Although Ling Xuan'er was grounded, there was still news. Ling Yi came to the manor every now and then. Ling Xuan'er didn't believe it if he said he wasn't interested in Tang Xin.

"Yes, I took note of it."

"and then?"

"It's gone?"

Seeing that Tang Xin's face was dull, Ling Xuan'er blinked in confusion. That useless Ling Yi didn't capture anyone at all.

"Xin'er, you can't just watch him bully me like that."

"You have to help me stand up." Ling Xuan'er shook Tang Xin's sleeves.

"This is your brother and sister's business." Tang Xin lightly pursed her red lips. She was not a fool. She had learned something about the situation these days. Plus Ling Xuan'er's thoughts were not well hidden, so Tang Xin already knew her intentions.

"If you become my sister-in-law, you will no longer be an outsider." Ling Xuan'er laughed.

"Miss Ling, I have no intention of staying in Qin Country for a long time."

"I will repay your life-saving grace in other ways." Tang Xin spoke calmly, leaving no room for error in his words.

Ling Xuan'er let go of her hand, "Tang Xin, I really like you. As time goes by, you will find out how good my elder brother is."

"Why bother clinging to a heartless and unjust person."

Seeing that Tang Xin's eyes did not waver at all, Ling Xuan'er shrugged, sat down on the chair, held his chin, and said feebly:

"Xin'er, isn't there a saying that says, "You have to pledge yourself to save your life"? Although we can't do it, you and my eldest brother can."

"The guard who saved you is my eldest brother's man."

"It makes sense."

"Don't worry, in the Ling family, as long as I'm here to protect you, no one will dare to bully you." Ling Xuan'er promised.

"Miss Ling, I want to get close to you, so don't let me bother running away."

"Why did you do that!" Ling Xuan'er stomped her feet angrily and walked away angrily.

Although she verbally disliked Ling Yi, she respected him in her heart. Tang Xin's decisive attitude made Ling Xuan'er angry.

Why, her eldest brother can't compare to that ruthless and unjust Liao Ji?

After hearing the news, Ling Yi gently rubbed his forehead and sent Ling Xuan'er out to enjoy the mountains and rivers.

The reason why she was no longer grounded was that Ling Yi knew that Ling Xuan'er's patience was at its limit. If she was locked up any longer, she would burn the house down.

"Don't take Xuan'er's joke to heart. I just appreciate Miss Tang, not covet her." Ling Yi looked at Tang Xin and spoke seriously.

"My injuries are no longer serious. I am grateful to Mr. Ling and Miss Ling for taking care of me. When I return to Daqian, the Tang family will definitely send me a thank you gift."

Tang Xin opened his lips in a distant and polite manner.

Ling Yi shook his head and smiled, "If it had been before, I would have obeyed you, after all, I made the promise earlier in the morning."

"But this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult."

"In recent days, Qin State has not been peaceful."

"Slow down."

"I wonder, can I send a letter?" Tang Xin did not force him, but took a step back.

Ling Yi wouldn't let him go. Even if she persisted, it would be in vain.

"It's not too convenient."

"If you have already written it, you can give it to me. When the time comes, I will send it out." Ling Yi said with a slightly condensed expression.

"Good work."

Tang Xin asked Mo Shu to take the letter and give it to Ling Yi.

"Miss, will Master Ling really deliver the letter to the eldest son?" After returning to the house, Mo Shu said with a worried look on his face.

Tang Xin looked far away, "We have no other choice but to believe in him."

Back at Ling's house, Ling Yi asked everyone to retreat and opened the letter. After reading it carefully, Ling Yi had a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Tang Xin's letter did not reveal anything except a few words about recent developments.

It doesn't hurt to give it away.

Calling the attendant, Ling Yi was about to hand the letter to him.

When he was about to speak, he paused.

"Just step back."

After waving away the attendant, Ling Yi put the letter into the secret box.

...

"I said, it's shameful for you to drink alcohol every day without showing any sign of it."

Li Yi glanced sideways at Fengqi.

Feng Qi raised his head and drank the drink, "Brother Si, I really envy you."

"Why, do you like my wife?"

Feng Qi choked on his drink and coughed, "Brother Si, you really dare to tell any joke."

"My mother can't tolerate Qier. She does it again and again. Her thoughts are so poisonous that it makes people's hair stand on end."

Feng Qi cried and laughed, "I sent her to the family temple, but she threatened to die. Brother Si, did she have to force me to death before she would give up?"

"Feng Qi, you have to be ruthless when you need to be ruthless. Your mother obviously knows your temper and has a handle on you."

"If you don't do one thing or the other, you won't stop. Send people as far away as possible."

"Anyway, you don't intend to be a filial son." Li Yi said casually while sipping his wine.

Feng Qi supported the stone table, raised his eyes, and opened his sleepy eyes. He stood up suddenly and threw the wine bottle, "Just do it!"

Looking at the broken wine bottle, Li Yi's face darkened, "Do you know how expensive it is?"

"My wife already dislikes me for not being able to make any money, and you are still doing such a wasteful thing. Please be honest and compensate me!"

"Si Jian, you are becoming less and less impressive." Feng Qi swayed towards Li Yi.

"You were clearly not like this before."

"That will be the experience period, and your attitude will naturally come as you wish. Now, you kid has let me master everything. You can't run away even if you want to. Who else is pretending to you?"

"If you're not honest, I'll send you to the Criminal Department in a minute."

Li Yi raised his eyebrows and spoke arrogantly.

Feng Qi held his waist and smiled, "Si Jian, just scare me."

"frighten?"

Li Yi played with the empty wine glass and raised the corners of his lips, "Do you know that nine times out of ten times you have been drunk, you have lost your composure."

"To scold the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty is just spitting."

"I almost applauded you."

"You should be lucky to be here with me. If you had to change places, grass would have grown on your grave."

"By the way, just in case you refused to admit it after you sobered up, I specially encouraged you and left a blood letter."

"Every word is filled with resentment towards the Second Emperor."

"Fengqi, you guys need to know what's going on."

"Should we be brothers, or should I send you to the Ducha Division? I'll give you three seconds to make a decision."

Feng Qi looked at Li Yi. After a few glances, he rolled his eyelids and said, "You actually plotted against me."

"With ulterior motives."

"It's a waste of my sincerity to you, you are really unreliable!"

Feng Qi pointed at Li Yi and spoke angrily.

"It's my fault that I didn't see through your true face."

"I just want to ask you, what are your intentions?"

"You are not very strict with your words when you are drunk. I definitely can't tell you the secrets."

Li Yi pulled Feng Qi to the side chair in disgust to prevent him from spraying his face with saliva again.

"What I can tell you is that we have the same goal."

"I also hate the Second Emperor."

"Not just verbally, but also behaviorally." Li Yi spoke slowly.

Fengqi slapped himself in the face to sober up.

"who are you?"

"Did the State of Qin send you here?"

"No, you don't have to believe me, but you have to believe in Sheng Yun. For things like collaborating with the enemy and treason, her father can kill her."

Fengqi nodded his head, "So..."

Before he finished asking, Fengqi fell on the table.
