He favored his concubine and I cut off my wealth. Everyone in the mansion was in a panic.

Aunt Qiao lay there for a long time, but never waited until Marquis Yangling leaned down again. She was a little puzzled. She raised her head slightly and looked towards him, and saw Marquis Yangling sitting at the foot of the bed, his gloomy face almost dripping with tears. Come out with ink.

What's wrong with him?

It wasn't until she saw somewhere on Yang Linghou's body that Aunt Qiao widened her eyes in surprise and opened her lips slightly, as if she couldn't react to the fact for a while.

Marquis Yangling...don't give up?

Aunt Qiao lay back quietly on the soft pillow, not daring to breathe for fear that Marquis Yangling would anger her.

After a long time, Aunt Qiao suddenly felt the bed shaking slightly, followed by the rustling sound of dressing.

It wasn't until there was silence in the house that Aunt Qiao dared to stand up and look outside. Seeing that there was no one in the house, Aunt Qiao breathed a sigh of relief.

But then she thought about it, and her heart sank again: It's over, she knows such a big secret of Marquis Yangling, will she be silenced by him?

Thinking of this, Aunt Qiao felt quite depressed in an instant. After a while, Aunt Qiao made a decision: from today on, she would say that she was not sick and try to reduce her low sense of existence.

She didn't ask for anything else, she just wanted to let Marquis Yangling know that she was a very peaceful person and would not affect his reputation.

…

Tinglan Courtyard.

Shen Qing, who was rumored to be bedridden, was leisurely playing with the cat on the soft couch. Her delicate little face was white and rosy, and her black eyes were clear and bright. There was no trace of illness.

Chanyi was peeling grape skins for Shen Qing. Xu learned from Lu Yan that peeling alone was not enough, but also carefully removed the seeds. The main thing was not to let Shen Qing waste any effort.

Fuyi took out a clean gold needle and inserted it neatly into the grape pulp, making it easier for Shen Qing to hold it.

"Tuanzi, come here."

Shen Qing called softly, and the white cat not far away quickly ran towards Shen Qing, jumped lightly, and fell into Shen Qing's arms accurately.

Tuanzi was the name given to the white cat given by Shen Qing to Lu Yan.

"Miss, the two attendants sent to Yuezhou by Aunt Xu a few days ago really found something."

Shen Qing, who was smoothing the dumplings, suddenly raised his eyes, "What did you find?"

"Ten years ago, Qin Shangshu did meet with those county magistrates in private many times, and he did accept bribes. But what was strange was that every time Qin Shangshu showed up, he looked listless, but the next day he was back to normal. , overtly and covertly they look like two people.

Moreover, Qin Shangshu acted upright and honest every time he was in front of others. Many people regarded him as a hero. Until the flood spread, although many people criticized Qin Shangshu for being selfish and disregarding others. Life or death, but there are a few people who always firmly believe that Qin Shangshu is innocent.

If Qin Shangshu is really all pretending, then his acting skills are too good.

By the way, the news from the two attendants also said that Qin Shangshu valued the staff member named Zhou Xian very much and took him with him almost all the time, even when meeting with the county magistrates and visiting brothels. None are left behind. "

Hearing this, Shen Qing thought for a moment. Judging from what he has discovered so far, there may be some unknown inside story about the matter.

"How is the investigation of Zhou Xian's whereabouts going?"

Chanyi shook her head, "There is no news, it's like the world has evaporated. I heard that the Qin family was ransacked and Zhou Xian was also exiled. As for whether he arrived at the place of exile, we shouldn't be able to find out easily."

Exile...I am afraid only the Ministry of Punishment has specific information.

Unknowingly, night has fallen quietly.

After the entire Yanglinghou Mansion was completely shrouded in darkness, a faint sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the window.

Chanyi, who was chatting with Shen Qing, didn't know anything about it, but Fuyi suddenly fell silent and mouthed to the two of them: "Someone is coming."

Shen Qing probably knew who the visitor was and said softly: "Don't panic, it should be one of our own."

As expected, the visitor should be Lu Yan.

The news that she was bedridden was kept secret. Lu Yan didn't know the truth, so it wasn't surprising that he came to find her at night.

Chanyi walked to the window and opened it, and saw Lu Yan in a purple brocade robe standing under the moonlight on the eaves of the window. Chanyi was slightly surprised when he saw Chanyi.

"Prince Lu."

Chanyi called him, indicating that he could come in.

Lu Yan jumped in from the window and saw Shen Qing leaning on the soft couch, smiling slightly at him, and immediately felt relieved.

Chanyi pulled Fuyi out, leaving space for the two of them.

However, as soon as he went out, Fuyi noticed an extremely weak breath in the dark night in the southeast, and immediately narrowed his eyes again.

In addition to being a doctor trained by Yun Xiaoxiao himself, Fuyi also has another identity: the most capable secret guard trained by the Yun family.

Fuyi was just about to take action when he thought of something. He looked at Chanyi beside him and said quietly: "Besides Prince Lu, is there another one of my own?"

Chanyi was startled, then waved her hand towards the night sky. That was the code she and Lize had set.

As expected, Lize walked out of the dark night in the southeast, with dark clothes and dark hair, as if he had merged with the night.

Chanyi's eyes lit up and she looked at Fuyi, "This one is also one of our own."

Fuyi was silent, and then walked straight towards his room.

inside the house.

Lu Yan walked to Shen Qing's side, and just as he was about to touch Tuanzi's hair with his palm, he heard it let out a soft cry, and then twisted his body away, obviously not wanting Lu Yan to touch it.

Shen Qing chuckled, "Why did you come here suddenly?"

"I'm not relieved to hear the news that you're sick."

After saying that, he continued, "Your fake move should be for Yangling Marquis' Mansion to see, but what did they do?"

Although he didn't know the inside story, he guessed the key point at once.

Shen Qing nodded and briefly told her about the conspiracy of the Mu family to poison her with the 'Soul Loss' poison. The pressure around Lu Yan suddenly dropped a lot.

Glancing at the murderous intent flashing in Lu Yan's eyes, Shen Qing gently squeezed his palm, "The movements of the Mu family are all under my control. I am safe, you don't have to worry."

The coldness around Lu Yan dissipated for the most part, and he responded with a "OK".

"By the way, Shu Yu came over a few days ago and told me that you have been visiting Yining Marquis's Mansion very frequently recently?"

Lu Yan's face was full of integrity, "Is it a fate created by chasing and blocking?"

Shen Qing didn't believe it at all, "Are you creating a relationship by chasing and blocking?"

Lu Yan: "..."

After a moment of silence, Lu Yan spoke solemnly, and his serious look was like reciting, "The first step to successfully win the beauty is to establish a good relationship with your sweetheart's family."

Shen Qing was a little surprised, "Did you secretly watch the tutorial?"

Lu Yan's ears turned red quietly, but he didn't admit it, "No."

Shen Qing raised his hand and touched his hot ears, and said softly, "It's so hot, are you guilty?"

Lu Yan has a small problem that only a few people including Shen Qing know, that is, when he is guilty or nervous, the tips of his ears will involuntarily turn red and hot.

However, looking at the whole Shengjing, there is only one Shen Qing who can make Lu Yan guilty and nervous.

The warm touch from the tip of her ear instantly destroyed most of Lu Yan's rationality, and even her heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

Lu Yan felt that his throat was getting tighter and tighter, and his voice was also hoarse, "Jiaojiao, stop it."

Seeing the lust spreading in Lu Yan's eyes, Shen Qing quickly let go, but it was still a step too late.

Lu Yan had already come to her, gently shook the ball in her arms away, and then held Shen Qing in his arms.

He lowered his head and nibbled Shen Qing's lips lightly, then said helplessly: "Don't tease me, I don't have any self-control in front of you."
