Bai Xianyu’s heart beat faster as she leaned close to Green Pearl’s ear. “Did you hear anything?”

Green Pearl shook her head. 𝒻𝓇𝘦𝘦𝘸𝘦𝒷𝓃𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Bai Xianyu felt that something was wrong and said to the servant driving the horse, “Walk faster. It’s too slow.”

“Yes, Miss. Sit tight.”

The coachman let out a long sigh, and the horses immediately spread their hooves and galloped away. The quiet street was instantly occupied by the sound of a horse galloping.

Bai Xianyu took advantage of the moment when the carriage shook and pretended to yawn inadvertently. She quickly lifted a small corner of the curtain behind her.

Then, she quickly put it down.

“Green Pearl, we’re being followed.”

Green Pearl’s eyes widened in surprise. She looked back and asked, “Who is it?”

Bai Xianyu suspected that it was the mastermind. She did not expect that not only did they want Qi Heng’s life, but they also wanted hers. Were they venting their anger on her for accidentally bumping into that assassin that day, incurring their great fury and causing their affair to be more likely to be discovered by the Court of Judicial Review?

“Someone who wants my life,” Bai Xianyu said calmly. “We’re still very far from the General’s Manor. He probably wants to find a suitable time to attack.”

Green Pearl said in shock, “Then what should we do? Someone actually dares to have designs on you?”

How could her life be compared to the most wonderful imperial power in the world in the eyes of those people?

Bai Xianyu looked around. “Don’t panic. We’re about to pass by the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor on this path. Let’s go in first to take shelter. Then, we’ll get someone to go to the General’s Manor and get Bai Li to bring a few guards.”

Otherwise, no one in this carriage would be able to resist the people behind.

She had only practiced martial arts for over 20 days. There was still a huge gap between her and those who had practiced martial arts since they were young. Moreover, there were no weapons in the carriage.

Green Pearl nodded and hugged Bai Xianyu in a panic.

“To the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor.”

“Alright, Miss!”

After turning the corner, the carriage slowly stopped at the entrance of the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor.

Before she got off the carriage, she heard a familiar voice. “Fifth Miss Bai?”

Bai Xianyu lifted the curtain and walked down. Her expression relaxed slightly. “Xiao Zheng.”

Xiao Zheng was miserably holding a broom in his hands. He was sweeping the fallen leaves in front of the Marquis Manor. His legs did not look too nimble. “Why are you here at this hour?”

Xiao Zheng said bitterly, “I’m being punished by Eldest Princess. I’ve received some beatings with a board, and have to sweep the fallen leaves for a month. Fifth Miss Bai, why are you still outside so late?”

Bai Xianyu said, “Can you do me a favor?”

“Of course.”

“Send someone to my residence to send a message and ask Bai Li to bring a few guards here.”

Xiao Zheng still had this bit of authority. He immediately pointed at the guards at the gate. “The two of you, did you hear what Fifth Miss Bai said? Go to the General’s Manor and get some people over now.”

“Yes, Commander Xiao.”

“Thanks a lot.”

Bai Xianyu did not enter either. She just stood at the gate and waited. It should not be long before she saw Bai Li and the others.

Xiao Zheng smiled and said, “Fifth Miss Bai, you’re welcome.”

Perhaps they would be one family in the future.

Bai Xianyu looked back. The man in black she had seen just now had already disappeared. He probably did not expect her to enter the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor. She just did not know if he would be lying in ambush nearby.

As expected, the moon was dark and the wind was strong. It was a day of murder and arson. It was rare for her to go on the road at night and yet she actually encountered such a thing.

“By the way, is Xie Xingyun feeling better after drinking the medicine?” Bai Xianyu asked.

After she had fed him medicine in the afternoon, Guo Ying got someone to send her back to her residence.

Xiao Zheng was about to say that he was much better, but he suddenly changed his words. He threw the broom away with a “sad” expression on his face. “He’s not good…”

Bai Xianyu frowned slightly. “Why is he not good? Didn’t his fever slowly subside after I went back?”

Xiao Zheng frowned and looked up. He put on a very serious face. “Fifth Miss Bai, Young Master’s condition was indeed fine before you left, but after you left, Young Master suddenly had a high fever. It was very serious and came on strong.”

Bai Xianyu’s frown deepened.

Xiao Zheng continued to add more fire, speaking with half-truths, “When 1 rushed to Li River that day, Young Master was almost half-dead. He w’as still holding your jade pendant tightly in his hand. When Young Master saw me, the first thing he asked me to do was to hand it to you. He even asked me to say that it had been fished out by an official. Fifth Miss Bai, you don’t know7 that I trained my endurance when I was young. My Teacher only dared to let me soak in such cold spring water for four hours. Now’ that Young Master has a high fever, it’s understandable that he’s in and out of the fever.”

Bai Xianyu felt even more guilty.

Xiao Zheng’s tears were about to fall as he spoke. He exaggeratedly wiped his tears and said, “Fifth Miss Bai, Young Master seems to be missing one more dose of his medicine. Look, since you’re just waiting here, you could also wait at Young Master’s place rather than wait here. Why don’t you go and see Young Master and also feed him some medicine? Sigh… my poor Young Master.”

Bai Xianyu hesitated for a moment and said, “Alright, then when someone comes from my residence later, please send someone to inform me.”

Xiao Zheng hurriedly nodded.

After Bai Xianyu entered, Xiao Zheng heaved a sigh of relief. “Young Master is still short of a dose of medicine. That medicine is you, Fifth Miss Bai. If you get together with Young Master, I guarantee that Young Master will recover from all his ailments.”

Green Pearl hummed strangely. “Xiao Zheng, what are you saying to my Miss?”

Xiao Zheng sheepishly averted his gaze, “Nothing.”

Bai Xianyu did not go to Xie Xingyun’s house directly. Instead, she went to look for Guo Ying first. Because of Xie Xingyun’s fever, the Eldest Princess and she had not returned to the Eldest Princess’ residence these few’ days. Instead, they stayed in the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor.

She looked for Guo Ying to make her intentions clear. Guo Ying had just rested for a few hours, but after hearing Bai Xianyu’s words, she instantly lost the mood to sleep.

“Young Master has a high fever again? I thought that Young Master’s fever had subsided, so 1 asked the servants to leave first. Young Master has never liked anyone to stand guard when he’s resting.”

Bai Xianyu said, “Xiao Zheng told me just now. Can you get someone to brew’ the medicine again? 1 can feed it to him.”

Guo Ying could not be bothered to ask why Bai Xianyu w’as here at this hour. She hurriedly replied, “Miss Bai, w’ait a moment. I’ll get the maidservant to get the medicine now.”

She ran out in a hurry, then turned back and said worriedly, “Then I’ll have to trouble Miss Bai to go and take a look at Young Master’s condition now’. I’ll bring the medicine over later.”

Bai Xianyu nodded.

“Thank you, Miss.”

She was very familiar with the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor. After all, she had lived there for several years. After Guo Ying left, Bai Xianyu went to Xie Xingyun’s courtyard.

She guessed that Xie Xingyun w’as still drowsy with a fever.

However, the room was brightly lit, and candlelight danced on the window paper.

Bai Xianyu pushed the door open and entered. The room w’as very quiet, and even the sound of breathing could not be heard.

She walked into the inner room and realized that the bed was empty.

“…Where is he?”

Suddenly, she heard footsteps coming towards her.

Xie Xingyun’s room consisted of an outer room, an inner room, and a bathroom. The outer room w’as also divided into a study and a place for guests..
