Silent night.

The courtyard of the Qin Mansion is still brightly lit, and many maids and servants are busy coming and going, and occasionally there are silk and bamboo singing and dancing echoing in the night sky, mixed with the coquettish laughter of young girls.

In addition to the head of the family, the areas where the other people are located are very lively, and many young children call friends, drink and have fun, indulge freely, and live a very nourishing life.

In a hidden courtyard, Qin Haiyuan was talking to a red-clothed maid with fair skin and charming eyes.

“…… The eldest lady seems to be a little wrong with her recent performance, do you notice something? ”

Qin Haiyuan looked uneasy, stared at her and asked in a deep voice.

"It doesn't seem to be anything abnormal, it's basically the same as before, except that I spend more time in the study and cultivation room." The maid shook her head and replied with a somewhat confused expression.

Qin Haiyuan's face softened a little, and said: "Qiu Lin, although you have been waiting by the eldest lady's side for more than ten years, you have to understand which clan you are, only by completely overthrowing the family master's line, can we really have a bright future, understand?" ”

"Well, people get it."

The maid Qiu Lin replied in a low voice: "The eldest lady and I have grown up together, and she trusts me the most, so even after the last incident, she didn't suspect me, young master, although you can rest assured, our plan is going well." ”

Qiu Lin originally belonged to the family of Qin Haiyuan's clan, that is, a slave. At the age of seven or eight, he was given to Qin Luyan as a playmate and personal maid, although they are different masters and servants, they have also had an extraordinary affection after ten years, and they were very trusted and relied on by Qin Luyan before.

Qin Haiyuan smiled: "That's the best, you will be the biggest hero after the thing is done in the future." Master Ben will definitely admit you into the room. By the way, all the industrial title deeds in your hands, as well as the eldest lady's private money, will all be handed over to me. ”

"This ......"

Qiu Lin hesitated for a moment and did not immediately agree. As one of Qin Luyan's most trusted personal maids, she took care of those properties for her, and if she handed them over like this, she would not be able to explain to the eldest lady in the future.

It's just that when he thought that Qin Luyan would leave the Qin Mansion soon, he would marry this man at that time, and if he didn't seize the opportunity to curry favor with him now, I was afraid he would be unhappy in the future.

"That's fine! Don't let anyone else down. Qiu Lin finally relented.

"Of course, Young Master Ben is destined to be the heir of the family, the descendant disciple of Xuanling Palace, how can he be untrustworthy?" Qin Haiyuan said proudly.

The two kept warm for a while, and finally Qiu Lin tidied up her dress and left in a hurry.

The road was peaceful, but when she just returned to Qin Luyan's boudoir embroidery building, she found a tall figure standing quietly on the steps.

"Mr. Yu,"

Qiu Lin's heart tightened, and she forced herself to bow her head calmly and salute: "It's so late, do you still come to discuss with the eldest lady?" ”

Uncle Yu's sharp eyes stared at her coldly for a long time before he slowly said, "Well, there are indeed some things. ”

"But this manager is not looking for the eldest lady now, but for you."

"What...... What the? ”

Qiu Lin's face changed, and a bad feeling faintly appeared in her heart, and she subconsciously took two steps back. But she found that at some point, four burly figures exuding a chilling chill had completely blocked her back road, and it was the Guardian Martial Master under Chief Yu.

"Manager Yu, you ...... What are you doing? ”

Qiu Lin's back kept oozing cold sweat, and she mustered up the courage to say: "I'm the person next to the eldest lady, even if there is any mistake, you have no right to punish me." Do you want to be disrespectful to the eldest lady? ”

The main door of the boudoir opened gently, and the pleasant jingling sound came, accompanied by a clear and soft voice: "It's really hard for you, Qiu Lin girl, don't forget to pull me as a shield at this time." ”

Seeing the slender beauty shadow walking out on the opposite side, Qiu Lin's face was pale, and her beautiful shoulders trembled slightly.

Qin Luyan's skirt is like snow, her posture is graceful, like a fairy in the dust, her long black hair is scattered behind her shoulders, her eyebrows are curved, her smart and beautiful eyes are as bright as stars, her nose is straight, and her cherry lips are crystal clear.

She walked gracefully to the bottom of the steps, stared deeply at the maid who had been with her for ten years, and asked quietly, "After all these years, is there any place where Miss Ben can't stand you?" ”

"I didn't ...... No. Qiu Lin looked ashamed and snorted.

"Is there a place in the Qin Mansion that can't live with you?" Qin Luyan asked again.

"Not either."

"Your betrayal, then, is an unpardonable sin." Qin Luyan sighed softly.

Qiu Lin's face was red and white, her teeth were clenched, and her inexplicable courage supported her to jump up violently, screaming hoarsely:

"What if I betrayed? You are a woman, and I am also a woman, but why can you be high up, enjoy fine clothes, fine food, glory and wealth, and I can only be a lowly maid, waiting for a noble master like you every day, careful and cautious lest I make mistakes, on what basis? Just because you were born in the Qin family, is it because you are the daughter of the head of the family?! ”

Qin Luyan smiled coldly, shook her head and said, "Uncle Yu and these martial artists around you have also served my father for many years, and each of them is no worse than you in terms of ability and contribution. But they did not betray...... Forget it, what am I going to do with you? ”

"A woman like you just can't see the good of others, and always thinks that what others have, you should also have, but you don't want to think about why this is happening."

"You want to sell the lord to seek glory, but you don't know that Qin Haiyuan has a lot of women around him, there is no more than you, and there is no less than you, even if you sell the master, you may not be able to seek glory."

She waved her hand lightly and ordered: "Take her down for a good trial, if she doesn't confess, I remember that she seems to have parents, and a minor brother, maybe you can consider ......"

"What are you going to do?!"

Qiu Lin screamed, desperately trying to pounce on Qin Luyan. But the two martial artists had long been on guard, and immediately took action to press her to the ground.

Qiu Lin struggled desperately, staring at Qin Luyan, constantly crying and scolding: "If you dare to touch them, Young Master Qin Haiyuan will never let you go......"

"Hehe, anger without strength is meaningless."

Qin Luyan said lightly: "You don't have the qualifications to threaten me at all, and Qin Haiyuan doesn't either, maybe it won't be long before their family will come to accompany you, so you can go with peace of mind!" ”

Uncle Yu glanced at the martial artists and knocked Qiu Lin, who was crying, unconscious.

"Miss, ...... you" He looked at Qin Luyan.

"The rest of the matter is up to you, I'm going to go back on the retreat, time is running out!" She smiled slightly.

"Yes."

Uncle Yu looked at her deeply, his expression complicated and inexplicable.

I have the impression that the only woman of the head of the family is soft, innocent and simple, and even a little weak. After the death of his parents, he became even more decadent and depressed, and he couldn't be interested in doing anything. Therefore, many old people in the Qin Mansion were disappointed in her.

However, today's scene has greatly changed his impression in the past, Qin Luyan's method of investigating and dealing with traitors is simple and decisive, without dragging his feet, and he has faintly had a bit of the demeanor of the head of the family back then. Could it be that in the past few years, the eldest lady has been hiding in a low-key manner? It's incredible.

It's just that in this way, the revival of the Qin Mansion can see hope, and it is not in vain for his hard work in the past.

Looking at the back of the eldest lady leaving, Manager Yu's mood suddenly became a lot easier.

In the next few days, Qin Luyan kept her door closed in the name of recuperation.

Qin Haiyuan and several cousins came to look for her several times, wanting to continue to pry her out to play in the mountains and rivers, but Qin Luyan shirked it.

At this time, he didn't know that his chess piece Qiu Lin had been quietly disposed of by Uncle Yu, just as if she was going out on an errand, this was Qin Luyan's own rumor.

After understanding the conspiracy of this group of bastards, she has already sentenced these relatives, friends and girlfriends who tend to be inflammatory, flattering and flattering, and only wait for her strength to recover in the future and obtain the official status of a disciple of Xuanling Palace, she will settle accounts with them one by one, and no one can escape!
