"Your Highness! Your Highness is not good!" Chu Qiu ran in from outside in panic and headed straight towards Xu Yan. Xu Yan was awakened by Chu Qiu's voice and looked at the sky outside, but it was still a dull night.

At this time, Chu Qiu had already rushed to her side, her face full of panic. Xu Yan looked at her like this, and her heart suddenly jumped up wildly. She tried hard to suppress her inner anxiety and said, "What's wrong with Chu Qiu, what happened?"

Tears in early autumn rolled down instantly, and she said intermittently: "The spy wrote to you, Mr. Yun... is dead!"

Xu Yan lost all his strength in an instant, and his whole body collapsed instantly. But somehow, her mind was surprisingly awake at this moment. Xu Yan asked coldly, "Where is the spy? Let him come in and see me quickly!"

Chu Qiu rushed out of the room, and soon a man in black came to Xu Yan. He opened his mask on his face, and a blood-soaked face appeared in front of Xu Yan in an instant. Xu Yan seemed to have no feelings for his description, and stepped forward a few steps and stared at him with his eyes: "It was your news that Mr. Yun is dead?"

The man in black choked and said, "Yes, Your Highness. In fact, ten days ago, Mr. Yun was plotted by a traitor when he led us to charge. But Mr. Yun did not let us tell you that his subordinates were incompetent and could not report to His Highness as soon as possible. Please punish him!"

Xu Yan frowned tightly, but still had that serious expression on her face. She continued to ask, "Have you seen it with your own eyes? Did you see him dead with your own eyes, no longer breathing, and your heart no longer beating?"

The man in black was shocked by her series of questions and could not answer for a while. After a while, when he raised his head and touched Xu Yan's terrible eyes, he quickly explained: "My subordinates failed to enter Mr. Yun's room, but only heard the military doctor and his close confidants tell me the matter in great grief."

Xu Yan was only a little relieved when she heard his words. She looked at the spy who was still kneeling in front of her and said softly: "Go down." When the spy heard this, he looked up at Xu Yan, as if he didn't expect she would say such words to him.

But Xu Yan had turned around and walked behind the screen, obviously not wanting to talk about this with him. The spy was silent, but he could not say anything else and retreated silently.

Xu Yan calmly walked to the edge of the bed step by step, lay on the bed to cover the quilt. However, the crystal tears in her eyes still exposed her fragility at this moment. She opened her eyes and did not dare to fall asleep, hoping that this was just her dream. If she closed her eyes, would it still be like this when she opened her eyes again? She didn't dare, she didn't dare to close her eyes.

Yunqi, you said that you are happy and I want to stay with me for the rest of my life, how can you regret it? I am in the midst of the brink of heaven and earth. No matter where you go, I will definitely catch you back and let you fulfill your promise.

After Xu Yan thought of this, she kept comforting herself: It's okay. Didn't the spy who came back to report the news also said that he hadn't seen Yun Qi at all? Maybe this was Yun Qi's plan to confuse the traitors. Yes, it must be like this. She must not be confused by these things, she must wait here until he comes back.

But if this is a plan, Yunqi, then you are such a good method.

The next day, Chu Qiu came to dress up for Xu Yan with two swollen eyes. She kept secretly glanced at Xu Yan. Xu Yan had no expression on her face as usual. Seeing Chu Qiu's slow movements, she turned her head and smiled at her: "What's wrong, why are you stunned here?"

Chu Qiu looked at her like this, tears that had been shed for a night gushed out again at this moment. She sobbed and said, "Your Highness, don't do this. If you feel uncomfortable, just cry and don't hold it in your heart. I was afraid when I saw it."

Xu Yan turned his head and curled his smile: "Do you believe it? He is not dead. I know he will come back." As he said that, he inserted a camellia into himself. Then he continued as if he was unintentionally: "I know he will come back, so I am not worried at all."

Chu Qiu didn't dare to say anything else. Seeing Xu Yan's normal performance now, he felt panic in his heart. Is Your Highness really as calm as she showed on the surface? She didn't comment, but just continued the movements in her hand and said, "Yes, I believe it."

Xu Yan pretended not to notice Chu Qiu's trembling hands, changed the subject and said, "Have you packed up all the things?"

Chuqiu didn't expect Xu Yan would be in the mood to ask her about this at this time. She was stunned for a moment and replied, "I had already packed up the night before."

Xu Yan nodded and replied, "I didn't expect that your efficiency has improved a lot now."

Chu Qiu did not reply, but inserted the last beaded hairpin into Xu Yan's cloudy temples. Xu Yan touched the extremely gorgeous hairpin and said lightly: "Since you are all ready, then inform the Biyun Palace and prepare to set off."

Chu Qiu greeted him and said, "Yes." Then he retreated silently. Seeing Chu Qiu's figure disappearing in the long corridor behind the palace, Xu Yan finally closed his tired eyes and kept massaged his eyebrows with his fingers.

Hearing the sound of wind raising his sleeves behind him, Xu Yan did not stop and pressed the acupoint while asking the person behind him: "How is it, have you found out?"

The person behind him was He Xun. He clasped his fists and replied, "Your Highness is indeed a prophet. My subordinates rushed to Nanjun a week ago under His order. But when my subordinates got in, they found that the atmosphere in the army was particularly strange, so they decided to stay there and find out the strangeness behind this matter. But unexpectedly, within two days, the news of Mr. Yun being assassinated was heard."

When Xu Yan heard this, she frowned quietly and said, "According to your opinion, before the military doctor released the news of his death, no one in the army knew that he was injured, right?"

He Xun shook his head and explained, "No. When Mr. Yun led his troops to fight, he was caught in the sect of the thief in front of everyone, but then he stood up again as if nothing had happened. Therefore, he established a high prestige in the army with a small number of enemies."

"People in the military thought that he had just suffered skin trauma and would be fine after a few days of rest. But no one expected that the young man who was heroic on the battlefield would be declared dead in just a few days later, right?" Xu Yan quickly extended the story behind when he heard He Xun's words.

He Xun glanced at Xu Yan and nodded, agreeing with her speculation.

Xu Yan seemed to have expected it, and there was no big emotional fluctuation. She asked calmly: "So, what afterwards? Have you checked the body? Is that person Yun Zi'an?"

He Xun did not answer immediately, but looked at Xu Yan with some concern. Then he spoke: "Of course, I found a way to verify it right away, but that person is indeed Mr. Yun."

During the period when He Xun was silent, Xu Yan even hoped that he would not speak or say anything she could not accept. But on the other hand, she wanted to hear the answer in her heart from his mouth. The coffin was empty, or the person inside was not Yunqi at all. The moment he opened his lips, Xu Yan even felt a suffocation from his heart, which made her breathless.

When the words "It's certainly Mr. Yun, it's undoubtedly?", Xu Yan's eyes were only He Xun's mouth that was constantly opening and closing, and these words in his mind were infinitely reproduced.

"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!" Xu Yan suddenly covered his ears and yelled like crazy.

He Xun hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Xu Yan to confirm her situation, but was overthrown by Xu Yan.

Xu Yan's eyes were red, knocking everything in his sight to the ground, and kept chanting in his mouth: "Impossible, it must be a lie to me, it must be a lie to me!"
