"There's nothing to be surprised about, my girl is not good at cooking, but others will do. You must be hungry soon, I'll go make something for you to eat." Pei Mingxuan had his breakfast solved with yesterday's red date porridge, Yuan Shuhan always thought that porridge was not filling. Moreover, Yuan Shuhan had strictly regulated Pei Mingxuan's food intake, so he naturally had to achieve eating less and more frequently.
The patient needs nutrition and should be given something new to eat. Eating red date porridge every meal will also get boring.
"After all, we still have to get along for a while, no need to be so cold." At least Yuan Shu Han had never smiled at herself before, even those servants could get her smile, but this king was so annoying.
"It takes courage to be with the king, and facing you makes me feel especially inferior. Can't the king just leave a way out for us ugly people?" Yuan Shuhuan's words were indeed true, and his expression was as if he was about to cry, which made Pei Mingxuan almost laugh.
This girl is still as unexpected, only this face has always been liked by people, but unexpectedly it became a burden here. "A beautiful face is given by parents, let alone Miss Huan, how can she be called ugly." Yuan Shu Huan's straightforwardness left a very good impression on Pei Ming Xuan, direct and not so much heart.
Instead, it reminded Pei Mingxuan of the people in the military camp. Perhaps many people think they are rough and rude, but Pei Mingxuan really likes their true nature. After returning to the capital, facing those people's faces, Pei Mingxuan was worried. This is also one of the reasons why Pei Mingxuan often smiles when he is with Yuan Shuheng and his sister, it can be said that they are carefree here.
"Beauty and ugliness are relative, no one can be considered beautiful in front of the king except for inner beauty. Yuan Shu Han didn't intentionally avoid Pei Ming Xuan, she just spoke the truth. The king shouldn't be displeased because of his appearance! As the king said earlier, looks are gifted by heaven and earth. Moreover, after a hundred years, everyone will end up as yellow soil covering white bones, where's the distinction between beauty and ugliness then?"
Every time Yuan Shu mentioned Pei Mingxuan's beauty, a hint of inexplicable expression would flash in Pei Mingxuan's eyes, although it wasn't that obvious. A beautiful appearance is both a blessing and a curse, originally a double-edged sword, most easily hurting oneself and others. Moreover, as a military man, such beauty was actually an obstacle for Pei Mingxuan.
The King of Lanling hid his stunning appearance under a mask, but wasn't it because that face concealed his true abilities? Pei Mingxuan was probably the same, with beauty so astonishing that people couldn't see his efforts. Moreover, such good looks made people let their guard down, and perhaps that's why he became king so quickly.
Unfortunately, for a man, it would only be a humiliation. A man's standing in the world depends on his abilities, not on relying on a pretty face to gain wealth and status. Although that's what people say, as Yuan Shu Huan looked at Pei Ming Xuan's face, the jealousy in her heart grew even more intense.
This man has already reached a certain level of being favored by heaven, even if he himself is not necessarily happy about it. Yuan Shuheng looked at his own face and thought that his appearance was above average, as long as it didn't become more and more crooked in the future. As for his artistic style, if it could be maintained at a certain level, it would be best if it could get better and better over time.
"After all, I am the one who is muddled. Those who advise others are not yet clear themselves, how can they advise others to be clear? One's own appearance, whether beautiful or ugly, cannot even be discerned by oneself, why demand that others discern it."
"Although it is said that, the prince's elegance is like a jade tree in the wind, and Shu Han still wants to take another look. Unfortunately, he is also afraid of being infatuated and losing his soul, so he begs the prince to spare him." This is just one of his concerns, after all, who wouldn't want to take an extra glance at something beautiful, even if it's something they can't have in the end.
"I'd like to see the day when you can't help yourself for me." This appearance is enough to make people infatuated and lose their soul, but unfortunately, this Miss Yuan is always too reserved, which makes Pei Mingxuan somewhat regretful. Unfortunately, Pei Mingxuan also knows in his heart that what Yuan Shuhan said could be an explanation or just a joke.
Just like now, he just treated it as a joke. "An Mo, let's go back. We'll see Miss Han again soon... As for what happened after that, all I could see was Pei Mingxuan's lips moving, but I couldn't hear what Pei Mingxuan said.
"Grandfather, Han girl and us are ultimately two different paths." Although An Mo is often reckless and even out of tune, but this matter An Mo saw clearly, Yuan Shu Han and they are not on the same path, even if there is that ability, there is no such mind to walk with them on one path.
"It doesn't matter." Some things were already made very clear by Yuan Shuheng yesterday, and Pei Mingxuan would never go back on his word. "Making friends with a highly skilled doctor can't be all bad." Maybe it's just because of Yuan Shuheng being special, but after getting to know him, he might become as uninteresting as those women.
If you really think about it, this Yuan Shu is just a naive and ignorant girl. Even if she has some backing, nothing in this world is ever completely secure. Just like herself, no matter how much she guards against and plans for the worst, in the end she almost died at that person's hands.
"Han's medical skills are indeed good, my complexion has improved a lot." Yesterday, Pei Mingxuan's face was dark and pale, with a hint of grayish defeat. Now, although the paleness is still there, that dying aura has dissipated. He touched his hands and feet, which were no longer as icy cold as before, and there was some warmth in his palms.
Each time I apply the medicine or take a medicinal bath, the amount of blood that seeps out is less than before. Although it's just a slight change, it's still heading in a positive direction. Who would have thought that even an emperor would want to make me a king, if not for thinking that I'm on my deathbed?
If Grandfather really can't survive this disaster, being a prince is actually useless, it's just good for show. But now that people are dead, no matter how good the appearance is, it can't be eaten as food.
"It's much lighter than before, and you've also benefited from Miss Huan's excellent cooking." He now eats at most once an hour, and if he gets hungry quickly, he'll eat some of that pigskin gelatin.
"Grandpa ate more last night than he had in the past five days." After seeing the effect, An Mo worked harder than before and Yuan Shu Huan was also very pleasing to the eye. As long as Grandpa could be cured, even if it meant letting him have his way with Yuan Shu Huan, that would be fine.
Although it's just the beginning of treatment, An Mo has already seen a slight improvement, and... An Mo secretly glanced at Pei Mingxuan, most importantly, Grandpa is happy. Normally, making Grandpa smile is as difficult as ascending to heaven, but recently his mood is even better than before he got injured.
Especially when Miss Huan teased Grandfather just now, he had never heard Grandfather laugh so happily before. Even after winning several victories in a row, he hadn't seen Grandfather laugh like that.
"Eating a lot, getting hungry quickly too, those soups aren't even comparable to a single white steamed bun."
