Zhan Xinglan picked up the wooden box beside him and put it on the table.

"Zhu Huan, Tian'er, here is some of my private money, you can use it to buy a house in Yanfu Fang and Shengping Fang in your name. Now that Chu Yan has been tortured by Yuan Mingzhe to the point that life is worse than death, she must live in seclusion to be at peace, and these two houses will serve as her temporary shelter."

Ding Tian smiled wisely, "Tian'er understands, if the person surnamed Yuan finds out that Qiu Niangzi is in one of the houses, he will immediately transfer Qiu Niangzi to another place."

"Tian'er is so smart, that's what my sister meant." Zhan Xinglan touched Tian'er's head, "Although the places where these two mansions are located are a little more remote, they are both places with excellent scenery in the capital, and this money is enough to buy a big mansion, so it should be regarded as the dowry I prepared for you in advance." It's just that I want to lend it to Chu Yan to live for a while, and if you mind, I will buy a house for you again in the future."

Zhu Huan frowned and said, "The maid has never wanted to marry a wife, she just wants to serve the princess forever."

"Silly girl, sooner or later, you will have to get married, and I am not willing to detain you by your side and be alone for the rest of your life."

Zhan Xinglan knew that Zhu Huan was loyal to her, so he didn't want to treat her badly.

"Today's events must not be said to be known to others, in case Yuan Mingzhe knows, Chu Yan will be frightened again. Zhu Huan, tomorrow I will ask Chu Yan to write a letter to Uncle Qiu to inform Uncle Qiu about her, and you will send it in person when the time comes."

"Yes, the servant understands."

Ding Tian tilted his head and asked puzzledly, "Sister, but this matter is not Qiu Niangzi's fault, why is she hiding?"

Zhan Xinglan didn't know how to answer for a while.

From ancient times to the present, most people in the world blame the flowers for being too delicate if they are forcibly plucked, and the people who pick the flowers have countless excuses to justify their atrocities.

"Tian'er, my sister only tells you one thing, sometimes people's hearts are not necessarily on the side of justice."

Ding Tian nodded as if he didn't understand.

Two days later, when the sky was slightly bright, Qiu Chuyan got into a simple carriage from the back door of King Ling's mansion and arrived at a house in Shengpingfang.

The terrain of Shengpingfang is towering, and the house purchased by Zhu Huan is next to a forest on the east side of Shengpingfang.

The environment is elegant, and there are few residents around, so no one usually comes here.

Qiu Chuyan slowly got out of the carriage and looked up at the plaque on the black tile and white wall.

"Hongluoju."

At this time, the door of Hongluoju opened.

A touch of the jade tree's windy figure met Qiu Chuyan's eyes.

"His Royal Highness King Jane?"

She looked at him in disbelief and took a step back unconsciously.

Fu Rinxu opened the door with both hands, but did not approach Qiu Chuyan.

"The eleventh brother and sister were afraid that you would be terrified when you were alone here, so they asked the king to come here to take care of you, didn't she tell you?"

Qiu Chuyan lowered his eyelids and shook his head.

"Chu Yan is a courtier, how can you bother His Royal Highness King Jian to take care of it, and ask His Royal Highness King Jian to go back to the palace."

Fu Rinxu finally had the opportunity to take care of her, how could he leave easily.

"This king is entrusted with the task of being faithful. This king is full of promises, but Qiu Niangzi refuses in every possible way, but I am worried that this king will do bad things to you?"

"No, Your Highness is a gentleman, and the courtiers are not worried about this."

Qiu Chuyan always hung his head, not daring to look at Fu Rinxu squarely.

"Then what worries about the autumn lady?"

Fu Rinxu asked softly, but Qiu Chuyan was silent.

What she was worried about was naturally that her unbearable side was seen by him, afraid that he would dislike herself, afraid that he would think he was dirty.

"Qiu Niangzi doesn't need to have any worries, this king is an idler, and he is not very conspicuous on weekdays, and no one will find out that you and I are here. This king also swears to heaven that he will never do anything to the autumn lady."

Fu Rinxu slowly stepped over the threshold and walked to Qiu Niangzi's side.

"Please."

Qiu Chu

Yan looked down at his brocade boots, bit his lower lip, and walked towards the house with his luggage on his shoulder.

From today on, the unanimous opinion to the outside world is that Qiu Chuyan is suffering from a serious illness and has left the capital to go to Fengzhou to recuperate.

Yuan Mingzhe went crazy looking for Qiu Chuyan, and even went to King Ling's Mansion to make a fuss.

In the end, he was dragged to the corner by Baili Mo and beaten violently before it stopped.

It is not a long-term solution to let Qiu Chuyan hide all the time, but it is still necessary to use some means to let Yuan Mingzhe leave the capital completely. Z.br>

Zhan Xinglan had a dangerous but foolproof plan in his heart.

After Qiu Chuyan had no news, Yuan Mingzhe was depressed all day long.

He's either buying drunk or on his way to get drunk.

Yuan Zhicheng saw him so erosive, he really hated that iron could not become steel, but Wang Ying'er was very happy.

"I thought he was going to come back this time and pretend to be a fool in front of your father, but he turned out to be an idiot who couldn't hold up the wall. Yi'er, come, eat some ice fruits."

Wang Ying'er sat under the gazebo in the main courtyard, eating the ice fruit on her plate in small bites.

Yuan Shuyi, who was sitting opposite her, saw that her aunt was so mean, and suddenly remembered what Yuan Mingzhe had said to him that day.

He put down the ice fruit in his hand lonely, and said righteously: "The eldest brother is also a poor man, and he has not had his mother by his side since he was a child. Ah Niang is the stepmother of the eldest brother, so she should treat him as her own, how can she treat the eldest brother so harshly."

As soon as she heard this, the smug smile on Wang Yinger's face instantly turned into anger.

"You're my own son, and you're going to turn against me for that idiot! Do you know that on the second day of my marriage to your father, that fool splashed me with footwater, and deliberately poured oil on the ground to cause me to fall! Fortunately, I sent him to Qiu's house early, otherwise how could you have been born alive, and now you are accusing me for him! Okay, since you feel so sorry for your eldest brother, then don't call me A-Niang in the future!"

Wang Ying'er angrily flipped the plate full of ice fruits to the ground, and then brushed her sleeves away.

Yuan Shuyi heard these old stories for the first time.

He didn't know how to judge what was right and what was wrong.

Just when he was depressed, the little guy in Yuan Mingzhe's courtyard ran over.

"Erlang-kun, this is a letterhead from the Lingwang Mansion, please take a look."

Yuan Shuyi had no dealings with King Ling, how could he have letterhead for him?

He took it, and after only one glance at the payment on it, he immediately blushed.

At the beginning of the afternoon of the same day, Yuan Shuyi put on his best-looking clothes and went to the appointment with a smile.

He walked to a side room, and excitedly and nervously took out the letterhead and looked at it, "Xunzi room, this is the right place."

Before he could knock, the door opened.

Zhu Huan owed him a debt, "Yuan Erlangjun, my princess has been waiting for you for a long time."

Yuan Shuyi hurriedly returned the salute, and then followed Zhu Huan in.

He looked down at Zhu Huan's steps, and Zhu Huan stopped when he stopped.

It wasn't until he caught a glimpse of the fluttering, glittering skirt that he raised his head.

"We're looking at the princess."

Yuan Shuyi didn't dare to look at him, so he hurriedly bowed his head and saluted.

Zhan Xinglan sat on the main seat, waved his hands and said, "Yuan Erlangjun, please get up, sit down."

"Thank you, Princess Niangniang."

Yuan Shuyi should have been happy to see Zhan Xinglan, but his nervousness far outweighed his happiness.

He sat down crampedly, only to realize that there was another person opposite.

Zhan Xinglan immediately introduced, "Yuan Erlangjun, this is the Gao lady of the Gao Shang family. Xi Chen, this is Chu Yan's cousin Yuan Shuyi."

The two politely said hello and knew each other.

"Yuan Erlangjun, in fact, I invite you to see you today, because I want to ask Yuan Erlangjun to help me with something."

Yuan Shuyi has always secretly liked Zhan Xinglan, and now that she needs him, she naturally agrees.

"What does the princess Niangniang command, Weichen will do her best to help."

"Actually, it's nothing, it just needs Yuan Erlangjun to make a scene in front of Yuan Mingzhe."

"Dramatic?"

Half an hour later, Yuan Shuyi walked out of the Xunzi room with a lonely expression.

But Zhan Xinglan and Gao Xichen showed a smile of victory.

"Xinglan, this Yuan Shuyi won't regret it temporarily."

Gao Xichen stepped forward and sat next to Zhan Xinglan.

Zhan Xinglan raised his arm and patted Gao Xichen's shoulder, "Don't worry, Yuan Shuyi is a sincere reader, and the sage books he has read since he was a child are not allowed to go back on his word and break his promise."

Gao Xichen tilted his head to look at Zhan Xinglan's deceitful expression on his face, and couldn't help but joke: "No wonder they all say that you are a little fox, this head is a spiritual light."

Zhan Xinglan let go of Gao Xichen with a smile and looked her up and down scrutinically.

"They? It's my second brother who told you that I'm a little fox."

"yes."

"Then what do you think of my second brother?"

"He is a strong martial artist, a young hero, and a good man who stands up to the sky!"

When Gao Xichen said this, his eyes sparkled with appreciation.

Zhan Xinglan nodded, looked at her and continued to ask, "Then do you like my second brother?"

"Naturally, it is pleasing to the heart." Gao Xi was straightforward and admitted it directly, but she suddenly sighed again, "It's just that it's useless for me to like him."

"Why is that?"

"Second Brother Zhan followed Uncle Zhan to quell the border rebellion and made military achievements, and His Majesty made him a lieutenant of Zhenwei as soon as he was happy. This is a good thing, but now he stays in the barracks all day long, and he has no intention of having children."

"As the saying goes, women chase men, and the veil is interlayered. The second brother is now devoted to the barracks, but he may not have no love in his heart, but he just needs a suitable time for that love to first open."

"Love? First of all?"

Gao Xi pondered for a while, and suddenly excitedly took Zhan Xinglan's hand.

"Xinglan, I understand, I want to disguise myself as a man and enter the barracks!"

"Huh?"

"When Yuan Mingzhe is forced out of the capital, I will go to the Xishan military camp, and I don't believe that his love has not been opened."

Gao Xichen's face was full of seriousness.

Zhan Xinglan couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

She thought that she was like a reckless man enough, but she didn't expect Gao Xichen to be more reckless than her.

But only such a sassy woman can conquer Zhanmobei.

In the middle of the night, Yuan Shuyi was asleep.

Suddenly, a hand covered his mouth.

Yuan Shuyi woke up suddenly, the figure in front of him was so frightened that he almost lost his three souls and seven souls, and instinct drove him to struggle hard in the dark night.

"Shhhh I'm your big brother!"

Yuan Mingzhe lowered his voice and made a gesture of silence.
