Chapter 33 How do you know I didn’t guess right?
Qin Shuangjiang was thinking about the letter, and the needle and thread in his hand slowly passed through the embroidery cloth in front of him. Without warning, the sharp piece pierced into the fingertips. The pain came suddenly, and the unprepared Qin Shuangjiang instinctively shrank. returned the finger.

Bai Kou, who heard the noise from the side, hurriedly stepped forward to check: "Madam, is it okay?"

Seeing the blood oozing out from his fingertips, Qin Shuangjiang calmly touched his palms, then shook his head: "It's okay." He put the needle and thread in his hands aside, stood up, walked to the table and sat down.

Seemingly sensing Qin Shuangjiang's absent-mindedness, Bai Kou took the initiative and suggested: "The sun is nice today, why don't I accompany my wife for a walk in the garden? Being bored in the house all the time is not good for your health."

As she spoke, she poured a cup of tea and handed it to Qin Shuangjiang. Qin Shuangjiang didn't say anything. He just raised his hand to hold the cup. He looked up out of the window thoughtfully and asked her, "Is your Excellency still very busy recently?"

Hearing this, Bai Kou pondered for a moment, and then replied thoughtfully: "It's better than before, but I won't be back tonight. Early this morning, the father-in-law in charge of the palace came to summon him personally. I guess it was Matters related to His Majesty."

Hearing this, Qin Shuangjiang handed the cup to his mouth for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at her again and confirmed: "You won't be back tonight?"

Bai Kou was wiping the vase beside her. When she heard Qin Shuangjiang's slightly happy tone, she subconsciously stopped what she was doing and turned to look at Qin Shuangjiang, her eyes filled with doubts and unfounded joy.

Catching her gaze, Qin Shuangjiang reacted suddenly. She quickly adjusted her tone and expression, put down the tea cup in her hand, stood up and said, "It's nothing, let's go out for a walk."

Although Bai Kou felt strange, she didn't ask anything, so she put down her work and walked out of the yard with Qin Shuangjiang.

Spring has just begun, and the flowers and plants in the garden are growing well. The maids and servants are going back and forth, lowering their heads to do their work. They only nod when they pass by Qin Shuangjiang.

After leaving the small courtyard, not far away, I saw a girl not far away holding a fan, bending down and fluttering the butterflies that landed on the azaleas. Her figure was soft and playful with a hint of agility. She was wearing a gentle pale pink dress. Like a fairy from heaven who first entered the mortal world.

Qin Shuangjiang stood not far away, with no intention of getting closer. He just watched her drop the fan in her hand with an indifferent expression, but the butterfly was frightened and flew away.

Yan Yunxiang looked at the butterfly flying away with some despair. When she looked back, she noticed Qin Shuangjiang. Without any hesitation, she held up her skirt and ran towards Qin Shuangjiang with a smile.

Beside him, Bai Koufu greeted him: "Miss."

Yan Yunxiang smiled and nodded at her, then turned to look at Qin Shuangjiang: "Why do you want to go out for a walk today, sister?"

No wonder Yan Yunxiang asked this, Qin Shuangjiang really didn't like going out, let alone walking around. Apart from going to Yan Xu'an's study and bedroom, he usually had nothing else to do and basically didn't go out.

Qin Shuang lowered her eyes and did not immediately respond. She only turned to look at Bai Kou and said, "Miss and I will talk alone."

"Yes." Bai Kou nodded in greeting and turned to leave.

Seeing her sending the person away, Yan Yunxiang took a long time to stop looking at Bai Kou's back, and the smile in her eyes when she looked at Qin Shuangjiang was a little less.

Neither of them said anything else. Qin Shuangjiang walked to the pavilion in the garden, and Yan Yunxiang followed.

After a moment of silence, the servants on the side poured tea for the two of them and then left. Yan Yunxiang put the fan in her hand on the table and asked first: "What? Didn't sister come to enjoy the flowers and take a walk, but came to me to start a fight?" Asking for guilt?"

Qin Shuangjiang didn't deny it, but he didn't admit it either. He just asked her, "Where did you get your antidote?"

Obviously she didn't expect Qin Shuangjiang to mention the antidote for Chi Dan Gu. Yan Yunxiang thought for a moment, and then she responded: "I told you, I can't say it, otherwise the master will be angry." Qin Shuangjiang was not angry, but felt strange. In the past, she had always thought that she was from Cao Sheng or the Duke's Mansion, but at the lantern festival that day, her attitude towards Qin Jiangchu and Qin Zhiyun did not seem to be the same. It's like we know each other.

As for Cao Sheng, he is a completely reckless man who can't hold his temper. Otherwise, on the day of the reception banquet, he wouldn't have been so anxious to humiliate her and beat Yan Xu'an just because she was brought by Yan Xu'an. s face.

He knew clearly that Yan Xu'an was there. How could someone as scheming as Yan Xu'an allow Zhao Ziyu's wedding banquet to be held in a place without his eyes?
Therefore, she was able to rush out to seek shelter at the right time when Yan Xuan came in.

Until this morning, when Bai Kou handed her the letter she accidentally discovered, the first person she suspected subconsciously became Yan Yunxiang.

Except for her, no one seems to be able to send the letter in so easily, but if she is really Qin Tianyou's person, and she wants to learn the snake and scorpion needle, she can just ask Qin Tianyou, why bother her?
Qin Shuangjiang was thinking without saying a word, but Yan Yunxiang seemed to have read through her thoughts. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, her eyebrows were curved in a smile, her hands were dragging her chin, and she stared at Qin Shuangjiang with a smile for a long time before saying : "Sister, there's no need to guess. Although I can't tell her the answer, I can be sure that the answers in my mind are all wrong."

Hearing this, Qin Shuangjiang's expression was inappropriate, and there was some playfulness in his eyes. He just asked her: "Oh? How do you know I didn't guess right?"

Yan Yunxiang was silent for a moment, then picked up the teacup on the table and shook it gently, and replied slowly and logically: "I am neither Qin Shuyan, Cao Sheng, Qin Tianyou, or Yan Xu'an."

Qin Shuangjiang didn't say anything, and his probing eyes fell on her face for a long time. Yan Yunxiang did not dodge, and looked confident as if Qin Shuangjiang could never guess it.

Their eyes met for a long time before Qin Shuangjiang looked away and took a sip of tea from the teacup in his hand. Yan Yunxiang couldn't help but inquire: "However, I am quite curious. My sister suddenly wants to know the person behind me. Did something happen?"

Hearing this, Qin Shuangjiang raised his eyes, met her eyes again, and gently curled his lips: "Is it sudden? But I have always wanted to know. If you ask this, do you really know something?"

"..." This time, Yan Yunxiang was silent.

She could indeed feel that Qin Shuangjiang took the initiative to find her, and it must not be a whim. After all, he only tested it in the side hall of Yingshui Hall last night, and he never found out the reason.

But in one night, she came again. Although it seemed that she came here accidentally, in fact, Yan Yunxiang knew very well that Qin Shuangjiang came to see her.

Therefore, something must have happened in this short night that made Qin Shuangjiang eager to come to her for verification.

But the conversation had come to an end, and obviously no one got the answer they wanted. After a short silence, Yan Yunxiang stood up, took the round fan on the table, and said: "Forget it, since sister doesn't want to talk, then I won't ask. Yes."

As she said that, she turned around and left, leaving only one sentence: "Sister, drink slowly. I'm tired, so I'll go back and rest first."

Watching her leave with the fan, Qin Shuangjiang turned around and her eyes fell on the tea cup in her hand. Her intuition told her that the person who sent the letter was not Yan Yunxiang...

into the night.

The night was cool and dark, and it was silent. Only the patrolling guards were walking back and forth in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Bai Kou waited for Qin Shuangjiang to wash up, and then blew out the lamp before carefully going out. He heard the sound of the door being closed. After waiting for a while, Qin Shuangjiang sat up from the bed, put on his night clothes, and avoided the guests of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The secret guard left the Prime Minister's Mansion.

At the end of the deserted and deserted street, the wind was blowing, the houses that had long been uninhabited were somewhat dilapidated, and there was a sense of deathly silence everywhere.
