Shen Cangyun turned around and went out, kneeling in the yard.

The snow had stopped falling, but the cold wind was howling, and after a while, he was freezing cold and shivering.

Only then did he remember that Shen Ruyi knelt in the snowstorm for a whole day and night in order to beg him, and the weather that day was no better than today.

My heart suddenly started to ache.

What on earth did he do to his daughter!

Through a door, the old beggar looked at Shen Cangyun, who was kneeling and trembling outside the door, with a sneer in his eyes. He turned around to give Shen Ruyi acupuncture, "I don't think her wound is caused by anger, but more like it is aimed at her life."

Rong Yan's face was gloomy, "That means you want to kill my father and the life of Da Qi."

Shen Ruyi is not a lucky star.

This title was just something he deliberately created to protect Shen Ruyi after he went to the Priest's Hall and discussed it with Li Xiangyi. He thought that by linking her with his father, she would be safe.

But I didn't expect that even so, she was injured like this in her own home.

Shen Xiao, don’t even think about running away, he’s going to make him lose his skin!

The voices of the two people fell clearly into Shen Cangyun's ears. Shen Cangyun was thinking about Shen Ruyi's injuries and cursed Shen Xiao a thousand times in his heart.

I'm afraid he will have to go to the palace himself and apologize to the emperor for this matter.

After this incident, the Shen family's reputation was ruined once again, and Shen Xiao had no chance to enter the officialdom.

In less than half a month, two of the five sons died. If this continues, the decline of the Prime Minister's Mansion is only a matter of time.

Shen Cangyun was filled with worry and heartache, and he felt cold both physically and mentally, chilled to the bone.

"Mother..."

Shen Ruyi finally woke up.

The heartache that only appeared in the dream is now so strong.

That feeling was like soaking the heart in arsenic, the pain was indescribable.

The hazy vision became clear, and the silhouette beside the bed was not the mother who had been holding her, comforting her, and saying that she would protect her in her dreams, but Rong Yan.

He took off his white fox fur coat and covered her with it.

At this moment, he was only wearing a smoky blue brocade robe, which was not ostentatious, and the color could even be considered cold, but in her eyes, there was an indescribable warmth that overwhelmed her, making her burst into tears, "Your Highness."

"How do you feel?"

Rong Yan held her hand, his voice trembling slightly.

Although it was painful, only an hour had passed from the time I found out she was injured to now.

But in such a short period of time, his eyes as dark as the night were already filled with red bloodshot.

His lips were chapped, obviously he was suffering from inflammation.

Shen Ruyi looked at him carefully, her heartbeat quickening slightly, "I'm fine, but how could I be so worthy of His Highness's protection?"

She likes Rong Yan and wants to marry him.

But how did Rong Yan fall in love with her?

That's too weird.

Because Shen Cangyun is outside, there are some things that cannot be said.

Rong Yan could only say: "You are Ziwei's lucky star, and your fate is closely related to your father's. If I don't protect you, who will I protect?"

As he spoke, Wenrou helped her up a little, let her lean on his arms, and fed her some water. "Have a good rest. Someone will take care of the rest."

His voice was deeper and slightly hoarse than usual, but still gentle.

However, Shen Ruyi heard something heavy in it.

Something seemed different.

She didn't know that Shen Cangyun was kneeling in the yard, so she lowered her eyes and said, "I'm in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and there are still some things I need to deal with..."

"Someone will take care of it for you."

Rong Yan's tone was gentle, but he could not refute it. He glanced outside the door with cold eyes, "The Prime Minister is kneeling in the courtyard. He should know what kind of crime it is to damage the fate of the country."

"Ruyi, don't think about anything else and have a good rest."

“…”

Shen Ruyi was a little shocked.

I opened my mouth to ask something, but when the words came to my lips, it seemed like nothing came out.

Yes, what else is there to say between her and the people from the Shen family?

In the courtyard, Shen Cangyun heard her wake up and breathed a sigh of relief, while expecting her to plead for him.

But after that, there was no movement in the room.

Shen Ruyi didn't speak for him, and even when Rong Yan mentioned him, she didn't say a word.

She still has resentment towards herself.

Shen Cangyun closed his eyes and felt the cold pain in his knees and the cold feeling of his clothes sticking to his body, as if they were not only unable to store heat, but had also turned into cold stones and were eroding his life and health.

This is what he once did to Shen Ruyi.

His heart was trembling slightly.

Was Rong Yan punishing him because he was angry that he didn't stop Shen Yan from hurting Shen Ruyi and damaging the country's destiny, or was he taking revenge on him for making Shen Ruyi kneel in the snow for a day and a night?

It is unknown.

But his eyelids were twitching wildly, making him feel panicky.

It seems like something bad is brewing at this moment.

He thought of Shen Xiao.

If Rong Yan had sent someone to the palace to report the matter to the emperor at this time, would the emperor order someone to take Shen Xiao away?

He became a little nervous.

at this time.

Gu Qinghua hired several doctors, paid them hush money, and asked them to wait for Shen Ruyi to return in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

But instead of waiting for Shen Ruyi, he waited for the killer.

There was a knock on the study door. When he thought it was Shen Cangyun or Shen Yu who came back and went to open the door, he saw a man in black standing in front of him with his face covered and only his eyes exposed.

He was so shocked that his eyes widened. "Who are you? What do you want?"

How scary would it be to break into the Prime Minister's study in broad daylight wearing a nightgown?

Gu Qinghua was shocked and was about to call for help.

Unexpectedly, the other party just spoke lightly and asked, "Is Shen Xiao here?"

Gu Qinghua turned his head and looked at Shen Xiao who was sitting in the corner, "Looking for you?"

"Who is it?"

Shen Xiao was feeling depressed. When he heard someone was looking for him, he rejected them directly, "No, go back to where you are!"

"Then I'm afraid it's not up to you to decide."

The man in black at the door sneered, stretched out his hand to press Gu Qinghua's acupuncture points, pushed the door open and walked in, looking at Shen Xiao, "Shen Xiao, someone wants half of your life."

Gu Qinghua widened his eyes, "You, you you——"

He came here to seek revenge!

Who on earth did Shen Xiao offend?

But he couldn't move and could only worry.

Shen Xiao had studied martial arts for thirteen years. Hearing this, he sneered disdainfully, "Just you?"

He was already full of anger and had no place to vent it.

Seeing the newcomer, he became excited instead, and planned to vent his anger on the other party, "Why don't you go out and ask who my master is, and rush here to die!"

Before he could finish his words, he drew his sword and rushed forward.

"The Six Gentlemen of Pinghu are nothing more than that."

The man was not in a hurry. He slowly uttered a few words and disappeared as a shadow in an instant. When he appeared again, he had pierced Shen Xiao's shoulder with a sword. He turned the blade and pulled it out suddenly!

Shen Xiao groaned, extremely angry.

"You dare to hurt me?"

He turned around and was about to fight back, but was slapped away. He hit the wall and spit out blood.
