After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

Liu Yunxiang and Pei Xuan talked for a long time. Their ideas were very consistent, and they were both the kind of people who dared to think and do. It has been initially decided to develop towards the Southern Jin Dynasty.

"I will go back to Beijin first. When Lan Niang gives birth to the child, we will meet again to make detailed plans around the time of the Three Kingdoms Alliance. Then I will go to Southern Jin in person to understand the situation on the spot." Pei Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.

The support from his partners gave him no worries and more confidence.

"Okay, then we'll see you next spring."

Lan Niang is pregnant, and Pei Xuan is worried. He will leave back to Beijin early tomorrow morning.

Pei Xuan stood up and said goodbye to Liu Yunxiang, "Princess, there is no need to see you off. We will see you again sometime."

Liu Yunxiang smiled: "Okay, to be honest, I have been very lazy recently, and I really can't get up too early. But I will be the host tonight, and Mr. Pei Xiaohou cannot refuse."

"it is good."

After coming out of the jewelry store, Pei Xuan went back to the post house to pack his luggage, and then went to the palace as a guest in the evening.

Liu Yunxiang was walking home with Zijin. When she passed an alley and saw white silk hanging in it, she remembered what happened last night. It was in this alley that the family was probably holding the funeral for the young man, and many neighbors outside were helping with the arrangements.

After the burial, Liu Yunxiang sighed slightly, missed the alley and walked forward.

"Hey, girl, why are they carrying three coffins?" Zi Jin asked curiously.

Liu Yunxiang turned around and looked, and sure enough he saw three coffins being carried out from the yard. The boy's parents were not seen, only the neighbors were wiping away their tears as they were buried.

Someone was standing at the entrance of the alley watching the excitement. Zi Jin came up and asked an aunt.

The aunt's eyes turned red and she sighed: "Oh, how pitiful, this boy was just going to watch a sideshow and was shot to death by an arrow for no apparent reason. His parents were heartbroken after losing their son, and they both hanged themselves at night. A family of three, one night, It’s all gone in between.”

As she spoke, the aunt wiped away her tears and said, "We are all neighbors. We have the money and the ability to contribute. At least the funeral arrangements for this family of three are taken care of."

After hearing this, Zijin returned to Liu Yunxiang and whispered: "Girl, although the couple was grieving last night, they clearly said they wanted to sue the officials and seek justice for their son. How could they hang themselves?"

Liu Yunxiang frowned, which was indeed strange.

At this time, the funeral procession left the alley and headed towards the city gate. The farewell people stood at the entrance of the alley, watching the team go away.

"Hey, Aunt Liu, I heard that you discovered it first? What's going on?"

A curious neighbor asked an aunt nearby, and those who were close also came over to listen.

Aunt Liu patted her chest and whispered: "Aunt Li and I were together. We were worried about him and his wife. When we went there early in the morning, we pushed the door and saw two people hanging from the beams. Oops, it scared us. That tongue Vomited all the time."

"Why can't you think about it so hard?"

"A white-haired person gives a black-haired person a gift, because he thinks life is boring."

"But there is something quite strange." Aunt Liu laughed a little more, "When we entered, we saw that the living room of his house was in a mess. The tables, chairs and benches were staggered here and there, as if there had been a fight. There were cups on the floor. Pieces of the disc.”

"Is there still this?"

"My family and Aunt Li's family also heard the noise yesterday, but because they thought there was a dead person in his house and it was so late at night, we didn't dare to go see what was going on."

"Tsk, tsk, this is indeed strange."

When Aunt Liu saw more and more people gathered around her, she was afraid of getting into trouble, so she hurriedly waved her hands and hurried home.

The people at the entrance of the alley suddenly dispersed. Liu Yunxiang looked at the yard hung with white silk, sighed deeply, and then looked away. Unexpectedly, she spotted Lu Changan, standing across the street. Behind him is the study room. It seems that he just came out of it with two books in his hand.

Liu Yunxiang walked towards him, but within a few steps, she felt very uneasy.

Looking at Lu Changan holding a book, he was dressed in white robes and had a warm smile on his face, as if he was still Lu Changan in the previous life, and Lu Changan should be like this.

But as she walked closer, it was obvious that he still looked like Zhilan Yushu, but she felt that this person was no longer Lu Changan, and Lu Changan should not be like this.

This feeling is very complicated, and at the same time a little ridiculous.

"Prince Lu." Liu Yunxiang put his hands in front of him and saluted.

Lu Changan's smile froze and he said, "Why are we so polite to each other?"

Liu Yunxiang only smiled faintly and did not respond.

Lu Changan sighed, "I saw you across the way, and I was hesitant to go over and say hello. It was better not to say hello, but it became more and more awkward."

Liu Yunxiang turned around and looked across, silent for a moment, and said: "The son of that family went to play on the street last night and was accidentally killed by officers and soldiers of the Wucheng Army and Horses Division. The parents of that family originally wanted to sue the officials for justice. Last night But he was killed and made to look like he had hanged himself."

"Such things are not new."

"The people who killed those parents were people from the Wucheng Army and Horses Division. They were official servants of the imperial court, but they killed ordinary people who had no power to restrain them. How could this world have become like this."

"The law of the jungle has always been like this."

"So that needs to change."

Lu Changan chuckled softly, "I originally had the same idea as you. I was determined to be an upright official and eliminate all injustices in the world. But now I think about it. It's too naive. The law of the jungle is the nature of this world. We can't change it. It can make you stronger.”

Liu Yunxiang frowned, "There is nothing wrong with becoming stronger, but if you don't take the right path, such strength will only make people look down upon."

Lu Changan let out a long sigh, "Strong is strong, weak is weak, it doesn't matter what method is used. Yunxiang, sooner or later, you will understand."

"I don't understand."

See, they used to be able to talk about everything, like close friends, but now every word they say is an argument.

Both of them felt it, so they didn't say anything.

At this time, the hurried sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance. As the people on the street gave way, a man appeared on horseback. Liu Yunxiang took a closer look and saw that it was Xue Changfeng. He was holding a long sword in his hand and his face was full of murderous intent.

He glanced in this direction, his eyes suddenly widened, and then he tightened his grip on the reins. The horse's front hooves were raised high, and he jumped off the horse neatly. Before he could even stand still, he rushed over.

"Lu Changan, I'm going to kill you!"

Before Liu Yunxiang could react, Xue Changfeng had already rushed forward and stabbed Lu Changan's chest directly with his long sword.

Lu Changan was obviously not on guard. In desperation, he put a book on his chest to prevent the sword from piercing his chest. But Xue Changfeng went crazy. When he saw that the sword missed, he gritted his teeth and slashed towards Lu Changan's neck.

Lu Changan is King Suping and leads an army of [-] men, but in fact he is a scholar and his martial arts is not very good, especially Xue Changfeng, who has gone crazy.

This sword went towards his neck.
