At this time, Shaofu, Kyoto.

"Huh-huh-"

The wind howled, the big trees swayed in the wind, and the branches whipped in the air like wildly dancing whips.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning pierced the dark night sky, followed immediately by a thunder that shook the earth. In an instant, heavy snow fell down, intertwining the space into a continuous snow. It was as if the people passing by were hidden in the snow, and there were only a few pedestrians.

Falling snow, thunder, and rare bad weather are ominous omens.

Shao Wanyun was already in a mess in the bedroom. As he was pacing back and forth, his eyes were like a pool of clear water, flashing with fear and uneasiness. As he looked around, his usual elegant and noble temperament also disappeared.

A lot.

The moment the door was pushed open and the personal maid ran in, Shao Wanyun placed all her hopes on her. Before the maid could speak, she rushed forward and asked anxiously: "How is it? Can you find out about your father?"

Where are you?"

The maid's face looked even more frightened than Shao Wanyun's at this moment, and even her tone was trembling: "Miss, the master has been forced into prison."

!!

A few short words, like a thunderbolt, passed through Shao Wanyun's head. Her beauty lost all safety, and she turned to panic: "What did you say? Didn't it mean that some ministers in the court had gone to the imperial study to plead with Your Majesty?

?”

The maid shook her head in despair: "The courtiers have indeed entered the palace, but compared to the hundreds of officials who gathered to impeach the master, the few ministers who helped the master to plead for mercy could not stop him. Miss, I am afraid this time... I am afraid..."

The maid did not dare to say the rest of her reply.

Immediately, Shao Wanyun's soul was dead. She couldn't help but trembled in despair, her eyes turned black and she was about to fall down due to dizziness. Fortunately, the maid was quick to catch her and said worriedly: "Miss, are you okay?"

Shao Wanyun shook his head and sat down holding on to the table at hand. His mind was groggy and he had no idea.

What exactly happened, we have to start from a few days ago.

On the day Jiang Zuiyao left Shao Mansion, it was still early, and while Shao Jiang was having breakfast, officers and soldiers from Fengtian Mansion forcibly broke into the Shao Family Mansion and took Shao Jiang away.

The reason is that Shaojiang secretly colluded with officials from the outer city to evade taxes amounting to millions of taels of silver, and the person who reported this was the prime minister who was more powerful than one person in the court!

If this crime is established, not only will the Shao family's home be ransacked, but Shaojiang will also be sentenced for the crime. Then the Shao family will be doomed!

Shao Wanyun couldn't think of anything else at the moment. She bit her lips tightly and asked worriedly: "What should I do? What should I do?"

The maid was anxious and anxious, and said: "Miss, you should think about how to save the master now."

Shao Wanyun's nose felt sore and she wanted to cry, but she held on.

"What can I do? What should I do?" Shao Wanyun was completely panicked.

Shao Wanyun's heart suddenly tightened. She must not let this happen. She tightened her fists and said: "Prepare the carriage, I want to go to the Regent's Palace."

The maid was instantly startled: "Miss, you can't do anything stupid at this time!"

"Otherwise? Is there any other way?" Shao Wanyun looked at the maid desperately.

The maid said: "Aren't there still madam and third young master? They will find a way."

Shao Wanyun was completely anxious: "If there was a way, how could it be delayed until today? Third brother said that the person who wanted to harm my father was the prime minister. Only the regent in the civil and military affairs of the entire dynasty could compete with the prime minister!"

The maid's eyes softened, her lips trembled, and she replied: "I'll go and ask someone to prepare the car right now."

As soon as the maid left, the tears that Shao Wanyun had been holding back fell instantly. The Shao family has asked for help from everyone they can ask for. Now they are rich and powerful, but they are no match for the prime minister who holds the power.

But at this time, Shao Ziqing was not here. There was only his mother, who was usually the housekeeper, and Shao Zimo, who had not yet set foot in the court. No one could count on him.

There was a heavy snowstorm outside, and Shao Wanyun rushed the coachman countless times without thinking. Even though the carriage was already running very fast, she was still impatient.

When they arrived at the Regent's Mansion, Huo Yuchu, the Regent's only legitimate son, chose to meet her.

There was a blizzard outside, but it was warm inside the hall. The corners of Shao Wanyun's skirt were wet from the blizzard, leaving a line of water stains from the hall door to in front of him.

When Huo Yu first saw her, there was no emotion on his face. He had already guessed Shao Wanyun's purpose, but he still asked knowingly: "It's so late, why did you come to see me?"

Under her wide sleeves, Shao Wanyun's slender jade fingers had been clenched into a powerful fist. She glared at Huo Yuchu's face, with countless reluctance, but she was helpless and begged: "Please, save my father."

.”

Such a reply was not what Huo Yuchu expected at all. He stood up from his chair and walked to Shao Wanyun, his eyes a little fiery: "How do you know I can save your father?"

Shao Wanyun took a cold breath: "The only person in the court who can compete with the Prime Minister is your father, the Regent."

Huo Yuchu narrowed his eyes slightly, but at the age of twenty-three, he was so sophisticated and ruthless that he should not be at this age. His eyes were like stars, his eyebrows were as thick as lacquer, his body was majestic, and his appearance was majestic.

His voice turned cold instantly: "If it weren't for your father's affairs, you would probably never pay attention to me in this life, right?"

Shao Wanyun sneered: "Don't you like me? If you can save my father, I will marry you."

Huo Yu took the first step and said with firmness in his tone: "So, the marriage between you and me is just a deal to you?"

Shao Wanyun said expressionlessly: "I'm just an insignificant lady from a noble family, what can I do?"

Huo Yuchu frowned slightly and tried his best to explain: "Shao Wanyun, you don't understand the affairs of the court. Your father——"

"Stop talking!" Shao Wanyun didn't want to hear any more words from the regent. Before he could finish speaking, Shao Wanyun interrupted with a roar.

Shao Wanyun looked at him with blazing eyes and said decisively, "Just say whether you agree or disagree. I don't want to hear the rest."

Huo Yuchu was speechless, looking at her with ardent eyes, and said in despair: "Is it true that I, the legitimate son of the Regent, can't compare to an actor?"

Shao Wanyun completely collapsed and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Do you dare to say that you have no selfish motives in approaching me?"

"I didn't!" Huo Yuchu said firmly.

Shao Wanyun didn't believe it: "Oh, is it true? Didn't the regent always want to get help from my father's financial power?"

Huo Yuchu frowned: "In your eyes, is my feeling for you so unbearable? Is my sincerity so worthless in your eyes?"

Shao Wanyun glanced coldly: "Sincerely? Haha, although I didn't like you at first, I believed in your sincerity, but how do you explain everything that happened later? Huo Yuchu, are you still unwilling to admit it? It doesn't matter if you admit it, I
