After Ye Ningshuang left, Xu Heyun opened his eyes.
He leaned back on the recliner and stared blankly at the sky.
This trip to Jiangnan had made him a little tired.
He had never felt so tired even in the capital, which was a dangerous place.
The scenery in Jiangnan was good, and everyone lived and worked in peace and contentment.
However, this happiness was accumulated by the soldiers of Yan Bei who took the lead and sacrificed their lives.
Who in the world would know that there were nine out of ten houses in Yanzhou City, and the city was full of widows?
Without Yan Bei, the Imperial Dynasty of the Northern Barbarians would have long been defeated.
At that time, would the scenery of Jiangnan still be so good?
Xu Heyun felt sorry for Yan Bei.
Two generations of Yan Bei kings guarded the Central Plains, and 500,000 tombstones were erected on the back mountain of Yan Bei.
However, there were some people who spoke ill of the eldest daughter of the Xu family in order to gain fame and profit.
In order to win the favor and goodwill of those who hated Xu Xiao in the imperial court, he had to target a weak woman like this?
Why?
What did Big Sister do wrong?
Qingzhou values profit, Suzhou values reputation.
The Jiangnan Taoist priest praised,"Where righteousness lies, death is heavier than Mount Tai."”
Then for the so-called "righteousness" that you all speak of, go and die.
He spoke of benevolence, righteousness, and morality, but he did disgusting things.
How could such a scholar be called a scholar?
Could it be that he still expected such a person to govern the country in the future?
There was no such thing as justice in the world against a widow who had done nothing wrong.
A true scholar was one who established his heart for heaven and earth, established his life for the people, inherited the teachings of the past saints, and created peace for all generations.
He didn't need to rely on slandering and framing a woman to seek a future.
Xu Heyun suppressed his emotions and opened his eyes.
"Men."
A man in black appeared in the dark and knelt in front of Xu Heyun.
"Prepare two letters. One will be sent back to Yan Bei, telling Xu Xiao about the Jiangnan Road and letting him know what happened.”
"The second letter, quickly send it to the capital. I, Xu Heyun, beg for forgiveness. I request to be stripped of my rank as a general and grounded after returning to Yan Bei.”
He had sent a letter to the capital so that his father-in-law would be able to get by.
After all, he had taken away his beloved daughter, so he still had to give her some face.
Of course, there was another reason. It was not a good time to start a war with Liang.
It was fine for children to fool around, but they must not be ignorant of right and wrong.
It was unwise to challenge Liang's bottom line again and again.
"Yes, sir."
After receiving the order, the spy in black did not leave immediately. Instead, he knelt on the spot and hesitated to speak.
"Speak."
"The Great General has sent a message, asking Young Master to return to Yan before the end of the year.”
Xu Heyun waved his hand and said softly,""Got it."
For the entire afternoon, Xu Heyun sat alone in a daze.
In the middle, the elder sister and Yuan Jingming came to visit once, but they were both persuaded by Ye Ningshuang to leave.
He sat there quietly.
Because every time he saw the scene in front of him, he wondered if it was a dream.
It was like a dream.
There was a sense of alienation between reality and a dream.
He felt that he was redundant and should not exist in this world.
These thoughts had always been in his mind, but he had suppressed them.
Until today, when the young scholar's " why?" triggered his inner emotions.
He also wanted to ask why so many people from Yan Bei had to die.
Why do you people who live and work in peace and contentment have to poke at Yan Bei's backbone?
"Hey, Xu, are you going to be a god if you don't eat?”
Xu Heyun heard a familiar voice and looked at Li Fengya.
Li Fengya stood not far from Xu Heyun with her hands on her hips, her nose almost pointing to the sky.
Xu Heyun smiled and said,"I don't know if I'm a god or not, but I'm definitely going to be your husband."”
"Are you worried that Imperial Father will blame you for today's murder?”
Sui Zhu took the stool from the servant and sat beside Xu Heyun.
"Surnamed Xu, don't be afraid. This princess has already written a letter to tell Imperial Father what happened.”
"Those people are indeed despicable and deserve to be killed.”
"You're so thoughtful."
Xu Heyun smiled as he looked at Sui Zhu, who looked like she was asking for credit.
Sui Zhu didn't expect Xu He Yun to only say that he was considerate.
"Xu, you're just saying that you're thoughtful?”
Li Fengya angrily grabbed Xu Heyun's sleeve and questioned him.
Xu Heyun hummed lightly and ignored Li Fengya's temper, letting her hold his sleeve.
Li Fengya saw that Xu Heyun was ignoring her and not even looking at her. Instead, his eyes were fixed on the moon hanging high in the sky.
Li Fengya also felt bored and a little disappointed.
He decided to stop tugging at Xu Heyun's sleeve.
"Hey, Xu, why are you looking at the moon?”
"I want to hold your hand and watch the moon grow gentle." Xu Heyun replied casually.”
Hearing this, Li Fengya froze on the spot.
She did not expect Xu He Yun to say such a thing.
What a lecher.
She actually wanted to take advantage of him.
But why was her heart beating so fast?
Her cheeks seemed to be a little hot.
Li Fengya slowly moved her small hand closer to Xu Heyun's big hand.
Then, she mustered up her courage and held Xu Heyun's hand.
Xu Heyun was jolted awake by the movement in his hands.
He turned his head and glanced at Sui Zhu.
Li Fengya's cheeks were flushed red. She sat on the chair and looked at the moon in the sky like Xu Heyun.
