Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy

Before he knew it, he had left the armory. Xu Yixing was worried about the Emperor's Sword, so he asked someone to open the door and go in to take a look.

Everything in the armory is the same as before, and the displays have not been moved. It seems that my father has indeed not paid attention to these things in recent years and may have hardly come here.

"Will my father come here often in the next few years?" Xu Yixing wanted to know more about the guarding servants.

"No, in recent years, the master has only allowed people to enter and leave the warehouse when gifts are given or weapons are given. He himself does not come. The weapons that the master often uses are all outside, not in the warehouse, so there is no need for him to come."

"As expected. By the way, how long have you been here? Have you ever heard if there is anything missing from the armory?"

"I have been managing the armory for a short time, only two years or so. Every item is recorded and nothing has ever been lost." The servant's face was full of pride when he mentioned this. Nothing had ever gone wrong under his management.

"Bring the book here for me to see." Xu Yixing was flipping through the so-called weapon book while matching the items on the shelf with his eyes. The servant was right. Everything was recorded. After flipping through many pages, he finally saw the record of the red sword.

"Where is this Chi Yan? Why haven't I seen him before?"

The servant came forward to take a look and immediately replied, "I have never seen this sword before. Judging from the date, it must have been stored in the warehouse a long time ago. Maybe it has been there since the mansion was founded."

"Is this not okay with you guys?"

"No! I heard that in the past, the young ladies and young masters liked to give things from the armory to others, either as a bet or as a gift. This is normal, and the master never pursues it."

"Ah..." This is true. I had urged Yiwen to go to the armory and take it. It seems that my father really doesn't know the origin of this sword. Maybe it's just like Lu Anyuan said, it's just a family legacy, and he just put it in the armory casually.

"Madam?" Lu Anyuan's voice suddenly came from outside the door. Xu Yixing was delighted and walked out with a smile on his face. It was indeed him.

"How did you come!"

"I heard that my father-in-law is not well, so I came to see him and give him some medicine or something." Lu Anyuan was wearing a thin cloak and stood straight outside the door. Suddenly, an autumn wind blew, and the fallen leaves covered his body, making him look like a young general, which stunned Xu Yixing.

"Mr. Yao is already trying his best to treat him. You might as well go and take a look."

Lu Anyuan was stunned, and reached out to brush off a dead leaf from his hair: "Of course I have seen it, otherwise how would I know you were here."

"Oh oh oh, I was careless. Hahaha. Come on, let's go to my yard." Xu Yixing casually handed an ingot of silver to the servant guarding the armory. The servant thanked him repeatedly with a smile on his face.

After leaving the armory, the two of them slowly paced in the corridor: "Are you going to see the sword?"

"Yes, I saw the record of that sword. It's called Chiyan. My father probably thought Yiwen or I gave it away as a gift and didn't care at all."

"Well, it seems that the old general really doesn't know the origin of this sword." Lu Anyuan pulled Yixing, feeling a little uneasy for a moment, not knowing what went wrong.

Although this emotion was not expressed out loud, Xu Yixing still caught it. "Pfft, I guess you are worried about the departure in two days? Actually, it's nothing. Even if my father's poisoning is related to this, he can't stop you from leaving. Besides, my father is still alive and well, so maybe these are two different things."

"Yes." Lu Anyuan also knew that even if General Xu was poisoned, his schedule had already been agreed upon and would definitely not be changed. What he was worried about was Yixing.

"Since this has happened, I won't go with you. Otherwise, if something happens to my father, there will be no one to take care of him." Xu Yixing expressed his concerns directly to avoid embarrassment.

Sure enough, Lu Anyuan's expression relaxed, but then he became worried again: "But you really haven't been out for a long time. This time I could have taken you out to relax."

Xu Yixing understood Lu Anyuan's dilemma. It was inconvenient to bring a woman with him when visiting the troops, not to mention the long journey with countless dangers. He was worried about his own safety.

"Let's go to another place next time. It should be snowing in the North by now. It's freezing! If I have a chance next time, I still want to go to Qinan to have a look."

"I'm sorry, maybe your father was poisoned this time because of me..."

"But maybe it's not because of you." Xu Yixing held Lu Anyuan's hand, his fingertips slightly cold. "Don't blame yourself, I've figured it out. If this man poisoned you to stop you from going, then you can't do what he wants. Don't worry, I'll bring Mr. Yao with me, nothing will happen."

Lu Anyuan pinched her back vigorously, his tone slightly jealous and sour: "Why don't you bring your little monster?"

"Mr. Yao is so nice and pleasing to the eye. I want him. You can take my son away. Even if we have to exchange hostages, you have to bring him back to me safely!"

"Hahahaha." Lu Anyuan relaxed and buried her hands in his waist, feeling reluctant to let her go: "I was thinking maybe I could get pregnant on the way, but now it seems you can only wait until I come back."

"How do you know I don't have a baby now? Maybe I'm already pregnant."

"Then I have to think about coming back early, otherwise my little baby will cry because he can't see his daddy!"

After having enough fun in Xu's house, Lu Anyuan had to go back. He was about to leave, and there were still a lot of procedures to learn. Besides, his father was waiting for him to report on General Xu's condition.

Seeing that her family's affairs did not affect Lu Anyuan's travel plans, Xu Yixing breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't know why, but she felt uneasy when it came to her father.

It just so happened that Lu Anyuan was leaving the day after tomorrow, so she simply had her things moved directly back to the Xu residence, ostensibly to take care of her parents, but actually to secretly investigate the poisoning.

The news of her father's poisoning could not be concealed from everyone, so she only hoped to make it public after Lu Anyuan left, so that no one could make a fuss about it. It was for this reason that she did not send a letter to Yiwen of Wansong Academy according to Xu Qian's instructions. He had not returned for so many years, so it was better for him not to come back now.

September 25th is an auspicious day, extremely lucky.

Xu Yixing saw off the honor guard that went to entertain the troops at the north gate and stood silently on the top of the city gate for a long time. Lu Anyuan took away the thing called Red Flame, which was actually the Emperor's Sword. As soon as he arrived in the northern border, the good news would be sent over immediately.

The emperor will certainly be happy that the Emperor's Sword has reappeared in the world, and he will also make a big note of it in his book of merit. His resume will be even better, and it also means that he will be one step closer to the position of crown prince.

As for myself, I have to go back and take good care of my father who is still in a coma.
