Chapter 73: Desire in the Heart (2)
"Princess, please calm down and stop thinking about it."
“Ugh!!”
Yin Yin herself didn't know why she suddenly felt a headache. She just felt like she seemed to remember something, but it suddenly disappeared and her mind was blank again.
"I'm sorry to make you feel embarrassed. The one who saved you was King Zhao, the master I chose. He heard that this place was invaded by the plague, so he wanted to come and take a look. He saw that the princess was in danger, so he helped her. I was just diligently healing her."
Wang Ye's gentle voice and words gradually calmed Yin Yin's emotions, and she listened to everything he said.
"King Zhao...?"
Her mind was blank the moment before, but now Yinyin's mind reappeared the feeling of being held in Zhao Ziheng's arms. She felt very warm and familiar. Was it an illusion? Why did she feel heartbroken when she saw the sadness in Zhao Ziheng's eyes? There should be no reason, but she still felt heartbroken, just like now, whenever she thought of Zhao Ziheng's eyes, she still felt a dull pain in her heart?
"Who... is he?"
There was no doubt that the few words Yin Yin uttered surprised Wang Ye, but he quickly regained his composure, and a gentle smile appeared on his face as he faced Yin Yin's gentle expression.
"He is a person who can save many lives, including you, Princess."
“Eh? Really?”
She didn't realize that what Wang Ye said was an answer to her questions. She thought it was what Wang Ye wanted to say himself. Yin Yin felt surprised and her heartbeat seemed to accelerate. The confused look in her eyes was gradually replaced by a softness. Wang Ye had seen this kind of look before. There was no doubt that it only appeared when she was with Zhao Ziheng.
"King Zhao is a rare wise monarch. He is not like King Zhou and King Jing. Even though he knew there was danger, he still came here in person with the best medicine and a team of . He wants to treat everyone here, but the power of the princess is also indispensable."
"I?"
"Yes, after all, my lord is the monarch of another country and cannot interfere in other countries' affairs privately. Even setting foot here is not allowed. Once discovered, it will make Zhao's position difficult and even worsen the relationship between the two countries. Fortunately, the princess appeared at this time. If the princess wants to save the people here, please trust us no matter what and help us."
"Me? ...What should I do?"
Even though she didn't understand anything, Yin Yin knew that her country would never allow other countries to interfere in its affairs. Although she couldn't completely believe the words of Wang Ye, who served the monarch of another country, as long as she thought of Zhao Ziheng, Yin Yin no longer worried about it. Besides, this was the reason why she came here. If she could get help from one more person, Yin Yin would feel more hope, so she had no reason to refuse, even if it was help from another country.
"Prince Jing is camping outside the city now and may leave at any time. Before the tragedy happens, please ask the princess to persuade Prince Jing. We have not yet completely found a way to suppress and prevent it, but there is still hope. We have also more or less grasped the composition of the disease. I believe that we will find a way in a few days, so those people can survive, and Weicheng can be reborn again."
"Really?"
"How dare I lie to the princess?"
Wang Ye's words made Yin Yin feel as if she saw the dawn, and she even thought it was an illusion. Could someone in the world find a way to cure the plague? This was unprecedented and unheard of. Could Yin Yin believe it? No, she had to believe it, and she couldn't find a reason not to believe it. She had a hunch that this would be the only hope.
"…As long as I go to see Prince Jing?"
"Yes, I'm so sorry."
Zhao Ziheng could never say that he wanted Yin Yin to see Zhou Yan, so Wang Ye, who knew this, said it on his behalf. His worry was correct. The relationship between Zhou and Zhao had become somewhat bad because of Zhou Yan. If Zhao Ziheng showed up at this moment, it would definitely cause trouble, and Zhou Yan should not miss this opportunity. Unnecessary trouble must be avoided. As the king of a country, Zhao Ziheng must be aware of this, so he could not show up in person. And the only person in the world who could persuade Zhou Yan was probably Yin Yin. Whether it was a coincidence or God's will, Yin Yin's appearance here proved that only she could resolve this tragedy. Wang Ye knew that Zhao Ziheng did not want to send Yin Yin to Zhou Yan because of this, but for the sake of innocent people and Yin Yin herself, Zhao Ziheng had no choice. Everything was ready, and there would still be hope as long as Yin Yin showed up to stop the extreme behavior that Zhou Yan was about to implement!
"No, you don't need to apologize. On the contrary, I have to thank you. On the way to Weicheng, I saw many people suffering from the plague. I thought they would leave this world after suffering. I didn't expect you to find a way to save them. Thank you so much. I was planning to find him and stop him. This is just right. I promise, I will definitely stop him."
"...Princess!"
Wang Ye had thousands of words to say but he couldn't express what was in his heart. In fact, he didn't want to send Yin Yin to Zhou Yan. If possible, he would rather let Yin Yin stay with Zhao Ziheng. Only in this way could she be happy. Although he could never express his feelings to her, as long as he could be with her and as long as she was happy, Wang Ye felt satisfied.
