Chapter 316 Call me 'Yan'?

"Huh? Master Yi, you... you know how to prepare medicine?" Ye Liuli suddenly looked up at Yi Yan, her head almost hitting his chin.

"Hey, Ye girl, are you jealous and trying to kill me to cover it up?!" Yi Yan hurriedly dodged, his eyes still displaying a smile that made everyone want to punch him.

Ye Liuli chuckled and said, "No, Master Yi, you're in my way. Get out of my way."

"Little Ye, don't call me Master Yi anymore, it sounds too formal. Just call me Yi Yan." Yi Yan reached out to pat Ye Liuli's head, but Ye Liuli turned her head away. Yi Yan smiled, leaned closer to Ye Liuli, and gently blew a breath near her ear: "Or, would you rather call me 'Yan'?"

Ye Liuli was instantly frozen in place as if by a spell, her face turning red rapidly at a visible speed. She bit her lower lip, her eyes filled with shyness and confusion.

Yi Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he was stunned.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Since you can prepare medicine, then keep doing it. I'm going to see the patients." With that, Ye Liuli fled in panic.

Yi Yan only realized what had happened after Ye Liuli disappeared from his sight.

"It seems I've made another mistake..." Yi Yan murmured, his eyes filled with dejection.

Ye Liuli ran shyly to the front of the hall and bumped into Ye Li.

"Brother, has another concubine in the palace been poisoned?!" Ye Liuli hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

"No," Ye Li said, feeling a pang of heartache as she saw Ye Liuli covered in dust. "Little sister, you've had a hard time, cough cough cough—"

"Brother, please sit down. Let me take your pulse." Ye Liuli pulled Ye Li to sit down at the table and placed her hand on Ye Li's pulse.

"Fourth Princess, you haven't been in the palace these past few days, so you don't know what's going on there. Not to mention the concubines in the harem who are getting sick every day, even the servants in the palace are either dying or running away. Now, the palace is almost an empty shell..." Eunuch Cao said with a regretful expression.

"How dare you! Who gave you the audacity to say such things!" Ye Li slammed her hand on the table, startling Eunuch Cao and even Ye Liuli.

"This servant...this servant was also worried about Your Majesty's health and wanted the Fourth Princess to spend more time with you. This servant was foul-mouthed, this servant knows his mistake..." Eunuch Cao hurriedly knelt down and kept slapping his own mouth.

Feeling a pang of pity, Ye Liuli said to Ye Li, "Brother, Eunuch Cao meant well."

"Hmph, if there's a next time, I'll have your tongue cut out," Ye Li threatened in a low voice.

"Yes, yes, this servant deserves to die, this servant deserves to die."

"Get up, you're making a fool of yourself." Ye Li snorted coldly, but the inhalation caused him to cough violently again.

"Night Girl, the medicine is here. Quickly, give it to Night Emperor." Yi Yan hurriedly came out of the pharmacy, holding a pill in his hand: "A sudden surge of anger can give the poison an opportunity to take hold."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, please eat it quickly." Ye Liuli poured a glass of water for Ye Li and watched him take the medicine.

Ten minutes later, Ye Li slowly opened his eyes and looked at Ye Liuli, who was staring at him anxiously. His eyes softened.

"I'm sorry to have worried you, little sister." Ye Li reached out and patted Ye Liuli's head as usual.

Ye Liuli smiled happily, squinted her eyes comfortably, and felt the touch of Ye Li's large hand stroking her hair. Suddenly, the image of Yi Yan stroking her hair just now flashed into her mind, and her face turned bright red.
