The night in the mountains comes quickly, and the group had just packed up quickly before it was dark.

Lou Er led his men starting from the front door to light up the lanterns throughout the house one by one. The dim candlelight gathered together, making it as bright as dusk.

"I got a tip. I'm afraid tonight will be a little uneasy. If you hear any noise, don't go out. I'm here for you. Don't worry."

Inside the main house, under the lights,

Ning Weizhou helped Gu Feiwan change out of her daytime clothes and put on comfortable everyday clothes. He then wiped her wet hair and spoke softly.

Gu Feiwan has experienced a lot of these things along the way. From being panicked at the beginning to being able to take it calmly now.

"In the past, in the backyard, at most the women would quarrel with each other. But now that I'm following you, I can almost pick up a sword and go into battle to kill the enemy!" Gu Feiwan said with a smile.

It was originally a joke, but Ning Weizhou's mouth dropped and his hand movements paused.

Gu Feiwan noticed something was wrong and turned around to see Ning Weizhou, who had a look of heartache and guilt in his eyes.

"My dear, it's all my fault..."

Gu Feiwan raised her head and covered his lips: "What's wrong with you? I am very happy with who I am now, and it's all thanks to you!"

Ning Weizhou's frustrated eyes flashed with light, and he held Gu Feiwan's hand with his backhand: "Really?"

Gu Feiwan glared at him, arrogantly threw the handkerchief at him, and turned away: "Wipe it off quickly, or I'll catch a cold and I'll hold you responsible!"

Ning Weizhou picked up the handkerchief in a servile manner and held her hair with great attentiveness: "Madam, do you really like your current life?"

"Of course. Look at the capital. Which wealthy lady can travel with her husband so freely? She would have been scolded by others a long time ago. Even the elders in the family have to set rules. But since I married you, I have never been disciplined. When we were in Jiangnan, I thought you would be unhappy living apart from your grandfather, but who knew that you would come to me soon and accompany me every night. What else can I be unhappy about?"

Gu Feiwan rambled on and on: "It's not that I haven't been educated before. I also understand the rules of the family and never make any mistakes. Even if Qingshuang secretly hid the storybook from outside to entertain me, I still couldn't stand those rich girls inside. I always felt that they had no rules and lost the dignity of ladies from a noble family. But now it's my turn, I really think it's great! It turns out that we women can still live like this, and we can walk freely between mountains and rivers like men, and no longer just guard the small acres behind. If you want to talk about danger, where is not dangerous? The backyard is not a comfortable home, sometimes it can also be fatal! Besides, how many women in the backyard never leave the house, but still die unclearly? Maybe they will be splashed with a basin of dirty water, and they will not be at peace even after death!"

Gu Feiwan spoke calmly at first, but later on, he couldn't help but get a little angry!

Ning Weizhou's eyes darkened: "I know I suffered in the past, I will never let that family go!"

Gu Feiwan finally came back to his senses. He had unknowingly recalled many of the pains of his past life. Comparing it to his current life, it really felt like a world of difference!

She took out a letter from her dressing box. "This is the news from the capital yesterday. My eldest brother has brought the prisoners from Jiangnan to the capital. After some interrogation, a series of officials from the capital were exposed. Weiwu Hou Shen Zhili naturally did not escape and was the first one to be exposed!"

Ning Weizhou naturally knew about these things. Gu Feiwan had his own information channels, and he also knew that

But since Gu Feiwan didn't mention it, Ning Weizhou didn't mention it either, for fear that she didn't want to mention it and that it would disturb her interest in traveling.

Now that Gu Feiwan had delivered the letter, he had the chance to start talking: "The imperial report from the capital said that when the people from the Dali Temple came to his house, Shen Zhili was paralyzed in bed. He thought he could avoid jail, but the Dali Temple didn't buy it. They just lifted their hands and feet and carried him to the Dali Temple jail in public. The onlookers threw a lot of rotten vegetable leaves along the way. When he arrived at the Dali Temple, this mighty marquis became a vegetable basket!"

The letter that Gu Feiwan handed over read:

"Five people came out of the Dali Temple. Two of them lifted Shen Zhili's hands, two lifted his feet, and one used a rope to hang up Shen Zhili's head. They carried him out of the main gate of the Weiwu Marquis's mansion like they were slaughtering a pig during the New Year! During that time, a concubine was crying bitterly while holding her baby. The wife of the Weiwu Marquis, Xiao Shuxue, was very calm. She just said that she had a divorce letter and that no matter how serious the crime Shen Zhili committed, it had nothing to do with her! Shen Zhili kept cursing all the way, saying things like "a heartless person" and "a vicious woman". But before he even got to the Dali Temple, he fainted..."

Ning Weizhou smiled and said, "Your characters are really detailed and make people feel like they are there!"

"My people were just nagging a little, but I wonder which expert came up with such a disgusting method in the Dali Temple?"

As he spoke, Gu Feiwan glanced at Ning Weizhou.

Ning Weizhou snickered: "Disgusting? No, right? Doesn't this big guy look very happy?"

"Yes, I'm very happy too!" Gu Feiwan glanced over, and Ning Weizhou smiled:

"As long as it can make my wife happy!"

As they were talking, a sharp whistle suddenly sounded outside the door, followed by a series of whistle sounds that came from far away and then near.

Ning Weizhou folded the handkerchief and hugged Gu Feiwan: "Don't worry, my lady, everything is under your control. In less than half an hour, your husband will be back to accompany you to sleep."

Gu Feiwan straightened his collar for him: "Still be careful, don't be careless, I'll wait for you."

Ning Weizhou strode away, and Qingshuang and Nanny Zhu came in.

"Madam, we're only here on the first night and someone has already attacked us. This is really too much!"

Nanny Zhu lit two more lamps and said, "What are you saying? Can the bad guys wait until you have rested enough and sharpened your knife before coming? Then they can't be called bad guys. They should be called upright gentlemen!"

Gu Feiwan laughed when he heard this. He remembered that when they were attacked for the first time, Nanny Zhu's face turned pale with fright, and her legs were shaking so much that she couldn't get up for a long time. But now she can talk and laugh happily. It turns out that everyone needs exercise!

Qing Shuang was teased, stuck out her tongue, and went to the bed with the incense.

Suddenly, the door was slammed open and a person fell in!

Nanny Zhu was closest to the outside and was startled. She turned around to look, only to see a bloody person!

Qingshuang threw down the quilt, rushed in front of Gu Feiwan, and opened her arms to protect him!

"Sorry! I didn't stop. I'll clean it up right away!"

Another figure rushed in, clasped his fists and apologized, then picked up the person on the ground and threw him out!

Nanny Zhu almost threw the candlestick in her hand, but luckily she took it back in time.

Just as she put down the candlestick and was about to close the door,

Two more people broke in!
