The stand-in didn't take it seriously for three years, and the minister was furious when they b

Clearly hearing the emotions in Beitang Yi's tone, Si Chao and Ying Feng looked at each other and held their breath unconsciously.

After tapping the tabletop with his fingertips, Beitang Yi continued to ask:

"Do you know who she is looking for?"

Shaking his head, Yingfeng reported again:

"This is just Leng Yun's guess. She asked for details about the pit viper and took away a bottle of snake-attracting dew, which clearly revealed her intention to get rid of a person without anyone noticing."

"So, Leng Yun guessed that she asked Leng Yu to follow the housekeeper to find the specific address of the so-called hidden gambling house in the Marquis' Mansion not for money, but for this person."

“They don’t know who it is.”

"My Lord, do you want to protect this person secretly? If we really want to take action and ensure that everything is foolproof, we may need to use the Vipers from the Ten Thousand Poisons Pavilion. Leng Yun and the others are also waiting for your instructions."

"How could a girl in the boudoir be so cruel?"

In these three years, he had never realized that this soft-hearted girl had such scheming and tactics!

With such courage, how could she be controlled by the Marquis's Mansion and sent to his bed? If she was pretending and had other intentions, how could she let someone come to him?

This doesn't seem to make sense either.

Just as I was wondering, Si Chao interrupted:

"There must be something wrong with the abnormality. This woman is not simple. I'm afraid she can't stay with me."

"Lord——"

Ying Feng raised his hand to accept the order, but a cold and stern look came over him first, scaring him so much that he retracted his hand halfway. The long tail tone drew out a follow-up of "inquiry":

"What do you mean?"

"Even if the deal goes through, the love is still there. Since I've given her the person, she's hers."

So Leng Yun and Leng Yu had to cooperate with her in carrying out her orders? Including killing people?

After exchanging glances, Si Chao and Ying Feng were both obviously shocked. Before they could say anything else, Beitang Yi spoke first:

"The King of Hell cannot stop a ghost seeking death. Pass the order down. No one is allowed to make trouble or interfere with the fate of unrelated people on their own initiative."

Knowing that the last sentence was Beitang Yi's attitude, and that the order was also given to Leng Yun and Leng Yu, Ying Feng quickly responded:

"My subordinate understands."

"Since her eye color is different, then keep paying attention to her. She's a fox and I don't believe she won't show her tail! Also, Si Chao, Long Ling Sect once had a saint with heterochromatic eyes. I don't want too many people to know the details. Since she has heterochromatic eyes, let's make her heterochromatic eyes more obvious. How about blue?"

After Beitang Yi said this, Si Chao knew exactly what he was thinking:

"You have a sharp tongue but a soft heart. You still can't get past her."

Three years ago, a similar face had broken his bottom line, and now, he was even willing to risk his own life to protect that substitute? I really don't know if it was fate or karma.

He shook his head, moved his lips several times, and finally nodded:

"I obey my orders."

……

After staying in the yard for a few days, Mu Lianzhi finally got through her menstrual period and felt refreshed.

Hearing that she was going out, Chun Miao was so shocked that she dropped the comb in her hand to the ground:

"Miss, you absolutely cannot do that. If you were recognized, wouldn't you be drowned in spit?"

Although the people of Chiyan Country are open-minded and there is no custom that prohibits women from going out on the streets, married women with a little bit of means rarely show up in public unless they are forced to do so by life. What's more, she is now the daughter-in-law of a marquis and a widow.

She is wearing a red dress in this melon field...

What would people think if they knew this?

She had hardly left the mansion in the past three years. What happened today?

Looking at her as if he had seen a ghost, Chun Miao almost reached out to touch her forehead:

"The old lady and the Madam will not allow it. If you need anything, I will do it for you."

Looking at the beautiful image in the mirror, Mu Lianzhi picked out a few pearl hairpins and put them on herself:

"Chun Miao, your young lady is only a widow, not a prisoner. Moreover, the three-year validity period has expired. What does the Marquis' Mansion have to do with it? Even if I insist on remarrying now, who can do anything to me?"

It all depends on whether she is willing or not.

This sound was not only for Chunmiao, Xia Xiu was so scared that the teacup in her hand knocked directly onto the table:

"Miss, be careful what you say."

After a few big strides, Xia Xiu eagerly made a "hush" gesture to her:

"Miss, even if you think so, you can't say it out loud. If people knew you had this idea... the first place that would not tolerate you would probably be the Marquis' Mansion."

A woman's reputation is greater than heaven!

Although the law does not bind her, how could the Marquisate allow her to ruin the reputation of the Marquisate?

They are weak and have no family to rely on. The Marquis' Mansion cannot stop them openly, but crushing them to death is as easy as stepping on an ant, right?

The Marquis' Mansion will not let her live as she wishes, and I'm afraid she will have no choice but to commit suicide for love.

Xia Xiu was so anxious that her face changed. She was afraid that Mu Lianzhi would tell her, and she was even more afraid that she really had such thoughts, which would be dangerous.

Standing up, Mu Lianzhi smiled, and then tapped each of them on the forehead lovingly:

"So, I'm giving the Marquis' Mansion a heads-up and paving the way for myself. Do you really want to be trapped with me in this place without sunlight for the rest of your life?"

Mu Lianzhi lowered his voice and glanced in the direction of Leng Yun and Leng Yu with a burning gaze:

"With Lord Beitang here, no one will dare to touch us for the time being. Therefore, we have to fight for ourselves and find a way out before our usefulness disappears."

She tapped their foreheads again before straightening her expression:

"My hairpin is broken and I have to go and fix it myself. Chunmiao and Lengyun come with me. Xiaxiu and Lengyu will be in charge of the house. Go and get ready."

Her face turned cold, and they were unconsciously oppressed by her aura. When the four of them came to their senses, they had already squatted down at the same time and said in unison:

"Yes."

……

As expected, everything was difficult at the beginning. At the door, the three of them were stopped by the guards:

"Are you blind? You don't even recognize the Second Madam?"

"Please forgive me, Madam. There are rules in the mansion. Without a pass token and a notice from the steward, I cannot let you pass."

"Are you stupid? I told you that our wife has something urgent to do and will be back soon."

"Miss, please don't embarrass me."

Unexpectedly, Chun Miao's soft and hard tactics failed to get through the door. Seeing that the guard's attitude was quite polite, Mu Lianzhi spoke at the right time:

"Chumiao, forget it."

It seems that there is a reason why the Marquis' Mansion can still stand firm. It is better managed than she expected.

"Don't make it difficult for this young man. You and Leng Yun can go to my sister-in-law's place again."

"Let's just say I admire Miss Cai Cui from Baimingfang. I heard that she has the elegance of the former Crown Princess. I also want to see her and buy some things. I haven't been out of the house for a long time. If I really lose touch with the current fashion here, I will be despised by others."

Baimingfang is the brothel second only to Qicailou. If she remembered correctly, the next woman who was close to Beitang Yi and had a name and surname was her. She looked more like a princess than herself.

"Yes."

With just one look from her, the two of them immediately understood what she meant and turned around and walked away.
