After rebirth, she became the favorite of the powerful minister.

When Yuan Ge woke up, the candle had burned out.

It was still dark, and perhaps because the window was slightly open, there was a cool, fresh air that entered the air from the tip of the nose into the lungs, and it seemed as if even every part of the body was cleansed, as if it had been reborn.

In the dim moonlight, a man stood by the window with his back to her. He was wearing a light fur coat dragging on the ground, with a straight back and a jade crown in his hair. Every strand of hair was combed meticulously. His wealth obscured his already few prides. His back alone made people feel that he was a gentle and restrained man.

Yuan Ge propped himself up and sat up. He turned around when he heard the noise. His cold eyes softened a little. "You're awake. How do you feel?"

"Yeah, it's OK. Why is Big Brother here?"

Wen Peiji made a move to stand up and prepare to go over, then slowly paused. The expression on his face, facing the window, was unclear. Yuan Ge only felt that he should be frowning slightly, with a look of reproach and heartache - she felt inexplicably guilty looking at Wen Peiji like this. Her consciousness wandered everywhere, and sometimes she could hear the voices of the real world intermittently, those of Song Wenyuan, Xu Chengjin, Wen Peiji... Even she herself could not tell the difference between reality and illusion.

To the point that at this moment she didn't know whether the last sentence was said by Yuan Qi in her dream, or Wen Peiji in reality, or whether it was just an illusion of hers.

She was hesitant and nervous, and the more she looked at Wen Peiji's expression, the more she felt that it was meaningful and intriguing...

Wen Peiji seemed to feel nothing. He leaned one hand on the windowsill behind him, lowered his eyebrows and smiled, then said, "You have slept for three or four days. Your husband is almost anxious. You said that you kept calling 'brother' in your dream but you wouldn't wake up. He really had no choice but to bring me here overnight..."

After he finished speaking, he paused, walked to the table and sat down, poured a glass of warm water for Yuan Ge, and then continued, "I have been guarding here all night, and I didn't hear you, but I thought he just wanted to leave, but he didn't trust others to watch over you, so he asked me to be a soldier. Look, it's almost dawn, and I haven't seen him back."

A few casual words dispelled all of Yuan Ge's worries and anxieties. Her heart slowly settled down. She held the warm teacup in her palm and asked casually, "Where did he go?"

"How would I know? He left without saying anything, and his expression looked like he was going to seek revenge... and you." Wen Peiji sat motionless at the table, his face cold as he snorted, "Have you forgotten that you are a girl? When will it be your turn to risk your life for these government affairs? Do you think you have several heads and several lives, so you can do this again and again? This time the news was kept secret, and grandma doesn't know yet, otherwise, do you think she can bear it?"

Yuan Ge was silent, scratching the lines on the wall of the teacup with his fingertips. After a while, he said softly, "I'm sorry... for making you worry." After that, he was silent. There was no explanation, no "I won't do it next time", not even any prevarication, he just apologized sincerely.

If she had the chance again, she would still make the same choice - Wen Peiji realized this very clearly.

He didn't know much about Zhixuan Mountain, and even less about Yuan Ge and his sister. He only heard some things from hearsay. According to rumors, Yuan Ge was a willful, moody witch who was proficient in poison. It was said that almost all the students on Zhixuan Mountain had been poisoned by her. When talking about this person, everyone shook their heads and couldn't describe it.

Wen Peiji knew that the rumors could not be fully trusted, but this person must be a troublesome person.

He turned the empty teacup beside him and sighed earnestly, "Qianqian. You are not alone. You have a father, a grandmother, and a mother. Although she is cold-tempered, she is not a bad person... Have you ever thought about how sad they would be if something happened to you? Grandmother is old and cannot stand shock. If she knew that you were in a coma for the past three or four days and your life or death was uncertain, I'm afraid she would cry every day and lose her appetite. She would have collapsed before you woke up."

"Qianqian, do you understand?"

It's not that he didn't suspect that Zhi Xuanshan was involved in the incident between Wen Qian and Yuan Ge, but the news that Yuan Ge fell off a cliff and died was known to the world and could not be false. Qian Qian was already dead when she jumped into the lotus pond and was rescued. He had already confirmed this with Shiyin, and the two girls were indeed innocent. As for whether there was human involvement behind it, he would investigate it thoroughly.

Wen Peiji's every word was sincere and sincere, just to remind her of her current identity.

Yuan Ge responded with a cup of tea in her hand, lowering her head and looking meek. She looked very weak after sleeping for three or four days. Wen Peiji couldn't bear to blame her, so he poured her a cup of tea and placed it on the bedside, then said in a gentle voice, "I'll keep it a secret from your elders for now. When you recover, take Song Wenyuan to the Wen family for a meal and visit your grandmother." This young lady is really casual. She probably relies on her body to be fearless because of Wen Qian. She doesn't even know how to keep a low profile and just lives her own life.

So much so that everyone felt that the eldest daughter of the Wen family had become a different person since the day she jumped into the lotus pond at her wedding.

It's not just that he has become a different person, his core has changed.

"Okay..." Yuan Ge responded, holding the teacup, looking well-behaved and obedient.

After all, she was still Wen Qian's skin. In the dim light, she looked particularly docile and obedient with her eyebrows lowered. Seeing her like this, Wen Peiji felt reluctant to blame her... After a while, he raised his hand, and gently patted her hair with his palm, "You should rest well first. I'll ask Shiyin to prepare some food and medicine for you."

"Okay, thank you big brother."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was suddenly pushed open by a great force, and the door panel hit the wall heavily, shaking it. The two people in the room looked subconsciously and saw Song Wenyuan, who had come back from somewhere, dressed in night clothes, holding the door with one hand and holding a sword with the other. He stood at the door in the coolness of the autumn night, and was covered in dust.

"you……"

Before Yuan Ge could finish his simple question, a strong wind blew past, and the biting cold wind made his cheeks hurt. The next moment, Song Wenyuan hugged him tightly, and the teacup in his hand was knocked over before he could put it down, and the warm tea spilled all over the quilt. The door that had hit the wall was once again blown shut by the strong wind. This time, it finally couldn't bear the weight... and fell to the ground with a clang.

Yuan Ge was dumbfounded.

"Song Wenyuan..."

She patted the man on the back. The man held her tightly with one hand, as if he wanted to embed her into his bones and blood. He was trembling all over. He suppressed his voice and called out softly, "Qianqian...Qianqian...you damn girl!"

There was a sound of gnashing teeth, as if he wanted to bite off her neck and eat it.
