Just as this thought crossed her mind, the gate to the courtyard was kicked open, and a group of soldiers poured in. Leading them was none other than General Guo Xing.
Seeing him, Su Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, they were Chu Yuxiao’s men.
Guo Xing was equally delighted to see her. Upon arriving at this fishing village and questioning everyone, he learned from a doctor that this family had rescued a pregnant woman a few days ago.
Then, he immediately led his troops here. Fortunately, it was indeed the Empress, and the Emperor could rest assured...
When Su Yan was taken away, Xiao Huan and Da Min finally smiled. It was a sincere smile, wishing her well. freeweɓnovel.cøm
The anxiety in her heart also subsided.
Earlier, when Guo Xing led his soldiers and a large group of people knelt before her, respectfully addressing her as Empress, she clearly saw the bewildered expressions of Xiao Huan and Da Min.
Afterward, the two remained silent, evidently troubled about having saved the Empress of an enemy nation...
Fortunately, they were inherently kind and did not dwell on it for long before coming to terms.
Su Yan knew they were not well off, so she had Guo Xing leave a substantial amount of silver taels for them, expressed her gratitude, and then boarded the comfortable carriage arranged for her, leaving the fishing village. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
Seeing Chu Yuxiao again, Su Yan could hardly believe that the man with sunken eyes, bloodshot eyes, and a beard was the same incredibly handsome Chu Yuxiao.
He probably hadn’t slept at all these past few days.
Upon seeing her, the first thing Chu Yuxiao did was to help her to the bed to sit down and ordered the Imperial Physicians to check her pulse.
Today was the moment of the Seven Insect Flower’s onset, and Chu Yuxiao had been in constant fear every moment these past few days for this moment.
He was afraid that something had happened to Su Yan after she fell into the water. He also feared that even if she survived, he hadn’t found her in time, allowing the poison to take her life.
Every worry made him unable to eat or sleep, filling him with unease.
Now, having finally found her and seeing her safe, he still couldn’t relax in the slightest because today was the poison’s fateful day...
If anything happened to her, he would use his own life to save hers...
Initially, Su Yan was both joyful and heartbroken at seeing him and didn’t have time to react before he called a whole team of Imperial Physicians to check her pulse.
Soon after, she realized his intention.
She didn’t speak, letting the Imperial Physicians feel her pulse, intending to give Chu Yuxiao a surprise. Each Imperial Physician that checked her pulse looked delighted, which confused Chu Yuxiao.
