"Shao Yan!" Jimo Yuan's appearance interrupted him.
He just watched Sheng Qiyue throw herself into Jimo Yuan's arms, hugging Jimo Yuan's thin waist and telling him about her panic and grievances, and he was completely stunned.
I thought of something, and felt a sense of despair and suffocation that was like the end of the world.
"Your Highness..." Shen Shaoyan showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "I brought back what you wanted."
"Let's talk about it when we get back." Jimo Yuan wiped the tears from Sheng Qiyue's eyes and picked her up as if no one was around. Seeing this, Shen Shaoyan felt heartbroken again.
What is going on?
In Furong Courtyard, Jimo Yuan coaxed Sheng Qiyue all night long, and did not leave the room until dawn. He said to Shen Shaoyan, who had been standing outside all night, "Let's talk."
After listening to the Seventh Prince's account of what happened, Shen Shaoyan was shaky. Looking at the ruined He Mansion, he felt that his heart had been destroyed into ruins just like the He Mansion.
"Your Highness." Shen Shaoyan knelt on the ground: "Since I am working for Your Highness, please return July to me. I can't live without her."
Jimo Yuan closed his eyes and said, "I am the one who has wronged you. All the credit for this achievement will be attributed to you. I will ask my father to promote you and confer upon you the title of..."
"I don't want a promotion!" Shen Shaoyan was extremely emotional: "Qiyue is my woman, how could you touch her? You make me feel cold."
"But Qiyue just mistook you for He Wenmao, didn't she?" Jimo Yuan knew that what he did was not fair, but he was reluctant to let go of Sheng Qiyue.
He finally met someone who met his expectations in every way, and legally speaking, Qiyue was not Shen Shaoyan's wife.
Jimo Yuan said: "I have already confessed my identity to Qiyue. She thought it was me who was with her all along..."
Chen Shaoyan couldn't help but punched Jimo Yuan: "You asked me not to reveal my identity, but you did it yourself... If I had known earlier, I would never let you get close to Qiyue. You make me sick!"
After Sheng Qiyue came back, all she could think about was Shen Shaoyan's face, his embrace, and his breath. They were so familiar that she couldn't help but think more about them.
When Jimo Yuan went out in the morning, she decided to find Shen Shaoyan to find out, and ended up hearing the conversation between the two.
At that time, Shen Shaoyan was very emotional and Jimo Yuan was trying every means to comfort Shen Shaoyan. Neither of them noticed Sheng Qiyue approaching.
Sheng Qiyue's face was pale and she placed her hands on her belly, which had not yet shown any signs of pregnancy. Her eyes were full of confusion. She did not disturb the two of them and walked back to the room alone in a daze.
The details that I had previously ignored are now particularly clear. From the moment she woke up from the boat trip on the lake, the person she was with was a different person.
It's ridiculous that she was misled by the memories of her previous life and thought that no matter what he became, he would still be the young master. She was so stupid.
She laughed at herself, and thought of the baby in her belly, her lips pressed into a straight line.
The pill can last for the first three days and the last three days, so whose baby is in the belly?
If she followed Jimo Yuan, the royal heirs must not be confused. If the child she gave birth to in the future was not his, she would be killed.
If she were to be with Shen Shaoyan… He had saved her twice and was skilled in martial arts, but his status was not as good as Jimo Yuan’s. If she were to be with him, she would definitely offend Jimo Yuan and would not have a good ending.
Moreover, Sheng Qiyue thought of Shen Shaoyan. He was still young and had come all the way here with the Seventh Prince to investigate the case. He must have hoped to achieve great things in the future.
Several thoughts flickered in her mind. Sheng Qiyue thought for a long time and took out the gold she had collected...
Lu Yanzhou returned to the governor's mansion. Seeing that he was injured, Governor Lu just glanced at him indifferently and then asked him how things were going.
When he learned that Magistrate He died in the fire and all the evidence in the study was burned, Admiral Lu laughed out loud.
"Well done. Although we didn't catch them all, as long as Magistrate He is dead, they will have one less witness and will no longer pose a threat to us."
Lu Yanzhou said seriously, "Father, He Wenmao is very abnormal. He knows martial arts. Although his skills are slightly inferior to mine, they are definitely not inferior. If he hadn't stopped us today, the master of the He Mansion would have died."
Admiral Lu looked serious and asked, "Are you sure He Wenmao knows martial arts?"
"Absolutely true."
"Since three years ago, He Wenmao's every move has been under my control. All he does every day is spend his days drinking and partying, gambling and cockfighting. How could he have the time to learn martial arts?"
Lu Yanzhou understood the hidden meaning and said in disbelief, "Father, are you saying that the He Wenmao I met was someone else impersonating me?"
Admiral Lu nodded: "It's not impossible. What else did you find unusual in the He Mansion?"
Lu Yanzhou: "The palace soldiers are very strong. One of them can resist two of us sailors. Also, on the way back, a handsome man in white fought with me. His strength was no less than mine in my prime."
"I'm afraid they were the foreign aid the prefect invited in." Admiral Lu said, "Commander Sun's death is definitely related to them."
Lu Yanzhou: "Could it be that someone from the capital is secretly investigating us?"
"We're not afraid of their investigation. Now that the prefect is dead, we can place our own people there," Admiral Lu said. "I'll have the people under us pay attention. Reduce the daily salt production at the salt works and suspend the illegal salt trafficking. As long as we're careful enough, they'll return without finding any evidence. Don't forget that we still have our own people in the court."

Lou Xinlan was with Madam He when the He Mansion was attacked. When the attackers came to kill them, Lou Xinlan kept hiding behind Madam He. Once when she was almost hurt, she actually pushed Madam He out to block the sword.
Although He's mother was protected by Jimo Yuan's men and was not injured, she was still a little heartbroken. After this incident, He's mother planned to send Lou Xinlan back to the Lou family.
Lou Xinlan refused. In her opinion, even if her uncle died, the He family still had enough money to support her. If she returned to the Lou family, she would be nothing and would no longer be of value to her biological father. He would not give her anything and would only let her fend for herself.
The most important thing is that she has not yet obtained Sheng Qiyue's beauty value, so how can she be willing to go back now?
Lou Xinlan knelt down and begged He's mother, but He's mother was unmoved and told Lou Xinlan to move out within three days, otherwise she would not blame her for being ruthless and driving her away.
Lou Xinlan had to pack up her things reluctantly. She was still a little short of gratitude. She had never been able to think of a solution before, but before moving out, a brilliant idea suddenly came to her mind, and she couldn't wait to ask Lou Yuxiao for help.
Lou Yuxiao didn't want to help. In his opinion, since the prefect was dead, Lou Xinlan was of no use to him. But it was strange that the prefect was dead, so why didn't the He Mansion hang a white banner?
In the end, Lou Xinlan promised to return the money she had taken from him, and only then did he decide to help.
During the three days that Lou Xinlan was packing her things, several major events happened in the city.
