A Thousand Gold Order: Inheritance

Dongfang Mu was still standing by the window with his arms folded.

It was raining heavily outside, he should have taken an umbrella on the way.

But pretending to be a servant, even though she can roam around the mansion in troubled waters at night, Ye Xunyi is a female family member in the back house, so the servants are not allowed to come and go in and out of her yard at will.

When Dongfang Mu climbed over the wall, his clothes would inevitably get wet, but his upper body was not seriously drenched, but his trouser legs, shoes and socks were completely wet.

Standing there, dripping water onto the floor.

Ye Xunyi frowned irritably, but quickly covered it up: "You came to me again today just to tell me about this?"

"Isn't this an important matter?" Dongfang Mu asked unconsciously.

Ye Xunyi sneered: "You should believe my words now, as long as you make good use of that Qi Huan, we will definitely have an opportunity to take advantage of Wu Chenghou."

"It's really just like that?" Dongfang Mu was somewhat disapproving.

This person always came uninvited, came in and out of her place at will, and had an arrogant attitude. He didn't treat her as an equal ally at all.

This kind of treatment made Ye Xunyi feel dissatisfied from the bottom of his heart, but he was helpless.

At night, she was woken up just as she fell asleep.

It was such a cold and rainy autumn night again, which made her feel very irritable.

She asked impatiently, "What else?"

Dongfang Mu didn't seem to notice her attitude at all, but thought thoughtfully, "I'm talking about the girl from Changning Hou Mansion, what is she trying to do?"

That Miss Qi and Duke Ping's eldest son are already engaged, and the affection between the two is deep, and they get along very well.

A girl's family, the future is bright and bright...

But now she is so superfluous and sticky with Qin Song?

Judging from the girl's behavior, she doesn't look like a fool who would be so careless and take her bright future to the next level.

Ye Xunyi had a deep prejudice against Qi Huan, she understood what Dongfang Mu meant, but she sneered contemptuously, and instinctively retorted: "It's just a loose bitch!"

Dongfang Mu raised his eyebrows.

Ye Xunyi also realized that she was a lady of a great family, so she was a bit self-deprecating by cursing other ladies behind her back in such a vulgar way.

But Qi Huan has repeatedly spoiled her, and she has already been dragged into the blacklist of the hostile camp.

not to mention--

Ever since everything went wrong for her and she started to recite her luck, and then she went to see that everything went well, and Qi Huan, who never quits and escorted her in every situation...

Jealousy and hatred haunted her, and she couldn't bear it even more, she hated Qi Huan so much that her teeth itch.

"Sometimes it's not only men who have ambitions, but also women. It's just two boats. What's so strange?" She covered up her emotions appropriately, and said calmly, "I remember Qi at the beginning. The relationship between Huan and Gu Zhan had been ambiguous and sticky for a long time before they were formally settled. The reason is probably that their family was somewhat jealous of Gu Zhan's background as a general, and felt that it was not good for their daughter to live with such a man. Be down-to-earth. Later, after weighing the pros and cons, although Gu Zhan was settled, she still had some concerns, especially this time with Gao Changjie's accident... I heard that Qi Huan was returning to Beijing from Gao Changjie's coffin, so she She has been deliberately avoiding it, and has not even visited the door to express her condolences in person so far, so it is clear at a glance what she is tabooing."

Saying this, Ye Xunyi sneered mockingly again: "It's also Qin Song's bad luck. If he hadn't had a whim at this juncture and asked himself to be transferred to the army, maybe it would be true." There will be a chance."

Although Qi Huan didn't say anything clearly, as an opponent and enemy, she was able to see through the woman's indecision at a glance!
After weighing at first, she chose Gu Zhan, which should be the result of a comprehensive consideration of family background and personality.

But this time Gao Changjie's death made her a frightened bird and was deeply shocked.

It is impossible for the Gu family to give up their military power because of the relationship with Prince Yun Zhan. Gu Zhan is destined to continue on this road of generals. If she really can't stand the days of fear in the future...

That woman, in her opinion, has the same ruthless sobriety as herself, after weighing the pros and cons again, it is not impossible to give up Gu Zhan.

By the time……

Maybe Qin Song will really catch him!
certainly--

In Ye Xunyi's eyes, Gu Zhan and Qin Song are just two unreasonable lunatics!
There are so many well-known ladies in the whole capital, and there are many people with better family background, reputation, and temper than Qi Huan, but those two people just keep their eyes on Qi Huan...

There is something wrong with my brain!

She really wanted to ask, what exactly are these two men planning?
"But no matter what, Marquis Wu Cheng's request to leave Beijing this time is indeed an opportunity for us!" Dongfang Mu was a little persuaded by her persuasion, and stopped entangled with Qi Huan and the other three. emotional entanglements.

He sternly reminded Ye Xunyi: "I still say the same thing, those who achieve great things must be able to bend and stretch. Since you want to use Wu Chenghou Qin Song to make a fuss, you can't find him in your own name. Your Highness Ning Wang has a ready-made piece of paper. Shield, don't use it for nothing."

Whether it is to win over or encourage Qin Song, someone must come forward to provoke him.

Ye Xunyi naturally wouldn't come out in person.

She doesn't want to take the risk of being strong, but also knows that Qin Song has a great prejudice against her because of Qin Shuo's matter. If she comes forward——

The chances of success will only be greatly reduced.

"You don't need to tell me how to do things again and again, I know the seriousness, and I have my own plans for these things." Ye Xunyi looked unhappy, and his face became colder, "I will be able to go out and walk around in a few days. , what did you promise to give me before? Did you get it?"

The corners of Dongfang Mu's lips twitched, and he took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom and threw it to her.

The small brown bottle fell between the peach-red quilts, which looked very harsh and uncoordinated.

Ye Xunyi picked up the bottle.

For the sake of caution, I didn't open it rashly, but just shook it in my hand.

There was only a small ball in it.

She didn't seem to be used to seeing the other party being so aggressive, so she frowned and looked at Dongfang Mu again.

Dongfang Mu said: "It's highly poisonous, and you will definitely die within three days. Even if there are masters in the imperial physicians who can detoxify with medicine, they can come up with prescriptions for detoxification, but the most important medicine needed for detoxification is only available in the south, and it must be Take it now and use it now, fresh medicine will be effective, and within three days, unless they have the ability to fly into the sky and escape from the ground, otherwise...they have no other way to detoxify except being controlled by you."

Ye Xunyi was expressionless: "Won't you give me the antidote?"

"I thought you didn't need it." Dongfang Mu teased half-truthfully, but then took out another small blue porcelain bottle from his bosom and threw it over, explaining, "The pill will be slightly poisonous when it dissolves in clear water. The floating color, it is said... the taste is not very obvious, it is best to dissolve it in tea or mix it with food, so that no one will notice it."

Ye Xunyi remained silent, saying that he knew.

The sound of the rain outside seemed to be quieter now, so Dongfang Mu pushed the window and jumped out again.

Before leaving, he turned his head and took a deep look at Ye Xunyi: "Waiting for your good news."

After he turned out the window, except for the cold patter of rain, there was no other movement outside.

Ye Xunyi held two small porcelain vases in his hands and sat there for a while, until he heard the voice of the maid sleeping in the next room getting up and pushing the door out.

Recently, because Dongfang Mu was always coming to her, she didn't allow her maids to sleep in her room at night, and told them to leave a lamp in the room so that she could get up in the middle of the night.

Therefore, seeing the light in her room was on, the servant girl didn't hear the sound, just pretending that she was still asleep, so she didn't come over to ask anything.

Ye Xunyi stuffed the two small porcelain bottles under the pillow, and when he heard the maid's footsteps coming back from the toilet, she called out, "Come here."

The maid went back to the house to wash her hands before rushing over again.

Pushing open the door and coming in, he said cautiously: "Master, are you up at night too? The servants serve you?"

Ye Xunyi, however, sat there without moving, and glanced at the pool of water left by the window: "Clean up there."

The maid followed her line of sight and looked over. The light was not good at night. She took a closer look and found that it was a pool of water stains mixed with mud. She was also very surprised: "Why is this wet?"

Ye Xunyi had already hugged the quilt and lay back on the bed, casually said: "The window was not closed tightly at night, a cat jumped in just now."

The water stain was quite large, and it didn't look like it was left by a small animal by mistake.

Moreover, the servant girl remembered very clearly that she came over to check the windows on Ye Xunyi's side before going to bed, and they were all bolted and locked.

Thinking about it, it might be that the master got up by himself and opened the window for ventilation and forgot to close it...

The maid knew that Ye Xunyi didn't like troublesome people, so she didn't speculate, she got a rag to wipe off the water stains little by little.

When she stood up and looked again, Ye Xunyi was already lying on her side on the bed, as if she had fallen asleep again, so she closed the door lightly and backed out.

In the Marquis of Changning, after Qin Song left Beijing, Qi Huan seemed to have settled his mind and relaxed a lot.

The next day, the weather cleared up, but she still didn't go out, and stayed at home to take care of Yang's child for another day.

After having dinner at An Xuetang in the evening, she coaxed Qi Yuanchen to sleep by helping her, and dawdled for a while.

When Qi Yuanchen came out after coaxing him to sleep in the wing room, he saw Mrs. Yun waiting at the door, and smiled at her: "Madam asked you to go to her room to talk for a while."

"Okay." Qi Huan smiled back at her, and he could probably guess why Yang Shi was looking for him.

Although--

She was dawdling on purpose today, and wanted to talk to Yang Shi alone later.

In the middle of the night, when their mother and daughter wanted to whisper, Miss Yun didn't follow.

Qi Huan entered the room and closed the door. At that time, Mrs. Yang had already washed and changed, and was sitting under the lamp in her pajamas, waiting for her while looking at the account book.

"The light is not good at night, reading the account books will hurt your eyes." Qi Huan couldn't help reminding.

Mrs. Yang also closed the account book in a good manner and put it aside.

She waved at her daughter.

Qi Huan walked over and sat down on the stool next to her.

With a gentle smile on Yang's face, he shook her hand, but hesitated a bit when he was about to speak.

Qi Huan saw it, and then smiled: "Mother, don't worry, there is nothing wrong between me and Gu Zhan."

Ever since the Gao family began to hold funerals, although Qi Huan acted nonchalantly, everyone could see that she was deliberately avoiding the funeral affairs of the Gao family, and Yang, the mother, was even more perceptive.

Knowing that her daughter was concerned and sensitive about this matter, she also endured it these days, hesitating and not knowing how to say this.

But seeing that Qi Huan said it directly without concealing it, Yang's heart was a little more settled, but she still couldn't help but sighed worriedly: "I know what you think in your heart, the matter of your uncle... there is always a disaster Fu, these are all uncertain. You can relax, you have suffered a lot in the first ten years of lingering on the sick bed, and you should have a smooth road for the rest of your life."

In the beginning, she was extremely disapproving of Qi Huan's marriage to the Gu family.

But now-

It's not just because of the established marriage, it's because the mother and daughter have received too much care from Gu Zhan in the past half a year.

To be human, first of all, we must have a heart of gratitude.

especially--

Gu Zhan has nothing to choose from his character to his love for his daughter.

In the current situation, it is impossible for her to persuade Qi Huan to resign and choose a new path. She can only pray day and night, hoping that Gu Zhanji will have his own destiny.

Calling Qi Huan to talk is because Qi Huan is depressed recently, and he wants to comfort him with words.

Qi Huan naturally didn't want to make her worry about her own affairs, so she nodded obediently and smiled: "I know, I just haven't been in a good mood recently."

"Really?" Yang Shi was still not at ease, "Gu Shizi shouldn't be busy these days, I see he doesn't come every day now, aren't you arguing?"

"It's nothing!" Qi Huan immediately clarified, thinking that she really felt sorry for Gu Zhan, she inevitably seemed depressed, and said with a wry smile: "It's all because I've been in a bad mood recently, he must have noticed it, probably too You don’t want to see my sullen face, so you stay away for two days so that I can calm down, we’re really fine.”

Yang didn't think her daughter would lie to herself about such a matter.

But think about it again...

Gu Zhan was indeed pitiful in front of her daughter, it could be said that he had to compromise to the extreme.

Seeing that Qi Huan is in a bad mood because of other people's affairs, obviously if Qi Huan blamed him for this kind of thing, it would be very unreasonable to make trouble——

The kid acted as if he had done something wrong himself.

Being so careful, he really cared about Qi Huan.

"Alas!" Yang couldn't be harsh on her daughter, so she couldn't help but sighed heavily.

Seeing this, Qi Huan cheered up to comfort him: "I'm much better now, I'll go to him later, mother, don't worry about our affairs."

As for the matter of feelings, it's just the two people's self-knowledge of how warm and cold they are, and Yang really can't intervene.

She just grabbed Qi Huan's hand and shook it hard.

Qi Huan didn't want to keep her upset about this matter, so he changed the subject.

She looked back at the door, but she didn't see anyone around, so she dragged Mrs. Yang into the inner room.

The mother and daughter sat on the edge of the bed together, she didn't beat around the bush, and asked Yang Shi directly: "Mother, I have something to ask you."

"What?" Seeing her mysterious appearance, Yang couldn't help being a little more cautious from the bottom of her heart.

"It's about... Aunt Yun." Knowing that Mrs. Yang has great trust in Lady Yun, Qi Huan still tried to choose his words carefully, "A few days ago, I mentioned in a chat that Yun Xi said that Aunt Yun most likely wanted to take her back to her hometown in Jiangnan. I've probably heard about Aunt Yun and Yun Xi's history. Isn't there no one in their hometown? This is the capital city that followed you. Let's talk about falling leaves returning to their roots... Aunt Yun is only in her early thirties, thinking about it It's too early. Has she...does anything happen recently?"

Qi Huan said while closely observing even the most subtle emotional changes on Yang's face.

When she mentioned the situation in Miss Yun's hometown, Yang's expression flickered obviously.

Then, she collected herself, but first asked Qi Huan: "What exactly did Yun Xi say?"

Qi Huan said: "She only said that Mrs. Yun asked her if she wanted to go back to her hometown to find a husband's house. You know that girl's mother Yunxi, she is heartless. She said that Mrs. Yun just mentioned it casually when she was chatting. I didn't say any more. But Aunt Yun has been with my mother for many years, and I know her more or less. If she hadn't really had such a plan, she would not have said this casually. I don't doubt her, or she is a little abnormal. I always feel... She seems to have something on her mind recently."

Qi Huan didn't want to mention Yun Zhi's matter for the time being, so he tried his best to be euphemistic.

Under the shadow of the lamp, Yang was suddenly silent for a long time.

Seeing her reaction, Qi Huan knew that Miss Yun must be hiding something, so he waited patiently and quietly.

Yang shi kept silent for half a cup of tea, and then looked up at Qi Huan in front of her again.

She held Qi Huan's hand, with a hint of sadness and helplessness in her expression and words, and said slowly: "She told me."

"Huh?" Qi Huan didn't know why, and didn't realize exactly what she was referring to for a moment.

Yang said: "Yunxi... is actually her biological daughter. Recently, she seems to have met someone who knows about her old stories."
