My house was confiscated and I was exiled. I emptied the emperor's warehouse and fled.

High up on the ridge near the camp, it was quiet and deserted, making it a good place to talk.

Fan Chengwen took off his shirt, revealing the blood-stained gauze, which looked like blossoming red plums dotting it.

"The wound collapsed." Wu Shaohan untied the gauze, revealing the everted whiplash.

He quickly and calmly stopped the bleeding, applied medicine, and rebandaged it.

After everything was done, Fan Chengwen put on his clothes, looked at Wu Shaohan and said, "How have you been lately?"

"Very good." Wu Shaohan responded with a smile.

"I think the Qin family has a lot of rules. If Mrs. Ding violates a taboo, please help her protect her."

"She is protected by the young lady, so nothing serious will happen to her."

With the young lady's temperament, no one can try to restrain her with rules.

As the person she brought back to the Qin family, Mrs. Ding naturally did not have to be subject to those restrictions.

Fan Chengwen said worriedly: "It can be protected for a while, but it cannot be protected for a lifetime."

"As I said, except her husband, who can protect her for the rest of her life!" After Wu Shaohan finished speaking, he looked at him with deep meaning, "What do you think?"

Fan Chengwen shook his head: "I haven't thought that far yet."

Wu Shaohan's heart moved, if he could be kept in Youzhou City and used by his master...

Although he had only been in the official service for a short period of time, he had learned a lot about the people around Zhong Wei.

As Zhong Wei's right-hand man, Fan Chengwen's character, temperament and martial arts are not bad.

He also learned about Fan Chengwen's past from Jiang Xiaoliu.

Many years ago, Beidi broke through the country and headed south. The village where his hometown was located was burned, killed, looted, and his family was destroyed.

Fan Chengwen became a refugee and moved to the capital to make a living. He was bullied many times by local gangsters and his younger brothers. Just when he couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to kill someone to vent his anger, he was stopped by Zhong Wei who was passing by and took him back to his home.

After hearing about his life experience and experiences, Zhong Wei saw that he was agile, so he personally taught him Sanda Kung Fu. After passing the test, he recommended him to become a servant and followed him from then on.

Last year, he married a commoner's daughter. He thought he would start a family and live a stable and happy life, but when he returned to Beijing after completing an escort mission, his wife's affair with a foreign man was discovered.

This dynasty has strict laws for women. If the laws were followed, the woman would be paraded through the streets on a wooden donkey and then immersed in a pig cage and drowned in a river.

After her pleading, Fan Chengwen finally couldn't bear to send her to the government, so he divorced her.

From then on, he said goodbye to the matchmaker.

Fan Chengwen's job is destined to bring together less and more separation. He is afraid that if he wears this cuckold once, there will be a second or third time...

Originally, Wu Shaohan thought that Fan Chengwen would always follow Zhong Wei, but now that Lady Ding is a variable, it is hard to say.

Since ancient times, heroes have struggled with beauty, and even his wise and brave master has fallen into this trap.

If Fan Chengwen is really moved by his true feelings, it is not impossible to stay in Youzhou for Lady Ding.

Just when I thought of this, I heard laughter not far away.

Coincidentally, this was exactly where Qin Junyi was picking flowers, and Yu Zhenzhen and others were walking towards this place each carrying a basket on their backs.

They also quickly discovered Wu Shaohan and said hello.

Fan Chengwen looked at Ding Qiutong intently, stepped forward and said, "Ms. Ding, I have something to say to you."

Ding Qiutong instantly felt hot all over his body and his cheeks turned red.

The others walked away wisely, to a position where they could see the two figures but not hear their words.

"Thank you for the decoction last night." Fan Chengwen stared at the gentle and beautiful woman in front of him.

Ding Qiutong was slightly stunned and said: "You're welcome, this is what I should do. Is your injury better?"

"Much better, this matter has nothing to do with you, no need to worry about it." Fan Chengwen said, taking out five taels of silver, "This is the medicine money, please keep it."

"No, no, I picked the medicine myself. I didn't spend any money." Ding Qiutong quickly waved his hand and explained.

Fan Chengwen said: "That is also the result of your hard work, keep it."

"I really can't take it. Does Mr. Chai have anything else to do?" Ding Qiutong was so flustered that he wanted to run away.

Seeing that she was too nervous, Fan Chengwen stopped insisting and asked, "Do you want to go back to Beijing?"

Ding Qiutong was stunned for a moment: "I...I am guilty of exile, how can I go back?"

She couldn't help but burst into tears when she thought of her parents who were far away in the capital.

"Don't be sad, I thought of a way." Fan Chengwen felt pity in his heart, and before Ding Qiutong asked again, he said a common strategy: "Fake death to escape, and change sides."

Ding Qiutong thought about these eight words carefully, but shook his head, "Thank you, Master Cha. I want to go to Youzhou first."

To achieve these two points, she cannot do it alone.

She and Fan Chengwen were not related, so she could not rely on him to accomplish this.

If someone has good intentions, she doesn't want to implicate him in this capital crime of beheading.

If he had evil intentions, she didn't want him to take advantage of it and let him control her for the rest of her life.

So she politely declined.

Fan Chengwen was very surprised. This was completely different from what he expected.

If it were an ordinary woman who could get rid of her sinful body and continue to communicate with her relatives, I'm afraid not many people would be able to refuse.

"What worries do you have?" Fan Chengwen couldn't figure it out, so he asked directly.

Ding Qiutong replied: "No, I just want to live an upright life, but thank you anyway."

Fan Chengwen was in trouble now, and his brows were so tangled that they could kill a mosquito.

"Master, I'm leaving first, you can do it yourself."

Ding Qiutong walked towards Qin Ruotong and others, and they left together.

Wu Shaohan saw Fan Chengwen with tangled eyebrows and asked him what difficulties he encountered.

Fan Chengwen talked about the plan of feigning death to escape, and said: "She can use this to return to the capital. I really can't figure out why she refused without thinking."

"In this vision, where is your position?" Wu Shaohan asked.

Fan Chengwen's breath was stagnant. He was not a bad person, so he naturally wanted to marry Ding Qiutong, and he did not hesitate to take the risk of the matter being exposed.

But if Mrs. Ding doesn't want to, he won't force her, and she will treat it as a good deed every day.

But all this is just wishful thinking on his part.

As a woman with a newly divorced single parent and a child, Ding Qiutong has long passed the age of all-or-nothing.

There is a saying that "the first marriage is for the father, and the second marriage is for oneself." If she doesn't meet someone she can trust for life, she will not marry again.

As for Mr. Fan Cha, the fact that his home is in the capital has become an insurmountable distance between them.
