Chapter 55: Autumn Wind Mistake (4) It turns out that everything you do is...
If it wasn't the man next to Xie Yun, then who else could it be?
A vague idea began to take shape in Liu Shijun's mind. She couldn't contain her joy and excitement, her hands trembling slightly with excitement. Her womanly intuition told her that she would gain something special today.
"Go quickly and get someone to inform General Yan that his wife is unwell." Liu Shijun tightly grasped her maid's hand, "You must bring General Yan here, quickly!"
She wanted to see what Xie Yun was up to!
If she could catch something, Liu Shijun would feel infinitely happy, as if she had redeemed herself from the loss she'd suffered that day. If nothing happened, she'd see Xie Yun decocting some medicine and assumed she was unwell, so she'd gone to call Yan Huinan out of concern, without causing any trouble for herself.
It was just an accidental mistake. Can you blame her for that?
Liu Shijun couldn't help laughing. This seemed like another kind of victory for her!

It would take about an hour to boil the medicine. If she was not in the audience for too long, it might arouse suspicion. Xie Yun waited for a while and asked Han Zhen to watch while she returned to show her face.
By the way, she told the princess that she was a little bored in the audience and wanted to go get some fresh air nearby. Since the last birthday banquet, the princess knew that Xie Yun disliked these boring banquets and didn't like gossiping with these noble ladies, so she didn't stop her.
Xie Yun and Fei Jing went to the place where the medicine was boiled. The hunting ground was halfway up the mountain, and the audience seats were located in the sunny area. They took advantage of the terrain to build an extended terrace.
This place is actually in the dense forest halfway up the mountain, surrounded by tall trees and lush vegetation.
When they were about to reach her, Fei Jing suddenly stretched out his hand to block Xie Yun, "Someone is coming."
Xie Yun stood still and looked around. After a while, accompanied by the sound of fallen leaves being trampled, a figure slowly emerged from behind a tree in the distance.
The man was wearing the clothes of a Daliang envoy and a black round gauze hat. He walked forward a few steps, raised his head, and revealed the handsome and elegant face under the brim of the hat, which Xie Yun was very familiar with.
They also walked a difficult road together.
"The Third Prince?" Xie Yun couldn't help but look at Lou Cheng who was walking towards her calmly with some surprise.
How dare he? He was now practically stepping into the Great Zhou's encirclement. According to Fei Jing, Lou Cheng had the best chance of ascending the throne among the princes. If he were captured by Yan Huinan, all his efforts would be in vain.
Xie Yun cautiously took a step back, and Fei Jing subconsciously protected her behind him. She asked warily, "What are you doing here?"
Lou Cheng was as gentle as before, and his voice was harmless. He smiled softly, but this smile faintly revealed deep fatigue. "How are you, Yun'er?"
Xie Yun didn't say anything, still looking at him warily.
Lou Cheng: "Yun'er, we are not enemies, right? You don't have to be so afraid of me. I will never hurt you at any time."
Xie Yun was not in the mood to reminisce about the past. "So, what do you want to do here?"
Lou Cheng laughed dumbly, suppressing the corner of his mouth helplessly, and stepped closer to Xie Yun: "I just want to take you home. Yun'er, I'm almost there, will you come back with me?"
Xie Yun was still wary of him and retreated little by little.
Lou Cheng knew he couldn't get any closer, so he helplessly spread his hands to show that he had no hostility. "Yun'er, we should have been husband and wife. But you're so afraid of me now... I don't know how to make you believe me. I won't hurt you. Everything I do now is for our future. I know you've always wanted to go to Jiangnan. Is it for Madam Yu?"
He hit the nail on the head and hit Xie Yun's heart. In fact, he knew that this was not surprising.
Madam Yu died when they fled to Daliang. Xie Yun broke down and cried, but had to be taken away from Jiangnan by Xie Qingyun.
Lou Cheng was by her side at that time.
He had seen her broken, so he could speak with precision now.
Lou Cheng continued, his tone sincere and pleading: "As long as you are willing to go back with me, whether you want to go to Jiangnan or become a doctor, I will agree to it. You can do whatever you want, okay?"
"Yun'er, we've also walked a difficult road together. I know your difficulties and your feelings for Madam Yu. I hope you can be free and happy. But Yan Huinan doesn't understand you." Lou Cheng's eyes revealed infinite heartache, "As long as I know what you want, I can give it to you."
Xie Yun was a little hesitant.
The only thing she wanted was freedom, to be able to go to Jiangnan to see Madam Yu.
If Lou Cheng is willing to give her...
She was somewhat lost, her eyes filled with sorrow and sadness. Her life was meaningless. If it weren't for her obsession with Madam Yu, Xie Yun could hardly imagine how long she could have persisted.
Lou Cheng saw Xie Yun's pain and entanglement, "Yun'er... come back with me, okay?"
He approached slowly, and Fei Jing wanted to stop him, but Lou Cheng's eyes were full of sincerity, indicating to Fei Jing that he had no ill intentions.
Fei Jing's biggest wish is that Xie Yun can do what she wants.
He didn't quite understand the relationship between men and women. He knew how Lou Cheng treated Xie Yun and Xie Run, and he had never hurt them. Before Xie Qingyun wanted to marry Xie Yun to Lou Cheng, Xie Yun and her brother were even friends with Lou Cheng.
During the moment Xie Yun was stunned, Lou Cheng approached Xie Yun step by step. He slowly took Xie Yun's hand and whispered, "Yun'er, everything was too hasty before. I never revealed my inner thoughts to you. In fact, many years ago, I fell in love with you after a quick encounter on Zhuque Street. At that time, I had nothing and knew I was not worthy of being close to you... But there has never been anyone else in my heart."
"Yun'er, you are the only one in my heart from the beginning to the end. I am working hard and I hope to give you all the good things." Lou Cheng gently pulled Xie Yun into his arms, "I only want you to be my queen."
Hearing this, Xie Yun, who had been dazed by the previous words, suddenly came to her senses. She realized what Lou Cheng had just said, that he was willing to let her do whatever she wanted. The ultimate goal was his last sentence.
She struggled hard to push Lou Cheng away, but Lou Cheng used some strength to hold her tightly in his arms, "Yun'er, only I can give you everything you want. Yan Huinan can't do it. He has fallen from the altar of pride and favor. His heart is full of hatred. Have you ever thought about how much you occupy in his heart? He hates your father and your Xie family so much, how could he really treat you sincerely?! Don't let your imagination run wild. If he really loves and respects you, why can Madam Yu's grave only be moved by Fei Jing? You have never visited her once, right? Can Yan Huinan understand your pain?!"
Lou Cheng growled in pain, "He won't! Yun'er, don't be silly! I promise you, I will give you everything you want. Come with me... okay? I know you don't like Xie Shaohua, I won't let her hinder you, nor will I let her hurt you in the slightest. Don't push me away, okay?"
Xie Yun was hugged too tightly by Lou Cheng, and she could hardly breathe. "Flying Mirror..."
But before Xie Yun could finish her words and break free from Lou Cheng, everything happened so suddenly.
"Catch him for me!" An extremely angry shout suddenly came.
Xie Yun looked over in the direction of the sound, and behind a tree not far away, she saw Yan Huinan, who was as furious as a lion.
This scene made Xie Yun feel inexplicably nervous. For some reason, as if she had made some mistake, the moment she saw Yan Huinan, Xie Yun's heart seemed to be suspended in the air, weak and limp.
Lou Cheng also reacted quickly. He did not let go of Xie Yun, but held her hand tightly and held her firmly to his side.
Of course he would not come empty-handed. Having learned from the lesson of the last head-on confrontation, Lou Cheng came well prepared this time.
The moment the army led by Yan Huinan rushed out, an army with numbers and momentum that was no less than theirs rushed out from behind Lou Cheng.
Each one was fully armed and fearless, like a long-awaited eagle, ready to take flight. They were soldiers carefully selected and trained by Lou Cheng, and they were no less powerful than Yan Huinan's army.
It was the first time Xie Yun saw Yan Huinan in such a terrifying state, and her eyes turned red. She couldn't help but feel scared in her heart.
Fei Jing knew that Xie Yun was unwilling to go with Lou Cheng, so he instantly drew the sword from his waist and attacked Lou Cheng.
Lou Cheng had been on guard against Fei Jing. The moment he drew his sword, he also hugged Xie Yun in his arms, turned around, and took Xie Yun to avoid Fei Jing's attack.
Fei Jing's previous attack was just a feint. Taking advantage of the moment when Lou Cheng dodged, Fei Jing quickly reached out and tried to pull Xie Yun over.
But just when Fei Jing's hand was about to touch Xie Yun, a long spear filled with power nimbly snaked under his arm, and with full force it was lifted upwards, and Fei Jing's hand was opened.
The moment it opened, Fei Jing's hand moved as fast as the wind and aimed at Lou Cheng's chin.
Kill two birds with one stone!
Fei Jing came back to his senses and looked over to see Yan Huinan staring at him with eyes as ferocious as a beast in the dark night.
In fact, Fei Jing is a few years older than Yan Huinan, but he couldn't help but be frightened by Yan Huinan's fierce look.
Lou Cheng was caught off guard and was punched. Fei Jing's hand quickly clenched into a fist before hitting Lou Cheng's chin, and after hitting his chin, it hit his nose.
Lou Cheng's nose was bleeding.
When Yan Huinanfei dismounted from his horse, he stepped down and hit Lou Cheng's shoulder, knocking him to the ground.
In an instant, Yan Huinan took back Xie Yun at a speed that was difficult for ordinary people to see, and held Xie Yun tightly in front of him.
At this moment, Yan Huinan was like a frightened beast. No matter who it was, as long as they wanted to touch Xie Yun, they would be hated equally by him.
Before Xie Yun could react, Yan Huinan held her in front of him.
As Yan Huinan led her to retreat, the soldiers who were originally standing behind Yan Huinan swarmed out and rushed in the opposite direction of them.
"kill!"
Yan Huinan's lips curved into a straight line as he led Xie Yun back to where he had originally appeared. Only then did he, with red eyes and a voice filled with despair and self-mockery, "So everything you've done during this time was to deceive me."
