Because things were urgent, Yiyang City was already in danger and could be breached at any time. Anything could happen at that time, and even Liu Xiu, as the main general, would be the focus of the court's pursuit. Since Han Yu had made a plan, he would not let Liu Xiu get into trouble. He had to rush over before that. After hurriedly discussing with the Yue family, he took Su Wenyue's packed gifts and prepared to set off.
Even though she had explained everything she needed to, Su Wenyue still chased after him to the gate: "You must come back alive no matter what."
"Don't worry, take care of yourself and the children at home and wait for me to come back." After Han Yu said this, he rode away without looking back, without any hesitation or stopping, because he knew that if he stopped, he would be even more reluctant to leave.
"Little sister, go in. It's cold outside and you're still weak. Don't catch a cold. My brother-in-law is brave and resourceful. He knows when to do things. Even if there is danger, he will turn it into safety. Take care of yourself and the children." Su Hengyi stood behind Su Wenyue at some point. Seeing that Su Wenyue was in a low mood, he comforted her. In fact, he was not sure whether Han Yu's trip would be smooth or whether he could come back safely. He was just comforting his sister.
Although Han Yu told Su Wenyue his general thoughts and plans, he only gave a rough idea. Su Hengyi knew more details, so he understood more clearly that no matter whether Han Yu could come back or not, he would definitely be injured. The best case scenario was not to be injured too seriously, or to suffer less injury, but given the current situation and Han Yu's situation, this was the only thing he could do.
Su Wenyue nodded, holding back the tears that had accumulated in her eyes, with a strong smile on her face: "Brother is right, my husband is not only brave and resourceful, but also lucky. What's more, my child and I are concerned about him. Even because of this, he will definitely return safely."
Su Hengyi had originally thought that his little sister would be sad and complain to him about her grievances, and he was ready to comfort her. However, it turned out that his little sister was stronger than he thought. However, looking at his little sister's strong and stubborn smile, Su Hengyi felt more and more distressed. His little sister had finally grown up and was able to shoulder the responsibilities of being a mistress.
"It's good that you have the confidence." Su Hengyi wanted to say something more, but in the end he only said this.
"Don't worry, big brother. Your sister has grown up now. She is no longer the naive little girl. She won't cry just because she is separated from her husband for a while. So don't think of laughing at me." Su Wenyue blinked and said playfully, as if the loneliness and worry just now did not exist. Instead, she looked like the naive little girl before she got married, which made Su Hengyi feel dazed and nostalgic for a moment.
"You girl, you really deserve a beating for looking at your big brother like that." Su Hengyi knew that his little sister didn't want to show her vulnerability in front of everyone, so he smiled and followed her wishes, gently tapping Su Wenyue's forehead a few times.
Su Wenyue deliberately made a few strange noises: "Brother, if you bully me, be careful that my husband will come back and avenge me!"
"Okay, I'm waiting, you little bitch, you think you can do whatever you want just because you're married. I'm always your big brother, so you have to listen to me!"
The brother and sister laughed and played for a while, which diluted their sadness and worry. Su Wenyue felt better and started to busy herself with her own things. Since she had agreed to stand by Han Yu through thick and thin, she should work harder.
It was only a matter of time before Yiyang City fell. Regardless of whether Han Yu's plan would succeed, they would have a difficult time. When Han Yu worked hard for the family and even risked his life to gain Liu Xiu's trust, she also wanted to do her best for the future of the family, and she had the ability to do so. Thinking of the series of arrangements she had made, which were originally a way out for herself, it was time to call Xiaoxi back. That girl had been clamoring to come back to her. She probably knew what had happened to her during this period, so she was anxious to come back. Su Wenyue knew Xiaoxi's thoughts very well.
A few days later, a flying horse stopped at the gate of Fengjiazhuang. On the horse was a woman dressed in a very androgynous style. She was probably dressed like this for convenience. Although she looked tired, she was very energetic, with a hint of excitement and impatience on her face.
"Who are you? How dare you trespass into Fengjiazhuang? Tell me your name!" Because they didn't know who this woman was, the guards at the gate of Fengjiazhuang stopped her.
The woman was not angry, but said hurriedly: "My name is Xiaoxi, I am General Han's wife's personal maid. I was ordered by my master to go out to do something, and now I'm called back by my master. You just go and report it quickly. My master must be waiting to see me!"
The doorman had been instructed from inside and when he learned that it was Xiaoxi, he verified her identity and immediately had someone take Xiaoxi into the inner courtyard to meet Su Wenyue.
"Xiao Xi, you are finally back!" Su Wenyue looked at Xiao Xi, her heart full of joy and excitement of reunion after a long separation. Xiao Xi's position in her heart was not just that of a trusted maid, but also that of a relative. She was the only comfort and touch she had in her previous life.
"Madam, I am glad to see you at last. When I heard about your accident, I was so scared that I wanted to come to see you immediately, but I was distracted by the things going on over there. I couldn't let your efforts go to waste and I couldn't let you down, so I couldn't come right away. Fortunately, I got the good news that you are fine later. God bless you." Xiaoxi said with tears and laughter. She was very excited to see Su Wenyue.
The same was true for Su Wenyue. The master and servant had not seen each other for a long time and had a lot to talk about, especially about the tasks that Su Wenyue had assigned to Xiaoxi.
"Madam, don't worry. How dare Xiaoxi betray your trust? I have done all the things you asked me to do. I have bought a farm in a remote and inconspicuous place, and hired reliable tenants to plant the crops we have prepared. Although there have been wars outside in recent years, the harvest is good. The farm has a bumper harvest and a large amount of grain has been stored. Grain is valuable now, more precious than anything else. Madam, you are so far-sighted. How much money can these grains be worth if they are sold? Oh, I forgot, money is not valuable now." Xiaoxi said excitedly, but without any selfish motives. She was just happy for Su Wenyue. Even though she had been running around for Su Wenyue all these years, she did not want to get any corresponding benefits.

Seeing Xiaoxi like this, Su Wenyue curled her lips and felt more relieved. No matter what time or how she changed, Xiaoxi was still the same Xiaoxi, and her loyalty to her had not changed at all. This was also the reason why she entrusted such an important matter to Xiaoxi, and of course it was also because Xiaoxi had the ability to do so.
