With the cannon fodder script in hand, it is easy for the king to change his fate

"Qin Zhen, I am the heir of the Marquis of Weiwu. If anything happens to me, your whole family will be in deep trouble."

At this moment, Shen Si'an was a little scared. He had no idea that Qin Zhen was so skilled.

"Nothing much," Azhen said with a smile. "Just leaving here. Does the young master have any objections?"

Shen Si'an quickly shook her head: "No, you can leave as you wish."

If he wasn't confident in his abilities, he shouldn't provoke Qin Zhen again.

He coveted Qin Zhen's constitution, but he wasn't a fool. Besides, he had already been reborn, and his current body didn't have that tormenting illness; it was much better than in his previous life. As long as he didn't frequent brothels, he wouldn't catch a disease, and there was no need for him to lose his life because of Qin Zhen.

Of course, he didn't want to give up on Qin Zhen, but she was too powerful. Unless he was absolutely certain, he wouldn't consider it again.

Since returning, he hasn't had a moment of happiness, all because he's been thinking about Qin Zhen.

Now that he couldn't make a move on Qin Zhen, and since he wasn't exactly a man who didn't get close to women, his only option was to go to his concubines in the backyard.

Azhen opened the door and walked away.

She just left like that, and Shen Si'an still couldn't quite believe it.

After all, in her previous life, Ji Qing was stabbed by Qin Zhen simply because he wanted to take a concubine, and she herself committed suicide.

It's really surprising that he only got a beating for treating her like that.

As if knowing what Shen Si'an was thinking, A-Zhuang turned around and glanced at him: "What, is there something else?"

Shen Si'an is already bound to him; she doesn't need to do anything. Let the other party enjoy himself for a while.

It's good to reminisce about these wonderful days, because the days to come won't be this good.

I came along today just to beat up Shen Si'an.

Shen Si'an quickly shook his head, and seeing Azhen leave, he hurriedly closed the door.

Since Qin Zhen is so capable, the fact that he killed two of his subordinates clearly means that the other party knew something was amiss.

He still couldn't understand why someone as capable as the other party would cooperate in staging this charade.

He couldn't figure it out, so he left it at that. He didn't want to provoke Qin Zhen for the time being. After seeing that she had left, he hurried home and rushed into the backyard to do something else to calm his nerves. He quickly put Qin Zhen out of his mind.

As soon as Azhen came out of Shen Si'an's residence, she was stopped by a group of people, who were arranged by Pei Hui.

Pei Hui is currently imprisoned and unable to escape, but he doesn't want to give up on Qin Zhen. Since she's back, it's better for her to be under his watchful eye to avoid any unforeseen events.

Pei Hui's people assumed that Azhen had escaped from Shen Si'an's residence, since it wasn't the first time she had run away.

Azhen glanced at the people blocking her way, shook her head, and got into the carriage.

In Xiao Qing's view, she must have been disappointed and unable to escape.

“Miss Qin, His Highness felt deeply guilty for not being able to take good care of you before, as your whereabouts were unknown and your fate was uncertain. Therefore, he brought your family to the capital,” Xiao Qing said. “Would Miss Qin like to go and see them?”

"They are all doing well now."

"By the way, young master Qin Yunshu has already passed the imperial examination and become a Xiucai (a successful candidate in the lowest level of the imperial examinations)."

A-Zhan sat in the carriage listening. Qin Yunshu passed the imperial examination at a young age and became a Xiucai. A-Zhan was not surprised at all. He did have some talent in studying.

As for his uncle Qin Shanjie, he was only so-so in his studies. He had been studying at the academy all along, but he didn't want to go back to the village. Being a scholar was so comfortable.

“His Highness has been busy these days and hasn’t had time to see Miss Qin,” Xiao Qing added. Azhen’s voice came from inside the carriage: “Let’s go see the Qin family.”

"Okay." Xiao Qing agreed. His master still gave Miss Qin a lot of freedom. As long as she didn't run away, she could do whatever she wanted in the capital.

Even though Xiao Qing was Pei Hui's confidant, he dared not reveal the fact that Xiao Qing was pregnant.

Even those who are currently by his side will not be spared once his situation is resolved, despite his attempts to conceal it.

With Pei Hui as their backer, the Qin family has been living a very comfortable life lately.

As for whether Azhen is dead or alive, apart from Cui Ying, no one else should care.

When Cui Ying heard that Azhen had arrived, the worry on her face disappeared. Seeing Azhen walking towards her unharmed, her eyes instantly welled up with tears, and she quickly stepped forward to pull her away.

"It's good that you're alright." Cui Ying's tears kept falling. All she knew was that her daughter had suddenly disappeared, but she didn't know the specifics. The Seventh Prince felt guilty, so he wanted to take their whole family to the capital to enjoy a life of luxury. He was indeed very polite and caring towards them.

The thought that all of this was achieved at the cost of her daughter made Cui Ying feel extremely distressed.

At first, the husband was somewhat worried about his daughter's situation, but now, like everyone else, he seems to have forgotten all of that and has long been blinded by the prosperity of the capital.

Cui Ying sighed deeply. Fortunately, her daughter was back; nothing else mattered.

“They’ve gone out.” Cui Ying held onto Azhen’s hand tightly. “Your second uncle and younger uncle are now in business. With the Seventh Prince as their backer, things are going quite smoothly.”

"Your father went to work with them too."

However, Qin Shanlin was not tactful enough, did not understand human relationships, and knew nothing about business. He could only work as a handyman. He was strong and burly, which made him intimidating.

Qin Yunshu naturally studied at the academy.

Qin Shan went to a party with Zhang Guihua. She has been very keen on traveling lately to meet all sorts of friends.

Those with higher status don't really pay any attention to them.

However, some people who wanted to curry favor with the Seventh Prince liked to invite the mother and daughter.

Cui Ying was thinking about her daughter and didn't want to go out, and Zhang Guihua and her daughter didn't really want to take her along either.

"Your grandmother is inside the house," Cui Ying said last, without mentioning that there was one more person in the house than before.

She didn't intend to say anything, but Liu Hehua couldn't help but know that Azhen had returned.

"You brat, you finally know to come back. Don't you know how worried the Seventh Prince was?" Liu Hehua said in a bad tone as she walked in, looking Azhen up and down. "Where have you been these past few days? Did something happen to you? If something happened, how could you stay by the Seventh Prince's side?"

Her eyes darted around, clearly indicating that she had other ideas.

"Now that you're back, don't wander around anymore, lest you get into trouble. Take Shan'er with you wherever you go; she's more meticulous than you."

Without that brat Qin Zhen, Qin Shan wouldn't even be able to see the Seventh Prince.

They've tried recently, but the Seventh Prince has always said he's busy and refused to see them.

Because of his instructions, his men made proper arrangements for the Qin family, which gave the Qin family members even more ideas.

Cui Ying looked terrible, but she was used to swallowing her anger in front of Liu Hehua.

She glanced at the young woman supporting Liu Hehua, her expression darkening. But remembering her daughter's return, she turned her head away.

"This must be Xiao Zhen? She really is beautiful; no wonder His Highness the Seventh Prince likes her." The woman beside Liu Hehua smiled radiantly. (End of Chapter)
