Chapter 1056 Tiredness
A round of purge began within the Yuan family.

Yuan Zizhen and Gu Jinchen were very powerful. After placing Yuan Ye under house arrest, they immediately took action against the remaining three Cave Heaven Realm priests.

The method is simple. First, send a message to one of them, A, fabricate evidence, saying that it was found that B was suspected of betrayal, and ask him to capture B. A sneaks to B's place, fights with B and controls him, then C arrives... Of course, the news that C gets is that A is suspected of betrayal.

As a result, the three priests became suspicious of each other and fought each other until all three were injured. Then Yuan Zizhen appeared with the sword of benevolence and easily defeated them.

Of course, for him now, the Sword of Benevolence was "temporarily given to him by Fu Qingzhou".

After the most powerful priests of the Yuan family were killed, there was no need to worry about the remaining people.

The same method can also be used on the guards of the Yuan family. The guards of various factions and branches were suspicious of each other because of the fabricated evidence by Yuan Zizhen and Gu Jinchen. They all thought that they had the secret order of the clan to eliminate the rebels, and they killed each other in different corners...

Most of these people are not direct descendants of the Yuan family, but they are the ones who do the dirty work of the family. They are by no means innocent. Yuan Zizheng does not feel sorry for them at all. To show his sincerity, he chooses to eliminate the armed forces in these families without hesitation.

As for Fu Qingzhou...

He just felt tired.

He threw the report sent by Gu Jinchen into the stove without even reading it.

It was already night. Fu Qingzhou sat alone in the courtyard, listening to the sounds of fighting coming from afar, and took a sip of wine with some fatigue.

"Master Fu, you clearly decided the situation of the Yuan family, why are you sighing here?"

Suddenly, a clear female voice was heard outside the yard.

Fu Qingzhou didn't turn his head to look. He noticed the other party approaching from a distance, but he didn't expect that it was coming towards him.

The door to the courtyard was not closed, and soon, two figures appeared at the door.

Fu Qingzhou looked up, but saw two unfamiliar faces.

However, he could guess the other party's identity.

"Is she sister-in-law?"

Fu Qingzhou smiled and said, "I have heard of your great name for a long time. You and Brother Yue look like a couple. You are truly a perfect match."

The woman standing at the gate of the courtyard was slender and graceful, wearing an emerald green silk skirt. Although her facial features were not exquisitely beautiful, they were quite dignified and elegant. However, there was an indescribable stubbornness flashing in her eyes, which was indeed somewhat similar to Yue Heng's temperament.

She is Yue Heng’s current wife, Lin Chuchu.

"After all, I am a married woman. I am visiting you late at night and I brought a maid with me to avoid suspicion. Master Fu, you won't mind, right?"

Lin Chuchu smiled.

The maid following behind her secretly glanced at Fu Qingzhou with eyes full of admiration, yet also a hint of fear.

"Why would you mind? Of course not."

Fu Qingzhou smiled and said, "Are you able to move freely now?"

"Thanks to Master Fu, I am now free."

Lin Chuchu said softly, came to the table and sat down, and even touched a wine glass and poured wine: "Gu Jinchen came to release me personally. He said you didn't arrange it, but you don't need to arrange this kind of thing."

"This man has always been so sensible, so I want him to die more and more."

Fu Qingzhou said this without stopping Lin Chuchu from pouring the wine.

In some places with conservative customs, a married woman who drinks with other men late at night is considered to be punished by being thrown into a pig cage.

But Lin Chuchu was not an ordinary woman. Not to mention that her acquaintance and love with Yue Heng had a strong sense of the underworld. Just when Yue Heng was nearly killed by his father-in-law, the "Nebula Chamber of Commerce Gambling" method Lin Chuchu proposed was not something an ordinary rich girl could play.

Although she was placed under house arrest by the Yuan family and taken away from the capital, in Fu Qingzhou's heart, Lin Chuchu was never a delicate, pitiful and weak woman. She always had the sentiments of a woman of the rivers and lakes.

"Master Fu, you are somewhat different from... the young master Fu that my husband mentioned."

Lin Chuchu suddenly said: "You, as described by my husband, are quick to repay kindness and have a clear distinction between love and hate... If you hate Gu Jinchen so much, why do you still keep him?"

"Didn't you just ask me why I sighed?" Fu Qingzhou picked up the wine glass and said with a smile, "That's why - I am no longer a lone knight, but have been forced to become 'Master Fu'. There are some things that I have to consider the pros and cons of. If I just wanted to kill Gu Jinchen directly, then it would not be so easy to deal with the Yuan family today, and you... might not be able to sit here and drink with me."

Lin Chuchu also smiled.

She also picked up the wine glass, pushed it over, and gently touched the glass in Fu Qingzhou's hand.

Then, the two of them drank the wine in the glass together.

"It turned out to be because of this."

Lin Chuchu covered the lower half of her face with her sleeves, gently wiped the wine from the corners of her lips, and said with a smile: "Young Master Fu has become Lord Fu. He has lost his chivalrous spirit and has become more official, so he feels uncomfortable."

"is a bit."

Fu Qingzhou shrugged: "I know this is the best option, but it's meaningless."

"Of course it is."

Lin Chuchu curled her lips and said, "To do something knowing it's impossible is what a hero does."

Fu Qingzhou suddenly had an idea, and thought of something: "Sister-in-law, you don't seem to feel bad about being imprisoned here, and you don't seem to be very sad about the decline of the Yuan family... Brother Yue chose not to stay dormant under Yuan Ye and resolutely stand on the side of the royalists. Wasn't it you who instigated it?"

"Can this be called instigation?"

Lin Chuchu blinked: "You didn't see how miserable he was at that time... He was like a walking corpse every day. I don't want my husband to live like that. In this case, it's better to let him be happy and carefree."

Fu Qingzhou was slightly surprised.

He had always thought that Yue Heng's decision to stop being an undercover agent was entirely his own, but he didn't expect that Lin Chuchu was also adding fuel to the fire.

"You...are also from the Yuan family."

Fu Qingzhou said softly: "Could it be that you have no feelings for the Yuan family at all?"

"Master Fu, you are not from a noble family, so you won't understand."

Lin Chuchu chuckled and said, "My father is a half-son-in-law, but my last name is not Yuan... As the prefect, he always has to bow and scrape to people whenever he comes to the Yuan family. In order to realize his ambitions and ideals, he even has to flatter some dandy children in their teens just to get the support of their parents. Master Fu, do you know what I would think when I grew up watching these people?"

Fu Qingzhou seemed to understand something.

He took the initiative to fill their glasses with wine: "But more importantly, right or wrong, right?"

"Right or wrong."

Lin Chuchu responded seriously: "Master Fu, what do you think is right and wrong?"

Fu Qingzhou thought about it.

"First of all, I am a good person with normal cognition and behavior. There should be no doubt about this."

After a long while, he slowly said: "So, what I think is right is right, and what I think is wrong is wrong."

"Master Fu, no wonder you and your husband can become good brothers."

Lin Chuchu smiled and said, "Since it is the right thing to do, it is of course the best choice, and it shouldn't make you sigh or feel tired, right?"

Fu Qingzhou smiled helplessly: "But I have already promised them, a gentleman's promise is worth a thousand gold."

"Of course."

Lin Chuchu put away her smile and said seriously, "But Lord Fu is only one person after all, not the entire court. If you try your best and still can't do something, then we can't blame you...right?"

Fu Qingzhou burst into laughter, and the two of them clinked glasses and drank again.

"I didn't expect that my sister-in-law would teach me a lesson today."

He smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is really a wonderful woman! It is a blessing for Brother Yue to marry you!"
