All the people in the Hou Mansion are evil, and they will be repaid tenfold after rebirth

Lu Yundi looked at Ye Wanxue, a hint of appreciation flashed in her eyes, and she gently patted Ye Wanxue's hand: "Sister, don't worry, I will always be by your side to help you through this difficult time."

Ye Wanxue looked at Lu Yundi gratefully: "Madam, thank you."

The two smiled at each other under the candlelight, reaching a tacit understanding. In this quiet night, undercurrents still surged in every corner of Zhenxing Marquis's mansion, without any disturbance.

The night grew darker, and the candlelight in the west wing danced in the silence, illuminating the figures of the two women.

After Jiang Lili left, the room fell into silence. Ye Wanxue looked at Lu Yundi, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. In the mansion, Lu Yundi was the only person she could rely on.

"Madam, Jiang Lili..." Ye Wanxue hesitated to speak. She didn't want Lu Yundi to be troubled by her.

Lu Yundi smiled gently. She had seen through everything. "Sister, Li Li is just a child. She speaks her mind. You don't have to take it to heart. In this mansion, you must learn to be tolerant and learn to protect yourself."

Ye Wanxue nodded. Lu Yundi's words were for her own good. She raised her head, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes: "Madam, I will remember your teachings. No matter what, I will continue to move forward with strength."

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the door. The door curtain was lifted again, and this time it was the second son of Zhenxing Marquis Jiang Yinyi who came in. He looked guilty, with a hint of regret in his eyes.

"Aunt Ye, I...I'm here to apologize." Jiang Yinyi lowered his head, his voice trembling slightly.

Ye Wanxue smiled slightly. She looked at Jiang Yinyi's back, and a complex emotion surged in her heart.

Jiang Yinyi is not a bad person by nature, he is just young and ignorant, so he did such a thing.

"Mr. Jiang, you don't have to be like this. I have forgiven you for what happened that day." Ye Wanxue's tone was gentle. What Jiang Yinyi needed more at this moment was comfort and encouragement.

Jiang Yinyi raised his head and looked at Ye Wanxue, with a hint of gratitude in his eyes: "Auntie Ye, I know that my behavior that day hurt you. I apologize to you and hope you can forgive me."

Ye Wanxue gently patted Jiang Yinyi's shoulder: "Mr. Jiang, you are a good child, but you must learn to restrain your behavior in the future and don't make Madam worry anymore."

Jiang Yinyi nodded. He looked at Ye Wanxue with a firm look in his eyes: "Auntie Ye, I will remember your words. In the future, I will study harder and never let you down again."

Lu Yundi looked at this scene and couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

......

"Tell me, how did Young Marquis Chu get here from over there?"

Lu Yundi used a tinder to light the oil lamp in the warehouse, walked a little further inside, and illuminated Chu Qirui's body.

Chu Qirui stood under the dim light, his face slightly pale, his eyes flickering, and he seemed a little uneasy.

"Madam, I..." Chu Qirui hesitated, not knowing how to explain.

Lu Yundi raised his eyebrows and stared at him fiercely: "Last time in the tavern, I told you that the feng shui map is not something you can touch. Why did you sneak into the warehouse secretly? Do you think the warehouse of my Zhenxing Marquis Mansion is your backyard?"

Chu Qirui lowered his head, not daring to look directly into Lu Yundi's eyes: "Madam, I do have something important to entrust to you, but this is a matter of great importance, and I have to take a risk. Please forgive my recklessness this time."

Lu Yundi snorted coldly: "What is the geomancy map you are looking for? Why is it so mysterious?"

Chu Qirui hesitated for a moment, then said, "Madam, that geomancy map is related to a secret of the Western Wei Dynasty. I know you may think I am exaggerating, but I swear that this is true. If I find that geomancy map, I can reveal a secret that is related to the safety of the Western Wei Dynasty."

Lu Yundi frowned. She knew Chu Qirui was not a rash person and his words should have some truth. But she was still worried: "Even so, you can't sneak into the warehouse privately. If the Marquis knows about this behavior, you and I will be punished."

Chu Qirui looked at Lu Yundi anxiously: "Madam, I know I was wrong. But this matter is of great importance, and I have to do this. Please believe me, as long as I find the geomancy map, I will leave Zhenxing Marquis Mansion immediately and will not cause you any more trouble."

Lu Yundi looked at Chu Qirui, with a complex emotion in her eyes. She knew that although this young man acted recklessly, his original intention might not be bad. After a moment of silence, she finally said, "Well, since you are here, tell me first, why do you need this geomancy map."

Chu Qirui's eyes flashed with hope, and he quickly replied: "Madam, to be honest, I have an elder who holds an important position in the army. He told me that this geomancy map marks a secret location of the Western Wei Dynasty. There are important relics left by our ancestors hidden there. If we can find them, it will have a great impact on the safety of our country."

Lu Yundi nodded slightly. She understood Chu Qirui's anxiety. But her worries did not diminish: "Even so, you can't enter other people's warehouses without permission. This is not only disrespectful to my Zhenxing Marquis Mansion, but also disrespectful to the entire court."

Chu Qirui's face was heavy, and he took a deep breath: "Madam, I know I was wrong. But I really had no choice. My elders said that if we can't find this geomancy map in the near future, the important relic may fall into the hands of others, and the consequences will be disastrous."

Lu Yundi pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Okay, I understand. But you must promise me that from now on, you will not touch anything in my house without permission. Otherwise, I will definitely punish you severely."

Chu Qirui nodded quickly: "Madam, I promise you that I will never do it again."

Lu Yundi's eyes revealed a hint of tolerance, but his tone was still firm: "In this case, let's first see if there is the feng shui map you need in the warehouse. However, you have to understand that even if I find it, it does not mean that I will give it to you."

Chu Qirui nodded nervously and followed Lu Yundi to search the warehouse carefully. Under the dim light, there were all kinds of treasures, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, but it seemed that there was no feng shui map they were looking for.

"Madam, there is no feng shui map here." Chu Qirui said with some disappointment.

Lu Yundi smiled slightly, looking at Chu Qirui's disappointed expression, she couldn't help but feel a little sympathy. She pondered for a moment, then said: "Perhaps, the feng shui map is not here. Have you ever thought that it might be hidden somewhere else?"

Chu Qirui raised his head, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes: "Madam means..."

Lu Yundi nodded slightly: "I heard that some important things will be hidden by their owners in a very secret place, such as a study, a garden, or even an inconspicuous corner. You might as well start from these places, maybe you will gain something."

Chu Qirui's eyes flashed with gratitude, and he bowed deeply: "Thank you, madam, for your guidance and understanding. I will look for it according to your advice."
