She looked at the man in front of her in disbelief. All the grievances she had dared not to feel for the past four years, along with the longing and pain of losing her husband day after day, all turned into hot tears at this moment, rushing out of her eyes.

She suddenly collapsed to the ground, sobbing: "Why did you come back just now... Do you know how hard Xiyue and I have been waiting for you..."

Guilt flashed in Wei Qing's eyes, and he gently touched her head: "I'm sorry, I'm back late."

Li Wan was so angry that she punched him on the shoulder while crying.

Mei Ji's eyes widened, and she stepped forward to stop him, but was grabbed by the killer and taken away.

She fluttered her arms and legs: "What are you doing? Put me down! Didn't you see her hitting the gentleman?"

The killer carried her down the stairs with an expressionless face.

Li Wan cried for a long time, as if she wanted to vent all the emotions that had been suppressed for four years.

One of the guards woke up in a daze. He looked around and then tactfully knocked himself out.

Li Wan had cried almost enough, so Wei Qing took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears from her face.

She looked down at her overly plain clothes and said embarrassedly, "I'm not like this on weekdays."

Wei Qing smiled and said, "Xianxian looks good in anything she wears."

A trace of shyness flashed across Li Wan's eyes. She was shy and didn't want to continue the topic. She changed the subject and asked, "Where have you been these years? When did you return to Beijing? How did you find your way here?"

Wei Qing said patiently, "I was in the Western Jin Dynasty. I just returned to the capital at night and went to the Li family. My eldest brother said that you came to Biyun Tower."

Li Wan whispered, "I was careless tonight. I will be more careful next time."

Wei Qing said: "It's not your fault. They both have business dealings with the Li family, right?"

Li Wan nodded: "When my mother was alive, I did a few business deals with them. I can't say that the relationship is too close, but at least we have some friendship."

Otherwise, her brother wouldn't be easily fooled, and she wouldn't come alone.

Wei Qing said, "Xiao Qi has just been reinstated and is being highly valued by Emperor Jingxuan. Even if he is no longer in the capital, few people would dare to provoke the Wei family. Since you have revealed your identity, if they still dare to have any intentions towards you, it is not as simple as it seems on the surface."

Li Wan frowned and asked, "Are you saying there's someone behind them?"

Wei Qing analyzed: "At least he has a backer. This backer is not small and can challenge the Wei family."

Li Wan was stunned.

A cold light flashed across Wei Qing's eyes: "It seems that a lot of things happened in the capital during the few months that Xiao Qi was away."

Someone wants to take action against the Wei family again.

Four years ago, the Wei family was almost destroyed, but now he would never let the tragedy happen again.

The thought flashed through his mind. He saw that Li Wan was silent. He concealed the murderous intent in his eyes and said with a smile: "Why are you silent, Xianxian? Did I scare you?"

Li Wan pursed her lips and asked angrily, "Who was the girl who pushed you in just now?"

Wei Qing smiled: "Are you jealous?"

Li Wan didn't say anything.

Wei Qing said with a smile: "I can't find a girl in my current state."

Li Wan's eyes fell on his legs, and she said with concern: "Your legs..."

Wei Qing sighed: "It hurts a bit."

…

However, after Baili Chen confirmed Wei Qing's identity, he did not return to his own courtyard immediately, but went out of the mansion.

No one knew what he was doing. Half an hour later, he returned to the Wei family, went to the courtyard of Old Madam Wei, and stayed by her bedside.

When Nanny Li came to cover Old Lady Wei with a blanket in the middle of the night, she saw a white figure sitting there and almost thought she had seen a ghost! At daybreak, Old Lady Wei finally woke up.

Otherwise, why would you keep guarding her bedside?

Baili Chen folded his arms: "No, it's a misunderstanding."

Is this true or not? Old Lady Wei asked, "Then what are you doing here?"

Baili Chen said: "The Seventh Young Master, the Seventh Young Madam and the three young masters are back."

Not long after Wei Qing went to look for Li Wan, the carriage of several people also entered the mansion. Wei Ting was covered in dust and dirt, as if he had been punched a hundred times. The three little ones jumped around vigorously for half the night and fell asleep at dawn.

Old Lady Wei was so worried that she was in disbelief for a moment: "Is he really back?"

Baili Chen said: "He also brought back the second young master."

Old Lady Wei was stunned and asked, "Tell me again, who did you bring back?"

Baili Chen said: "Second Young Master, Wei Qing."

Old Lady Wei pulled back the quilt.

Baili Chen pressed down his hat and said, "Don't worry, I have prepared everything for you."

He stood up and moved aside.

Only then did Old Lady Wei realize that the table was filled with white silk, daggers, bricks, hammers, and bottles and jars of poisons such as "Crane's Beak Red", "Arsenic", and "Five-Step Intestinal Piercing Powder".

This is more work than dealing with Gui Bu and Wei Yan combined.

The corner of Old Lady Wei's mouth twitched: "...That's not necessary."

"Which one do you want to use?" Baili Chen seemed to be very familiar with Old Lady Wei's procedures.

Old Lady Wei glared at him and said, "You don't need any of them! The second child is the most sensible and obedient child in the family. If there is one child among the seven who never gives me trouble, it must be the second child. Why do you do all these things?"

Nanny Li excitedly opened the curtain and came in: "Old Madam, the Second Young Master is here!"

Old Lady Wei rushed over, grabbed a bottle of red syrup and poured it into her mouth.

When Li Wan pushed Wei Qing in, she had already laid back on the bed, looking painful, dying, with shocking "blood" flowing from the corners of her mouth.

She turned her head very slowly and stretched out her hand to Wei Qing who was lying in the wheelchair, with a weak look on her face as she was dying: "Qing'er... Grandma finally waited for you to come back... If you had come a step later... Grandma wouldn't have been able to see you... Grandma's wish has been fulfilled... You can go see your grandfather and the others without worry... But if you can't bear to leave Grandma... Grandma can stay a little longer..."

Wei Qing: “…”

Baili Chen: “…”

…

In the yamen, Ling Yun, Gui Bu and Wei Liulang, who had been detained for two days, were suddenly released.

All three of them were a little confused.

This is not the first time they have been in jail. Their families have never paid for their redemption. What happened today? The three of them looked at Su Xiaoxiao outside the door.

"Huh? Xiaoxiao is back? Does that mean Xiaoqi is back too?" Wei Liulang almost cried, "Finally someone has a conscience and comes to redeem us."

Su Xiaoxiao folded her arms and shook her head: "It's not me."

Meiji jumped down from the carriage behind Su Xiaoxiao and waved at Gui Bu with a smile: "Big guy, we meet again!"

In fact, I finished writing this chapter in the afternoon, but I didn't dare to post it because I was afraid that it would be just another daily routine and everyone would think that the plot was not progressing fast enough.

Sometimes it’s not that I don’t want to update, but I’m worried that you won’t like it.

Today is also a hardworking day with over 7,000 words.
