Chapter 81: Phoenix Rebirth, Broken and Reborn

raid of arousing suspicion, neither of them ate their meals properly, just hastily swallowing a few bites before coming out to the courtyard."Miss Qin, Brother Nai, why are you both moving so slowly"...The sky was overcast, not a ray of sunlight could be seen.

At the end of the deep and narrow alley, a luxurious carriage had stopped. A dozen guards stood beside it. If this were any other time, such a procession would have drawn out everyone living in the alley. They would surely be speculating about which prominent family the carriage belonged to and why they would come to such a secluded place.

However, on this Dragon Boat Festival day, most people in the city flocked to the riverbank. Even families from the alleys went along, so despite the presence of carriages and guards, no one came out to watch the festivities.

When Qin Luoyan was roughly held down on the bed by Fu Zimu, the courtyard was eerily silent, save for the occasional chirping of insects that served as a testament to the passage of time.

"This king underestimated you. To even be able to ally with the Left Minister Yin Qi." Fu Zimo's tone sounded very calm, but the cruelty in his eyes betrayed him, letting people know that he was truly angry.

Qin Luoyan knew that the more so in this patriarchal society, the more men cared about the loyalty of the women around them. Perhaps it had nothing to do with love, but simply a desire to possess things.

"Why are you silent Don't you dare to defend yourself" Fu Zi Mo saw that she didn't speak, leaned forward and ripped open her clothes, "What Didn't I satisfy you Making you still think of flirting with other men!"

What could she say If explaining was helpful, there wouldn't be so much violence. She knew that at this moment, anything she said would be useless. So why bother

She lay still, allowing Fu Zimu to roughly unbuckle her belt and bind her.

"Not yet" Fu Zimo's voice finally held a hint of anger.

Qin Luoyan stared straight at him, shaking her head. "The clear will clear themselves; there's nothing to say."

"Innocent until proven guilty!" Fu ZiMo bit down on her neck, bright red liquid immediately seeping from the wound. She clenched her brows in pain, but didn't beg for mercy.

In the courtyard, only Jinmu and Muhe stood in the farthest corner from that room. The two of them didn't say a word, like wooden fish in a trance, without thought or sound.

From within the house, came muffled sounds of anguish. They were not loud, yet they possessed a miraculous penetrating power that could effortlessly make those who heard them feel the pain as their own.

Finally, Maki somewhat couldn't bear it anymore and used both hands to cover his ears, then said to Kaneki: "Kaneki-leader, you should say something."

"No mood," Kaneki replied with three words, turning away and crossing his arms as he continued to stare blankly.

Mu He covered his ears, not daring to look at the house. After a while, he sighed again, lowered his hand, and then tugged on Jin Mu's arm. "Jin Mu Commander, you have spent the longest time with His Royal Highness. His Royal Highness... is he like this to every woman when he does this"

Kinmo didn't expect Mukawa to ask such a question, his mouth twitched, and he said: "You still don't know about your master's affairs."

"I just feel that Miss Qin is rather pitiful," Mu He lowered his head, remembering the woman who was always polite and courteous to everyone. Now she was actually letting out such painful whimpers, which made him feel quite distressed.

Jin Mu shook his head and patted Mu He's shoulder like a brother, "The master had been disappointed by all women twelve years ago, so…"

What happened twelve years ago Twelve years ago, Mu He was just a child and didn't remember much of importance. At that time, Fu Zi Mo was only about ten years old. How could a ten-year-old boy be disappointed with a woman

"Well, Your Highness isn't as heartless as you think," Jinmu sighed.

After saying that, no matter how much Mokuhe questioned him, Kaneki didn't say another word.

When Er Ya brought Yīngshēng and Hǔ'ér back, as soon as they reached the alley mouth, they saw dozens of guards standing at the courtyard gate. Hǔ'ér was a little scared and immediately ran towards his own home. As for Yīngshēng, the moment he saw these people, he was about to rush into the courtyard.

The guards at the gate naturally wouldn't allow Yingsheng to barge in like that, so soon a guard came over and subdued him.

Er Ya and Yi Sheng were kept outside the door for a full half hour before they saw the courtyard gate open. Fu Zi Mo, dressed neatly, walked out calmly.

He glanced at Yisheng and Erya beside him, his brows furrowed, but he said nothing and got into the carriage.

After Kinmoku and Bokka came out, the group of more than ten people set off to leave.

As soon as they left, Yisheng was the first to rush in. He ran straight to Qin Luoyan's room and pushed the door open without hesitation. However, less than a second after entering, he backed out again.

When Er Ya was about to rush in, he slammed the door shut, blocking Qin Luo Yan's way.

"How is the young lady doing" Er Ya also asked worriedly.

"It's fine! Go cook dinner," Yisheng shouted, gritting his teeth as he blocked the door.

Seeing his anger, Er Ya could only walk stiffly towards the kitchen. After taking two steps, she couldn't help but glance back, and it was this glance that made her see Yi Sheng kneeling on the ground, sobbing.

A pang of pain shot through her heart, and tears welled up in her eyes. Though she didn't know what was happening inside that house, the fact that Yìshēng, a strong-willed child, had stopped her and chosen to kneel and weep, must have been something terrible, something truly awful.

Er Ya wiped her tears and ran towards the kitchen. She remembered there was still a chicken in the kitchen, she wanted to kill the chicken and make soup for the mistress to nourish her body!

Yi Sheng knelt at the door of Qin Luo Yan's room and cried for a long time, but he didn't dare to make too much noise. He could only suppress his sobs silently until his eyes were swollen and blurred. Only then did he grit his teeth and stand up.

He stood at the door for a long while, then shouted to the people inside: "Sister! Wait for me to grow up! I will give you a good life!"

The innocent voice, coming from a six or seven-year-old child, couldn't be dismissed as mere childish talk.

He didn't know if the people in the room had heard, he only knew that on that night, Er Ya had cooked a table of dishes, but Qin Luo Yan hadn't come out to eat.

That night, Yixing couldn't sleep, and Er Ya also couldn't sleep. However, the two of them tacitly understood that neither would leave the room or disturb the world of others.

The next morning, just as dawn broke, Yi Sheng got up to practice his horse stances. He suddenly saw Qin Luo Yan sitting in the courtyard. Her face was pale, and her eyes were filled with only confusion. She just sat there listlessly in the courtyard, not even noticing when a bird landed on her shoulder.

Yi Sheng's heart ached. He walked over and gently cupped her face with his calloused hand. "Sister, you taught me never to give up hope. Now, don't give up either, okay"
