”I also regret telling Linglong about this, but what can I do about it? Brother, how do you plan on dealing with Linglong? The wangfei must have lied. She was the one who killed Linglong.”

Shangguan Nanyi walked over to Shangguan Linglong's bed and looked at Shangguan Linglong who was lying on the bed without moving for a long time. He did not say anything, his own sister had died miserably, how could he not be aware?

”Brother, mother still doesn't know about this. Sooner or later, she will know. When that time comes, how will mother's body be able to handle it?”

”I'll go talk to my mother.”

Finally, Shangguan Nanyi opened his mouth.

”Is this the end of this matter?” Shangguan Beiyi opened his eyes wide, his face was filled with disbelief.

”We are at fault, what do you want to do!”

”I …” Shangguan Beiyi also didn't know what he was planning to do, it would be unjustifiable for Feng Qingying to take revenge. This matter was indeed Shangguan Linglong's fault, but if he were to let Feng Qingying off like this, he wouldn't be able to swallow his anger.

Bei Yi, Linglong is our blood sister, but she shouldn't be involved in this. The wangfei saved her life, and is the benefactor of all of our Duke Changping's Mansion, so she used such a vicious method to take away our wangfei's life. What should the people think of our Duke Changping's Mansion? ”

Shangguan Beiyi thought that he had misheard, and retorted, ”Brother, the one who wanted the life of the wangfei before was you, and you were the one who prepared those flies. I don't know why you suddenly changed your mind, and I don't care what mistakes Linglong committed, the one who harmed her is my enemy.”

”Bei Yi, this matter shall end here. In the future, do not bring up this matter again.”

”Impossible, I cannot let my sister die in vain.”

”I was wrong from the beginning, I shouldn't have stuck to the Soul Absorbing Orb, we can't make mistakes again and again, if something were to happen to you, how would Mother bear with it?”

Shangguan Beiyi's face was ashen, the veins on his forehead throbbed faintly. He knew that Shangguan Linglong was the one who was being mischievous, and he understood the logic behind it, but he just could not convince himself to take this lying down. No matter how big of a mistake Shangguan Linglong committed, he would only take care of her.

”Big brother, don't you think you're a little too nice to my wife? Linglong is in such trouble and she still favors her at all times. Big brother, what's wrong with you?” ”You shouldn't have …”

Shangguan Nanyi's attitude towards him from the start till the end had still yet to clear up. Shangguan Beiyi also didn't know what sort of charm it was, but it had actually caused him to change his attitude in just a few days. Not only did he not take any Soul Absorbing Orb, he even protected Feng Qingying from end.

”Don't make any wild guesses. We've been learning the Dao of Kong and Meng since we were children. We can't do something as ungrateful as this. Let's end it here.”

Shangguan Beiyi and Shangguan Nanyi's relationship had always been good, but this time, he was extremely angered by Shangguan Nanyi, and coldly replied, ”Since Big Brother doesn't like Linglong, then there's no need for Big Brother to accompany me here, I'll accompany Linglong.”

”I'll go find my mother. You accompany Linglong well.” With that, Shangguan Nanyi turned and left the room.

After leaving the room, he raised his head to look at the dark sky, as if he saw Shangguan Linglong questioning him. His heart ached, and he stood there for a long time before leaving.

Feng Qingying took a bath, changed his clothes, and came back to report, ”Royal Concubine, Dong Mei is still kneeling outside, would you like to see Princess Huo Wu?”

”Where is the prince?”

”The prince was invited away by the marquis.”

”Oh.”

Feng Qingying replied as he picked up a book and started reading.

Shuangwei walked to the window and looked, then replied, ”It's dark outside, I'm afraid it's going to rain heavily.”
