I didn’t know that Second Aunt was still alive, I didn’t know that my brother had made a deal with Chu Nan in order to find Second Aunt, and I didn’t know that everyone had to bear so much in the past ten years after the Shang family was exterminated.

The scorching firelight reflected on the faces of the brother and sister.

Meng Qianqian is no longer the same as she was in her previous life, but her eyes and movements when she is sad are almost the same as when she was a child.

Chen Long added some firewood into the brazier.

The chicken leg in Meng Qianqian's hand became tasteless. She asked quietly, "What happened next?"

Chen Long said: "Later, Chu Nan found out the whereabouts of the Second Madam. After learning that the Second Madam had left the General's Mansion, she took the initiative to go to Qianji Pavilion and became the Pavilion Master's concubine."

Meng Qianqian's fingers, which were pinching the chicken leg, turned pale: "Second Aunt must not be willing."

Second Aunt’s body is missing. The Loulan people and Qianji Pavilion will find her sooner or later. She is pregnant and it is not easy for her to hide. Going to Qianji Pavilion is the best choice at the moment.

Chen Long did not make any comments on the Second Madam's choice, but objectively stated one fact after another: "After going to Qianji Pavilion, the Second Madam provoked the relationship between Qianji Pavilion and the Loulan people, causing a rift between them and alienating them from each other. While the Loulan people went to Qianji Pavilion to steal the military book, the Second Madam poisoned the Pavilion Master's son and blinded one of his eyes, and then fled Qianji Pavilion with the child."

Meng Qianqian was heartbroken beyond words.

Second Aunt is the most gentle among the aunts and the only one who does not know martial arts.

My second uncle said, "My eldest brother is always beaten by his wife. I want to find a wife who won’t beat me!"

As soon as he looked for her, he found the shy and timid lady from a noble family.

But for such a weak woman who didn't even dare to speak loudly, I couldn't imagine how much despair and grief she had experienced to make such a decision to endure humiliation.

Second Aunt is the most innocent woman in the world.

It is the pride of the General's Mansion.

Meng Qianqian choked up and asked, "Is my second aunt... still alive?"

Chen Long said: "In order to seduce the Pavilion Master of Qianji Pavilion to drink the poison, she drank it herself. However, she didn't expect that the Pavilion Master of Qianji Pavilion was very powerful and saved his life. Only the Young Pavilion Master of Qianji Pavilion was poisoned to death."

Meng Qianqian closed her eyes and tears as big as beans fell to the ground.

Chen Long recalled: "Seven years ago, Chu Nan found out the whereabouts of that child and was going to look for her, but unfortunately something happened to the Chu family, Chu Nan died, and the clues were cut off. A year ago, Prime Minister Xun found out about my life experience from somewhere and knew that I had been looking for the last bloodline of the Shang family, so he made a deal with me."

Meng Qianqian wiped her tears and said, "You become his adopted son, and he will find someone for you."

Chen Long said in a daze: "As long as I can find the bloodline of the Shang family, it doesn't matter who I pledge allegiance to. I can even acknowledge the thief as my father. I am a sinner to begin with. I will go to the eighteen levels of purgatory after death. This is not a big deal."

"elder brother!"

Meng Qianqian looked at him steadily, "What happened at home has nothing to do with you. You didn't lead the Loulan people here, so don't take the blame on yourself! King Loulan will not let the General's Mansion go regardless of you being there or not. They want to take back Loulan and kill Dad. As for Qianji Pavilion, it has even less to do with you."

Qianji Pavilion...the most important memory was missing from her mind.

But she had forced herself to recall too much tonight, and her head was really about to explode.

"what happened to you?"

Chen Long noticed that something was wrong with Meng Qianqian. Her face was pale and cold sweat was oozing from her forehead.

Meng Qianqian shook her head: "It's nothing, just a slight headache, it will be fine after a rest, continue."

Chen Long looked at her deeply and stopped in time: "Anyway, the Prime Minister told me that he found the second wife's child."

Meng Qianqian understood that Chen Long could see that she was feeling uncomfortable when she was reminiscing.

She tried to hold on and said, "There must be more than that. You are not so gullible as to trust others, unless the Prime Minister gave you evidence that forced you to risk everything."

Chen Long sighed and took out a jade pendant from his arms.

Meng Qianqian took it and looked at it: "It's a wedding gift from my second uncle to my second aunt. My second aunt never leaves it. I loved it when I was a child. Every time I went to my second aunt's room, I would touch it."

"He's going to wake up."

Chen Long suddenly said.

Meng Qianqian followed Chen Long's gaze and looked at Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan frowned slightly, revealing a hint of pain.

After about five or six breaths, he slowly woke up.

Meng Qianqian returned the jade pendant to Chen Long.

Chen Long hesitated for a moment, as if he wanted to refuse, but finally put the jade pendant back into his arms.

Lu Yuan pressed his eyebrows and sat up.

The firelight was a bit blinding, and he closed his eyes for a long time before adapting to the firelight in the small hut.

"how are you feeling?"

Meng Qianqian hurriedly sat next to him and gently pressed his right arm: "Brother has reattached your arm. Does it still hurt?"

Chen Long looked at the empty little bench beside him and his expression turned a little ugly.

Lu Yuan moved his right arm, looked Meng Qianqian up and down, and seeing that she was fine, he glanced at Chen Long indifferently: "Humph."

Meng Qianqian blinked: "Husband, did you hear anything before you fainted just now?"

Lu Yuan asked curiously, "Who is Shang Xiaojiu?"

Meng Qianqian's eyes rolled around: "Shang...Xin's Xiaojiu."

Her original name was Shang Jiu, but only her family members called her Shang Xiaojiu.

After being adopted by the King of Chu, in order to avoid being found by her enemies, the King of Chu changed her name to Chu Feiyan, which had nothing to do with her past.

She just lost her memory, so she called herself by her nickname again.

But she was really dead in her previous life, so even if she called back Xiaojiu's name, her enemies would not think that she was resurrected.

It’s just that Lu Yuan is a bit troublesome.

Meng Qianqian had a face full of bitterness and resentment, racking her brains to think of how to get around this title, but Lu Yuan didn't bother to ask any more questions.

He looked away and looked at Chen Long, who was roasting half a chicken across from him. "You didn't kill me today. How are you going to explain to the Prime Minister when you go back?"

Chen Long was silent.

Lu Yuan said: "If you haven't thought it through, I have a suggestion."

As he spoke, he waved his hand towards Chen Long, motioning him to hand over the chicken.

Chen Long thought he was hungry and gave him the roast chicken.

But Lu Yuan immediately gave it to Meng Qianqian and took the cold chicken leg from Meng Qianqian's hand.

Meng Qianqian is feeling guilty, so why not quickly arrange for someone to flatter her?

"Thank you, husband. You are so kind!"

Chen Long was shocked!

He roasted the chicken!

Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha, haven't you seen it before?"

Chen Long couldn't argue, so he stopped talking.

Meng Qianqian took a bite of the roasted chicken and said, "Husband, what is your method? Tell me."

Chen Long noticed that Meng Qianqian's emotions had calmed down. There were still tears on her face, but the sadness in her eyes had been replaced by a sense of cleverness.

When a person has something to look forward to, he will no longer dwell on the pain of the past.

Lu Yuan knew how to take away her inner pain as quickly as possible.

"Chen Long, since the Prime Minister wants my life, go and bring him my head."

The roasted chicken in Meng Qianqian's mouth suddenly lost its fragrance: "What do you mean?"

Lu Yuan curled his lips: "What I mean is, find Luo San and put on a big show for our adoptive father."
