Zhan Yan pulled her out and asked, "What's wrong? Miss Chan'er, has your fever subsided?"

Chan'er was so cold that her eyes rolled back. Her nose and tears streamed down her face as she kept shouting, "I'm freezing to death! Chan'er is freezing to death! Please, Lord, please let Chan'er go!"

Zhan Yan was immediately dissatisfied. He frowned and asked, "You clearly said this method was effective, but then you said you were almost frozen to death. What do you want from me?"

Meeting his eyes filled with anger, Zener was in a trance for a moment.

She originally thought that Zhan Yan was punishing her on purpose, but she didn't expect that he actually thought this method could reduce her fever?

After thinking for a moment, she said, "It is very effective. I am no longer hot. If you don't believe me, just touch my head!"

Zhan Yan refused to touch it. Since she said it was no longer hot, he ordered someone to take the ice water away.

Chaner was curled up in the quilt, looking extremely miserable.

However, she still had to bring up business. She couldn't stay in the inn forever. She wanted to cause trouble to Zhan Yan, causing his wife and children to be separated. Then, Emperor Sheng An would become suspicious of her, and the emperor and his ministers would kill each other. By then, the entire Sheng Dynasty would fall into decline.

Thinking of this, Chan'er clutched the blanket tightly and said, "My Lord, now that you've brought Chan'er back to the inn, I'm yours. How do you plan to accommodate me?"

Zhan Yihou asked calmly, "What do you think?"

Chan'er gave a bitter smile: "Chan'er has been lonely since childhood, thanks to Master for raising me. Whether I am your concubine or your maid, I only hope that the Marquis can give me a place to stay!"

Zhan Yan's eyes flashed with a hint of ridicule, and he said obscurely, "It seems that not only did you save my life, but you also want to marry me? If I ask you to be a concubine or a maid, it would be too unfair!"

Zener's heart suddenly began to beat wildly. He felt wronged. Did he ask her to be his wife?

What about Lin Yiwan?

He wouldn't let her go, would he?

Could such a good thing happen?

Just when she was extremely confused, Zhan Yan said in a deep voice: "I have a manor in the suburbs of Beijing. You can go there to recuperate first. We can talk about it after you have fully recovered!"

Chaner's face suddenly changed. She couldn't stay outside, otherwise, how could she sow discord between him and Lin Yiwan?

She pleaded pitifully, "My Lord, I don't want to go to the manor. I've always been timid. If I get bullied, I'll have no one to turn to for help!"

Zhan Yan interrupted without hesitation: "If you don't want to go to the farm, then go back to the Buddhist temple. After all, I will not treat you, my savior, unfairly. I will give you silver every month!"

Zener thought to himself, what I lack is money?

You want to get rid of me like this? No way!

In that case, we can only stay in the inn first and then slowly make plans.

Thinking of this, she murmured, "It would be better to stay at the inn. Chan'er is seriously injured. If anything goes wrong, we can ask the Marquis for help in time!"

Zhan Yan nodded: "Alright, I will order someone to rent this house for a long time!"

After saying that, he turned and left in a hurry.

Zener's eyes flashed slightly, she must enter the room.

She asked someone to bring paper and pen, wrote a secret letter, and then sent it out secretly.

Zhan Yan sent someone to follow him, but found that the man was very alert and turned into a dark alley and disappeared.

He searched everywhere but found no trace of him.

He didn't expect that Qiu Jiang Lao's people would be so cautious, but he was not disappointed. After all, Chan'er was still under his control, so he didn't have to worry about not being able to catch Qiu Jiang Lao.

When Zhan Yan returned to Li Wang Mansion, he had changed his clothes.

He didn't want the aura of the Buddhist woman to come in contact with Lin Yiwan, as he felt it was unlucky.

She had already woken up at this time and was being fed by Ling'er with red date porridge to replenish her qi and blood.

After Zhan Yan cleaned his hands, he said, "Ling'er, it's my turn!"

Ling'er responded respectfully: "Yes!"

She put the bowl of porridge into Zhan Yan's hand and walked out quickly.

Zhan Yan placed the spoon next to her lips and said gently, "Wanwan, does your wound still hurt?"

Lin Yiwan muttered, "At first, I didn't feel any pain. I just thought I was going to be free soon. But now, it hurts so much that it's hard to even breathe!"

Because she had a caesarean section, Meiying had to help her drain the lochia, which was so painful that she broke out in cold sweats all over.

Zhan Yan felt extremely guilty and he wished that all these sins would be committed by himself.

He said hoarsely, "I'll just have to endure this for once. I'll go find my grandfather later and ask him to think of a way to find me a reliable way to avoid pregnancy!"

Lin Yiwan looked at him in shock: "You, you want to avoid pregnancy?"

Zhan Yan replied solemnly: "Yes, I don't want to hurt your body anymore. Three children are enough!"

Lin Yiwan was deeply touched. Zhan Yan really cared about her.

In a moment, she lost her appetite.

She leaned tiredly on the couch and said, "Ah Yan, is there any news about Qiu Tang?"

Zhan Yan frowned and said, "Not yet. Your uncle is looking for her like crazy, sleepless nights. I'm worried that if he continues like this, he'll wear himself out!"

Lin Yiwan could understand it. If she disappeared, Zhan Yan would probably go crazy too, right?

She was silent for a moment before she slowly said, "Ah Yan, don't you find it strange? Why would the remnants of the previous dynasty show up and kidnap Qiu Tang? What can she do for them?"

Zhan Yan replied: "Painting?"

Lin Yiwan suddenly remembered something and immediately said, "You're right. Qiu Tang learned his master's unique skill of painting an old man at the age of three, so they want to rely on Qiu Tang to find him!"

Zhan Yan's cold eyes suddenly narrowed. The person that Qiu Jiang was looking for must be very important, otherwise, he wouldn't have made such a big fuss.

Could it be the bloodline of the Qiu family?

But at that time, he personally wiped out the Qiu clan and left no one alive!

No, he has to go into the palace and look at the roster records again.

Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still.

He stood up and said, "Wanwan, I'm going to the palace. What you said gives me a new clue. I think the Qiu family must be hiding an heir. I have to check the roster!"

Lin Yiwan nodded: "I'm also sleepy, you go ahead, but be careful!"

Zhan Yan turned around and left quickly, taking Ying with him and running straight to the palace.

At this time, he didn't know that many beggars suddenly gathered under the wall of the backyard of the palace.

They all shouted, "Marquis Zhan Yi has a new lover! He's keeping a mistress at the Qingfeng Inn. She's a pure Buddhist woman. She's been studying Buddhism since she was young. She's noble and kind, a true Bodhisattva!"

The guards immediately drove them away, but they gathered more and more, and their shouting almost blew off the roof of the palace.

Lin Yiwan was originally asleep, but was suddenly woken up.

She asked Ling'er, who looked grim, in surprise, "What's going on outside? Why is it so noisy?"
