Faced with such tribulation, Su Yue’er’s face was ashen, devoid of all colour. Her entire body shook uncontrollably, and she could hardly believe that what was happening was true.
Seeing that everyone’s attention was not on her, she stealthily withdrew and turned to run!
Quickly, she disappeared into the cheering crowd.
The wild wind howled, and a violent rain poured down.
It was supposed to be the refreshing season of autumn, but the sudden rain poured abruptly.
Su Yue’er ran wildly along the street like a startled bird, frightened by any sound that ca from behind her.
She was as panicked as a lost dog, frightened all day long!
Vivid images of the recent events flashed before her eyes, and without her control, past mories began to surface. Suddenly, she started to weep and scream hysterically.
"Why, why? God, you’re so unfair! Haha, I’m not convinced! Heaven, ah... hehehe, hihihi, giggle..."
Her eyes were frantic, she giggled madly and stumbled toward the distance in a wild run.
She quickly disappeared into the wind and rain!
Afterwards, so people said they saw a madwoman in foreign villages who would only giggle stupidly, who looked exactly like Su Yue’er. Others claid they saw her fall off a cliff to her death, still others said they saw her run into the deep woods and get eaten by beasts...
From then on, Su Yue’er was never seen again.
At this mont, Qin Yi, Su Pan’er, and the others were welcod back into the county governnt office.
The mont they had a chance to rest, they imdiately sent for Doctor Cao to check on Su Pan’er’s unborn child. Luckily, the child was resilient, and despite the ordeal, it was still safely in Su Pan’er’s belly.
For safety, Doctor Cao suggested that Su Pan’er stay bedridden to ensure the Pregnancy Health.
After thoroughly discussing with Su Pan’er and weighing his options for a long ti, he only then prescribed two doses of a decoction to protect her child.
As Su Pan’er relaxed, she once again began to feel drowsy.
After the decoction was delivered, she managed to drink it before falling asleep.
Learning that the child in Su Pan’er’s belly was unhard, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They prepared a full table of good food and wine, laughed, and chatted happily.
Even Ye Han, who rarely smiled, had a slight smile at the corners of his mouth, showing that he was in a very good mood.
With a grateful face, Qin Yi said, "Great General, thank you for saving my wife Pan’er and . I, Qin Yi, owe you a debt of gratitude. The favor of saving our lives will never be forgotten!"
Having said that, he bowed to Ye Han.
As he began to bow, he was stopped by Ye Han!
"Brother Qin, why say such things? If it weren’t for you two saving , Ye Han, I would have long been a corpse. How could there be today’s ?"
Ye Han said seriously: "Besides, the calamity you two encountered this ti was indeed caused by , Ye Han. If it weren’t for the fact that you two risked your lives to save back then, neither of you would have had the misfortune of today."
"Of course, neither would you have received today’s rewards."
Jun Ruochen, who was standing nearby, laughed brightly, "The saying goes, every sip and bite is predestined. The reasons for the past led to today’s results. Let’s not argue over this. Let’s sit down and rest."
"Isn’t that the truth! Fortunately, Sister Pan’er is fine, otherwise... Hmph!"
Jun Ruoxue curled her lips and looked at Ye Han with a belly full of questions: "But, how did General Ye happen to arrive just in ti? If you had co a step later, it would have been unthinkable."
"There are hardly any coincidences in this world."
Ye Han’s eyes flashed a smile: "I received a letter from Brother Jun halfway and led a team of personal guards to hurry here day and night."
So, this was all related to Jun Ruochen!
Everyone’s gaze was focused on Jun Ruochen.
Jun Ruoxue stomped her foot: "Oh, you! Brother Chen, you’re so wicked, watching worry without saying a word, and even leading to misunderstand you, you are really..."
"You, you, with your impulsive temperant, I really don’t know what to say about you."
Jun Ruochen smiled and shook his head: "Did you not consider that Doctor Su and Mr. Qin have always been our friends? How could I stand by and watch them die in vain? Oh, you..."
"I was just worried..."
Jun Ruoxue was embarrassed for a while, and she simply ran off: "I, I will accompany Sister Pan’er."
Jun Ruochen helplessly shook his head and turned back to Ye Han to salute: "Great General, please forgive my younger sister. She is naive and often acts imprudently."
"It’s nothing," Ye Han said.
His eyes sparked: "This younger sister of yours, isn’t she the one designated by His Majesty many years ago..."
The smile on Jun Ruochen’s face suddenly beca bitter, and he silently nodded: "Yes."
Ye Han looked surprised, but understanding shone in his eyes, and he didn’t say anything else.
Jun Ruochen pondered for a mont, then once again called everyone: "Co, co, co! Today is a day of great joy. Let’s not talk about those trivial matters. Let’s drink!"
"Cheers!"
Everyone was overjoyed and once again began to drink heartily.
That night, everyone didn’t hurry ho, but instead stayed temporarily at the county governnt office.
Qin Yi had also been drinking, but he was not drunk.
Using the moonlight as clear as water, he washed and rinsed. Only after completely clearing the sll of alcohol did he return to his guest room.
In the guest room, Su Pan’er dreamt of the previous near-execution incident and slept restlessly.
In a daze, she heard Qin Yi’s call, and then she slowly opened her eyes.
Qin Yi raised his hand, affectionately stroked her face: "What’s the matter? Did you have another bad dream? You seed restless, do you want to call Doctor Cao again?"
"There’s no need, it was just about that previous incident," she said.
Su Pan’er sat up, propping her body, and playfully said: "Guess, what’s the difference between the dream and reality?"
"What is the difference?" Qin Yi asked.
He rubbed his stubbly chin teasingly on Su Pan’er’s face: "Could it be that in the dream I was not by your side?"
"That’s not it. I dreamt of Su Yue’er and Su Sikong."
Su Pan’er herself found it a bit amusing: "In the dream, Su Yue’er was laughing exaggeratedly, and Su Sikong was about to rush over with a big knife. I kicked him away, and just as I was about to deal with Su Yue’er, you woke up."
Qin Yi looked at her affectionately: "Don’t think about that anymore. This ti, they, father and daughter, definitely don’t have a chance to turn over a new leaf!"
Qin Yi couldn’t help but approach her, nibbled her lips for a while, and let her go panting heavily.
"Wang Qi and Wang Ba have committed a serious cri—an attempt to assassinate a mber of the royal family which is a capital offense. They will surely be executed along with their entire family. As for Su Sikong, with his prior cris and this new charge of collaboration, his fate depends on Great General Ye’s final verdict."
Su Pan’er naturally understood the crux of the matter and nodded slightly.
As the two of them were talking, there was suddenly a flurry of hurried footsteps outside.
Soon after this, there was a knock on the door: "Lord Qin, Mrs.Qin. Su Sikong has been assassinated and killed. Lord Jun invites you both to the main hall."
