Chapter 79
At si o'clock the next day, Xing'er saw that Lin Youyi hadn't got up yet, so she gently pushed the door open.

Who knows, as soon as she entered the boudoir, she saw Lin Youyi wrapped in a black cloak, holding a lotus lantern in her hand, curled up on the imperial concubine's couch, fast asleep.

Xing'er didn't want to wake Lin Youyi up, and was about to turn around and leave, but accidentally bumped into the short table at her feet.

The muffled sound woke Lin Youyi up, she stretched her waist with a groan, and opened her eyes in a daze.

"Miss, are you awake?"

"What time is it?"

"It's three quarters."

"It's so late? Too bad, I didn't make it in time to greet my mother and the old lady today..."

"Miss, this servant is also wondering why you haven't gotten up at this hour, so I just wanted to come in and take a look at you. But, why did you sleep on the imperial concubine's bed? You are still wrapped in such a cloak? Slaves I don't remember, you have this cloak. And, what is it?"

As Xing'er said, she was going to get the lotus lantern in Lin Youyi's arms.

Lin Youyi hugged the lotus lantern nervously and flashed back, Xing'er froze on the spot.

"Miss, you..."

"This lotus lantern is very important! Myolie, go and help me find a glazed lampshade and put this lotus lantern away."

Seeing that Lin Youyi was so nervous, Xing'er quickly responded.

Taking advantage of Xing'er's preparation time, Lin Youyi took off the cloak on her body, stroked the golden dragon embroidered on it thoughtfully.

Last night, Mu Zheng took so much trouble for her, could it be that he just wanted to thank her for helping her many times?
Or did Mu Zheng actually have other intentions?

From the moment this idea popped up in Lin Youyi's mind, her joyful mood instantly fell into an ice cave!

Thinking about it, it must be because she predicted the Taimiao fire, and Mu Zheng saw the value of her use, so he took so much trouble, in fact, he wanted to win her over for his own use.

In other words, after what happened last night, now, she can be considered to have truly become Mu Zheng's person!

Not the person in his heart, but the person in his hands!
Lin Youyi stared blankly at the lotus lantern, she thought that it was the stars in her heart, but unexpectedly, it became a fire contract for her to sell herself!

However, even so, Lin Youyi still couldn't put it down for that lotus lantern.

However, that lotus lantern no longer had the charm she imagined.

As a pawn, Lin Youyi has her own consciousness.

Although it was hard to hide the disappointment in her heart, in all fairness, wasn't this exactly what she wanted?

With Mu Zheng as a big tree for Lin Youyi to rely on, then Xiao Yu'an is no longer a threat to her.

Thinking of Xiao Yu'an, Lin Youyi always felt that he was acting strange recently, maybe he was plotting some trick against her again!

Just a few days ago, the old lady not only accepted the blessing bag that Lin Youyi begged for, but also indirectly punished Xiao Qinyao and Xiao Muxue because of Lin Youyi.

The two sisters held a grudge, so one day, when Lin Youyi was passing by the lotus pond, they joined forces and pushed her into the lotus pond!

Lin Youyi didn't know how to swim, and when she suddenly fell into the lotus pond, she was so frightened that she repeatedly called for help.

However, all the soldiers in the mansion seemed to have disappeared, no matter how much Lin Youyi cried out for help, no one appeared.

It was Xiao Muxue, who was standing by the lotus pond, and followed Lin Youyi to call for help with a smile all over her face!
Just when Lin Youyi thought that she was about to be drowned, Xiao Yuan suddenly rushed out, jumped into the lotus pond, and rescued her.

Lin Youyi was really frightened at that time. Even after falling asleep at night, her dream was full of mud in the lotus pond, which covered her whole body and made her breathless!
Afterwards, Xiao Yuan even came to visit her.

But as Lin Youyi expected, Xiao Yu'an came to intercede for his two younger sisters.

On that day, Xiao Qinyao was in charge of dismissing all the soldiers of the Marquis Mansion, while Xiao Muxue was in charge of pushing Lin Youyi into the lotus pond.

However, the two sisters never imagined that such a perfect plan would be destroyed in Xiao Yu'an's hands.

"Are you OK?"

"Try being pushed into the lotus pond to see if it's okay?"

"Qin Yao and Mu Xue...not..."

"What isn't it? Didn't mean it? Heh, don't tell me that you believe the two of them are innocent!"

"What do you want to make peace?"

"If you hadn't saved me, I would have made the two of them pay the price! But since it was you...that one life for two, I won't say anything about it. For the old lady, it's up to you to say it. I won't tear them apart!"

At that time, Xiao Yu'an didn't seem to have thought that Lin Youyi was so easy to talk to.

He was obviously stunned for a moment, seeing Lin Youyi coughing non-stop, he hesitated for a moment in his heart.

Just as he turned to leave, Lin Youyi said in a cold voice.

"Xiao Yu'an, I advise you to take care of your two younger sisters! If there is another time, I will definitely not let it go!"

"Lin Youyi, I also advise you to keep yourself safe and be a man with your tail between your legs! You are not so lucky every time that you can escape from death!"

Hearing the words "near death" from Xiao Yu'an's mouth, Lin Youyi felt a chill all over her body!
The memory of the previous life, like a revolving lantern, began to recur uncontrollably in Lin Youyi's mind!

Lin Youyi hated it deeply, angrily grabbed the medicine bowl in hand, and threw it at Xiao Yuan directly.

"roll!"

Just as Lin Youyi was thinking, Xing'er had already bouncing back to the house with a glazed lampshade in her arms.

"Miss? What are you thinking about? Recently, you've been in a daze for no reason. What are you thinking about? Could it be that you fell into the water before, and you still have lingering fears?"

"Is your lady so delicate? All kinds of things in the past... Hey, forget it, it's okay, go, help me put the lotus lantern away."

"Yes!"

"Myolie, recently, is there any news from the courtyards over there?"

Lin Youyi always felt that the quietness of the Hou Mansion recently made her flustered.

Especially Xiao Yu'an, Lin Youyi couldn't tell why, she just felt like something was about to happen.

After thinking about it, a special envoy suddenly came to deliver the emperor's oral order in the palace.

After Lin Youyi tidied up in a hurry, she hurried to the central hall, and then saw that all the masters of the houses had arrived except Chengyang Hou.

As a result, to everyone's surprise, the oracle this time was actually for Lin Youyi.

After the emperor heard about Lin Youyi's world-shattering dancing posture from Concubine Xiao, he wanted to feast his eyes on it.

Just half a month later, the new Patriarch of the Confucian Mansion took over and took office, and the new Jinshi was officially announced.
