It snowed heavily for a whole day, and the whole capital was white at night.

Since committing suicide after the abolition, Fu Luoxiang has returned to live in the princess courtyard, but Zhan Xinglan told her that Jingyi Pavilion will always welcome her to come back to live.

So when Fu Luoxiang came to King Ling's mansion, the maids in the mansion consciously took her to Jingyi Pavilion.

Fu Luoxiang looked at this warm courtyard, and thanked Zhan Xinglan from the bottom of her heart for her protection and help.

She sat under the pavilion where she used to bask in the sun with Zhan Xinglan, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.

But her smile didn't last long, and she remembered to smell people.

On the way to Lingwang's Mansion, Fu Luoxiang also figured out everything.

It turned out that Wen Ren tried his best to save her before, thinking that the person kidnapped by Yuan Zhicheng was Zhan Xinglan.

The so-called hero saving the United States is just an oolong.

Fu Luoxiang hung her head in frustration, she finally had a feeling of affection for someone, but this person actually liked her best friend.

[If it weren't for the sudden marriage of his father, Lan'er would probably also consider being with the Holy King. 】

"Holy King, Star Incense Pavilion...... He's really always loved Lan'er."

Zhan Xinglan happily walked into the courtyard of Jingyi Pavilion, creaking with the soft snow under his feet.

"Tenth sister, why did you come here suddenly?"

Fu Luoxiang came back to his senses from his thoughts and walked towards Zhan Xinglan happily.

"I know that you have been busy with the affairs of Zhang Niangzi's medical hall recently, so I don't dare to disturb you. Knowing that you are free today, I want to come and see you."

"It's cold outside, go in and say."

Zhan Xinglan affectionately took Fu Luoxiang's hand, pulled her and walked into the house.

Fu Luoxiang smiled with relief, even if she heard that people liked Zhan Xinglan, she liked a girl like Zhan Xinglan who was like fire and warmed people's hearts.

As soon as they entered the house, the chill on their bodies dissipated a lot.

"Tenth Sister's hands are so cold, why don't you come into the house and wait for me."

Zhan Xinglan rubbed Fu Luoxiang's hand and asked suspiciously.

Fu Luoxiang patted Zhan Xinglan's hand and said, "I'm fine. Actually, I have one more important thing to tell you today."

She told Zhan Xinglan everything that had just happened in Xingxiang Pavilion.

"The Holy King was afraid that it would be inconvenient to meet you, so he asked me to tell you. Yuan Erlangjun and Wang Niangzi's reaction is really too strange, their Yuan family has a grudge against you, Lan'er must be careful."

"yes, I see."

Zhan Xinglan nodded.

Late that night, Li Qingchen ordered Ling Yuge's men to sneak into the current Yuan family's mansion.

The next day, Zhan Xinglan received the news.

"What!? Yuan Mingzhe is still alive!"

"My subordinates sent someone to infiltrate Yuan's mansion last night and saw Yuan Mingzhe lying neatly dressed in the house. Although his face was pale, his chest rose and fell evenly, and he was indeed alive."

"The scourge has been left for thousands of years, but I didn't expect him to escape all the way from Qinzhou back to the capital. Poor his father, who thought he had lost his life, sought revenge from me and cut off his own life."

Although Zhan Xinglan was stunned, he felt more sorry for Yuan Zhicheng.

"Early tomorrow morning, I'm going to the Qiu Mansion to meet Chu Yan. The fifth brother and Chu Yan's marriage is approaching, but Yuan Mingzhe is coming back at this time, if he doesn't take precautions, I'm afraid he will have extraneous branches."

The next day, it was just dawn.

The subordinates of the Qiu Mansion were busy hanging the red tent on the gate of the Qiu Mansion.

"Hey, move to the left."

"No, no, a little bit lower."

Qiu Zhenhao commanded the little guy with joy on his face, and almost wrote the word "happy" on his face.

"Uncle Qiu."

"Hey, Weichen knocked on His Royal Highness King Ling, and knocked on Princess Ling."

Qiu Zhenhao turned around and saw Fu Xuanlin coming over with Zhan Xinglan in his arms, and hurriedly saluted.

"Uncle Qiu, please get up."

"His Royal Highness King Ling and Princess Ling must have come to see Chu Yan, and His Royal Highness King Jian is also here, so the two of them went to the mansion to find them."

In the autumn mansion, there are obviously many more maids and servants.

The courtyard is also much more lively than before.

With the guidance of the maidservant, Zhan Xinglan and Fu Xuanlin quickly found the two who were picking each other in the backyard.

When the sound of the piano fell, Zhan Xinglan applauded and praised:

"The fifth brother's piano sound is elegant and soothing, like a trickle flowing into the heart, I don't know if the fifth brother is already superb in the piano, or because Chu Yan is on his side, the piano sound is tactful and the affection is stronger?"

"Xinglan, you're here!"

Qiu Chuyan stepped forward happily and grabbed Zhan Xinglan's hand with both hands.

Today's Qiu Chuyan is simply like Qiu Chuyan, who was tortured by Yuan Mingzhe before.

Zhan Xinglan's eyebrows tightened, and the smile on his face was also a little sad.

She didn't know whether to tell Qiu Chuyan the fact that Yuan Mingzhe was still alive at the moment.

If you tell her, won't it push her gradually brighter life to the bottom again?

Don't tell her that she will have to face Yuan Mingzhe who has come back from the dead after all, won't she be even more collapsed when the time comes?

Qiu Chuyan looked at Zhan Xinglan who was in a daze suspiciously, shook her hand, and said, "Xinglan, you seem to have something on your mind?"

"I ......"

"Yuan Mingzhe is back."

Fu Xuanlin saw her hesitation, so he simply opened her mouth.

Fu Rinxu's hand was lightly resting on the strings, and when he heard this, his stretched fingers instantly tightened.

The strings snapped!

"Eleventh brother, what you said is true?"

"It's true."

Zhan Xinglan felt that the warm and soft hand that had been holding her suddenly became cold and stiff.

She looked at Qiu Chuyan worriedly, and said comfortingly: "Chu Yan, don't be afraid, now that the Yuan family is in decline, presumably Yuan Mingzhe will not dare to act rashly."

"But isn't he already dead in Qinzhou? Why did you suddenly come back from the dead?"

"It is only Yuan Mingzhe's substitute ghost who died in Qinzhou, and he fled all the way back to the capital from the place where he was serving his sentence."

Fu Rinxu gritted his teeth and said uneasily, "Since he is back, it will definitely be unfavorable to Chu Yan. Eleventh brother, eleventh brother and sister, can you let Chu Yan temporarily live in Lingwang's Mansion these days?"

Fu Xuanlin didn't hesitate at all, and immediately said, "Naturally, the Ling Wangfu is heavily guarded, so there is no need to worry about the safety of the fifth sister-in-law."

With this heavy guarantee, Qiu Chuyan's panicked heart was gradually appeased.

Zhan Xinglan stroked Qiu Chuyan's shoulder distressedly, what a girl, she was actually scared like this by a scumbag.

[It seems that if this Yuan Mingzhe does not die, Chu Yan may not be able to be peaceful in this life. 】

However, Zhan Xinglan is not the only one who wants Yuan Mingzhe to die.

Yuanfu firewood house——

"Auntie, what are you doing here! Put the knife down!"

Yuan Shuyi lowered his voice, and grabbed Wang Ying'er's hand holding the axe of chopping wood with both hands.

Now that the Yuan family has declined, their orphans and widows can only find a small house to settle in the downtown area of Beijing.

The neighborhoods around here are close to each other, and the yards are not too big, and anyone who sneezes can sound like a cannon fight.

Yuan Shuyi naturally didn't dare to shout loudly, for fear that others would hear the movement of the beating and killing.

Wang Ying'er had an expression of hatred that iron could not become steel, and roared:

"You unfilial son, let it go!"

"Auntie, he is the eldest brother of the son, now that the father is gone, we only have one relative, the eldest brother."

"Such a dead star, you still think of him as a big brother? If it weren't for that obstacle, why would your father have done that foolish thing of avenging his son? It's good now, your father has died, the Yuan family is not as good as before, and even you have been demoted!"

"My father's willingness to die to avenge my eldest brother shows that my father cares about my eldest brother in his heart. Now that the eldest brother has come back from the dead, his father may be blessed by heaven. Auntie, just think it's for your father's sake, let's spare his life."

Yuan Shuyi persuaded each other hard, and sent Wang Ying'er to kneel down.

"Auntie, the reason why the eldest brother has become tyrannical and radical is also the responsibility of you and your father. If you kill Big Brother, you won't have a chance to make amends. My father has already suffered retribution, can't my mother think of a good death?"

When Wang Ying'er heard this, she immediately let go of the axe and gave Yuan Shuyi a crisp slap.

"Shaft! Is that how you cursed your own mother?"

"I've done so much for you, and you're actually helping a scourge like this!"

Yuan Shuyi shook his head and explained, "Ah Niang, how dare you curse you, it's just ......

Wang Ying'er lowered her voice, and her trembling hand tightly grasped Yuan Shuyi's arm.

"What is the crime of hiding a fugitive, you, the court official, should know better than me, a deep lady. As long as we get rid of him while no one finds him, no one will know about it."

"Our Yuan family has been harmed enough by that evil obstacle, and you don't want him to ruin your future and life, right?"

"A-Niang knows that you can't do it, what you can't do, A-Niang will do it for you!"

With that, Wang Ying'er resolutely held the axe and walked towards the door of the firewood room.

This time Yuan Shuyi didn't stop him, he just leaned over and looked at Wang Ying'er with panic in his eyes.

But just when Wang Ying'er was about to push the door open, the door opened by itself.

Wang Ying'er was so frightened that she froze in place, and the axe she held high also paused in mid-air.

"You...... You ......."

I saw Yuan Mingzhe with a gloomy face, biting his back molars and staring at Wang Ying'er.

"You want to kill me?"

"No, big brother, A-Niang has no such intention."

Yuan Shuyi stepped forward and snatched the axe, blocking Wang Ying'er, who was so frightened, that she lost her mind.

Yuan Mingzhe looked Yuan Shuyi up and down and asked:

"Where's my father?"

Wang Ying'er glared and snorted coldly, "You still have the face to ask!" Your father thought you had died in Qinzhou, and in order to avenge you, he tried to kill Princess Ling. When his deeds were revealed, he committed suicide in prison!"

Yuan Mingzhe was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes changed from fierce to incredible.

"No way, he hates me so much, how can he avenge me?"

"Big brother, what A-Niang said is true, in order to avenge you, my father also cut off the relationship with me and A-Niang in advance."

Yuan Mingzhe lowered his eyes and sneered.

"I didn't know it hurt me until I died, why did I go earlier!"

"Big brother, how can you say that? Aren't you touched and sad that your father died because of you?"

"Touched? Sad?" Yuan Mingzhe stepped out of the threshold, walked in front of Yuan Shuyi step by step, stretched out his finger and poked Yuan Shuyi's shoulder and said, "You have grown up in love since you were a child, but I am not. This kind of belated fatherly love is not uncommon."

Yuan Mingzhe pushed Yuan Shuyi away violently, dragging him outside covered in frostbite.

Yuan Shuyi didn't seem to expect Yuan Mingzhe to be so ruthless, and his hand holding the axe became tighter and tighter.

"Stop!"
