Xiao Ronger also stayed in the warm room of Mingxin Hall all night.

"Madam, drink some ginseng soup."

Hongxiu brought a bowl of steaming ginseng soup and handed it to Xiao Ronger.

Xiao Ronger had no appetite, so she motioned for Hong Xiu to put it down and asked, "Is the body disposed of properly?"

"It's been handled." Hong Xiu put down the ginseng soup and said worriedly, "Madam, if the young master wakes up and tells the Pavilion Master the truth..."

Xiao Ronger closed her eyes: "What a bunch of rubbish, they can't even kill a child!"

Hongxiu asked, "Madam, do you want to contact the master?"

The master she was referring to was Xiao Ronger's biological father, the leader of the Qianshan Sect.

As the grandfather of Liuying, Sect Leader Xiao should have drunk a glass of wedding wine for his granddaughter, but her nephew's marriage was scheduled for April this year a year ago.

Xiao Ronger said calmly: "I can handle this little thing."

"Yes."

Hongxiu said no more.

Xiao Ronger said again: "Go and call the Second Master."

Hongxiu went to Gongsun Yu's yard.

Gongsun Yu came to Mingxin Hall and saw Xiao Rong'er still dressed. He asked in surprise, "Sister-in-law, you didn't sit here all night, did you?"

Xiao Ronger said: "Go and see your elder brother."

Gongsun Yu said in embarrassment: "I can't get in here either."

Xiao Ronger glared at him and said, "Go and give Wuyou some medicine. By the way, check to see if he's dead."

Gongsun Yu gasped.

Xiao Ronger had been pretending for so many years, she was tired of it. "Are you surprised? You're helping your husband raise another woman's child. Do you really think I'm generous and don't care?"

Gongsun Yu sighed, "I know you've been suffering these years."

Xiao Ronger laughed at herself, "What's the point of you knowing? You say one thing to my face and another behind my back? You say you're doing this for my own good, but secretly you're working for those two bastards? You've always only listened to your eldest brother, and have you ever thought of me as your sister-in-law? After all, we're brothers, and I'm just an outsider."

Gongsun Yu said hurriedly: "Sister-in-law, please stop saying that. In my heart, you and my elder brother are equally important. No matter how much I take care of Wuyou, I will only take better care of Liuying and Ziyu. I can tell who is the true bloodline of the Gongsun family."

"Well, put this into Shang Wuyou's medicine."

Xiao Ronger said this and threw a medicine bottle to Gongsun Yu.

Gongsun Yu took it in his hand, his face changed slightly: "Sister-in-law, do you want me to poison Wuyou?"

Xiao Ronger looked at him straight in the eyes: "What? You don't dare anymore?"

Gongsun Yu sighed again: "Sister-in-law, you know my brother. If I dare to poison Wuyou, he will kill me."

Xiao Ronger laughed sarcastically: "It turns out that he regards a bastard as more important than his own brother. It's not poison, but just medicine to make him sleep for a few more days to prevent him from talking nonsense."

Gongsun Yu held the medicine bottle and said, "I understand, sister-in-law. I'll go right away."

He took some medicine for wounds, hemostatic powder and ginseng soup from the kitchen and went to his eldest brother's backyard.

He looked back to make sure no one was following him, then grabbed a rope hidden under a big tree and pulled it gently.

Then he walked into his eldest brother's practice room.

In fact, the eldest brother was not practicing here, but in a more hidden secret room.

After waiting for a while, a stone door was slowly opened.

He entered a long corridor.

When the stone door closed, Hongxiu, who was hiding behind the door, returned to Xiao Ronger's side.

"Saw?"

Xiao Ronger asked.

Hongxiu said, "I see. The mechanism is hidden behind that jujube tree."

Xiao Ronger snorted coldly.

However, after Gongsun Yu entered the secret passage, he did not immediately put poison in the medicine.

Thinking of the other party's bruises and weak breath last night, Gongsun Yu felt that it was unlikely that Shang Wuyou was alive, and there was no need to do anything unnecessary.

"Don't blame Second Uncle for being ruthless, but right now, the best situation is for you to die."

Now that Shang Wuyou is dead, my sister-in-law no longer has to raise other people's children, and Zi Yu no longer has to compete for favor with others all the time.

There is also a legitimate reason to kill Meng Xiaojiu.

In this way, the firefly can be saved.

He stood in front of the last stone door and waited for a long time before the stone door was opened.

However, the person who opened the door for him was not his elder brother, but Meng Qianqian.

Gongsun Yu was stunned: "You are not dead?"

Meng Qianqian asked back: "Why should I die?"

Gongsun Yu coughed lightly and asked seriously, "How is Wuyou?"

"It's okay."

Meng Qianqian turned around and went back to the yard.

The stone door slowly closed.

Gongsun Yu was stunned for a while.

Being fine means... being rescued?

"Where's my elder brother?"

he asked.

Meng Qianqian pointed to the right.

Gongsun Yu carried the food box and walked into the house in two steps. A suffocating chill hit him in the face.

He shuddered, and then saw Shang Wuyou lying on the icy bed, and his elder brother guarding the bed.

"Big brother!"

He walked to the icy bed, glanced at Shang Wuyou's pale face, and asked in a low voice, "Brother, is Wuyou okay?"

Gongsun Yanming said: "It's all right for now."

Gongsun Yu murmured, "That girl really has some skills."

The injury was so serious that he thought he couldn't be saved.

He hesitated, looked at the figure in the courtyard, and asked, "Brother, how should we deal with that girl? She knows our secret passage, should we -"

He made a gesture to silence the witness.

Shang Wuyou has fallen asleep again.

Gongsun Yanming looked at Shang Wuyou deeply, then stood up and left the secret room.

Meng Qianqian sat quietly on the stone bench in the yard.

It is called a courtyard, but it looks more like an open-air ancient well, with only a small light above the head.

Gongsun Yanming sat down opposite Meng Qianqian.

Faced with his dominance, Meng Qianqian remained calm. Such a character and bearing are rare in the world.

Gongsun Yanming took out two medicine bottles and placed them on the stone table: "Two medicine bottles, one is poison, and the other is tonic. Choose one. Whether you can walk out of here alive depends on your luck."

Meng Qianqian's eyes moved back and forth between the two medicine bottles.

You can't see it or smell it, so you can only rely on luck.

Meng Qianqian picked up the medicine bottle on the left, pulled out the cork, tilted her head back, poured the pills into her mouth, and swallowed it without hesitation.

Then she stood up and bowed, "Thank you very much for the medicine, Master. I will take my leave now."

She walked towards the stone door, raised her hand, and pressed the mechanism.

The stone door slowly opened in front of her.

Without looking back, she walked into the wrong passage and gradually disappeared from Gongsun Yanming's sight.

Gongsun Yu came out of the secret room curiously.

One sound after another was heard, indicating that she had opened one stone door after another.

When only the last stone door was left, there was suddenly no movement.

Gongsun Yu: "Brother, is she poisoned?"

Gongsun Yanming picked up the tea on the table and took a sip slowly.

Just as he was about to collect the bodies, he heard a loud bang and the last stone door was opened.

Gongsun Yanming raised his head and his expression froze.
