Qin Peng smiled, her face frank, as if what Qin Shuhuai said had nothing to do with her.

"A gentleman does not speak of strange things," Qin Peng turned around and smiled, "The Regent King has really gone to great lengths to prove me."

"As for the replacement of the Grand Tutor, you know that Wang Ke is my man, and the only person in the world who knows about this is Jiang Yi, besides Zhao Peng."

Qin Peng's heart skipped a beat, but Qin Shuhuai's second half of the sentence made her relax. Qin Peng listened to Qin Shuhuai's continued analysis: "Before the Jiang Yi case, you went to the Jiang family for a visit."

"Lu You is your man. When Lu You came to me, it was around the time when Jiang Yi married into the palace."

"Bai Zhi wanted to kill me. Now I stay by your side and serve you because you want to kill me. You hate me so much because I killed your entire family, so you want to kill me."

"If you were Jiang Yi, all your actions would be reasonable."

After hearing what Qin Shuhuai said, Qin Peng leaned against the window railing and said lazily, "Your Highness has misunderstood. I am really not Jiang Yi."

Qin Shuhuai laughed sarcastically: "Lu You has already confessed."

"You believe what he says?" Qin Peng showed an unfathomable smile, which seemed real and fake. He twirled the round fan in his hand and sighed, "Since Your Majesty has already made up his mind to believe others, why did he come to ask me?"

Qin Shuhuai didn't say anything, he suddenly attacked Qin Peng!

Qin Peng's expression remained unchanged, his whole body tensed, ready to strike. But at the moment when Qin Shuhuai approached, a figure dropped from the sky and suddenly blocked Qin Peng.

Qin Shuhuai stopped his movements, his face was cold, and he called out the man's name: "Liu Shuyan."

Qin Peng was also a little surprised. He didn't expect Liu Shuyan to stand up at this moment.

She stood behind the man, looking at him, feeling somewhat grateful. She wanted to speak, but then she heard "Liu Shuyan" say, "My Lord, you are being rude."

"Since Master Liu is here," Qin Shuhuai turned away with a cold expression, "Then I'll take my leave."

"I'll take you there, Prince."

"Liu Shuyan" lowered his eyes, turned around and saluted Qin Peng. He didn't dare to look up. After taking his leave politely, he walked out with Qin Shuhuai.

Qin Peng felt a little uneasy as he watched "Liu Shuyan" leave.

Liu Shuyan's attitude just now didn't look happy at all. He left in such a hurry, there must be some reason.

She didn't dare to think too much and just waited in the house.

Qin Shuhuai and Zhao Yi walked out, turned the corner and immediately went into a room, changed their clothes and masks. While changing the mask, Zhao Yi asked in confusion: "Why did the prince let his subordinates come to rescue the beauty?"

"Let Qin Peng trust Liu Shuyan more."

Qin Shuhuai changed his clothes and went back.

As soon as she returned to the house, Qin Peng stood up. Seeing Liu Shuyan coming back, she breathed a sigh of relief: "You are finally back. If you hadn't come back, I was afraid you would be angry."

"Liu Shuyan" shook his head, a bitter look on his face: "My own affairs have nothing to do with the princess."

Even a blind man could tell that Liu Shuyan was not happy at the moment. As a suitor, Qin Peng quickly said, "I'll take you to a place where you won't be unhappy soon!"

"Liu Shuyan" raised his head, a little confused. Qin Peng grabbed his sleeve and dragged him out.

Qin Peng first bought two bottles of wine, then dragged "Liu Shuyan" to the moat, rented a whole boat, and urged him, "Hurry, get on board!"

Qin Shuhuai came forward with the wine in his hand. Qin Peng asked him to sit down and said with a smile, "Don't worry about anything. Just drink. I'll take you to a good place!"

As he spoke, Qin Peng picked up the water-rowing pole and pushed the boat away from the shore.

Soon, they were far away from the crowd, leaving only the two of them. It was already dusk, and the sunset rays fell on the water, making it sparkle. There were waist-high reeds on both sides of the river, swaying gently in the wind. There was no sound around them, only the gurgling sound of water.

Qin Shuhuai took a sip of wine and felt particularly peaceful inside.

Qin Peng had such a magical power that calmed his frenzied heart. In a sense, he was still willing to get in touch with Qin Peng. However, there was always a line in his heart that reminded him not to get close to any woman, so he didn't want to get in touch with Qin Peng too much unless it was necessary.

He drank wine and listened to the sound of rowing. Qin Peng rowed the boat behind him and said with a smile: "I used to read about famous people rowing boats in books, and I was very envious of them. Unfortunately, I never had the opportunity. It was not until later that I occasionally had the opportunity and learned how to row a boat."

"No chance," Qin Shuhuai looked into the distance, "Is it because Qiongzhou is a dry land with few rivers?"

Qi was different from Northern Yan. Northern Yan was always vast plains, grasslands, and sand, but no beautiful mountains or rivers. Qi, on the other hand, was like a water town, with rivers crisscrossing it.

Qiongzhou was close to Northern Yan and belonged to a land with scarce water resources in the State of Qi.

Qin Peng was stunned for a moment after hearing what Qin Shuhuai said. Then he reacted and said with a wry smile: "You still believed it."

"You are Jiang Yi, right?"

Qin Shuhuai did not turn around, his voice trembling. Qin Peng was about to speak when he heard Qin Shuhuai say, "I have a very important person."

Qin Peng didn't say anything, just listened quietly. She heard the hoarseness in the other person's voice and knew that it must be a very painful memory.

"She's dead. She's been dead for a long time."

"I always wanted her to live, and I tried many things."

"Qin Peng," he finally turned around, put down the wine altar, walked in front of her, and said seriously: "You are Jiang Yi, right? You died once and came back to life, right?"

"I……"

Qin Peng didn't know how to start. Liu Shuyan looked at her with red eyes and said, "Please."

Please, tell me the truth.

During this minute, Qin Peng saw pleading in his eyes. Although his eyes were clear, it seemed as if tears were about to fall at any moment.

Qin Peng sighed. Facing such a person, she couldn't lie.

She could only tell the truth: "Yes, I did come back from the dead."

Qin Peng said with a look of sadness in his eyes: "But I don't know how to bring someone back to life."

"What about you?!" Qin Shuhuai asked anxiously, "How did you do it?"

"I have no idea……"

Qin Peng told the truth, and Qin Shuhuai took a step back and raised his voice: "Impossible!"

How could I not know?

There must be a reason. How could a person come back to life out of nowhere?

There must be a reason.

Qin Peng stepped forward and grabbed her hand, suppressing all his fear and trying to calm himself down.

However, his body was trembling slightly, and his voice was choked. He stared at her, as if staring at his only hope, and said desperately: "Think about it, think about it again, there must be some clues, how did you come back, think about it."

Qin Peng was frightened by Qin Shuhuai's appearance.

She had never thought that "Liu Shuyan" would lose his composure like this. However, no one could blame him for this. She opened her mouth, but even telling the truth seemed cruel.

She tried desperately to recall and think about everything that happened before her resurrection.

"Let me think..."

Qin Peng frowned: "Calm down and let me think about it."

"Okay," Qin Shuhuai nodded, "You sit down and think carefully, I'll hold the boat."

Qin Peng was pushed by Qin Shuhuai to sit at the bow of the boat, and began to recall how he came back to life.

She only vaguely remembered that after Qin Shuhuai poisoned her, she fell into darkness.

She felt like she was walking, alone, for a long time.

Then she heard her favorite song, which was written for her by Qin Shuhuai and she named it "Thinking of You". It was a song she had listened to thousands of times, so she walked along the song, felt a bright light, opened her eyes, and turned into Jiang Yi.

She thought for a long time and finally asked, "Did she have any favorite songs when she was alive?"

"have."

Qin Peng hesitated for a moment, then said slowly, "Why don't you try to play the melody while reciting her name? If she were still alive, she might be able to hear it."

Qin Shuhuai seemed to be relieved after hearing this.

He finally found a solution!

Finally I can meet Zhao Peng.

No matter whether she is alive or dead, no matter whether she is a human or a ghost, as long as she is still there, it is enough.

"What if she doesn't come?"

Qin Shuhuai was a little uneasy. Qin Peng pursed his lips and guessed, "I guess, maybe, he has already reincarnated and is no longer in this world?"

Qin Shuhuai was slightly stunned. After a moment, he forced a smile: "She will definitely come..."

"Why?"

"Because..." Qin Shuhuai was in a trance for a moment.

Why must Zhao Peng come back? Why?

He couldn't find a reason.

She said she didn't love him, and for so many years, she might not have believed him. What reason made her want to be by his side?

He couldn't find a reason, but he couldn't accept that she was alive but didn't come to see him. He could only deceive himself and said in a hoarse voice: "Because, besides being with me, she has nowhere else to go."

"In this world, the person she cares about most, besides her family, is me."

"Her family no longer needs her. She has nothing but me."

Qin Peng didn't say anything. For a moment, she suddenly thought, if Qin Shuhuai didn't kill her, maybe she would be the same as the person Liu Shuyan described?

Apart from Qin Shuhuai, she had nowhere else to go.

Now, she really had nowhere to go.

Qin Peng smiled, then thought about it and asked carefully: "Excuse me, is this old friend your lover?"

At this time, Qin Shuhuai was reminded by Qin Peng and realized that his identity was Liu Shuyan. He did not dare to rashly add any emotional experience to Liu Shuyan, so he smiled and said, "No, a good brother."

Qin Peng breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "That's good."

As he spoke, Qin Peng frowned and said, "I am in love with the Master. If the Master has a lover, I don't know what to do."

Qin Peng spoke directly. Qin Shuhuai was stunned for a moment, then he smiled calmly, lowered his eyebrows and said, "Princess, you are so direct that I don't know how to respond."

"You don't have to respond, just listen." Qin Peng waved his hand and looked at the sky. At this time, the moon was above the willow branches. Qin Peng softened his eyebrows and said, "It's late now, let's go back."

Qin Shuhuai was eager to try the method Qin Peng suggested, so he immediately agreed.

The two came back by boat, and Qin Shuhuai sent Qin Peng back to the house. When they were about to say goodbye, Qin Peng suddenly grabbed him.

"This is for you."

Qin Peng handed a poem to Qin Shuhuai. Qin Shuhuai took the letter, nodded absentmindedly, and put the letter into his sleeve.

At this moment, he was only thinking about going home and summoning the soul according to Qin Peng's method, and he was completely oblivious to his surroundings.

As soon as the Wei family's door closed, Qin Shuhuai immediately hurried back. Halfway through his journey, his carriage was suddenly stopped by someone.

"Prince Regent," Liu Shuyan's voice echoed outside: "Do you feel comfortable using my face?"
