Wanfu, the Reborn Empress

Chapter 216
Compared to the relaxed atmosphere in Gu Yanxi's carriage, the atmosphere in Feng Yichen's carriage was a bit more dignified.

Chi Feng has been tentatively observing his master's expression all the way, seeing that although his master is holding a chess piece in his hand and looking at the chess game, he has never made a chess piece. It seems that he is here and his thoughts are drifting away.

I thought it was the master's mood that drifted to the third girl, but along the way, except for the master mentioning the third girl just now, the master never said anything more; it can be seen that the master is not thinking about the third girl now. Miss, but since it's not about the third girl, who is the master thinking about with his thoughtful expression now?
Chi Feng was so curious that he couldn't sit still, and started scratching his ears and cheeks after a while, like a restless monkey.

And Feng Yichen was finally attracted by him after Chifeng made a fuss, and slowly raised his eyelashes, the slender eyelashes covering his beautiful eyes like glass, and asked: "What's wrong with your fidgeting look? If you don’t feel comfortable sitting there, go out and ride the horse, don’t dangle in front of me.”

Seeing that the master was finally willing to talk to himself, Chi Feng quickly seized the opportunity, and looked at the master bluntly: "Young master, I have a question, and I want to ask you."

Feng Yichen finally put down the sunspot in his hand, and said in a calm tone, "If it's some boring question, then don't ask me."

"Not boring, not boring, definitely not boring." Chifeng patted his chest to assure, with a smile on his face: "My lord, what were you thinking just now? So engrossed in thinking?"

Feng Yichen raised the corner of his eyes and glanced at Chifeng.

Chifeng seemed to feel a gust of cold air rushing towards him, which made him tremble, and then he realized how bold a question he asked, and quickly waved his hand to explain, saying: "My lord, don't misunderstand, The subordinate didn't mean to peek into the young master's mind, the subordinate was just curious. Since the young master was not thinking about the third girl, who would be so engrossed in thinking about it? The subordinate has been serving the young master for so long, and it is still rare to see the young master showing his face. Such a focused expression."

Feng Yichen smiled, "How do you know I wasn't thinking about Jiaojiao just now?"

"When the young master is thinking about the third girl, there will be a vague smile on the corner of his mouth. At this time, the young master is the best to speak, and he is almost responsive, so in normal times, if his subordinates do something wrong, they will choose this time. Acknowledge your mistake, hehe!..."

Looking at Chifeng's smirk, Feng Yichen was not angry at him for saying that, because what he said was quite right, and he said that he smiled when he was thinking of Jiaojiao. He didn't even know, so he was still in a good mood when he suddenly heard him say that.

Feng Yichen said: "Since your observation is still considerate, then I'll tell you what I was thinking just now."

After a pause, he said, "I'm thinking, Gu Yanling."

"Huh? Young master, what do you think of the second girl? Could it be that you want..." Even if Chi Feng had the guts to say the next words, he would not dare to say them, but his eyes betrayed his thoughts.

Feng Yichen grabbed a handful of chess pieces and threw them at Chifeng, saying angrily, "You've been thinking about something in a mess all day long, quickly throw away those impossible thoughts of yours, there is nothing between me and Gu Yanling. No."

Chi Feng said: "Since there is nothing, why does the young master say that he is thinking of the second girl?! Although the second girl was born beautiful, she is far inferior to the third girl, and her temperament is also very important. I don't like people very much. Young master, you didn't notice that, but when that girl looks at people, she always looks at people with a peeping expression, lowering her head and rolling her eyes. Don't mention how petty she is. Young master, you have to wipe your face and eyes , don’t give up a dragon spit bead for a gloomy bead.”

Feng Yichen stared at Chifeng, and said: "After so many words, only the last sentence is reasonable. Can Gu Yanling compare with my Jiaojiao? There is not only a big difference between the two of them? Obviously there is no comparison, your son, even if I am blind, I still know who the person I should love and cherish is."

Hearing what the master said, Chi Feng felt relieved, patted his chest and said, "Young master is wise, and your subordinates were almost scared to death by you; but son, since you didn't take a fancy to that second girl, why did you think so of her?" Fascinated?"

"I'm not thinking about her, I'm analyzing her."

Feng Yichen leaned back, folded his hands on his chest, and said in a low voice: "Over the years, Hengguang courtyard has been watched by our people, from Gu Shen to the aunts in each room, they will all be the objects of our observation; But only her, Gu Yanling, became the caught fish, do you still remember why we didn't send anyone to watch her?"

Chi Feng immediately took over the words and said: "Subordinates naturally remember that when we studied the situation of Hengguang Yuan, we felt that although the two girls were from the Gu family, they were timid and cowardly since they were born because of their concubines, and they were also a I like people who live in simple places, so we excluded them from being the subject of observation. Over the past few years, it has been proved that our decision should not have been wrong. Young master, why did you suddenly ask this?"

Feng Yichen smiled: "I didn't realize until today, what a ridiculous mistake we made back then, the naive one, a poor rabbit would not make any waves, but I didn't expect that this rabbit When it grows up, it will bite people, and when others don't notice, it will make a deadly move by surprise."

Chi Feng immediately heard the deep meaning in the master's words, he put away the looseness on his face, and said with a serious expression: "Young Master, did you find something?"

Feng Yichen was not in a hurry to answer Chi Feng's question, but instead asked: "This time Jiaojiao is sick, who do you think is the most suspicious in the house?"

Chifeng's thoughts were led away by Feng Yichen invisibly, and he said: "Young master, do you suspect that the third girl's disease was contracted in the mansion? How is this possible? There has never been such a thing in the Gu mansion these years." patients with this disease."

"There is no such patient in Gu's residence, so is there no such patient in the capital?"

"Young master thinks that someone deliberately brought the pox to the mansion, and then harmed the third girl?"

Feng Yichen snapped his fingers, and rarely praised Chifeng: "It's not too stupid, just keep talking."

Chi Feng was encouraged, and immediately eager to try: "If the young master's conjecture is true, then someone wants to kill the third girl, and the person who wants to kill her is still a person in the mansion; I thought about it for a while, the third girl On weekdays, she has a good reputation in the mansion. Except for the second room, almost everyone in the mansion likes her very much; as for the second room, Gu Yanwen has already been sent away, and the Jiang family has been kicked out long ago. Impossible, as for Gu Yanxuan, he has an honest personality and would not resort to such vicious tricks. Since it wasn't them, the young master deliberately mentioned the second girl just now, could it be the second girl..."

Chi Feng felt that he had come into contact with the truth, but the truth was too shocking, he quickly covered his mouth, and looked in surprise at the master who always had a very calm expression.

Feng Yichen looked at Chifeng's movements and said, "Now, I can answer your question just now. You asked me what I found. In fact, I don't have any substantive evidence, but Gu Yanling sent us away in the morning. At that time, I noticed a little bit of her interesting thoughts."

"What do you think?"

"..." Feng Yichen turned his head in embarrassment, and then coughed lightly. He wanted to spare this question, but seeing Chifeng's expectant expression, he thought for a while, and finally decided to answer him. : "I found that Gu Yanling seems to like me very much."

"..." Chi Feng was not only startled, he felt as if he was frightened.

Who would have thought that the second girl, who was as timid as the little white rabbit, would actually stare at his master after her spring heart sprouted?You know, his master's aura is not something that anyone can bear to approach. I didn't expect that the second girl is really a master of arts and boldness. If you don't fall in love, it's so amazing!

Looking at Chi Feng's expression, Feng Yichen felt very embarrassed. Although he had made preparations before speaking, he did not expect that the preparations were not enough.

"Anyway, this Gu Yanling is very problematic, Chi Feng, when you turn around, send someone to watch Gu Yanling, it's best to investigate her every move during this period, but if you find anything unusual, ask our people to come and report it immediately. "

Chi Feng quickly put away his endless stream of thoughts, put on a very serious attitude, and replied: "Yes, my subordinates know."

However, after finishing his reply neatly, Chi Feng still kept staring at his master, obviously he still had something to say.

Feng Yichen felt that he had already talked enough with this guy today, so he didn't care to say a few more words to him, "Say what you want to say very quickly, don't put on a hesitant to speak here. look."

"Okay, since the son said so, then this subordinate should be bold, son, how did you judge that the second girl has something to do with the third girl's illness based on the mentality that the second girl might like you?"

Feng Yichen said: "Do you remember when Gu Yanling came to see us off, there was something strange about her attire?"

Chi Feng said truthfully: "Young master, my subordinates are not interested in the second girl, so naturally they won't notice her, so I really didn't pay attention to her clothes, so please tell me clearly."

Feng Yichen said: "Her clothes are not unusual, on the contrary, she is brightly dressed, and her face is full of red. It can be seen that she is in a very good state of mind recently; this is nothing weird at all, but if you pay close attention, you can find that her body Compared with other people who came to see them off, there is one thing missing."

"what?"

Feng Yichen looked at Chi Feng, and said, "A face towel used to cover the mouth and nose to prevent the infection of pox."

After being reminded by the master, Chi Feng seemed to have been enlightened by someone, and he suddenly understood: "Young master, what you mean is that she didn't sincerely send the third girl off at all, she came to show off. ; in order to show a scene of deep love with the third girl in front of everyone?!"
