In the Lin Mansion.

The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, and the mottled light casts long shadows on the ground.

In the courtyard of the mansion, the sweet-scented osmanthus exudes a fragrance that makes people intoxicated.

The lotus leaves on the lake swayed gently in the breeze, and the lotus flowers looked even more beautiful under the sunshine.

The mansion's garden is beautifully designed, with rockery and flowing springs complementing each other, making people feel peaceful and comfortable.

The midday sun is warm but not hot, making people feel comfortable and pleasant.

Sitting in front of Lin Tingwan was Lin Yuehong.

The brother and sister haven't been together for a long time, and now they feel a little uncomfortable.

Lin Yuehong slowly said, "Did you receive Yangyang's message?"

Lin Tingwan nodded slowly, "Got it, thank you brother, if it weren't for you I would never know so much."

Lin Yuehong couldn't help but ask with some concern, "What happened, Yangyang? But the prince didn't let you know?"

Lin Tingwan smiled helplessly and said, "The prince is just afraid that it will be bad for me if I know too much, he has no other intentions."

Lin Yuehong's expression was somewhat indescribable. "The King of Zhenbei probably doesn't know what you are capable of. Daddy admires your ability. The King of Zhenbei is still too young."

Lin Tingwan rolled his eyes at Lin Yuehong, a little speechless, "Brother, you really deserve a beating for saying that."

Lin Yuehong curled his lips and smiled, "Why, isn't what I said the truth? You have been giving me and my father advice from behind, right, Yangyang?"

"Although I am a rough man, I am not a fool. You can fool your husband but you can't fool me."

Every word Lin Yuehong spoke was full of determination.

Lin Tingwan rolled her eyes at Lin Yuehong and said, "Brother, what are you talking about? When have I ever lied to my husband?"

"Okay, okay..." Lin Yuehong nodded, "You didn't lie to your husband, it was your husband who didn't see it."

"What are you talking about? My husband is very smart, how could he not see it?"

Lin Yuehong pursed his lips speechlessly, not knowing what to say for a moment.

It would not be right to agree with Lin Tingwan, nor would it be right not to agree with her. He didn't know what to do.

Forget it, I don’t know.

Lin Yuehong slowly said, "I know, I won't say it now."

After a pause, he slowly said, "Yangyang, I heard that the prince has moved the Pear Garden into the mansion. You should comfort the prince and not be so arrogant."

When saying the last two words, Lin Yuehong's voice was so low that Lin Tingwan almost didn't hear it.

Fortunately, Lin Tingwan knew Lin Yuehong well enough, so it was not difficult to guess it.

"By the way, is there any trace of Pei Yanli?" Lin Tingwan turned his head and asked slowly.

Lin Yuehong shook his head, "No, there was no trace of him from beginning to end."

"Do you know how he disappeared?"

"According to the news, he was locked up by the Queen, and later on, no one knows who took him away."

"So your majesty didn't let anyone else know?" Lin Tingwan frowned and spoke slowly, "But Pei Yanli is a prince after all, how could he be so careless."

All Lin Tingwan could think of was what Lin Yuehong had just said.

The queen locked up Lin Tingwan.

She didn't know what to feel in her heart.

In her heart, the queen has always been kind and amiable, so how could she act like this?

It doesn’t make sense. It doesn’t make sense.

Is it that the Queen hid the secret too well, or what?

……

As the sun rose, a tall man went to the forest, picked up an axe and began to chop wood.

His muscles were as tough and strong as steel, and his skin was dark, as if every inch of it was soaked in sunlight.

His black hair flutters in the wind, making people feel his wildness and freedom.

When he was chopping wood, he was majestic and like a god.

His technique seemed very professional, and every cut accurately hit the grain of the wood.

Next to where he was chopping wood was a pond. The water in the pond was so clear that you could see the bottom, which made people feel calm.

There is a tall willow tree by the lake, standing there like a beautiful girl, elegant and comfortable.

The trunks of the willow trees are covered with golden vines, which are so dense and close that one can't help but want to reach out and pick them.

In the woods, the trees towered high into the sky and the surroundings were quiet and peaceful.

The fish in the lake played and chased each other happily in the cool water.

Birds were singing happily in the treetops, and occasionally flying over the man's head.

The sunlight shines through the gaps between the branches and leaves, casting rays of light on the man's face, and he looks very relaxed.

A long time had passed and Pei Yanli had finished chopping wood.

He picked up a bundle of firewood, left the beautiful woods and returned to the yard.

The sunlight has gradually dimmed, and the scenery in the woods has gradually been replaced by the night. This quiet forest is waiting for the arrival of another day.

Pei Yanli said slowly, "I'm back."

The old lady quickly stepped forward and took the firewood from Pei Yanli's hand.

"You're back?" The old lady laughed. "You young people are amazing. This bundle of firewood would take us two days."

"You are exaggerating a bit."

The old lady smiled and shook her head, "That's not an exaggeration at all."

Wang Pingxiu walked up quickly with the tea and handed it to Pei Yanli.

Pei Yanli subconsciously took a step back to avoid Wang Pingxiu's movements.

Wang Pingxiu turned his head away with an unnatural look on his face, and slowly said, "Sir, you don't have to be polite. We are so familiar with each other, why are you still so polite?"

Pei Yanli smiled faintly and said, "As the saying goes, men and women should not touch each other."

Wang Pingxiu said slowly, "You are really polite."

The old lady slowly said, "Since Pingxiu has helped you, you should accept it."

Pei Yanli said slowly, "If that's the case, it's hard to refuse."

After saying that, Pei Yanli smiled, took the teacup from Wang Pingxiu's hand and took a few sips.

Aunt Wang looked at the two of them and felt at ease.

Wang Pingxiu can be considered a flower in this village.

Because she is good-looking, no one can look down on her.

But the old lady knew it very well in her heart, and how could her daughter not know it?

This shows that he has taken a fancy to Pei Yanli.

But this child looks honest and handsome.

Apart from his unknown background, there is nothing else he can't show off.

But the aunt doesn't care about this.

It would be good if I could marry into the wife's family.

The old lady hoped that Pei Yanli would get better.

Wang Pingxiu looked at Pei Yanli shyly, and her meaning was self-evident.

Pei Yanli was not stupid, so he naturally knew what she meant.

But Pei Yanli didn't want to say anything.

This family was kind to him.

But now is not the time to go back to Beijing.
