After rebirth, she became the favorite of the powerful minister.

Chapter 402: Can an old friend appear in my dream?

Yuan Ge was considered tall among women, but even so, she still looked petite when standing in front of Xu Chengjin.

Even a little delicate.

Only those eyes, with their backs to the light, seemed to have a frightening yet familiar surge, covered in thick blackness like splashed ink.

People in the mountains said that Wen Qian looked a bit like Yuan Ge, but he really couldn't see it. How many people looked alike? But there was only one Yuan Ge in the world. She had the shadow of the person he liked, but also the temperament of the person he hated the most... He hated that kind of fearless and willful attitude, because he couldn't do it, so he was jealous and disliked it more and more.

Yuan Ge has always been unique to him, and this is an indisputable fact whether he is willing to admit it or not. But at this moment, for some reason, the turmoil in Wen Qian's eyes reminded Zhan Yanfeng of Yuan Ge... the little girl who had died a long time ago.

But if you ask how similar they are, I feel that they are just imitating each other... Zhan Yanfeng's eyes were slightly cold, and he said with a bit of sarcasm, "Young Madam is really a hidden talent, and she actually has some skills... It's this elder who underestimated the young madam. It's just that he - whether it's Nan Yin or Xu Chengjin, he is from my Zhixuan Mountain. I don't need to explain to the young madam that I punished a former student who forgot to respect his teacher, right? As for the two of you, it's fine if you come here without invitation. This elder can let it go because you are young and guests, but you shouldn't be so arrogant and bite me! My Zhixuan Mountain has not been as good as before in the past two years, but it is still not something your court can control if it wants to... If you want to control Zhixuan Mountain by accusing me, then you are wrong!"

He looked righteous and stern, and was the most self-disciplined and polite third elder on Zhixuan Mountain.

Whenever Yuan Ge made a mistake, although my grandfather couldn't bear to blame him, he would always pretend to punish him. At this time, the second elder was always the one who spared no effort to persuade him, and the third elder usually had such an expression, and used some great principles to righteously ask my grandfather to punish him severely - my grandfather was often put on the platform because of this, and in the end it was only after the second elder gave him a way out that he could reluctantly come down. In addition, Ma was a good cook, so Yuan Ge was closer to the second elder.

As for Zhan Yanfeng... every time this man saw him, he would frown and seem to be hesitant to speak, so Yuan Ge would naturally try to stay as far away from him as possible.

But I didn't expect that he was such a hypocritical person.

Yuan Ge looked back at Xu Chengjin's wound and saw that it was not serious. He glanced at the hand that Zhan Yanfeng had just hit and said softly, "Third Elder, you might as well ask yourself whether it is a small punishment or a big warning. You always say that you have no personal relationship with Hong Lan, so why did you want to kill her after knowing that I treated her well? The Wang brothers have already confessed that they were instructed by you to sneak into Hong Lan's courtyard and try to kill her while she was asleep... Third Elder, you really don't know?"

"Wang brothers?" Zhan Yanfeng pulled the corner of his mouth nonchalantly, lowered his head and straightened his sleeves, and asked almost gently, "There are such people on Zhixuan Mountain? How come I don't know? Haha... there is no real evidence? The young lady dares to believe the empty testimony?"

Yuan Ge also laughed.

She stood a few steps away, half of her face bathed in candlelight, the other half hidden in the darkness. She tilted her head slightly and smiled, "Whether I believe it or not is not important. I am not here to convict you, Third Elder. The Wang brothers are useless and the assassination attempt failed... I believe you feel it is a pity, and I think so too, otherwise you would have been arrested by now. However, this is only a matter of time. Whenever a wild goose passes by, it will leave a trace. You should understand this principle."

The woman in front of him tilted her head slightly and smiled sweetly, with light in her eyes. She looked like a child who was too well protected and ignorant of the world.

Even though she is married, she always calls herself "Miss".

That look unexpectedly reminded people of that child again.

Tonight, he has thought of her several times... Shao Ai's only daughter.

This made him a little unhappy.

It was as if something very important was gradually getting out of his control in a place he couldn't see, which made him feel irritated. He tightened his hands behind his back, the hand that had just struck out - he hadn't been so angry for many years. He wasn't worried about the Wang brothers being arrested. If they arrested an elder of Zhixuan Mountain without any evidence, it would probably cause chaos... If there was real evidence, Song Wenyuan would have come to arrest people long ago. Why would he let these two people come here to attack him from all sides? But these two people repeatedly made him make exceptions tonight, so he had to be on guard.

He frowned slightly, with a pure and indifferent expression, and his voice was slightly hesitant. He ordered the guest to leave again, "I am not very knowledgeable, and I really don't understand what the young lady said. It's getting late now, and the young lady is a woman, so it's better for her to go back early... If it gets out, I'm afraid it will damage my reputation."

"I'm not dead yet!" Xu Chengjin was in a bad mood at the moment, so he spoke in a more unpleasant manner, "What if it gets out? Even if it gets out, it's not like a man and a woman are alone in a room! Besides, how old are you, don't you know your own limits? Hong Lan is blind, she chose you instead of anyone else, do you think everyone in the world is blind? Oh, a little girl visiting her grandfather's elders at dinner time, and you can say something about it? It's true that people with a bad heart see everything as dirty!"

This person's words are becoming more and more irrelevant.

Yuan Ge turned around and sneered, "Shut up."

Young Master Xu pointed at Zhan Yanfeng in astonishment, and finally stopped talking in anger, with a look of reluctance on his face… Zhan Yanfeng was slightly startled as he watched this scene. As the TV was turning on, a similar scene seemed to flash through his mind, and then quickly disappeared without a trace and could not be caught.

Yuan Ge, on the contrary, bent his knees slightly and said politely, "You are right, it is too late. I heard that the Third Elder went to bed early, but it was unfortunate that I arrived and delayed his rest... I will take Mr. Xu away now." After that, he bowed again and really dragged Xu Chengjin out.

This farce was about to come to an end, just like a rainstorm in a midsummer afternoon, with loud thunder and big raindrops. The wind and rain swept through, leaving a field of broken branches and leaves, and then quickly left.

Zhan Yanfeng looked at the backs of the two people, his eyes slightly relieved, but he saw that the woman was about to step out of the door, but her feet paused, and she suddenly turned back and asked, "Third Elder... I still have something unclear. Has the old friend appeared in my dreams in these years?"

Zhan Yanfeng was startled, and his hand at his side trembled violently, but the woman curled her lips into a smile and walked away gracefully... followed by Xu Chengjin, who was stumbling and reluctant.

Did the old friend appear in the dream? The old friend... was it Yuan Ge or... If it was Yuan Ge, he was not worthy of "these years", then it was——

The answer is ready to come out.

These two people...cannot be kept!
