Across Time And Space 95 A Bad Feeling

"What are you thinking about?" Mingyue grabbed her husband's arm and hugged it tightly.

"I'm worried."

Mingyue glanced towards the prince's courtyard, and then she looked at Yang Yun's face. She knew that the Emperor had commanded both Yang Yun and Vice General Fei Liu to guard both the Princess Lingchen and Prince Lu Wei well.

"What are you worried about?" Mingyue asked. "The Prince will recover soon. You don't trust my ability?"

Yang Yun faced her with a small smile on his face. "How can it be? If my wife said he would recover, then, the prince will recover." He touched Mingyue's chin and pulled her lightly for a kiss.

"Don't worry too much," Mingyue said after a while. "With you and Vice General Fei Liu here, nothing would happen. Besides, didn't my brother arranged this trip well? No one would be able to guess that the Princess is here with Prince Lu Wei."

"You are right," Yang Yun pulled his wife into his embrace and patted her soft hair. When Mingyue could not see his expression, Yang Yun turned to look towards the prince's courtyard again. His eyes darkened with various thought going through his mind.

The first time Yang Yun saw Prince Lu Wei at the welcoming banquet, Yang Yun could not help but feel that the Prince looked somewhat familiar. Looking at the Prince's body and posture, he knew that the prince was someone who practiced martial arts frequently. However, after observing the prince for a while, Yang Yun could not figure out when or where he had last seen the Prince.

Yang Yun had a feeling that something terrible was going to happen during the Spring Hunt. When they rescued Prince Lu Wei in the hunting ground, Yang Yun's suspicion around the Prince arose again. He was worried that the Prince might self orchestrated to harm himself to get closer to the Crown Princess with an evil intention.

However, the Prince had done nothing to harm Princess Lingchen so far. From the wound on the Prince's stomach, Yang Yun could not deny that a wild animal indeed attacked the Prince. The Prince's life was in danger if the princess' group did not stumble upon him. He could die without Mingyue's treatment. Even with this knowledge, it did not stop Yang Yun from being wary around the Prince.

After days past by, the anxious feeling Yang Yun had inside him does not fade away. Instead, it only grew stronger. Yang Yun did not know what was bothering him. He only knew that he did not like this feeling.

The next morning, the uneasiness in Yang Yun's heart intensified. Because of this, Yang Yun went to inspect the guards and horses countless of times, and even the guards were starting to get anxious.

"What is wrong with you?" Vice General Fei Liu asked after he caught up with Yang Yun. Fei Liu glanced at the soldiers who greeted him and nodded.

"Vice General, what do you mean? What is wrong with me?" Yang Yun asked. His expression showed his puzzlement.

Fei Liu watched the young man's face briefly before he spoke again. "You're going back and forth checking this and that. I know that you wanted to ensure the Princess and Prince's safety, but you're making everyone else anxious with your action. Tell me. What is it?"

Yang Yun took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. "Nothing. I guess. I am just too worried." He subconsciously touched his heard. "Just that, I have a bad feeling that something might happen."

Fei Liu patted Yang Yun on his shoulder. The Vice General was also worried over this trip back to the capital city. But acting as Yang Yun did will not help anything.

"We have done everything we can to ensure the Crown Princess and Prince's safety," Vice General Fei Liu said. "A few of our men are scouting the route back. The route is clear. The weather is looking good. Stop worrying too much. Or you might jinx it."

Yang Yun forced a smile. "I understand."

"Now get ready. We will depart to the capital city once Her Highness is ready."
