The New Year is coming soon. Although the New Year is not as grand as in the future, it is still the beginning of the year. Therefore, every household is preparing for the New Year, especially the inside and outside of the home, which means getting rid of the old and welcoming the new. We hope to usher in a better new life in the new year.

However, Zhang Zong has no intention of celebrating the New Year now. After Xue Shao was arrested by Princess Chengyang, he was placed under house arrest at home. Zhang Zong visited the door several times, but he could only see Princess Chengyang, but he could not see Xue Shao at all. Even Li Hong came forward in person, but it was still useless. It seems that Princess Chengyang was determined to break the relationship between Xue Shao and Changsun Yuanyi.

"Young Master, this is the snack I just made. How about you try it?" At this time, Wan'er entered the room with a plate of exquisite snacks and greeted Zhang Zong with a smile.

"It tastes good." Zhang Zong pinched a snack and threw it into his mouth, and then praised it. But to be honest, he couldn't taste the taste of the snack at all, because his mind was not on it at all.

Wan'er also knew that Zhang Zong was worried about Xue Shao's affairs, so she also advised: "Young Master, you don't have to worry too much. Although the eldest princess does not agree with the affairs of Mr. Xue and the Changsun family, they are mother and son after all, so Mr. Xue will definitely not be able to do anything!"

"I know, but Saburo has a very strong relationship with Changsun Yuanyi. He is too young. I am really afraid that he will do something irrational under impulse." Zhang Zong said worriedly at this time.

"It shouldn't be true. Didn't Mr. Xue say that he wants to eat all kinds of delicious food? This wish has not been fulfilled. I think he should be reluctant to give up his life." Wan'er spoke again when she heard Zhang Zong's words.

"This reason... is really convincing!" Zhang Zong was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded in agreement. For Xue Shao, a foodie, food is his first pursuit.

However, Zhang Zong thought again and again that although Xue Shao loved food, he was also a teenager who was in a period of hormonal dysfunction. God knew that he would not be so angry and would be desperate for love. This kind of thing was not completely impossible.

Thinking of the above, Zhang Zong's heart also raised again, but at this moment, a familiar voice came from outside and said, "Brother Shi! Are you here?"

"Ning'er!" Zhang Zong immediately ran out of the room excitedly when he heard this voice. Sure enough, he saw Xue Ning'er in a fur coat running quickly from outside the door. When he saw him, he rushed into his arms and shouted, "Brother Shi, you are so good here, hurry up... find a way to save the third brother!"

"What's wrong with Sanlang? Is something really wrong?" Zhang Zong was shocked when he heard this, grabbed Ning'er's shoulder with both hands and asked anxiously.

"Third brother... Third brother has been on a hunger strike, and he hasn't eaten for two days!" Ning'er also wiped her tears when she said this. During this period, Xue Shao and Princess Chengyang had a quarrel. She was in a dilemma when she was stuck in the middle. After persuading this and that, it was useless, so she wanted to ask Zhang Zong for help.

When Zhang Zong heard that Xue Shao had just had a hunger strike, he breathed a sigh of relief. After all, a hunger strike would not die for a while. It was just that Xue Shao was suffering a little more, so he said to Ning'er again: "Ning'er, don't cry first, let's go into the house and talk in detail!"

Ning'er nodded at this time, and then followed Zhang Zong into the room. Zhang Zong also asked about Xue Shao's situation at home during this period. Compared to the news he had found, Xue Ning'er must have known more details.

Xue Ning'er seemed very tired at this time. She first picked up the tea and drank it all in one breath, and then she talked about the situation after Xue Shao was arrested and returned home.

It turned out that after Xue Shao was arrested that day, he had a big fight with Princess Chengyang. It was the first time that the mother and son quarreled so fiercely. Speaking of which, Xue Shao usually didn't even dare to show off his anger in front of Princess Chengyang, but this time, for his marriage, he was not afraid of Princess Chengyang at all, and wanted to marry Changsun Yuanyi as his wife.

In the end, Princess Chengyang was very angry and immediately ordered him to be placed under house arrest in the mansion, strictly prohibiting anyone from contacting him. At first, even Xue Ning'er could not see him. It was not until Xue Ning'er cried and begged several times that Princess Chengyang softened her heart and agreed to let Xue Ning'er visit Xue Shao.

However, even though he was under house arrest, Xue Shao still did not give in and went on a hunger strike two days ago. If Princess Chengyang did not agree to him for a day, he would not eat for a day. Princess Chengyang was also very tough, but it scared Xue Ning'er.

"I went to see my third brother this morning and secretly brought him food. At that time, he was so hungry that he had no strength, but he refused to eat no matter what. If this continues, I am really afraid that my third brother will be hungry at least!" Ning'er said in the end and wiped her tears again. She grew up with Xue Shao since she was a child. If something happened to Xue Shao, she would definitely be the most painful one.

"Ninger, don't worry, Sanlang won't have anything to do for the time being, and I believe the eldest princess won't watch Sanlang really get hungry!" Zhang Zong comforted again.

"But... but my mother's attitude is also very tough. She even wanted to propose marriage to His Majesty at the end of this year to let Taiping get engaged with her third brother. It was my mother's words that made the third brother decide to go on a hunger strike. Moreover, the third brother has been hungry for two days. My mother has not made any statement yet, and she has not even visited her third brother." Xue Ning'er said very worriedly, and at the end of her speech, she burst out with tears.

"Princess, how did you come out? Did the eldest princess ask you to come to find the young master?" At this moment, Wan'er next to her suddenly asked.

"No, I wanted to ask Brother Shi for help, but I was afraid that my mother would not agree, so I found an excuse, so my mother agreed to let me go out." Xue Ning'er wiped her tears and replied.

"What excuse?" Wan'er asked again.

"I...I said I dreamed of my deceased parents last night, so today I wanted to burn some paper money for my parents, so my mother let me go." Although Xue Ning'er felt that Wan'er's problem was a little strange, she still explained. Of course, she must have not come out alone, and there were also a group of maids and women outside the door.

"Haha, I've finished asking. The young master should understand what the eldest princess means!" Wan'er chuckled and said to Zhang Zong beside her.
