n, which was as white and tender as a peeled egg.He took advantage of Fang Jinshu's unconscious state, touching her without restraint. No one knew better than him how good she felt.Li Lie looked at he...With Zongyu's amnesia cured, Jinxiu Mountain Villa is filled with joy.

The whole family gathered in Fang Jinshu's courtyard. Mu Shi pulled her son, looking him up and down with surprise.

"Are you really alright"

"Ah Yu, do you still remember when you were little and beat Xiao Hu so badly he couldn't get out of bed How many times did your grandpa whip you"

Zong Yu, his face dark with a vein throbbing on his forehead, nodded in response. He seemed utterly taken aback by his mother's question.

But he still answered truthfully.

"Remember, forty-five lashes, the skin torn and bloody, I lay in bed for more than half a month."

Although Zong Hu was beaten, he was also quite surprised to see his cousin beaten bloody. From then on, he avoided any further conflict with Zong Yu.

Even if there were any friction, he didn't go to Zong Lao again.

These are all old stories, Mu happily wiped away tears.

"Yes, you really remembered it all, that's wonderful, just wonderful!"

"Oh my, brother recovered his memory and sister-in-law is fine too, this is such a joyous occasion, why are you crying"

Jade Lotus quickly took out a handkerchief to help Mother Mu wipe away her tears.

"Mother is happy, no need to cry, no need to cry. Mother will go to the kitchen and prepare a delicious feast for us to celebrate Ah Yu and Jinxiu's safe return."

Fang Jinshi did not spoil her mother-in-law's interest, she only instructed Xiaoyue and Qiujing to follow and help.

Jade Lotus smiled and reassured her sister-in-law, saying that with her around, their mother wouldn't have to do any heavy lifting.

The Mus brought several women to the kitchen, happily preparing a grand feast. Zong Yu noticed that his daughter-in-law's expression was amiss, as if she had something to say. He pulled her down to sit beside him.

"Are you worried that Nian Fu's death will cause Yuan Xiang to retaliate"

Fang Jinshi shook her head. "It's not that I'm worried about this. Our family has long been on his blacklist, especially now that you have become an emperor's blade and stand opposite Yuan Xiang and the second prince."

"Only killing one butler is cheap for him."

Zong Yu's eyes held worry, Fang Jinxiu sighed, there was nothing left between them that they couldn't say.

"The sword strike to my chest, it wasn't off-target."

She lowered her eyes, not wanting Ah Yu to see the sadness in them.

"Xiao Green exhausted himself saving me."

Zongyu was a little surprised, "Xiao Lu is"

During the four years he was away, Fang Jinshu's space underwent a drastic transformation. Upon his return, the two were only focused on their quarrels. Fang Jinshu had no time to tell him anything else, and Zong Yu naturally didn't know about Xiao Lu's existence.

But Zong Bai, standing beside him, knew.

"Xiao Lu is a spirit nurtured in the space of Sister-in-law."

"Well, Little Green has dissipated."

Zong Bai widened his eyes, "Then, then will it be able to come back"

Since Xiao Lv is a spirit born in Sister-in-law's space, as long as the space exists, Xiao Lv will eventually be reborn.

"But ever since Xiaolu disappeared, I've noticed some changes in the space again."

The two brothers, Zongyu and his sibling, stared at her with curious expressions.

"Why don't I let you experience it firsthand"

She grasped her two brothers' hands. With a thought, the world around them shifted and blurred before they could even react. In an instant, they found themselves in a completely different realm.

Zong Bai's jaw dropped in astonishment, his finger pointing at the lush green world before him. The sense of wonder and disbelief within him was beyond words.

"This, this wouldn't be your sister-in-law's space inside, would it"

In contrast to Zong Bai's astonishment, although Zong Yu was also surprised, he appeared much more composed. At least from his outward appearance, one couldn't tell that he had any change in expression.

After a brief moment of surprise, Zong Yu narrowed his eyes and scrutinized the place.

He had wanted to come here countless times before.

Every time his wife vanished right in front of him, disappearing completely from sight, he felt a surge of panic. No matter how many times he witnessed this scene, the fear in his heart never subsided.

Now that he had finally stepped into this space, Zong Yu felt a sense of security. At least now, if Jinxiu disappeared again, he knew where she would be. It wasn't unknown anymore, a vague concept.

"Your space can now be shared with others."

Only Zongyu was the first to realize this.

Zong Bai only realized this after hearing his elder brother's words, "That's great, now people can enter sister-in-law's space. From now on, we won't have to worry about Yuan secretly harming us anymore."

If the space in Lady Wu Dinghou's residence a few days ago could have hidden people, she and her elder brother wouldn't have gone through such a dangerous assassination.

Fortunately, everything turned out fine in the end and both of them were safe and sound.

“Ever since I woke up, I've realized I can bring living things in and out of this space. Just now, I was just testing if I could bring a person in, and it seems like I can.”

She turned and looked at this world, meticulously tended by Xiao Lu, neat and tidy, bursting with greenery. Her eyes couldn't help but well up with sadness.

The little fellow who would shout for his master, circling him with enthusiasm, has disappeared. This world will no longer see that green, fluttering figure.

Zongyu knew his daughter-in-law was very sad right now, he gently held Fang Jinshiu's shoulder and brought her into his arms.

He was tongue-tied and didn't know what to say to comfort his daughter-in-law. The only thing he could do was stay by her side.

"From now on, I'll protect you."

Perhaps someday, it will return.

Fang Jinxiu understood what Zongyu meant. Xiaolu was born in this space, and Fang Jinxiu believed that as long as she took good care of it, the green figure would appear again someday.

Having a glimmer of hope in your heart is always better than having none.

Zongyu gazed at the surroundings and suddenly spoke.

"Doesn't this look a lot bigger than it did four years ago"

Fan Jinshui nodded. "Well, it's more than a hundred times larger."

"And as long as I keep storing things in it, the space will just keep slowly expanding."

"Indeed, it's a very good treasure."

"Perhaps it could be used for other purposes in the future."

Upon hearing this, Fang Jinshi curiously lifted her head from his arms and glanced at him.

"Huh"

Zongyu raised his hand and touched the top of her hair, chuckling softly, "It's nothing, some things are still uncertain."

Fang Jinxiu felt something was strange. Ah Yu's speech after waking up was a bit enigmatic.

She didn't press further, noticing that everyone had returned to her side. She had plenty of time to pry his mouth open later.

"Ayu, have you ever questioned your origins"

As the three people exited the room, Chang He happened to enter and report.

"Master, Second Master, Young Mistress, Lord Pan and Lord Gong have arrived."

Pan Zhi'an and Gong Yu

"Having heard that the master and mistress had been injured, the two honored guests came to visit."

Zong Yu was just granted the title of Marquis, but he kept requesting leave and hadn't appeared at court once. Pan Zhi'an felt something was amiss and decided to go see for himself to be reassured.

"Go get them in here."

Chang He nodded. "Yes."

The Wuding Hou Mansion was destroyed by assassins, and this matter has long reached the Emperor's ears. The Emperor was furious and sent people to thoroughly investigate what had happened.

This task, as if by some supernatural force, fell to Pan Zhi'an.

To outsiders, it seemed like a ghost was at work. Only Zong Bai and he himself knew that the Emperor had long suspected someone, out of all the ministers in court, more than six out of ten were loyal to the Second Prince or Yuan Xiang.

Others, either sit idly by and watch the flames or are timid and incompetent.

The emperor was also helpless. Aside from Pan Zhi'an, a young official who had just been promoted from the local government, there was no one else he could rely on. He had no other choice but to appoint him.atter where she went, the people she met and the experiences she had would inevitably change depending on her circumstances.She may not be this happy now."My lady, a carriage from the Jing Wang's mano...
