I struggled a few times, but I couldn't break free. The man's face and breath were as gentle as a ray of spring breeze, but his strength was completely unshakable. Even after a few struggles, my hand clamps became tighter and it was difficult to move.

I frowned and looked at him.

And he, without even blinking, hugged me with expressionless face and walked out of the courtyard, walked through the garden where the servants were traveling through the crowd, and walked across the small bridge in everyone's surprise eyes. When the servants and maids guarding the door saw him holding me over, they were shocked and hurriedly came up to meet him.

"Young Master..."

Pei Yuanxiu only glanced at them, said nothing, and walked in directly.

Those people didn't dare to say anything, and they all hurriedly followed.

I quickly passed the path and walked to the temple. I saw the door open. Han Ruoshi was sitting by the table, resting one hand leisurely on the edge of the table, and Han Zitong stood in front of her, holding her hands in front of her. I could see at a glance that her fingers were already twisted red.

These two sisters, looking like they are one master and one servant now.

Han Ruoshi said coldly: "Look at the good guy you used, my words are useless."

“…”

"Who is the master of this house? Are you or me?"

"Of course it's you."

"It's me, so why didn't no one listen to me after these two doors? Is it because they don't want to listen to me, or is it because someone deliberately tripped me up in secret?"

“…”

Han Zitong bit her lower lip, her lips almost turned white. Just as she was about to say something, Pei Yuanxiu hugged me and walked up the steps and arrived at the door.

The two people inside immediately felt it and turned their heads quickly. When they saw us, their faces were filled with astonishment. A hint of anger flashed in Han Ruoshi's eyes, and his hands on the edge of the table sank. The table was lifted and the cups on it rang.

She immediately reached out to support the edge of the table and stood up: "Yuan Xiu?"

Han Zitong also looked at us with a confused look on her face, and seemed to have some gratitude for being rescued. Pei Yuanxiu hugged me and walked in, gently put me on the couch, then squatted aside, and asked in a low voice: "How is it, does it still hurt?"

I just felt a tingling redness on my face, and even a little pain. I bit my lower lip and shook my head.

Han Ruoshi had already walked behind him, and wanted to make a smile on her face, but it seemed to be very difficult. After struggling for a long time, her eyebrows were a little ferocious. Finally, she forced a smile and said: "Yuan Xiu, what's wrong with Miss Yan?"

"She is injured."

"Oh? Injured? Why did you get injured just after you got out?"

Pei Yuanxiu frowned, but said nothing. He carefully lifted the corner of my skirt hanging outside the couch and placed it on the couch, and then whispered: "Lying down first, don't move around."

After saying that, he turned around and stood up.

Han Ruoshi and Han Zitong both stood behind him, looking at him with complicated expressions. Pei Yuanxiu also looked at them, and then said to Han Ruoshi: "Why are you here?"

Han Ruoshi immediately smiled and said, "Something is there, come in and ask Zitong."

“…”

"I haven't been in charge of the affairs of the mansion before. Only after taking over this, I realized that there are many problems."

“…”

"There are some people in this mansion who are really unruly. When I say something, they dare not listen. One thing I told me yesterday morning was not done by night. I don't know what happened, and they were asked to develop such a problem. The family affairs were always left to Zitong to handle, so I'll ask her."

Han Zitong's face turned pale, her hands were twisted, and the corners of her eyes turned red.

Pei Yuanxiu said: "Oh, I know this."

“…”

"I ordered it."

Han Ruoshi was stunned: "Ah?"

"There were chaotic affairs in the mansion before, and there was no one to find the matter, and there was no reason to ask about it. So it was difficult to plan. I specially asked them to return to their posts and blame them. If any thing is passed on, you have to find someone related to the matter to do it. What you command does not work, it may be that the person you commanded is not in place."

Han Ruoshi was confused when she heard this. When Pei Yuanxiu finished speaking, she said "ah".

Pei Yuanxiu looked at her and said softly: "It has nothing to do with Zitong."

“…”

Wherever Han Ruoshi stood, she felt a little ugly at this time, and she said with a reluctant smile: "I'm not blaming Zitong, but just coming in and asking. Since that's the case, then I'll go down and learn more about it, and I'll get started with all these things soon."

Pei Yuanxiu frowned, was silent for a moment before saying, "For the past few years, Zitong has been dealing with the matter in this mansion. You will take over for a while, it won't be that fast."

Han Ruoshi nodded.

She seemed to be a little restless and said weakly: "Since it's okay, then I'll first--"

Before she finished speaking, Pei Yuanxiu suddenly said, "You are here, I have something to say."

Han Ruoshi blinked.

Perhaps it was because of a sympathy, or the woman had a natural alertness and sensitivity to some things. Her face suddenly disappeared, and she was as pale as a piece of paper. She wrote all her panic on it and subconsciously said: "If it's not something important, let's go back and talk about it. I want-"

"It's an important thing."

Pei Yuanxiu frowned as if there was something in his body that hurt so much.

Han Ruoshi looked at him blankly.

Han Zitong also looked at him, a little at a loss, but also felt a little perceptive. Her hands were hanging beside her, and subconsciously grabbed the corner of her clothes.

I was the only one who was calm and slowly tidied up my sleeves.

No one urged Pei Yuanxiu to remain silent for a long time before saying, "The marriage between Zitong and Ao Zhi is no longer possible."

“…”

"But, this matter cannot be put aside."

“…”

"The Bohai King told them to come here before he asked them to come here. It is not necessary to let Ao Zhi and Zitong get married, but it is also possible to let Ao Jiayu marry to Jinling."

...

At this moment, several people suddenly disappeared and the room suddenly became quiet.

I heard someone's heartbeat and someone's sudden stop breathing.

But outside the house, a bitter wind suddenly blew up.

The bamboo leaves were blown rustling, like a surging wave that refused to stop. In the end, the thick bamboos were constantly shaking, and some even bent down. I turned my face slightly and saw a undulating bamboo forest outside the window, as if indicating some chaos.

Han Zitong was already exhausted and stood there motionless.

After a while, Han Ruoshi heard a trembling voice: "Ao Jiayu?"

“…”

"Let her marry to Jinling?"

“…”
