Huanzhu Time Travel: Yan Luo's Unbreakable Love in the Yong Dynasty

After leaving the Prince of Heshuo's residence, Hongli searched everywhere for Hongzhou's whereabouts. Finally, he found Hongzhou dead drunk in a secluded corner of a tavern.

Hongli frowned and stepped forward to help Hongzhou up: "Fifth Prince, why are you doing this?"

Hongzhou looked at Hongli with blurry, drunken eyes and said with a bitter smile, "Fourth Brother, why? Why can't she like me? What is it about me that I don't like?"

Hongli sighed softly: "Fifth Prince, matters of the heart cannot be forced. What's the point of torturing yourself like this?"

Hongzhou struggled to his feet and shouted, "Fourth Brother, you make it sound so easy! Now that you're living happily ever after with Xiaoyanzi, have you ever thought about how I feel?"

Hongli's expression hardened: "Hongzhou, don't lose your composure! Xiaoyanzi and I are in love, and you are already married to Dili Leyao, so you should treat your wife well."

Upon hearing Hongli's words, Hongzhou felt a pang of pain in his heart and remained silent.

Meanwhile, at Prince Bao's residence, Xiao Yanzi was discussing with Fucha Fuheng how to deal with the Shadow Pavilion.

Xiao Yanzi was extremely anxious: "Lord Fuheng, Empress Yixiu is behind this, and the Shadow Pavilion is so rampant. What should we do?"

Fu Heng pondered for a moment and said, "My lady, our most urgent task is to stabilize the situation. Although Gao Wuyong has implicated Empress Yixiu, we do not yet have conclusive evidence and should not act rashly."

Little Swallow nodded: "What you say makes sense, but I'm worried they might have other schemes up their sleeves."

Fucha Fuheng said, "Don't worry, my lady. I have arranged for people to strengthen security around the Prince's residence in case of any unforeseen circumstances."

Just then, Xiao Tao rushed over: "Madam, something terrible has happened! Lord Lin has been falsely accused of embezzlement and bribery and has been imprisoned!"

Little Swallow was shocked: "What? This must be a conspiracy by the Shadow Pavilion. They want to use this to threaten me!"

Xiao Yanzi was extremely anxious and wanted to rush to save her father immediately, but Fucha Fuheng quickly stopped her: "Madam, you must not act rashly! If you go now, you will play right into their hands. We need to plan this carefully."

Little Swallow's eyes were filled with tears: "Lord Fuheng, that's my father. How can I just stand by and watch him suffer?"

Fu Heng comforted her, saying, "My lady, I understand how you feel. I will definitely find a way to find out the truth and rescue Lord Lin. You stay here and wait for news, and do not act rashly."

Little Swallow had no choice but to nod.

Inside the palace, Empress Yixiu and Rong Momo were having a secret conversation.

Empress Yixiu's eyes turned sinister: "Hmph! Hongli and Xiaoyanzi, do you think you can do anything to me just because you've captured Gao Wuyong? I have a backup plan."

Rong Momo said obsequiously, "Your Majesty is wise. With Lord Lin arrested, Xiao Yanzi will surely be thrown into disarray."

Empress Yixiu sneered, "This is just the beginning. I will let them know that there will be no good end for those who oppose me."

Meanwhile, at the Prince Heshuo's residence, Hongzhou gradually regained his senses, his heart filled with remorse.

Dilireyao entered the room, looked at Hongzhou, her eyes filled with concern and grievance: "Your Highness, why do you torture yourself like this? Do you know how sad I am?"

Hong Zhou looked at Dili Leyao and felt a pang of guilt: "Leyao, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have let my feelings get the better of me and ignored your feelings."

Dilire Yao gently grasped Hong Zhou's hand: "Your Highness, as long as you change your mind, I will no longer hold it against you. Let's live a good life and not get involved in those disputes anymore."

Hongzhou was silent for a moment, then slowly nodded: "Leyao, I will try to let go."

Little Swallow waited anxiously for news in the Prince's mansion, silently praying that her father would be safe and sound.

She said to Azhu, "Azhu, do you think the prince can find a way to rescue my father?"

A-Zhu comforted her, "Madam, the Prince and Lord Fuheng are both capable men, they will definitely rescue Lord Lin. Please take care of yourself and don't worry too much."

Little Swallow paced back and forth in the room: "How can I not be anxious? It all started because of me. If I hadn't gotten involved in the Shadow Pavilion's affairs, Father wouldn't have suffered this calamity."

At this moment, Hongli hurriedly returned to the Prince's Palace.

Little Swallow rushed forward: "Your Highness, how is it? Is there any way to rescue Father?"

Hongli's expression was grave: "My dear consort, this matter is thorny. The person who framed us did it flawlessly. We need to find the key evidence to overturn the case."

Xiao Yanzi said firmly, "Your Highness, no matter what, I will face this with you. We cannot let the Shadow Pavilion succeed."

Hongli looked at Xiaoyanzi, his heart filled with emotion and admiration: "My beloved consort, rest assured, I will not let you down."

Unbeknownst to them, the Shadow Pavilion is secretly plotting a far greater conspiracy, and a crisis threatening to overthrow the court is imminent. Can they find a way out of the numerous difficulties and protect each other and the peace of the court? Everything is uncertain. Only by holding firm to their beliefs and working together can they survive the turbulent waves of court intrigue, continue their legendary story, fearlessly facing obstacles and awaiting the light of hope.
