The feeling under her palm was firm, full, and hot.Fang Jinshu's face was flushed red, and her hands and feet worked together as she climbed down from someone's body.She knew Zongyu was holding her th...Zong Pingchuan was first shocked, and then after confirming that the person before him was indeed his elder brother Zong Pingkang, he began to have a belly full of questions.

"Big brother, how did you come to the capital And why are you appearing at Jing Wang's mansion"

After calming down, Zong Pingchuan slowly pieced together some things. His older brother's appearance here was definitely not a coincidence, and it couldn't be that he had found his way to the capital on his own.

Could it be that the Mu family brought everyone with them

No, it shouldn't be brought by Mu. If she had brought it, he would have seen his elder brother at Jinxiu Mountain Villa earlier. Why wait until now

Suddenly, Zong Pingchuan's pupils constricted as if he had just thought of something.

"Was it my father-in-law who brought you here"

Zongpingkang accidentally killed his wife, Liu Shi, and was sent to the prison in Luoshui by Fang Jinshu and Zongyu. He was originally going to be imprisoned for ten years before being released. During that time, he humbled himself and endured hardship, doing odd jobs for other prisoners in jail.

Even the prisoners in the big jail had their own survival chain. Zong Ping Kang relied on completely abandoning his human dignity to be a dog for everyone. Being beaten and scolded was commonplace.

In short, this stint in prison was a trial by fire for him, turning his personality upside down.

Formerly, Zongping was lazy and cunning, always scheming but never succeeding. He was more likely to cause trouble than anything else, but not truly evil at heart.

Now, just the look in his eyes when he stares at someone is full of cunning and ruthlessness. Zong Pingchuan just now didn't dare to confirm that the person before him was his older brother because of this gaze.

Zong Ping sneered, "Father-in-law, you sound so affectionate."

"Second brother, now that you've become the son-in-law of the current prime minister, why don't you come back and bring us all to the capital"

"Do you think our family has embarrassed you so much that you consider us all dead"

Zongping immediately denied it.

He didn't know what his father-in-law's purpose was in bringing his elder brother to the capital. He didn't have the guts to mess with Yuan Buyu's affairs either. Before figuring things out, he could only try his best to be polite and accommodating to Zong Pingkang, not daring to anger him.

"Big brother, since you were sent to the capital by my father-in-law, you should know about my situation."

"Let's talk about other things when we get back. First, tell me, how did you end up here Did your father-in-law bring you What does he want you to do"

Zongping, seeing his anxiety, scoffed with a disdainful look.

"So what I'm now under the command of the Prime Minister. Zong Pingchuan, all these hardships I suffered because of you over the years, I will get them back from you sooner or later."

"Right now, I haven't got time to waste words with you. Just remember, don't mess with me!"

After finishing his words, he shoved Zong Pingchuan away and walked in the other direction toward the prince's mansion.

Zong Pingchuan thought about it, and still chose to return to the banquet.

King Jing had had a bit too much to drink, his head was feeling a little fuzzy. The rest of the evening was spent watching dancing and music performances, with guests chatting freely. The female guests who attended the banquet today put on their best acts in front of Fu Shangyuan.

But all their efforts were in vain. Prince Jing remained as indifferent to them as ever, showing no interest in any of the young maidens.

Zong Qianyue was no exception. She went up to toast and ended up with a nose full of ashes, she didn't receive any special treatment from King Jing because of her identity as the granddaughter of the prime minister’s family.

Many young women, seeing that Zong Qianyue had received the coldness from King Jing, finally felt a sense of balance in their hearts.

King Jing still looked down on any woman equally, today that widow is gone, she clearly came to the young master's birthday banquet but didn't have any interaction with King Jing.

Many people have started saying that Prince Jing has lost interest in her and begun to ignore her.

zong qian yue returned to yuan shi's side.

"Mother, Prince Jing didn't even look at me. Are you sure what Grandfather said was true"

Yuan patted her daughter's back to comfort her, and whispered softly in her ear.

"If you don't trust others, do you not trust what your grandfather says"

"When did your grandfather deceive you, saying that if he made you the Princess Consort of Jing, it would certainly come true"

Zong Qianyue glanced at the handsome King Jing seated on the throne, but she was still unsatisfied. "But he didn't even look at me once, how could he possibly marry me."

"Mother, I would never allow Grandfather to pressure the Prince into marrying me!"

"I want him to fall in love with me, willingly marry me and make me his queen, just like you and father, so deeply in love."

That's what a couple is.

Yuan shi was stunned, she didn't expect her daughter still harbored such feelings for King Jing.

She remembered that she had also used some means to keep Zong Pingchuan back then. Even after marriage, life wasn't necessarily getting better and better. Relationships can be cultivated.

She turned her head to look at her father, a decision forming silently in her heart.y. He made a few subtle markings as he traveled.It was a habit he had developed while hunting in the mountains to prevent getting lost.This shape, she had seen before in embroidered fabrics. When she...
