Cheng Yifei was serious and impulsive.

He held the military power, but he was also just a general. He had to at least have a legitimate reason to oppose Princess Huaining and protect this little medicine girl!

Gu Feiyan looked at Cheng Yifei and discovered that when his rebellious face became serious, it actually made people's hearts ache inexplicably.

This guy was quite cunning, why did he suddenly become so stupid?

Gu Feiyan whispered, "Cheng Yifei, forget it. I admit that I already found out that the prescription was fake. However, I did not mean to harm you, and I did not hide it from anyone. I only found out that there was something wrong with the prescription after the test, so I had no choice but to change the prescription secretly. I don't want to cause trouble, and you don't want to alarm the snake so easily. "

"As long as you admit to it!"

Cheng Yifei immediately grabbed her hand and was about to argue with Eunuch Xue, but Gu Feiyan stopped him with her other hand.

"Cheng Yifei, with the two of us making such a ruckus, there is no way Qi Yu could marry Princess Huaining. As long as the Qi family is not royalty, your two families will always be evenly matched. The situation is very good for you, so don't get yourself into trouble. In the name of the Cheng Army, against the justice courts, against the Tianyan’s laws, how do you expect the Emperor to see you? Do you truly want the Qi Family to seize upon your shortcoming? "

Hearing this, Cheng Yifei finally calmed down.

His handsome face, which had always been arrogant and wanton, was now taut with anger. His recent promise was still fresh in his ears, but there was nothing he could do when something happened to this little medicine girl. This feeling was the same as three years ago. He wanted to avenge his father, but there were a hundred and one thousand reasons why he wasn't allowed to do so.

"Cheng Yifei, since you'd bought me a meal, I'll tell you a secret."

Gu Feiyan whispered in his ear, "Eunuch Wu is an accomplice. You should investigate him. Take care! "

After she finished speaking, she let go of Cheng Yifei's hand and walked towards Eunuch Xue in large strides.

In the end, Cheng Yifei did not stop Eunuch Xue. Clenching his fist, he followed them in silence all the way to the entrance of the military camp, watching the horse carriage go into the distance. The soldiers in the army didn't know what was going on, but when they saw his undisturbed attitude, none of them dared to step forward to ask.

The back of the carriage had disappeared, but Cheng Yifei was still standing …

As the caravan sped away, Eunuch Xue rode a horse carriage by himself while Gu Feiyan rode alone. One in front, one in back. Both sides were protected by bodyguards. The carriage jolted, and it was only then that Gu Feiyan realized she had forgotten to take the medicine.

She would not have a chance to take medicine once she reached Princess Huaining’s place. She leaned against the side and closed her eyes to rest. She silently prayed that her body would be able to make it and endure it. She also prayed for the little Cauldron to recover quickly.

But gradually, she became cold. She was curled up, drowsy from the jolting of the carriage.

Suddenly, the carriage came to a halt as a guard shouted from outside, "There's an assassin!"

Assassin!

The same road, the same night, who was it?

Gu Feiyan woke up abruptly. Unlike last time, she was completely powerless and didn't even have the strength to lift the curtains, let alone jump out of the car to escape.

Hearing the fierce sound of weapons clashing against each other outside, she subconsciously held the small Cauldron tightly. Even though she knew it was unlikely, she still tried her best to concentrate on summoning the poison. Unfortunately, the more she tried to focus, the clearer the image of the masked assassin became in her mind.

She knew that it was most likely him!

Even now, she still couldn't understand why she didn't call out to Cheng Yifei when she saw him on the mountain.

Suddenly!

Another sword stabbed forward, right in front of Gu Feiyan, almost injuring her. Gu Feiyan was so scared that she forgot to dodge, but the sharp sword did not move forward any further. Instead, it swung to the left and right, shattering the heavy curtain.

From within the flying pieces of silk, Gu Feiyan was able to recognize the pair of eyes that were as black as midnight. They were deep and ice-cold, and could not be seen from a distance of a thousand miles. It really was him, the masked assassin. Behind him was a battle. This time he was not alone, he had brought a few masked helpers with him. With his abilities, he was more than enough to deal with these guards. Why did he bring so many helpers with him?

Gu Feiyan had no time to think about so much, so she was startled.

Jun Jiuchen's eyes darkened. He ruthlessly swings his long sword, and in an instant, the horse was hacked into halves. The huge sword energy sent Gu Feiyan flying.

"Ahh …"

Gu Feiyan screamed, thinking she was dead. However, Jun Jiuchen's figure suddenly flashed forward like a shadow, and wrapped his arms around her waist, and carried her to the side. Before the guards could regain their wits, he had already captured her and was running towards the forest with light steps.

This was … kidnapping? So he wasn't here to kill her?

Gu Feiyan no longer had the strength to think, and no longer had the strength to struggle. She could only allow Jun Jiuchen to hold her. She was originally hot all over, but after being blown by the icy cold mountain wind for a while, her entire body began to shiver. Gradually, her consciousness began to blur as she unconsciously hid in Jun Jiuchen's embrace, hoping to absorb a little bit of warmth. She simply couldn't care less about who he was.

Jun Jiuchen quickly discovered that something was wrong with Gu Feiyan. Last time, he had suffered greatly, but this time, he was on guard. Seeing that Gu Feiyan was not struggling, but she actually took the initiative to approached him? He was even more wary.

After confirming that there were no more pursuers behind him, he immediately wanted to push Gu Feiyan away, but before he could do anything, Gu Feiyan had already wrapped her arms around his waist, as if grabbing onto the last straw of hope.

A trace of disgust flashed through Jun Jiuchen's eyes. He didn't hesitate to throw her away. Gu Feiyan fell to the ground and curled up into a circle. Her eyes were closed, and her consciousness was somewhere between conscious and unconscious. Her small hands instinctively held tightly onto the small medicine cauldron.

Jun Jiuchen noticed the movement in her hand and said coldly, "No need to pretend."

Other than trembling, Gu Feiyan did not respond.

Jun Jiuchen approached her with large strides, looking down at her from above, and lightly kicked her with his foot.

However, Gu Feiyan remained indifferent.

Jun Jiuchen didn't hold back any longer. He stepped on her wrist to guard against her attacks, bent down, and grabbed the small cauldron.

So far, Gu Feiyan still had no reaction.

At the same time Jun Jiuchen was certain that there wasn't any poison in the little cauldron, he was also certain that this woman wasn't faking it. She was sick. He touched her forehead and hesitated for a long time before lifting her up and placing her on his shoulder. Only then did he stride into the forest.

Gu Feiyan had originally been unconscious, but as her head fell down, she regained some consciousness. She was completely unaware of her current situation and could only feel herself leaning against something warm. Her hands subconsciously reached out to touch Jun Jiuchen's back.

She touched Jun Jiuchen, who was striding forward like a meteor as he abruptly stopped in his tracks. A never before seen look of astonishment appeared in his eyes.

Gu Feiyan was still continuing, touching him, and her small hands came from his back all the way to the front, hugging him tightly. She was like a little sloth clinging to his straight back, greedily absorbing his temperature. She even muttered, "So warm, so comfortable …"
