Let's walk together for the rest of our lives. If the host says to leave, she will leave.

Shen Jingyi got up from the bed: "Are you angry outside? Tell me, I'll help you vent your anger."

Gu Ling should have talked to Shen Jingyi about Lian Qiao first, but looking at Shen Jingyi's face that was similar to Shen Nian'an, he couldn't help but worry.

"The servants in your Shen Mansion are really unreliable. I'm afraid they won't even know if their master gets lost one day. If it doesn't work, I'll pick two people for you."

Shen Jingyi was confused and didn't know how her servant had upset Gu Ling. After careful questioning, she learned about Shen Nian'an.

Regarding Shen Nian'an, Shen Jingyi felt that her brother was really making a fuss on the one hand, and on the other hand, she felt that what Gu Ling said was right, this group of servants was indeed unreasonable, and no one noticed Shen Nian'an when he went out.

Shen Jingyi apologized to Gu Ling on behalf of her brother: "I'm sorry, Nian'an has a bad temper, please don't bother with him, I will definitely control him in the future."

Shen Jingyi didn't believe any nonsense about celebration. She knew Shen Nian'an's character very well and knew that he must be waiting for an opportunity to take revenge on Gu Ling.

She made up her mind to teach Shen Nian'an a lesson, but saw Gu Ling looking at her with a condemning look on his face.

Gu Ling didn't see that he had a bad temper, but it was true that he had no guard against anything.

Gu Ling said earnestly: "We must be on guard against others. Shen Nian'an always runs out in the middle of the night. What should we do if he encounters danger?"

Forgive Gu Ling for not being able to imagine what Shen Nian'an's intention could be in bringing a string of firecrackers to Mianhua Pavilion to find her in the middle of the night.

She just had a headache. What if Shen Nian'an got into trouble on the way to find her and Shen Jingyi got angry with her? Without Shen Jingyi's help, she would have to spend a lot of energy to complete the task.

Shen Jingyi asked: "Did he bring a whip?"

Gu Ling frowned and nodded: "It's useless for him to carry a whip like that."

Shen Jingyi tried to explain: "Nian'an has the ability to protect himself, don't worry too much, he is very good at whipping."

He cries whenever something happens. Gu Ling thought about Shen Nian'an's expression and didn't believe that he could be that powerful.

After all, Shen Jingyi is a civil servant and doesn't know any martial arts. I'm afraid that she would think Shen Nian'an was very powerful just because he waved the whip twice.

Gu Ling shook her head, thinking that Shen Jingyi was an unreliable sister. As a good friend of Shen Jingyi, she felt it necessary to protect her friend's relatives a little to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"Okay, okay, he can protect himself. Hey, what do you think? Should I send a few guards tomorrow?"

Shen Jingyi: "..."

She felt that Gu Ling had a very strange filter for Shen Nian'an. Shen Nian'an was clearly a troublesome little bully, but in Gu Ling's eyes, he seemed like a weak and helpless being.

After talking about Shen Nian'an, Gu Ling told Shen Jingyi about Lian Qiao.

Shen Jingyi frowned, feeling that the words passed down by the ancestors still made sense: those who are not of my race must have different hearts.

Mianhua Pavilion has produced so many courtesans over the years, but it just happened to be Lianqiao that failed.

"How about I go and test the Ninth Princess myself?"

Gu Ling shook his head: "Don't worry, let's see what happens first."

It was thanks to the Sixth Princess that Gu Ling and the other two were able to target Yan Heng.

The last time the Sixth Princess rashly proposed supporting the border in the court, they thought about it and always felt that something was wrong, so they sent people to investigate the Sixth Princess carefully. During the investigation, they found that the little follower around the Eleventh Prince was a little strange.

The ninth princess Yan Heng has no power or influence. Everyone says that she is a dog to Yan Shiyi and looks down on her from the bottom of their hearts.

But people will give her some face on the surface. If she is really cowardly and incompetent, she would not dare to fight back even if she is bullied in person. Why should she work hard to save face?

Furthermore, her inexplicably close relationship with Yan Shiyi is also worth pondering.

The more they investigated, the weirder it seemed, so they decided to let the courtesan test it out first.

The two chatted until late at night and had an in-depth discussion on the future plans and deployments and Mianhua Pavilion's management methods for its subordinates.

Shen Nian'an, a young master who clearly distinguished between gratitude and resentment, believed that he would never repay kindness with enmity. He sighed, stuffed the firecrackers into the warehouse, and fell asleep early.

At daybreak, Lian Qiao, with blood on his hands, stopped playing the piano. The blood stained the piano table red. His deep blue eyes were bloodshot, as if a clear lake was stained with blood, no longer as clear and bright as before.

There was no emotion in Su Mu's eyes. He gave an order and two people came forward to lift Lian Qiao up, preparing to take him to the torture room to receive punishment.

"Wait a minute!" A man came in from outside the door, showed the third princess's badge, and said to Su Mu, "Master Su, my master invites Master Lianqiao to come into the mansion for a chat."

Su Mu: "Lian Qiao is not feeling well, I am afraid I cannot comply with your order."

The man smiled and said, "Don't worry about that, Master Su. The medicine in the Third Princess's mansion must be more effective than that in the Mianhua Pavilion."

She waved her hand, and a few more people came in from outside the door and took Lian Qiao away forcefully with an attitude that would not refrain from rejection.

Su Mu frowned and ordered, "Inform the master immediately."

The Palace of the Three Princesses.

Lian Qiao fell to the ground in a mess. The Third Princess walked up to him and said in a relaxed tone, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, how pitiful! Those warriors are like cows chewing on peony, they don't know how to be gentle with women at all."

"How is it? You want revenge?"

The Third Princess knows that there is something fishy about Mianhua Pavilion. Lian Qiao, as the courtesan carefully trained by Mianhua Pavilion, must know a lot of inside information. If she can control Mianhua Pavilion through Lian Qiao, then apart from anything else, based on Mianhua Pavilion's ability to make a fortune, this is a business that is sure to make money.

The scenes that happened today reappeared in his mind. Lian Qiao raised his head and compromised: "What do you want?"

"You can tell me everything you can and can't say." She stroked Lian Qiao's cheek, "Good Lian Qiao, don't be afraid, I will help you get revenge."

Lian Qiao lowered her eyes to hide the sarcasm in them. These so-called nobles were clearly cold-hearted, yet they pretended to be approachable.

Oh, let them fight each other.

……

The Third Princess's sudden intervention really caught Gu Ling off guard. Before she could deal with the matter, the Eleventh Prince sent an invitation to the General's Mansion, inviting her to the flower-viewing banquet.

Due to Lian Qiao's instability and the ill intentions of the Third Princess, Gu Ling had to hurry up and get close to Yan Heng. As Yan Shiyi's little follower, Yan Heng would definitely appear at the banquet. In this case, she had to go to this banquet.

At the flower-viewing banquet, Gu Ling looked at the colorful exotic flowers in front of him, thought of the cost of cultivating these things, and then thought about the natural disasters and man-made disasters outside the capital. The desire to find a wise leader as soon as possible became more urgent.

If it really doesn't work, this country doesn't have to belong to the Yan family.

"Miss Gu, what do you think of this scene? Are you satisfied?"

It’s Yan Shiyi, and of course, there’s also Yan Heng.
