...After Fenglai stamped her seal on the document, Liang Shuyi took it from her expressionlessly. Unable to suppress her eagerness, Fenglai hurriedly asked, "Now, you should tell me everything you know, right, cousin? That person is really important to me. I must know where he is and how he's doing."
After handing the receipt to Tang Chen, Liang Shuyi sighed, stood up, and bowed to Feng Lai before saying, "I can't bear to be called cousin by the princess. Since the princess has done this, Shuyi will no longer hide the fact that the owner of this fan died three years ago."
Feng Lai heard this and immediately slammed the table and stood up: "What did you say!"
Facing Feng Lai's sudden rage, Liang Shuyi calmly explained, "I said he died of illness. He was a friend I met by chance when I was wandering around. Later, because he imitated Shennong and tasted hundreds of herbs, so..."
Feng Lai quickly covered his ears and said excitedly: "No, how is it possible? I don't believe it!"
Liang Shuyi pulled her hands away from her ears and continued, "I was there before he left. I saw him turn into dust with my own eyes. How could it be fake?"
Feng Lai roared, "Unless you show me evidence, I won't believe it even if you kill me!"
Speaking of evidence, it was truly a coincidence. The day Feng Lai showed up at the palace, Liang Shuyi knew that no matter how much she tried to hide, as long as she was still in the palace, they would definitely meet. To avoid being asked about this matter when they met, Liang Shuyi had already prepared a backup plan.
Besides, Princess Fenglai was so obsessed with her in men's clothing, presumably because of a girlish infatuation. After not seeing each other for so many years, the man in her mind must have been absolutely perfect, and his appearance would naturally be different from Liang Shuyi's current appearance. "I don't have any evidence. He hated being bound the most in his life, so after his death, he didn't even leave a grave. He only left some ornaments and a suicide note for his friends."
Feng Lai was so overwhelmed that he almost collapsed to the ground. He covered his chest and said with tears in his eyes: "...I want to see."
Feng Lai was afraid that Liang Shuyi would fool her, so she asked her to tell her where the relics were. After repeatedly assuring her that her people would not arbitrarily move other items and would not disturb Chen Xin and Xiao Shuang'er's rest, she let Xi Xin go to get them.
...Opening the dusty box, he found a stack of letters and a fan pendant inside. This pendant was the one Fenglai had given him back then. After opening the letters, which looked quite old, Fenglai finally believed it: "This is really his handwriting... He's dead? Then why did I go to all the trouble to come to Daliang, and marry into Qingliang Valley?!"
Tang Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart at Liang Shuyi's thorough preparations. He quickly squatted down, gently patted Feng Lai's back and said comfortingly, "Princess, please accept my condolences. Things in the world are unpredictable, and no one can predict what will happen."
When Princess Fenglai, weeping profusely, was brought back by Yingchun and the others, Tang Chen had the Qilin Guards go out and fetch a doctor, fearing the young woman might do something foolish. Furthermore, seeing how she was weeping so hard, she was probably losing her strength.
Tang Chen asked with some reluctance: "You, you, are you going a little too far?"
Liang Shuyi seemed to have suddenly unloaded a heavy burden, and said with a relaxed tone, "If I don't do this, will she ever give up? Now I have this document in my hand. Although she is willful and capricious, she is also a trustworthy person. From now on, I don't have to worry about her suddenly running away before the matter is completed."
Tang Chen sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, what you said makes sense. I just feel that we took advantage of her, and I feel a little bit reluctant."
Liang Shuyi's situation was now somewhat understood. Tang Chen, however, had previously heard that she had been in the West Courtyard. He didn't know why he had suddenly heard the rumors and rushed over to mediate. If it weren't for her, who knows how long this matter would have taken to reach this conclusion. "I noticed you were coming from the direction of the Hot Spring Villa. Did you go to look for Hua Wuxin?"
Wang Ruo had only told Tang Chen that Hua Wuxin was Jiang Ling. Furthermore, as the previous head of the Jiang family, if the people of Bugui Peak knew that Jiang Ling was still alive, many things would be difficult to handle.
Therefore, Tang Chen and Hua Wuxin had no choice but to tell Liang Shuyi and the others everything about their relationship. "Well, there are some things I want to ask him, but he doesn't seem to know the answer very well."
Liang Shuyi said with a smile, "If he knew everything, he would be an immortal. Anyway, I have to go check my medicine. I almost forgot about it!"
After Liang Shuyi left, she was the only one left in Meiwu again: "Ah, why does it feel so quiet all of a sudden? Speaking of which, I haven't been to Meiwu for a long time. It seems to be the same as before, making people feel at ease."
Lian Qiao, I don’t know how you and they are doing now in another world.
Tang Chen stood under the plum tree that had already grown over the wall, planning to take advantage of the quiet time and not have to worry about too many things to think about life and look forward to the future. Just as he was brewing his emotions and preparing to recite a poem, he was disrupted by the sudden sound of footsteps.
"lady!"
Tang Chen turned around and saw that it was the nanny who helped take care of the children in her room. "Why are you here? What's wrong?"
The nanny whispered in Tang Chen's ear: "Princess Shuyang is here. She said she wants to see Madam for something."
Tang Chen was slightly taken aback. Shu Yang had been well hidden since she arrived in Qingliang Valley. Normally, they would never let her out unless necessary. Although she was the princess of Daliang, she was also responsible for the assassination of Emperor Gan Zhao. If someone discovered her in Qingliang Valley at this time, it would be difficult to deal with her. "Where is she now?"
The maid said, "I brought the princess from the back door to the secret house on the cliff. She is waiting there now."
When Tang Chen and the nanny returned, Shu Yang was playing with the baby who had just woken up in the bed. Tang Chen gestured to the nanny to take the child aside before saying, "Shu Yang, why are you here? I heard they said you had something to ask me?"
"I……"
Tang Chen saw Shu Yang's hesitation and guessed her intention: "Is it about Xinzhai's matter?"
Shu Yang lowered his head with a twinkle in his eyes and said, "Half and half."
Tang Chen gently took her hand and said softly, "I haven't found their previous residence yet. I will tell you when I find it. Let's go together and have a drink with them."
