C54 Xiao Huan Didn't Look like a Good Person

After Lady Lu left, Yunshu looked at the pair of crabapple hairpins that had been coincidentally placed on the dressing table. She crossed her arms over her chest and paced back and forth a few times. Then she sat back down at the table with her hands on her cheeks and sighed.

Standing at the side, it could be said that he was tired of her worried expression, so he suddenly said, "Perhaps the prince will listen to Miss Yin's suggestion."

Yun Shu sneered, "How is that possible, I am only a captive."

"Actually, I wanted to say it earlier …" The Prince did not treat the young lady as a prisoner. If the young lady is really a prisoner, she should be in the carriage right now. "

Qiao Qiao's words made her freeze: "Seems to be the same... Your prince wouldn't have really taken a fancy to my archery, would he? "Actually, there are plenty of people with better archery skills than me. Can you tell your prince to let me go, I won't be able to stay here forever …"

Before he could say anything, a familiar male voice came from outside the door, "Why can't I stay in the beam my whole life? There are some things in the Yan Kingdom that I, Dazhuang, have as well, and even more. Furthermore, if others were to find out that a woman like you had entered the army, there would probably be no one in Yan State who could save your life, right? They might even implicate the nine clans. Even so, you want to go back? " While she was speaking, Xiao Heng had already walked into her room with Little Treasure in his arms from the Qin Province.

Yun Shu raised her head to look at him. "I'll think of a way to cover this matter up eventually."

Xiao Heng shook his head and sat down to pour himself a cup of hot tea. "How to cover it up? If it was that easy to cover it up, then why did this king know you were a woman?"

Yun Shu was awakened by his words, and immediately asked: "So how did you know?"

However, the first reaction of the other party was to nearly spit out the tea that had just entered his mouth. When he swallowed it, he even coughed a few times, "Cough!" "How do I know that's not important? The important thing is that someone already knows your identity, and it will be very difficult for you to hide that from the people in Yan Country's military camp. How can you guarantee that when we return to the Yan Army's camp, I won't secretly send them any news?"

Indeed, Xiao Heng did not seem like a good person.

Yun Shu nodded her head in agreement. "But why do you want me to stay in the Great Liang?"

Hearing her question, Xiao Heng smiled and shook his head slightly. "I am not staying in the Great Liang, but by this prince's side."

Yun Zhui frowned. "What do you mean by 'stay by your side'?"

"This King's manor is missing a steward. If you want to. "

Steward? Yun Shu's first reaction was that perhaps Xiao Heng's brain had gone crazy and had taken a fancy to her … The second reaction was, what about my father's last wish? Then, she suddenly thought about it. Just as Xiao Heng had said, if she were to return to the Kingdom of Yan now, she would only be facing a dead end. Going back would have no meaning.

In that case, he might as well accept the offer. After all, it was not easy to start a new life alone in a foreign country with different cultural practices.

"I can accept your offer, but I want to ask you something first."

"Excuse me."

"Are you really planning to report to the Emperor of the Dazhuang that General Ao did not catch him because of his poor search?"

Xiao Heng nodded his head, "What?"

"Why?"

"There has to be someone responsible for this. Our king is sometimes a very disgraceful person."

"That's it?" She had never heard of Emperor Daliang before, but she immediately thought of the monarch of their kingdom.

"That's it."

Yun Shu shook her head with a puzzled smile: "Xiao Heng, you obviously shouldn't have done that."

"But you have to do this... Did Madam Lu tell you something when she brought you the things? "

Yun Shu looked at him, not knowing how to reply. However, Xiao Heng immediately turned his head to Xiang Fu, who was at the side and immediately told him what had happened.

In the end, Xiao Heng put down the teacup in his hand that he had been holding for a long time, and said: "Actually, when Orchon wanted to search you, it was this king who asked Madam Lu to help. In conclusion, this should be the favor this king owes. Forget it, this king will ask for General Ao's help. If Lady Lu comes to you later, you can tell her so. At this time, it's time for the kitchen to bring the dishes over. With that, he stood up and prepared to leave.

Yun Shu did not expect that she would be able to deal with the matter that Madam Lu had requested of her so easily. She could not help but nod her head in disbelief. After nodding her head, she grabbed onto the part where Xiao Heng's words had left her.

Xiao Heng smiled helplessly and removed her hand from his sleeve, "The only woman who dares to keep calling this duke 'you', other than this duke's deceased mother, is you. However, This King did not know it from that time, but from the first time I saw you. " As he said those last words, Xiao Heng's eyes flickered a bit, as if he was a bit embarrassed.

However, Yun Shu really did not understand what was so embarrassing about him.

Before she could get ready to go to bed, Lady Lu came. After she told Madam Lu what Xiao Heng had said, the worry on Madam Lu's face dissipated somewhat. She held her hand and expressed her thanks several times. Yunshu felt that it was none of her business if Xiao Hengheng agreed to help Och, so she felt ashamed of Lady Lu's gratitude. Fortunately, the old woman who took care of Lady Lu soon found someone to take her away.

Early the next morning, just after she had finished washing up, she heard that a soldier had rushed into the general's mansion with a letter in his hand. Then she saw, through the window, that Orch had left through the garden with a large group of soldiers. Before she could ask what had happened, Xiao Heng had entered her room with Qin Prefecture and pulled her out as soon as he saw her.

Yun Shu: "What happened?"

"The Yan Army has blocked the west gate and south gate. Your general is currently guarding the south gate with a letter that is said to be written by the late emperor himself. General Ao wants to make a meritorious service, so he went to negotiate with your general. We will leave for Enoch first." Saying this, Xiao Heng turned his head and looked at her as if he thought of something. "You aren't thinking of taking advantage of this opportunity to run back home, right? I told you yesterday, even if you … "

"I'm not stupid. If I run back, I will die. It took me so much effort to retrieve my life. How could I want to die in such a meaningless manner?"

Xiao Heng gave her a deep look before turning his head, "That's good. But what did you mean when you said that your life was' retrieved '? "

"I was fed the Soul Stealing Pill for three days."

Xiao Heng's footsteps clearly halted for a moment. When he turned his head to look at her again, his eyes were filled with incredulity. "What did you say?"

"Just three days of Soul Seizing Pill, what kind of strategist forced me to eat it. He looks quite handsome …" Speaking of this matter, Yun Shu's tone was filled with dissatisfaction.

After listening to her, Xiao Heng's handsome face turned completely black. "That bastard He Ziheng … Are you sure you consumed the Three Day Soul Seizing Pill? No one has ever survived a meal like that. "

"How could I be mistaken? It was probably because someone injured me after I took the medicine and made me spit out a lot of poisonous blood. Afterwards, I was treated in time, so I survived …"

Xiao Heng nodded, "That's possible."

The four of them and Cat did not leave the manor through the main entrance. Instead, they walked directly to the back entrance of the manor where two carriages were waiting for them. Madam Lu was one step ahead of them and had already arrived at the back door. She was supporting a pale-faced, middle-aged woman onto the carriage behind them. The sickly woman should be the first wife that she had never seen.

After the first wife entered the carriage, Madam Lu turned and bowed towards Xiao Heng. Then, she smiled at Yun Shu and got into the carriage with the support of the old lady.

Xiao Heng received Little Treasure from the Qin Province whose eyes were narrowed like they were in a deep slumber. He brought Yun Shu to the carriage in front of them, and the Qin Province drove a carriage for each of them, leaving the General's Estate in the direction of the furious northern gate.

Just as the carriage was about to turn left towards the north, a sudden gust of wind blew open the curtain on the right side of the window. She subconsciously turned her head to look out of the window, but didn't expect that the soldiers could see the handsome figure sitting on horseback outside the slowly opening gate.

They would probably never see each other again. However, this might be the best outcome for them … Pei Hongqing's words were ambiguous to her, but he had never clearly expressed his feelings for her. As long as she was in the Yan Kingdom, she still wished to follow her father's wishes and marry Yin Ze, so that her father's soul could rest in peace.
