In the end, Zhou Siheng was blinded by a single thought and mistakenly believed that he was forced to accept threats, but he didn't expect that he was actually receiving a favor for no reason.
No wonder Xie Yunxiu has always been targeting him and not treating him well.
But he and Xie Yunqi have no relationship, so why would Xie Yunqi save him?
Xie Yunxiu saw through Zhou Siheng's thoughts and sneered, "He saved you without expecting you to repay him. If you really want to repay him, then work hard. If you have nothing else to do, don't bother him with your trivial matters."
"Prince Qin said that it was my cousin who told him about Lin Wanru and me. I always thought it was my cousin who was interfering. I didn't expect it to be him..."
"Even if it was Fifth Brother who did it, what do you think of Lin Wanru? Not only is she involved with you, but even Uncle Chen has been involved with her. Besides, my Sixth Brother is also completely bewitched by her and has always wanted to take her as a concubine. What's so worthy of your affection for such a fickle and shameless woman?"
Zhou Siheng's face flushed, he didn't know if it was from anger or annoyance. "You're talking nonsense, Miss Lin didn't..."
"Zhou Jingxuan, are you blind? Don't you have spies? Just check and you'll know." Xie Yunxiu snorted coldly and said, "Come on, show him away."
Zhou Siheng didn't know how he got out of Prince Zhuang's Mansion. By the time he realized what was happening, he had already boarded the carriage.
The attendant Qing Ran looked worried and asked, "Sir, what's wrong with you?"
"Qing Ran, do you think I was wrong?"
"I don't understand what you are talking about, sir."
"Nothing." Zhou Shiheng looked at the jade bottle in his hand, lost in thought.
"Qing Ran, go check who Lin Wanru has been in close contact with. I want to know all the details."
"yes."
Qing Ran was extremely efficient. Within five days, a pile of letters filled the desk in Zhou Siheng's study.
After reading it, Zhou Siheng realized how wrong he was before.
He always thought that he was different to Lin Wanru, but he didn't expect that he was just an insignificant chess piece in Lin Wanru's hands.
Perhaps, at first, Lin Wanru didn't think too much about it when she saved her. But after learning his identity, she felt at ease to let him help her.
The things he had sorted out before were given to King Chen by Lin Wanru as a gift.
Prince Chen was able to achieve what he had today thanks to his support. However, the credit did not go to him, but was instead attributed to Lin Wanru.
She used her gratitude to assist King Chen and used him to make a fortune.
No matter how much kindness you receive, it will disappear if you keep taking advantage of it.
Lin Wanru has always loved Prince Chen and has never liked him.
The meaning of his existence is to help others, which makes it difficult for Zhou Siheng, who has always been arrogant, to accept the fact.
He offended the King of Qin and the King of Zhuang for Lin Wanru, risking his life to save her. But she ended up in a romantic relationship with the King of Chen. Was this love worth it?
No wonder Xie Yunxiu scolded him so harshly. He was really stupid and didn't even realize it.
Qing Ran couldn't bear to see Zhou Siheng continue to suffer, so she advised, "I know you owe Miss Lin a favor, but even the most generous favors must be repaid. Do you intend to help her forever?"
"Qing Ran, do you think I'm stupid?"
"I dare not say anything. I only know that Miss Lin used you to do many wrong things. If it weren't for you, sir, covering up the secret meeting between Miss Lin and Prince Chen, she would have been thrown into the pig cage. Sir, there is no need to blame yourself. She is the one who decides her own life. It has nothing to do with you."
"Really?" Zhou Siheng laughed at himself, "King Zhuang said I was stupid and ignorant, but I didn't believe it. I always believed that she hadn't lied to me. In my heart, she was always pure and innocent. And what happened?"
The result was a slap in the face. What he had always treasured was nothing in the eyes of others.
"Sir, please don't be so stubborn. Miss Lin never thought about you, so why did you work so hard for her?" Qing Ran sighed heavily and continued, "What's more, you now owe more than just Miss Lin a favor. How do you plan to repay the King of Qin?"
Yes, Xie Yunqi had given him a second life and supported him. How could he repay him for all this?
"In my opinion, you are too soft-hearted. The Lin family is of such high status that if it weren't for your help, Miss Lin would still be a boudoir lady and would never have been favored by Prince Chen. I thought you had done your utmost for Miss Lin, so why would you risk your life for her?
To put it bluntly, if Miss Lin ever gets into a catastrophic disaster, are you planning to sacrifice your entire family's life for Miss Lin's?
The truth about Qing Ran had to be revealed. Zhou Siheng, who had been under a spell, actually planned to trade his entire family for Lin Wanru's peace.
Fortunately, he was not poisoned too seriously and there was still a possibility that he would come to his senses and turn back.
"Qingran, prepare the horse."
Qing Ran was startled and said, "Sir, where are you going? You can't go to the Lin Mansion."
"Go to Lanzhou."
Lanzhou? Isn't that the fiefdom of the King of Qin? Why go there? "Sir, have you forgotten that you are still working in the Ministry of Works? If you leave, should you say hello to Lord Chen?"
"Yes, prepare the horses and go to Chen's house."
Chen Mansion.
Chen Song was completely bewildered by Zhou Siheng's idea. "You said you wanted to be sent to Lanzhou?"
"Yes, teacher, please be flexible."
"Are you crazy? Lanzhou is the fiefdom of the King of Qin. If you go there, you're walking into a tiger's mouth, waiting to die." Chen Song shook his head and refused. "Go back. I won't agree to this."
"teacher……"
"It's no use calling me daddy." Chen Song puffed his beard and glared, "The emperor clearly doesn't want the King of Qin to return. What are you doing in that deserted place? Even if you don't consider your own future, you should at least consider the Zhou family. Are you really planning to give the position of Young Master of the Zhou family to someone else?"
Xie Yunqi did not lose his qualifications but bided his time and waited for the opportunity.
No, I absolutely cannot tell this to my mentor. If it is spread by someone with ulterior motives, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble for Xie Yunqi.
"Jingxuan heard that there was a drought in Lanzhou, the fields had no harvest, and the people were suffering terribly."
"That has nothing to do with you." Chen Song said, "The imperial envoy who will go to the disaster area has already been appointed. Just give up on this idea."
"Teacher." Zhou Siheng slumped to his knees. "Teacher, please help me. I really have an urgent matter and need to go to Lanzhou. I hope you can be flexible."
"What urgent matter warrants the risk of going to Lanzhou? Jingxuan, you are gifted and intelligent, and you have everything you need. But your soft heart will cost you your life. Do you think I can't see that you went to Lanzhou just for the sake of the King of Qin? Jingxuan, the merit of following the emperor is not easy to establish. Joining the team too early will only lead to your death faster."
Zhou Siheng said: "Jingxuan understands the teacher's painstaking efforts."
"You understand nothing!" Chen Song cursed, "Look at the Lin family. They were trying to curry favor by sending their daughter to the Prince of Qin's mansion to be his consort. But when the Prince of Qin got into trouble, they disappeared without a trace. Even relatives avoid suspicion, so why not you and me?"
