Hong Tan followed along, "Princess, why did you come back here?"

"Just pack up. I'll sleep here tonight." she said.

"En," Hong Tan replied, but he still said, "Esteemed wangfei, it's been a long time since someone has lived here, why not let this servant clean up a room in Celestial Pavilion, and then we can go live with the young lady."

"No, I still like it here." Her heart ached. Xuanyuan Zhi disappeared without a trace, and when he returned, he did not even give her an explanation. Who was she to him?

Hong Tan had no choice but to raise the brazier, heat up the entire room, and then make the bed and go out.

Chu Qingyao sat on the bed, completely awake. She had been thinking about Yan Er's identity, and how she looked like a girl. But why was she so close to Xuanyuan Zhi? When did he know her?

Why did she know nothing about it?

If you have something on your mind, you will feel that the night is long. When the sun rose, Chu Qingyao was still awake. She had been waiting for Xuanyuan Zhi to come over and give her an explanation. But he actually didn't come. After she finished washing up with an unsightly expression, she walked towards the Celestial Pavilion.

When she reached the courtyard and felt the silence, she had a bad premonition.

He stretched out his hand to push the door open, but felt that he lacked the courage to do so. 's voice sounded from inside, "Yan Er, you're awake? How was your sleep? "

"Senior Brother, with you accompanying me, I can sleep very well." Yan Er's voice was sweet. Chu Qingyao's brain buzzed, as if something had exploded.

Her face was drained of color, but she tried to remain calm. Regardless of the situation inside, she wanted to take a look inside, because she did not believe that Xuanyuan Zhi would do such a thing.

Opening the door, she entered the room in a flurried manner.

The sound of footsteps alerted the woman on the bed. She screamed and immediately jumped into Xuanyuan Zhi's embrace, "Senior brother, this woman is so ugly. Why is she here again?"

"Zhi, who is she?" Chu Qingyao endured the impulse to go forward and throw Yan Er out.

"A Chu, he is master's daughter." Xuanyuan Zhi looked over apologetically. "Yan Er is not afraid. Senior Brother will immediately let her out, and will never let her enter again."

Even though she knew he was trying to coax her, Chu Qingyao was still very angry.

She stood there without moving, wanting to see how Xuanyuan Zhi would force her to leave. After the woman in his embrace quieted down, Xuanyuan Zhileng said, "A Chu, why are you still here? Yan Er is afraid of strangers. "

"I am a stranger, but is your highness not one? Did you two know each other from the start? " Chu Qingyao sneered, he was sure that they had never met before.

With Xuanyuan Zhi's protection of the woman, if he had known of her existence, he definitely wouldn't have gone to pick her up.

"A Chu, Yan Er cannot be provoked." Xuanyuan Zhi lowered his head again, "Yan Er, Senior Brother will immediately chase her away, don't be afraid!"

Then, the woman raised her head to look over and coincidentally saw Chu Qingyao's angry eyes. Following that was another scream.

"Qi Sha, bring the wangfei out." Seeing that Chu Qingyao did not move, Xuanyuan Zhi was slightly angry.

Qi Sha entered, not knowing what to say. Chu Qingyao did not want him to make things difficult for her, so she left with a mocking expression on her face.

Qi Sha followed her out, and said carefully, "Princess, the Prince has received news that his master is no longer in this world, and only wants this girl to be taken care of by him."

"Then he'll take good care of her." Chu Qingyao was furious in her heart. She was angry that Xuanyuan Zhi did not explain himself to her, and only took care of the girl called Yan Er wholeheartedly.

She walked in the direction of the Blue Luan Courtyard, and said, "Since the prince has returned, send the order down, don't let everyone look for him." As for the Toxic Sect, she had to inform them as well.

Upon arriving at Celestial Pavilion, Wandering welcomed them with a face full of joy, saying, "Eldest Miss, I just received a letter from the Sect Leader. He's coming to the capital now."

"When will you be here?"

"We'll leave tomorrow." Wandering was very excited. She hadn't seen the Sect Leader for quite some time.

"I had originally wanted to return to the Toxic Sect. Since he wants to come, then I will wait for him." Chu Qingyao smiled, "Wandering, Hua Niang is already three months pregnant."

"Eldest Miss, Hua Niang is really happy? I always thought she would... There's no way to let go of the Sect Leader! " After saying that, she stuck out her tongue, "Miss, I don't have any other intentions."

"The Sect Leader is young and capable, and he is also handsome. It is normal for ladies to like him, so there is no need to hide from him." Chu Qingyao said, "If you have someone you like in the future, you can also find a good successor like Hua Niang, leave the Spring Wind Pavilion, and lead a normal life."

Wandering was overjoyed as he hurriedly said, "Thank you, Young Miss." She didn't actually have anyone she liked.

Man Tianyao did not come to the capital alone, he came with Chu Qingxiao. Because she did not notify him beforehand, Chu Qingyao did not know.

When the two of them suddenly appeared in Prince Zhi's Mansion, she was a little dumbfounded. Why is father here? Xuanyuan Zhi had still been taking care of that Yan Er, so she definitely could not let him see anything.

She smiled and invited him into the guest room. Since her father had personally come, it would naturally not be good to bring him to Blue Luan Courtyard.

"Yao'er, is roasting king not in your mansion?" Chu Qingxiao frowned. He rushed to the door first, but roasting king did not come out to greet him.

"He has something to attend to, he's not in his residence." Chu Qingyao said.

"Entered the palace?" Man Tianyao asked, "But why did I feel Qi Sha's aura in the manor?"

"He probably didn't bring Qi Sha." Chu Qingyao glared at him, and just happened to have the tea served by the servants. She anxiously let Chu Qingxiao drink some tea.

"Dad, why did you suddenly go down the mountain? You haven't recovered yet." She complained.

"In any case, I've already lost all of my strength, so there's no use in recuperating." Chu Qingxiao said, "Furthermore, since I have been revived, I should have come to see the old lady on behalf of your mother, to thank her for raising you."

Since she was already here, what else could Chu Qingyao say. He could only say, "Father has already seen it. Let's hurry back. Although we don't have much time, we still have to take good care of our bodies."

"Yes." Chu Qingxiao replied.

"roasting king only has one Chief Consort?" On the way here, he really didn't see any random people.

"Father, if he had any other women, his daughter would have long since left. You don't have to worry about me, I'm fine. "

Man Tianyao looked at her, but didn't say anything. He had already received the news that Xuanyuan Zhi had gone missing for more than a month. It was said that no one knew where he had gone to. Since he had returned, why didn't his father reveal himself?

Girl, I'm not making it clear, it's not because I'm giving Xuanyuan Zhi face, but because I'm afraid of my father's anger.

Chu Qingxiao drank a cup of tea and proposed to go to the Han Family: "Yao'er, I will go see your ancestor first. I feel guilty towards her."

If not for the incident with him back then, why would Xi Xue marry someone out of grievance in order to protect the child in her womb? He owed the madame all this.

"Father, I'll accompany you." She supported Chu Qingxiao as she stood up and said to Qi Jue, "When the Duke comes back, help me inform him that I'm going back to the Han Family."

"Yes, Princess." Qi Jue panicked, afraid that the prince would appear at this very moment.

Chu Qingxiao walked very slowly, as if he was frowning all the time. Man Tianyao then looked at Celestial Pavilion, and a cold smile hung on his lips.

"Little girl, I remember that the Prince Zhi's Mansion's scenery is pretty good. Why don't you bring father over for a look?" he suddenly said.

Chu Qingyao glared at him again, "You have a lot to do! "Father's health is not too good. I should go see the old mistress first. I should check on her after I get back and get some sleep."

Chu Qingxiao became suspicious and stopped in his tracks, "Yao'er, why don't you take me for a walk and let me have a good look?" Looking at the scenery was just an excuse, he always felt that something had happened.

Chu Qingyao's heart tightened, "Let's go to the Han Family first, I'll accompany Father when we get back." Didn't father always want to see his grandfather? "Why don't you want to go again? It can't be that you're afraid of her blaming you and you don't dare to show your face, right?"

"Girl, then we'll go to the Han family first." Chu Qingxiao continued to walk away.

Han Family.

"Who do you think you are?" The old lady's eyes turned red, she pointed at Chu Qingxiao who was kneeling on the ground and begging for forgiveness.

"Your son-in-law Chu Qingxiao greets mother."

Tears rolled down the old mistress' face. She could no longer control her emotions. She had met Chu Qingxiao once before, and upon hearing him admit it himself, she couldn't help but notice that he was still as handsome as before.

In those years with the ice coffin, Chu Qingxiao seemed to have been forgotten by the passing of time, he was not even a little bit old. Actually, only he himself knew that what he was old for was his heart.

The madame was saddened as she cried.

This man was still alive, but her daughter …

"Grandmother, father was poisoned back then and has always been in a state of suspended animation within the ice coffin. It was Yao'er who saved him." Chu Qingyao knelt beside Chu Qingxiao and cried softly.

Mrs. Han, who was standing at the side, also kept crying.

"Mother, it is all my fault. If you want to beat me or curse me, I will take it all. Please take care of yourself." Chu Qingxiao never thought that the Countess' reaction would be so huge, afraid that her body wouldn't be able to take it.

The old lady cried for a while before she finally stopped and looked at Chu Qingxiao. However, she quickly understood that this was the man that Xi Xue had loved with his life. Even when she was underground, she didn't want to see herself angry at him.

After calming herself down, she said, "Little girl Yao, quickly help your father up. The ground is cold."

Chu Qingxiao kowtowed to the old lady three times, stood up, bowed to Mrs. Han again, and sat down on the side. The madame wiped the corners of her eyes. "I'm very happy to see you alive. Yao`er is also the child of her father."

Chu Qingxiao's heart was filled with grief, as if he could see just how much grievance Yao'er had suffered back then in the Prime Minister's Estate.

"Don't worry mother, I'll try my best to protect Yao'er in the future." he said.

"That's good, Yao'er is covered in your blood, she is destined to be tied to the Toxic Sect. "From now on, I'll leave her to you." The old mistress paused for a moment. "Seeing that the two of you recognize each other, it's time for Xi Xue to rest in peace."

"Mother, I want to go to Xi Xue's grave and burn an incense before it burns." Talk to her.

Chu Qingyao's eyes widened, this was something she also wanted to know. She had once asked the madame, but she had not said so.

The sadness in the madame's eyes deepened, as if she did not want to be touched by any memories.
