"Oh." Yun Zhui pursed his lips, "What should we do now?"
Xie Wanyun closed his eyes and said, "Don't worry about it."
Yan Suizhi was originally the adopted son of the Xie family, but after the Xie family encountered trouble, he defected to the family. In recent years, he has been highly favored by the emperor, and at a young age, he has been promoted to the position of Second Assistant in the Cabinet, enjoying unparalleled popularity.
In their previous lives, one of them was in the court and the other lived in seclusion in the inner palace, so they had little interaction.
Now that she has met him, although she hates him, there is no need for her to offend him.
"Okay." Yuzhui told the driver to take a detour.
The carriage suddenly shook.
"Madam!" As Yuzhui screamed, an arrow flew through the air and hit the wooden board of the carriage behind Xie Wanyun.
Xie Wanyun's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he suddenly remembered something.
In his previous life, Yan Suizhi encountered an assassin in the suburbs of Beijing and was seriously injured, which made his already weak body even worse and he died early.
Although Xie Wanyun lived deep in the inner house, the whole city was under martial law during that period and the assassin was being searched for, and even the Marquis' Mansion was affected.
So she knew about this, but she didn't know that Yan Suizhi was attacked near Jingye Temple.
"Madam, I will protect you, please leave quickly!" Yuzhui's little face was pale, but she still stood in front of Xie Wanyun.
"I can't leave."
Under Yuzhui's shocked gaze, Xie Wanyun pulled out a long sword from the carriage seat, lifted the curtain and walked out.
"Sir, please leave quickly."
Yan Suizhi's men lined up neatly in front of the carriage, desperately resisting the rain of arrows from all sides. Chen Zuo, the leader, clutched his longsword, clanging through the arrows fired from the darkness before turning back to look at the man who was heavily protecting them.
The man was surrounded by a crowd of black-armored guards. He was wearing a snow-white robe, which was not eye-catching. The cloud-like sleeves of the robe were embroidered with cold plum blossoms. His waist was tied with a brocade belt of the same color. He was wearing a snow-white fur coat. The fur coat was bright and magnificent, but no matter how extraordinary it was, it was not as stunning as his appearance.
It was a beautiful, fair face, but not at all feminine, as if the cold snow on the top of the mountain had melted into this person's brow.
Her black hair was like a waterfall, held back only by a white jade hairpin.
She was so stunningly beautiful, but her whole body was pale and frail, and her skin looked even whiter in the sunlight.
Surrounded by numerous dangers, the man looked fiercely at the carriage behind him that was filled with the most murderous intent.
"Who is it?" His voice was as cold as the wind that had quenched the snow.
Xie Wanyun stood in the carriage. Though unadorned, her hair was as black as ink and her skin was as white as snow. She wore a wide, dark blue robe, bound only by a thin belt around her slender waist. It was quite flimsy.
One hand was wrapped with Buddhist beads, and the other held a cold sword. The cold light reflected from the sword enveloped her, making the coldness between her brows even more intense.
"Lord Yan, how are you?" Her voice was hoarse and cold.
The moment Yan Suizhi saw this figure, the greed in his eyes almost surged wildly, but when he spoke, it all disappeared into the depths, leaving only a cool and calm expression, "Thank you, Madam. Long time no see."
The thin crimson lips slightly raised, forming a beautiful arc.
Logically speaking, Yan Suizhi should call her Madam Qin.
But Xie Wanyun didn't care.
"I will work together with you to break through."
Yan Suizhi's subordinates, who were already struggling to resist, looked extremely unhappy when they saw Xie Wanyun. Chen Zuo, who was standing in the front, opened his mouth and started to curse: "What are you, a woman, saying..."
Yan Suizhi raised his hand to stop him and said slowly, "She is the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo, and the only sister of General Xiaoyong and General Zhongwu."
