Chen Yuan said a few words to the official and then walked to Chen Feng's side.
Chen Feng asked: "Second brother, how is the matter handled?"
Chen Feng's eyes swept over the man who was still crying not far away, and his brows wrinkled involuntarily.
The man who suddenly rushed out was really energetic and his cries were full of energy.
"My poor dad! He was already old enough to enjoy his old age, but for some reason he was threatened by the Second Young Madam of the Hou Mansion and went to the Hou Mansion to pretend to be a great doctor! Later, when the matter was revealed, the Second Young Madam wanted to silence me!
My father was tortured to death by the Second Young Madam! Officials, you must give my father justice!"
The man was crying and slapping his thighs. His hard crying attracted a lot of spectators.
He had already made up his mind before coming here that he would make the matter bigger and force the people in the Hou Mansion to come up with money.
He knew that if he made such a fuss, he would not be able to survive in the capital.
He took the money, changed his appearance, and went to live happily elsewhere.
Chen Yuan had a headache because he was asked to sort out the mess caused by Qian.
Moreover, this matter has been brought to the government. If he does not handle it well, it will bring shame to the Hou family. The Hou will definitely settle the score when he comes back.
Chen Yuan cursed Mr. Qian in his heart and continued to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief.
He wiped the veil so hard that water squeezed out.
Chen Yuandao: "I'm afraid it will be a while, your family is waiting for you, why don't you go back first."
"No, I'll wait for my second brother to recover, and we'll go back together." Chen Feng said calmly.
Chen Yuan nodded and continued to talk to the official.
Chen Feng leaned against the tree trunk and thought about Chen Yuan's words.
Everyone in the family is waiting for him, so is Fu Zhao also waiting for him?
Although the two are husband and wife, Chen Feng understands that their relationship is still as distant as strangers.
If Fu Zhao is also waiting for him, then the relationship between the two of them may be able to take a further step.
Chen Feng thought for a while, and suddenly the sound of horse hooves came from the distance again.
He was the first to discover his keen hearing.
He looked into the distance and saw another group of people running from the direction of the capital.
The two leaders were Chen Xin, the third young master of Chen, and Chen Wen, the fourth young master of Chen. When they saw that Chen Yuan and Chen Feng had not come back for a long time, and Mrs. Chen came to send a message, they went out of the city to have a look.
Chen Xin got off the carriage and first saw Chen Yuan talking to several officials, and there was a man beside him who was crying and screaming.
Chen Xin walked over and said in a bad tone, "Second brother, are you being targeted by scoundrels?"
The man who was crying was worried, what does it mean to be a rogue? His father was really killed by the second young lady of the Hou Mansion!
He wanted to argue with Chen Xin, but when he saw the servants of the Hou Mansion looking at him behind Chen Xin, he stepped back and quietly moved to the official side.
Chen Wen walked up to Chen Feng and said kindly: "Fifth brother, did you have a smooth journey?"
"It went well. Why did fourth brother come here?" Chen Feng asked.
"My mother sent us here. Our family is very worried."
Seeing this, Chen Feng said: "Then I'll go and tell my second brother, and I'll go back with you first."
"That's fine."
Chen Feng went to talk to Chen Yuan, and Chen Xin stayed with Chen Yuan. Chen Feng and Chen Wen went back to the Hou Mansion first.
Chen Feng had just mounted the horse, and the horse had barely run a few steps when Chen Yuan suddenly shouted, "Wait a minute, you go back and take them back with you."
Chen Yuan pointed to the carriage parked on the roadside.
Chen Feng only told Wei Shan to go to the carriage, and he and Chen Wen went back to the Hou Mansion first.
*
The lunch prepared in the kitchen was reheated before the servant came to report that Chen Feng was back.
Fu Zhao couldn't hide his joy, Chen Feng was finally back.
The people in the house had been waiting all morning and were already tired, tired, and hungry.
Upon hearing Chen Feng's return, Chen Yaying stood up first and stretched, "Fifth brother is finally back. Mother, let them prepare the meal."
Mrs. Chen smiled and said: "Just remember to eat."
Chen Yaying stuck out her tongue, "It's not just me who is hungry, Brother Five must be hungry too."
Fu Zhao was overjoyed, but out of the corner of his eye he noticed that the servant who came to deliver the message was hesitant to speak, as if he still had something to say.
Fu Zhao then asked: "Do you have anything else to do?"
The servant was overjoyed that someone finally noticed him. Mrs. Chen only focused on talking to Chen Yaying, and she couldn't get a word in at all.
The servant then said: "One more thing, the prince did not come back alone, he also brought back a girl."
As soon as these words came out, the room suddenly became quiet again.
Fu Zhao's smile froze on his face.
Since she couldn't laugh, she simply stopped laughing.
She asked in a deep voice: "Oh? Do you know where that girl came from?"
The servant shook his head, "Younger ones don't even know."
Many people in the room were probably convinced that the unidentified woman brought back by Chen Feng could be other than a sweetheart.
The corners of He's mouth turned up, and he said gloatingly: "Fifth brother and sister, there may be some misunderstanding in this, you have to listen to fifth brother's explanation."
Seeing Fu Zhao's ugly face, He became even more happy.
Mrs. Chen said: "Okay, okay, it's normal for a man to have a confidante. Come on, please invite the prince to come in and talk."
Su Yurong quietly shook Fu Zhao's hand and comforted her softly while others were not paying attention, "My cousin is not that kind of person."
Fu Zhao twitched his lips, "I know."
But her answer clearly didn't sound like she knew.
Several days ago, she began to look forward to Chen Feng's return.
Chen Feng was back, but he didn't expect to bring a woman back with him. How could she be happy?
Fu Zhao closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there was a gentle smile on his lips, but there was a bit of alienation and indifference in the smile.
After a while, Chen Feng and Chen Wen came in.
Chen Feng took the lead and saluted Mrs. Chen, "My son is coming back late, which makes my mother worried."
Mrs. Chen smiled happily and said: "It will be good to come back, it will be good to come back."
Chen Feng started greeting Ma again, "Sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, third sister-in-law..."
His eyes stayed on Fu Zhao. Fu Zhao tilted his head slightly, revealing his white and tender earlobes and a pair of red agate earrings.
The bright red color made Fu Zhao's skin look even more frosty and fair, making her fair and attractive.
Chen Feng suddenly remembered that Fu Zhao rarely dressed like this, and his eyes couldn't help but become gentle.
But after watching for a while, Fu Zhao didn't turn his head, so he had to continue greeting several sisters.
Chen Yaying had the most lively temperament. She couldn't wait to ask: "Fifth brother, who is the woman you brought back?"
Chen Feng was stunned, woman? What woman?
But his momentary hesitation was seen by others as hesitating on how to introduce the woman's identity.
