What was that just now?

Lian simply decided not to say anything more. After hesitating for a moment, she turned and left.She found out from Changhe that Yuan Buyu also had multiple private properties in the capital, spanning...Fu Shangyuan nodded, not expecting his son to be so intelligent.

"Yeah, besides being angry, I'm worried too."

But your foster parents' situation was far more complicated than the example Your Majesty just gave. Don't worry, your mother is just angry, she wouldn't really do anything to your foster father.

"As long as he's truly back this time."

Women are all like that, tough on the outside but soft on the inside.

Every time she heard news about Zong Yu, Fang Jinshu would always lose her mind for a long time.

She still had some errands to check in the city today, but she was lost in thought on the carriage for a long time. Seeing this, Xiaoyue told the driver herself to go to those places.

Everything else was also confirmed by Xiaoyue.

When it was time to return home, Xiaoyue saw that Shao Fu was still gloomy. She had a bottle of wine in her hand at some point, and she didn't know when she had gotten it.

Her cheeks were flushed, clearly from having had quite a bit to drink.

After drinking, Fang Jinshui was more likely to open up and share her thoughts than usual. Things she usually kept bottled up inside, unwilling or unable to say, would come out after a few drinks.

Just as this was happening, Xiaoyue came over to take her wine bottle. She blushed and grabbed Xiaoyue's wrist with one hand.

"You said that since he's safe and sound and coming back, why won't he write a letter to let us know he's alright"

"Amnesia, amnesia can you forget all our feelings"

"Ayu, do you not like me anymore"

Xiaoyue looked at the young mistress's fragile and sorrowful expression, her heart ached for her.

In the eyes of outsiders, she was a formidable woman, powerful enough to rival most men in this world. There seemed to be nothing she couldn't handle.

Now she was a crumpled heap, tears welling in her eyes, drunk on despair, all because the old man had never sent a single letter home.

He didn't even give a word of explanation for breaking his promise, nor did he send back a simple message to say he was safe. Xiaoyue had already scolded her grandpa countless times in her heart.

Even so, she knew that Madam cared most about the master.

"Madam, the master doesn't know."

He values his family most, and he would never forget you, grandpa.

Fang Jinshu chuckled, Mu Shi and everyone in the family didn't know that Zong Yu was injured and lost his memory. Only she and Fu Ming knew about it.

If he truly remembered himself, how could he forget their three-year agreement

Fang Jinshi frowned, trembling and raising her hand to grab the clothes on her chest.

It hurts so much, for three years.

Damn it, if you don't want to come back, at least send a letter! Give us some peace of mind.

To have no word at all is something else.

She raised the wine jug in her hand and poured another large mouthful into her mouth. The pungent liquor burned its way down her throat, making every cell in her body scream with heat.

Fang Jinshi doesn't like drinking. The taste of alcohol is really not good at all.

But after drinking it, her brain would become fuzzy and she wouldn't be able to remember anything. She would also forget the feeling of anxiety and heartache she had been experiencing at that moment.

Xiaoyue's attempt to persuade Fang Jinshi to drink failed. By the time the carriage returned to the foot of the mountain, Fang Jinshi was already quite drunk.

"Madam, please don't run around. Xiaoyue will help you back to rest. If Old Madam sees you like this, she'll be worried again."

Xiaoyue picked a less crowded path to take Fang Jinshi back home. On the way, they met Zhao Xingzhou who had been waiting for them to return.

"Madam, what's wrong"

He had just finished asking when he smelled a strong scent of alcohol.

"Master Zhao, please don't ask any more. Call Jin Yu over quickly and have her come help."

After Fang Jinxiu got drunk, she became restless. Xiaoyue tried to hold her up but couldn't manage it. Zhao Xingzhou almost reached out to help her, until he saw Xiaoyue's vigilant eyes and reacted immediately, retracting his hand.

"I'll go get it right away."

He is now just a bodyguard for their family, he doesn't even have the qualifications to touch her.

Zhao Xingzhou bowed his head and left to call someone. Just then, he suddenly saw a black shadow flash across the wall.

“Who!” He instantly tensed, his whole body rigid as he stared in that direction and shouted.

By this time, the sky had darkened completely. Although there were two lanterns held by people around, they couldn't illuminate the surrounding area.

Xiaoyue nervously hurriedly hugged her young mistress.

"Young Master Zhao, just now, what was that"

Zhao Xingzhou felt something was wrong.

"First, take Madam back and close the door. I'll go have a look." room, not coming out. All she did was stare into space.Things outside the capital have been in utter chaos these past few days. First, the Xixia prince was poisoned to death, and the Xixia delegation...
