After the system connected the data that day, Qianqian's soul took a look at Xiao Yuanhuai, who seemed to have calmed down, and fell into a deep sleep, waiting for the new world to begin.

After Qianqian's body was completely cold, Xiao Yuanhuai finally let go of her hand. His eyes were red, but he was not crying.

"Grandfather." The ceremony of recognizing one's ancestors has been completed. No matter what one feels in one's heart, one must change the name.

"Well, Yuan Huai, Qian Qian is gone, you should bury her as soon as possible!"

"Well, how is he?"

"Who?"

"Murderer."

The Prince of Zhennan was silent for a moment, then sighed, "Zhou Yuan is gone. He was in poor health to begin with, and he didn't make it through this ordeal!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yuanhuai still had a cold face: "How do you plan to deal with him?"

The Prince of Zhennan guessed that his meaning was not that simple, but he didn't know what it was specifically: "This person has already gone, what else do we need to do with him?"

"Grandfather, he is a murderer. The state has its own rules and the family has its own rules. The law of our dynasty is that the murderer must pay with his life and compensate the victim for all losses. But Qianqian is my priceless treasure. How can I compensate her?"

"This……"

"I haven't talked about the family rules yet. I don't know if the palace has any family rules. What is the crime of killing a loved one, and what is the punishment?"

Prince Zhennan paused for a long time. Xiao Yuanhuai was not in a hurry. He just stood up and looked at him indifferently.

Prince Zhennan looked at his expression and felt that if he didn't handle the situation well, he might lose his grandson.

After weighing the two options, he finally made a choice: "Remove Zhou Yuan from the family tree, and all his property will belong to you!"

Xiao Yuanhuai's mouth twitched at this, but he couldn't laugh: "Grandfather, have you ever thought about how a person like him could walk here by himself and do such a thing?"

"You mean?"

"I don't know anything, otherwise why would it come to this? I'm just guessing now. He won't live long anyway, so why would he come here to die? Is there someone crazy who is using him to do this?"

The Prince of Zhennan looked stern, as if he had thought of something: "Grandfather understands, and will have someone investigate, you can rest assured."

Xiao Yuanhuai thanked him, then picked up Qianqian's body and was about to leave. Seeing this, the Prince of Zhennan was afraid that something might happen again, so he ordered the butler: "Old Zhou, go help the eldest young master prepare for the eldest young mistress's funeral!"

Yes, from the moment he said this, there was no Zhou Yuan in the palace anymore, and the current eldest grandson was Xiao Yuanhuai, not Zhou Yuanhuai!

When the incident happened before, Prince Zhennan blocked the news immediately. Now seeing Zhou Yuan appear with someone in his arms, the blood-red color was shocking.

The servants were all terrified, but they dared not make trouble. The rules of the palace were evident. Zhou Yuanhuai sneered, but there were indeed no rules, no moral principles between husband and wife, and father and son in his biological father's courtyard.

At this time, the news spread throughout the palace like the wind. When Qianqian came today, she did not bring Nanny Li and Xiaocui with her.

Therefore, Zhou Yuanhuai was halfway through his journey when he met two people running towards him from afar. Xiao Cui was supporting Nanny Li, their hair was messy, and Nanny Li had lost one of her shoes.

Seeing the scene in front of her, the trace of disbelief she had originally had suddenly collapsed. Their young lady had really gone. Li Ma couldn't bear it anymore and slid to the ground: "Young lady, young lady, my young lady! If only we could go with her today!"

She kept beating her chest, feeling extremely painful; Xiao Cui's face was also covered with tears, and she sobbed while holding onto Nanny Li.

Zhou Yuanhuai walked up to the two of them and did not try to persuade them. He just said calmly, "Mammy, Xiao Cui, get up and help Qianqian change her clothes!"

"grown ups?"

"Qianqian said she would come back!"

"Sir!" Nanny Li was shocked when she heard that. She said why did this man usually look the most nervous about the young lady, but now he looked so indifferent. Was he crazy?

Zhou Yuanhuai sighed, Nanny Li's expression was too obvious: "I'm fine, I promised her that I would take good care of myself, be fine, and be happy, so that he will come back in the future!"

Nanny Li didn’t understand. She even forgot to cry for a moment. She looked at Xiao Cui, not knowing what to do.

Zhou Yuanhuai reminded them again: "Think about it carefully. Did Qianqian say or do anything before?"

Hearing this, Nanny Li thought of how the young lady had given them the indenture, as well as the house, shop and silver. She also knew that the other shops were given to the man in front of her.

So, is this really the case?

Although he still didn't quite believe it, this guidance did dispel some of his sadness. However, when Xiao Cui helped him up and he saw the dagger on the young lady's chest and the large pools of blood, he couldn't help but feel sad.

It’s over, the young lady is dead and the master seems to have gone crazy!

Zhou Yuanhuai continued walking forward, step by step to their yard, and put the person on her bed.

He calmed himself down and pulled out the dagger. The blood in Qianqian's body coagulated and no more blood flowed out.

He originally wanted to do the last leg of the journey himself, but since they had not yet consummated their marriage, he asked Nanny Li and Xiao Cui to do it.

He calmly followed the housekeeper's instructions for the following steps until the body was buried and the tablet was placed in the ancestral hall, but no miracle happened.

He ate well and rested well every day, even though he heard that his father's legitimate wife was accused of instigating the murder of the royal bloodline.

But due to the lack of evidence and only the one-sided statements of a few servants, she was finally divorced.

Of course, if she returned to her parents' home with such a crime, she would not have a good ending.

In addition, the Prince of Zhennan petitioned for the title of Crown Prince, but when the imperial edict was issued, it was revealed that the Crown Prince of Zhennan was himself, Zhou Yuanhuai, and not his father.

Seeing the man's joyful expression, she lost her composure in a second and looked back and forth between Prince Zhennan and him in disbelief.

Zhou Yuanhuai sneered in his heart. Why did he think that the King of Zhennan would ask for a title?

If the Prince of Zhennan was willing, why wait until now?

Is it really because of offspring?

No, that's because the Prince of Zhennan knew that if he handed the future of the palace to a son who had no strength and no character, the Prince of Zhennan's Palace would only decline.

So, the Prince of Zhennan had been waiting, and finally he waited for himself.

The eldest son waited for a long time without hearing any other explanation, and finally realized that this was the result. He looked at Zhou Yuanhuai angrily, and his eyes seemed to show that he wanted to eat him.

Look, Qianqian, this is the palace, this is a noble family, but you have to wait a little longer, wait until I have completely taken control of the palace, wait until I have no worries, then when you come back, everything will be best.

A few years later, Xiao Cui got married to Zhou Yuanhuai's subordinate, and her marriage was relatively happy.

Many years later, Nanny Li had grown old and passed away.

But before she left, she tearfully advised him, who was already the Prince of Zhennan: "My Lord, the young lady has left, you must be well!"

Zhou Yuanhuai replied: "I have been waiting for her well!"

He never remarried in his life, but he adopted several children from other branches and also adopted a son. At that time, he had the final say in the palace and no one dared to question him.

But Zhou Yuanhuai never waited for Lu Qianqian in his entire life.

When he was dying, he seemed to see his beloved girl again, smiling and saying, "You are well, wait for me!"

"fraud!"
