When Yun Chuwei regained consciousness, she found herself lying in bed, with Xie Xuan sitting beside her.

Seeing that she was awake, Xie Xuan asked, "How are you feeling?"

Yun Chuwei smiled slightly: "It's alright! How long have I been asleep?"

"Two hours!" Xie Xuan reached out and helped her up, placing a cushion behind her back.

Yun Chuwei remembered that Nineteen was being resuscitated before she fainted, so she asked, "Where's Nineteen? How is she?"

"That guard who was shot with an arrow? He's fine, he won't die!" Xie Xuan replied.

Yun Chuwei breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

Xie Xuan brought over the medicine that had been prepared beforehand and said, "Drink your medicine first!"

Yun Chuwei's lips twitched slightly: "Can I not drink it?"

Xie Xuan shook her head and refused: "No way!"

Yun Chuwei: ...

"I need to wash up first!"

"I want to eat first!"

...

She made all sorts of excuses to delay.

"The returning geese are all ready!"

Xie Xuan actually brought over the hot water for washing up and the food.

Yun Chuwei: ...

In the end, Yun Chuwei couldn't refuse. Seeing Xie Xuan bring the medicine to her lips with a small spoon, she ate it anyway.

She silently ate the candied fruit that Xie Xuan fed her.

After Yun Chuwei finished drinking the medicine, Xie Xuan asked, "What exactly is wrong with your body?"

Yun Chuwei didn't hide anything and said directly, "Revealing heavenly secrets will result in a backlash."

Xie Xuan frowned slightly, then continued to ask, "How to treat it?"

Yun Chuwei shook her head: "It can't be cured! Actually, drinking this medicine is useless!"

Xie Xuan stared intently, somewhat disbelieving: "Really?"

He felt that Yun Chuwei was not afraid of anything except taking medicine.

He reasonably suspected that Yun Chuwei said that in order to avoid taking the medicine.

Yun Chuwei sighed helplessly, "Should I swear an oath with my Dao heart?"

Xie Xuan immediately waved his hand: "No need! I'm just a little confused. In... my dream, you weren't this weak!"

In his past life, he also often kept an eye on Yun Chuwei.

He never saw Yun Chuwei faint.

Yun Chuwei shook her head slightly and said, "I don't know either. Is it because I rarely use martial arts in your dreams?"

Yun Chuwei rarely used martial arts in her previous life.

Another reason is probably her engagement to Xie Sheng.

Xie Sheng is, after all, the crown prince. Although he is weak, he certainly carries the aura of an emperor.

That imperial aura was beneficial to her health. That's why she only fainted occasionally in her previous life.

After hearing Yun Chuwei's words, Xie Xuan couldn't help but recall the situation in his previous life.

It has to be said that in his previous life, he really didn't see Yun Chuwei make any moves.

"I'm sorry!" Xie Xuan suddenly said.

In her previous life, she was engaged to the crown prince and was able to avoid using force.

She was engaged to him in this life, but she often fainted.

Yun Chuwei's eyes were full of confusion: "Why are you apologizing?"

Xie Xuan didn't mention the previous life, but said in a low voice, "If I had come faster, perhaps you wouldn't have had to fight them!"

Yun Chuwei chuckled, "If anyone's to blame, it's Xie Sheng and his ilk for being shameless. Why would you be blamed?"

As Yun Chuwei spoke, she seemed to remember something. She sat up, leaned closer to Xie Xuan, and lowered her voice to say, "There's a question I've always wanted to ask you."

Xie Xuan's heart skipped a beat when he saw the woman suddenly lean closer.

He could feel the woman's warm breath brushing against his hair, and he could also feel her unique fragrance lingering around his nose.

His back stiffened slightly, and his voice was hoarse and low: "Speak!"

"How is your relationship with the Crown Prince?" Yun Chuwei asked Xie Xuan.

Upon hearing this, certain images flashed through Xie Xuan's mind; his eyes were deep, and a chill seemed to emanate from his body.

After a moment, he finally spoke, "Not good."

Yun Chu raised an eyebrow slightly.

In my memory, Xie Xuan and the Crown Prince had frequent contact in his previous life, and they could be described as being friendly and respectful to each other.

After being reborn, they seem to be rarely seen together anymore.

"As you saw today, I'm afraid the Crown Prince and I will be irreconcilable enemies from now on! If I were to fight him, would you side with me or with His Highness the Crown Prince?" Yun Chuwei asked directly.

Xie Xuan was stunned.

He didn't expect Yun Chuwei to ask such a question directly.

Hearing this question made him think a lot.

First, he knew that the Crown Prince had attacked Yun Chuwei because he had mistaken her for his benefactor.

If the Crown Prince knew that the person who saved them was Yun Chuwei, his attitude towards Yun Chuwei would definitely change drastically.

Will Yun Chuwei and the Crown Prince still be on opposing sides then?

Furthermore, he is currently unable to verify matters from his previous life.

However, he felt that the most likely scenario was that Yun Chuwei had pushed him into an abyss of no return for the sake of the Crown Prince. Did he really want to stand with Yun Chuwei?

Seeing that he didn't speak, Yun Chuwei frowned slightly, then took a step back and said, "It's fine if you don't stand on my side, but you can't help him. I hope you won't help anyone and will choose to stand by."

After Yun Chuwei finished speaking, she stood up and walked outside.

Xie Xuan quickly stood up: "Where are you going?"

“Go see my so-called father. Maybe I should have a talk with him!” Yun Chuwei said.

Xie Xuan stepped forward and said, "I'll go with you!"

"No need, you probably still have things to take care of, right?" Yun Chuwei said.

Xie Xuan remained silent. There was indeed still some work to be done regarding Yue Jingsheng's matter.

If everything goes smoothly, the case of Yue Jingsheng embezzling military funds will be a done deal.

But he was worried about Yun Chuwei...

Yun Chuwei smiled at Xie Xuan and said, "Go ahead, I'm fine!"

After saying that, Yun Chuwei continued walking forward.

Xie Xuan suddenly spoke up and called out to her.

"Yun Chuwei!"

Yun Chuwei turned her head slightly, looking at that tall and slender figure: "What's wrong?"

Xie Xuan's beautiful face was full of seriousness: "If you're not lying to me, then I'll always stand by your side!"

If she hadn't harmed him in their past life, he would have fully supported her in whatever she wanted to do.

If she lies to him, he will drag her down to hell.

After Xie Xuan finished speaking, he turned and left.

Yun Chuwei understood Xie Xuan's meaning and couldn't help but smile.

"How silly! How can you verify things from your past life?" she said with a light laugh.

-

Yun Chuwei stepped out of her courtyard and saw Huo Qingjue.

She hadn't expected that Huo Qingjue would personally guard this courtyard.

Upon seeing Yun Chuwei, he breathed a huge sigh of relief: "It's good that you're awake! I was worried you wouldn't wake up!"

Yun Chu smiled and said, "It's not that serious. You don't need to come and guard it yourself!"

Huo Qingjue said earnestly, "If anything happens to you, His Majesty might execute me. So, I'd better guard you myself! Where are you going?"

Yun Chuwei told Yun Xian that she was going to see him.

Huo Qingjue said seriously, "I'll go with you!"

Yun Chuwei waved her hand: "There's something I need you to do for me!"
