Liu Huan listened quietly. Those words seemed to be talking about himself and others.

Su Yi paused for a long time and then continued: "The mixture of the two memories makes me very painful. I try hard to get rid of the bad ones and only keep the good times we had together."

"I never married again. I only married once in my life."

"I know I hurt you too deeply, and it's reasonable for you not to forgive me. I used to think that if I didn't have children in this life, I would return to the thatched village when I got old. My nephew would be there to see me off when I grow up, and that would be the end of my life."

"My only wish is that you can find a good man who is loyal to you and stays true to you. As long as you are safe and happy, that's all."

He smiled and said, "But now it's different. I know Anzhi and Anran exist. I'm very grateful that you gave birth to them. Don't worry, I won't take the children back and I don't have the right to do so. I just want to ask if I can also fulfill my responsibilities as a father."

Liu Huan had already burst into tears when she heard these words. She had always known Su Yi's character and believed that he was not the kind of man who would abandon his lover. There was love between them, but those memories were like a ravine that separated them into two different worlds.

There is not only love between the two, but more of a family relationship. The friendship of growing up together makes it impossible for Liu Huan to hate him, even after going through so much.

She wiped away her tears and smiled nonchalantly: "I don't want to think about anything else now, I just want An Zhi to come back soon, and we'll talk about the future later."

"Tell me about your plan. I don't want me to know nothing about your plan. Anzhi is my son. I worry about him more than anyone else."

Su Yi then stated in a serious tone the purpose of his coming to Nanchang County.

Liu Huan was shocked, "Do you know who it is?"

"The emperor suspects that it is the vassal king, Li Chao, the King of Yan, whose fiefdom is in Wushan."

Prince Li Chao is the emperor's uncle. He is a bastard prince who pretended to be stupid during the fight for the throne and successfully avoided assassination. His fiefdom is in Wushan.

Liu Huan didn't know him, but she was sure that An Zhi might be in the hands of this group of people.

"What do you need me to do?"

Su Yi looked at her deeply and said, "No, you don't need to do anything. Just take care of yourself and An Ran."

Su Yi thought of the people in prison, "Do you know a man named Zhang Gou Wa?"

Zhang Gou Wa, perhaps, is the Gou Wazi from Heshui Village.

"what happened?"

"It was because he told you your whereabouts that the bandits targeted you."

Liu Huan stood up and asked, "Where is he?"

Hearing this, Liu Huan regretted very much that he was too confident and too soft-hearted and did not let Zhang Gou Wa die with the two thieves.

"He is in jail. I plan to take him to Heshui Village tomorrow. He said that he said all these things because of a woman named Widow Feng."

Liu Huan slumped down on the stool. What else did she not understand? It was that Feng was the one causing trouble.

"I will go there tomorrow too. Even if the government can't prove Feng's guilt, I will make her pay the price!"

After saying this, the two looked at each other in silence. Su Yi took the lead and said, "I'll take you back."

Liu Huan did not refuse. After she returned, An Ran woke up again. She lay down and continued to sleep with An Ran. It took a long time to coax her to sleep.

The next morning, at the entrance of the river village.

"Why are there so many soldiers coming this way?"

"I don't know. Go and call the village chief and the elders."

When people got closer, they could see clearly that there was another prisoner in the middle prison car, and it turned out to be Gouwazi.

"What did Gou Wa Zi do wrong? Why was he forced to come back?"

"It's over. I'm afraid the village will no longer be peaceful."

Widow Feng, who was hiding in the corner, ran away when she saw this, but was quickly caught by Ermo.

"My lord, this is Widow Feng."

Widow Feng pretended to be calm and said, "I, Feng, greet you, sir. I don't know why you want to arrest me."

The soldier who was holding her kicked her knee and said, "Stop talking nonsense. You will know in a moment."

Su Yi didn't say anything until the village chief and his group arrived.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!"

Su Yi pointed at the person in the prison van nearby and asked, "Does the village chief know this person?"

The village chief took one look and trembled as he answered, "I know him. He's Zhang Gou Wa from our village."

Su Yi nodded, "It's good to know each other."

Changyun on the side took out Zhang Gou Wa's complaint and read it. When everyone heard that Zhang Gou Wa was in collusion with the bandits, there was an uproar.

"Quiet!"

The village chief explained: "Sir, although Gou Wa Zi usually does some sneaky things, I believe he is innocent for such a serious crime as colluding with bandits."

"Zhang Gou Wa, I'm giving you one last chance. Tell the truth in front of everyone and you'll be given a lighter punishment."

Zhang Gou Wa immediately opened his eyes and said, "It's not my fault. It's all Widow Feng. She told me to do this. She said the Liu family is rich and the two children are good-looking and can be sold for a lot of money. She told me to tell the bandit leader that."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to do it even if I had a hundred courages."

When Feng heard this, she immediately said, "You are talking nonsense. How could I possibly say such a thing to a scoundrel like you?"

Zhang Gou Wa broke the news again, "You still dare to quibble. Didn't you say that Liu Huan was fickle and seduced teachers and officials, which is why your family couldn't go to school? Isn't it too late to distance yourself from him now?"

Feng immediately looked at the village chief, "Uncle, you know me well. I normally wouldn't even step on an ant to death, so how could I possibly harm Liu?"

She deliberately said, "Besides, who knows if Liu herself was not disciplined outside and offended other people, how can you blame me?"

Su Yi asked with a serious face: "What does this mean?"

Feng then raised her waist and said, "This Liu is so proud of her beauty that she not only seduced the county's Lord Chu and the teacher, but maybe this dog boy was also bewitched by her and resentful of her and wanted to take revenge on her."

After hearing these words, Su Yi's face turned so dark that water seemed to drip out of it.

"What else? Why don't you say anything?"

Liu Huan came out from behind and asked, "How did I seduce them and how did you see it? Could it be that you were there when we were having a tryst?"

When Feng saw Liu Huan coming out, her face changed. Soon, she stiffened her neck and said, "Why, are you hooking up with the county magistrate again? Maybe you sold your child just to get close to the county magistrate, and then blamed it on others."

Liu Huan stepped forward and slapped her several times, "Keep talking, I'm listening."

Feng cried and said, "My Lord, Village Chief, look at her. She treats me like this in front of others, and she might kill me behind their backs."

Su Yi said in a deep voice: "Village Chief, is this how you manage the village? You allow the villagers to collude with bandits at will, and do not repent and slander others in the face of facts. Can I assume that all this is condoned or instructed by you, the village chief?"

The village chief was so scared that he buried his head on the ground, "Your Excellency is wrong, I know nothing about these things!"
