"Okay, let's do as he says!"
"Brother, you haven't taken your medicine yet. Drink it first!" Li Yong said, looking at the medicine on the bedside table and bringing it to Zhao Moyan.
"Leave it for now, we'll drink it later."
"Okay, brother, don't worry about recovering. I'll take care of things in the camp."
"I'm fine! You should go back to the barracks as soon as possible."
"I understand, brother. After this incident, I think it's better for you not to be with sister-in-law. She's right, she can't help you, she'll only cause you trouble. You don't know how much trouble she was willing to fight me for Chen Chong back then."
As they were talking, Li Yong noticed Zhao Moyan's gaze and dared not continue. He explained, "I didn't mean anything by it. If you like it, then it's fine. I'll head back now."
After saying that, he slunk out the door and closed it. Just then, he ran into Tian Yu who was returning. He pulled Tian Yu aside and whispered, "Sister-in-law, I'm not trying to be mean, but what you did this time was too hurtful. You know how my brother treats you."
"I know, you can be mean to me if you want, I won't blame you."
"I wouldn't dare to be mean to you. You should take good care of your older brother! He's really something, he's taught him for so long but still couldn't win you back. He can only silently protect you."
"What's the meaning?"
"Don't you know?! During the month you were at Yanyu Tower, your elder brother was there guarding the place, running between the military camp and the county town every day. The reason you were able to come back safely every night was because your elder brother was protecting you from the shadows. Otherwise, the soldiers in the city would have arrested you long ago. And you think Yanyu Tower is so popular, but no one knows who is behind it, and no one dares to cause trouble. Who is it because of that? It's all because your elder brother has covered up all the news for you. It's all because your elder brother is taking care of things for you behind the scenes."
"Isn't it Prince Wu?" Tian Yu asked in surprise.
“Prince Wu? How could an old fox like him help you for no reason? Even if he does help you, it's just to curry favor with my elder brother.”
"How is that possible!?"
“What do you think? Sister-in-law, you are a smart person, but why don’t you think about your brother? Over the years, what kind of injuries hasn’t your brother suffered? This time, although the injury is the least serious, the illness is the most severe.”
Tian Yu didn't know how she got back to her room. Li Yong's words kept replaying in her mind. She remembered that she did feel someone was watching her when she was in Yanyu Tower, but she always thought she was just imagining things and didn't pay attention. Every time she walked back at night, Zhao Moyan was always by her side. He was the one who quelled the troubles in Yanyu Tower.
Why did she only find out now? Why did he never say anything? Thinking of all this, Tian Yu couldn't help but shed tears. Without knocking, she pushed the door open and went inside.
