Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy

After returning home, Xu Yixing quickly changed his clothes and went to the front yard to report to Gu and his father that he was safe and that he had returned.

Even if Gu didn't want to see her at all, even if her father had never returned home, she still had to do what she had to do.

Xu Yixing looked at Mrs. Gu who snorted coldly and shut him out, and he felt very happy in his heart: Just be proud of yourself, and I will let you be happy for a few months. At the end of the year, you will die!

After she felt relaxed all over and even took the time to take a hot bath, she suddenly remembered: Oh, Ying Jiu might be peeking at her while she was bathing.

Lying on the bed, Xu Yixing was just about to take a nap when he heard a soft thud, as if something fell from above.

When I opened the bed curtain, I saw Ying Jiu standing in front of the bed.

"Can you please not be so quiet? It's scary."

"I have already made a sound to remind you, Miss. Otherwise, how would you know I was here?"

Oh, it seems that I still underestimated the strength of the shadow guard. It turned out that he made that sound to inform me.

"What's the matter? Tell me."

"The man on the mountain, the guard beside him is a master, I dare not get too close, otherwise I will be discovered. Please tell me, if I meet him in the future, should I hide, or should I stay by your side according to my duty?"

This question should not have been asked by the shadow guards. After all, their duty is to protect the master, and of course the master's safety comes first. It was just that Ying Jiu had met Xu Yixing for the first time and was not sure about her thoughts, so he asked this question.

"Ada?" Xu Yixing narrowed his eyes. He only knew that he was Lu Anyuan's follower before, but he didn't know that he was also a master. But it was normal. After all, he was a prince, so it was normal for him to have someone guarding him.

"I don't want anyone to know about your existence. If there is a risk of exposure in the future, it is best for you to hide yourself and don't worry about me. If there is any change, I will inform you."

The matter of the shadow guard must not be known to others, otherwise how would Xu Yixing explain that there were such high-level guards around the concubine of the Xu family? It's better not to cause trouble for yourself.

"Understood. If there is nothing else, I will withdraw first."

"Wait a minute, if I want to find you, how can I find you?"

"You just need to call my name, or if you are in a situation where it is inconvenient to speak, you can make this gesture with your hands and I will appear."

As Ying Jiu spoke, he made a gesture to Xu Yixing with his hand, which looked very similar to the orchid finger, but not as artificial and eye-catching as the orchid finger.

"Okay. Also, did you just peek at me taking a shower?"

Ying Jiu was stunned for a moment, and said in a somewhat stiff tone: "I am a shadow guard, not a pervert." After saying that, he retreated, and Xu Yixing didn't see clearly how he left.

Tsk, why pretend to be a gentleman if you don’t want to say anything?

Xu Yixing lay down angrily, and slept until dark. Siqin did not come in to disturb him, perhaps because she thought that the young lady should have a good rest since she was ill these days.

In the middle of the night, there was another dull thud, like a small wine glass falling onto a thick carpet. If you didn't listen carefully, you wouldn't hear it at all.

"Ying Jiu, is that you?" Xu Yixing called out softly, and pulled open the bed curtain again, but it was not Ying Jiu, but Ying Yi.

"Second Miss, the matter you asked me to verify has already had a result."

Ying Yi's voice was filled with unspeakable sadness, but it was not obvious, just making people feel sad. Maybe he couldn't accept the fact that he, as a shadow guard, had killed the two people he was supposed to protect.

"How to say?"

"The one in the Sun Mansion was indeed disguised, using a human skin mask. And according to Ying Wu's observation, she should look very much like a young lady, so it is very realistic."

"Oh." Xu Yixing sighed. No wonder even his own father didn't recognize him.

"As for the matter of finding the body you mentioned, there is no result yet. Please give us some more time. We have also checked the remains of Aunt Bai. It is very likely that she was poisoned, but it was severely damaged and cannot be absolutely confirmed."

"Yeah." This was expected. Xu Yixing was no longer sad, but just had a faint regret that enveloped her whole body.

"We are already spreading the news about Madam Gu's experience. Most of the noble ladies in the capital will know about it tomorrow."

"Well done." That's how you rub Gu Shuang's face on the ground to make you arrogant!

"All the remaining people have been dispersed. Some have gone to look for Xu Housheng, and some have gone to look for Xiaosui in the capital. But if Xiaosui is no longer in the capital, it may be difficult to find him."

Xu Yixing knew it was difficult, but she had no choice. Xiaosui was the key to overthrowing Nanny Gu. If she really died...

"Okay, just do your best. By the way, if I need a disguised Xiaosui, can you do it?"

"It won't be difficult as long as there is guidance from someone who is familiar with her appearance."

"Okay, then I'll have someone draw her portrait soon, and I'll have Yingjiu bring it to you later. We need to handle the fake Xiaosui and the real Xiaosui together, just in case."

If Xiaosui was gone, then I would just make a fake one. Anyway, even someone with my identity could fake it, so it shouldn't be a problem to make a maid.

Xu Yixing thought of that very important matter again: "Since you have already verified that the one in the Sun Mansion is fake, what do you think about me recognizing the master?"

Yingyi did not hesitate, as if they had discussed it before coming.

"I'm sorry, Second Miss. The Shadow Guard has its own principles. Besides, we only confirmed that the eldest lady was fake, and we didn't prove that the real one was dead."

Xu Yixing held his forehead with his hand, what a bunch of stubborn people.

But she was also quietly happy. It seemed that the people that her grandfather and Aunt Bai had trained for her were indeed very loyal. She was young and didn't know the benefits of a shadow guard. She mistakenly treated her grandson as a treasure!

"Although we cannot acknowledge you as our master, since you have the token, we will serve you."

"Okay, let's do this for now."

"Excuse me for being so nosy, but since you are in charge of the Shadow Guard, are you going to avenge the young lady?"

"Of course!" What would I gain by not avenging myself?

"Please tell me how to take revenge?"

Xu Yixing was silent.

Of course, she knew the easiest way was to have the shadow guard sneak into the Sun Mansion and assassinate Sun Ziyou, and kill the bitch Si Wu at the same time. Regardless of the consequences, it would be best to let them kill themselves after the killing, so that not only would she get her revenge, but she would not leave any handle for others.

When Ying saw that she was silent, he said, "Miss, you may have a gentle personality. Why don't I help you solve your troubles?"

"With nine of us, we only need to send two people to have a high chance of successfully assassinating the young lady's enemy in the Sun Mansion. If we send four people, we can guarantee that we can escape unscathed.

Of course, if you want to root out the problem, you can just send me. After the assassination is successful, I will end it myself and will not cause any trouble to you."
