Rebirth of the High Family's Beloved

After Yan Ci took Ding Si away from the Marquis' Mansion, Qi Cun appeared quietly.

He bowed to Xie Chengyin and said, "Sir, the person has been taken to the dark room."

"Okay, let's go and take a look."

Since Ding Si left, the secret room in Yongding Marquis' Mansion has been empty for some time. Unexpectedly, this place, which has always been used to imprison enemies, is now used to imprison one's own people.

In the dark space, today Xie Chengyin specifically instructed Qicunduo to light a few candles so that he could see the prisoners carefully.

On the cross, a familiar figure was tied to it.

Her clothes were clean and tidy without any dirt on them, which showed that she had not been tortured.

When she saw the person coming, an expression of admiration and awe appeared on her face.

Xie Chengyin stopped five steps away from the man. The distance here was already very close. If he was not familiar with the person in front of him, he would not stand at such a dangerous distance.

"Four Strings, why did you betray me?"

Sixian struggled with the chains, and a rattling sound filled the entire dark room.

"Sir, I didn't. I have always been loyal to you alone."

"Then why did you secretly collude with Zhao Yunlan to try to take action against Yan Ci? If Ding Si hadn't heard it today, I wouldn't have known that you had such a big idea."

"Sir, I just feel that Yan Ci is not worthy of you. No matter her family background, status, temperament or talent, she is no match for Miss Zhao. What you need is a helper like Miss Zhao, not a burden like Yan Ci."

"I don't need you to interfere in my actions. How much do you know about Zhao Yunlan? You believe everything she says."

"Young Master, you are the same. You believe everything Yan Ci says. How much do you know about her? I have already checked. She was once involved with the son of the Honglu Temple Minister Han family. Now the son of the Han family has become a laughing stock in Dongdu. She must have been involved in this."

Xie Chengyin sneered. It was his fault that Han Liang ended up in this situation.

It seems that his subordinate is not very smart. It was a pity that he used to think that the subordinates he carefully trained were the best swords.

But I didn't expect that there was a blunt-headed one among them that could eat its master.

"I don't know whether Yan Ci was involved in Han Liang's incident, but I was involved. He deserves what he got today."

Xie Chengyin looked at Sixian coldly, "You and Zhao Yunlan are colluding for more than just your dissatisfaction with Yan Ci, right? Tell me, is there anything else I don't know?"

Sixian looked at Xie Chengyin, his handsome face was full of indifference towards her. In the past, she only thought that the young master was a flower on the mountain who could only be admired from afar, but now, when they were so close, she felt that he was more and more out of her reach.

She colluded with Zhao Yunlan just to get closer to the young master.

The young master has four capable men under his command, she, Wu Zhou, Qi Cun, and Liu Xi.

Qicun followed the young master, Liuxi was in the young master's courtyard, and she and Wuzhou were assigned to work outside.

Zhao Yunlan promised her that if she could marry Xie Chengyin, she would let Xie Chengyin transfer her back to the mansion to serve.

Anyway, she didn't like Yan Ci, and she felt unhappy when she saw the way the young master looked at her, so when Zhao Yunlan said it, she agreed.

But she didn't expect that the young master actually cared so much about Yan Ci. Not only did he confine himself for Yan Ci, he also locked himself in a dark room and questioned her loyalty.

She has been following the young master for six years, but Yan Ci and the young master have only known each other for a short time.

She is not reconciled.

Sixian's ferocity only remained in her heart. When she looked at Xie Chengyin again, her eyes had softened.

She laughed to herself, "Sir, do you know that Sixian admires you? Sixian has admired you for six years. From the moment she followed you, Sixian fell in love with you uncontrollably."

Qicun, who was standing behind Xie Chengyin, was startled and stepped forward to stop Sixian, "Sixian, what nonsense are you talking about!"

"Every word I said was from the heart. You saved me from danger and treated me with sincerity. I am grateful for that. I have vowed that I will live only for you and die for you."

Xie Chengyin's cold expression was slightly moved, but his words were emotionless, "Sixian, you are not the person I want to walk side by side with."

Xie Chengyin's words were so blunt and cruel, like a sharp blade that cut a big hole in Sixian's heart, revealing the blood in front of everyone.

She smiled with tears in her eyes, "The person you want to walk side by side with is Yan Ci, right?"

"Yes."

This firm answer sounded particularly clear in the quiet dark room, and Sixian's heart, which had been blinded by jealousy, seemed to become clear at this moment.

She had known for a long time that it was impossible, but she didn't know when it had quietly entered her heart, leading to today's result.

The candlelight shone in the dark room, and the shadows under the light swayed with the dancing of the flame, but one of the candles burned too quickly and suddenly went out.

There was only a moment of darkness at that location, and soon, the light from the surrounding candles dispelled the darkness.

After Xie Chengyin left the dark room with Qicun, he went back to his yard without stopping. As for Sixian, he left a message for her.

If she wants to follow him, she can only be the sword in his hand, and wherever the sword points, she will go. If she wants to leave, the sky is high and the sea is vast, allowing her to fly freely.

As for Zhao Yunlan, who planned all this, he has overreached. It is time to give him a lesson.

-

Shen Furong had wanted to leave the palace for several days and had already obtained Concubine Qiu's permission. However, before she left Luxia Palace, news came that Emperor Tianqing had fainted.

The plan to leave the palace was cancelled.

After waiting for a long time for Emperor Tianqing to recover, Concubine Qiu also agreed after much persuasion, and she finally had the opportunity to leave the palace again.

This time she had made preparations in advance. She gave up all the princess's carriage and ceremonies, changed into neat men's clothes, rode a fast horse and left the palace.

Guard Jin Cheng followed closely behind to protect her safety.

She rode westward all the way to Fengyang Mountain.

She went to see Hua Ci Shu.

It has been several months since Hua Cishu went to Fengyang Mountain, but this is her first time out of the palace to see him.

It is golden autumn now. Although there are no blooming flowers like in spring, the branches are full of fruits. The leaves with slightly golden edges are like butterflies flapping their wings, swirling and falling all over the mountains and fields, making rustling sounds under the light footsteps of horse hooves.

The sky appears exceptionally high and clear blue, with white clouds floating around, like a tranquil painting that makes people feel relaxed and happy.

The plaque of Fengyang Mountain Village was very conspicuous on the highest hill. The crooked handwriting made Shen Furong feel uncomfortable.

You can tell at first glance that it was written by Lin Fengyang, who had not read many books.

Shen Furong controlled her eyes so as not to look at the crooked plaque, pulled the reins of the horse, and stopped at the gate of the mountain village.

Looking at the closed door, Shen Furong winked at Jin Cheng behind her, and Jin Cheng immediately stepped forward and knocked on the door.
