"Regret?"
Qu Qingning raised his eyebrows and stepped on the fat servant's chest. He laughed and said, "I have never regretted in my life. Can you show me regret?"
The fat servant was stepped on and vomited blood. He was terrified and wanted to escape with his hands.
"Madman, you are a madman!! You dare to treat me like this. My He Family is not easy to deal with. You … you wait … "
Bang!!
"Noisy!"
Qu Qingning impatiently slapped the fat servant unconscious. The rest of the servants saw that he was so miserable. They crawled and gathered together. They didn't dare to say a word, which was similar to those frightened diners just now.
"Finally, it's quiet."
Qu Qingning glanced at the diners who had almost run away. He turned back and asked, "Brother Luo, where are we going next?"
Luo Yichen's eyes narrowed slightly. He thought for a moment and said, "Brother Qu, please deal with these people. Before we start, I want to go to my home first."
Qu Qingning smiled and said, "Hey! It's easy! You go home first. After we've dealt with these people, we can ask around and we'll be able to find you. "
Luo Yichen went out and took off a black cloth hat from Yun Yi's horse. Then he disappeared in the street.
Yun Yi glanced at the trembling innkeeper and put three golden leaves on the counter. He said lightly, "It's none of your business."
When the innkeeper saw the golden leaves, his gray eyes immediately brightened. These three golden leaves were enough to buy ten inns as big as his. With the money, he could completely change a place to make a comeback.
Thinking of this, the innkeeper suppressed the fear in his heart and thanked Yun Yi repeatedly.
After dealing with the affairs of the inn, Yun Yi walked to the backyard and saw a group of servants of the He Family who had been tightly tied up. He nodded and said, "It's OK to leave them here for at least half a day. Let's go to the Luo Family."
When Qu Qingning heard this, he immediately shook his head and said, "Hey, don't worry. Let's have a drink here and leave in two hours. Luo Yichen obviously wants to go back alone. Isn't it inappropriate for us to go now?"
Yun Yi was slightly stunned. Thinking of the situation when Luo Yichen left, he couldn't help sighing with emotion, "I didn't expect you to be so careful."
Qu Qingning was unhappy when he was drinking. He said, "What are you talking about? I have always been so excellent, okay? It's just that Su Li and Fang Yuan have no chance to perform. "
Yun Yi couldn't help laughing. He also sat down, poured a glass of wine, and slowly tasted it. He didn't argue with Qu Qingning anymore.

In the eastern part of Fallen Moon City, there was a house that looked a bit old. At this moment, the door to the courtyard was open, and lanterns and streamers could be seen everywhere. Servants and maids in new clothes came and went, as well as guests dressed in luxurious clothing.
An old butler stood at the door, constantly nodding and bowing as he received guests. Although there was a smile on his face, it was even uglier than crying, and there was even helplessness between his brows. His eyes were grey and muddy, as if he had lost the spirit, energy, and spirit that he relied on to comfort himself.
The guests seemed to be too lazy to bother with him and walked straight into the courtyard.
"Alas, the Miss's marriage will completely ruin this family."
The old butler sighed deeply. Suddenly, he felt that the light in front of him dimmed. He looked up and saw a tall man in black in front of him. The man wore a black bamboo hat with a long sword on his waist, and his face couldn't be seen clearly.
"This … childe?"
Luo Yichen stared at the wrinkled old man in front of him and didn't answer.
In the past seven years, the hale and hearty Butler Wu in his memory had become so old.
Butler Wu stared at him. Although the figure of the man in front of him was very strange, somehow he felt a sense of familiarity from the bottom of his heart.
The First Master?
How could it be possible? The First Master had passed away for seven years. The Miss was unwilling to set up a memorial tablet. She had asked people to look for him secretly these years, but they couldn't even find his shadow.
If the First Master was still alive, how could there be no news from him?
Thinking of this, Butler Wu couldn't help but smile bitterly and asked, "Childe, are you also here for the banquet?"
"I …"
Luo Yichen was excited, but the words were suddenly stuck in his throat. He couldn't say it.
There was a rare trace of fear in his heart.
In the hearts of the family, he might have died long ago. After all, all the troubles in those years were caused by him killing He Jinling in a rage.
Now he suddenly appeared. What would the reaction of his parents and sister be?
Would they be happy or resentful?
Seeing that Luo Yichen didn't respond for a long time, Butler Wu only thought that he was a cold guest. He immediately made a gesture and reminded him, "Childe, please take a seat. The banquet is about to begin. However, in order to avoid making others unhappy, you'd better take off the bamboo hat. "
Hearing this, Luo Yichen pulled the bamboo hat lower and said in a hoarse voice, "I won't go in. Which family does Luo Yingying marry?"
At this moment, he had made up his mind!
If his sister married a good family and the family situation was also good, there was no need for him to break the rare peace.
After getting rid of the He Family, he could secretly support them and end the cause and effect.
Butler Wu was stunned when he heard Luo Yichen's question. Immediately his expression changed. He murmured in surprise and doubt, "Childe Fan hasn't given up yet? No, no, Childe Fan has long been under house arrest … "
Although there were many people at this moment, and Butler Wu's murmur was as low as a mosquito, Luo Yichen still heard it clearly.
"Childe Fan … Fan Tianxing?"
Butler Wu was shocked when he heard it. His eyes lit up, "Childe Fan really sent you!"
Then he cautiously glanced at the courtyard. Seeing that the guests hadn't noticed them, he immediately pulled Luo Yichen to the courtyard next door.
"Come with me!"
Luo Yichen frowned and let Butler Wu pull him to a place with fewer people. Then he asked, "What the hell is going on? Why is Tianxing under house arrest when Yingying is married? "
Butler Wu was nervous and didn't notice that Luo Yichen called him intimately. He hurriedly said, "Since you are the helper invited by Childe Fan, don't think so much. Take Miss away quickly!"
"Go?"
Luo Yichen stopped and said coldly, "Why? Where are you going? "
When Luo Yichen stopped, Butler Wu, who was in a hurry, stopped abruptly. Hearing Luo Yichen's tone, Butler Wu blamed the person invited by Childe Fan for being unreliable. But he could only explain,
"After Old Master fell ill, Miss was the only backbone of the family. How could she get married?"
Father fell ill!
Seven years had passed, and she was already twenty-four years old. For the sake of the family, she had never married!
When Luo Yichen heard the news, he was slightly shocked and his blood was boiling.
"This time, Miss was forced to get married by the He Family! Childe Fan was so angry that he wanted to save Miss. But before he could do it, he was under house arrest by the family. So, Miss had no choice but to agree to He Family's request on the surface. In fact, she had been waiting for Childe Fan to send someone to save her. "
Luo Yichen took a deep breath, "He Family? He Jinling is dead. Is there any man in He Family? "
Seeing that Luo Yichen still had questions, Butler Wu was anxious and complained, "Oh, you are paid to do things. Just go with me! When did I say that Miss was going to marry He Family? He Family specially found a ruffian to humiliate Miss. If you don't go now, it will be too late after the banquet ends! "
It turned out to be like this!
Luo Yichen's expression changed immediately. He reached out to lift Butler Wu and rushed to the backyard as fast as lightning.
Butler Wu rode on the cloud and dizzily saw the surrounding scene shaking. Then he arrived in front of Miss's yard. He couldn't help but be shocked and then overjoyed. Childe Fan could invite such a master. Miss would be saved!
At this moment, he was ecstatic, and he didn't feel strange that a stranger could be so familiar with the layout of Luo Family.
"Yingying still lives here."
Luo Yichen stood still and put down Butler Wu. A trace of reminiscence flashed through his eyes. Then he pushed the door and walked into the yard.
At this moment, he didn't hesitate anymore.
Butler Wu happily walked to the door and laughed, "Miss, Miss, Childe Fan's people are here."
"Butler Wu, come in with that gentleman."
As soon as he finished speaking, a female voice came from the room, which made Luo Yichen slightly absent-minded. The voice was still the same, but the tone of speaking was completely different from seven years ago. It was less naive and weak, but more strong and sophisticated.
How did a seventeen-year-old girl support this family under the He Family's strife for seven years?
He couldn't imagine.
Creak —
The wooden door made a light sound. The person in the room came into view, which made Butler Wu and Luo Yichen stunned at the same time.
The girl sitting at the dressing table was wearing a phoenix crown and a red cape. Her makeup was exquisite, and she was extremely beautiful. But different from those delicate ladies, her lips were tightly closed, and her eyes were firm, as if she wouldn't change her expression even if a mountain collapsed in front of her.
At this moment, Luo Yichen actually saw the shadow of Su Li in her.
"Miss, why are you still wearing this? Didn't I prepare maid clothes for you?"
Butler Wu was so anxious that his forehead was sweating. He rushed into the room to find maid clothes for Luo Yingying to change into. Luo Yingying shook her head and stopped him. Her eyes were firm and calm, "I won't leave. If I leave, He Family will be angry. What about father? What about you? "
Then she looked at Luo Yichen who stood still at the door and apologized, "I'm so sorry to let you come here in vain. Please thank Childe Fan for me. Thanks to his protection these years, our Luo Family can continue to survive. But this time … Yingying can't hurt him no matter what."
Although the Fan family was quite powerful, they were no match for the mighty He family, who was a relative of the Emperor. The head of the Fan family, who had always doted on his son, had seen this, which was why he had ruthlessly imprisoned Fan Tianxing.
Luo Yichen was silent, and his body didn't move at all. Seeing that, Luo Yingying was confused, and said again,
"Your Excellency?"
This time, there was finally a response.
Luo Yichen moved. He slowly walked to the front of his mother's memorial tablet, which he saw at a glance when he entered the room. Under Luo Yingying's puzzled gaze, he silently burned an incense stick, and finally said,
"When did mother … die?"
