Zhu Yunqing was not in a hurry to deal with Zhu Lin. He also found it very strange that this matter was accomplished too easily, too easily.

In the evening, Zhu Yunqi rushed back and went to see Zhu Xinyuan's condition first. Zhu Xinyuan had been bedridden for a year and his feet could no longer move.

He stayed and talked for a few words before going to find Zhu Yunqing.

Because of Zhu Xinyuan's death, the Zhu clan was anxious to let Zhu Yunqi take over the position of head of the family temporarily, so as to avoid making the entire Zhu family panic. After all, the Zhu family's assets involved were very wide.

Mrs. Zhu's health showed obvious improvement under Zhu Yunqing's treatment. She was able to get out of bed and walk around these days, and her mood was much better.

Zhu Mansion, back garden.

Song Lanyue and Ye Jinse were talking to Mrs. Zhu, while Zhu Yunqing was sitting aside reading ancient books. When Zhu Yunqi came over, he saw this happy scene.

"Mother."

Zhu Yunqi walked closer and then sat next to Mrs. Zhu.

"My father is seriously ill, and my clan members have asked me to take over the position of head of the family temporarily. What do you think, mother?" On the surface, Zhu Yunqi was asking Madam Zhu, but in fact, he was speaking to Zhu Yunqing.

Zhu Yunqing had no intention of doing this, so he spoke first: "After my mother recovers, I will also return to Qingyun Sect."

Both of them were stunned when they heard this. They didn't expect Zhu Yunqing to leave so quickly.

"it is good."

Mrs. Zhu did not keep him this time. She wanted to keep him before because she was worried about him. Zhu Xinyuan's health was getting worse day by day and he no longer had the ability to control him, so she gladly accepted it.

Zhu Yunqi did not stop him. Instead, he spoke in a gentle tone, as if he was advising Zhu Yunqing like an elder brother, "Since mother has agreed, I won't keep you any longer. Remember to come back often."

Zhu Yunqing was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting him to speak like this, "I will."

Song Lanyue looked at Zhu Yunqi carefully. This person seemed to have become even more mysterious.

*

The night before leaving, Zhu Yunqi called Zhu Yunqing away for the first time. None of Song Lanyue and the other two followed him without permission, leaving the two of them some time alone.

When Zhu Yunqing arrived, food and several jugs of wine were already on the table.

"Here you go, sit down."

Zhu Yunqi greeted casually and then refilled Zhu Yunqing's glass with wine.

As soon as he sat down, he picked up the wine glass and drank it all without any hesitation. This action made Zhu Yunqi stunned for a few seconds.

"Are you not afraid that I will poison you?"

"Poison? It seems that brother forgot that I am now a Dan cultivator."

Zhu Yunqi was stunned for a few seconds, then laughed a few times, "Yes, you are not the same as before."

"What do you want to talk to me about tonight? Has Zhu Lin handled it?" Zhu Yunqing raised his head and looked directly at the person in front of him who looked somewhat similar to him, his eyes full of inquiry.

Zhu Yunqi raised his eyebrows and said, "I just want to tell you something from the past." As he spoke, he poured more wine into Zhu Yunqing's glass.

After hearing this, Zhu Yunqing was about to leave, with no intention of listening any further.

"Three years ago, do you know why you were able to leave so easily? It was all because of your mother's secret help. Do you really think you did it perfectly? After this matter was discovered, your mother naturally gave you a beating."

Zhu Yunqi said in one breath what he had wanted to say for the past three years. Hearing this, Zhu Yunqing stopped in disbelief and was about to leave.

When he successfully left the Zhu family, the first thing he did was to be thankful that his plan was flawless.

Zhu Yunqing didn't expect that he would end up implicating her.

He lowered his head, looking somewhat painful.

"I'm telling you all this just because I want you to stay home for a few more days to accompany her." Zhu Yunqi looked at him and explained reluctantly.

Suddenly, Zhu Yunqing looked up.

"So you found out your mother was beaten three years ago, so you started preparing to poison her."

The two of them knew the "he" he mentioned, but when they heard this, Zhu Yunqi laughed, "Yunqing, you only guessed half right."

Zhu Yunqi narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said: "Ten years ago, I was already preparing this plan."

As soon as the words fell, Zhu Yunqing immediately said: "So, Zhu Lin is yours."

Hearing this, Zhu Yunqi snapped his fingers, admitting the matter, "Yes, he has always been an undercover agent I arranged beside him, just to bring him down completely."

"You feel sorry for your mother, and so do I. Fortunately, I have a good talent and he treats me well. In order to make him believe that I completely obey him, I have to pretend that I didn't notice anything. Even if I did, I wouldn't care."

"I did all this for this moment, for my mother, so that we could be free."

Zhu Yunqing was overwhelmed with emotions after hearing these words. That night, the two of them drank a lot of wine. They both fell drunk on the table. When the servants found them, they were already sleeping soundly.

The original time to return to Qingyun Sect in two days was also postponed.

It was the first time that Song Lanyue and others saw Zhu Yunqing drunk like this. After all, he usually didn't drink at all, and they didn't expect that he would drink like this this time.

At this moment, she also had a guess in her mind.

After Zhu Yunqing sobered up, he planned to leave. Before leaving, Zhu Yunqi and Mrs. Zhu came to see him off.

"Someone is coming."

Zhu Yunqi gave an order, and soon a servant brought a box to Song Lanyue. She didn't react for a moment.

"Yunqing said that you have golden spiritual roots. This is just right for you." Zhu Yunqi said gently.

His attitude was completely different from before. Although Song Lanyue roughly understood that the two had reconciled, the attitude changed too quickly and Song Lanyue had not yet adapted to it.

"Thank you very much, but I cannot accept the gift without merit."

"This gift is just to thank you for taking care of Yunqing." As he said that, Zhu Yunqi raised his hand and handed two more boxes to Xie Changci and Ye Jinse respectively.

With Zhu Yunqi's words, the two of them accepted it directly. Seeing this, Song Lanyue had no choice but to accept the gift.

Song Lanyue knew that they would continue talking, so she drew out the Xiaoyao Sword first, "I'll wait for you in front!" She stepped on the sword and flew out in an instant.

"Fourth Junior Brother, we are waiting for you in front!"

Ye Jinse and Xie Changci naturally understood the little junior sister's intention, and followed after her after leaving a word.

Zhu Yunqing had said everything he needed to say long ago, and at the end he only said, "Well, I'll leave first." He smiled in front of the two of them for the first time in a long time, and it was not a forced smile but a sincere one.

After leaving these words, Zhu Yunqing disappeared.

Zhu Yunqi supported Mrs. Zhu and watched his departing back with a relieved smile on his face.

Finally, after so many years, Zhu Yunqing finally found his freedom, and the love that he had lost and forgotten for so many years.

From now on, he is no longer alone. He has people who care about him, friends and family.
