The scumbag wanted to wipe out the whole family, but rebirth ruined him!

"Hmph... wait until we finish talking about the serious business, it won't be too late for my sister to faint!"

Zhao Huayin looked at the disheveled Yu Ying'er in front of him, with a fire brewing in his heart.

How could I be so stupid in my previous life that I was framed by such a person and lost everything?

If Yan Qi were allowed to take the person away, at most she would suffer some physical pain, but if that were all, wouldn't it be too easy for her?

"Since my sister is awake, why don't we talk about what happened today!"

Zhao Huayin looked at Yu Ying'er with a smile.

"After all, we are sisters, and I can't bear to send my sister to a place like the City Defense Camp.

Actually, this is also our family affair. My sister wanted to express her feelings to her lover, but she was careless and took the wrong thing. Right?"

Yu Ying'er was particularly afraid of being taken away by Yan Qi. At this time, Zhao Huayin was smiling and persuading her, so she had no time to care about anything else.

He nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes! Yes! I just took the wrong thing. Sister, can you please not blame me?"

"But my sister is not familiar with the scholar, so why would she give him something? I'm afraid the Fourth Prince won't believe it."

After Zhao Huayin finished speaking, Yan Qi cooperated very well and stared at Yu Ying'er, his eyes seemed to want to see through her.

"No, no!"

Yu Ying'er did not dare to delay and spoke immediately.

"Zhou Pei and I are from the same hometown and we knew each other before!"

Oh? So we are from the same hometown.

Zhao Huayin continued to ask without showing any emotion.

"We are just fellow villagers. It's not worth going out of our way to send something."

"It seems that this is not Miss Zhao's family affair. Maybe she said this just to shirk responsibility. Why don't we let our city defense battalion investigate?"

Mu Xiao, who had received several cold stares from Yan Qi, spoke up.

This time Yan Qi finally didn't glare at Mu Xiao, and Mu Xiao seemed encouraged.

"How can an unmarried girl visit her fellow townsman in prison? It would be fine if she had an engagement."

"Take the person away."

After Yan Qi gave this order, he was about to leave.

Zhao Huayin was a little surprised that Yan Qi actually cooperated with her so well, as if they had discussed it in advance.

Before Zhao Huayin could think about it, a guard in black armor walked in from the door, stepped forward, grabbed Yu Ying'er's wrist and was about to drag her out.

Yu Ying'er's wrist was pulled so hard that it hurt. She looked at the expressionless guard and screamed in fear.

"Ah! Stop! You can't take me away. Zhou Pei and I are indeed engaged!"

"I just went to visit my fiancé, and in a moment of haste I took the wrong thing. That's right! That's it."

Hearing Yu Ying'er's words, Zhao Huayin raised his eyebrows and snorted in his heart, this is what I've been waiting for.

"Words are not enough. If you want the Fourth Prince to believe what you say, I'm afraid I'll have to produce evidence."

Yu Ying'er didn't dare to hesitate any longer and hurriedly took out a heart-shaped pendant from her arms.

"I only have half of this love pendant. The other half is on him. It was the token of our engagement. Your Highness the Fourth Prince can check it out."

Mu Xiao took the heart-shaped pendant from Yu Ying'er's hand and looked at it carefully.

"I handled Zhou Pei's personal belongings. I remember that there was indeed a similar jade pendant among them."

After saying that, he handed the Tongxin Pendant to Yan Qi.

Yan Qi did not reach out to take it, but just glanced at it casually.

"Don't show me this kind of thing."

Zhao Huayin recognized this heart-shaped pendant. After she married Zhou Pei in her previous life, she had seen Zhou Pei stroking this jade pendant several times.

At that time, Zhou Pei said that this was his mother's relic.

Oh! What a young "mother".

Very good, as long as we have this evidence, and we have passed it through the eyes of the people in the city defense camp, the rest of the things will be easy.

There was a slight flicker of coldness in Zhao Huayin's eyes. How could she have been so blind and heartless in her previous life that she was played around by such ridiculous people.

Yan Qi took in all the subtle expressions on Zhao Huayin's face and continued calmly,

"It's common for our city defense battalion to raid homes and handle cases, but I never thought that there would be a time when we could help people get married. That's new."

Yan Qi cast an inquiring look at Minister Zhao.

"If this is truly a family affair of the Shangshu Mansion, the City Defense Battalion has no reason to interfere."

This woman has ulterior motives and is plotting against the Shangshu Mansion. The guy in the prison is not a good guy either. It's perfect to put these two together.

The meaning is very clear. If the Shangshu Mansion approves this marriage, the City Defense Battalion will not be involved.

Yu Ying'er stared at Minister Zhao eagerly, almost begging him.

"Sir, please accept it!"

This girl is too calculating and will be a nuisance if she stays in the mansion. It would be better to arrange the marriage and marry her off sooner.

Thinking of this, Minister Zhao agreed.

"Since this marriage was arranged by the elders of both families when we were young, there is no reason to cancel it easily. Your Highness, thank you for troubling me to make this trip. I have troubled you to take care of my family affairs."

Yan Qi didn't say anything else, just nodded slightly and walked out.

When he walked up to Zhao Huayin, Yan Qi couldn't help but take another look at the Mingyuejue in Zhao Huayin's hand.

Thinking of the way Zhao Huayin had patiently persuaded and pressed Yu Ying'er just now, Yan Qi curled the corners of his mouth slightly. The little girl looked quite fierce just now.

As long as he is there, he will do his best to protect her.

Seeing Yan Qi walk out, Yu Ying'er finally got up from the ground.

The two maids who had been standing in the corner of the reception room dared to come over and help Yu Ying'er up.

Yu Ying'er stood up sobbing and walked timidly to Zhao Huayin.

"elder sister……"

If it were in the past, Zhao Huayin would definitely feel soft-hearted when she saw Yu Ying'er's pitiful appearance.

Zhao Huayin hated every time she had been soft-hearted in the past.

If I hadn't been soft-hearted, I wouldn't have brought this vicious woman home and brought harm to my entire family.

Yu Ying'er was an orphan picked up by Zhao Huayin. How could she dare to do this!

Her fate was in the hands of Zhao Huayin!

"Since my sister has already been engaged, she should not go out from today onwards. Just stay home and prepare for the wedding!"

There seemed to be no expression on Zhao Huayin's face and her tone was slightly cold.

Yu Ying'er looked at Zhao Huayin who was standing coldly, and then looked at Minister Zhao who had a serious face. In the end, she didn't dare to speak and turned around and left.

Zhao Huayin gave Liuyun a wink, and Liuyun hurriedly followed. Yu Ying'er should not think about going out before she gets married.

When Dianxue accompanied Zhao Huayin back to the house, she whispered to Zhao Huayin,

"Girl, it seems like the Fourth Prince has been helping us all day long."

Zhao Huayin was stunned for a moment. Dianxue was right, but why?

Moreover, Zhao Huayin discovered that Yan Qi was not as unkind as rumored, and seemed... quite gentle?

"Although I don't know why he helped us, it is a fact that he helped us. Let's find a suitable opportunity to give him a thank you gift!"
