I painted red makeup for Hou Ye

Chapter 20
The wind blew Cui Yu's skirt, and Master Cui persuaded, "It's getting late, go early."

Cui Yu and Cui Mei hurriedly said goodbye to them.

It was not until the shadow of the carriage disappeared that the family returned to the mansion.

In Yang's mansion, Yang Rongguo sat quietly in the study, and the next one was Xue Cheng, the commander of the forbidden army.

"Master Xiang, at this time, the two gentlemen of the Cui family have already left Beijing?" Xue Cheng asked.

Yang Rongguo nodded slightly: "Yes."

"I don't understand, why do you want to speak with the Holy One and let them go to relieve the disaster?" It would be bad if the Cui brothers made meritorious service.

Yang Rongguo knew what he was thinking, and sneered: "The place where the disaster happened is remote, and foreign enemies often invade. If they want to make meritorious service, they must die."

Besides, these two boys are just two frail scholars.

Hearing this, Xue Cheng said quickly: "You are very right."

Two swallows flew from a tree not far outside the courtyard, and he asked again: "Master Xiang, the Marquis of Wu'an..."

As soon as this was mentioned, Yang Rongguo's face turned dark, he snorted coldly, and said angrily: "This bastard clearly wants to draw a line with us."

His eyes were dark and deep: "In the future, if Wan marries to the East Palace, the prince will be ours. It's just that he has always had a deep friendship with Ji Yun. I'm afraid that after the prince ascends the throne, he will be bewitched by that kid."

When Xue Cheng heard his words, he got up quickly and said, "My minister has a plan."

In the dark cell, the woman was lying on the ground covered in blood, and there were occasional rats screaming around her.

There was a sound of unlocking the lock, and then several guards pulled her out.

All the way to the interrogation room not far away.

Ji Yun sat in front of the table, he looked at the bamboo slips on the table, "Your name is Nongxue?"

The lights here are bright, but it is not as dark as the prison cell.

Nongxue knelt down and did not speak.Since she failed to attack on New Year's Eve, she was locked up here by Ji Yun's people.He was tortured by various methods every day, but his life was hanged, and he couldn't even die.

Ji Yun raised his head to look at her, her beautiful face was covered with blood, her cheekbones were prominent, and her lavender palace dress was also stained red by blood.

He sighed and said: "It's a pity for such a beauty, you are too tight-lipped, and these people under me are all rough people, and they don't know how to pity and cherish jade."

Nongxue knelt on the ground without saying a word, her eyes were fixed on the brazier not far away, and sparks burst out from the brazier from time to time.

Ji Yun snorted softly: "You are from Yan Zhaoyi's palace, I don't know if you are missing, will she know?"

After all, he raised his eyebrows lightly: "I don't think so, a maid, she must have as much as she wants."

He rubbed his nose, and said again: "However, this Marquis heard that you have a younger brother and a seriously ill mother. If they hear that you are missing, they must be worried, right?"

Hearing this, Nongxue finally raised her head to look at him.

Standing aside, Shen Shujun dropped the notebook in his hand, and said, "Hurry up, she's such a beautiful woman, she's doing some murderous deeds."

Nongxue pursed her lips, and gave Ji Yun a hard look: "I will never say anything, even if you threaten me with my aunt and brother."

As soon as these words came out, Shen Shujun took a deep breath, "You even your family's..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard Ji Yun say: "If you talk too much, go back."

Seeing his cold eyes, Shen Shujun quickly covered his mouth, and gave Mo Cheng a quiet look.

Mo Cheng shook his head helplessly.

Ji Yun chuckled, stood up from the chair, walked to the edge of the brazier, picked up a piece of charcoal fire with the fire chopsticks and said, "Since that's the case, then I have nothing to worry about. I don't know if the charcoal fire is placed in a child's face, will he cry?"

As soon as he said this, Nongxue shook his head at him: "No."

Ji Yun snorted coldly: "Why not, she's not a pretty little girl either, I still can do it."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Nongxue intently: "How about it, do you want to tell me?"

Nongxue just stared at him fiercely, but Ji Yun gently put the charcoal fire back, with a smile on his face again, looking like an innocent boy.

After a long time, Nongxue finally spoke, "I won't say."

At some point, Shen Shujun was already sitting in Ji Yun's original seat. He rolled up the bamboo slips and hummed, "I'm stubborn."

But Nongxue sneered: "Master Hou, without me, there are other people who want to attack Madam Cui, just wait and see."

Ji Yun ignored her and asked someone to take her down.

However, Shen Shujun stuck out his tongue at Nongxue, walked to Ji Yun's side again, and said in relief: "Brother, don't worry. Since Madam Cui had an accident last time, the Cui family has ordered people to guard her carefully. No problem, let's send someone to guard her quietly to ensure that nothing will happen."

Ji Yun lowered his eyelids: "It's not that I'm worried about her. The Cui family is kind to me. Besides, that person's background is unknown. I'm afraid it will be detrimental to our plan."

Shen Shujun curled his lips, and asked: "Could it be Yang Xiang this time? That old man, didn't he always regard the Cui family as a thorn in his side, even if the Cui family is now in decline, he still clings to it tightly. "

Ji Yun shook his head: "Maybe it's not him."

Perhaps it was "the mantis catching the cicada and the oriole in the back". Ever since he returned to Beijing, he always felt a pair of hands holding him tightly.Let's be overwhelmed.

When Shen Shujun told him about the gun before, he thought it was the Yan family, but now that he thinks about it, maybe the Yan family is just the tip of the iceberg.

After sending off Cui Yu and the others, Cui Xuan started to relax in the mansion, Cui Wang didn't allow her to go out, and sent someone to watch her all day long.

She posted a post to Fu Yao, but Fu Yao also rejected her, only evading that the house was busy.

Cui Xuan lay helplessly on the table, patted her face again and said, "They're all busy people, and I'm the only one free, right?"

It seemed that in response to her words, someone posted a post for her soon.

Seeing the post from Yang Fu, Cui Xuan twitched the corners of her mouth: "Yang Ruowan posted the post with me?"

She was puzzled, she had never had any friendship with Yang Ruowan.

She frowned tightly, because she knew the behavior of Yang Defei and Yang Rongguo, she naturally didn't have a good impression of Yang Ruowan.

She lowered her eyelids, but the matter of those girls was still hanging in her heart. Although Cui Yu told her before leaving that he had left someone in Beijing to track down their whereabouts, but there is no news yet.

"Yunxi, take the post."

How can you get tiger cubs if you don't enter the tiger's den, maybe Yang Defei hid them in Yang's mansion this time.

Besides, if she went with her guards, the Yang family would never attack her in their own mansion.
