Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Han Yueting has increased his family’s power, status, and influence. The Hans wouldn’t have improved without him. Perhaps another family would have overtaken them among the six great families.”

Shen Mohen’s expression turned cold whenever he spoke about the Hans. He realized how capable Han Yueting could be.

Su Binglan was in deep thought as she looked at the information and listened to her cousin. Afterward, Shen Qiuhui told her about the capital’s current situation.

Su Binglan only went to bed when it was almost midnight. Still, she tossed and turned but could not fall asleep. She could not stop thinking about her childhood as Lan Ruobing.

However, she had only recovered a portion of her memories. She could not remember some parts of her past when she was in Su Teng Village. After coming to the capital and walking its streets, some blurry shadows would flash across her mind.

They seemed to be her memories when she was Lan Ruobing. Even so, they were vague images, and Su Binglan could not make out the details. When she began to feel like she was about to remember something, she fell asleep and dreamt about being Lan Ruobing again.

It was Lan Ruozhu!s birthday, and many relatives visited the Deceased Royal’s Mansion. It was also the day the Hans sent someone to break off Lan Ruobing and Han Luetings engagement.

Although the two did not have much contact, Han Luetings actions brought shame to the Deceased Royal’s Mansion. Lan Ruozhu grew so worried about his sister that he vomited blood and fainted. It was also due to the poison in his body.

He would not care about his health, but he would not allow others to humiliate his sister. The Hans could have chosen another day to cancel the engagement. Instead, they chose to embarrass those of the Deceased Royal’s Mansion.

The family did not care if Lan Ruozhu and Lan Ruobing retaliated. During that time, the siblings’ parents had already passed away, entrusting the mansion to their son and daughter.

Since Lan Ruozhu was sick, his sister wanted to give him a proper birthday party to cheer him up. However, Lan Ruobing blamed herself for her brother vomiting blood and fainting.

When she went to the Hans’ palace to demand an explanation, the family would not allow her to enter. That day, she stood outside the palace. Although Lan Ruozhu said that he would seek revenge for his sister, she did not want him to trouble himself.

After all, his priority was to protect the Deceased Royal’s Mansion. Because of the Hans’ attitude, many of the dukes and nobles dared not have anything to do with the Deceased Royal’s Mansion.

When Wei Jin’an returned and heard the news, he took the initiative to visit the Deceased Royal’s Mansion to propose to Lan Ruobing to protect her reputation. He wanted everyone to know how highly respected Princess Lan Ruobing was.

At that time, the Hans were no match for the Wei family’s background and reputation. Wei Jin’an’s actions preserved the Deceased Royal’s Mansion. Once again, dukes and nobles began interacting with those of the Deceased Royal’s Mansion.

Since the emperor feared the Wei family’s military power, he dared not touch the Deceased Royal’s Mansion. Moreover, Lan Riobing would have time to make arrangements to solidify the mansion’s defenses.

Although she was weak at that time, she still dragged herself to prepare many things, including Blue Mountain Academy’s establishment.

Since Lan Ruobings mother was from the Ice clan, the former inherited some of the clan’s abilities. That was why Lan Ruobing and Su Binglan could sometimes have visions in the form of dreams. Therefore, Lan Ruobing planted spies around certain people.

When she knew that something would happen to the Wei family, she arranged for people to protect them before she died.

Su Binglan felt groggy when she woke up from her dream. Although the sky was still dark, the memories she had regained were crystal clear. She would never forget them again.

As she thought about it, she smirked sinisterly and muttered, “Indeed, it’s time for revenge.”

After breakfast, Su Binglan brought Su Chun out somewhere. The latter grew curious about the place and asked, “Master, are we having tea here?”

Su Binglan replied, “This is the Ice Tea House, a place that specializes in buying and selling information.

In the past, no one, including Su Binglan, did not know about the Ice Tea House. Bing Suwan had established and left behind the tea house for her daughter, but she also sealed a portion of Lan Ruobings memories.

Since Su Binglan had regained some of Lan Ruobings memories, she was able to rediscover the Ice Tea House. It was still early in the morning, and there were not many people there.

The shopkeeper was counting on an abacus at the front counter when a waiter approached Su Binglan and asked, “Would you like some tea or stay in the hotel?”

Su Binglan answered indifferently, “I’ll have an Ice Moon Tea.”

It was a tea Bing Suwan made, but only a few knew about it. The shopkeeper was not as spirited just now, but he stood up abruptly when he heard it. “Dear guests, please follow me upstairs.”

Although he was excited, he restrained his emotions and asked, “Miss, how do you know about the Ice Moon Tea?”

“My mother used to make it.” Su Binglan revealed a jade token that looked like the Ice Moon Tea symbol. She did not know how or why the token appeared in her pocket dimension. However, she knew her mother had left it for her.

The shopkeeper hurriedly knelt, saying, “It is my honor to meet you finally, Master.”

“Stand. I’m here for some information,” Su Binglan said.

“Whose information do you need, Master? I have everything.”

“l want details on Si Qi.”

“Please wait a moment, Master. I shall get the dossier now.” The shopkeeper went inside and collected Si Qi’s file.

Su Binglan’s eyes appeared solemn as she looked through the information. “The Royal Forest Guard!”

She did not expect the person who had fallen from grace back then to become a member of the Royal Forest Guard so quickly.

That night, Si Qi returned home after his patrolling in the middle of the night. However, he felt something was amiss when he opened the door. Before he could do anything, a sword appeared at his neck, causing him to pale.

He was an expert among the royal guards, yet someone was able to place a sword against his neck instantly.

‘Who is this person? Why are they so skilled?!’

“Don’t move, or your head will roll,” a woman’s voice sounded.

“Wh-what are you doing?” Si Qi wearily asked when he saw the two women before him.

Su Binglan smirked. “Do you still remember the mission Princess Ruobing gave you four years ago?”

Si Qi was shocked when he heard the princess’s name..
