After a few days of travel, they returned to Yuanzhou. The main reason for their return was that Yu Yanlin wanted to take away the ashes of the brothers who had been through thick and thin with him and bring them back to the capital.

Beili arrived in Yuanzhou early and had already arranged everything and booked an inn early.

Everyone got off the carriage, and Yu Guiwan said, "Dad, let's rest for a night and leave early tomorrow morning." As she said that, she went to push Yu Yanlin's wheelchair. Yu Yanlin's mood had improved a lot in these days.

"Brother, their ashes are in the backyard. Do you want to go over there?"

"it is good."

Yu Guiwan pushed the wheelchair to the backyard.

Yu Yanlin took a deep breath, suppressing the bitterness, and said, "Awan, I want to stay with them for a while."

"Okay, then I'll call my brother when we have dinner later." Yu Guiwan pushed him aside, glanced at Yu Yanlin, and then left the backyard.

When Yu Guiwan came back, Xie Sui and Yu Wang were sitting together drinking tea and chatting. Seeing her come back, Yu Wang asked, "How is your brother?" He spoke worriedly.

Yu Wang had discussed this with Yu Yanlin a lot these days, but the results were still unsatisfactory. As a military commander, he understood how important a general's hands and legs were.

Yu Guiwan shook his head and said, "Brother said he wanted to be alone for a while. Father, you don't have to worry too much about him. I believe he will cheer up soon."

Sometimes, hatred can cheer a person up.

The real person behind the scenes has not been found yet, and she believes that her brother's condition must be temporary.

……

After dinner, everyone returned to their respective rooms to rest. Ever since they slept on the same pillow when they last left the capital, they had not avoided each other for the past few days.

Xie Sui washed up early and went to bed. At this time, he was leaning against the headboard reading a book, but Yu Guiwan was still sitting at the table beside him for a long time. Xie Sui saw that she was still not coming over and her mind was no longer on the book.

His eyes fell on Yu Guiwan from time to time. Although Yu Guiwan didn't look at Xie Sui, Xie Sui's eyes didn't want her to discover that it was impossible.

"Is Your Highness really reading a book?" Yu Guiwan curled the corners of his mouth and asked knowingly.

Xie Sui, whose thoughts were exposed, glanced around and spoke after a while, "Of course I'm reading." He paused here, "On the contrary, Ah Wan, it's getting late, why don't you come over to rest?"

Xie Sui looked straight at Yu Guiwan, his gaze lingering on her.

"Cough." She coughed lightly.

Yu Guiwan turned her head away and didn't look at Xie Sui's eyes. She felt that Xie Sui's eyes seemed to be inviting her.

Thinking of this, a blush crept up her ears.

"I'm waiting for someone." Yu Guiwan quickly changed the subject.

"Ok?"

Xie Sui's eyes moved slightly, and his eyes darkened. He said jealously: "Who do you want to wait for Ah Wan at this late hour?"

Yu Guiwan suppressed a smile and straightened his expression before explaining, "It was someone close to my brother. The last time I went to the border with the young marquis, I saw him next to Zhuang Feilu. That's why I was sure that my brother was in Yuanzhou."

Hearing this, Xie Sui's expression eased a little, "Then how can Ah Wan be sure that he will come here?"

"If I'm not mistaken, if he deliberately appeared in front of me last time to remind me, then he will definitely show up." Yu Guiwan had met the people around her brother, so she could never believe that they would betray her brother.

As soon as she finished speaking, Bei Chu's voice rang out from outside the room, "Prince, Princess, someone has entered Master Yu's room. Do you want me to go in and arrest them?"

Yu Guiwan frowned, stood up, and said in a slightly anxious tone, "I'd better go and take a look myself." Yu Guiwan looked a little worried. Now that her brother had no martial arts skills, she was worried.

"With Beichu and the others here, there's no need for you to go there yourself."

At some point, Xie Sui had already reached Yu Guiwan's side, taking her hand and walking towards the bed.

She frowned and was about to say something when she heard Xie Sui speak again, "Ah Wan said that as long as he comes, he won't betray your brother. If he betrays, he won't dare to come."

"So you don't have to worry about it. Just go to bed early."

"That's fine."

Yu Guiwan was persuaded by Xie Sui. She still believed in the strength of Xie Sui's secret guards. If they couldn't defeat one person, then there was no need for her to work with Xie Sui anymore.

Yu Guiwan couldn't help shaking his head as he lay on the bed.

Sure enough, beauty can be misleading.

Xie Sui turned off the lights in the house and said to Bei Chu, who was waiting outside for news, "Protect Master Yu. If anything happens, arrest him."

"Yes."

Bei Chu retreated.

Yu Yanlin couldn't sleep these days. He was afraid that his father and A Wan would worry about him, so he read until midnight every night. Only when he felt sleepy could he sleep for two hours.

Sudden.

A figure rushed in. When he saw Yu Yan, the man was obviously stunned for a moment, hiding the heartache and grief in his eyes. Although he had heard a lot of rumors about the young marshal, he didn't expect that the young marshal was much more seriously injured than he knew.

Then the man knelt in front of Yu Yanlin and said, "This subordinate greets the young commander."

"He An, you're here." There was no surprise in Yu Yanlin's eyes. A Wan had mentioned to him that she had met He An. He and A Wan had the same idea. He also didn't believe that He An would betray him.

Now it seems that he was not wrong about the person.

"Awan told me that he had seen you with Zhuang Feilu, so he guessed that you would come today."

Tan Hean lowered his head in self-blame, his eyes turning red. "Young Marshal, it was my fault that I failed to protect you, causing you to suffer so much in prison. I must not feign betrayal and lurk around Zhuang Feilu."

"Now that Zhuang Feilu is gone, we still have Xiao Yan."

The hatred in Tan Hean's eyes reached its peak, not only for the young marshal, but also for revenge for his dead brothers.

"He An, you have to think it over carefully. It's not too late for you to regret it before tomorrow morning." Yu Yanlin also wanted to avenge his dead brother like him, but now he was just a useless man and could do nothing.

Besides, it is not an easy task to ambush Xiao Yan. He An’s situation is too dangerous if he goes there this time.

"I have no regrets. Young Marshal, please wait for my news." Tan He'an had figured it out long ago. Now that he was lying in ambush beside Xiao Yan, he might be able to get more important news.

"Since you have made up your mind, I won't try to persuade you any further." Yu Yanlin understood his thoughts very well. If he were in his place, he would do the same, so he didn't try to persuade him any further.

"Then I, Yu Yanlin, will serve tea instead of wine today. He An, take care."

Yu Yanlin raised his teacup.

"Young Marshal, take care."

Tan Hean also raised his teacup, drank it all, then climbed out the window and completely disappeared from Yu Yanlin's sight.
