Xie Xuan pulled the person into his arms and asked in a low voice, "How do you feel?"
Yun Chuwei leaned against Xie Xuan, slightly out of breath: "I can't muster any strength."
"Anything else?" Xie Xuan asked in a low voice.
Yun Chuwei leaned against Xie Xuan's head and gently shook it.
To Xie Xuan, her action appeared both obedient and gentle.
He rarely saw Yun Chuwei like this. His heart stirred slightly, and he picked her up in his arms, as if sighing, "Yun Chuwei, when will you stop being so stubborn?"
Yun Chuwei seemed to sigh as well, and whispered in his arms, "You might not believe it, but if it were the old me, even if these three little minions attacked me together, they wouldn't even be able to touch the hem of my clothes."
"I believe you!" Xie Xuan replied gently.
"Huh?" Yun Chuwei didn't react for a moment.
She was just changing the subject.
She hadn't expected this person to be so serious.
As Xie Xuan carried Yun Chuwei away from the crowd, he whispered, "Yun Chuwei, it's not like I haven't seen the old you before. Of course I believe you."
How could he not know that he was so unrestrained, so full of youthful vigor and ambition?
In his previous life, the last image in his mind before he died was of her descending from the sky and saving him.
If he had never seen her like that, why would he have felt such a complex mix of love and hate for her?
Yun Chuwei raised her head and looked at Xie Xuan, only to see that his eyes were vacant, as if he was lost in memories.
She sighed softly, then lowered her head and said nothing more.
-
Xie Xuan sent someone to inform the old lady of the Yun family and He Ning, and then sent Yun Chuwei back home directly.
Because he frequently visited the Marquis's residence, everyone was used to seeing him carrying Yun Chuwei into the mansion.
When they arrived at Yun Chuwei's courtyard, Guiyan started making a racket again, and then hurriedly went to prepare hot water for Yun Chuwei to bathe.
Xie Xuan laid Yun Chuwei down on the soft couch and said in a low voice, "It's really hard to believe that you can tolerate such a maid!"
He was always amazed.
Yun Chu smiled and said softly, "She's not bad at all!"
Xie Xuan smiled but didn't say anything more.
"You should go back first!" Yun Chuwei said.
Xie Xuan nodded slightly, covered her with the blanket, and then turned and walked towards the door.
Standing at the doorway, he turned around and looked at Yun Chuwei.
Yun Chuwei did not understand.
"I think I forgot to tell you something?" Xie Xuan suddenly asked.
"What's up?"
You look especially beautiful today!
The clothes and headdress were things I'd never seen before, and although they were a bit disheveled, they still looked good.
Yun Chuwei hadn't expected that what he was talking about so seriously was actually this kind of thing.
She smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness!"
Xie Xuan felt a slight tremor in his heart. He didn't know why, but every time he heard her gently call him Prince Xuan, he felt a little unbearable.
He pointed to the door, indicating that he was leaving, and then hurriedly departed.
Soon, Guiyan helped Yun Chuwei to take a bath.
When she lay back down on the soft couch, she saw Old Madam Yun and He Ning hurrying in.
-
Upon receiving Xie Xuan's message, Madam Yun and He Ning hurriedly left the palace and returned to their residence, heading straight for Yun Chuwei's room.
The two breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Yun Chuwei was alright.
At this moment, Yun Chuwei was covered with a blanket and leaning against the table.
When she saw the two of them, she wanted to get up and pay her respects, but was stopped by Old Madam Yun.
"Lie down properly. The doctor said you need to rest!" He Ning said.
Upon hearing this, Yun Chuwei leaned back quietly without moving.
Madam Yun sat down beside her and took her hand: "What happened? I saw His Majesty mobilized the Imperial Guards to the inner palace. That little maid from the Cui family said you were summoned away by the Fifth Princess. What exactly happened?"
Yun Chuwei said in a low voice, "This is a long story. The main thing is that the Empress and the Crown Prince wanted to plot against me, to make me have sex with the Crown Prince so that I could marry him..."
Upon hearing this, the old lady was so angry that she cursed, "Are the Empress and the Crown Prince out of their minds? They were the ones who refused the marriage in the first place, and now they're the ones causing trouble. Do they really think our Marquis's mansion is easy to bully?"
He Ning was shocked to hear his mother-in-law scolding the Empress and the Crown Prince like that.
She tried to stop them, but it was too late.
She asked Yun Chuwei gently, "And then?"
Yun Chuwei didn't hide anything and told her everything.
"Why is Yun Xian everywhere? Can't he just stay out of this?" The old lady gritted her teeth in anger upon hearing this, then added, "Luckily, His Highness Prince Xuan arrived in time to save you, otherwise, I don't know what I would have done! You'd better thank him properly later!"
He Ning nodded, clearly agreeing with what the old lady said.
Yun Chu smiled and said, "I will thank him properly. But, don't you have any opinions about Yun Xian's matter?"
He Ning asked seriously, "Will Yun Xian's situation affect you? Wouldn't it be terrible if he caused you trouble?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Chuwei couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't worry, this matter has nothing to do with me. Or rather, even if they know that I did it, there's nothing they can do. It's just that Yun Xian..."
She did tell the old lady that Yunxian couldn't be saved.
The old lady was probably mentally prepared, so nothing bad should happen.
However, she never told He Ning about this, and didn't know what He Ning thought.
