Qin Junhao just had to get closer to Xie Wanyun. He hadn't seen her for so many years, and he missed the lady too! After being glared at and squeezed by Yan Jinbai countless times, he finally got angry, "Jinbai, what do you mean? What's wrong with me talking to the lady? Why do you keep squeezing me?"
Xie Wanyun couldn't help laughing.
Yan Jinbai knew that he was in the wrong, but he was good at speaking and could make black into white, and could make unreasonable into reasonable. He even confused Qin Junhao, and since he couldn't beat him, he had to admit defeat reluctantly.
Several people were quarreling, and Xie Wanyun acted as a peacemaker, comforting one and coaxing the other. These young men who were like gods of death on the battlefield became little children who acted like spoiled brats and begged for love in front of her.
Before they knew it, they had returned to the Blue Moon Pass camp. As they entered the camp gate, they didn't see Yan Suizhi coming to greet them, but instead received shocking news.
The Cabinet Chief Huang Yanjing has arrived! Yan Suizhi was taken away by Huang Yanjing!
Yan Jinbai was furious! He jumped off his horse, grabbed the clerk, and asked, "What's going on? Why was Military Advisor Yan taken away?"
The clerk was grabbed by the collar and rolled his eyes. "General Xie, calm down for a moment. When General Liu sent troops to rescue you and Madam Xie, Elder Huang left with Military Advisor Yan. Yes, yes, yes."
Xie Wanyun's eyes narrowed, "What?"
"Someone reported that Military Advisor Yan was suspected of treason! That's why they rushed to bring him back for interrogation."
"This is absolutely impossible!" several people said in unison.
Liu Sheng was furious. He slammed his hand on the table and cursed, "I knew that when that old bastard Huang Yanjing came, it would be bad news! Rebellion? Military Advisor Yan has been in the Blue Moon Pass military camp. Where would he go to plot a rebellion? This is nonsense!"
Yan Jinbai turned and left.
"Stop! Where are you going?" Liu Sheng shouted.
"I have to rush back to Shangjing. After all, I still have the identity of Prince Rui. I will go and ask the emperor what is going on." Yan Jinbai was so angry that the veins on his neck popped out and his face was full of anger.
Arresting people without any evidence, just based on hearsay?
Qin Junhao shouted, "I'll go with you!"
Xie Silong immediately followed up, "And me!"
Yan Jinbai put his arms around the two men's shoulders and gave them a tight hug, "Good brothers!"
"Calm down first!" Liu Sheng said, "What's the point of rushing back so rashly? Aren't you afraid people will accuse you of being arrogant because of your military achievements and disrespecting the emperor?"
Several people were stunned when they heard it.
Xie Wanyun had recovered from his initial shock and panic. He said, "The Marshal is right. Let's all calm down. We must go back, but we need to think carefully about what to say first. The Emperor hates treason the most. If we use inappropriate words, it might backfire."
Liu Sheng nodded and said, "That's exactly what he said. That old scoundrel Huang Yanjing dared to come to Blue Moon Pass in person to arrest someone. He obviously has someone to rely on. It's a pity that I'm stationed at the Central Army and can't leave. Otherwise, I would definitely return to the capital with General Xie and his wife to meet the emperor and clear the military advisor of suspicion."
Liu Sheng was also a little surprised. Yan Jinbai was Yan Suizhi's nephew, so it was normal for him to be worried. But Madam Xie... the concern and anxiety she showed from the bottom of her heart could not be faked.
Between Madam Xie and Yan Jinbai, they are willing to risk their lives to save each other.
Mrs. Xie had lived alone for many years after divorcing her husband, and Yan Suizhi had never remarried. Could it be that these two...
They are a good match.
Marshal Liu couldn't help but gossip in his mind.
Xie Wanyun appeared calm, but inside he was tumbling like a frying pan. Treason was a serious crime punishable by the death of nine generations of the clan, an unforgivable offense. Once imprisoned, even the toughest man would be tormented. How could Yan Suizhi, with his overworked body, withstand this?
Huang Yanjing's mind was so vicious that in order to get himself out of this situation, he did not hesitate to drag Yan Suizhi into this serious crime.
Yan Suizhi had been courting disaster for many years, but he was ultimately harmed. However, he did this all for the sake of the Xie family.
Instantly, countless thoughts raced through her mind. Even as she feigned composure, her body was trembling slightly.
Yan Jinbai quietly held her hand, his eyes firm. He said silently, "Don't be afraid, mother."
