Bai Zhiyuan woke up in the morning after a dreamless night. She felt weak and sore all over, and was confused for a moment when she woke up.

Soon, the memories in her mind reminded her of what had happened.

She wanted to get out of bed, but her legs hurt whenever she moved, so she couldn't get out of bed.

At this moment, Cheng Beixiao came in with a bowl of medicine. Seeing her wake up, he showed surprise in his eyes. He turned around and shouted outside: "Yun Song, Miss Bai is awake."

Bai Zhiyuan followed his gaze and saw Xie Yunsong talking to Lu Zhiling. After hearing what Cheng Beixiao said, he immediately turned around and came in.

He walked quickly to her bed, stretched out his hands, looked her up and down, then raised his hands and touched her forehead. He paused, and it was obvious that he was relieved.

Bai Zhiyuan finally spoke. She had been in a coma for several days and her voice was hoarse as she asked, "How long have I been sleeping?"

Without waiting for Xie Yunsong to answer, Cheng Beixiao said, "You have been in a coma for three days since you came down from the mountain. During these three days, Yunsong stayed by your side all the time."

Then, he felt her pulse again. After a moment, he said with satisfaction: "Yes, Miss Bai is in very good health and is recovering slowly. I think she will be fully recovered soon."

He turned around and handed over the medicine bowl, saying, "Hey, drink today's medicine quickly. You scared us all to death. But you are so amazing. You fought against more than ten people alone and even cut off the arm of the Northern Di prince. I admire you so much."

Cheng Beixiao had already learned from Tianlin what happened that day, and now he truly admired her from the bottom of his heart.

Seeing him chattering non-stop, Xie Yunsong frowned slightly, snatched the medicine bowl from his hand, and drove him out of the tent, saying, "Miss Bai just woke up and is weak at the moment. You should go back first."

Cheng Beixiao was dissatisfied and wanted to say something, but he saw that Xie Yunsong had already locked the tent door.

Bai Zhiyuan finally came to her senses. With a smile in her eyes, she picked up the medicine bowl. For a moment she felt her hands trembling slightly and she couldn't even lift the bowl.

The next moment, Xie Yunsong took the medicine bowl, picked up the spoon, and carefully scooped a spoonful to feed her mouth.

Bai Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, but soon opened his mouth and drank the bowl of medicine.

Neither of them spoke.

After drinking the medicine, Xie Yunsong took the medicine bowl away.

Bai Zhiyuan then saw the wounds on her body clearly. She thought they had been cleaned and all her clothes were changed into new ones. There were no women in the barracks. Who changed her clothes? She thought about it and it should be Xie Yunsong. Thinking of this, her face flushed a little.

Just then, Xie Yunsong returned and sat in front of her couch.

Bai Zhiyuan looked at him and asked, "My injury..."

Xie Yunsong said: "I handled it for you. It happened suddenly, I..."

"It's okay! I don't blame you." Bai Zhiyuan interrupted him.

Xie Yunsong felt uncomfortable for a moment, and soon he heard Bai Zhiyuan whisper, "Xie Yunsong, I'm sorry."

Xie Yunsong was startled and asked, "Why are you sorry?"

Bai Zhiyuan replied: "If I hadn't gone up the mountain alone that day, I wouldn't have been in danger, and there wouldn't have been such a large force."

Xie Yunsong touched her head and said, "It's not your fault. If you hadn't happened to meet Yu Huangqing, he might have sneaked into the North Border Camp. No one knows what would happen then."

Bai Zhiyuan then asked, "Have you caught Yu Huangqing?"

Xie Yunsong shook his head.

Bai Zhiyuan comforted him, "He's already a useless man. Even if he's not dead, he won't be able to cause any trouble for a while. We are lucky to have some peace and quiet now."

Xie Yunsong approached her, hugged her in his arms and said, "I will never allow you to take risks alone again. Do you know how scared I was when I knew you jumped off the cliff that day? Ah Yuan, you really scared me to death this time."

Bai Zhiyuan leaned in his arms and chuckled, "I was cornered at the time, and all I could think about was that I must not become a burden to you, and I must not be your captive. I jumped. But when I woke up, I was also very scared. I didn't want to leave you, and I didn't want to die like this, so I desperately crawled to that hiding place, and finally waited for you."

Xie Yunsong sighed and said, "Even if I'm captured, I will do everything I can to save you. You don't have to choose to jump off the cliff."

Bai Zhiyuan sat up straight and said sternly, "Xie Yunsong, I cannot be a captive. I am the daughter of General Weiyuan and the county lord personally appointed by the emperor. I cannot allow the Beidi people to threaten you with me. If that happens, I would rather die."

Xie Yunsong was stunned for a moment, then said: "I know your heart, but knowing that you are in trouble, my heart is broken. I am afraid that I will never see you again. Ayuan, I have never been so scared."

Bai Zhiyuan could hear the fear in his words, so he leaned into his arms and said, "Xie Yunsong, I'm fine."

"When my injuries heal, I can be alive and well again. Compared to Yu Huangqing, I am already very lucky. Maybe God will not abandon me and bring you to my side. Every time I am in danger, you will come."

"Thank you, Xie Yunsong, for saving me again."

Xie Yunsong kissed her cheek lightly, and after a moment, he let her go and said, "You must be hungry. You haven't eaten for a few days. I'll ask the kitchen to warm up the porridge for you. I'll ask someone to bring you a bowl. Have some."

After saying this, he gently put her down, turned and walked out of the tent, said something to Tianxun who was guarding outside the tent, and then turned back.

After a while, Tianxun brought a bowl of porridge.

Xie Yunsong took the bowl, sat in front of her couch, scooped a spoonful of porridge, blew on it gently, and carefully fed it to Bai Zhiyuan's mouth.

Bai Zhiyuan smiled and slowly let him feed her, eating half a bowl of porridge.

While feeding him, Xie Yunsong chattered non-stop: "You slept for such a long time and just woke up. You can't eat too much at once. Eat something first to recover your energy."

Bai Zhiyuan nodded. After finishing the porridge, Xie Yunsong rolled up her trouser legs again, changed the medicine for her, and then slowly helped her to sleep.

After doing all this, he was about to leave and let her have a good rest. Unexpectedly, Bai Zhiyuan grabbed his hand and said, "Xie Yunsong, I have slept for three days and I don't want to sleep anymore. Can you accompany me?"

Xie Yunsong paused. She rarely used such a coquettish tone. In his impression, she was always strong and sensible. A smile flashed in his eyes. He had been with her every day for the past few days. He had a lot of military affairs to deal with, but in the end he couldn't bear to refuse her. After thinking about it, he decided to stay.

Xie Yunsong said, "You still have a few scratches on your front. It's really inconvenient for me to apply medicine for you. If you can, apply some medicine yourself and you will heal faster."

Bai Zhiyuan felt a little embarrassed when she heard him say that, thinking that he had treated her injuries. Her face turned red, and she finally nodded.

Xie Yunsong went forward and hugged her again. Neither of them spoke for a while, enjoying this moment of joy after surviving the disaster.

After a while, Xie Yunsong felt that the person in his arms was breathing evenly, then he looked down at her. Perhaps because of her weak body, the person in his arms had fallen asleep at some point.

Xie Yunsong kissed her hair, laid her gently on the couch, covered her with the quilt, then left Bai Zhiyuan's tent and walked towards his own tent.

The table was covered with piles of military books, and there were too many military affairs to deal with. The lights in the room were dim, and Xie Yunsong sat at the table and slowly picked up the long scroll to read.

After a long while, he put down the military register in his hand, studied it, and wrote a letter to be sent to the capital, reporting to the current emperor what happened in the northern border.

After doing all this, it was already getting light in the sky, so he walked towards the bed, lay down and closed his eyes. He had not slept well for several days because he was worried about Bai Zhiyuan. Today he could finally get a good sleep.
