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

Xu Yixing looked at Ying Yi who was half-kneeling on the ground. He didn't expect that he would say out loud everything that was in his mind.

It seems that as long as he nods, Yingyi will immediately do what he says.

But. . .

"No. In this case, how can I know why Sun Ziyou wanted to kill the eldest lady? How can I know why he created an imposter?"

"How do you know that it was Sun Ziyou who killed the young lady? You didn't mention it during the day in the mountains."

Huh? Xu Yixing wondered if he had fallen into a trap. Was this guy trying to trick him? It seemed like he still didn't trust him...

"I don't need to explain to you the source of my information." Xu Yixing became tough. He was really fed up with people who didn't speak directly.

"Yes. How about this? You send two people and we tie up Sun Ziyou and make sure he opens his mouth."

"Do you think the Duke's Mansion is your home? I believe you can kill someone in the Duke's Mansion, but it's not that easy to kidnap someone. And Sun Ziyou is not bad at martial arts, you think it's too simple."

Xu Yixing said, and sighed again: "Actually, none of this is important. What's important is that you are the ones that Commander Bai left for my sister. If possible, I hope that none of you will be lost. There is no need for unnecessary sacrifice."

She really thought so in her heart. What she cherished now, apart from her father, was the "legacy" left to her by her mother.

"What's more, if you kill Sun Ziyou, there will be chaos over there. When the impostor is discovered, the Xu Mansion will also be in chaos. I don't want this. What I want is to defeat them openly."

"The Shadow Guard only does things in secret and doesn't know how to act openly and aboveboard." Ying Yi expressed his resistance slightly.

"I know, you guys just don't have any brains, so you should follow the smart people! I'll be the brain, and you guys just act like the knife and protect yourselves.

What I mean by aboveboard is that one day in the future, when the Duke's Mansion collapses, I will then expose Sun Ziyou's murderous past and make him have no way to go to heaven or hell, and let the entire Duke's Mansion go to me... and bury my sister with me!"

Xu Yixing was a little crazy. She was so angry that she wanted to kill someone. She wanted to kill everyone in the Sun Mansion!

Yingyi was not surprised to see her acting like this, but smiled with relief. However, he was wearing a mask, so Xu Yixing didn't see it.

"Yes, I'll follow Second Miss's advice." Ying Yi said, and was about to retreat.

Xu Yixing was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat. How could she be so out of control? Suddenly, she smelled a faint fragrance in the room, and she was even more shocked - the shadow guard didn't believe in her at all.

Xu Yixing's voice turned cold, and he called out to Yingyi: "Did you use aphrodisiac on me?"

Ying Jiu came down from the roof in a flash and knelt in front of the bed, saying in a mocking tone, "I told you long ago that this move was too risky. The Second Miss is very perceptive."

Ying Yi went from half-kneeling to kneeling on both legs, and bowed respectfully to Xu Yi: "I'm sorry, Second Miss, this is all my idea. The incense is harmless to people, it just makes people think. I also want to hear your true intentions."

Xu Yixing didn't get mad, on the contrary he was very happy, even happier than before. The shadow guard was right not to trust him, otherwise anyone could pry them away, and he wouldn't be able to survive.

Moreover, he was indeed suspicious. Not only did he come to their door with the jade pendant, but he also forced them to show up, and right away he gave them some confidential information. If the shadow guard didn't become suspicious, then his brain would be like a pig's.

"If I had just agreed to your plan and exchanged your lives for Sun Ziyou's life, would you have abandoned me?"

"No, whoever has the token is the master." Ying paused for a moment, and finally confessed: "But if you really agree with my plan, we will consider executing your future orders."

Xu Yixing wrapped himself in the quilt to hide the goose bumps he got from fear.

"You guys go down, I won't pursue this matter."

Shadow One and Shadow Nine stood up at the same time, ready to leave.

"But if there is a next time, I don't mind letting you know what I have in my power."

The light and soft words from the little girl made Ying Yi and Ying Jiu feel cold at the same time. Ying Yi retreated, and he had already considered that this would be his future master - of course, that had to be after he confirmed that the eldest lady was dead.

This time Xu Yixing could finally sleep peacefully. After several confrontations, she found that the shadow guards were also human beings. They were just a group of people with higher martial arts skills. There was nothing to be afraid of.

After waking up and having breakfast, she went to the front yard to pay her respects. Although she knew that Gu would not see her, after seeing Xu Yiwen was also turned away, she immediately realized that something had happened to Gu.

"Sister is here too? You just recovered from your illness. You don't have to come here every day."

"I dare not be impolite. But what happened?"

Xu Yiwen took her to stroll slowly in the mansion. "I heard from Madam Gu that the Shangshu's wife came early in the morning. After she left, mother was not very happy."

"Madam Yan?" Xu Yixing knew that the news must have spread because of the shadow guards. Madam Yan disliked Gu and must have rushed over early in the morning to humiliate and ridicule her. "She came so early, what happened?"

Xu Yixing asked the question even though he knew the answer. He really regretted not coming earlier. Otherwise, it would have been more satisfying to just listen at the door.

"I heard that my mother got stuck on the road while she was worshipping last month. I don't know who spread the news and let Madam Yan know about it."

"So that's why. Mother is too petty. It's not a big deal."

"Yi Yan, the rumors are terrible. How can that be the case? It breaks my heart just to hear them, let alone the person involved."

Xu Yiwen has never been partial. Even when it comes to the Gu family, he always sides with the right side rather than the relatives. Now that she has been humiliated, he is naturally unhappy.

"Well, then brother, are you going to tell father to catch those people who spread the rumors?"

"Forget it. Why bother mobilizing so many troops?"

As expected, he also felt that although the matter was embarrassing, it was just worrying about nothing. However, Gu could not be as carefree as him.

When I returned to the room, I heard Siqin and Sihua chattering about what happened in the morning. They were as excited as they could be.

Cai did not escape a beating in the end. Not long after Madam Yan left, Gu had Cai dragged in from the second gate and severely punished her with twenty strokes of the cane. She also beat the coachman who came back to look for a horse that day.

I heard that it was Mrs. Gu who hit her head and broke it, which saved Cai's life.

Xu Yixing grabbed the colorful glass teacup, feeling a little uncomfortable, so he called Siqin in.
