"Uncle, you are hiding something from me."

Xie Yiyao looked at Gu Yulang with certainty. In fact, she already had a guess in her mind, and this was also the reason why she had to come to Lushan Academy.

After all, the previous dream made her feel a little uneasy, and she felt as if something was out of her control.

In addition, what her aunt said, that her uncle had once encountered horse bandits, she always felt that her nightmares and her uncle's experience were signs of something bad.

"I...I'm not hiding anything from you!"

Gu Yulang spoke with a guilty conscience. He looked at Feng Junyi before turning to Xie Yiyao and stammering:

"My Lord, you are not feeling well. It is cold in the mountains and you should not stay here for long. Please return to the capital immediately!"

Xie Yiyao looked at Gu Yulang, who was obviously afraid of something, and remained silent.

"Uncle, this beautiful mountain scenery is good for my recovery."

Feng Junyi politely and calmly refused.

Gu Yulang was choked by Feng Junyi's words and didn't know what to say for a long time.

"You guys follow me into the library first, and then we can discuss it."

Gu Yulang looked around nervously, then pulled Xie Yiyao and followed him into the academy.

Xie Tingzhou made very appropriate arrangements for Gu Yulang. He had a small courtyard in Lushan Academy, which was elegantly decorated. It was indeed a good place to study.

Xie Yiyao once again realized the privileges of the aristocratic family. Before coming to the academy, she thought that her uncle lived in the same dormitory with her classmates just like she had read in the novels before.

As a result, my uncle actually had a small courtyard in the academy!

What's the difference between this and a college student owning a detached villa in college?

Sure enough, rich people know how to enjoy life no matter in ancient times or in the end times!

"Uncle, tell me what happened. Don't hide it from me. Since I came to you, I know something."

Xie Yiyao walked into the room, sat down lazily, and poured herself a cup of tea.

Well, the tea from this mountain really has a unique flavor!

After hearing what Xie Yiyao said, Gu Yulang seemed to be hesitant to speak.

However, seeing Xie Yiyao staring at him, Gu Yulang finally compromised.

"Girl Yao, I suspect someone is targeting me. Fortunately, I listened to you and practiced Kung Fu to strengthen my body after studying these years. I still have some ability to protect myself. Otherwise... otherwise I might have already..."

Gu Yulang didn't say anything else, but Xie Yiyao already understood what Gu Yulang said.

"So, ever since the incident when I went out with my classmates last time, I have been very careful and never leave the academy."

"Uncle, do you know who he is?"

Xie Yiyao's face looked a little solemn.

"Could it be the Yangcheng Marquis Mansion?"

Gu Yulang asked somewhat uncertainly.

"No, the Luo family has long been frightened by Xie Tingzhou, and they don't dare to have anything to do with us now."

Xie Yiyao asked with certainty.

"Girl Yao, I originally thought that the library was quite safe, but since yesterday, I always felt like someone was watching me."

Gu Yulang thought about it and decided to express his feelings over the past two days.

He had a feeling that if he hid something from his niece, it might lead to disaster.

"Uncle, I'm hungry! Let's go out and eat something. I heard that there are a lot of delicious food in Lushan Academy. Take me there to enjoy a feast!"

After hearing what Gu Yulang said, Xie Yiyao did not respond, but changed the subject and talked about food.

Her words caught Gu Yulang off guard and he didn't react immediately.

A thief can steal for a thousand days, but you can't guard against thieves for a thousand days.

She couldn't hide in the academy all day like her uncle to protect herself.

She was about to go out and wander around in a swagger. She wanted to see who wanted to kill her uncle and what their intentions were!

Gu Yulang originally didn't want to take Xie Yiyao out of Lushan Academy.

After all, he felt it was very dangerous to leave Lushan Academy, but looking at Xie Yiyao's expression that did not allow rejection, he had to compromise.

Gu Yulang always felt that he should follow his niece's arrangements.

"My Lord, you should rest in the library. We will bring you some food."

Gu Yulang said respectfully to Feng Junyi that they might encounter danger if they went out. If something happened to the eldest prince if he went with them, their Gu family would not be able to bear the consequences!

"It doesn't matter."

Feng Junyi spoke calmly, making it impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

"Take him with you. It's not good for a grown man to lie sick in bed all day long!"

Xie Yiyao looked at Feng Junyi with a look of disgust.

Taian was so angry that his eyes widened when he heard this!

His master was seriously ill, where else could he go if not lying in bed sick? !

Feng Junyi was not angry after hearing what Xie Yiyao said. He really didn't want to lie in bed sick every day like before.

The imperial doctors kept advising him to go out less and walk less, saying that he was seriously ill and needed to rest, but over the years there had been no sign of improvement in his health.

On the contrary, he had been eating pills and running around with Xie Yiyao recently, so he ate a lot and slept well.

Not only do I not feel tired, but every morning when I wake up I no longer feel groggy as before. Instead, I feel refreshed!

"Lushan Academy is the cradle of Dadeng's civil servants. Almost half of Dadeng's civil servants come from here, so this place has always been protected by the court."

"Are you afraid that it will be difficult to find the murderer who murdered your uncle here, so you deliberately lure him out?"

Feng Junyi looked at Xie Yiyao and asked softly.

Although he had guessed it a little, he still had some doubts. After all, this girl was too young to have such profound insights.

Also, isn’t this girl afraid of actually luring the snake out and getting bitten by it?

"Clever! That's what I meant!"

Xie Yiyao looked at Feng Junyi with admiration. She really didn't expect him to be so smart.

Feng Junyi looked at Xie Yiyao with a look of "what are you looking at?"

"What did I do to give you this illusion?"

Xie Yiyao said seriously:

"You killed your father's lover in front of him. This is not a smart thing to do."

After hearing what Xie Yiyao said, Feng Junyi did not answer, but went on his own way.

Seeing that he didn't want to talk to her any more, Xie Yiyao turned to her uncle.

"Uncle, this place is so beautiful. Are you in a good mood studying here?"

After hearing what Xie Yiyao said, Gu Yulang showed a hint of joy on his face:

"Indeed, your father really put a lot of thought into choosing such a great place for me to study. To be honest, I never knew that studying could be so enjoyable."

After listening to Gu Yulang's words, Xie Yiyao felt emotional in her heart. Even the ten years of hard study that people often talked about seemed to have become a pleasure for the rich.

There is really a huge gap between people's lives.
