Yibo took care of the meeting report and tried his best to act quickly to prevent any bad things from happening in the palace.
Yi Zhou informs Yibo of the most important things. He looks at the angry Yibo, who sighs and nods.
"Ok, we will be ready, don't tell Kuan-ge about it, and just inform Jiang Cheng, and you may leave".
"Yes, Prince Yibo". He bowed to him and left the room, Yibo took a deep breath and released it while Xiao Zhan stood next to him.
"What are you thinking about?". Yibo shakes his head.
"Nothing much, how will we avoid what happened years ago now like this?". Xiao Zhan smiles a little.
"Like this you mean....We don't have a lot of allys?".
"Yes, Yi Zhou has a few trusted friends, and us, will we win against them??". Xiao Zhan stands in front of him.
"Prince Yibo...You are talking like you are weak and will lose from one soldier attack only". Yibo frowned and stood up facing him.
"Say that again and I will----".
"Will what?". Xiao Zhan cut him coldly while looking at his eyes, Yibo didn't dare to say anything back to him, Xiao Zhan smiled a little at him.
"Prince Yibo, I know what you are capable of doing, you are not weak, this wound is proof, that I am the only trainee who successfully passed all exams to get to this position, including quick wit and action, but you were faster than me in that, you are a strong person". Yibo didn't know how to feel about these words, he felt happy and sad too, he stepped closer and touched Xiao Zhan's wounded stomach slowly.
".....Sorry, the war is about to happen, but you are-----".
"I will be fine; I can manage myself". Xiao Zhan cut him and held Yibo's hand to remove it from his stomach.
"Stop thinking about it already, I am recovering slowly, and until that time I will be finer". He said and Yibo nodded with relief.
**************
During the week, Zhuo Cheng was careful with the first prince to not stress him more, whenever he asked about the situation in the palace, he would answer him with "When you get better you will know, for now, everything is under control", and that's it, Hai Kuan gives up asking so he focuses on resting.
"I'm COMPLETELY fine now, I want to go out a little". The first prince sulked on the bed because Zhuo Cheng didn't let him go outside during recovery days.
"Let me check". He puts his hand on his forehead and takes it back.
"Even so, No means No, you can breathe from the window".
"I Don't Want From The Window! I Want To Go Outside!". He said firmly and Zhuo Cheng looked at him sharply, he stood in front of him and bent to his level, Hai Kuan held his breath since their face was a few inches away.
"Listen carefully Prince Hai Kuan, we have to be more careful since outside is dangerous, you don't know what may happen if you leave, even standing by the window can cause something, so, what I say is what you will follow, do you understand?". He said firmly and Hai Kuan looked at his eyes before he nodded slowly.
"Good, I don't want to repeat my words".
"You are acting weird lately, what are you hiding??". Hai Kuan asked, but Zhuo Cheng turned away to leave, a loud crash happened outside and took their attention, Zhuo Cheng stood next to Hai Kuan to protect him, suddenly the door opened, and Xiao Zhan entered.
"Attack!!". Zhuo Cheng understands it and takes out his sword.
"Attack?? What Does That Mean?!!". Hai Kuan asked, and Zhuo Cheng turned to look at him seriously.
