After being dressed as the second male, she was bent by the female lead

Although the matter of Zhong Qiqi has come to an end, the residual temperature affected by the Zhong Qiqi incident is far from over.

Even if Zhong Qiqi kept tight-lipped about what she knew, the sudden disappearance of Yunyan was not something that Zhong Qiqi could keep silent.

At least the mastermind behind the scenes will be able to roughly guess Yunyan's situation without receiving any news from Yunyan in the near future, and thus further deduce the progress of Lianyi's investigation.

Of course, if Zhong Qiqi revealed these things, the situation would be even worse.

Not only the fact that Lian Yi and Shu Qingwan know martial arts leaked out, even their relationship will be exposed to the public, and the progress of the investigation will be more difficult afterwards, and it may stimulate the mastermind behind the scenes, making them Kill Lianyi in advance.

For this reason, in the next few days after the two returned from Zhong Qiqi's birthday banquet, they were on guard at every level, waiting for the assassin to throw himself into the net.

But I don't know if Zhong Qiqi didn't tell the story, or because the mastermind behind the scenes has already noticed the trap they set up. In short, they waited for three days, but there was no movement from the assassin.

During these three days, Lian Yi had been ostentatiously passing through the market every day, and opened his door wide at night, even pulling away most of the patrolling people under the wall, but he still couldn't lure the assassin out.

Three days passed in a flash, and after discussing with each other, the two decided to dig another big hole for the mastermind behind the scenes, and then wait for the urn to catch the turtle.

They have analyzed and compared each time the assassin appeared before, and vaguely summed up some rules.

The first time an assassin appeared was when Ruan Linyi died. At that time, the Ruan family had just emerged and their business was booming.

The second time, after Ruan Lianyi drowned at the Flower Appreciation Conference, the night when Lianyi came here, it was the first time "Ruan Linyi" appeared at the gathering of the children of the family after five years, and he was quite famous Ladies of all ages.

After repeated testing, the people behind the scenes confirmed that Lian Yi was indeed Ruan Linyi, and they couldn't wait to secretly assassinate the killer that night.

The third time was after the birthday of the supervisor of ceremonies, the new products of the Ruan family were loved by the nobles of the imperial city, and a batch of new products were delivered in short supply, and the business of the Ruan family began to flourish.

Soon after, the assassins came again.

The fourth time was the second night after Lian Yi and An Lian got married. When Lian Yi and Shu Qingwan were having a secret conversation in the room, the assassins were besieged by Lian and Shu as soon as they appeared, and finally fled.

The timing of the assassin's four appearances is very subtle, each time when the Ruan family's popularity suddenly rises due to special events.

So they guessed that his rule was that as long as the mastermind behind the scenes sensed that the Ruan family was about to gain popularity, he would ask the assassin to find an opportunity to kill Ruan Linyi, or give the Ruan family a warning.

Moreover, they also analyzed that the mastermind behind the scenes seemed to be very afraid that their assassination of Ruan Linyi would be exposed, so they did not dare to assassinate Ruan Linyi directly with great fanfare.

Later they wanted to understand why.

As soon as Ruan Lin had an official position, if the imperial court ordered the official to die for no reason, it would inevitably arouse the panic and attention of the nobles in the imperial city, and thus intensify their efforts to investigate the whole story of the incident, and the risk of exposure of the black hands behind the scenes would greatly increase.

Of course, it is not that Lian Yi has encountered similar assassination incidents during the day, and the aftermath of this incident is quite large. After that, not only the city patrol captain joined the investigation, but the city's defense was also tightened for half a month.

They guessed that this should be a simple temptation made by the black hands behind the scenes. After seeing the consequences, they put away their hands and feet in fear, only daring to stretch out their tentacles in the dark night and shout.

Regarding the daytime assassination, Lian Yi remembered that it was probably after the third assassination.

Once she took Shucheng and a few servants to check the accounts of a slightly remote cloth village. As soon as she left the city, she met a few masked men who looked like robbers.

But those people didn't know where they came from. Although they rushed to Lian Yi's face, their combat effectiveness was completely weak, and they fled after a short fight, and the remaining ones were exhausted.

Shucheng was afraid that if they diverted the tiger away from the mountain, it would be bad for Lianyi, so he stopped chasing him.

But the strange thing is that there seemed to be some other unknown people who came to help at that time. The individual is completely missing.

In short, after that, Lian Yi would bring more thugs when he went out, and the black hands behind the scenes might be afraid of the power of the imperial city, and never showed any evil thoughts during the day.

But having said that, in fact, the third time Lian Yi chased the assassin out, after meeting Shu Qingwan in a suburban village, Lian Yi analyzed the assassin's behavior by himself.

So on the day she and An Lian got married, she actually made simple arrangements, but for some reason, the assassin didn't come that day, until the next day, when she and Shu Qingwan talked in the room for a long time, the assassin came. Long overdue.

This matter was something they hadn't analyzed and understood. After all, on the day of the wedding banquet, there were many banquet guests in the Ruan Mansion, mixed with fish and dragons, so it was the best time to strike, but the assassin had to wait until the next day to come.

Whether there is something wrong with them internally, or they already knew that Lian Yi will be prepared, this behavior really makes them completely unable to disassemble it.

However, a fairly good time will soon be ushered in, and that is the day when the tribute is paid three days later.

Nowadays, brocade with intricate patterns is popular among the nobles in the imperial city. If the brocade that Ruan Mansion paid tribute this time can become popular among the nobles, then the Ruan family will definitely become a celebrity in the imperial city in the future, and their status will be higher than that of others. It was much more expensive in the past, and the Ruan family's business will naturally flourish accordingly.

In this way, the mastermind behind the scenes can't sit still, and will always find time to give "Ruan Linyi" a blow.

After discussing with Shu Qingwan, Lian Yi and Shu Qingwan decided to add another bargaining chip to the man behind the scenes, which was to announce that An Lian was pregnant after paying the tribute, further stabbing the man behind the scene and forcing him to react.

When the time comes to lure the assassin into the game, capture him thoroughly, and torture and interrogate him carefully, she will not believe that she will not be able to find out the slightest clue of the mastermind behind the scenes.

Time flies, and the planned time is getting closer.

In the early morning of the next day, after arranging everything at home and explaining about An Lian's fake pregnancy, Lian Yi took a few boxes of brocade that had already been woven to Pei's Restaurant to report. The little imperial merchant who delivered the tribute has arrived.

She purposely showed off the brocade they had woven in front of everyone, clamoring how hard it was for them to weave these brocades and how precious the brocade was, and it would definitely lead to this year's trend.

Everyone present, including Pei Yanfeng, looked as usual, and only boasted a few words about Yunjin politely, but said nothing more.

After the handover procedure was completed, Lian Yi deliberately didn't leave, and for the first time, like other princes of the family, he stayed and chatted with other people. It didn't take long for the other side of the family to play out.

Lian Yi ordered An Lian to pretend to faint shortly after she left, and then deliberately asked the family servant to come to Pei's restaurant to report to her. At that time, everyone present in the restaurant would know the news of Mrs. Ruan's fainting , thereby increasing the attention of this matter.

In this way, Lian Yi can easily release the news of An Lian's pregnancy the next day, and then the news will become more real because of this episode in the restaurant, and it will be more convincing to the people behind the scenes.

Lian Yi calculated that the time was about the same, and the book disc came in hurriedly with the servant as expected.

The boy ran to the side of Lianyi, bent down to salute, and said in a low voice and panic: "Young master, the young lady at home has fainted, and the old lady said, if you are done with your work here, you should go back quickly."

Lian Yi pretended to be surprised, and quietly amplified her voice: "What? An Lian fainted? Did you call the doctor?"

"It's called." The servant hurriedly replied: "The old lady has already sent someone to find the doctor, and the meeting should be here."

Lian Yi hurriedly made a bow to the family members next to him, pretending to show a guilty and anxious expression: "Brothers, Mrs. Jing is ill at home, so I will take my leave first, and see you later."

Shu Qingyan stood the closest, and he heard it most clearly, and immediately said politely: "It's all right, since the siblings are sick, brother Ruan should go back as soon as possible."

Lian Yi pretended to say goodbye one by one in a panic, then rushed out with the entourage, and then pretended to be very anxious, got into the carriage and drove away.

In An Lian's room in the west courtyard of Ruan's family, when Lian Yi arrived, Doctor Zhang was already inside.

When he saw Lian Yi came back, he followed the plan and pretended to say to Lian Yi in front of everyone: "Mr. Ruan, congratulations, young madam is happy."

People around who knew the inside information also showed joyful expressions appropriately. An Lian cooperated most tacitly, shy and crying with joy, pretending that she was really pregnant with a baby in Lianyi.

Lian Yi also pretended to hold Zhou's hand and shouted excitedly, "Mother, I'm going to be a father, I'm going to be a father".

All of a sudden, there was joy everywhere.

The next day, Lian Yi deliberately released the news, and pretended to be overjoyed, rewarding all the servants and maids in the mansion with money, pretending to make everyone feel happy.

After the "hard publicity" by the servants of the Ruan Mansion, the news that the young lady of the Ruan Mansion is pregnant spreads among the aristocratic family in a short time, and there is an endless stream of people coming to congratulate her.
