Chapter 275
After waiting for Zijie to fall asleep, Gu Beiyu stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the cold moonlight outside, his brows slightly frowned.

Originally, he planned to take advantage of Liu Qingyi's opportunity to take him out tomorrow to expose her adulterous relationship with the third young master, but these two people didn't know how to live or die, and dared to hit him first, so it's no wonder he was cruel up!
After making up his mind, Gu Beiyu left Chang'an Garden, went straight to Liu Qingyi's Xuemei Residence, and used lightness kung fu to climb over the wall and enter.

There was a faint voice coming from the main room.

Sure enough!

The corner of Gu Beiyu's lips twitched, it seemed that he guessed right, the third young master and Liu Qingyi had already hooked up.

If he guessed in the right direction, then the third young master threatened Liu Qingyi to steal the atlas, and the bargaining chip for threatening her was naturally the relationship between the two of them that could not be exposed.

It's a pity that Liu Qingyi was too naive, thinking that if she successfully obtained the atlas, she would be able to draw a clear line with the third young master, but she didn't know it.

Pulling back his thoughts, Gu Beiyu took out a dozen fire pockets from his sleeve pocket, lit them and threw them directly around the room where Liu Qingyi was, and then disappeared into the night without leaving a trace, as if he had never Appeared in Xuemeiju.

Gu Beiyu didn't go back directly to Chang'an Garden, but went to the main courtyard again.

He looked hurriedly, "Patriarch, when I returned to the room just now, I found that the atlas was stolen. The thieves were heading towards Xuemeiju. Since it was Miss Liu's yard, I didn't dare to approach it. I hope the patriarch will make an idea."

Hearing that the atlas was stolen, the patriarch's face changed drastically, and he called Shang Lin, "Quick! Go to Xuemeiju!"

*
"on fire--"

A quarter of an hour later, there were hurried exclamations outside Liu Qingyi's room door.

"Get out, it's on fire!"

At this time, a slightly urgent voice came from outside.

"Ma'am, Patriarch, I heard from the maids that Miss Liu is still inside, hurry up and let someone go in to save her, otherwise she will be burned soon."

This voice is Gu Beiyu.

Liu Qingyi's eyes widened suddenly, and she instinctively looked at the third young master. She wanted to signal him to hide quickly, but the room was surrounded by fire, and now it was impossible to rush out, and it was not right to hide anywhere.

The third young master looked panicked, "What should I do?"

Liu Qingyi is just a weak woman, what can she do when encountering this kind of thing.

On the one hand, she was in danger of being swallowed by flames, and on the other hand, she was in danger of being found out about adultery. She bit her lip tightly, her mind was in a mess.

The third young master saw that this woman was useless, so he hurried over and roared, "Put on your clothes, I'll carry you out."

Liu Qingyi was startled, "How is this possible? If we go out like this, we will definitely be discovered."

The third young master frowned, "As long as you insist that I just rushed in to save the place when it was on fire, who would dare to doubt it?"

Liu Qingyi finally saw a glimmer of hope and nodded, "Okay."

So a moment later, the third young master really rushed out with Liu Qingyi in his arms.

Gu Beiyu, who was dealing with the patriarch and his wife, caught a glimpse of this scene from the corner of his eye, and curled his lower lip coldly. At the moment the third young master rushed out, he picked up a stone in the chaos and poured his internal strength into hitting the third young master's knee. go.

The third young master suffered from pain in his knees, his legs went limp and he couldn't stand still, he fell forward and threw Liu Qingyi to the ground, causing Liu Qingyi's clothes to be scattered.

This scene directly stimulated the eyes of the patriarch and Lin.

"what--"

Lin exclaimed, "My God, why is there a man in Qingyi's room!"

The patriarch was furious, and ordered the women, "Hurry up and bring those two shameless things to me!"

Four or five women with big arms and round waists immediately went to help Fanting and Liu Qingyi, and escorted them to the patriarch and his wife.

Seeing clearly that the man was the third young master Fanting, Lin couldn't help but slap him hard on the face, "Bastard! What did you do?"

Liu Qingyi shook her head desperately, "Ma'am, you misunderstood. When the fire broke out just now, the third young master happened to pass by here, and rushed into the flames to save me in a hurry."

Lin glanced at the mark on Liu Qingyi's neck, and sneered, "The third young master saved you in the sea of ​​fire, and you made a promise in the sea of ​​fire?"

Liu Qingyi was terrified, "No, ma'am, I am innocent, and the third young master and I have nothing."

Then tell me, what are these? "

"I..." Liu Qingyi was momentarily at a loss for words, and kept giving the third young master winks.

The third young master was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead, he kept explaining, "Mother misunderstood, I really just passed by to save Miss Liu's life, there is nothing wrong between me and her, and I have never done what my mother said. thing."

"Is it?"

Gu Beiyu stood up suddenly, his eyes condensed, "Since both of you are innocent, don't you think you are afraid of the physical examination?"

Liu Qingyi's heart sank, she looked at Gu Beiyu in despair, "Young Master, even you don't believe me?"

Gu Beiyu smiled, "Qingyi, of course I believe you, but the patriarch and wife may not believe it, so in order to refute the rumors and keep your innocence, it's better to let your mother-in-law test your body, lest you have to carry an infidelity in the future." marry me with an unclean reputation."

This is a slap in the face.

Liu Qingyi has already lost her virginity and the third young master. If the patriarch and wife still insist on letting her marry Gu Beiyu, then the entire Fan family will lose face, and the patriarch and wife who pointed out the marriage will become the laughing stock of the world.

The more Lin thought about it, the angrier she became, and she beckoned a woman, "Take Miss Liu down for a medical examination!"

The mothers-in-law were extremely strong, and they came together in groups of three or five, not allowing Liu Qingyi to resist, so they directly took her to a room in the side courtyard for a physical examination.

The two had just finished having sex, so a body check at this time would definitely reveal it at a glance.

The matter has come to this point, the third young master knew that he couldn't hide it, so after considering it left and right, he knelt down in front of the Lin family and the patriarch, begging bitterly, "Father, mother, I really like Qingyi, besides, we two agree, you two I also saw that she and I have... also asked the two elders to help each other."

It's good that the third young master didn't speak, but whenever he spoke, the patriarch's anger was aroused.

The patriarch stepped forward and kicked the third young master hard in the chest.

The third young master couldn't bear it, and fell directly to the ground after a muffled groan. He struggled to kneel up, hating Gu Beiyu in his heart.

Gu Beiyu must have done what happened tonight!
From Liu Qingyi's successful theft of the atlas to the subsequent fire in the yard, and then to the fact that the patriarch and his wife just rushed over at such a time, it must have been arranged by Gu Beiyu, otherwise such a coincidence would never have happened in this world!

The women who had just gone for the physical examination soon escorted Liu Qingyi over.

The leading mother-in-law reported: "Ma'am, Patriarch, Miss Liu did have sex just now."

This sentence directly sentenced Liu Qingyi to death.

Her whole body went limp, her eyes closed and she passed out.

Lin was extremely annoyed, and shouted, "Bring cold water, wake me up!"

The daughter-in-law who had always been optimistic had an affair with the concubine, which made the anger in her chest dissipate.

The women immediately fetched water and splashed it on Liu Qingyi's face.

"Cough...cough cough cough..." Liu Qingyi woke up quickly, opened her eyes and saw that Mrs. Lin and the patriarch were still there, immediately crawled over with a pale face and knelt down, crying: "Madam, you believe me, I really didn't do it voluntarily." , it was the third young master who forced me." Looking at the third young master who was kneeling beside him, Liu Qingyi shouted, "Third young master, you should hurry up and say something!"

At this moment, Fan Ting felt full of anger when he saw Liu Qingyi, a fool who had been plotted against. How could he admit that he forced her?

With a sneer, Fanting said: "Bitch, if you hadn't seduced me, would I have taken the initiative to come to your room?"

Liu Qingyi was stunned.

She looked up, saw Gu Beiyu's cold eyes filled with disdain and sarcasm, saw his wife Lin's fury, and also saw the patriarch's expression of wanting to kill.

Despair slowly overflowed from the bottom of her heart, and Liu Qingyi suddenly felt that her whole life was hopeless. She gave the third young master a hard look, and after gritting her teeth, she planned to kill her, saying, "Madam Mingcha, Patriarch Mingcha, all of this was ordered by the third young master .”

The patriarch frowned deeply, "What did the third child order you to do?"

Fan Ting sternly shouted, "Liu Qingyi, don't spout blood!"

"Hahaha!" Liu Qingyi laughed suddenly, "Do you think that now, for the sake of my so-called innocence, I will have to compromise and protect you unconditionally? Fanting, you are a beast that is not as good as a pig or a dog!"

Fanting was so angry that he wanted to hit Liu Qingyi with a slap.

But it was blocked by Gu Beiyu first.

Condescending, Gu Beiyu had condescending disdain in his eyes, "Why, the dog jumped the wall in a hurry, dare not let Miss Liu tell the truth?"

The third young master's wrist was tightly grasped, and Gu Beiyu's martial arts skills were high, he was no match at all, he could only clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, helpless.

The patriarch looked at Liu Qingyi, "Say! What did the third child order you to do?"

"The third young master is jealous that the young master can understand the weapon map." Liu Qingyi has calmed down, and now, she can only confess her crimes to the minimum.

"Yesterday after I came back from the main courtyard, the third young master sneaked into my courtyard and raped me. Afterwards, if I wanted to keep this relationship from being exposed, I would help him steal the map from the young master's hand. He would personally Destroy the map and plant it on the young master so that the young master will die without a place to bury him."

"You're talking nonsense!" Fan Ting stared wide-eyed, "It's clear that you, a bitch, are unwilling to be lonely if you don't get the young master's favor, so you stole the map to lure me!"

Liu Qingyi was expressionless. She didn't argue with the third young master. On the one hand, she knew she had committed a serious crime, and the more she argued, the more she would annoy the patriarch and his wife; on the other hand, in front of a bastard like the third young master, it was useless for her to argue. It is a fact that she has lost her innocence. At this time, even if she is justified, it is impossible for the wife to favor her.

"Where's the map?" The patriarch is most concerned about this question.

"Peerless Divine Soldier" is the bargaining chip for the Fan family to enter the world. Once there is any problem, their branch will never have the chance to be reused by the court, and the family will gradually die out.

The third young master touched his sleeves, but it was empty. He was startled, turned his head and looked at the sea of ​​flames that was slowly being extinguished, and said in a trembling voice: "The map, it fell into the room."

"Let me go in and find it!" The patriarch kicked him hard in the face this time, with an angry look like a mad lion.

With such a big fire, the probability of the map surviving is probably zero.

The patriarch could almost foresee the future fate of the branch of the Fan family, and the flames of anger in his eyes wished he could directly burn the third young master to ashes.

The third young master quickly got up and ran towards the pile of smoky ruins, digging inside with both hands.

The patriarch endured his overwhelming anger, and immediately ordered the guards in the outer courtyard to go in and look for it, "You must find the map for me!"

Nowadays, Liu Qingyi's affair with the third young master is already insignificant, and the whereabouts of the map is the most important thing related to the lifeblood of the family.

"Master." Lin looked at the patriarch helplessly, "What if I can't find the atlas!"

Gu Beiyu sneered silently.

Can't find it?

You can't find it.

The map has long been burned to ashes, even if a thousand people are sent in, it is impossible to find it.

This is what he wants.

The patriarch's face was ashen, and his old eyes were fixed on Fanting who was kneeling in the ruins and kept digging in, wishing he could cut him into pieces.

"With such a big fire, the atlas can't be kept." Gu Beiyu sighed faintly.

The patriarch's face became even uglier. From the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Liu Qingyi kneeling on the ground, and immediately became angry, and told the women, "Shut this shameless woman into the darkroom and wait for her to be dealt with!"

Liu Qingyi suddenly came back to her senses, looked at Gu Beiyu, "Young Master, save me...Young Master."

Gu Beiyu didn't even bother to vote for her, and looked in the direction of the ruins ahead.

Liu Qingyi's last glimmer of hope was dashed, unwillingly dragged by the wives into a dark room and locked up.

The third young master took a group of guards to plan for more than an hour, and finally found a fragment of the map at the bottom and showed it to the patriarch.

The patriarch took over the fragments, which were indeed the contents of "Peerless Divine Soldiers", which means that all the remaining maps were burned by the fire.

The anger could no longer be suppressed, and he suddenly raised his foot and said, "I let you be greedy for beauty! Now that you have lost all the treasures of the town, come, someone, drag it down and put it to death!"

The third young master hadn't recovered from the horrific pain in the patriarch's foot when he suddenly heard the order to be executed by Ling Chi. He trembled all over and kept begging for mercy, "Father, father, please forgive me. My son knows his mistake. After the son Never dare again!"

The hopes of the entire clan were defeated by his own selfish desires. Even if the clan leader wanted to cover up such a heinous crime, the clan would not let him go.

Lin's was full of hatred, Fan Ting, a bastard, just spoiled her chosen daughter-in-law, but he had the audacity to steal the map and set it on fire, he deserved to die.

Such a big event happened, and I couldn't hide it even if I wanted to. In the morning of the next day, the patriarch asked people to invite all the elders to the meeting hall, and told the story of the atlas being burned with a solemn expression.

As soon as the words fell, the elders panicked.

The branch of Van Clan is going downhill. If it doesn't think of a way to enter the world, it will eventually die out gradually.

This is a fact that everyone in the tribe knows.

Therefore, in order to strengthen the race, one must find a way to enter the world. Only by establishing a firm foundation in the court can the race gradually prosper.

And the basic bargaining chip for them to enter the world is the peerless magic weapon. As long as they can create this system of weapons as soon as possible to frighten the dynasty, no matter whether it is Xiqin or Dongli, they will definitely implement the policy of recruiting security. At that time, the initiative will be in the hands of Fanshi After all, which country to play for will definitely depend on the prices given by the two countries.

But now, the patriarch actually told them that the map was burned?

All the elders couldn't believe it.

"Yesterday, the young master directed the craftsmen to forge weapons in the weapon camp, why did the map be burned overnight?
"The map is a treasure related to the lifeline of the clan and the future trend. Without the map, how will the clan stand in the future?

"I hope the patriarch can give an explanation as soon as possible!"

……

The elders said something to each other, and they all took an extremely angry attitude towards the map, and asked the patriarch to give a reasonable explanation.

The patriarch's face was ashen, what could he say?
Could it be telling everyone that he raised a good son, was greedy for beauty and profit, didn't realize the importance of the map, stole it at will, and almost died in the sea of ​​fire as a result?

"The map has always been in the hands of the young master. Why was it suddenly stolen last night, and why did it appear in Miss Liu's yard? Young master, what do you have to explain about this matter?"

The elder's eyes quickly turned to Gu Beiyu again.

Gu Beiyu showed his innocence, "When the atlas was stolen last night, I was in the main courtyard to discuss matters with the patriarch, not to mention that you also said that the atlas is the bargaining chip for the Fan family to enter the world. How could I have expected that the third young master, my own family, would give birth Yixin to steal the map?"

When the elders heard that it was stolen by the third young master, they verbally criticized and even brought the patriarch, the real father, into it.

After the approval, the target was locked on Gu Beiyu.

"Since the atlas was lost from the young master, the young master is half responsible. Tell me, what should we do now?"

Gu Beiyu looked indifferent, "Elders, please listen to me."

The elders immediately fell silent.

Gu Beiyu said slowly: "Actually, it doesn't matter if the atlas is there or not."

The elders were in an uproar, "The young master has been here on Yanshui Island for three years, doesn't it mean he doesn't know the importance of maps to our clan?"

The patriarch also frowned slightly, feeling that what Gu Beiyu said was annoying.

Gu Beiyu chuckled, "What's on the map, even the great ones on the map, are all in my mind."

The elders are all petrified.

Hearing the meaning of the young master's words, in the past three years, he has already deeply remembered the things on the map?
Even the patriarch with an ugly face couldn't help being moved, "You...you memorized everything on the map?"

"Of course." Gu Beiyu said: "In the past three years, I have already memorized it by heart and understood it thoroughly, so even if I don't have the map, I still know which material should be used for which weapon, what is the ratio, and how to control the temperature of casting , and even within which range of weight control can exert the greatest effect of the weapon, and what is the hidden magical effect of each weapon, I know."

The elders were once again stunned by him.

What kind of memory is needed to remember so many things?

Gu Beiyu looked at everyone's reaction and curled his lips slightly.

They thought he had come to the island for the past three years?

In fact, he had read the atlas long before coming to Yanshui Island, and with three years of physical analysis, he knew it by heart.

The purpose of arranging such a good show last night was to bring out his amazing talent today to negotiate terms.

The patriarch squinted his old eyes, "Yu'er, do you really remember?"

"Of course I remember." Gu Beiyu smiled, "If the patriarch needs it, I can draw the first part of the weapon diagram right now, and I can also explain to you the casting, magic function and power of the weapon."

In order to prove his ability, Gu Beiyu immediately ordered someone to prepare a pen and ink, and drew the first part of the weapon picture in full view.

This time the elders have to believe it or not.

The shock in the patriarch's heart was beyond words, and his view of Gu Beiyu finally changed, "Then... can you redraw all the maps?"

"No!" This time, Gu Beiyu's face turned cold, "Unless you agree to my conditions."

The patriarch's face sank, "Do you still have conditions?"

Gu Beiyu sneered in his heart, if there were no conditions, why would he bother to memorize the map and arrange the big show so hard?
Pulling back his thoughts, he said: "Of course there are conditions. All the elders probably know that I have a wife in Xiqin, and she is still waiting for me to go back. I promised that I will only marry her in this life." , so I am sorry, I will not continue to be your heir, let alone marry your arranged fiancée, this is disloyal to my wife."

The patriarch yelled, "Fan Yu, do you know what you're talking about?"

Gu Beiyu smiled, "I know that I am the prince of the Gu family. I have a beautiful and virtuous princess who has been waiting for me at home. The three-year agreement between me and her has come, and I should go home."

This sentence is actually a disguised threat to the patriarch and all the elders. If you want to get the map again, you can, the condition is to let him go back to West Qin.

"This..." The elders looked at each other.

Since the young master has memorized all the content on the map, who can rest assured that he will go back like this?
Now, he alone bears the hopes of so many people to join the WTO!

"You want to leave?" The patriarch's voice was cold, "It's absolutely impossible!"

Gu Beiyu was fearless, and spread his hands, "Of course, you can continue to confine me, and you can even continue to torture me, but I will not reveal a word about the content on the map. Even if I die, I will I will also go to Huangquan Road with the map in my mind."

The patriarch squeezed the armrest of the seat, "You are a threat!"

Gu Beiyu was noncommittal, "Did you guys threaten me less at the beginning? Threatening me with my wife, threatening me with my children, today I threaten you, it's just a feng shui turn."

The patriarch was so angry that his chest heaved sharply, "Fan Yu, you are a descendant of the Fan family, the future heir!"

"I never admitted it." Gu Beiyu said: "I only know that I have a mother and concubine, and my father has passed away. As for you, to me, they are just passers-by I met accidentally."

The patriarch turned pale, "What did you say!"

Gu Beiyu's face suddenly became serious, "I said, if you still want the blueprints and detailed explanations, let me and my son go back to Xiqin, otherwise, we will die together. Anyway, I die alone, so many of you are buried with me, it's worth it!"

"You..." The patriarch shook his fingers, "Presumptuous!"

"It's been three years, and it's time for me to be presumptuous." Gu Beiyu looked serious, "I'm also a prince who grew up in intrigue since childhood. Do you really think I'm weak and easy to bully?"

The elders eyed each other and litigated.

Originally, the purpose of coming to the conference hall today was to discuss the burning of the atlas and the future plans of the clan, but the style of painting has changed, and now Gu Beiyu has taken the lead. Once they don't agree to let him go, Fanshi will have no chance to join the world .

The elders in the head weighed it from side to side, and finally put the overall situation first, and stood up and cupped their hands, "Patriarch think twice, since the young lord has made a request, then we should put the overall situation first, and the opportunity of Fanshi's entry into the WTO must not be missed. Once we miss the little emperor of Xiqin , the next emperor will not be a soft persimmon that can be handled casually."

Hearing what the elder said, Gu Beiyu understood in his heart that it turned out that Gu He was so kind to the little emperor because he wanted to discuss with him the conditions for Fanshi's entry into the WTO in the future. Will not refuse.

It seems that the branch of Fanshi has played a big game of chess in order to enter the WTO. It has already calculated everything and is waiting for the weapons to be released.

As soon as the elder's voice fell, several elders immediately echoed.

"Patriarch, let's wait for this opportunity for decades, and finally wait for an emperor who can control it. We must not miss this opportunity, otherwise it will be an eternal regret."

Of course, there are also those who disagree.

"Patriarch, the young master is rebellious, and he only wants to go back to West Qin, which proves that he doesn't regard himself as a member of my Fan clan. Such a person must have a different heart. Once he is released, it will be like letting the tiger go back to the mountain. He knows about Yanshui Island. If the soldiers come to the position, Fanshi will be in real crisis at that time."

"Hmph! What is letting the tiger go back to the mountain? Now the court is under the control of the regent king. If the regent king doesn't nod, even if the young master has a different heart, he can still give birth to soldiers and warships to Yanshui Island by himself?"

Opinions diverged, the elders were arguing, the patriarch rubbed his head with a headache, while Gu Beiyu remained indifferent and sat quietly.

He heard everything they said, but he didn't want to argue, because the map in his mind was the biggest bargaining chip, no matter how angry the patriarch was, he would not dare to gamble with him on this.

finally--

"enough!"

After a while, the patriarch slammed the table hard.

The noise of the elders stopped abruptly, and they all looked over here.

The patriarch's face was gloomy, "I took a look just now and saw that the majority of people are in favor of the young master's return to West Qin, so let him go back to the country with the overall situation in mind."

Gu Beiyu smiled faintly.

This result was already in his expectation.

"It's just." The patriarch changed the subject, "My confidant must send you back to the country."

"make a deal."

Gu Beiyu smiled, he only wanted to bring his son back to China to see Ying Er, and ignored the rest of the conditions.

"So, when are you going to give me the map?" the patriarch asked again.

Gu Beiyu said: "I'll give you one card a year."

The patriarch curled his fingers, "One per year?"

Gu Beiyu could see that he was very dissatisfied, "It's not that I underestimate the craftsmen on the island, but that the atlas created by the ancestors is too cumbersome, there are many casting processes, and the quality control must be strict, otherwise, if there is a problem in any link, all previous efforts will be wasted , In one year, it is already rare for you to be able to create a weapon as shown in the blueprint."

On this point, the patriarch had no doubts.

Before Gu Beiyu didn't come back, they relied on Gu He to explain the drawings. Gu He also said that the casting process of this rare weapon is quite strict, so it is extremely time-consuming.

The patriarch pursed his lips and thought for a moment, then finally sighed, "Okay, it's up to you."

*
After the conditions were negotiated, Gu Beiyu's heart, which had been hazy for three years, finally opened up.

Walking out of the conference hall, he felt that the sun outside was particularly bright.

Back to Chang'an Garden, I simply packed up my things.

Zi Jie sat on the couch and ate cloud cakes, watching his father busy, he tilted his head, "Daddy, what are you doing?"

Gu Beiyu turned around and smiled at him, "Little guy, we can go back to see your mother now."

After hearing this, Zijie opened his mouth wide open, as if he couldn't believe it, and after a while, he murmured, "Really?"

"Of course it's true." Gu Beiyu came over, took the Yunpian Cake, wiped his fleshy little hands, and said, "Come on, Daddy will bathe and change your clothes, you have to leave early tomorrow morning."

Zijie sat obediently in the bathtub, letting Gu Beiyu scrub his body, his heart was filled with unspeakable joy.

*
Because the third young master stole the atlas and caused a catastrophe, the patriarch ordered him to be lingering. As an accomplice, Liu Qingyi shamelessly seduced the third young master. He was originally sentenced to death, but Liu's father knelt in the patriarch's yard last night for the whole night. His own daughter begged for mercy, but the patriarch finally looked at Liu's father's face. Liu Qingyi's death penalty was inevitable, but her life was inevitable, so she was tortured into claustrophobia—hitting her abdomen with a wooden mallet so that her palace would fall off and she would not be able to have sex with a man for the rest of her life. a punishment.

These two news, Gu Beiyu heard the servants whispering when he was boarding the boat, he was not surprised at all, nor did he feel pity.

Liu Qingyi's success today is all due to her own fault.

Since he could remember, it was the first time Zijie saw such a big ship, and also the first time he saw such a blue sea. He stood on the deck holding Gu Beiyu's sleeve, feeling very excited.

Gu Beiyu knew what the little guy was thinking, "My dear son, if you miss your mother, put your hands around your mouth to make a trumpet shape, and then yell toward the sea."

Zijie seemed to understand but didn't understand, and he couldn't understand Gu Beiyu's meaning for a long time.

Seeing his clumsy movements, Gu Beiyu bent down and taught him.

After Zixue learned it, he shouted to the sea, "Mother, Zixue is back—"

*
Jinling, the palace of the virtuous king.

"Princess, Mrs. Ye has come to see you."

The maid whispered in Su Ying's ear.

Su Ying, who was sitting blankly in front of the bronze mirror, slowly came to her senses, "Oh, it's the third sister who is here!"

Seeing her like this, the servant girl sighed helplessly in her heart, and said: "Well, Mrs. Ye is in the front hall, Wangfei, I will send you a hairpin, I will go out to see her in a while."

Su Ying only gave a faint "Oh" and said nothing more.

The maid moved neatly, and after a while, she tied up her hair and put on a hair ornament.

Su Ying walked slowly to the front hall.

Seeing that she was thinner than before, Su Ruoyu couldn't help feeling a pain in her heart, she stood up and went to meet her, "Fourth sister."

"Why did the third sister come here?" Su Ying had no expression on her face, her brows and eyes were haggard.

"I have nothing to do today, and I want to come and see you." Su Ruoyu didn't dare to tell her that she was just found out to be pregnant, for fear that Su Ying would bring up a sad memory.

Su Ying reasoned out what the maidservants had been nagging in her ears these days, and she figured out something, "I heard that Mrs. Uncle personally went to Biezhuang to invite Third Sister and Fourth Master Ye back to the mansion, is this true? "

Su Ruoyu nodded, "Well, it's true."

"That's great." Su Ying finally showed a smile, and pulled Su Ruoyu's hands excitedly, "I knew that the third sister would have a day when all her hardships will be rewarded." After a pause, "Then, Mrs. Uncle treats you..."

Su Ruoyu smiled and said: "It's been so many years, the little grievances between me and my mother-in-law have long since dissipated. After all, I am the daughter-in-law of her own son. I can't do anything to make my husband caught in the middle, right?"

"That's true." Su Ying sighed, "I really envy you, Fourth Master Ye is well-known throughout Jinling City for his kindness to you. , since that night when I learned that I gave birth to a dead baby, my mother-in-law never went out of the palace to see me once. During that time, if my mother and cousin Jingse hadn’t come to Xianwang’s mansion to accompany me, I thought, I probably won’t be able to make it through that pass, and maybe I’ll just follow the child.”

"Oh, you silly girl." Su Ruoyu nodded her head with a smile, "Didn't my cousin say that His Royal Highness the Xian Wang is still alive and well, but he is entangled in mundane matters, and he will come back after he is done."

Su Ying also knew that Jing Se would not lie to her, but every night she dreamed that His Royal Highness came back, and finally had a reunion dinner with him, and woke up from the dream again, the bedside was empty, and there was still no sign of that person, so lonely, she was afraid of herself Can't stand how much.

Su Ruoyu saw the desolation and desolation around her, and hurriedly said: "Fourth sister, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and the market outside is very lively, let's go out for a stroll. Said that this year's Mid-Autumn Festival will not enter the palace to accompany those elders, go to our house, I will cook for you by myself."

Su Ying was not interested and shook her head, "No, I don't want to go anywhere."

Su Ruoyu had no choice but to say, "Fourth sister, if you keep yourself in the room all day like this, you will get bored, go out and relax!"

Su Ying still shook her head, "Third Sister, I'm really not in the mood. Seeing the hustle and bustle outside, I will feel that I am living outside of those hustle and bustle, and I will feel that I am lonely, so don't force me."

Hearing these words, Su Ruoyu wanted to cry.

She hugged Su Ying suddenly, her voice choked up, "Okay, I won't force you, if you don't want to go, I'll just talk to you here, okay?"

Su Ying nodded with tears in her eyes.

With the little episode just now, Su Ruoyu didn't dare to poke at Su Ying's innermost feelings, so she told some interesting things that happened outside to make Su Ying laugh.

In fact, Su Ying didn't want to listen to those things, but she knew that it was not easy for the third sister to come here, so she smiled cooperatively.

Su Ruoyu said: "Look, what a beautiful and wonderful person, with a sad face all day long, almost turning herself into a yellow-faced woman, you look the best when you smile, you have to smile more, or your mother will know , will be sad."

Su Ying touched the corner of her lips, she also wanted to be as happy as others every day.

But no matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't do it.

"Third Sister." Su Ying suddenly thought of something and pulled back her thoughts, "I haven't been back to the Duke of Jin's mansion for three and a half years, why don't you go with me today, okay?"

"Are you really willing to go out for a walk?" Su Ruoyu's eyes lit up instantly.

"Well." Su Ying said: "My sadness is my own, and I can't infect my natal family, lest they worry about me all day long."

Su Ruoyu nodded happily, "Okay, as long as you want, I can accompany you anytime."

Reluctantly cheering up, Su Ying asked someone to prepare, and the two sisters got into the carriage and went to the Duke of Jin's mansion.

In the past three years, because of Su Ying's matter, her biological mother Ning has worked a lot, and she has obviously aged a lot.

When the carriage stopped, Su Ying raised the curtain and saw her mother standing outside the door waiting, her eyes blurred for a moment, she ran over and threw herself into Ning's arms regardless, "Mother—"

"Good girl, I'm finally willing to come back!" Ning's eyes were moist, and she patted Su Ying's back lightly.

"Well, my daughter is back to see you." Su Ying's tears wet the front of Ning's chest.

Ning's heart was blocked, "I originally discussed with your grandmother this morning to visit you in Prince Xian's mansion in the next two days, but I didn't expect you to come back by yourself."

Su Ying slowly let go of Ning, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, "It's my daughter who is unfilial. She has been immersed in grief for the past three years and can't get out, ignoring the feelings of her mother's family."

Hearing these words, Ning's heart felt unspeakably warm, and she stroked Su Ying's hair, "My dear daughter has grown up."

"Fourth sister has always been very mature." Su Ruoyu, who got off the carriage, answered with a smile.

When she got closer, she turned to Ning Shifu, "Ruoyu has met Third Aunt."

Ning was a little surprised, "You two sisters came back together?"

Su Ying said "Yes", "Third Sister went to see me in Prince Xian's Mansion and advised me to come out and walk around. I didn't want to go to the market, so I simply went back to my mother's house."

Ning glanced at Su Ruoyu gratefully, "Third girl, it's thanks to you for persuading her, otherwise, this girl might have to lock herself in the mansion for a long time!"

Su Ruoyu smiled and said: "Third aunt is being polite. Although my fourth sister and I are cousins, in my heart, she is my own sister. If she is unhappy, I will naturally not be happy. Doing these things is just a little effort. Both for her and for myself."

Ning was a little surprised, "I didn't expect some willful little girls to grow into adults. This little mouth is sweet."

Su Ruoyu lowered her head in embarrassment, "Third Aunt, I've been married for so many years, if I don't grow up, it will be a joke."

While the three of them were joking, they followed the maid who led the way into the gate and went to Wanqing Garden to meet the Duke's wife.

The Duke's Madam took pity on Su Ying, and left her in Wanqing Garden to talk about herself all afternoon before letting her go back to Prince Xian's Mansion.

*
The day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Su Ying planned to go to the palace to say that this year's Mid-Autumn Festival reunion night will still be spent in the mansion by herself, as in the previous three years without entering the palace.

Halfway through the carriage, Su Ying heard the crowd outside getting lively. She lifted the curtain and saw a lot of dandelions floating outside, which was extremely beautiful.

How can there be dandelions again this season?
Su Ying was curious and asked the coachman to stop. She got out of the carriage and looked up. It seemed that there was a dandelion rain outside. Su Ying reached out to take it in her palm and blew gently, whispering, "It's so beautiful!"

Suddenly there was a soft little hand holding her, and the voice was sweet and glutinous, "Mother, mother, is the dandelion beautiful?"
