"Let Lin Yi and the others send people over to arrest them and see how many of them are left!"

As Pei Jin spoke, he checked Chan Yi's hand and stuffed the medicine bottle into Chan Yi's pocket.

"Chan Yi, let Mother Zhou change the medicine for you again tonight. Your skin is too delicate. Remember, never touch water." He hugged Chan Yi's shoulders, leaned his head on her, and took a deep breath reluctantly, "Come on, I'll take you back home."

"Go and do your thing. I can walk on my own." Chan Yi shook her head and looked at him with her watery eyes. "Those rebels who escaped are still waiting for you to deal with them."

"No rush, I'll take you home first." Pei Jin picked up Chan Yi and was about to leave without any explanation.

"Young Master, that...that Miss Lu from the Marquis of Wuyang's Mansion has been rescued, but she was such a spoiled young lady that she was frightened to death and is now unconscious! The Marquis' wife has just arrived, and she is so anxious that she doesn't know what to do..." Mo Yan didn't know that Chan Yi was inside. Thinking that the Marquis of Wuyang's wife had been standing at the gate of Jingzhao Mansion asking to see her own Young Master, he was about to ask what to do.

"Didn't I hear you go prepare the car? You're worrying about other people's business!" Pei Jin's voice suddenly became extremely cold.

"Yes, Your Highness." Mo Yan didn't know what he had said wrong, and hurriedly took the order and left.

"Put me down. I don't want to be criticized." Chan Yi said in a low voice.

"Okay." Pei Jin leaned over and kissed her forehead gently, saying, "It's my fault. I was too anxious and didn't consider your feelings. Don't worry, we'll go out the back door. I'll go to my uncle's place and tell him in person, don't worry."

Pei Jin helped Chan Yi out of the back door, helped her into the carriage, and asked Mo Yan to drive himself, and then let her go reluctantly.

When Mo Yan saw Chan Yi, his face turned pale with fear, and he stammered, "Young Madam, no, Miss, what I just said... was because I spoke too much."

"It's okay, just drive." Chan Yi was thinking about her own Xiao An and didn't think much about Mo Yan's words.

When she returned to Tingyuxuan, she saw Xiao An'er waiting for her pitifully with tears in his eyes. Her heart softened and she hugged him regardless of the pain in her hands.

When winter was approaching, her mother wanted her to wean An'er, but she was reluctant to do so. She was afraid that An'er would not be able to adapt to the cold weather, so she decided to wait until next spring when the weather was warmer.

Mother Zhou had sharp eyes and had already noticed the ointment on Chan Yi's palm. She hugged An Er and said, "Girl, what's wrong with your hand?"

"It's okay, just some scratches." Chan Yi unbuttoned her clothes, and An'er rushed over impatiently, hugging his mother and laughing foolishly.

"Eat." Chan Yi tapped his little nose, and An'er grinned at his mother even more happily, "Why, you're not hungry now?"

"Miss, the young master is just trying to make you happy." Mother Zhou said with a smile, "Our young master is the most considerate to mother, and he will definitely be a filial son in the future."

"Oh oh..." Little An'er tilted his head back and squinted his eyes. When he saw his mother smiling, he hugged his mother and started sucking.

Chan Yi hugged An'er. The little baby was growing so fast. He had grown so big in the blink of an eye.

Pei Jin watched Chan Yi's carriage go farther and farther away until he could no longer see it. He then slowly turned around and walked back. He felt half sweet and half sad. When would Chan Yi open her heart and accept him? Alas, he was not good enough to her.

"Prince Pei, hey, why are you still here? Someone is looking for you." Du Shaoyin of Jingzhao Prefecture walked over from the front and was a little surprised to see his unhurried look. Maybe he didn't know that someone was blocking him at the gate of the government office?

"Who?" Pei Jin asked indifferently, still thinking about Chan Yi.

"Well, Master Pei, you really don't know?" Seeing that he looked clueless, Du Shaoyin hurried over and said, "The wife of Marquis Wuyang is anxious to find you. She said she has something important to discuss with you."

"What does she want to talk to me about?" Pei Jin suddenly remembered Mo Yan's hesitant look and hurriedly stood up and walked forward.

"Prince Pei." The wife of Marquis Wuyang was anxiously waiting at the gate of the government office. When she saw him coming out alone, she immediately shouted in surprise and joy.

"Madam." Pei Jin bowed slightly.

"Prince Pei, my Jingqiu..." Madam Wuyang Hou looked at the people coming and going at the door and couldn't help but stop talking awkwardly, "Prince, may I have a word with you?"

"Madam, I have something else to tell someone, please wait a moment." Pei Jin said lightly.

The wife of Marquis Wuyang saw him walking towards the porridge stall of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and was thoughtful.

When she heard that Pei Jin had committed treason and the entire Yong'an Marquisate was executed, she was terrified. She was worried about the Yong'an Marquisate, but also very glad that she broke off the engagement with them, otherwise her daughter's life would have been in danger.

However, in just a few days, the situation changed dramatically. Li Taifu and his party were executed, and the King of Nanyang came to power and made his debut with the Marquis of Changning. They secretly colluded with the Rong State, and the capital was shrouded in crisis.

Before these wealthy families could recover from their shock, the rebels launched a riot that night. The army that marched straight in was not the Rong army at all, but reinforcements that had traveled thousands of miles from the south.

Overnight, the rebels were uprooted, and Marquis Changning and his gang were thrown into death row awaiting their fate. The man behind the scenes, the most hidden King Nanyang, was imprisoned by the emperor.

All this happened so quickly that it was jaw-dropping. Then, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince returned, and Pei Jin emerged as a meritorious official. Everyone knew that this time, the Yong'an Marquisate would be invaluable.

When she learned that the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion was providing disaster relief, she couldn't bear to see her daughter's distressed face, so she agreed to let her daughter out. However, she ended up making things worse, and it almost became a tragedy. Fortunately, her daughter was lucky. The wife of the Marquis of Wuyang was full of luck.

"Madam, Master Pei clearly carried a man in his arms just now, and they were very affectionate. I saw it clearly." The maidservant in green clothes who was supporting the wife of Marquis Wuyang said with a sad face, "Those people also saw it just now, and they said that Master Pei might not be interested in women."

Madam Wuyang Marquis glared at the maidservant fiercely and said angrily, "Shut up! It was you guys who instigated the young lady, and that’s why she was held hostage by the bad guys. If it wasn’t for Master Pei saving her, you wouldn’t be alive today!"

The maid was so frightened that she trembled and dared not say anything more.

"Madam, please speak frankly if you have anything to say." Pei Jin arranged the matter with Chan Yi and took the wife of Marquis Wuyang to a secluded place in the government office.

"Prince Pei, thank you for saving our Jingqiu without holding grudges," Marquis Wuyang's wife leaned forward, her face showing a look of sorrow, "We were indeed a bit unrighteous in that matter, please forgive us, Prince."

"Madam, there is no need to mention the past. It was our Yong'an Marquis Mansion that made the mistake first." Pei Jin said in a deep voice.

"Master Pei, my Jingqiu treated you..." Lady Wuyang Hou took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears, her voice gradually becoming choked.
