What belongs to her, she will have to get it back sooner or later. Everything she is doing now is for this purpose, and of course she can't use the means of destroying the foundation of "Jimo Tang" to deal with Yao'er. What's more, she is no longer the master of "Jimo Tang", and it is impossible for "Jimo Tang" not to be on guard against what she has handled, so why be a villain in vain.

However, once Yao'er masters the "Jimo Hall", she will also have great power, and it will be even more difficult to deal with at that time, and she will not even make possible attempts, which can also be seen that although Ouyang Yuyan has been defeated, her heart is not defeated, and her self-confidence has not been defeated.

Ouyang Yuyan was silent for a moment, and then asked, "What else is completely in our hands now?" ”

Yuan Yuqian perked up and said: "Those businesses that can benefit in the long run, we can't hide the eyes and ears of everyone in the 'Jimo Hall', the businesses that are completely controlled by the eldest prince are short-term, but they are not without huge profits." For example, Tian Sansi built 'Tianshu', this project was undertaken by us, and 'Tianshu' only consumed copper and iron is the total output of Daqi in the past two years, not to mention that there are various matters such as smelting and casting, forging construction, etc., from which we can make a profit......"

Shen Renzui regarded the "Jimo Hall" she created as an underground kingdom that completely belonged to her, but the major families did not think so, and it was impossible for her to control all the people in the "Jimo Hall", she had her own henchmen, she wanted to firmly control these people in her own hands, and the resources allocated to them could not come entirely from the "Jimo Hall".

So she took advantage of the door of "Jimotang" and handed over some business to "her own people" to operate. Now she has been deposed. These clandestine businesses became her only source of funding.

Of course, she could ask Ouyang for help, but Ouyang Yuyan had always been arrogant, and now she was defeated miserably. Before regaining her position as the suzerain, she didn't even want to see a member of the Ouyang family, so how could she be shy and ask the family for help.

Ouyang Yuyan said in a low voice: "Okay! What should be given up must be discarded, and what is in my hands must be firmly held, and we are now ...... Money is needed! ”

Ouyang Yuyan took a long breath and raised his eyes to look at the clear blue sky. Said leisurely: "The election of officials in Southern Xinjiang is the first thing that Yao'er presided over after becoming the Lord of Visible Ink, and I hope this is also the last thing she will preside over after becoming the Lord of Visible Ink." Hehe. Rising because of this and dying because of it, for her, it can be regarded as a cause and effect. A reincarnation......"

……

Mu Shangxuan was very happy to see Yao'er. The senior brothers were also very happy to see Yao'er.

They are indeed a group of pimples who steal chickens and dogs, fight and fight, but to their own people, they are a group of righteous men who put righteousness first, and Yao'er is their own people in their eyes, they are not only close to Yao'er, but also regard Yao'er as their pride. Not only them, but also for Mu Shangxuan, it is actually the same.

Mu Shangxuan has become more and more frustrated. His fall from grace can no longer be hidden, although he never mentions it. But he knew very well in his heart that this matter could not be hidden from anyone, and Zhou Ju dared to impeach him and interrogate him, of course, because of the arrogance of the official, but not because he knew that he had fallen out of favor.

Among the people born in the White Horse Temple, only Yao'er is rising step by step, and his fame is getting louder and louder, and now Yao'er's reputation in the court is already above him, if he hadn't fallen out of favor, maybe he would be a little jealous, but in this situation, Yao'er's rise has pinned all his ideals and hopes.

He doesn't want to use Yao'er for anything, his power comes from the harem, and Yao'er can't give him any help, but today, when the White Horse View is gradually declining, there is still a Yao'er who is thriving, which can make him feel some comfort.

Yao'er was also very happy when she saw Mu Shangxuan and the crowd. She has a lot of "friends", but no matter what kind of friends she has, this kind of drinking and banquet party must have a deep purpose, but Baimaguan is a group of people, their only purpose is to party, drink, talk and laugh, and with them, Yao'er can let go of all scheming, only relaxed, only comfortable, only wine.

When the wine was half-drunk, Yao'er keenly realized that Mu Shangxuan had something on his mind, he still laughed like a Hong Zhong, or he was wild and uninhibited, but the kind of uneasiness and despair hidden deep in his bones could hide from Yao'er's careless senior brothers, but he couldn't hide it from Yao'er.

Yao'er knows very well that the beautiful and demonic Zheng Gongzi is now more and more favored, and Mu Shangxuan is already a "queen" who has not been beaten into the cold palace but has fallen out of favor.

Mu Shangxuan's current conversation and laughter are full of laughter, and he is now flying and domineering. All to hide the panic in his heart. Although Yao'er saw through Mu Shangxuan's thoughts, she couldn't persuade her in a word.

Mu Shangxuan was very disgusted with the old woman in the palace. But his majesty, wealth, and status came entirely from the old woman, who hated the gray-haired, old woman who had taken over his freedom and body, and was unwilling to give up everything that the old woman had given him.

This is a knot that cannot be untied, what can Haruka say?

When Yao'er returned to her home, the sky was already slightly dark, and the sun was slanting in the west, and she was about to set on the distant mountains. In front of and behind him, there were many guards between light and darkness, and the guards in the dark were self-explanatory. They can dress up in all kinds of colors, and blend in perfectly with the surrounding crowd, even Yao'er doesn't know how many of them there are, maybe the Li Hei man who is not far away is. Maybe the honest farmer who carries an empty basket of vegetables, as if he has just sold out of vegetables, is it.

There are only four guards in the Ming Dynasty beside Yao'er, and it is not appropriate to say that they are guards, they are all dressed as servants and horses, with green clothes and small hats, and their appearance is not amazing, with Yao'er's official status today, it is normal to have a few servants and entourage around them, who can see that they are masters of the rivers and lakes with excellent martial arts.

……

When the bright moon is in the sky, it reflects a place of silver frost.

In Lin'an City at night, except for a few drunken gold fans such as Gentle Fang, the lights are bright, and other places have entered a deep sleep.

In the back garden, a babbling stream flows quietly in the melting moonlight. Suddenly, a loud and powerful baby cry sounded, suddenly breaking the silence of the night, and then a man's voice rang out in a daze: "Child...... Cry, feed ......."

Then a woman's voice said, "Children wake up when they sleep." Don't feed as soon as you wake up, he doesn't have to be hungry, you have to coax him first. If he goes back to sleep, he doesn't bother. ”

"Oh......"

After a while, the baby's cry continued, and at last a soft light came on from the window, and then the silhouette of a beautiful young woman was revealed, who gently opened her arms and took a baby into her arms.

Milk clearly didn't work as it should. The child was still crying with his neck up, and the beautiful young woman began to push the man next to her: "Hey! Get up, the child is not hungry. I didn't pull the pee, the little devil is making trouble, you just hug him and walk around the house, and he won't cry after a while. ”

The man's sleepy voice prevaricated vaguely: "Children can't be held all the time." Otherwise, if you don't hold him around next time, he won't sleep. Let's coax and see. ”

"Oh......"

The woman obediently began to coax the child, but unfortunately, she was obedient to the child but disobedient, so the woman continued to push her husband: "Get up, the child will not sleep!" Her husband immediately responded with a loud purr.

The woman was angry and funny, slapped him hatefully, and said angrily: "Ming'er, hire a wet nurse for the child!" ”

The man who was snoring immediately responded: "I said I was going to ask for a wet nurse a long time ago." It's because you don't want others to take care of it, so you have to do it yourself. ”

"Hah! Just know you're pretending to be asleep. Hurry up and coax the child! ”

"Whew...... Whew......"

On the same night, the autumn moon shines on the same brightness.

Under the moon, there is a quiet house. There is a house in the courtyard with lights still on.

Outside the wall, the watchman walked by knocking on the bangzi, and it was already past the third watch at this time.

A woman is lying on her back on the couch, revealing a piece of white skin and flesh, her plump chest is half a beautiful circle under the half-covered **, and the soft arc and soft complexion ripple out a soft charm.

Next to her sat an old woman, her face wrinkled, like the bark of an old tree that had lived for hundreds of years. Rough, wrinkled. The skin on her hands was almost as rough and loose, but her hands were still strong and steady.

She gently pressed the ribs of the beautiful woman lying on her back. A relieved smile slowly appeared on the old face: "Hmm! It's grown, but I still can't move my fists and feet in the past few months, but my walking and activities are no different from ordinary people. You girl, it's really fateful. ”

The woman gently pulled down her shirt, covering a piece of spring light on her chest, and said unconvinced: "Mei'er has been working in Jimo Hall since she was fourteen years old, so many years. With his family's mastery, he has never been fatally injured, and this time if he didn't do it himself. I'm completely defenseless, how can I ......"

The old woman smiled with a wrinkled face, nodded on her forehead and said, "You girl, you like to be competitive, exactly the same as when you were a child." ”

The woman tied her belt for a happy moment, sat up, and asked, "Grandma, have you heard the news for me to inquire?" ”

The old woman nodded and said, "Yes! I have already inquired that the new sect master's name is Yao'er, and it is said that there is still some unclear relationship with the Hidden Mo sect master...... Thankfully, the woman and her son were eventually rescued. ”

Gu Mei lost her voice and said, "Yao'er? Grandma, you said that the new sect master of Xianmo is...... The Yao'er who was sent by Ouyang Yuyan to kidnap her pregnant friend? ”

The old woman said, "Not bad! That's her! ”

Gu Mei said in surprise: "I didn't expect that she ...... She has become our new Sect Master, she ......"

When Gu Mei said this, her voice suddenly paused, and when she looked at the old woman again, a strange look appeared on her face: "Grandma, you said that it was the son who was rescued, not the child?" ”

The old woman laughed and said, "Isn't a newborn doll a child?" ”

Gu Mei shook her head hurriedly: "No! I mean, only one child? ”

The old woman said, "The more you talk, the more confused you become, isn't that woman giving birth to one or several children?" ”

"No, that's not right!"

Gu Mei shook her head vigorously, looking dazed.

The old woman looked at her in surprise and asked, "Mei'er, what's wrong?" ”

Gu Mei slowly raised her head, looked at her, and said word by word: "After the little woman was taken away, she gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses that night, not a son!" It's a son, a daughter! ”

The old woman's face gradually became solemn, and she said in a deep voice: "A son and a daughter? Are you sure? ”

"Of course I'm sure! It was me who delivered the woman's baby, her daughter...... Did he die young? ”

The old woman said, "No way, the old man said when he heard the news. There was only a mother and a son who were rescued, and there was no talk of a daughter at all, where did her daughter go? ”

Gu Mei gently frowned at the thin willow eyebrows. Shaking his head slightly, he said blankly: "I don't know ......"

The old woman paced slowly in the room for a while, sat down on the edge of the couch, and said solemnly: "Mei'er, the cause and effect of your injury has been devastating to me. The old body has gone into hiding, and Ben doesn't want to ask. But this is really a big deal, and you must now tell me the ins and outs of the matter! ”

Gumei took a deep breath. She was suddenly questioned that night, and after learning that she would deliver the baby, she told her about the process of sending her to deliver Xiaoman. The old grandmother has served the family all her life, and now although she is old, her skills are no longer as flexible as they used to be. But with her experience and experience. Her scheming and wisdom are something that Gu Mei can't catch up with no matter what.

The old grandmother connected the news she heard with the experience told by Gu Mei, pondered it carefully, and a pair of old eyes gradually lit up. muttered to himself: "The old body understands, understands......"

Gu Mei hurriedly said: "Grandma, tell me quickly, what is going on!" ”

The old woman said, "On that day, the woman was taken captive, just in time for childbirth. There is no stable woman in Ouyang's mansion, so I asked you who will deliver the baby? ”

Gumei nodded vigorously. "Yes! What's wrong? ”

Grandma's old eyes shone with a dignified light. said: "Ouyang Yuyan sent someone to kidnap the pregnant woman, should she want to use the lives of her mother and son to coerce Yao'er for her own use?" ”

Gu Mei nodded vigorously again: "I think so too, but what does this have to do with that little girl disappearing out of thin air?" ”

The old grandmother said: "That woman accidentally gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, this is just something that no one thought of in advance, and fainted at the moment when the first child was about to be born, and she didn't know that she actually gave birth to two children." ”

Gu Mei said anxiously: "Grandma, what do you want to say?" ”

Grandma said in a deep voice: "As long as Ouyang Yuyan has this woman and child, it is enough to use it to hold Yao'er hostage." The extra child can't increase or decrease much bargaining chips for her. So, she hid this child, she didn't want others to know about it, and you are not her cronies, which is why she sent someone to kill her. ”

Gu Mei was still at a loss, and after thinking for a long time, she said, "What is the use of her hiding a child?" If she wants to hide a child, why not hide the boy, and pay more attention to the boy, right? ”

Grandma shook her head and said, "Why is she hiding a child, I can't think of the reason." At least...... She didn't plan to use this girl to coerce Yao'er into doing anything for her in the future, otherwise, she wouldn't kill you, the insider. As for her hiding women and not men, it's easy to understand! ”

Grandma explained carefully to Gu Mei: "It is precisely because the boy is important that Ouyang Yuyan wants Yao'er to know that the woman gave birth to a son, and this time the mother and son are in the hands of Ouyang Yuyan, so they can be used to coerce Yao'er." When Ouyang Yuyan decided to break through with four carriages that day, she didn't know that Yao'er and they were smashing the Ouyang family's mansion one by one, and the reason why she wanted to leave was because the major families tried to put her under house arrest, right? ”

Gu Mei thought for a while and said, "That's right! The reason why Ouyang Yuyan was in a hurry to prepare for a breakthrough was because he didn't want to be at the mercy of the major families. ”

Grandma said: "That's it, the major families want to put her under house arrest, but if she leaves by force, the major families will not easily use force to stop her." In fact, when she fled, the major families did not use force to stop her. Ouyang Yuyan knows this very well, the reason why she is divided into four ways, so she is suspicious, is just to give the major families a reason to 'not stop' her, and she doesn't want them to be angry, do you understand? ”

Gu Mei said awe-inspiringly: "I understand, she thinks that she can definitely send that woman and son away safely, because the major families will not use force to stop her at all, so she can send the two most important hostages to the safest place for her, such as the Ouyang family, so that he has the conditions to hold Yao'er hostage."

When she did this, she even deliberately told Yao'er: 'Your friend's mother and son are in my hands, and in the Ouyang family, you can't snatch them back at all'. And the baby girl she hid...... She hadn't thought about who she was going to bully with this baby girl from the beginning! But...... She hid a child from someone else, and she didn't want to use it as a hostage, what was she going to do? ”

Grandma shook her head slightly: "The old body can't figure it out, it's exactly this!" ”

Gu Mei thought about it, and her face changed again: "Oh no! The child was delivered by me, and I am also Ouyang Yuyan's accomplice, if the new sect master knows about this, she will ...... She'll kill my ...... too" (to be continued......)
