Ye Chuyan woke up with a warning.
She met Pei Xiuyan's red eyes, looked at Xi Zhou confusedly, and suddenly understood in her heart that she was not dead.
Pei Xiuyan and Shi Lu brought people to rescue her.
Ye Chuyan didn't know whether to be happy or sad for a moment.
The sad thing is that she will continue to suffer a life while she is alive, but the happy thing is that she was saved, and so was Wu Mu.
She secretly took a deep breath, controlled herself not to look at Wu Mu, bit her lip, hugged Pei Xiuyan's waist, pressed her face against his heart, and sobbed: "Ace, I'm so scared, I'm scared Never see you again."
Pei Xiuyan held her tightly in his arms and comforted her softly: "Ayan, I'm here."
Ye Chuyan felt the strong smell of blood on Pei Xiuyan's body. When he lowered his head, he saw that Pei Xiuyan's robe was soaked with blood. He held his hand and saw that all ten fingers were rotten and his flesh and blood were covered in mud. It was shocking.
She took Pei Xiuyan's hand and said in shock: "A Ce, your hand?"
Shi Lu coughed slightly and explained: "Princess, in order to save you, the prince personally led people to dig the soil with his hands, and that's why he hurt his hand."
Hearing this, Ye Chuyan hugged Pei Xiuyan tightly again, rested her chin on his shoulder, her eyes were red, and she kept murmuring, "Ace, Ace..."
These few words were like a magic spell that calmed down Pei Xiuyan's anger when he saw Wu Mu just now.
He picked up Ye Chuyan with his backhand and jumped out of the pit. "Let's go, I'll take you home."
When he jumped out of the ground, he accidentally glanced at Wu Mu. This glance was sharp and murderous.
Wu Mu just stood on the ground blankly, his hands hidden in his sleeves clenched into fists, and his fingertips were trembling.
She came out alive, just as she had thought beforehand, she and her husband were affectionate and affectionate.
As a complete outsider, I could only look up at them here, watching Pei Xiuyan holding her farther and farther away.
Ye Chuyan noticed that when Pei Xiuyan jumped out just now, he looked at Wu Mu with a look full of unkindness.
The Wu family is just an imperial merchant with no real power, but Pei Xiuyan is the most powerful person in Dafeng except the emperor. Pei Xiuyan has always been very possessive, and she must not let Pei Xiuyan misunderstand or hold a grudge against Wu Mu.
Before Pei Xiuyan questioned herself, she had to suppress all of Pei Xiuyan's suspicions.
She hooked Pei Xiuyan's neck and said angrily: "Ace, did you know? Vice General Zhang drugged the water I drank. When I was caught and brought up the mountain, all my skills were gone."
"Fortunately, I met the fifth master in the disguise of Young Master Wu. He helped me cover up the past, otherwise I would have been bullied by these bandits. Just now down below, in order to repay his favor, I gave up all my skills. Him."
"By the way, Young Master Wu went up the mountain to find the Wu family's robbed jewelry. It was also because of the jewelry that he and I were surrounded by Sirius and buried underground. The Wu family's jewelry was in the cave that was bombed."
The meaning of Ye Chuyan's words was very clear.
First: I was almost plotted by Zhang Jing.
Second: Wu Mu went up the mountain for the jewelry. It was just a coincidence that she met Wu Mu. As long as she dug out the Wu family jewelry in the cave, everything would be clear.
Third: I and Wu Mu only have a cooperative relationship. In order to repay Wu Mu's favor, I have given him all my inner strength. There is no other relationship.
Pei Xiuyan's footsteps paused.
Wu Mu is at a young age. Can he really remain indifferent to Ye Chuyan, who has lost all his skills after being drugged? He remembered clearly the scene where Wu Mu wanted to kiss Ye Chuyan just now.
Ye Chuyan has always been proud of her kung fu skills. After passing it on to Wu Mu, she will become a woman with no strength.
If Ye Chuyan repays Wu Mu's favor, there are many ways. After he comes out alive, he can help fight for more rights and interests for the Wu family. Why should he pass all his skills to Wu Mu?
If he were one step late today, Ye Chuyan would definitely die.
How important is Wu Mu in Ye Chuyan's heart?
Will retribution come so quickly? While he was being plotted by Zhao Yujiao, his wife was also having an affair with another man.
Pei Xiuyan's thoughts were in a mess, and his hands and feet were cold.
Ye Chuyan saw that Pei Xiuyan was still and the cold air around her body was getting heavier and heavier, and the alarm bells rang in her heart.
Pretending to be innocent, he said: "Ace, what's wrong with you? Don't you understand why I want to give all my power to Young Master Wu?"
Pei Xiuyan's deep eyes stared at Ye Chuyan's face, "Why?"
Ye Chuyan pressed her face tightly against Pei Xiuyan's heart, preventing Pei Xiuyan from seeing the fluctuations in her eyes.
"A Ce, except for you, I don't want to get entangled with anyone. I'm so afraid of owing others a favor, so I'll use all my skills to repay Young Master Wu's favor."
She suddenly paused, with a blush on her face, and said shyly: "And I believe in you! I believe you will definitely come to save me. I believe that with you, it doesn't matter even if I don't have the power to restrain the chicken, you will definitely Protect me, right?"
After saying that, she rubbed her face against Pei Xiuyan's chin to adjust her mood, and then looked at Pei Xiuyan with clear eyes, sincerely looking forward to Pei Xiuyan's response.
Pei Xiuyan saw his own reflection in Ye Chuyan's eyes. Other than that, there was no impurity. Her eyes were so clean.
He felt a little guilty about what happened to him just now. Just because Zhao Yujiao plotted against her, do you also doubt Ayan?
She has been in love with him for thirteen years now, how could she be tempted by Wu Mu? No, I'm overthinking it.
Pei Xiuyan suppressed the coldness all over his body and smiled at Ye Chuyan.
"Of course, as long as I'm here, you won't be harmed in any way. Leave Zhang Jing and the bandits on the mountain to me. You can rest peacefully."
Seeing that Pei Xiuyan believed in her, Ye Chuyan felt relieved, and she briefly told Pei Xiuyan about the gunpowder in the back mountain.
Pei Xiuyan listened thoughtfully. If these gunpowder were used on the battlefield, he would have a better chance of winning when he attacks Beirong in July.
After talking about the gunpowder, Ye Chuyan could no longer hold on and fell into a drowsy sleep.
At this moment, Yan Xiu brought someone over and saw Pei Xiuyan holding the sleeping Ye Chuyan. He froze for a moment, but quickly returned to normal and stood aside without speaking.
Pei Xiuyan frowned slightly when he saw this, "Is something wrong?"
Yan Che nodded.
Pei Xiuyan found a nearby house, placed Ye Chuyan inside, and called thirty secret guards to guard around the house. He repeatedly warned that if anything went wrong with Ye Chuyan, all these secret guards would come to see him.
After arranging everything, he followed Yan Che and left in a hurry.
As soon as he went out, Yan Qi said: "Sirius and a group of bandits tried to escape by jumping into the secret passage in the back mountain, but they were discovered by our people. The other bandits were all killed by us, except Sirius."
"Master Shi wanted to take Sirius back to Kyoto to interrogate the origin of the gunpowder. However, Sirius started talking nonsense. I was worried that it would have a bad impact, so I asked Master Shi to temporarily lock up Sirius alone."
Pei Xiuyan glanced at Yan Xi and said in an unhappy tone, "Speak clearly! What's the bad influence?"
Yan Tiao hurriedly lowered his head, "It's about the princess... Your lord, you'd better go and see for yourself."
Pei Xiuyan's nameless fire came up instantly, and he quickly followed Yan Qi to the room where Tian Lang was detained.
Shi Lu led a group of officers and soldiers to guard the door of the room where Tian Lang was imprisoned. When he saw Pei Xiuyan approaching, he was about to go up and salute, but Pei Xiuyan, who was cold all over, pushed the door open and went in without looking away.
Just as Shi Lu was about to follow him, Yan Qi caught him and said, "Master Shi, the prince wants to personally interrogate Tianlang about gunpowder, so I hope you won't disturb him."
Shi Lu struggled twice, but to no avail, so he gave up and gave Yan Che a stern look.
Yan Chi stood at the door like a door god and stared at everyone.
Entering the house, Pei Xiuyan saw Sirius lying on the ground, his whole body trapped by arm-thick iron chains, unable to move.
He was injured somewhere on his body, blood was everywhere, and his clothes were all soaked in water. The smell of blood and water mixed together, giving off an unpleasant smell.
He stepped on Sirius's face and said coldly: "Tell me! Where did the gunpowder in the back mountain come from?"
Sirius licked his lips, not timid at all, and laughed twice.
"I guess you are King Pei Xiuyan of the Qing Dynasty, right?"
When he was captured just now, he learned from the discussions of these officers and soldiers that Pei Xiuyan and Shi Lu attacked the mountain together, and that the woman who was captured on the mountain was Pei Xiuyan's princess, and that the fifth head of the family was the young master of the Wu family.
The man in front of him was handsome, cold and arrogant, with a pressure that made people surrender. He had a completely different temperament from the Shi Lu he had just seen. He must be the rumored King Pei Xiuyan of the Qing Dynasty.
Pei Xiuyan did not answer Tian Lang's words, but moved his strength slightly on his feet and looked at Tian Lang sideways.
"Tell me the source of the gunpowder, or I will crush your skull."
