Reborn Bastard Supreme

Chapter 248 The Time Is Right

The person who was wearing a crow-blue gown and who was copying the inscription with his head down suddenly raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and slowly turned his eyes: "Father, have you revealed the news?"

"No, the lord is still hiding it. It's Linjiang Courtyard, our nail return."

"Father is hiding it, there must be something to do." Hearing this, the young man showed a bit of interest, and then asked, "How is Aunt Ye?"

"what do you mean?"

Gu Zhisu put down the pen in his hand, looked down at the words he had written, while Qing Huan held the copper basin and carefully waited for him to clean his hands: "Aunt Ye has been in control of the inner house for a while, it's time for her to see , the effectiveness of her control of the inner courtyard, you go and take a look first, if Aunt Ye already knows, there is no need to do anything extra, if she doesn't know—" "Then the Linjiang courtyard..."

Gu Zhisu stood up slowly, lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and said in a low voice, "The new bride is getting started, and the maid of the old master, how can I keep it?"

"Qinghua return as soon as possible, let those who should take a rest, take a good rest." When he put down the teacup, he looked at the secret report that had just been folded on the table, and the secret report that he had buried quietly, now The nails were still hidden, and the corners of his lips curled into a hint of sarcasm, "Let those who don't want to rest, be completely busy."

"What did you say? Xin is dead?!"

Just when Hu Qin'er answered in a low voice and was about to exit the house, in the Lianhua courtyard separated by several walls, the teacup in Ye Diemeng's hand suddenly dropped, and after a crisp crackling sound, she suddenly stood up Come on, staring coldly at the rough servant girl who was kneeling in front of her, trembling all over, and said in a low voice.

"When did it happen, tell me clearly!"

"Returning to Auntie...that's...that's what happened today..."

The maid kneeling on the ground is not from the Lianhuayuan, but ran over from the Linjiangyuan. The autumn clothes on her body are a bit old. It is obvious that no new clothes have been made this year, and her complexion is not very good. It can be seen that life in the Linjiangyuan is not good. Good: "Just now the prince and the fourth young master went in to see the princess one after another. The princess didn't know what was going on, so she suddenly started to yell at the fourth young master and then the prince. The prince was impatient to listen to the concubine's scolding. Get closer. Later, the concubine's voice became weaker, and the servants did not dare to go forward. After the prince left for a while, those who were watching followed suit, and the servants dared to go forward to look..."

Seeing that she stopped talking about the key points, Ye Diemeng's brows were deeply marked, and she stared at her word by word and asked: "Then what?"

The servant girl trembled in horror, a little afraid to look at Ye Diemeng, and hesitated for a long time before saying: "Then, when the servants saw that the time had come... the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor was ready, so they reported it and sent it in. Reported for a long time under the gauze curtain, but did not hear the princess responding, the servants thought that the princess fainted, and did not dare to delay the princess's condition, so they immediately went forward to check, who knows—" Having said this, there is no need for the rest said.

Ye Diemeng knew about Xin's death during this period of time, but she did not expect it to come so soon. Thousands of thoughts ran through her mind, and she continued to ask with a cold face: "Who else knows about the death of the princess? "

"My lord...Your lord knows."

"Didn't you say that the prince has left? Why do you say he knows now?"

"Auntie, please spare my life! Auntie, please spare my life!"

Seeing her frightening expression, the servant girl didn't dare to hide it from her, she quickly continued to speak like beans pouring out of a bamboo tube: "Your servant did not tell a single lie, the prince has indeed left, but I don't know why, it seems that something is wrong later, He brought the steward back again, and seeing that the concubine had passed away, he ordered people to surround the Linjiang Courtyard, preventing the slaves from entering and leaving... The slaves were very scared, and at that time they were still standing far away, and they knew someone else Maid, this is the only way to escape—" Ye Diemeng heard her say that Gu Wenmian sealed the yard, and his heart sank: "You mean, the prince sealed the Linjiang courtyard because he didn't want people to know, Xin news of his death?"

The maid who came to report the letter was just a poor servant girl. In the past, if there were people in the courtyard, or if Mrs. Xin was well, she would not be able to get to the front. However, during this period of time, Mrs. Xin is no longer favored. For sure, she was dying of illness and was about to die soon. Some capable maidservants in Linjiang Garden had already run out one after another, leaving only these poor maidservants who had to continue to serve Xin.

"The servant doesn't know what the prince thinks, but the servant wants to save her own life. Now the princess is... the servant is from a lowly background, and there is a younger brother to take care of at home. If she is betrayed because of the princess, please take care of her." For today's sake, save the slaves!"

When Ye Diemeng heard her say that she wanted to save her life, she believed her a little. After pondering for a moment, she finally waved her hand, and pressed her thoughts into the bottom of her heart little by little: "Get up. Since you have worked so hard to report the news , I will naturally not treat you badly. Over at the Linjiang Courtyard, do you still want to go back?"

The servant girl turned pale and shook her head again and again: "Go back to Auntie, slave... I dare not go back... I hope Auntie will take me in!"

"That's fine." Ye Die dreamed that she wanted to stay, a dark light flashed in her eyes, she turned to look at the big maid beside her, and whispered, "Taoqin, take her down to wash for a while." Fan, it's settled, come see me again."

Taoqin knew the importance of this matter, although she didn't know what her aunt's plan was, after thinking about it for a moment, she lowered her body and replied: "Yes, auntie."

Until late at night, the rain in Mingdu not only did not stop, but fell even more heavily. The pear trees in Rongliyuan shook violently, and the sound of rattling mixed with whistling suddenly woke up people who were sunk in the darkness. Inside the tent, the young man threw off the quilt and lay barefoot on the bed, glanced at Qing Huan who was guarding outside the screen, still sleeping soundly, casually pulled his outer shirt from the wood, put it on, walked to the window, and pushed the carved wood away. The window, the dark eyes are deep and bottomless.

Because he woke up in the middle of the night, he was still looking at the autumn rain by the window, Gu Zhisu got up slowly the next morning, an hour later than usual, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the happy couple outside the bed curtain. Already waiting, there are copper pots, willow branches and other things beside me.

"Greetings to the young master."

"Everyone get up." Gu Zhisu rubbed his temples, his eyes were dazed for a while, before he fully woke up, he got out of bed and stood up straight, and let Qing Huan beside him come forward and put his shirt on, "Lin What happened to Jiangyuan?"

"Back to young master, there is no movement in the Linjiang courtyard, but Xin's body has been restrained by the prince."

"The corpse is all restrained, but there is still no movement? It's a novelty." Gu Zhisu said as he took the willow branch from Lianzhu's hand for brushing his teeth, dipped it in green salt, put it in his mouth, brushed it a few times and began to rinse After wiping it with a cloth handkerchief, he asked with a smile, "Yesterday, in the Linjiang Courtyard, did a servant girl escape?"

Lianzhu nodded in response: "Yes, that maid went to Aunt Ye's yard, and now she has become Aunt Ye's maid." "Not from Qionghua?"

"Not from Qionghua, but..."

Hearing Lianzhu's hesitant voice, Gu Zhisu's eyes flashed, and he turned his head to look at her: "En?"

Lianzhu didn't dare to hide it from him: "It's Qionghua's people who helped him escape."

"It's a big idea."

"I also ask the young master to forgive me."

"Those who don't know are not guilty, and those who do not do are not guilty. What crime do you have?" Gu Zhisu waved his hands and walked past her with a wave of his sleeves. Although this was not what he expected, the result was the same. The servant girl sent the letter to avoid Gu Wenmian's suspicion, "Let's get up." "Thank you, young master." Lianzhu was relieved to see that the master was not surprised, but he still felt strange in his heart. He expected Ye Diemeng to hear the news. She refused to let it go, but she didn't expect that she already knew about this matter yesterday, but she kept her expression calm, "But Aunt Ye heard the news, but she didn't have an attack yesterday..."

"That's because she doesn't know what Gu Wenmian wants to do." Gu Zhisu understood a little bit why Ye Diemeng knew about Xin's death, and after Gu Wenmian hid the news, she wisely chose not to know anything, "She If you don't ascend to the position of princess for a day, you have to act cautiously, otherwise, what if someone catches you and the cooked duck flies away?"

However, the cooked duck that she expected had already flown away, and Xin's death was covered up by the news. Gu Wenmian didn't even mention a word to her. A fool can see that something is wrong. She is working so hard now. I'm hiding it, but I still have fantasies in my heart.

Lianzhu also quickly figured out the joints, nodded and said in a low voice: "The prince has been hiding the news from the princess, but it is not a long-term plan..."

Gu Zhisu shook his head: "Father won't keep this news to himself, he's just waiting for the right time."

"suitable time?"

The two carved wooden doors were opened, Gu Zhisu stepped out, stood in the middle of the yard, and breathed out his long sword. Not long after he started the scientific research, he began to practice swordsmanship every day, and he has achieved some success in it now After practicing a set of sword skills, he let out a long breath, inserted the long sword back into the scabbard, drank a cup of tea, and then slowly said: "I still remember that a while ago, Langya Murong's How long has it been since a prostitute secretly lived in Huguo Temple?"

"About a month."

Gu Zhisu sat at the table and put down the teacup: "One month...do you know what two days are?"

Looking sideways at Lianzhu shaking his head, Gu Zhisu raised his eyebrows and asked again with a smile: "Can't figure it out?"

"It's the day when the concubine goes out of the palace to go to Huguo Temple to worship the Buddha." Seeing him pondering for a while, but still not knowing, Gu Zhisu sighed softly, shook his head and said in a low voice, "One month is enough time." The members of Langya Murong Clan, make all preparations and show your favor to the concubine."

Lianzhu hesitated for a moment when she heard the words, but still couldn't figure it out: "But... why did you show your favor to the concubine?"
