Chapter 54: Spying

Yu Mingzhi stood on the bridge and looked into the distance, two men about fifty years old walked through the verandah and went to the courtyard in the depths. She recognized one of them, it was Li Wangshan!

Sure enough, Zhao Zhong planned to take advantage of the large number of people on his birthday to take advantage of the chaos to connect with Liwangshan.

If she acted rashly, would the Zhao family have an excuse to catch her and then threaten Qin Ji?

Yu Mingzhi clenched the railing of the bridge, watching the two figures disappear behind the bamboo forest, and there was a trace of unwillingness in his heart.

She glanced at the sneaky maid behind the tree at the head of the bridge, and suddenly raised her feet and walked back. There was no place to hide except for the tree, and the maid did not expect her to turn back, and there was no other place to hide for a while, so she could only stay where she was.

Yu Mingzhi didn't look at her again, but pretended to joke with Yang Run.

"Although the young lady of the Zhao family is not good, this scene is very beautiful. Yang Run sighed, just about to reach out to grab Yu Mingzhi's arm, not wanting her arm to slip through his hand, "...... Sister Baozhi!"

She screamed and jumped up to grab Yu Mingzhi, but her fingers were off and she could only watch her slip and fall on the bridge.

Yu Mingzhi lay on the ground, his eyes closed, and let Yang Run call silently.

"Why don't you come over and help Sister Baozhi up?!" Yang Run pointed to the maid behind the tree and shouted.

The maid trembled, looked around, and then pretended to come forward naturally, "Two young ladies, what's wrong?"

Zhu'er said, "Quickly carry the young lady to the house." ”

In a panic, the maid nodded again and again when she heard this, helped to pick up Yu Mingzhi, and took them to a nearby pavilion to rest temporarily. Yang Run thought that Yu Mingzhi had really had an accident, and kept calling "Sister Baozhi" all the way, and he was anxious to shed tears.

When everyone came to a "Listening to Yuxuan", Zhu'er looked at the maid who was busy taking off her shoes and covering the quilt for Yu Mingzhi, gently closed the door, and then stepped forward quickly, and a fast and ruthless knife hit the back of the maid's neck.

The maid snorted lightly, and when she fell on Yu Mingzhi's body, she was grabbed by Zhu'er and thrown aside.

Yang Run hiccuped in fright, "This is ......"

"Sister Run'er. Yu Mingzhi, who was still unconscious just now, sat up and looked at her with a smile.

"Sister Baozhi!" Yang Run didn't have time to wipe away the tears hanging from the corners of his eyes, and hugged her happily, "You scared me to death." ”

Yu Mingzhi glanced at Zhu'er and comforted her softly: "I slipped just now, I was a little dizzy, and now it's fine, so Sister Run'er is worried, my sister is really embarrassed." ”

Yang Run said: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay." But......" she glared at the fainting maid, "why did you knock her out?"

Zhu'er said: "Miss, Miss Yang, according to what the slave maid saw, this maid has been sneaking behind us, thinking that someone from the Zhao family sent to spy on us, after all, our young lady is the fiancΓ©e of Qin Sheren......"

"Huh?" Yang Run was surprised, "It's really strange in the Zhao family today. Pearl, are you really right?"

Zhu'er smiled: "No." ”

Yang Run said worriedly: "The Zhao family is so guarded, what are we?" Sister Baozhi is the fiancΓ©e of Qin Sheren, so she should be a great guest. But what now, what are we going to say if the maid wakes up?"

Zhu'er said: "Miss Yang, don't worry, the slave will help you deal with it." The two young ladies can play here with peace of mind, right?"

Yang Run twisted his shoulders a few times, looking unhappy, "I think, let's find an excuse to go home, anyway, we can't play with Miss Zhao, it's better to go home to eat, drink and have fun." ”

Yu Mingzhi shook his head, "We are here as guests, how can we go back so quickly, wouldn't it be a loss of face for the old lady?"

Zhu'er said: "The slave maid sees that the environment here is good, the two young ladies might as well sit here, and the slave maid will bring you some snacks, water and wine." I'll go back after the dinner in the evening, okay?"

Yang Run looked at Yu Mingzhi and had no choice but to nod, "That's the only way." ”

Zhu'er held Yu Mingzhi's hand, shook her head slightly, tied the maid neatly, stuffed it into the cabinet, and then went out.

Yu Mingzhi steadied his mind and pulled Yang Run to sit on the couch and talk, "Don't be angry, what do you see that?" she pointed to the window.

Yang Run's eyes lit up, it was a pair of guqin, she hurriedly stepped forward to check, her palm gently stroked the strings, looked left and right, reluctant to blink, "This is a master's handwriting, my family's best piano is not worth mentioning in front of this pair, if it ...... Wouldn't it be nice if I could play it?"

Yu Mingzhi glanced out from the crack in the window, the willows were still clinging, the breeze was thin, and the sound of laughter and silk bamboo singing came from a distant place. Although this maid followed closely, she panicked when she really encountered something, and took them to a remote courtyard, but she ended up quiet.

It's a pity that I don't know if Zhu'er went to find out the news, whether she was safe, and whether she heard what conspiracy Zhao Zhong and Li Wangshan were planning.

Yang Run couldn't sit still, sat behind the piano stand, first gently hooked a string with his index finger, then closed his eyes and listened to the faint sound of the piano, couldn't help but sigh again, and then couldn't care about anything else, and began to play the piano.

The melodious and graceful tunes she plays, which are heart-warming.

Yu Mingzhi calmed down and listened to her play the piano.

Not long after, the door was knocked open, and a woman dressed as a housekeeper's mother walked in, looked at them vigilantly, and asked politely, "Dare to ask which young lady are the two?"

Yang Run was startled, and hurriedly got up and stayed away from the qin, "We are the young lady of Yang Lezheng's family in Taichang Temple." ”

The housekeeper's mother said "oh", "The piano was put here by the lady for the family to play." Miss doesn't need to be nervous, the slave doesn't disturb the two young ladies' Yaxing. With that, she exited the house.

"Huh?" Yang Run's eyes widened and he looked at Yu Mingzhi happily, "Does she mean I can play the piano?"

Yu Mingzhi smiled and nodded.

Yang Run cheered and sat down behind the piano again.

Yu Mingzhi continued to observe the movement outside through the crack in the window, and the mother in charge did not linger for too long, and left in a hurry. The banquet outside was still in full swing, and there was nothing unusual about it.

But at Old Madam Zhao's banquet, even if there was an accident, Zhao Zhong would quietly suppress him.

Yang Run only cared about playing the piano, completely forgetting that it had been a long time since Zhu'er left.

Song after song, until she felt very tired, she stopped and clapped her hands gently, "It's really extraordinary." ”

Yu Mingzhi applauded: "Sister Run'er's piano skills are beyond my reach. ”

Yang Run was shy, and returned to Yu Mingzhi's side to rub, "Sister Baozhi has won the award." By the way, why hasn't Zhu'er come back yet, I feel thirsty. ”

Yu Mingzhi said: "I'm probably too busy today, I have to wait some effort to get food, right?"

Yang Run pouted, "Eighty percent of us are looking at our low status, so we are lazy." ”

Yu Mingzhi rubbed her hair, "Sister Run'er, don't think about it, maybe Zhu'er will ...... in a while."

As she was talking, the door was pushed open, and Zhu'er came out with dim sum tea, she smiled at Yu Mingzhi, and then brought the plate to Yang Run, "I'm sorry, Miss Yang has been waiting for a long time, the slave maid sees that there is a good flower tea, so I waited a little bit and brought the freshly brewed one to the young ladies." ”

Yu Mingzhi looked at her eyes, and his hanging heart returned to its original place.

Looks like Jewel has found something.
