Who says sleep is not spiritual practice?

The Fourth Young Master has been staying in the Ziyan Courtyard, never cultivating his own influence, and never reaching out to the military, which also resulted in no one under his command to trust.

Even the two maids who served him were impure.

Under such circumstances, how to compete with the second son for the position of son?

One word, difficult!

"Isn't it a bit abrupt that Junior Brother called me to act today?"

"I thought I should hide for a while longer, and wait for your martial arts to improve, and then stand up to build momentum for you."

Jiang Shan thought that after Jiang Qingyu got the inheritance of the old sword master, he should endure the humiliation for a while longer, and wait until his cultivation level was promoted before competing with the second son for the position of the son.

At that time, it is the best time to express your attitude.

And exposing herself too early will only put Jiang Qingyu in a more dangerous situation.

With the ruthlessness and determination of the second wife, she will definitely not do the stupid thing of raising tigers.

But Jiang Qingyu shook her head and said:

"I have been backing down for more than ten years, but I don't want to back down today."

"Brother, you don't have to worry. Being high-profile is not necessarily a bad thing at all. Seeing that I am self-motivated, my father will definitely pay more attention to it. I won't let me die in the palace so easily."

"Brother, do you believe it?"

"Even if you don't make a move today, someone else will clear the obstacle of Guergen for me."

Jiang Shan couldn't deny it.

No matter how much Jiang Qingyu was looked down upon by others, he was still a son of the prince's mansion. If his hands and feet were mutilated in his own mansion, he would not be the only one who would be ashamed.

The entire Jubei Palace will become the laughing stock of the world.

In order to maintain the dignity of the palace, many dark guards who were only loyal to the King of Rejecting the North would naturally not allow this to happen.

"I have to say that Guergen is really a fierce general. Although his personality is flawed and he is impulsive and irritable, with the improvement of his martial arts practice, his congenital incomplete intelligence will gradually make up for it. When that time comes, he will definitely Make a formidable enemy."

Jiang Shan made a beheading motion and suggested:

"How about I find time to kill him?"

With Gu Ergen's arm severed today, he and Jiang Qingyu were completely hated by Gu Ergen, and it was almost impossible for the two parties to reconcile.

It is wisest to nip the threat in its infancy.

But Jiang Qingyu was not worried, instead she looked at Jiang Shan with a smile:

"Senior brother, don't think I don't know, Gu Ergen's right arm has not been turned into powder at all."

"You played a trick under the eyes of everyone. On the surface, you destroyed the broken arm, but in fact you secretly hid the broken arm."

"Senior brother wants me to try to subdue this person?"

As soon as this remark came out, Jiang Shan was stunned.

"You, how do you see through?"

Jiang Qingyu smiled without saying a word.

Jiang Shan couldn't calm down for a long time.

He thought that his techniques at the time were clever enough to confuse the real with the fake, but he was immediately exposed...

It's not a good feeling.

At this moment, the image of the Fourth Young Master in front of Jiang Shan's heart became more and more unpredictable!

And he finally began to believe that it was not accidental that the old sword master chose the fourth son as the only heir.

Jiang Qingyu smiled and stretched out her hand:

"Brother, if you can trust me, you might as well hand over the severed arm to me."

"I'm going to subdue this person."

……

this day.

Jiang Qingyu went to bed early as usual.

Since his bedroom was smashed, it would be difficult to repair it for a while, so he slept in the room of the servant girl Xiaoman.

The little girl's room is simply furnished, with only a bed, a set of tables and chairs, and a wardrobe.

There was a dressing mirror on the table, several boxes of expensive but rarely used rouge and gouache, it could be seen that the little girl was reluctant to wear heavy makeup on weekdays, so she used it sparingly.

The quilt on the bed had been exposed to the sun, so it was very warm when you got into it, but the quilt was too short to cover Jiang Qingyu's head and feet.

There are several fictional books under the pillow, all of which are stories about the love between children, some about the noble son falling in love with the maid and running away with others, and some about the little prince refusing to marry the princess for the sake of a commoner girl...

Jiang Qingyu read a few pages and felt that it was not as good-looking as the secret books in the Sutra Pavilion, so she fell asleep.

He has a lot to do tonight.

Meanwhile, in another room next door.

The two maids in Ziyanyuan changed their usual temperament of laughing and squabbling, and they no longer called good sisters. Instead, they seemed to meet enemies. Each of them held a dagger in their hands, and each pointed the tip of the knife at the girl. another person.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Chapter 12 My sister also likes the son

Tonight, Lichun, the maidservant of Ziyan Courtyard, put on a brand-new red dress, with gorgeous makeup on her face. Her figure is tall, fat and thin, her words and deeds are noble, and her frown and smile make people ecstasy .

Like a jewel in the palm of a wealthy family.

In fact, not only tonight, but every night, Lichun would redress herself while her master was asleep.

Only when she sees the elegant face with heavy makeup painted in the mirror, will she remember her true identity and the purpose of coming to Ziyanyuan to hide for more than ten years.

"Sister Lichun, you are so pretty."

The little girl, Xiaoman, stared at Lichun's graceful figure unscrupulously, and praised her without hesitation.

She looked down at her condition and made a sad and unconvinced expression.

I have to admit that the body of a 16-year-old is incomparable to that of a 23-year-old.

"The same thing, I often hear the young master say."

Li Chun accepted the little girl's compliment very calmly, even though the other party was holding a dagger tightly in his hand:

"When I was 11 years old, I met my son for the first time. He asked me what my name was. I replied that I can call you whatever you like. Those who enter the palace are not entitled to have their own name."

"That day happened to be spring, and the seven-year-old son picked a few flowers from the yard and put them on my head with his own hands."

"He named me Lichun."

"Lichun is the first solar term of the year. My son said that he has no special pursuit in this life, as long as he raises 24 girls who are as beautiful as flowers and jade, his life will be worthwhile."

"My name is Lichun, and I'm the first one."

Li Chun pursed her red lips, and looked at the little girl provocatively.

Xiao Man counted on his fingers:

"The Beginning of Spring, Rain, Waking of Insects, Vernal Equinox, Qingming Festival, Grain Rain, Beginning of Summer, Xiaoman..."

"Then I am the eighth?"

"But……"

"With so many girls, can the young master's health handle it?"

"..."

Lichun was speechless.

At this time, shouldn't you ask where all the six girls have gone except the two of us?

I can't answer even if you ask me.

"I'm curious, what is the purpose of Sister Lichun's coming to Ziyanyuan?"

Xiaoman played with the dagger in his hand, frowned and muttered:

"I can see that my sister doesn't like Ziyanyuan's aloofness. You are an ambitious woman, and your background must be very unusual."

"Let me take a guess."

"Most likely you were forced to come to Ziyan Courtyard to be an undercover surveillance son. Most of the women who were born in powerful families can't help themselves and have no right to control their own destiny, and you are the same. But my sister is not willing to be ordinary, so she always Change into luxurious clothes in the room at night, reminding myself to fight against fate."

"The sword that Jiang Shan made in front of the Sutra Pavilion today showed you a turning point."

"If I'm not wrong, the young master's first appearance will lead to his death. My sister will attack him immediately and leave the Ziyan courtyard, right?"

Li Chun smiled slightly, her red lips were as bright as blood, and her temperament was graceful and luxurious.

She glanced at Xiaoman, her eyes were full of teasing:

"Little girl, are you here to kill me?"

"You can't be... in love with the Fourth Young Master, right?"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Man nodded seriously:

"Yes."

"Why, can't I like him?"

Lichun didn't understand:

"You have only been in Ziyan Courtyard for less than two months, and the total time you have met with the young master is less than ten hours. How come you fell in love with him?"

"Just because he teases you every day after getting up?"

"Little girl, although I can't guess your origin for the time being, you must have a good background like me, and you have other plans to get close to the young master?"

"Actually, we can work together."

"Let's talk about your reason for coming first. Maybe we can turn enemies into friends and get what we need."

Xiaoman snorted coldly:

"Sister Lichun, don't talk to me, I'm not stupid at all!"

"You just have to remember, anyway, I will always be the son's maid, and I won't eat inside and out like someone else!"

Lichun laughed at himself:

"People's hearts are unpredictable, who knows?"

"When I first came to Ziyanyuan, I always wanted to let the young master be more confident, so that I could kill him earlier to complete the task, but after living in Ziyanyuan for a long time, I expected him to be mediocre for the rest of his life. Don't argue about anything, then I can always be by his side..."

"Oh, I don't want the young master to die either."

When Xiaoman heard this, he was immediately surprised, as if he had found someone of the same kind:

"Sister also likes the son?"

"I knew it!"

Lichun looked puzzled, a little confused about the situation:

"You, believe it?"

"Don't you think I'm telling a lie?"

Xiaoman put away the dagger and said cheerfully:

"Believe, why don't you believe it?"

"That's what it says in the books!"

"The servant girl is an undercover agent sent by the enemy to monitor the young master, but she has been in love with the young master for a long time, so the maidservant will not hesitate to make an enemy of the entire family power for the sake of love! In the end, the two of them either fell off the cliff together, or eloped, or lived in seclusion in the paradise..."

The little girl became more and more excited as she talked.

But Lichun was a little confused when he heard:

"In a book? What book?"
