Taoyuan County, the county magistrate's house.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Fang wants to see you."

Yang Xuehai walked in and reported to Zhou Jingyu who was sitting in the living room.

"Let him in."

Zhou Jingyu put down the tea cup, and then Fang Liang walked in with his old body bowed, and knelt down: "The common people pay homage to the emperor."

"Mr. Fang, please get up quickly."

Zhou Jingyu went up, helped Fang Liang up, let him sit on the chair next to him, and said with a smile: "As a wise minister of our Zhou Dynasty, Mr. Fang assisted the late emperor in establishing meritorious deeds. Although you have resigned, you can't pretend to be yourself." You are a commoner, and you are still an official of my Great Zhou Dynasty."

"Your Majesty is serious."

Fang Liang shook his head and waved his hands, and said: "A common man resigns, regardless of officialdom. He just wants to be a common man and spend his old age peacefully with Yuan Xi and his son-in-law!"

There is something in the words.

Zhou Jingyu smiled and said: "I understand what Mr. Fang means, but I really can't worry about Yuan Xi!"

Fang Liang frowned and looked at Zhou Jingyu who was sitting on the main seat. He stood up and said with a plop: "Your Majesty, I understand that you have great love and righteousness for Yuan Xi. But Yuan Xi is now married. Why is the Emperor so insistent?" So, break them up."

Zhou Jingyu looked unhappy and looked at Fang Liang coldly: "Mr. Fang, is this my fault?"

"No, that's not what Caomin meant..."

"I was right, but why are you like this?"

Zhou Jingyu had a cold face. Now, he was desperate to get Fang Yuanxi.

"Okay, Mr. Fang, please go back."

Zhou Jingyu waved his hand and Yang Xuehai came in: "Mr. Fang, I will take you back."

Fang Liang trembled all over and took a deep look at Zhou Jingyu. He did not expect that the emperor would become so unreasonable for Yuan Xi...

Seeing Yang Xuehai leading Fang Liang out, Zhou Jingyu's eyes were slightly cold and he shouted: "Yinlong, kill him for me!"

"As ordered."

The guard chief Yinlong, one of the most powerful men in the Zhou Dynasty, took the order and turned around to go out.

"I can imagine it, and no one can stop it!" Zhou Jingyu's eyes were cold and he snorted in his heart.

In the peach garden on the back hill, on the big rocks by the river.

"Ms. sir, please take me away, to a place where the emperor can't find us!" Fang Yuanxi said to Jiang Chen in sign language with great seriousness.

Jiang Chen looked at her and shook his head slightly: "We are leaving. What will happen to your father and aunt? Besides, how could he let us go?"

"But…"

Fang Yuanxi wanted to say something else, but Jiang Chen took her little hand and put it down, hugged her and said, "Don't worry, no matter what he wants to do, I will never leave you."

These words made Fang Yuanxi feel at ease instantly, and she snuggled into the man's arms, the place where her soul rests...

next morning.

"Jiang Chen, we are going up the mountain."

Several young villagers in Taoyuan Village have prepared hunting weapons.

Although all the villagers in Taoyuan Village have now been lifted out of poverty, the villagers still maintain their simple living habits. Today, several villagers made an appointment to go up the mountain to hunt wild boars to prevent the fast-breeding wild boars from running into the fields and destroying crops.

"Xiao Jiang, be careful..."

Fang Yuanxi, Fang Liang and their aunt came out to see each other off and told Jiang Chen and the others to be more careful.

"Don't worry, we'll eat wild boar when we come back."

Several villagers were full of confidence, grabbed Jiang Chen and went into the forest in the back mountain together.

Fang Yuanxi's right eyelid twitched, making her worried. Fang Liang noticed that she was abnormal and asked, "Yuanxi, what's wrong?"

Fang Yuanxi reacted and shook his head to express that it was okay.

But the next day, she felt restless, nothing felt right, and she always felt like something was about to happen.

"Something happened, something happened..."

Until noon, I saw villagers who had gone up to the mountains to hunt, running back with panic on their faces. Fang Yuanxi, who was harvesting vegetables in the vegetable garden for lunch, felt a thump in his heart when he heard that something had happened, and accidentally cut his finger with a knife.

"What happened?"

Fang Liang, who was sitting in the thatched hut drinking tea, was startled and immediately went out. He saw the villagers who ran back crying and said: "Something happened to Brother Jiang. He was chasing a wild boar and accidentally fell off the cliff. It's unfortunate..."

What, how could this happen..."

Fang Liang was trembling all over and holding on to the villager, while Fang Yuanxi inside was already slumped on the ground, her pretty face turned pale...

"Yuanxi..."

The aunt screamed and quickly went up to support Fang Yuanxi who had fainted.

This news soon spread to all the villagers in Taoyuan Village, as well as Taoyuan County. When Zhou Jingyu and others heard, he was immediately overjoyed: "Is this destined by God?"

Zhou Jingyu didn't expect that he originally sent Hidden Dragon last night to find an opportunity to kill Jiang Chen, but today he received the news that he accidentally fell off the cliff and died. This is not God's will.

"Hurry, prepare your horses. I'm going to comfort Yuan Xi. She must be very sad and needs me to comfort her..." Zhou Jingyu and Yang Xuehai immediately rushed to Taoyuan Village on horseback...

"Xiaojiang, wuwu..."

Seeing Jiang Chen's body being carried back, Fang Liang and his aunt cried in grief. All the villagers in Taoyuan Village rushed to the Taolin thatched house. Fang Yuanxi woke up and looked at Jiang Chen's body covered in blood. She She clutched her heart hard, her tears blurred, and she couldn't believe this was true.

"The emperor is here..."

As soon as the villagers saw Zhou Jingyu running up on horseback, they all made way and knelt down. Zhou Jingyu dismounted and asked the people to stand up. They looked at the door of the thatched house. Jiang Chen's body was lying there. Fang Liang and his aunt were crying, and Fang Yuanxi was pretty. His face was dull, as if he had lost his soul, and he sat slumped on the ground, looking at the body of the man in front of him.

"Yuanxi..."

Zhou Jingyu immediately went up, squatted down, put his big hand slightly on Fang Yuanxi's shoulder, and said comfortingly: "People cannot be resurrected after death, please show your condolences..."

"Yinlong, lead the team and kill all the wild boars on the mountain."

The subtext in Zhou Jingyu’s heart: Kill a wild boar to celebrate!

And in the sky, two illusory figures were hanging in the air, it was Jiang Chen and True Lord Siming.

Seeing Fang Yuanxi's heartbroken look, Lord Siming couldn't bear it. He turned to look at Jiang Chen, who had a calm expression, and comforted him: "God, this is Yuanxi's last calamity. As long as she can survive it, everything will be fine." Get better.”

Seeing that Zhou Jingyu had hugged the lost Fang Yuanxi in his arms and comforted him, Jiang Chen's eyes shot at him like knives, which made Zhou Jingyu's heart tremble. He suddenly looked at Jiang Chen's corpse lying in front of him, and a feeling rose in his heart. An indescribable strange feeling!

"Don't worry, I will take good care of Yuanxi for you." Zhou Jingyu murmured.

In the end, Jiang Chen's body was buried in the peach garden. Fang Yuanxi, who was wrapped in linen, stayed in front of Jiang Chen's grave without eating or drinking for three days, which made everyone feel heartbroken.

Fang Liang and Auntie took turns to dissuade and comfort her, but it was useless, and the same was true for Zhou Jingyu, because they simply could not understand the pain in Fang Yuanxi's heart.

"Yuanxi, what are you going to do..."

Until one day, Zhou Jingyu came to look for her and found that Fang Yuanxi seemed to have lost his soul and was walking into the depths of the river. Suddenly he rushed in regardless of his own safety, grabbed Fang Yuanxi, and shouted: "Are you really this? Are you willing to die for him?"

Fang Yuanxi struggled and cried in pain. Unable to speak, she cried heartbreakingly.

She can't live without Jiang Chen...
