Chapter 297 Afraid of Scare His Highness
Zhou Yichen suppressed his impatience, said, "Stand up," and then continued to ask, "How is Qi Bai?"
He had been knocked unconscious by Qi Bai Yueyue before and was taken away by Zheng Hao and others.
In order to prevent the city from being breached and Zhou Yichen's identity from being exposed, Zheng Hao had already dressed him in coarse linen clothes.
When Zhou Yichen woke up, he was not used to wearing such coarse linen clothes, so he didn't care about the rash on his body and rushed to the city wall immediately.
They just grabbed anyone and asked where Qi Bai was. The first few people didn't know where Qi Bai was, but after great difficulty they caught Bian Hangqing, who was able to confirm that Qi Bai was there.
He rushed over without stopping, and along the way, he unconsciously imagined the worst possible outcome in his mind.
I was afraid I was late...
"Qi Bai has already retreated back to the city. He should be treating his wounds in this inn."
Yun Jiyu is Chu Jiang's cousin and has the closest relationship with him. And when Zhou Yichen looked at him, he answered everything he knew.
"Your Highness, don't worry too much."
The inn was requisitioned by them and used as a base, and all the injured soldiers came here voluntarily or were sent here to treat their injuries.
No matter when Qi Bai came or in which room he treated his wounds, at least one thing is certain.
That means there is no doubt that the person must be in this inn.
"Where is he?" Zhou Yichen ignored Yun Jiyu's words of comfort and asked directly, skipping all the nonsense.
Yun Jiyou shook his head, "I don't know. We just arrived not long ago. When we got here, Qi Bai disappeared."
Zhou Yichen, "......"
If I had known that he would bring people to look for it himself, there would be no need to waste time talking to him here.
Although Yuan Qi was the eldest prince's personal guard, the eldest prince was stationed at the border all year round and could only come back a few times a year.
He has not actually seen how the Third Prince and Chu Jiang get along, so he cannot judge whether the things circulating outside are rumors or true?
However, after this incident, he truly believed it.
Chu Jiangneng risked his life and stayed outside the city with his men, allowing them to retreat into the city.
Before that, he was still thinking about the Third Prince, so he took the initiative to knock him unconscious, and kept an eye on the Third Prince's guards to make sure they protected him.
It is obvious that Chu Jiang is very loyal to the Third Prince. As for the Third Prince, Prince Yan, the first thing he did when he woke up was to look for Prince Chu everywhere.
The relationship between the two is comparable to that between brothers.
Yuan Qi lowered his eyes and thought of his eldest prince, and couldn't help but sigh.
How could he dare to call other princes brothers in a place like the royal family, where there was so much intrigue? No one knew if this "brother" would stab him in the back one day.
I don’t know who is whispering and gossiping behind my back.
"It seems that the relationship between His Royal Highness Prince Yan and Prince Chu is really like that of brothers! The rumors outside are true."
They thought they had lowered their voices, but for those who practiced martial arts, their hearing was so good that they did not need to listen deliberately.
Even the slightest movement will be amplified several times and can be heard clearly.
The soldiers at the side quickly lowered their voices and echoed, "That's right. Don't you think about the fact that Prince Chu used his life to protect His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan on the battlefield before? How could they have a bad relationship?"
Han Ziyu heard their conversation, turned around with cold eyes and glanced at the two people who were talking, frowning.
From his expression and eyes, the two injured soldiers saw the warning and quickly shut their mouths, not daring to say another word.
The two of them suddenly realized that there were so many generals in the room, even His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan was there...
The two men broke out in cold sweats. If His Royal Highness Prince Yan heard about this and investigated, they would be dead.
Fortunately, His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan turned around and left without hesitation, going to another room, and seemed not to hear their whispers.
The two people who escaped the disaster breathed a sigh of relief, feeling lucky that they had saved their lives.
Han Ziyu walked up to the two men with a cold face and scolded them in a low voice, "You are courting death. You even dare to talk about the prince. Be careful that your head will fall off one day."
The two of them lowered their heads, trembling with fear, and dared not say another word.
As for Han Yaojun and his companions, it's not that they didn't hear their discussion, but their minds were too far away at the moment to bother warning the two bold wounded soldiers.
As they said, Qi Bai cares about the Third Prince, and the Prince cares about Qi Bai even more.
The relationship between the two of them seemed to have gone beyond just being study partners.
Even if we are brothers, it’s no more than this, right?
Yun Jiyu stared at Zhou Yichen's hurriedly departing back thoughtfully, and his brows couldn't help but frowned slightly.
Although Qi Bai was the study partner of His Royal Highness Prince of Yan, the relationship between the two was certainly not that of ordinary people.
His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan would not treat Qi Bai as an ordinary subject.
But...isn't this kind of concern a bit excessive?
Qi Bai regards His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan as his lord and wants to assist him wholeheartedly. The Prince of Yan seems to value Qi Bai very much and trust him.
This was originally a good thing, but even with the friendship of a childhood study partner, His Royal Highness Prince Yan's attention and concern for Bai seemed to have exceeded the limit!
It was not only the meticulous Yun Jiyu who noticed this, Rong Qingzhu also noticed it.
He noticed it not because he was careful or thoughtful, but because he was overly concerned about Qi Bai.
Zhou Yichen's condition made him think of himself unconsciously...
-
Zhou Yichen asked Zheng Hao to lead people to search for people in the inn in several groups.
He went to a more remote backyard to look for it himself.
Chu Er was standing guard outside the door. Before his master came out of the house, His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan arrived first.
Zhou Yichen walked hurriedly and eagerly, revealing an indescribable panic; his worry was already written all over his face.
Chu Er saluted, "Your Highness."
Zhou Yichen nodded and wanted to continue walking forward, so he pushed the door and entered the house.
At this moment, Chu Er suddenly blocked his way and said in a calm tone and expressionless face, "Your Highness, please stop."
"Qibai is in there?" Zhou Yichen didn't care about Chu Er's "offense" and asked calmly.
"Yes, the master is cleaning the wound and changing the dressing." Chu Er said honestly.
"Then why don't you go in and help?" Zhou Yichen looked puzzled.
Chu Er paused and lowered his eyes, as if thinking about how to organize his words.
Zhou Yichen seemed to have lost his patience and planned to bypass him and go directly into the house to check on Bai's condition.
At this moment, a sound suddenly came from the room.
His voice was low, clear and cold, clean and ethereal.
"Your Highness."
"Qi Bai, how are you injured?"
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I can handle it myself."
"I'll just come in and take a look."
"Please stop, Your Highness. The wound is festering and it doesn't look good. I'm afraid it will scare Your Highness."
"When did we need to be so polite to each other?" Zhou Yichen paused, "Besides, Qibai, you underestimate me too much. No wound can scare me."
He was more worried about Qi Bai's injuries. How serious could they be to make Qi Bai say something that would scare him?
