I became a vicious stepmother and I went to the sea to feed my three children.

Yichun Garden

Bai Jingyuan followed behind Gu Yichen, looking at him with curiosity.

"Weren't you the one who disdained coming here before? Why did you come with me today?"

Bai Jingyuan spoke secretly, his eyes fixed on Gu Yichen.

Gu Yichen glanced at him sideways and asked, "Isn't this your favorite place?"

As the two were talking, they had already arrived at the private room on the second floor.

"Hey, isn't this Mr. Bai? How come you have time to come here today?"

The person who spoke was a brothel owner who was dressed in fancy clothes and was looking at Bai Jingyuan with a smile.

"Hey, Mother Tao, long time no see, is Xiao Taohong here?"

Hearing his words, the madam's eyes flickered, she hesitated for a moment, and then spoke quickly.

"Here!"

She held a fan in her hand and gently patted Bai Jingyuan's shoulder.

"If Xiao Taohong knew that you, Mr. Bai, were coming here today, she would be so happy!"

Bai Jingyuan smiled happily. Gu Yichen glanced at him and then turned to look at the madam.

"Okay, get someone over here."

After saying this, the madam left the private room. Bai Jingyuan also reacted and turned abruptly towards Gu Yichen.

"I'm talking to you, you—you're not interested in our little Taohong, are you?"

Hearing this, Gu Yichen, who had just taken a sip of water, almost vomited it out.

"What nonsense?"

Bai Jingyuan suddenly remembered again.

"Oh, yes, you have a tigress at home. However, if that tigress knew that you came to Yichun Garden, you..."

Before he could finish the rest of his words, he was scared back by Gu Yichen's look.

"Don't worry, I won't say a word about what happened today."

He looked reassuring and even held out a hand.

"We're here today for serious business. No matter what happens, stay calm."

"what?"

Bai Jingyuan looked up in confusion and even made an incredible sound.

"What do you mean by calm? Why should I be calm? Isn't this good now?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Taohong came over.

"Xiao Taohong, you're here? Did you miss me?"

When he saw Xiao Taohong, he ran up to her happily, with stars twinkling in his eyes, as if he really liked her.

Gu Yichen: ...

Where's the calmness you promised?

"Bai Jingyuan."

Hearing Gu Yichen's voice, Bai Jingyuan curled his lips.

Okay, okay.

"I wonder what you two would like to hear today?"

"Let's play a song about a country breaking through mountains and rivers."

Gu Yichen looked at her and spoke expressionlessly.

"Why do you suddenly want to listen to this kind of music?"

Hearing his words, Bai Jingyuan turned back in disbelief.

Why do I have to listen to such a sad and tragic song for no reason?

"Since it is the guest's request, I will naturally cater to his wishes."

‘Zheng——’

Before long, the sound of a pipa could be heard, each note so pleasant that Bai Jingyuan soon became obsessed with it.

"Tsk tsk, I have to say, the song sung by Xiao Taohong is the most touching."

Gu Yichen's gaze was always on Xiao Taohong, but Xiao Taohong's expression did not change at all.

After the song was over, the pipa was put away.

"The song is over, I will take my leave now."

"Wait, the song is over, and things between us are not over yet, so there's no rush to leave."

As soon as Gu Yichen finished speaking, Xiao Taohong hadn't opened her mouth yet when Bai Jingyuan suddenly ran over from the side.

"You're not falling in love with Xiao Taohong too, are you?"

Gu Yichen glanced at him and ignored him, instead focusing his gaze on Xiao Taohong.

"You were openly an opera singer at Yichun Garden, but you never imagined that you were secretly colluding with important officials at the imperial court, committing treason and framing court officials. Should I call you Little Peach Red or Youye today?"

"Youye?!"

Bai Jingyuan breathed in unison and said in a lost voice.

"How could Xiao Taohong be Youye? Are you——"

Got it wrong?

He didn't say the rest, but he knew it in his heart.

Gu Yichen would not have said this if he did not have sufficient evidence.

He suddenly became speechless and just looked at Xiao Taohong.

At this moment, the originally sad, resentful, and weak little Taohong suddenly changed her expression.

"As expected of the renowned War King of Da Zhao, when did you discover this?"

At this moment, Xiao Taohong had already put the pipa aside, and there was a bunch of silk strings in her hand.

That was her weapon.

"Xiao Taohong, you——"

Bai Jingyuan widened his eyes in disbelief. He had never imagined that his favorite actor was actually a spy from the enemy country.

But how could this be possible? She clearly looked like a delicate and frail daughter.

"Just a while ago, you were so clever as to attack me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to find you."

Even if Bai Jingyuan was there, it would be impossible for them to find out that he was still alive so quickly.

What's more, the Divine Doctor Valley has been closed to the public for a long time. We cannot doubt the Divine Doctor Valley just because Bai Jingyuan is from the Divine Doctor Valley.

But this suspicion cannot be dispelled. However, the people around him are the most suspicious.

I didn't expect that an actor from Yichun Garden could have such deep thoughts.

"Hahaha, that's right, it's all my fault. However, even if you know now, it's too late. We Xiliang will definitely win a great victory!"

"you--"

"Bai Jingyuan, Master Bai, you are as foolish as ever. If it weren't for your relationship with the War King, do you think I could have been so hypocritical with you for so long?"

boom--

Bai Jingyuan only felt that the sky above him suddenly cracked.

This was the first time I liked such a girl, and the result was like this.

He was about to take a step forward when he was pulled back by Gu Yichen.

He suddenly came to his senses. Yes, the Xiao Taohong now was no longer Xiao Taohong. If he got close to her again, the machine might be killed by her.

"Now that I've exposed you, I naturally have a way to catch you. Do you really think I would come here alone after knowing your identity?"

"Besides, since we already know your identity, how could we not be prepared?"

Hearing this, Xiao Taohong suddenly had an ominous premonition and looked up suddenly.

"what have you done?"

"Of course... catch them all in one fell swoop."

As soon as Gu Yichen finished speaking, a group of people rushed in from outside and surrounded her.

"Today, I will capture you."

After all, it was a family affair of the Jingyang Marquis' Mansion, and Qin Ruhai really couldn't say much.

Although he did not get the exact answer from Qin Ruhai, Xu Zisheng had a rough answer in his mind.

"Qingyao, let's do as we discussed before. I'll go back and take care of things first."

"Don't worry, Brother Xu."

Bai Qingyao waved her hand.

After all, this matter is related to her interests, so it is impossible for her not to take it seriously.

After saying goodbye to them, Xu Zisheng hurriedly left the island.

Instead, Aunt Luo glared at Qin Ruhai fiercely.

Everything was fine originally, but he said too much. However, after all, it is someone else's family matter, so a physical examination is indeed necessary.
