The stepsister of a peasant family in a book is spoiled by the big brothers
Chapter 543 Injured
Zhuge Congfeng left.
Puyang Qiubai walked towards Qin Huiyin and said, "Didn't you say you'd test your lessons? Let's do it today. Let me see how you've done."
Qin Huiyin nodded.
She could be indifferent to Zhuge Congfeng, but when facing Puyang Qiubai, she could never bear to say those unpleasant words to him.
"Even the teacher is holding a grudge against me and doesn't want to pay attention to me anymore?" Puyang Qiubai touched her hair.
"No, I don't hold a grudge against you."
"Then let's go. I won't let anyone hurt you." Puyang Qiubai said.
Qin Huiyin followed Puyang Qiubai to the study.
Puyang Qiubai's attendants brought out a guqin for her. Although she didn't know much about the quality of the instrument, she knew from the workmanship on it that it was definitely an ordinary piece.
She played the piece that Puyang Qiubai had taught her. Seeing him listening at his desk with encouragement in his eyes, she relaxed and started playing seriously.
On the other side, in the only attic deep in the valley, Zhuge Congfeng was kneeling there, with four elderly men standing in front of him.
"Congfeng, you've always been more rational than the lord. How could you have made such a foolish mistake this time? That woman's identity is so special, we should make good use of it. If we use it properly, our great cause will be accomplished."
"If our great cause requires forcing a little woman to take advantage of us, even if we succeed, it will be unjust and unjustifiable, and we will become a laughing stock."
"I think they're right. You were seduced by that little girl and started to act stupidly."
"Who said that?" Zhuge Congfeng had felt strange since the beginning. Not many people knew Qin Huiyin's origins, so who would come to them to tell them the news?
Although he did want to use Qin Huiyin at the beginning, he regretted it when he actually faced her.
On the one hand, he was reluctant to let her go, but on the other hand, he couldn't bear to use her, so he was caught in this dilemma.
"Don't worry about who said it, you're being too emotional this time. I'll give you two weeks, and within that time, you must bring that woman into our camp. Since she's so valuable, why not marry her? Isn't it said that she and the lord have a very good relationship? With a lord as handsome as he is, there are few women in the world who wouldn't love him. Let them get married."
"No. She has a fiancé. Her fiancé is not a pushover and is very difficult to deal with." Zhuge Congfeng felt annoyed when he heard this.
"Your third master is good at pharmacology. He knows a hypnotic technique that can change her memory and make her fall in love with the lord as soon as possible."
"If you do this, it will only make the Lord angry. You all know the Lord's temper. He will not be your puppet, allowing you to plot against him and manipulate him like this. If you anger the Lord, both sides will be destroyed. Can you afford the consequences?"
The four of them were silent.
The people of the Puyang family have the word "pride" ingrained in their bones. If Puyang Qiubai is really angered, all the plans of these years may really come to nothing.
"Masters, our great cause can be accomplished without a woman."
"Don't try to bluff us. That woman is incredibly useful. She could save us ten years of hard work."
"So many men need a woman to support them. Don't you think it's shameful?"
"It wouldn't be shameful if she became the mistress of the Wuxiang League."
In the final analysis, what they want to express is only one meaning: if you hold on to this God of Wealth, you can work ten years less.
"If you insist on doing this, you must ask the Lord for his approval. If the Lord doesn't agree, all your plans will be in vain."
After Zhuge Congfeng left, several old men gathered together to discuss.
"We can't just let this happen on our own, lord. We have to give it a push."
"My lord is very special to this woman. Even if he forces them to be a couple, given his character, he won't treat her unfairly. It's her blessing to marry such an outstanding man as my lord. What is there to complain about? After all, once a woman is married, she accepts her fate."
Zhuge Congfeng returned to the manor and heard the sound of the zither as soon as he entered the door.
Only one person on this farm had such a refined taste. Puyang Qiubai, despite his knowledge of various instruments, never played in Wuxiang Valley. The same was true of him and Congyun; they each possessed their own unique talents, and here, their minds were focused solely on their great cause, not on romantic pursuits.
He stood at the door, watching Qin Huiyin playing.
Puyang Qiubai stood by her side, occasionally giving her pointers on fingering. Thanks to his guidance, her playing improved significantly.
"My lord..." A subordinate ran in from outside.
Zhuge Congfeng stopped him and asked, "What happened?"
The man's body was covered in blood.
The subordinate said, "Miss Qianyu took us out to gather information and discovered the imperial court's minions. They are trying to capture our people. Miss Qianyu is injured, and the brothers are on their way to bring her back. I came back to report the news first. From Master Feng, Miss Qianyu needs someone to rescue her."
"Congfeng, take some people with you and bring them back." Puyang Qiubai had already heard what his men said.
"Okay." Zhuge Congfeng nodded and ran outside.
Puyang Qiubai asked, "What kind of clothes are those imperial lackeys wearing? Who do they belong to?"
"Jinyiwei."
Qin Huiyin's heart skipped a beat.
The thing she feared most happened.
If it was the Jinyiwei, it was very likely that Song Ruize brought people to the door.
But, Brother Ruize must be so angry that he has murderous intentions right from the start!
"Master, why don't you send me out!" Qin Huiyin said, "If it's the Jinyiwei, it might be that my fiancé has come looking for me."
"Let's wait for Qianyu to come back before discussing this, okay?" Puyang Qiubai said, "If it really is Lord Song who comes looking for me, I will definitely let you out."
"it is good."
Qin Huiyin and Puyang Qiubai were waiting for news in the study, but they didn't have to wait long, as Zhuge Congfeng quickly brought Ouyang Qianyu back.
"Qianyu was seriously injured," Zhuge Congfeng said. "When I arrived, Qianyu had already led her men through the secret passage, so I didn't have the chance to interact with those who were chasing her, and I have no way of knowing what happened. I can only wait for Qianyu to wake up and ask her for confirmation."
"Is Qianyu okay?" Qin Huiyin asked, "How is the doctor here?"
"We have no choice but to ask Third Master to take action." Puyang Qiubai said, and then said to Qin Huiyin, "You step aside for now."
Qin Huiyin nodded.
Maner took Qin Huiyin away.
When she returned to her residence, Qin Huiyin asked what kind of people the four masters were.
"Those four masters were retainers of the lord. When the Puyang family still existed, they served as its advisors. Later, the family suffered a tragedy, and the lord was kidnapped by bad guys. These four masters searched for the lord for seven or eight years, and finally found him and rescued him."
