Only Yuwen Haoxuan with a tense face and Xuechun weeping softly were left in the room. Xixian was still in a coma, her face flushed red and pale at times, moaning in pain from time to time.

For a long time, Yuwen Haoxuan said faintly, "You go out too." Xuechun had no choice but to obey orders even though she was unwilling in her heart, and turned her head reluctantly while walking.

The room was quiet for an instant, Yuwen Haoxuan looked at the pale Xi Xian quietly, a hint of worry appeared in his dark bottomless eyes, the sky gradually turned dark, Yuwen Haoxuan sat in front of the bed without moving.

Xuechun walked into the inner room with the decoction, and when she saw Yuwen Haoxuan in front of the bed, her footsteps stopped, she blinked vigorously, and when she looked up again, the scene was the same as when she left, Xuechun thought that it must have been dizziness just now Oh, she actually saw the emperor crying?

Xuechun put down the soup and medicine, and stood in the room for a while, but Yuwen Haoxuan never said a word, didn't even raise his eyes, Xuechun felt that it was unnecessary, so he retreated to the door, turned and walked out.

The room fell into silence again, and after a long time, a faint sigh came from Yuwen Haoxuan's mouth. At this moment, the majesty of the king in his body had already faded away, leaving a melancholy look on his face.

On the bed, Xixian opened her mouth, her eyes rolled slightly, as if she was about to wake up, Yuwen Haoxuan finally let go of her tense face, tested her body temperature and called Xuechun into the room, but he was busy Everyone left silently.

Xixian's illness was that she didn't get out of bed for several days. The doctor only said that it was depression, but Xuechun couldn't understand what she was worrying about?Several times I couldn't help but want to ask, but every time I saw Xi Xian's sleepy expression, I couldn't bear to make her sad anymore.

Liu Maolin would come several times a day to check on Xi Xian's condition, asking about everything from diet and daily life to mood changes, but Yuwen Haoxuan hadn't appeared in the past few days, and Xi Xian didn't bother to ask him about his affairs , often sent Liu Maolin away with just a few perfunctory words, and after a few days, even Xuechun felt that there seemed to be some problems between her and the emperor.

In the afternoon, Xuechun pinched his nose with one hand and held a bowl of black soup with the other. When he walked into the inner room, he saw Xixian sitting in front of the dressing table with hairpins. Xuechun put down the bowl in his hand and took The jewelry on the dressing table was compared on Xi Xian's head one by one.

"The princess has been ill for so many days, and today she is finally in the mood to dress up."

Xi Xian just smiled indifferently, shook her head at all the jewelry Xuechun picked up, and finally picked a light green one among the colorful silk velvet flowers and put it in her hair.

Xuechun looked at Xi Xian in the mirror and said, "Princess looks beautiful and looks good with everything. It's so hot outside now, and the princess feels much cooler when she dresses up like this."

Xi Xian didn't taunt Xuechun like usual, she just stared blankly at her face in the mirror, got up after a long time and said, "It's a bit cold in the room, let's go for a walk on the street."

"The servant girl will go and tell Eunuch Liu first, the emperor will be worried if he can't find you." Xue Chun turned around to leave after speaking.

Xi Xian said coldly behind her, "If you want to go, I will go first."

Xuechun stopped and looked at Xi Xian timidly. She knew that Xi Xian would do what she said. Although she failed Liu Maolin's entrustment, she could only take care of her eyes first.

Walking on the bustling street, Xi Xian felt that everything was out of tune with her. She wanted to let her cold body be warmed by the joy of others, but it seemed that a hard shell had formed on her body surface, separating herself from the outside world. Completely isolated, I can only curl up in my own bleak little world, getting more and more bleak.

"Look at how fun this is, let's sell it!" Xue Chun begged Xi Xian with a figurine made of painted pottery in his hand.

Xixian didn't speak but nodded, Xuechun happily chose among a bunch of villains, and finally bought two, held one of them in front of Xixian and said, "This beautiful lady in the red dress is you " He lifted the other one up and said, "This son of extraordinary appearance is the emperor... the young master!"

Looking at the two painted pottery figurines in Xuechun's hands, Xixian's eyes flickered, and she reached out to grab the young master, but there was a rush of horseshoes behind her.

Xixian turned her head to look, but before she could see anything clearly, she felt a pain in the back of her neck. In her last consciousness, she only remembered Xuechun's exclamation and the feeling of her body being lifted up into the air. Before she fainted, she saw Xuechun's hand The painted pottery figure rolled to the ground and was trampled to pieces by the horse's hooves. He wanted to reach out to grab it, but it was pitch black in front of him.

Xuechun followed the horses and chased them for several miles. In the end, he could only watch the fast horses go away. Before they disappeared, he threw a letter to Xuechun. ’, Seeing that it was impossible to chase the horse, Xuechun quickly put on her skirt and ran back to the general’s mansion.

Yuwen Haoxuan looked at the letter in his hand and his face became more and more serious. Liu Maolin reprimanded Xuechun in a low voice. Xuechun lowered his head and wept without a word of excuse. Yuwen Haoxuan gave them a cold look, and Liu Maolin immediately fell silent. The voice told Xuechun to go out first.

"It's Habudan, he wants me to redeem Xixian alone." Yuwen Haoxuan said and handed the letter paper to Liu Maolin.

After reading the letter quickly, Liu Maolin rolled up the letter paper angrily, "Your Majesty, you can't take risks alone, let the slaves go for you."

"No, if I don't go to Xixian, I will lose my life. Ha Budan is always ruthless, and if he is pushed into a hurry, he will definitely die."

"But if the emperor goes, wouldn't he be in the middle of his plan?" Liu Maolin reminded nervously that he would not let Yuwen Haoxuan take the risk alone.

Yuwen Haoxuan patted him on the shoulder, and was about to comfort him when Xia Zizhao walked in from the door, "Let me go, if something happens to you, the whole Jianguo might collapse."

"Let me go. The burden on you is no less than that of the emperor. I'm the only one who is alone. It's easy to talk about the one who has nothing to worry about." Liu Maolin stood in front of Xia Zizhao, expressing that he was the most suitable candidate.

"Stop arguing, all of you, this matter is caused by me, if I hadn't asked someone to disclose the news of Habudan's stay in Yangcheng to King Zuoxian and King Youxian, he would not have been forced to kidnap Xixian Come and blackmail me." Yuwen Haoxuan waved his hand to let the two of them stop talking, and took out the topographic map near Yangcheng to study it carefully.

Liu Maolin looked at the map and smacked his lips anxiously, "The Fengyang slope agreed by Habudan is on a higher terrain, and there are no trees around it to cover it, so we can't ambush people at all."

"If that's the case, then there's no need to alarm the army. I'll go up to Fengyangpo alone to hold them back. You and Zizhao lie in ambush a little further away, and follow my signal." Yuwen Haoxuan raised his head with a confident look.

Xia Zizhao looked at him, frowned thoughtfully, and wanted to say something, but in the end he just moved his lower lips slightly and looked down at the map on the table.
