The Jing Xin Yuan under the curtain of night was especially tranquil and beautiful.

The light moonlight fell on the garden of flowers, and the stars blinked like naughty children.

Not long after Sun Jinzi fainted and vomited blood, she woke up with a loud noise from outside Jing Xin Yuan. She knew something was wrong.

Mu Lan ran in frantically, her face as pale as snow.

"Miss, quickly think of a way to escape! First Lady has come with him. "

Sun Jinzi knew that the Zhong's coming here was definitely not a good thing, and in all likelihood, wanted to take advantage of the dark night to murder him.

But where could he go now? He might as well think about how to protect himself.

The Zhong's didn't give her any chance to think, and brought a few domestic servant s into the Jing Xin Yuan.

She looked at Sun Jinzi who was lying on the bed, laughed coldly at first, then said: You guys go look around to see if there's anyone else? This slut does not know how to be shameless, and this Jing Xin Yuan is also a place filled with hidden filth. "

Mu Lan stood in front of Sun Jinzi. As long as she was alive, no one could hurt her.

"Get out of my way! You are still protecting this little slut, do you really not want to live anymore? "

Sun Jinmeng rushed to the side of the bed in an attempt to pull Mu Lan away. Unexpectedly, although she looked petite, she was standing right in front of the bed like a boulder.

"You little slut, scram."

Sun Jinmeng pounced towards Mu Lan like a madwoman, the few loud slaps appearing exceptionally crisp in the silent night.

Mu Lan's beautiful face was beaten green and swollen, but she remained unmoved.

Every loud and clear slap was like a sharp knife piercing into Sun Jinzi's heart. She struggled desperately to get up from the bed, but her entire body did not have the slightest bit of strength, as though she had been slapped empty.

In his previous life, he had watched his mother die miserably before his eyes, but in this life, he wanted to see Mu Lan being humiliated by someone else like this.

Sun Jinzi was trembling from anger, but there were no tears in her eyes.

"You little slut who doesn't understand the meaning of your eyes, scram! Someone, go and drag that little slut away, I'll reward you all tonight."

The Zhong's's eyes revealed a cold light. Tonight, whoever blocks her from killing Sun Jinzi, will die.

Mu Lan was bright and beautiful. Even though her two cheeks had been beaten beyond recognition, they revealed half of her fair arms, and a few domestic servant s only had their eyes shining with green light seeing this.

"Who dares to touch a single hair on Mu Lan's head today, I, Sun Jinzi, will definitely let you live a life worse than death."

Sun Jinzi roared, and no longer had any strength left in her body.

When Mu Lan saw a few domestic servant s pouncing towards her like tigers, panthers and wolves, she knew that if she were caught by them tonight, she would definitely suffer a fate worse than death. It doesn't matter if I live or die, but what about Miss?

"No, as long as I am here, none of you are allowed to touch a single strand of hair on the young lady's head."

Mu Lan pounced towards Sun Jinmeng like a mad beast. The strength in her hands suddenly became immense, she grabbed Sun Jinmeng's collar, her right hand grabbing onto her neck while her left hand pulled out the hairpin on her head and pushed it towards Sun Jinmeng's neck.

"All of you, back off. If anyone of you dares to take another step forward, I'll take this little slut's life."

Mu Lan's face was covered in blood, her hair in a mess, as though she was a female ghost that just walked out of hell.

A few domestic servant s were so scared that they didn't dare to move. If something were to happen to Third Miss tonight, they would definitely accompany him in death.

Even someone like the Zhong's, who had experienced many storms and waves, would never have thought that Mu Lan would strike like this in the end. With her own daughter's life in the hands of another, how could she dare to act rashly?

"All of you, stand down. Step down."

Several domestic servant s all retreated behind the Zhong's, not daring to advance even a little bit further.

The air in Jing Xin Yuan was filled with the thick smell of blood, as if the entire Sun Mansion was immersed in a sea of blood.

Seeing that Mu Lan was risking her life to protect her, yet she was acting like a cripple with no effect whatsoever, Sun Jinzi was both furious and anxious. She felt a sweet taste at the back of his throat as fresh blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.

"Mu Lan, as long as you release Third Miss now, I guarantee that you will be able to walk out of Sun Mansion unscathed tonight. No one will dare to make things difficult for you."

Zhong's had been through many trials and hardships, so he quickly recovered his calm and collected demeanor.

Mu Lan didn't pay attention to Zhong's, but asked in a low voice, "Second Miss, don't be afraid. Even if Mu Lan were to stake her life today, she won't let anyone touch a single hair on your head."

"Mu Lan, don't you think about yourself? Don't you think about your family in the Ming Province?" Zhong's's voice turned cold, and her tone turned even higher, "If you were to injure Third Miss today, I'm afraid that their future days wouldn't be good either. I remember that you have an old mother who is gravely ill in your family."

The Zhong's knew better than anyone else the principle of beating a snake until it died. Even if Mu Lan did not care about her own safety, how could she not care about the Gu family?

Sun Jinzi's whole body trembled in hatred at Xiang Fei's arrival. At that moment, she wished that she could turn into a sharp sword and kill the old granny from Zhong's.

"Hahaha!"

Mu Lan first laughed coldly three times, a cold smile flashing past her eyes.

"Even if my family and I are going to hell after death, there is still the Third Miss backing us up. What is there for me to be afraid of?"

Zhong's's face sank again as she said in a stern voice: "You and that little slut won't be able to escape from Sun Mansion tonight. If you know what's good for you, then release the Third Miss, otherwise …"

Sun Jinzi struggled out of bed and leaned lightly against the wall. She saw that Mu Lan's hands were trembling.

"Mu Lan, get them to bring the old master over."

During this time, Sun Jinzi had already thought of dozens of ways to save herself. Qian Jun was far from being able to quench his thirst, and the only person in Sun Mansion who did not want to put him to death was Sun Fuping, so long as he came, then the Zhong's would not dare to act rashly.

"First Lady, please have this dog slave bring the old master over. Otherwise …"

The hairpin in her hand had already left a shallow cut on Sun Jinmeng's neck that was as smooth as white jade.

Sun Jinmeng had never experienced something like this before, she was so scared that she screamed again, and her entire body almost fell to the ground.

"Don't move, don't move!"

How could the Zhong's not know what Sun Jinzi was thinking? But with her daughter's life in someone else's hands, she had no other choice.

She could only have domestic servant head over to Orchid Pavilion to invite Sun Fuping here, and then find an opportunity to make a move.

Seeing that domestic servant had gone out, Sun Jinzi heaved a sigh of relief.

Today, the Emperor summoned Sun Fuping to the palace to discuss with him about how to sweep through the Northern Desert with the soldiers. He also called for Sun Fuping to bring out the plan to transport the food and prepare the horses as soon as possible.

When Sun Fuping returned to Orchid Pavilion, the gentle and considerate Lance's had already prepared some dishes and wine. After the two finished eating dinner, they went back to their rooms to rest.

Lance's leaned on Sun Fuping's shoulder and said with a hidden bitterness: "Master, why did you come back so late tonight? I thought you didn't love me anymore and went over to First Lady. "

Although she was close to forty years old, Lance's was as beautiful as a sixteen year old girl when she acted coquettishly.

Sun Fuping held her small face and said: "Why would I go to that yellow faced old lady's place? "With a demon like you, I still won't be able to hurt you."

His hands could not help but begin to feel around on Lance's's smooth and soft body, both of his hands were held by Lance's.

"Old master, the night is still long. Tonight, this concubine is yours."

The Lance's held his neck and said slowly, "Did the Emperor seek you out to enter the palace today about Zi Er's matter?"

Sun Fuping's face changed, and said: What's going on in the court, how can a woman like you ask about it?

Lance's was well aware of Sun Fuping's temperament, and knew that he was a little reckless in bringing up this matter.

"Old master, it's fine if you want to say it!" Why be angry with me? Isn't she still worried about Zi Er? "

She pretended to be angry and turned around to ignore Sun Fuping. It was strange for this old pervert to be able to hold back from touching his.

Madam, it's all my fault, I should not have blamed you for nothing. The Emperor did not mention anything about Zi Er.

Sun Fuping reached out and gently hugged Lance's from the back as if he was hugging a rare treasure.

"Expedition to the Northern Desert? The one leading the troops this time must be Jianzhou General! He's the big red man in the emperor's eyes right now. "

Sun Fuping said coldly: "It is indeed Jianzhou General Qian Jun."

Qian Jun was Sun Jinzi's blood uncle, so it was inevitable that something like this ripping Sun Jinzi off would not happen in the future. At that time, Qian Jun would definitely take revenge, so he might as well take the opportunity to have Sun Fuping secretly do something to get rid of the trouble.

Sun Fuping lightly coughed, and said coldly: "That will depend on his abilities."

When the Lance's saw that he had successfully provoked Sun Fuping's desire for battle, he blew the candle and walked towards him.

"Master, master, something bad happened! The Third Miss was held hostage by Mu Lan and she told you to head over to the Jing Xin Yuan."

The domestic servant s sent by the Zhong's were all her trusted aides, so they couldn't care less about offending Sun Fuping in the middle of the night, so they just stood outside the door and shouted loudly.

"What a disappointment!"

Although Sun Fuping was dissatisfied, he had no choice but to get up and dress before heading to Jing Xin Yuan.

Zhong's still did not see Sun Fuping even after a long time, so he sent another domestic servant over.

"You really are a stubborn old pervert. Your daughter is in a life and death situation, and you're actually fooling around with that fox spirit from the Lance's."

Sun Jinmeng was so scared that she fell to the ground limply. She also sat on the ground with her hairpin held tightly around her neck.

"Zi Er, I came here tonight simply because of your father's orders. If you ask Mu Lan to let go of Meng Er, we can talk nicely."

Sun Jinzi rested for a while. At this time, she finally had some strength on her body, and her face was tinged with a bit of blood.

"Is that so? "Then I'll have to wait for my father to come and ask."

Mu Lan turned to look at Sun Jinzi, and spoke with an exhausted voice: "Miss, are you alright now?!"

"I'm much better now, so don't worry about me."

Sun Jinzi saw two figures hurriedly walking in from outside.

The person who came in first was the domestic servant who was sent by the Zhong's to invite Sun Fuping, and the person behind him was Sun Fuping.

Sun Fuping entered the room and saw Mu Lan point the hairpin at Sun Jinmeng's neck. She couldn't help but be shocked and shouted angrily, "Mu Lan, what are you doing? You actually dare to take Third Miss as your hostage, release her now. "

Zhong's also followed and shouted, "The old master has already spoken, why are you still not letting him go!"

Sun Fuping was, after all, the Sun Mansion's Patriarch. Mu Lan turned around and glanced at Sun Jinzi, wanting to know what she meant.

Sun Jinzi shook her head lightly. She still couldn't let Sun Jinmeng go.

"Father, you've come. Your daughter is not feeling well, so I can't pay my respects to you."

Sun Fuping glanced at Sun Jinzi who was leaning against the wall, her gaze as cold as snow.

Sun Jinzi felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, but her emotions calmed down after a while.

Had he not seen this kind of vision in the Sun Mansion?

She unconsciously felt a wave of sadness in her heart. However, no matter how many gazes she looked at him with that made her heart turn cold, he still wanted her to live.
