His gaze swept in all directions before finally landing on a green figure —

It was a young nun. She turned around and walked out of the crowd. As she watched the back of the crowd gradually being squeezed out, there was a trace of loneliness and sadness, making him feel a sense of familiarity with her.

This is...

"Yi'er, quick, look! The Prime Minister's Estate is right in front of us!" Just as he was about to take a closer look, Lian Fu shouted. His mind wandered, and when he looked again at the back, that person had already disappeared.

Among the welcoming crowd, there were also people discussing.

"It really is a changing of the situation. The river flows east and west for thirty years. Back then, the Duke of Xiao and his son came back from Liao Prefecture. How awe-inspiring was that? The Emperor even led several princes to personally greet them at the city gates."

The other person heard this and immediately said, "You really don't want to live anymore. You're still talking about the Duke of Xiao, but the title of Duke of Xiao has already been crippled by the emperor. You still call yourself that when the Shangguan family hears you, they are going to arrest you."

When Feng Lingyue heard these words, her heart suddenly trembled. She stopped in her tracks. What? The title of Duke of Xiao had been crippled? What was going on?

Today, when she heard that the Department of War's right assistant, Yan Fu, had won a great victory over Qi Dan, she had quietly descended the mountain to see if she could see the Lian Conjure. She still did not know anything about what had happened in the capital.

How could the Xiao family?

"Yes, yes, yes, I'm blabbering too much!" The person who said the wrong thing immediately covered his mouth.

"However, it really makes one sigh. At that time, the person riding in high spirits was still the young duke, Xiao He. The young duke at that time was quite proud of himself."

But now, the entire Xiao family was imprisoned. I heard that the Emperor is going to exterminate the entire Xiao family soon! "What a pity!" Some people said with regret.

Complete decapitation?

Xiao He, Xiao He is going to be beheaded as well?

Feng Lingyue's eyes revealed a hint of fear, and she suddenly felt a panic in her heart. Her hand tightly gripped the meditation bead in her hand.

She turned around and looked at Lian Fu through the crowd. He was in a crowd, laughing so happily.

She turned her head and squeezed through the crowd. She walked along the street, avoiding the bustling crowd, and hurried in the direction of the Xiao family.

Arriving at the Xiao Residence's entrance, he saw the thick and heavy door was pasted with an eye-catching seal. The two bronze lions that used to be majestic and awe-inspiring at the entrance were now covered with fallen leaves.

Something had really happened to the Xiao family. What .. What was going on?

Didn't the Emperor always hold Xiao He in high regard? Why didn't he let Xiao He off?

At this time, someone hastily walked past her. She quickly pulled one of them and asked, "Uncle, why is the Xiao family sealed away? What happened?"

Aiyo, my little master, how dare you stand in front of the Xiao family's entrance. This old thief from the Xiao country had joined up with his father-in-law, King Anping, to fight. Now, King Anping is using three hundred thousand troops to directly attack the Imperial City and the Xiao family is going to be beheaded.

"But Xiao He didn't participate in this, right? Why is he also .." Feng Lingyue believed that with Xiao He's character, he wouldn't do anything like colluding with the enemy and betraying the country. He definitely wouldn't know about this.

"Little master, you're too naive. As the saying goes, you can't be separated from your father and son. Xiao Zhenhai and Xiao He are father and son. How could your son not know about your father's matter? This Xiao He is definitely not innocent."

Feng Lingyue stood rooted to the spot —

No, she believed in Xiao He's character.

"Hey, little master, who are you in the Xiao family? Why did you come here on purpose?" The old man looked at Feng Lingyue strangely.

Feng Lingyue came back to her senses and hurriedly said, "He's not some random person. I just happened to pass by by by chance. I'm leaving, it's good that he came." After she explained, she lowered her head and hurriedly walked away.

The uncle looked at her back as she hurried away and said, "It really is a strange little nun. She clearly seems to be very familiar with the Xiao family."

At the entrance of the Prime Minister's Estate.

Lian Yanqing stood in front of the gate and looked forward. His eyes contained some excitement, some pride, and some lingering fear. He had already heard about the achievements of Lian Fu in the mountain customs.

The nearby mother couldn't help but wipe her tears away. "My good grandson is finally back."

"Madame, Young Master Gu has made a great contribution and earned honor for the Lian Family. You can't cry, you have to laugh." Song mama supported her mother with a smile.

Lian Lian's mother wiped her eyes with the handkerchief and nodded. "You're right. I can't cry. I want to laugh. Otherwise, when that obedient grandson saw me, he would have thought that something was wrong with me."

The First Lady was also very gratified. Her face was flushed, and she quietly heaved a sigh of relief.

"My lord, you've given birth to a good son. You have done a great service to the Lian family."

"Mother, this is all thanks to you. Ji'er and Grandmother are the closest." The first wife felt her heart tremble, and she concealed the uneasiness on her face as she said this.

"Aiya, according to what I said, our Lian Family is so good, that's why we can build a company at such a young age." Third branch Mrs Liu waved her handkerchief and said loudly.

Second Branch Madam Hu pursed her lips tightly, her hand holding the handkerchief. She wasn't as heartless as Madam Liu, but in her heart, she wasn't as happy ..

The second branch family didn't have any sons, but seeing that the eldest branch had two sons, the eldest son was becoming more and more promising. If this continued, the second branch would never be able to hold their heads up again!

Lian Ruyue stood behind the first wife. Hearing the praises and praises of the combos of the people, the corner of her mouth revealed a pleased smile.

Feng Yunzheng looked at the people and horses that faintly appeared in his line of sight —

Was the Lian Fu really going to be Prime Minister Lian's son for the rest of his life? He looked at Lian Ru Yue and discovered that her expression was somewhat complex. In that case, Yue'er was thinking the same question as him.

When he saw his family members waiting to receive him at the entrance of the Residence of Prime Minister, his heart stirred. He immediately jumped down from the horse with his long legs and walked in front of Lian Yanqing with quick steps. He kneeled down heavily on the ground and said:

"Grandmother, father, mother, unfilial son is back!"

"Good, good, good. Good boy, it's good that you're back. Hurry and get up." Lian Yanqing's face revealed a happy expression. He personally stepped forward and used both hands to hold onto Lian Fu's shoulder, allowing him to stand up.

"My good grandson, you're finally back. Hurry up and get up so Grandmother can have a good look."

"Yes, Grandmother!" Lian Meng smiled and raised his head.

When his face appeared in front of everyone, they saw the scar that extended from the corner of his eyes all the way to the corner of his mouth.

"Yi'er, your face, this .."

Lian Lu saw the scar on Lian Fu's face and was immediately stunned.

"What, what is going on? "Yi'er, what happened to your face?" The First Lady jumped in fright and asked with a pained heart.

Ignoring the inconvenience of her legs, Lian Meng's mother walked in front of Lian Fu. Lifting her head, she stretched out both of her hands to caress Lian Tou's face and asked with a pained heart:

"My good grandson, your face, wh-who did this to you? It must have hurt. "

"Grandmother, I made it myself. It's all in the past now, so a nod doesn't hurt." Lian Meng gripped Lian Li's mother's wrist. Compared to everyone's surprise and regret, Lian Fu still didn't mind.

At this moment, even Yan Fu arrived. He jumped down from the horse and knelt on both knees. "Mother, brother, I was the one who didn't protect you. It was Yan Fu's fault."

"Fourth uncle, don't be in such a hurry to take responsibility. I broke it myself, so I don't blame you." Lian Fang hurriedly helped Lian Yanfu up.

"Mother, Fourth Brother, don't speak at the door. Let's go inside quickly." Even Yan Qing was confused by the expression on Lian Fang's face as he said this.
