Chapter 25: Mutual Temptation

Yunyan looked down at the woman, she concluded from the bottom of her heart that this matter was not simple, and she would not be wrong about that voice.

The woman looked at Yunyan sadly and sobbed: "Miss Yun, Qiuhui's father is dead, she is really homeless, fortunately Miss Yun rescued her, Qiuhui has nothing to repay, I wish I can accompany Miss Yun, I can be a cow and a horse!" ”

"Your name is Qiuhui?" Yunyan looked at the woman who called Qiuhui, she was not very sure of Qiuhui's identity before, but now she was sure that this Qiuhui was the woman who held Zhao Mingsheng hostage that day and night, and it was Zhao Guifei's person.

Yunyan concealed the emotions in her heart, looked calm in front of her, and said slowly: "Since you are helpless, why don't you stay by my side and be my personal maid?" ”

As soon as Yunyan said this, Qiu Hui looked at Yunyan expectantly, and her demeanor was like a woman from the countryside, simple and unpretentious.

But Yunyan knows that these are just Qiu Hui's disguises, what is the purpose of her painstaking design of this scene? What is the purpose of her approaching herself?

Back in Yanmeng Pavilion, Yunyan temporarily placed Qiuhui in the east wing, and when she returned to the main wing, Yunyan fell into deep thought.

She can't act rashly now, and keeping Qiuhui by her side is just an expedient measure, she knows that Zhang Xiucai and Zhao Mingsheng are really for their own good, but she can't easily believe it.

In this house, she only believes in herself.

When Zhao Mingsheng came back from Linlang Pavilion, he learned from Zhang Xiucai that a woman had been rescued on Yunyan Road, and he wanted the woman to be his personal maid.

Zhao Mingsheng originally wanted to take a good look at the woman who was rescued by Yunyan during dinner, but when he was about to have dinner, Zhao Mingsheng saw the person who came clearly, his heart tightened, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

Yunyan glanced at him, noticed Zhao Mingsheng's unusualness, and said after taking a seat: "Qiuhui, although you are now my personal maid, I have been used to being alone since I was a child, and I don't have so many rules here, so you can eat with us today." ”

"But, is that okay?" Qiu Hui looked at Yunyan crampedly, Yunyan nodded and motioned for her to sit down, and she sat down in the chair.

Coincidentally, Qiu Hui sat opposite Zhao Mingsheng, and Yun Yan was overjoyed. Zhao Mingsheng had seen Qiuhui, but she wanted to see how Zhao Mingsheng would handle himself at today's dinner.

Qiu Hui was very restrained in her meal, Zhao Mingsheng still talked eloquently, but Zhang Xiucai always remembered the ancient precepts, she didn't say anything when she ate and didn't sleep, and only occasionally when it was necessary to answer, she would say a few words.

After dinner, Yunyan did not rush to let people disperse, but asked Qiuhui to set tea in the main hall.

She repeatedly paid attention to Qiu Hui and Zhao Mingsheng, but the two of them did not show the slightest flaw, except for Zhao Mingsheng's stunned when he first saw Qiu Hui, Yunyan did not find a trace of abnormality.

Did she really hear it wrong? Qiu Hui and that woman just have similar voices?

This matter is not good for Yunyan to make a decision immediately, and can only take one step at a time to see one step at a time.

That night, Yunyan fell asleep under Qiuhui's service, and Qiuhui returned to the east wing to rest for three quarters of an hour, and when the time was ripe, she sneaked into the courtyard of Zhao Mingsheng and Zhang Xiucai, and accurately entered Zhao Mingsheng's bedroom.

Zhao Mingsheng expected that Qiuhui would come to him at night, but he just put out the candle after nightfall to avoid being discovered.

"You really didn't disappoint your master, and you acted so cautiously." Qiu Hui couldn't help but praise Zhao Mingsheng, she thought that when she sneaked into Zhao Mingsheng's bedroom at night, she would see the scene of Zhao Mingsheng sleeping soundly.

It can only be said that Zhao Mingsheng's disguise on weekdays is too realistic, and even Qiu Hui subconsciously thinks that Zhao Mingsheng is an immodest poor scholar.

In the face of Qiu Hui's praise, Zhao Mingsheng did not answer immediately, but planned a response in his heart.

"What are you going to do?"

"You don't care about this, I appear here, I have my role. The master has commanded that the relationship between you and me should not be exposed, and this time I came to you just to warn you not to spoil my business. ”

"Then I have to know, is there a conflict between what you are going to do and what the master asked me to do? Who knows if you'll steal the credit! ”

Zhao Mingsheng lowered his voice and roared, he didn't know what Qiu Hui chose to lurk around Yun Yan for, at this time he could only choose this way to test Qiu Hui.

Qiu Hui snorted coldly, ignored Zhao Mingsheng, turned around and was about to leave, suddenly remembered something, she looked at Zhao Mingsheng.

"You have a snack on the matter of Wei Ji San, don't think that everything will be fine if you have a lot to do with Yun Yan, you have to get her trust, so as to get Wei Ji San, and then the Yun family will not have to stay."

With that, Qiu Hui turned to leave, leaving Zhao Mingsheng alone in shock.

Sure enough, Zhao Guifei's purpose was to get the taste to be extremely dispersed, and then destroy the Yun family.

What is this extremely dispersed taste, Zhao Mingsheng can't control it now, but this Yun family, Zhao Mingsheng will definitely not let Yunyan and the others be harmed in the slightest.

Looking at Qiu Hui's attitude today, Zhao Mingsheng probably guessed that Zhao Guifei had not been suspicious of him, so he continued to stay by Yun Yan's side, and from time to time cooperated with Qiu Hui to give Zhao Guifei a little sweetness, and when the time was ripe, he would definitely let the Yun family avoid all this.

Early the next morning, Yunyan woke up and saw Zhao Mingsheng coming to him with breakfast.

In the room, Yunyan looked at a table of exquisite breakfast, and was very puzzled, and Zhao Mingsheng on the side said: "Yunyan, I know that I didn't dare to say that I liked you that night, and it was my fault that I made you angry." You see, I specially bought your favorite breakfast today, and you can eat as much as you want, this is my heart. ”

"Zhao Mingsheng, when did you treat me so well, did you do something bad to make up for it?"

Yunyan's seemingly unintentional words were actually testing Zhao Mingsheng, Zhao Mingsheng didn't notice it, he wouldn't know that Yunyan in the carriage hadn't fallen asleep at all that day, and heard all the conversations between him and Qiuhui.

"I just thought I was too reckless that day, and I didn't mean anything else."

"Then I won't pursue this matter, you are still my military." Yunyan smiled at Zhao Mingsheng, and Zhao Mingsheng breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart.

Thinking of the warning words that Qiu Hui said last night, Zhao Mingsheng cautiously probed: "Xiao Yunyan, that Qiu Hui, do you really want to keep her by your side?" ”

"yes, what's wrong?" Yunyan took a sip of side dishes and drank porridge again, not caring about Zhao Mingsheng's words at all.

"I can't say it either, but I feel like I'm not at ease when suddenly a stranger is by your side taking care of you."

"You care about me?" Yunyan put down his chopsticks, suddenly became silent, and looked at Zhao Mingsheng tightly, and Zhao Mingsheng was a little uncomfortable for a while.

Yunyan hid his face and smiled when he saw this: "Okay, I won't tease you, Zhao Gongzi, I know that you are sincerely good for me, but you and I didn't know each other at the beginning, and it is precisely because we trust each other that we have everything we have today." Zhao Gongzi, Qiu Hui is very kind and honest, I don't think it's okay to keep her by my side. ”

Realizing that Yunyan was resolute in this matter, Zhao Mingsheng was also worried that he would show his flaws, so he simply smiled at Yunyan and deliberately teased her: "You have a personal maid, so when will you arrange a few personal maids for me?" ”

"If you really want a personal maid, I can give you Qiuhui, how about it?"

"I don't dare to take advantage of others, besides, I'm young, I don't need to be served, I want to support myself."

"Okay, that's what you said."

Yunyan and Zhao Mingsheng ate this breakfast quite happily, but they were very tired from each other's intentional temptations.

Three days later, Linlang Pavilion was officially opened, followed by the auction of Linlang Pavilion.

A long time ago, Zhao Mingsheng and Zhang Xiucai arranged everything basically properly, and the auction was held very smoothly.

That night, Yunyan arranged a banquet in a restaurant in the town, planning to celebrate with everyone.

At the same time, Wu Baosheng's side was not lightly angry.

Today's auction was very smooth, but when Zhao Mingsheng brought someone to give a dividend, he wanted him to take out the Nanzhu that he had privately swallowed before, Wu Baosheng knew that the silver sent by Zhao Mingsheng was worth more than the Nanzhu, so he had to compromise.

But after Zhao Mingsheng left, the more Wu Baosheng thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was not simple.

He has been in business for many years, and there are many problems in this matter, and Wu Baosheng concluded that he was deceived by Zhao Mingsheng and Yunyan.

Thinking of this, Wu Baosheng was angry, and when Wu Baosheng thought about how to deal with it, he returned to the study and was stunned to find that there was a letterhead on his bookcase.

After roughly reading the contents of the letterhead, Wu Baosheng's eyes lit up, and he personally went to the county governor's mansion with gifts early the next morning.

The county lieutenant of Yongle County is the elder brother of Wu Baosheng's second cousin, Wu Guigui. Wu Baosheng can be arrogant and domineering in Yongle County, mostly because of such an elder brother who is a county lieutenant.

That Wu Guigui knew that Wu Baosheng came to visit, so he ordered someone to lead Wu Baosheng to the study. When he saw Wu Baosheng, he put on a high-spirited appearance.

"Baosheng, why did you come to this official today?"

Wu Baosheng was already surprised, and he handed the letterhead to Wu Guigui: "Of course, there are good things to give to the county lieutenant, please take a look." ”

When Wu Guigui saw the contents of the letterhead, he was so frightened that he almost threw away the letterhead, he looked at Wu Baosheng and said tentatively: "Where did you get this letterhead?" ”

"Someone sneaked into my study late at night and sent this letterhead, I didn't believe that the seal on it was real, but looking at the adult's move, I believed a little."

Wu Guigui quickly calmed down and asked, "The Linlang Pavilion mentioned in this letterhead, but the shop that shined in the auction before?" ”

"Exactly. My lord, since the meaning of Lord Zhao is here, this favor of pushing the boat down the river is not easy to live up to. ”

This letter is Zhao Guifei's nephew, although the official position is not very big, but it is a few levels older than Wu Guifei, and there is such a backer as Zhao Guifei, Wu Guigui knows that this matter is not easy to shirk.

"Since this is Lord Zhao's intention, then do it according to Lord Zhao's intention, but this matter is not urgent, if you want to pull Linlang Pavilion down in one fell swoop, you still need to think about it in the long run."

"That's what my lord said."

Wu Baosheng knew that Wu Guigui would not ignore this matter, with Lord Zhao's orders, the life of Linlang Pavilion would not be easy, as for Na Yunyan and others, they had already become swords and fish meat, and they were slaughtered by others.

Half a month later, the border pass was full of war, and the people at the border pass were even more miserable. The imperial court increased taxes, and the people were looted everywhere, and those who had men in the family were forced to join the army, and if they disobeyed, they were killed on the street.

Yongle County was calm as always, until one day the county officials and soldiers surrounded Linlang Pavilion, and a gunsmoke was coming.
