After I quit my relationship, my fiancé was attacked by me

Chapter 74 I Have Conditions
Going back to the carriage again, seeing her bodyguards dead and wounded, and the murderous corpses all over the ground, Fuxuan belatedly felt fear.

Xie Zhan gathered the newly changed robes, fastened the jade belt around his waist, and while listening to Shi Qing's report, he set his eyes on Fu Xuan who was quietly sitting beside him.

She was pale and trembling, looking terrified.

"...A dozen or so escaped, all heading towards Yuzhou. That Hua Niang and the maid have also been killed..."

Shi Qing's voice was neither loud nor soft. Hearing this, Xie Zhan, who had no emotion at all, turned his head and looked over.

Xie Zhan confirmed and asked, "Dead?"

Shi Qing nodded and said yes.

It was getting late, the dark clouds were pressing down on the horizon, the light in the forest was dimmed, and the sight began to be unreal.

After Fuxuan's bodyguards had tidied up, the team leader stepped forward to report the loss, and then asked, "My lord, do we want to set off now?"

Without hesitation, Fu Xuan stood up and nodded to him.

Xie Zhan saw that her legs were weak even when she was standing, and she was still twisting her strength, if she rushed towards Yuzhou without knowing the danger, she thought for a moment, and finally said, "Fuxuan, come here."

He called her by first and last name, and the call was natural and slightly intimate, as if she was his attendant, if he called her twice before calling her, it would be like calling his cats and dogs .

To say when he stopped calling her "Fu Girl" and instead called "Fu Xuan", things have to go back to the last time she was in danger.

In that kick-off match, Fuxuan's horse was frightened, Xie Zhan was anxious, and blurted out to Fuxuan, "Fuxuan, hold tight".

Most of the rules in the world are like this, if two people get to know each other once, the subsequent acquaintance will be a matter of course.

No, even Fuxuan didn't feel any discomfort or surprise when he heard him calling her like this.

She walked over as she said.

Xie Zhan got up slowly, stood up straight, grabbed a string of jade pendants in front of his waist with his right hand, and rubbed them in his hand.

The people around stepped back tactfully, leaving space for the two masters.

When the servants retreated to a place where they could not hear their conversation, Xie Zhan said slowly, "Those people just now were not bandits, they were spies sent by Yuzhou. Maybe it was for you, maybe it was for me, or maybe it was for you I am all the same. Before I entered Yuzhou, I was targeted by someone with a heart. You have also seen that they are all very skilled, and their moves are deadly. The interior of Yuzhou will be more complicated than you expected. Even so, Are you going to keep going?"

Xie Zhan's words made Fu Xuan both surprised and scared.

Surprised how he could see the true identities of those people, and afraid of the dangers in his words.

But to his question, she replied decisively: "Yes!"

If she doesn't enter Yuzhou now, the more time goes by, the less evidence will be left for her to investigate, and even, it will be completely wiped out. At that time, it will be even more difficult.

To her surprise, Xie Zhan did not speak to dissuade her again as she imagined, but said to her: "Then you follow me, and I will protect you."

As soon as his words fell, Fu Xuan's eyes widened in disbelief.

This person suddenly didn't stop her, but wanted to help her. For a moment, she didn't know whether to be surprised or jealous.

She was holding a fake household registration document, and if he took her to the Yamen, she would not be able to get away easily.

Before her shock was over, Xie Zhan said again: "But I have a condition. She is dead, and I need you to pretend to be someone close to me."

Fu Xuan glanced left and right, and instantly realized which "she" it was, she asked excitedly and loudly, "You want me to be a flower girl?"

Xie Zhan responded, lowered his eyes, his thick and long eyelashes covered the emotions in his eyes.

Seeing his silence, Fuxuan said dissatisfied: "You don't know how to practice martial arts, so why do you say protect me? If it wasn't for my sleeve arrow today, the first murderer would have finished us both."

Hearing this, Xie Zhan sneered.

This is a disservice, and he still has the face to ask for credit.

Look at that face full of disgust, he really thinks he can't protect her.

He said, "Let me ask you, he has hacked so many times, did he hit you and me once?"

Fu Xuan's heart clicked, and she asked suspiciously, "What do you mean?"

Xie Zhan didn't want to hide it anymore.

He said seriously: "Xie Shaoqing knows martial arts, but Zhou Yushi doesn't. Zhou Yue's biggest hobby is women. If someone finds out that Zhou Yushi is very skilled and enters Yuzhou, how can he pretend?"

He spoke so bluntly, what else could Fu Xuan not understand?

A very bold conjecture popped into her mind, and Fu Xuan's heart beat like a drum.

She confirmed and asked: "Did you fall down the slope on purpose? So, you are Zhou Yue now? As a censor, go to Yuzhou? And is it for... investigating the case?"

Xie Zhan nodded, "Not bad."

He didn't refute every question, and the answer was ready to come out. Fu Xuan swallowed nervously, and then asked the question she was most concerned about: "Is the case related to my father?"

She looked at Xie Zhan nervously, expecting him to answer, but afraid that he would speak.

She was afraid of hearing words like "you think too much" from him that would disappoint her.

Xie Zhan didn't wait for her to suffer for too long, and replied to her: "Yes."

After getting the answer, Fuxuan couldn't hold back after all, she was stunned for a moment, and then with a "woo", she squatted down to cover her face, and cried miserably.

It's not that no one cares about his father's grievances.

Not that no one cared about his uncle's tragic death.

Xie Zhan waited for her to vent, saw her thin shoulders trembling, and did not open her mouth again.

It was better for her to cry out than to hold back.

After Fu Xuan cried enough, she got up, sucking her nose, looked at Xie Zhan and said seriously: "But I can't imitate Hua Niang."

Xie Zhan chuckled, "Who told you to learn from Hua Niang?"

He opened his eyes and said nonsense, Fu Xuan glared at him, and retorted: "Didn't you ask me to pretend to be her?"

"I asked you to pretend to be the person next to me, how could you be a flower girl?" Xie Zhan spoke seriously, but there was a mockery in his eyes.

The light was dim, and Fu Xuan's eyesight was not as good as Xie Zhan's, so she couldn't see his eyes, and was blocked by his words, and she was dumb for a while.

After a few moments of silence, she said seriously: "But I can't be a bodyguard either."

Xie Zhan had no doubts, and if she was left to guess, she would definitely be able to ask "Are you pretending to be a maid?"

Seeing that the sky was about to turn dark, and the few people were in danger beside the dense forest where wild beasts are most likely to appear in summer, Xie Zhan tightened his hands on the jade pendant, and said two words in a flat voice: "I love my concubine."

Concubine...?
Fu Xuan was surprised, her already big eyes stared round.

Xie Zhan didn't continue talking with her, and called Shi Qing over. With Shi Qing's help, he got into the carriage very slowly.

Fuxuan was still in a daze when she heard the person in the carriage say: "Xuanxuan, are you still coming in?"

The new identity came too fast, and Fu Xuan couldn't get used to it for a while.

But no matter how ignorant she is of the world, she can still think that the most important thing at this moment is to leave this deserted place as soon as possible.At the moment, I can't help myself from hesitation and entanglement, wasting everyone's time in vain.

More importantly, with the help of Xie Shaoqing, who has rich experience in investigating cases, there will be no harm to the investigation of evidence in Yuzhou.

For the sake of the truth, isn't she just pretending to be an identity, why wouldn't she dare?

Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth, squeezed "yes" between her teeth, and bent down into Xie Zhan's carriage.

　Xie Zhan will pay the price for this decision sooner or later.
