Scent of Time (2023) Episode 26

Nov 2, 2023

Seeing her father being taken away, Hua Qian felt extremely sad. The eldest princess's heart clenched into a ball, and she quickly spoke out to end the commotion. But Hua Qian took a deep breath, and then seemed to have made up his mind. He turned around and said solemnly that what his father just said was out of love for his son. What he did today was against human ethics and he did not want to do it. Wrong again and again, I just hope that my family will not be affected.

Zhong Xiwu tried her best to protect Hua Qian, but she was determined to take the blame for her father. Seeing that the situation was getting more and more out of control, the eldest princess hurriedly ordered that the irrelevant personnel should leave first. Zhong Yelan wanted to step forward and say something, but was stopped by Mu Yao. If others talk about the current situation, they may add fuel to the fire. Zhong Yelan had no choice but to leave with Mu Yao first.

Zhong Xiwu squatted in front of Hua Qian, hoping that she would understand his good intentions. But Hua Qian didn't want to look at him, and kept her head lowered proudly. When the eldest princess passed by, she sighed slightly, and then left helplessly. Zhong Xiwu wanted to help Hua Qian up, but she pushed him away. Zhong Xiwu didn't understand why she always didn't appreciate the fact that he had deliberately paved the way for Hua Qian and tried so hard to remove her from the Hua family.

Hearing this, Hua Qian couldn't help but sneer. It turned out that Zhong Xiwu proposed to plead guilty at the banquet just for today's result. But as a child, how could she personally send her father to prison in exchange for her own glory and wealth? Zhong Xiwu gradually became angry and asked Hua Qian why he was always reluctant to take a step towards him. Hua Qian asked why he never asked himself if he was willing. Zhong Xiwu was even more puzzled. In his opinion, there was no reason for Hua Qian to be unwilling. But he seemed to have forgotten that Hua Qian was never a caged bird.

In order to prevent further trouble, Zhongxiwu placed Hua Qian under house arrest in Zhongshi Garden and sent Ginkgo to serve around him. On this day, Meng Yifei brought several guards to Hua Qianxing to question him. He didn't know how high or low he wanted to take revenge. As a result, she didn't even see Hua Qian's shadow. In order to make Hua Qian happy, Ginkgo specially told Hua Qian about this. But Hua Qian was still staring at a book, with no smile on his face, and even a terrifying expressionless face.

Meng Yifei complained to the eldest princess, hoping that she would make the decision for him and punish Hua Qian well. But not only did the other party not sympathize with her, they even withdrew her rights in Zhongshi Garden. Meng Yifei was so frightened that she knew that she had lost the eldest princess card. But she couldn't swallow this sigh of relief, so she planned to start from the supervisors. On this day, Manager Meng publicly complained for Meng Yifei and asked Zhong Xiwu to punish Hua Qian as a warning to others. Zhong Xiwu was furious and took the opportunity to announce that Zhong Yelan would go to the south to take over the affairs of the Meng family from now on. Manager Meng made empty promises and had no choice but to admit defeat.

After that, Zhong Xiwu came to Meng Yifei angrily and warned her to keep her mouth shut. If she spread the news again and used the Meng family to put pressure on herself, her patience would have limits. Meng Yifei was very aggrieved and wanted to win Zhong Xiwu's sympathy with the injury on his face. But she made a wrong calculation. Zhong Xiwu knew all about her previous plans against the Hua family. Meng Yifei suddenly felt desperate, as if he had reached a cliff with no retreat or support.

Mu Yao originally planned to plead for the Hua family, after all, this matter originated from the Mu family. But in the current situation, Mu Yao's words are useless. Zhong Yelan thought about it and decided to visit Zhong's Garden in person. And the fact is as Mu Yao said, sometimes a man's jealousy is enough to swallow up his reason. As soon as Zhong Yelan mentioned Hua Qian, Zhong Xiwu was annoyed. Simply, Zhong Yelan took out a letter and expressed his determination to Zhong Xiwu. He has decided to make Muyao his official wife and take her with him to the south.

After hearing that the Hua family was in trouble, Hua Rongzhou planned to return to Huangcheng. But as soon as he packed his luggage, he was stopped by Wu Shuomo. It turned out that Hua Qian sent a message to Wu Shuomo in advance, asking him to keep an eye on Hua Rongzhou for him.
