Chapter 78: Ominous Wind (5)
Faced with such a good opportunity, whether to choose to have and grasp it all depends on Zhou Yan's words at this moment. This decision is crucial to Zhou Yan. He let go of Yin Yin, turned around, and faced Yin Yin with his back, as if thinking deeply? Yin Yin could understand Zhou Yan's reaction. If Xue Han hadn't told her, she would have thought that as long as she left here with Zhou Yan, the matter would be resolved. It seems that it is not as simple as imagined, especially after arriving at the camp and seeing the soldiers preparing for battle, Yin Yin became more certain.
The reason why Zhou Yan couldn't answer easily was because his current situation didn't allow it, and Zhou Cheng wouldn't easily watch Yin Yin leave with him. Of course, Zhou Yan wouldn't let Yin Yin go, but if he didn't leave now, what Yin Yin said might become a reality, and then Zhou Yan would miss this opportunity. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him, and he had no reason to give up, but he couldn't leave easily either. The reason couldn't be told to Yin Yin, so Zhou Yan couldn't give an answer easily.
"Are you hesitating?"
"Of course not."
If the answer was hesitation, Yin Yin would of course want to know the reason, so Zhou Yan immediately answered Yin Yin's question.
"Yeah?"
Yinyin knew that Zhou Yan wanted to conceal the battle with Zhou Cheng, otherwise why didn't he answer immediately and didn't dare to look at her when answering? Unfortunately, Zhou Yan didn't know that she already knew everything.
"So when do we leave?"
"I still have some things to take care of, so I guess it will take a few days. You can continue to stay in Weicheng while you wait."
"Even if I change my mind?"
Yin Yin's words immediately made Zhou Yan silent. What he said was not what he wanted to say. The situation this time was really different from the past. He believed that Zhou Cheng would not give up, and he himself had no intention of giving up. He did not want to stop at the last minute every time. In the long run, trouble would inevitably arise. This time might be a great opportunity, but Yin Yin's appearance prevented him from making a decision easily, because Zhou Yan knew that if he went to war with Zhou Cheng with Yin Yin present, he would definitely lose everything. He originally planned to let Yin Yin stay in Weicheng and block the news immediately. It didn't matter if it was known afterwards, but it didn't go as he wished.
"If that's the case, then I'll make my choice now. I..."
"No! Don't say that!"
Yin Yin was about to speak when she was interrupted by Zhou Yan. Zhou Yan knew very well what Yin Yin's choice would be. He would never allow her to let go of the opportunity she had finally grasped. He faced Yin Yin with a painful and embarrassing expression. After all, it was all for Yin Yin. If it weren't for Yin Yin, he wouldn't have come to this point, let alone so painful. His expression surprised Yin Yin. Although it was not the first time she saw Zhou Yan's expression, Yin Yin felt that this time was more painful than ever, so painful that it seemed like her heart was crying, which made people feel sad.
Just as Yinyin was in a daze, trying to guess what Zhou Yan was thinking, Zhou Yan hugged her again, tightly...
"Don't say anything more. I know what to do. Let's go together. As long as you are by my side, nothing matters anymore."
If he has to choose no matter what, Zhou Yan will definitely choose Yin Yin. Other things are no longer important to him. Whether it is life or death, he can just wait until the time comes to deal with it. If Zhou Cheng wants to stop him, even in front of Yin Yin, Zhou Yan will never back down. I believe Yin Yin will also understand his feelings , so it’s okay to escape.
Inside a tent in Zhouyan Camp.
Gao Jin and Zhu Ji came to Zuo Yu's tent together and informed him of Yin Yin's arrival.
"Really? It's finally here."
Zuo Yu seemed worried about Yin Yin's arrival.
"If the princess came forward, she would definitely be able to stop this fight."
"Not necessarily. The princess shouldn't know about this, right?"
Zhu Ji and Gao Jin each held an opinion, because they believed that Yin Yin's arrival would change the whole situation. Zhu Ji, Gao Jin, and Zuo Yu all hoped to avoid this kind of battle. Since Yin Yin came, they certainly hoped for a good result.
"It doesn't matter if you know or not. I don't think the prince would go to war with the emperor in front of her eyes."
"That's right."
"Anyway, I'd better avoid this kind of battle if I can. Unless I have no other choice, I really don't want to see my compatriots killing each other."
"Who would hope so?"
In front of Zuo Yu, Zhu Ji and Gao Jin expressed their thoughts one after another. Zuo Yu listened to them but did not express anything. He knew that this battle would definitely change because of Yin Yin, but he could not predict how much it would cost after the change, especially for Yin Yin. This battle seemed to be caused by Yin Yin, but in fact it was incubated by the selfish ideas of Zhou Cheng and Zhou Yan. Yin Yin was just used as an excuse. This was the conclusion Zuo Yu came to after calming down.
However, what really worries Zuo Yu is not Zhou Yan or Zhou Cheng, but Yin Yin . If she knew that the incident was caused by her, Yin Yin would never forgive herself and would be deeply guilty. If she tried to stop it herself without knowing it, she would surely endure unimaginable torture and torment. Regardless of the former or the latter, Yin Yin would suffer a lot for it, and this is what Zuo Yu could not bear to see.
"So, no matter how you think about it, the biggest victim in this matter is probably the princess."
"……yes."
While Zuo Yu was thinking alone, Zhu Ji and Gao Jin seemed to have come to some conclusion.
