"Bei Yi found it hard to accept Linglong's death and couldn't help but be excited. If you have any disrespect towards her, I hope that she can stay a bit longer."

"That depends on how disrespectful he is. I had no intention of provoking anyone."

"I will restrain him."

Shangguan Nanyi was also worried that Shangguan Beiyi would do something out of the ordinary, so he had already asked the Madam Shen to look for Shangguan Beiyi.

Feng Qingying was also shocked that she could still speak to him in such a calm manner at a time like this. If she was in his place, she might not be as polite as she was now.

After all, she and Shangguan Nanyi had a blood feud against each other.

"Is the Marquis still busy?"

Seeing that Shangguan Nanyi still had something to say, since Feng Qingying asked and something like that happened, she and Shangguan Nanyi no longer had anything to say. Whether it was apologizing or forgiving, it all seemed a little sudden.

Shangguan Nanyi seemed to still have something to say, he opened his mouth, but in the end he did not say anything. He stood up and was about to leave when Shangguan Beiyi suddenly barged into the courtyard.

When he saw Shangguan Nanyi, he was slightly startled and quickly walked in front of the two of them.

"Bei Yi, it just so happens that I have something to tell you. Follow me back."

When Shangguan Nanyi finished speaking, he went to grab onto Shangguan Beiyi's sleeves. Shangguan Beiyi stood there unmoving, but there was some hatred in his eyes, and he said with a straight face, "Esteemed wangfei, Linglong's death is related to you. I do not dare to ask for anything else from you, but for you, esteemed wangfei should go to the Spirit Shrine to guard Linglong."

Feng Qingying would naturally not go, her tone was extremely cold: "Second Young Master is joking, if I were to give Linglong Spirit Shrouding, I'm afraid that even she, who is in the underworld, would not be at ease, she would not be able to take it."

"Princess, you're overthinking things. Everything has its own karma. How could Linglong not be able to handle it?"

"Bei Yi, stop messing around. Follow me back immediately." Shangguan Nanyi reprimanded with a cold face.

"Bro, I really doubt if Linglong is your sister. Just what do you care about? My request isn't too much."

"If you really want Linglong to be good, then stop tormenting her."

"Hur hur, you are really smitten by this woman." Shangguan Beiyi was extremely furious. He knew that Feng Qingying was leaving tomorrow, so he wanted to do something for Shangguan Linglong and let her go this easily.

He knew that he could not take Feng Qingying's life, but more so, he wanted to teach Feng Qingying a lesson.

Seeing Shangguan Nanyi defending Feng Qingying like this, the anger in his heart grew even stronger. His brain got hot, and he suddenly attacked Feng Qingying.

Feng Qingying avoided his attack agilely, she blocked in front and grabbed onto Shangguan Beiyi's fist, "Bei Yi, are you not going to listen to brother anymore?"

"Normally, I would listen to everything you say, but this time, I really can't understand why you want to do this. Brother, if it was really for the sake of Duke Changping's Mansion, you wouldn't have disobeyed mother's advice and insisted on looking for the Soul Absorbing Orb. If you were stubborn, why would you not allow Linglong to be stubborn?"

Shangguan Nanyi's expression was dark and unclear, "You're right, this matter was my fault from the beginning to end, and the things that you said should also be done by me."

After saying that, Shangguan Nanyi released his hand and forcefully pulled Shangguan Beiyi away.

"Princess, what should we do?"

"We'll deal with it when it's time, we'll deal with it when it's time."

Thus, Forsythia didn't say anything more.

On the second day, they left the Duke Changping's Mansion but Shangguan Nanyi and Shangguan Beiyi did not appear.

Shangguan Nanyi stood at the city gate and watched the carriage leave the city.

Master Hou, you've been standing here for several hours already.

Seeing that Shangguan Nanyi had no intention to leave, the butler behind him reminded him.

After withdrawing his gaze, Shangguan Nanyi suddenly let out a light sigh. Who knows how long he would have to wait until the next time they met.

"Uncle Fang, send someone to watch over Bei Yi."

Uncle Fang understood what Shangguan Nanyi meant, he did not ask further, and agreed, "Master Hou, don't worry, I understand."

"Let's go!"

Seeing that the carriage had disappeared into the meandering road, Shangguan Nanyi turned and left.

Uncle Fang accompanied them as they stood there for several hours. The cold wind that blew for so long had long since frozen stiff. His legs were still aching, so he could finally leave.

A few nights later, Shangguan Beiyi received a letter. After reading the letter, he passed it to his personal guard, Liu Zhao, and ordered, "Burn it."

"Young master, this letter was sent from Beijing. Won't you show it to Master Hou?"

Liu Zhao asked in surprise.

Usually, when their master received a letter, he would give it to Shangguan Nanyi immediately, but this time, he actually burned it. This was indeed abnormal, as he knew that after Shangguan Linglong met with mishap, the two brothers became estranged.

Who would have thought that the gap was already so wide.

Shangguan Beiyi leaned against the wide chair, and was extremely exhausted, "If Big Brother knew, he would definitely have stopped us. He has already been captivated by Princess Hua-Yang, I will do all of this myself, there's no need to let him know."

"What does the capital want young master to do?"

"The letter was written by Yang An. They sent the concubine from Prince Regent's Palace to Quanzhou."

"Side concubine?" Liu Zhao wasn't too familiar with Prince Regent's Palace, so he didn't know who the secondary wife Shangguan Beiyi was talking about was.

"The secondary wife in Yang An's letter is the empress dowager's niece, and the empress dowager went insane within a month of entering the palace. Presumably, she also hates the imperial concubine to the bones, and in two days, she will arrive at the Quanzhou.

Liu Zhao didn't understand Shangguan Beiyi's intentions, "How should I settle this after receiving it! Young Master, do you wish to stay by your side? "

Shangguan Beiyi disdainfully said, "How could I want a woman from the Prince Regent? Since Linglong is no longer here, then I will take her as my sworn sister. Big brother and mother have no reason to object to it and give her some good tutelage, maybe I can even change my appearance and send her to the capital.

Shangguan Beiyi was still unwilling, but Shangguan Nanyi kept staring at him, even if he wanted to, he could not do anything. Now that there was such a good opportunity, he would naturally not let it go.

Linglong, that's all I can do for you. Can you rest in peace in the underworld?

After Shangguan Linglong died, Shangguan Beiyi was unable to eat and sleep at ease for the past few days, and his entire body looked dispirited and listless. He didn't expect that he would have such a huge difference in this matter with Shangguan Nanyi.

"Young master, the marquis may have his troubles. Young master, please don't get angry with the marquis. This will only hurt the madame's spirit."

Shangguan Beiyi didn't say anything. This matter only made him feel especially disappointed, he normally would listen to Shangguan Nanyi, but he didn't expect him to not help his own people at such a crucial time.

This matter had originally been caused by the two brothers, so even if Shangguan Linglong had done wrong, he still felt that he had let Shangguan Linglong down.

Right and wrong were not important to him, he would definitely stand by Shangguan Linglong's side.

"Hurry up and burn the letter. There's no need to say anything else."

Shangguan Beiyi didn't want to say anything more, so Liu Zhao didn't ask any further and took the letter on the table to burn.
