..."

Shi Yan kissed her shoulders and stroked her smooth back, "Mianmian, don't be sad, just forget it."

Xu Mian leaned against his strong chest muscles and murmured, "A Yan, what is love?"

Shi Yan hugged her tightly, "Love is changing for the other person, love is doing anything for the other person, love is caring, love is reluctant to give up..."

Xu Mian fell into deep thought, who did she love? She has these two feelings towards Shi Yan and Shi Jun.

"Mian Mian, are you my Crown Princess?"

"Yes."

"Did you miss me all the way in Jiangzhou?"

"Yes."

"Are you worried and anxious when you see me injured?"

"Very anxious."

Xu Mian thought of Pei Yu's words that day, "Did you fall in love with two men at the same time, because of the same face?" She was too guilty to look at Shi Yan, and leaned on his chest to secretly think, can a person really fall in love with two people at the same time? This is too sinful, and must not be known to anyone.

The next day, Shi Yan was still sleeping, Xu Mian quietly got up, opened the door, and saw Shi Wu walking towards this side with a food box.

"Sister-in-law, you woke up early."

Xu Mian opened the food box and saw that it was all vegetarian. "Princess, I want to nourish Ah Yan. Are there pheasants on the mountain here?"

Shi Wu was very excited when she heard it. "Yes, sister-in-law, do you want to catch some?"

"Will you help me?"

"No problem, I know a place where pheasants are found, I'll take you there."

The two men went to the back mountain and waited for pheasants, each holding a slingshot in their hands. Xu Mian smiled and said, "I haven't played with this thing for a long time. I'll rely on it today."

"There's a sound."

Sure enough, a pheasant with black and red hair appeared from the bushes. Xu Mian and Shi Wu shot it several times with stones. The pheasant was injured and fled. The two men chased and caught it.

"I've caught it!"

Xu Mian hugged the pheasant, "Red-haired chicken, it's up to you to nourish Ah Yan. Shi Wu, can you pluck chicken feathers?"

Shi Wu shook her hands and said, "I won't do such a disgusting thing."

"It doesn't matter, I'll do it. I've seen the nanny do it in the mansion. Where is the first step to pluck the feathers?"

After pulling the chicken feathers, the pheasant struggled to escape from her arms, "Don't let it run away, catch it!"

The two people chased after it and saw Pei Yu walking towards them with the pheasant in his hand, "Pei Yu!" Shi Wu shouted excitedly.

Xu Mian smiled and said, "Brother Pei Yu, I'm glad you're okay... Can you kill and pluck a chicken?"

Pei Yu nodded and said, "Mian Mian, go to the kitchen first, I'll bring the chicken over later."

"Brother Pei Yu is amazing."

The two walked towards the kitchen of Lingyun Temple. After walking a few steps, Xu Mian suddenly felt dizzy.
