That night, the news that Lou Bufan and Madam Ru were going to be executed spread throughout Qianshan Island.

Min Ningwan hurriedly came to Ji Minglou's room: "Minglou!"

She paused as soon as she finished shouting.

The room was dark, with no lights on. There was only the faint flickering candlelight in the corridor, mixed with a few strands of cold moonlight that cast a shadow on Ji Minglou.

He was half shrouded in the night and half immersed in the moonlight, as if he was cut in two.

Min Ningwan's heart skipped a beat for unknown reason.

She took a deep breath and walked slowly into the house.

Only then did she realize that Ji Minglou was holding a piece of paper in his hand, which had been crumpled up by him.

"Minglou..."

She said softly, "Something happened."

Ji Minglou asked in astonishment: "How did Dad die?"

Min Ningwan was stunned.

Ji Minglou clenched the letter in his hand, raised his red and swollen eyes, and asked with hidden pain and anger: "How did Dad die?!"

Min Ningwan calmed down and choked up, "Why are you being so mean to me? Your father passed away many years ago, have you forgotten or what?"

Ji Minglou gritted his teeth and said, "Really? Did Dad really die of illness? Wasn't he murdered by someone?!"

Min Ningwan's face turned pale: "Who is talking nonsense in front of you?"

Ji Minglou did not answer her, nor did he need her acknowledgment.

He stood up and looked at her with a sharp gaze: "Why did you kill Dad?"

Min Ningwan wanted to deny it, but Ji Minglou's eyes made her feel guilty and had nowhere to hide.

Her eyes soon turned red: "He wants to kill your sister... What can I do? You are also a father, will you watch others hurt your own flesh and blood? I don't want to do that... I knelt down and begged him... I asked him to let your sister go... But he refused... I was forced..."

Ji Minglou's heart was stabbed hard.

He never expected that his biological father died at the hands of his biological mother.

Min Ningwan cried, "Besides, he also hurt you..."

Ji Minglou said sternly: "Shut up!"

He blocked the knife for Ji Wanru.

It wasn't his father who hurt him on purpose.

Ji Minglou turned and left! Min Ningwan knelt down and hugged his legs: "Mother knows she was wrong... You can ask me to do anything... If you want my life, just take it... Mother will spend the rest of her life apologizing to you... But Wanru is your sister... Please save her... Save them..."

"them?"

Ji Minglou smiled sarcastically, grabbed the long knife on the table, broke free from her hands, and rushed out without looking back.

"Minglou——Minglou——"

Lightning and thunder.

A slender figure appeared at the door, flickering in the light of lightning.

Min Ningwan took a closer look, and the light in her eyes returned: "Lan'er! Go and persuade Minglou!"

Lou Lan looked at her with disappointment and resentment, her eyes red.

Min Ningwan: "Lan'er..."

Lou Lan left without looking back. -Tonight is destined to be a restless night.

The entire Qianshan Island was shocked by the news that the city lord wanted to execute Lou Bufan and Madam Ru.

How did Lou Bufan, the leader of Qianji Pavilion and one of the most respected leaders by the city lord, offend the city lord?

In recent years, Xiahou Qing has been very tolerant towards the people on the island. As long as they don't cause trouble in front of him, he will mostly turn a blind eye.

It inevitably makes people feel that he has lost the temper he had when he was young.

As soon as the city lord's order came out, everyone was hit hard.

"The Baihua Palace and the City Lord's Mansion have been at odds for so many years, and the City Lord has never dealt with them. What did the Qianji Pavilion do?"

"Shh, keep your voice down. Can you say such things carelessly?"

"Will the Baihua Palace be next?"

“It’s hard to say.”

"Why was Madam Ru also executed? Didn't she give birth to a little boy? Are you sure she was not executed to become the city lord's wife?"

"I heard from someone who attended the wedding banquet yesterday that the young master was poisoned. It was done by Qianji Pavilion and Madam Ru."

"Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. I'm afraid your news is fake!"

"It's fake! I'll chop off my head and use it as a kickball for you!"

…

The Palace Master did not let these messy news reach Ling Yun's ears.

Ling Yun eats when he should, sleeps when he should, and takes care of his three little disciples.

Jing Yi, on the other hand, acted like a curious kid and went to the restaurant to eat melons. He only came back after eating so much that his brain was swollen.

Just as he climbed over the wall and entered the yard, he was caught by Su Xiaoxiao: "You were hit by Lou Bufan last time, and you haven't recovered yet, and you're running around again!"

In fact, regardless of whether Madam Ru poisoned and framed Ling Yun or not, they would find a way to expose Lou Bufan and Min Ningwan.

It was because of Madam Ru's restlessness that the plan was made more difficult.

As the saying goes, if it rains, it will rain; if it gets married, it will get killed.

The three little ones are playing with building blocks in the house.

Xing'er made a bottle of milk for Wei Xiaobao.

Xiaohu put down his building blocks and ran to Xing'er: "Sister Xing'er, Xiaofu, hey!"

Xing Er smiled and said, "Xiao Hu, do you want to feed your sister?"

"Um!"

Xiaohu nodded.

"Can you feed it?"

"Yes!"

Xiaohu patted his chest and said.

Xing'er gave the bottle to Xiaohu.

Xiaohu stepped onto a small stool and fed his sister.

Seeing that he was feeding the baby properly, Xing'er stopped looking at him and went to fold clothes for Wei Xiaobao.

Wei Xiaobao ate with great relish, and even his little milk sweat appeared on his face.

suddenly.

A popping sound.

The pacifier was pulled out of his mouth.

Wei Xiaobao opened his eyes wide and saw Xiaohu holding the bottle and drinking.

Wei Xiaobao: “……!!”

Xiaohu finished drinking and ran to Xing'er: "Sister, you're done."

Xing Er was surprised: "So fast?"

Xiaohu said seriously: "I'm not full."

Xing Er came to the cradle and asked, "Are you not full?"

Wei Xiaobao: “Woo wow.”

I only drank a few sips!

Xing'er touched Wei Xiaobao's belly and found it was indeed flat.

Xing'er went to make another bottle.

Little Tiger said cutely, "Little Axe still needs to be fed!"

Xing Er: “Okay.”

Then Xiaohu drank up all his sister's milk again.

Wei Xiaobao had a serious face.

Xiaohu went to find Xing'er again.

Xing Er: "Huh? What's wrong with you today? Are you not full?"

For the third bottle, Xing'er didn't let Xiaohu feed the baby, she did it herself.

Wei Xiaobao stretched out his foot calmly.

Little Feet pushed the bottle and handed it to Little Tiger's mouth.

You eat.

Xiaohu opened his mouth and burped.

Xing'er: "..." -At midnight, everyone went to bed.

A carriage stopped at the gate of Baihua Palace.

Since Baihua Palace has stepped up its security, there are even multiple disciples on duty at the main gate all night long.

One of the disciples asked cautiously, "Who is coming?"

"Someone from the City Lord's Mansion."

Along with a mature and clear male voice, the curtain was lifted by a bony hand.

Xie Jinnian walked down slowly.

The disciple said calmly, "It turns out to be the Second Young Master. I wonder why you came to visit me so late at night."

Xie Jinnian said: "Ji Wanru wants to see Palace Master Yun for the last time."

Wei Xiaobao: Take my brother away! 　　Here’s a new article for you to read first: “After Rebirth, I Became a Treacherous Official, Black Moonlight”. You can save it first.
