The front hall of the Valley of Fantasy.
Wang Yuanting looked at the sunset and listened to a good story...
The flood in Qiongzhou that year was really terrible, and Mr. Li's life was saved by a farmer. There are two grandparents in the farmer's family. The old farmer's hard work for a year was washed away by the ruthless flood. He couldn't help but burst into tears and burst into tears.
Master Li was kind-hearted, so he invited his grandfather and grandson to return to Liangzhou City together. Although the old farmer did not want to leave his hometown, the farmer had to starve to death without crops. For the sake of his granddaughter, who had just turned sixteen, he had no choice but to agree to Master Li's proposal. .
This story was only beginning, and Wang Yuanting already guessed what would follow: "Your master is a blessed man. If I guessed correctly, the farmer's granddaughter must be Li Changqiu's biological mother."
Wang Yuanting curled up his lips, feeling that marriage in this world is really interesting. Who would have thought that two people separated by a generation would come together because of this kindness.
Li Ergou nodded. He didn't know what the master had in mind when he took his benefactor's granddaughter as his concubine. However, this kindness resulted in a good marriage. Unfortunately, the second wife was not very lucky and she lost her life in her twenties...
Li Ergou rubbed his hands and forced his thoughts back to the second young master: "The second wife left after giving birth to the second young master. The second young master lost his mother's protection since he was a child and suffered a lot.
The master is almost forty and has a second young master. He is very happy to have a son at this old age and loves the second young master even more. The second young master also strives for success. He is good at reading and is often praised by his master.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. When the second young master was ten years old, he fell seriously ill and his brain was damaged. After that, he had a splitting headache whenever he read a book. The good seedling was ruined. "
At this point, Li Ergou's eyes turned red again, and he choked with sobs. A trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, but it was only for a moment, completely replaced by sadness and helplessness.
Wang Yuanting waited quietly for him to calm down, clear his thoughts, and boldly guessed: "You mean, the second young master's illness is related to the eldest young master?"
Li Ergou nodded affirmatively: "Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I can't be wrong. The eldest young master and the second young master are six years apart, and they never play together. That day, the eldest young master suddenly asked the second young master to go fishing with him, and I felt something was wrong. .
As soon as we arrived at the river, the eldest young master ordered me to go to the back mountain to pick fruits, leaving him and the second young master alone by the river. When I came back, I saw that the second young master had fallen into the river and hit his head on a stone. Lots of blood. "
"This is a bit difficult to handle." Wang Yuanting frowned slightly. This kind of thing is not uncommon in wealthy families, but without human or physical evidence, it is impossible to convict based on the one-sided words of a servant.
Li Ergou raised his hand to wipe his face. In just a short while, he looked quite haggard, and his voice became hoarse: "I know that I can't convict the young master, so I didn't even say anything to him. But I think he seems to be guilty." Knowing something, I bought a house for the second young master within two years, and the second young master moved out of the Li family when he was fifteen years old."
Wang Yuanting just nodded without saying anything. Every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite, and no one else can interfere. What's more, the palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh, so it's not easy for Mr. Li.
Li Ergou looked at Wang Xi next to him gratefully. He unknowingly told this man too many secrets in his heart, and now he felt much happier.
"This is the best time to have a drink." Wang Yuanting sighed, but he didn't have the time, so he tilted his head. Li Ergou said: "Go find him, don't drink too much. I'll take you there tomorrow." place, and then return to Liangzhou City."
When Li Ergou heard that Brother Wang Xi had also returned to Liangzhou City with them, he immediately became energetic. If Wang Xi was here, the second young master would definitely not scold him!
"Okay, okay!" Li Ergou agreed repeatedly and walked towards Li Changqiu's residence. He was ready to put aside all his worries for the time being and have a good drink.
As the night grew cooler, Wang Yuanting put on his night clothes and prepared to go to the apse. In fact, he was not very confident about this expedition, but this might be his last chance.
"Master, think twice!" Wang Yuanting's personal guards were very worried. Normally, they would be fully prepared before taking action. Only two explorations were too reluctant.
"Xiao Qi doesn't need to persuade him anymore." Wang Yuanting has decided to leave. He doesn't want to miss this rare opportunity. It will be difficult if he leaves the valley tomorrow and comes back again.
"If something happens, go find Elder Luan immediately, and don't forget about Li Changqiu." Wang Yuanting repeatedly warned his personal guard Xiao Qi. He didn't want to delay Li Changqiu's return to Liangzhou City because of his mistake. .
Although reluctant, Xiao Qi still agreed: "Master, don't worry, if I can't go to Liangzhou, I will send secret guards there. When have I failed to do what you told me?"
Xiao Qi was a little annoyed today, not as calm as usual, because he knew how difficult it was to break into the back hall of Fantasy Valley. The patrol guards were just like the palace. If something happened to Wang Yuanting, it would be a dead end.
"Don't worry, I have this." Wang Yuanting saw Xiao Qi's concern and took out the whistle that Li Changqiu had lost. With him, he could temporarily dispatch the Feng family guards.
"But, you only learned one sentence." Xiao Qi said with a hint of reproach. It would have been great if he had learned a few more sentences from Elder Luan that day, but he only learned one sentence and could only use it once. "
"That's enough." Wang Yuanting grinned, patted Xiao Qi's shoulder, and disappeared in a flash...
The back hall and the side courtyard.
Mrs. Feng was slightly drunk in the middle of the night. She came out of the back hall with a blushing face and walked to the side hall alone.
As soon as she entered the side hall, she couldn't hold on. She felt dizzy and tilted her body. She fell directly towards the pool beside her and was about to fall into the water.
She drank so much that her body became weak and she could no longer use her strength. She could only curse in her heart: Feng Siniang! If you make me fall, you'd better have something important to do!
"Be careful!" A strong arm blocked Lady Feng's slender waist, and a man held Lady Feng in his arms.
The familiar words and familiar chest made Lady Feng sober up. It's him, bastard Zhang Ping!
"Who wants you to save me? Go away!" Lady Feng twisted her waist with all her strength, which became an unintentional tease in Zhang Ping's eyes.
Zhang Ping's throat rolled, he suppressed the urge to pick her up by the waist, hugged her slender waist tightly and carried her to the side hall. Many guards along the way saw the two people's intimate behavior, and they all lowered their heads and did not dare to raise their heads. Zhang Ping did not let go until they were outside the gate of the side hall.
"You guys, aren't you the most taboo about being intimate with me in public?" Lady Feng raised a proud smile on her lips. She never let others help her when she was drunk, so she was sure that Zhang Ping would come.
"The master of the house misunderstood. I was just ordered to take you to the side hall." Zhang Ping said, standing at the entrance of the side hall, obviously standing guard here.
Only then did Madam Feng realize that Zhang Ping had resigned from his duties as a protector and actually went to the side hall to work as a small guard. Wasn't this a slap in her face?
After thinking about it, Lady Feng couldn't think of anyone who would dare to openly disagree with her. It must be Feng Siniang who hated her for betrothing her to the Li family in Liangzhou, so she thought of this way to piss her off!
"This girl is getting more and more mischievous." Lady Feng grabbed the hem of her skirt that was in the way and immediately walked into the side hall.
"Hey! The head of the Feng family is here, and you are not welcome from afar!" Feng Siniang was wearing a pink skirt and white shirt. She was soft and sweet with a hint of cuteness, but the words in her mouth were full of yin and yang.
She was seen holding a pen in her hand, lying lazily on the imperial concubine's couch. There were portraits of a man at her feet, on the couch, and on the floor.
Lady Feng seemed to be accustomed to this scene. She carefully picked up the portraits on the ground and looked at them carefully. Each one had a different expression.
I saw the man sometimes frowning in thought, sometimes laughing loudly, and sometimes opening his mouth in shock. Each picture was painted so vividly, as if he was above the hall.
Isn't this Wei Yiyan?
On the roof of the side hall, Wang Yuanting looked at the scene in front of him, feeling surprised and happy. He really came to the right place!
Originally, Wang Yuanting planned to go to Feng Sanniang's side hall to investigate, but he found that there were not many guards there. Instead, Feng Sanniang's side hall was surrounded by guards in circles.
Could it be that Feng Siniang's marriage was forced?
With this idea in mind, Wang Yuanting chose to guard more side halls. He wanted to see what the Feng family was up to. With half the extra guards, Wang Yuanting was naturally more cautious and spent a lot of effort. He had just seen the portrait of Wei Yiyan, the eldest son of the Wei family, and he knew for sure that Feng Siniang must know about the young master of the Wei family.
Lady Feng calmly picked up the portraits one by one and said with a sneer: "If Fourth Sister likes painting so much, I will ask the eldest young master of the Li family to prepare more good Hui ink and rice paper."
This is not the first time Feng Siniang has acted like a monster at night. Since Feng Siniang’s marriage was decided last month, Feng Siniang has been coming to the side hall two or three times a day. She was really tired today, and she was inevitably a little resentful. Coupled with Zhang Ping's incident, she didn't have a good temper.
"Get your dirty hands off." Feng Siniang became angry when she heard this. She sat up and threw the brush out of her hand!
What she cared about was never the painting, but the person in the painting, Wei Yiyan who could laugh, make trouble, make her happy, and accompany her in her sorrow!
The ink on the pen was not dry yet, and as the pen barrel rotated, the black ink spread across the entire palace, blooming like peach blossoms on the main hall.
While the black peach blossoms gradually bloomed, Feng Siniang waved her hand and took out the black pottery xun in the repellent ring, put it to her mouth and played it softly. As the simple and ethereal sound resounded through the hall, the black peach blossoms on the ground floated in the wind without any surprise, following the sound of the xun.
They gradually rose up and stayed in the air for two moments. In the next moment, the black peach blossoms flew quickly and gradually gathered together to form an extremely sharp black sword.
"It's a good move to turn ink into flowers and flowers into swords." Lady Feng was not to be outdone. Since Feng Siniang was going to duel with her, she had to show some skills.
She pinched the magic formula with her hand, quickly stretched out two fingers, and drew countless circles in the air. The circles formed countless dazzling golden haloes. As the countless haloes were superimposed, a shining golden gun appeared, pointing towards the Xuan Sword. Attacked.
