You Qi ran very far away from Nantian Village. She only felt relieved when she got on the boat dozens of miles away from the village. She asked for a spacious cabin from the boatman, took off her shoes, and massaged her palm-sized feet on the bed. "Alas, I'm such a weak and beautiful woman who can't even take care of herself. I didn't even have a sedan to carry me. I should have prepared it in advance."
As she said this, she raised her slender finger and looked at the white jade Qian Kun ring on her finger. She smiled and said to herself, "This time, the sucker is really a wine bag. It's said that the people of the human world are stupid and rich. It's really true."
"Who?" She suddenly became alert. She looked up and her pretty face was filled with shock. She quickly shrank to the corner of the bed and said with a pale face, "Who, who are you?"
She saw a man wrapped in a gray cloak. He was like a big bat, tightly clinging to the ceiling of the cabin. Only his eyes were exposed. His pupils had a green fire. In the fire, there were ferocious and evil souls imprisoned. If one looked closely, the number was enough to make one's scalp go numb.
You Qi's back seemed to be injected with ice. She suddenly straightened. "You, you are a disciple who has lost his mind?"
"Humph." The man made a sound without a trace of emotion, admitting it.
You Qi's expression changed. She said, "Why are you looking for me?"
"The Demon Monarch wants to see you." The man said.
You Qi's pupils shrank. She smiled charmingly. "How can this servant be worthy of the Demon Monarch's summons? It's better not to meet him."
"You dare to disobey?" The man said.
"No, how can this servant dare." You Qi smiled charmingly. She suddenly raised her hand and sprinkled a handful of powder. It turned into a dense cold star that shot towards the man. She took the opportunity to jump out of the window.
She didn't know how long she had been running with the current, but when she didn't feel that someone was chasing after her, she went back to the shore dripping wet and looked around. When she didn't find the man's figure, she heaved a sigh of relief and said angrily, "I only tricked some demons, why would I alarm that temperamental tyrant? Someone must have told on me. Don't let me know who it is, otherwise … Hey, hey, hey …"
Before she could finish her words, her neck was mercilessly grabbed and lifted. She kicked her feet and struggled in the air. "Let me go, let me go, hurry up and let me go. I'm telling you, the Demon Monarch must have taken a fancy to my beauty. If you dare to be disrespectful again, when I become the Demon Monarch, I'll throw you into prison and never let you reincarnate!"
"Jie Jie Jie …" The man let out an evil laugh, "Wait till you become one."
…
After Gu Tingwei and the Golden Hook Bandits left, the Nantian Estate became quiet. In the manor, it was as if they were celebrating the new year. Everyone was overjoyed. In comparison, Dao Ba's face was pale. The other Golden Hook Bandits had already escaped, leaving him alone. His heart was in a mess, not knowing how that Yan Shifang was going to deal with him.
"Young Master, you scared me just now." Li Xiang Jun picked up the tea from the servant's tray and handed it to Yan Shiyi first, then handed the remaining cup to Yan Li.
"Is it that scary?" Yan Li took it but didn't drink it. He put it aside and said in surprise, "I can't remember it myself."
"His face is as green as iron, and his eyes are filled with killing intent, as if he wants to kill someone." Li Xiang Jun said.
"Isn't it normal for the boss to kill someone?" Huang Shaoyu said.
"That's different." Li Xiang Jun smiled.
"If you hate someone, you can't wait to crush his bones and scatter his ashes."
Huang Shaoyu seemed to understand and said, "Anyway, the boss is angry, I can see it. Boss, why are you keeping this guy on the ground? Why don't we teach him a lesson and send him away. "
Yan Li ordered, "You and Zhao Ting take him to the yamen. On the way, spend some money to hire local ruffians to spread the news, say that Swallow's Dock saw injustice, defeated the Golden Hook Bandits, and took back Southern Field Manor. Let them talk about it, make it known to everyone."
"Yes." The two received the order and left.
Li Xiang Jun said, "Young Master, I know you want to create a good reputation for Swallow's Dock, but in this way, the Golden Hook Bandits will be at fault. Won't you let that disgusting guy get away with it?"
Yan Li said, "I promised Luo Shuang He that I will do this beautifully. This is the best result. "
Li Xiang Jun was extremely intelligent and understood immediately. She nodded her head and said, "Then what about this manor? How about I stay here and take care of it first? Hall Master Gu's birthday banquet is in these two days. I'm afraid that Sister Luo will not be able to spare any time."
"Alright," Yan Li nodded, "I will give Zhao Ting to you. He is capable, and I have investigated his background. Use him as you see fit, but don't rely on him too much."
"Don't worry, Young Master, I have remembered it all." Li Xiang Jun said softly, "You and First Mister must be careful when you go to Phoenix Hall. I guess that Gu Tingwei will definitely stir up trouble."
…
Luo Shuang He opened the letter and read it. She could not help but be happy. She shouted to Gu Caiwei who was sitting in front of the dressing table, "Second Young Lady, Second Young Lady, you will definitely not be able to guess the contents of this letter!"
Gu Caiwei pinned an exquisite hairpin on her hair and looked left and right. She giggled and said, "Look at jiejie's happy expression. Could it be that the Langjun you like has sent a letter?"
"Second Young Lady, don't talk nonsense. I have sworn that I will serve Hall Master for the rest of my life to repay his kindness." Luo Shuang He smiled slightly, "But Second Young Lady, I have never seen you dress up in a bun. Why are you so attentive today? Could it be that you are showing it to your sweetheart?"
Gu Caiwei took a brush and drew her eyebrows carefully. Her movements could not be considered skilled, but they were not very rusty either. "What are you talking about? Today is great-grandmother's birthday. If I don't dress up properly, wouldn't I be embarrassing her? Alright, you are especially long-winded today. Hurry up and tell me the contents of the letter. If it is not about me, you do not have to tell me. "
"It is news from Southern Fields Manor." Luo Shuang He smiled.
"Southern Fields Manor?" Gu Caiwei paused. A hint of green flashed in her beautiful eyes. She continued to draw and said lightly, "Didn't I tell you? The manor was borrowed by my fourth uncle. Don't mention it again."
"I got it back," Luo Shuang He said.
"What?" Gu Caiwei turned to look at Luo Shuang He and frowned, "What happened?"
Luo Shuang He told her what had happened.
"You are simply making trouble!" Gu Caiwei's expression darkened.
Luo Shuang He slowly knelt down. She lowered her head and said, "Second Young Lady, I have overstepped my bounds. However, Southern Fields Manor is the only thing your mother left for you. It cannot fall into the hands of others. If you want to punish me or punish me, I will do it!"
"How old are you? How can you be so muddled?" Gu Caiwei put down her brush heavily. She raised her eyebrows that were halfway drawn. "You should know better than me what kind of person my fourth uncle is. If you let Yan Li seize the manor, wouldn't that be a good excuse to frame him?"
"Young Master Yan has taken over the Lulin people. His power is like the sun in the sky. Robbing the manor is a small matter," Luo Shuang He said calmly.
"Do you really not know or are you pretending not to know?" Gu Caiwei was rarely annoyed. "Yanshan Robber has retired and turned to a legitimate business. If the news of him robbing the manor gets out, who would dare to do business with Swallow Dock? If someone with ulterior motives were to make a fuss about it, you might think it's a small matter, but it's a huge disaster to him! "
Luo Shuang He smiled and said, "Second Young Lady, you are exaggerating. Fourth Master colluded with the Golden Hook Bandits first. No matter where he goes, he will not be able to explain himself."
"With their ability, there is a lot to make a fuss about. The first branch has joined hands. If something happens, my sister …" Gu Caiwei paused. "Gu Qingyou's situation will be even more difficult. Don't you know that?"
"But the one who will be wronged is you, Second Young Lady." Luo Shuang He said.
Gu Caiwei stood up and pulled out Luo Shuang He's hairpin from her hair. She threw it on the dressing table and said coldly, "Are you doing this for me or for your own peace of mind?"
"I only want Second Young Lady to be well." Luo Shuang He was not afraid. She said calmly, "Eldest Young Lady naturally has the means to deal with them. If the man that Second Young Lady likes can't even solve this kind of crisis, how can he protect Second Young Lady from wind and rain? "
"What do you know! There is already someone in his heart. He loves her to the bone and can't get rid of her. Besides … "Gu Caiwei turned his face away." If he loves them so much, no one can bear to break it. "
Luo Shuang He said, "It's nothing. It's normal for a man to have three or four wives. If he can protect his wife and children from harm and grievance, it's good. As long as he treats Second Young Lady well, it doesn't matter if he has a few sisters. "
"What do you know about me?" Gu Caiwei said angrily, "No one wants me. Do I need you to find a man for me? Let me tell you, my man, Gu Caiwei, can only love me in this life. If he is distracted and he loves me, no matter how much I miss him, I will never see him! "
Luo Shuang He opened her mouth and wanted to say something. A maid hurriedly came in from outside and said anxiously, "It's bad. Fourth Master was injured. He was carried to Miaofang Courtyard for treatment for a long time, but he didn't recover. Deputy Palace Master asked me to ask Second Young Lady to find the guests today and see if there are any disciples of Longxiang Mountain to treat Fourth Master."
"Impossible, this letter says …"
"Impossible, what's impossible!" Gu Caiwei directly interrupted her and said, "Go find Su Xingyu quickly. Tell him that I asked him to come to Miaofang Courtyard to treat my Fourth Uncle." After saying that, she hurriedly left with the maid.
As long as it was Gu Caiwei's request, Su Xingyu would agree. Moreover, treating the sick was his duty.
As soon as he entered the room, he drove everyone out. Among these people were Gu Family's eldest son, Gu Tingkun, second son, Gu Tingyu, several younger sisters, and Gu Tingwei's family members. Plus the servants, they crowded into the courtyard.
Gu Caiwei stood under the eaves of the door, looking very quiet.
Opposite her stood a beautiful woman. Her eyebrows and eyes were of the same origin as hers. Her outline was also excellent. She was a beauty with good looks. However, she was a little old, and the bags under her eyes were a little loose. It seemed that she was not that energetic. In her listless eyes, there was a hint of disgust. She looked at Gu Caiwei's face and said indifferently, "It's good that Second Young Lady didn't come back. As soon as she came back, something happened. I heard that the one who injured Fourth Elder Brother is a newly risen genius swordsman called Yan Shifang. After becoming the new master of two roads in Jiangbei, he is so arrogant that he even dares to provoke Phoenix Hall. "
