Chapter 773: Love between Children
At dusk, smoke rose from the Jingbei camp as soldiers lit stoves to cook. The aroma of barbecue mixed with milk wine accompanied by wisps of smoke filled every corner of the camp, making people salivate and their stomachs couldn't help but make gurgling sounds.

When Pan Yuyin walked out of Liu Xunyi's tent, it was already dark, but her expression was completely different from the increasingly gloomy sky. The depression and indifference of the day had all disappeared, replaced by an indescribable entanglement and contemplation.

"Miss Pan, everything we talked about today came out of my mouth and entered your ears. I hope..."

"Brother Liu, rest assured. I will keep my promise to you and will not reveal any of the secrets I heard to anyone else."

Looking at Liu Xunyi who hurriedly ran out of the tent and was still worried and reminded her again and again, Pan Yuyin was both moved and sad.

"That's great..." At this point, Liu Xunyi suddenly realized that the sky was getting darker and darker. His face changed and he said anxiously, "It's already so late. The princess..."

"Brother Liu, are you worried about the poison in the princess' body?" Pan Yuyin smiled slyly, and then slowly opened the medicine box under Liu Xunyi's anxious gaze, quickly and accurately took out a jade bottle, and said in a pretentious manner, "Stretch out your palm."

Liu Xunyi was stunned and spread out his palm doubtfully. A drop of crystal clear liquid slid into his palm.

"This……"

After a moment's hesitation, Liu Xunyi brought the liquid bead to his nose and sniffed it gently. He frowned immediately, then mustered up the courage to sip it into his mouth. The confusion between his brows became stronger and stronger, and hesitantly said: "It is colorless and tasteless, could it be..."

"It is the rootless water, and also the flower dew I collected this morning." Pan Yuyin revealed the secret in one sentence, and looked at Liu Xunyi with a smug look in her eyes.

"This……"

Liu Xunyi suddenly realized what was going on and was stunned. He felt relieved but at the same time, he felt annoyed and helpless for being "tricked" by Pan Yuyin.

At the same time, he was secretly glad in his heart that Pan Yuyin was kind by nature and would not harm innocent people.

"We didn't misjudge each other, and the truth didn't disappoint either of us." Pan Yuyin gently shook the jade bottle and smiled, as if she had returned to the past. The strange feeling lingering in Liu Xunyi's heart quickly disappeared, and the long-lost smile made him feel extremely at ease.

"I'm very curious. If I really killed Lord Luo with my own hands, what would you do? Would you kill me? Would you let the princess be buried with me?"

"I don't know." Pan Yuyin's expression darkened, and she murmured to herself, "I won't let innocent people be buried with you, and I won't even kill you. Maybe... I will end my own life and make amends to Uncle Luo on your behalf."

Pan Yuyin's answer made Liu Xunyi tremble with fear, and his mood, which had just calmed down, was stirred up again.

"Now I know Uncle Luo took a risk and was deserted by his friends and relatives. I also know that you are in a dilemma and have no choice. I also know that Miss Luo..." Having said this, Pan Yuyin's voice stopped abruptly, as if she didn't want to talk about the sad things anymore. Instead, her brows relaxed and she said comfortingly, "It's the past, Brother Liu, don't worry too much. Right now, curing the princess's illness is more important than anything else."

"Yes!" Liu Xunyi collected his thoughts and cautiously probed, "Miss Pan, how confident are you that you can cure the princess's illness?"

"What? Does Brother Liu not trust me?"

"Of course not! I just..." Liu Xunyi hesitated, "I just don't want you to be implicated. Long Yu only gave us three days, and today is over. If you can't cure the princess's illness by then, I'm worried..."

"Today was not wasted!" Pan Yuyin smiled meaningfully, "As the saying goes, 'If you want to do your job well, you must first sharpen your tools.' Master taught me to find the root cause of the disease and prescribe the right medicine, only then can the disease be cured. Otherwise, it will be in vain no matter how many prescriptions you try. As for finding the root cause of the disease... you don't necessarily have to start with the patient."

"What do you mean?" Liu Xunyi looked confused, totally unable to understand Pan Yuyin's remarks.

"Brother Liu, don't worry! I think I have found the root of the princess' illness. There is at least a chance of curing her."

Liu Xunyi nodded, not quite understanding, but suddenly his eyes straightened and he said without question: "Tomorrow evening, no matter what the result is, you must tell me the truth. If the results are insignificant, I will personally send you out of the Jingbei camp and hand you over to a friend of mine in Xijing Prefecture. With him protecting you, Long Yu will not be able to do anything to you."

Looking at Liu Xunyi's serious words, Pan Yuyin was moved, so she didn't say anything more, but just nodded obediently.

"The princess should be awake now. I'll go check on her." Pan Yuyin pondered, "Brother Liu, don't let anyone disturb us tonight."

"Don't worry, I will personally guard outside the tent." Liu Xunyi's voice was both nervous and expectant. "The princess... please leave her to Miss Pan."

"it is good."

Liu Xunyi's infatuation with Zhao Xin made Pan Yuyin's eyes pause slightly. She hurriedly agreed and walked quickly towards Zhao Xin's tent.

"Miss Pan!"

"Donor Pan..."

Seeing Pan Yuyin coming slowly, Feng Tianba and Wu Chan were shocked and quickly went forward to greet her.

"Thank you both for waiting outside the tent. I'll go in to see the princess." Pan Yuyin had something on her mind and had no intention of exchanging too much pleasantries with Feng Tianba and Wu Chan. She simply greeted them and went straight into the princess's tent.

Everything was normal for Feng Tianba, but Wuchan couldn't help showing a trace of loss on his face.

Looking at Wuchan who was hesitant to speak, Feng Tianba rolled his eyes and said teasingly, "Lord Liu and Miss Pan have been alone in the same tent for such a long time. I don't know what they have been doing? When I was in Lin'an, I heard a rumor that Lord Liu and Miss Pan had been married, even entered... the bridal chamber. As the saying goes, 'a short separation is better than a new marriage.' Hehe... little monk, do you think they will..."

At this point, Feng Tianba's mouth revealed a sly smile that could only be understood but not expressed in words. "I... I don't know!" Wuchan's cheeks were red, like a ripe apple. His tone was even more interesting, both shy and angry, and even a little exasperated, "Don't talk nonsense, Donor Feng, Donor Liu and Donor Pan are husband and wife in name only, not in reality. Donor Liu had already announced this to the world at the martial arts conference."

"I was just asking casually, why did you react so strongly, little monk?" Feng Tianba stared at the uneasy Wuchan and teased, "Tell me the truth, do you have any improper thoughts about Miss Pan?"

"What a sin! What a sin!" Wuchan hid aside as if escaping, and lowered his head as much as possible, as if he was afraid that Feng Tianba would see through his thoughts. "Buddhism has strict rules and regulations, and I have been familiar with them since I was young. How dare I violate them? Don't take this for fun, Mr. Feng. I can't bear it."

"Really?" Feng Tianba raised his eyebrows and continued, "Back then at Horyuji Temple, what did you promise Master Yuanku? You escorted the princess all the way to Jingbei Camp, and then rushed back to Shaolin. Now, we have arrived at Jingbei Camp. Last night you told me seriously that you would say goodbye to Lord Liu and Hero Su today. Why did you never mention saying goodbye again when Miss Pan came?"

“This…” Wu Chan was startled. If Feng Tianba hadn’t mentioned the matter of “saying goodbye”, he would have completely forgotten about it. He hastily explained, “Because Donor Long was in a hurry to leave, he disrupted my plan, so…”

"Monks don't tell lies. Are you speaking the truth, little monk?"

"Little monk... little monk..." Wuchan felt ashamed and annoyed when Feng Tianba pressed him aggressively. However, when it came to the crucial moment, he was tongue-tied and could not say anything further after hesitating for a long time.

In the end, if Liu Xunyi had not arrived in time, Wuchan would have been driven crazy by Feng Tianba.

When Pan Yuyin entered Zhao Xin's tent, Zhao Xin was still asleep.

Su He had sent someone to clean up the mess in the tent. At this moment, a bowl of rice porridge, a steamed bun, and a few dishes of meat and vegetables were quietly placed on the table. They were still the same as when they came, as if no one had touched them.

Seeing this, Pan Yuyin let out a silent sigh, poured a glass of water, tiptoed to the bed, quietly stared at the elegant beauty in her sleep, and couldn't bear to wake her up for a long time.

I don't know how much time had passed, but Zhao Xin's eyelids suddenly twitched a few times, her brows slightly frowned, and she opened her eyes slowly and with difficulty.

In the blurred vision, a graceful figure leaned over and sat down, slowly pulled her jade arm out of the quilt, and gently placed her fingers on her fair wrist, making Zhao Xin feel a faint warmth.

"You...cough..."

"I am rude and have offended the princess accidentally. I beg your forgiveness!"

Seeing Zhao Xin wake up, Pan Yuyin, who was concentrating on taking her pulse, was so frightened that her face suddenly changed. She knelt down hurriedly, with her head pressed tightly against the ground, not even daring to breathe.

The princess of the Song Dynasty, a relative of the emperor, a real daughter of a rich family. Even though Pan Yuyin was born into a wealthy family, it was the first time she had ever seen such a person in her life, and she had met him alone at such a close distance, so she was inevitably uneasy and at a loss.

"you……"

"Princess, don't panic. I'm here to heal you." Seeing Zhao Xin was upset, Pan Yuyin was worried that she might get angry, so she was no longer timid. While trying to comfort her, she trembled as she brought the cup of water to Zhao Xin's lips and carefully fed her a few sips of water. She then said, "I'm a friend of Brother Liu. He's outside the tent right now."

"Brother Liu?" The clear water in her throat sobered Zhao Xin up a bit, and her sleepy eyes gradually became clearer. "Are you talking about...looking for clothes?"

Hearing Zhao Xin addressing Liu Xunyi so affectionately, a hint of surprise flashed across Pan Yuyin's eyes.

Although Pan Yuyin had expected that Liu Xunyi and Zhao Xin had feelings for each other, she was surprised to see them calling each other by their names so openly.

"That's right." The abnormality was fleeting, and Pan Yuyin quickly returned to normal, "Princess, how do you feel now?"

"I feel dizzy and weak all over. Even in my sleep, I have unbearable palpitations..." Zhao Xin slowly sat up with the help of Pan Yuyin, leaning lazily on the edge of the bed, and said nonchalantly, "Miss, don't worry. I have seen many doctors, but they are all helpless for my illness."

"Princess, don't worry. You just overworked, which allowed the evil wind to sneak in. It's not a big deal." Pan Yuyin carefully observed Zhao Xin's exquisite facial features. Her tone was very gentle, but also firm.

Zhao Xin smiled slightly and shook her head weakly, "All the doctors say so, but... they just can't cure my illness."

"The evil wind entering the body is only an external symptom. In addition, the princess also has internal symptoms. The real reason why the princess has been ill for a long time is the internal symptoms hidden under the external symptoms. As the saying goes, 'external symptoms are easy to treat, but internal symptoms are difficult to cure'. If you can't find the root cause, no matter how many prescriptions you have, it will be useless."

"Oh?" Zhao Xin asked curiously, "I wonder what my internal illness is?"

"The princess shouldn't ask me this question. On the contrary, I should ask the princess." Pan Yuyin seemed to be afraid to look Zhao Xin in the eye, and said timidly, "I dare to prescribe a prescription for the princess. This prescription is different from other doctors' prescriptions. As for whether it is suitable for the disease, it is not my wishful thinking, but the princess's decision."

Pan Yuyin's uniqueness seemed to arouse Zhao Xin's great interest. She asked doubtfully, "What prescription? Write it down."

"This recipe has no medicine or guide, only two sentences."

"Which two sentences?"

"Heart disease can only be cured by heart medicine, and the one who tied the bell can only untie it."
