Xie Xuan nodded in agreement.
Even if it were just for the lives and safety of the soldiers on the front lines, he would keep an eye on Yue Jingsheng.
Yun Chuwei was relieved to see that Xie Xuan had agreed.
Before long, the carriage stopped in front of the Marquis's residence.
After bidding farewell to Xie Xuan, Yun Chuwei entered the Marquis's residence.
At this moment, the prince's carriage also returned.
After Xie Sheng escorted Yun Lianhua into the mansion, he looked at Xie Xuan, who was standing to the side, and asked, "Brother Xuan, why are you here?"
Xie Xuan bowed before replying, "Your subject has come to see Miss Yun."
Xie Sheng frowned slightly, somewhat displeased: "What are you doing here looking for her?"
"Your Majesty, I am engaged to Miss Yun, so it is not surprising that I have come to see Yun Chuwei. But Your Majesty, Father has not approved your marriage to Miss Yun. It is not appropriate for you to take Miss Yun away," Xie Xuan said.
Xie Sheng's expression changed slightly, and he said seriously, "I will get Father Emperor's approval!"
Xie Xuan looked puzzled: "Your Majesty seems to be particularly kind to this Miss Yun. I wonder what the reason is?"
Xie Xuan had a vague idea of the reason, and he just wanted to confirm it.
"She is a very good person, and I will naturally treat her well!" Xie Sheng clearly did not want to reveal the reason, so he gave a perfunctory answer.
Xie Xuan looked at Xie Sheng and continued, "Your Majesty, you went to the rapeseed fields outside the city, didn't you?"
Xie Sheng looked coldly at Xie Xuan: "How did you know? Did you send someone to follow me?"
"Your Majesty is joking. I just saw that Miss Yun had a rapeseed flower in her hair, so I guessed!" Xie Xuan paused and continued, "Speaking of rapeseed fields, I remember when Your Majesty and I were being chased by assassins. Even when we escaped to a rapeseed field, we couldn't shake them off. In the end, it was a little girl who sent her guards to save us."
Xie Sheng recalled these past events, and his expression became somewhat complicated.
Xie Xuan suddenly seemed to have thought of something and said, "Your Majesty treats the Second Miss Yun so well, and even took her to see the rapeseed flowers. Could it be that the Second Miss Yun is the girl who saved us back then?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Sheng became alert.
He looked at Xie Xuan as if he were a thief: "Don't overthink it!"
Xie Xuan chuckled inwardly: "Does Your Majesty think I would compete with you? Rest assured, Your Majesty, since Father has already bestowed marriage upon me and Miss Yun, I will definitely marry Miss Yun. As for our benefactor, I just want to know if he is him or not, I have no other intentions."
Xie Sheng relaxed his guard a little when he saw Xie Xuan's sincere words.
He began, "Back then, the guards who saved me only said that their young lady had ordered them to act, without revealing whose young lady she was. I had to go to great lengths to confirm that those guards were Lian'er's. Therefore, I am certain that our savior is Lian'er."
Xie Xuan sneered inwardly, but did not show it on his face.
He said in a low voice, "So that's how it is. No wonder my brother treats the second young lady of the Yun family so well!"
Xie Sheng looked at Xie Xuan and continued, "I was the one who found her, and I will marry her and protect her for the rest of my life. If you want to repay my debt of gratitude, choose another way!"
After Xie Sheng finished speaking, he swung his hand and got into the carriage.
Xie Xuan watched Xie Sheng's carriage leave with a smile on her face.
He was in a pretty good mood at the moment.
No wonder Xie Sheng liked Yun Lianhua so much in both his previous and current lives; he had mistaken his benefactor for someone else!
Back then, when he and the Crown Prince were assassinated, they fled to that rapeseed field. He sprained his ankle and had to let the Crown Prince go first.
Just when he thought he was going to die, Yun Chuwei descended from the sky.
Those slender fingers gripped the soft sword, unleashing tremendous power. Before long, the assassin was brought down.
Xie Sheng mistook her for someone else because he didn't see Yun Chuwei, but only her guards.
He wouldn't mistake someone else because he had seen Yun Chuwei.
Yun Chuwei's small, heroic figure is still etched in her mind.
The reason he didn't mention Yun Chuwei at first was because he was afraid of causing trouble for her.
Now, Xie Sheng has mistaken Yun Lianhua for his savior.
He was even less likely to tell the truth.
He felt it was best not to let Yun Chuwei know about this.
In her previous life, Yun Chuwei loved Xie Sheng so much that she schemed for him in everything she did.
If Yun Chuwei knew that Xie Sheng had only gotten close to Yun Lianhua because he mistook her for someone else, perhaps she would have forgiven him.
He didn't want to see that happen.
He will definitely keep this to himself and not tell anyone!
-
Yun Chuwei knew that her so-called father, Yun Xian, would be back soon, but she didn't expect it to be so soon.
In the morning, before she had even gotten out of bed, Guiyan rushed in.
"Young Miss! Get up quickly, the Marquis is back!"
Yun Chuwei turned over and mumbled, "He's back, so why do you want me to get up?"
Upon hearing this, Guiyan said, "I heard that the Second Miss has already gone to pay her respects to the Marquis. I wonder what she said to him, because he is very angry and specifically requests to see you!"
Yun Chuwei made no move, but simply asked, "How did you know this information?"
Guiyan paused for a moment, then continued, "It was the Second Young Master who told me! The Marquis sent the Second Young Master to fetch you! The Second Young Master is still having tea in our side hall right now!"
Upon hearing this, Yun Chuwei got up.
She looked at Guiyan, somewhat puzzled, and asked, "You mean, my second brother is back too? And he told you about how angry my father was?"
Guiyan nodded seriously: "Yes, the Second Young Master also said that if you don't hurry up, the Marquis will be even angrier."
Yun Chu nodded slightly, then got up, washed, and changed her clothes.
Guiyan assumed Yun Chuwei was all dressed and ready to leave, but instead heard Yun Chuwei ask, "Is there breakfast? I'm starving!"
Guiyan nodded quickly and then said, "Yes, this servant will go and get some for Miss, so that Miss can have something to eat on the way?"
Yun Chuwei waved her hand: "Let's set up breakfast in the side hall. My second brother is here, so it's only right that I treat him to breakfast!"
Guiyan's lips twitched slightly.
Everyone says the Marquis is angry, yet the young lady remains so leisurely. If this gets back to the Marquis, he will surely be even angrier.
However, Guiyan didn't say much, but instead led her people to set up breakfast in the side hall.
Yun Chuwei arrived at the side hall and, sure enough, saw a man dressed in blue robes, exuding an air of scholarly refinement.
This person was her second brother, Yun Zheng.
Hearing footsteps, Yun Zheng looked up at Yun Chuwei.
Yun Chuwei nodded to Yun Zheng, then sat down at the table and began to eat leisurely.
