After Rebirth, She Becomes the Revenge Queen-Chapter 192 - 191 Miss, the General has come to kill!

Fu Zhen stared at him for a moment and sighed, "Forget it, you’re drunk. We’ll talk when you wake up tomorrow."

"I’m not drunk!"

Pei Zhan sat up straight and wiped his face with his hand.

Then, glancing at Fu Zhen, he called out into the room, "Shopkeeper! Two bowls of tofu pudding, please!"

After speaking, he took away the wine cup from Fu Zhen’s hand and moved all the jars, bottles, and cups on the table down to the ground.

When the tofu pudding arrived, he pushed a bowl towards Fu Zhen.

The thick layer of crushed walnuts on top indeed looked more enticing than the wine.

"I just drank a couple of cups because I was bored waiting. This amount of wine is nothing to me. I can handle several pounds at a meal, although I rarely drink."

Pei Zhan placed both hands on his knees and sat up straight: "Rest assured, I’m definitely not a drunkard and have never messed things up because of alcohol."

Fu Zhen nodded after he went through this whole series of actions. "That’s good."

Pei Zhan said, "Why, why are you so calm?"

After all, it’s a proposal, can’t you be a bit more excited?

Like him...

He lowered his head to look at himself, and as he lowered, he fell onto the table...

Fu Zhen looked at him lying motionless on the table and sighed, waving towards Guo Song in the distance.

...

When Xu Yin arrived at the manor, Lian Rong was still waiting in the room.

"Where has the master gone?"

Xu Yin handed him the bamboo flute, took off his robe, and said, "Fu Zhen is not Liang Ning." freewebnøvel.coɱ

Lian Rong was stunned: "You met her?"

Xu Yin walked to the desk and sat down, his eyes deep like an abyss.

Lian Rong followed, "Back then, you personally did it, such a big fire, she couldn’t have escaped. Besides, you personally saw her corpse, and the entire Liang Family confirmed it. She absolutely couldn’t have come back to life. Why would the master suspect that Fu Zhen might be her?"

"That’s what they say, but sometimes she really resembles. Even if everything you said is true, I have to verify it myself to be at ease." Xu Yin poured himself a cup of tea and drank it down.

The tea was cold, chilling his internal organs as well.

Lian Rong remained silent for a moment and said, "Then how did the master confirm it?"

Xu Yin looked deeply, "I played a tune outside her courtyard wall, and she came. Although I also know Liang Ning couldn’t possibly be alive, in that instant she appeared, I was briefly convinced it was her.

"But she was too calm, from start to finish she was very calm, her thoughts were also clear.

"Indeed, most of the time she is a very rational person, but after experiencing such pain and betrayal, I don’t believe she could remain so calm.

"She must hate me to the core, wishing she could tear me to shreds. How could she possibly respond to me so calmly and composedly? She has never been as cunning as I am.

"If it were her, upon seeing me, she would wish to stab me immediately. How could she allow me to get so close to her, remained indifferent to me holding a firebrand?"

Lian Rong said, "If one doesn’t act for oneself, heaven and earth will destroy. The master need not fret. Over the years, the scriptures for Miss Liang have been handwritten by you, never once missing a prayer for peace and transcending her soul, she should be at peace if she knew."

Xu Yin stayed silent for a while.

Then said, "Let it be, let’s drop the matter here. Since she’s not Liang Ning, then the reason for the dagger’s appearance needs to be re-evaluated.

"Whether Pei Zhan is an assassin, the suspicion has not been completely removed, but as long as Liang Ning didn’t give him the dagger, no one would know the true cause of Liang Ning’s death.

"If the assassin is indeed Pei Zhan, then they must have determined that Prince Rong and his father are the main culprits by now.

"In any case, this fire won’t burn us yet, preparing for the Crown Prince’s ceremony is more important. By the way, how are things going at the Prince Manor? Has the Prince decided to give the Deputy Commander’s position to Zhe Yu?"

"The Princely Heir and his wife arrived too late, this matter may be irreversible. Zhe Yu is most likely to secure the position."

Xu Yin meditated for a bit and said, "There are still a few days left, keep an eye out if there’s any chance left."

...

Pei Zhan’s capacity for alcohol might be true.

But judging by the empty jars on the ground, it was more than just two or three jin.

Of course, after Guo Song and the others helped Pei Zhan onto the carriage, Fu Zhen, who couldn’t drink anymore, ended up vomiting herself, rinsed her mouth with water from the innkeeper, and ate two bowls of tofu pudding on the table before heading back to the manor.

She used to be able to drink, up to two jin at a time, no problem.

Tonight she couldn’t resist, the mood was just right, it didn’t feel right not to raise a cup for the words spoken.

Unfortunately, she was still a bit late, Pei Zhan was too impatient, drank so much in such a short period, so now her proposal was in vain.

At the Pei’s side, Guo Song guarded outside until the sun was high when suddenly he heard Pei Zhan shout from inside the room!

He immediately pushed the door open and went in, seeing Pei Zhan standing barefoot on the floor, looking coldly at himself: "How did I end up here?!"

Guo Song was truly dumbfounded for a while: "You were so drunk, this is your room, if not here, where else could you be?"

Pei Zhan’s expression was indescribable, he stood like a pillar for a moment, then turned to open the wardrobe to find some clothes!

Fumbling and bustling, he asked Guo Song: "Did you see Miss Fu last night? From where did I come back? What did Miss Fu say before she left?"

He remembered Fu Zhen coming to the tofu shop last night, and they talked a lot, the crucial part being him remembering Fu Zhen proposing to him...

Was that real or not?!

He couldn’t even be sure!

He didn’t remember what happened afterwards!

Could it have all been a dream?

Pei Zhan regretted tremendously, thinking that in twenty years of living, he hadn’t once messed things up, and now at such a critical moment, he failed!

She went to meet Xu Yin last night following the sound of a flute, which doesn’t necessarily mean old sentiments linger, how could he become so quickly dejected and grab a few jars to drink?

If she truly still had lingering feelings, why would she still come to see him?

And if she had lingering feelings, she wouldn’t have waited until today to reveal them! When she accidentally entered Xu the thief’s room at Baihe Temple, she should have been moved then, shouldn’t she?

Seeing him so flustered, Guo Song gave the last answer: "Nothing was said, just asked me to see her safely back!

"General, what has happened?"

At the same time, he called for someone to bring water for Pei Zhan to wash up.

Pei Zhan quickly dressed and said, "Tell the master and mistress not to go out today, I have something to say when I return!"

He didn’t care about anything anymore!

Even if everything last night was his imagination, his dream, he would turn that dream into reality today!

After daybreak, Fu Zhen got up as usual, heard Li Jiang and Li Huai teaching Zhang Cheng their skills, and with nothing else to do, she slipped on her shoes and ran over to watch.

The Ning Family’s place is quite large now, setting aside a courtyard as a training ground isn’t an issue, and Fu Zhen also trains herself here daily with Cheng Chili.

She had just sat on the threshold for a moment when Bixi came rushing in panic: "Miss! For some reason, General Pei has stormed in with great force!"
