As soon as Yi Zhiyu said the words, the second brother didn't say anything, but Jing Zhaoqiu stared at him curiously, wanting to know what Yi Zhiyu's second sentence was.

"That lifeless thing came to the door."

Jing Zhaoqiu's heart buzzed.What kind of riddle is this thing that doesn't know how to live or die?

But the second brother understood immediately, and a trace of helplessness appeared on his calm face since he entered the door.

"Don't let him know about me."

Yi Zhiyu sneered: "Of course, I won't let him know of your existence."

The second elder brother said apologetically, "I'm the one who troubled you. Others thought you were cold-blooded and ruthless, and he would do anything to get rid of everyone, and he wanted revenge on you." He knew that Yi Zhiyu had been missing for nearly a year, so At that time, he suspected that the fourth child did it, but fortunately, nothing happened to Yi San.

Yi Zhiyu smiled again, but this smile seemed too cold.

"I didn't misunderstand anything. It's normal for him to seek revenge from me. If you didn't withdraw voluntarily, I would have prepared, hehe, to kill you."

While talking and laughing, Yi Zhiyu suddenly said something like a knife, and Jing Zhaoqiu was shocked when he heard it. Does this seem to be a good talk? The other party will not pull out the knife and fight Yi Zhiyu in the next moment.Thinking of this, Jing Zhaoqiu moved a seat to the side, farther away from the second brother, and closer to the two children on the couch, just in case the other party changed his face.

Yi Zhiyu remained calm, that person's concentration was better than Yi Zhiyu's, he was not affected by Yi Zhiyu's words at all, and even smiled, agreeing with Yi Zhiyu's words, obviously Yi Zhiyu He didn't know how Yu behaved.

"I'm the least qualified person to compete for the Yi family. It doesn't matter whether you kill me or not. Of course, to be on the safe side, it's better to start. Only dead people can be foolproof." He didn't realize that the dead person in his mouth was referring to himself.

Regarding their own life and death issues, the two of them seemed to be chatting about today's weather, the clouds were calm and the wind was light.Jing Zhaoqiu was speechless when he heard that, and thought in his heart, he never thought that such a gentle and decent person would be as perverted as Yi Zhiyu.

But then again, what on earth did he do to drive this man into anonymity?Although he opened a teahouse in the capital, according to Jing Zhaoqiu's observation, the basic business is not handled by himself, and the customers who come and go don't even know that the owner of the teahouse is someone else, and it is always more conspicuous, but it is easy to be ignored. , the so-called great hidden in the city is nothing more than the case.That him, he probably didn't expect that this person would hide in the most prosperous city.

Speaking of which, Jing Zhaoqiu actually already had guesses in his heart, whether it was him they were talking about, or the second brother in front of him.However, this has nothing to do with him, Jing Zhaoqiu didn't mean to point it out, and let the two of them talk like a charade.

Jing Zhaoqiu and the others didn't stay in the teahouse for too long, one was that the prince needed to return to the palace, and the other was that Jiu Jiu was really sleepy.He is only about ten months old, and two-thirds of the twelve hours a day are spent sleeping.

After returning home, Jing Zhaoqiu couldn't hold back his curiosity and took the initiative to ask Yi Zhiyu.

Yi Zhiyu didn't hide anything: "It's what you think."

"How do I listen, there seems to be something hidden in it." He could tell that the fourth child always wanted to seek revenge from Yi Zhiyu, not because Yi Zhiyu got the whole Yi family, but this second brother.

"It's not a secret, he's just sick." He didn't have to doubt this, it was referring to Yi Laosi.

It's rare for Yi Zhiyu to utter such complaints. It can be seen that in his eyes, Yi's fourth brother is really sick, and there is no cure for this disease, otherwise the second brother would not hide from him and hide his name incognito.It can be seen that this man is not seriously ill.Zhiyu has no grievances about being blamed. As the saying goes, you can't overwhelm yourself with hatred. Since you have carried so much hatred, it doesn't matter if you have one more, not to mention that he didn't intend to let it go.

It's just that the second child voluntarily withdrew and asked him to hide it.Yi Zhiyu is not someone who will keep this promise. At critical times, if necessary, Yi Zhiyu will take advantage of this.

It's been a few days without incident and the sea is calm.In the early morning of this day, the Yi Mansion was suddenly stolen.

"Stolen? Where is it lost?" The old lady worshiped the Buddha every day, regardless of the big and small things at home.The real master of the house is Jing Zhaoqiu, so it is natural to report theft to Jing Zhaoqiu first.

"Yes, it's the house over there in Xiheyuan."

"Xiheyuan? Where is that?" Jing Zhaoqiu was not familiar with this name.The Yi family is so big, it is a bit difficult for him to be fully familiar with all the structures of the Yi family.Jing Zhaoqiu is not very clear about some remote places.

For example, this Xiheyuan.

The servant explained to Jing Zhaoqiu.

"Returning to Lord Hou, this Xihe Courtyard was originally the place where the aunts and young masters lived, and it is far away from the main courtyard." The servants compared the distance, and Jing Zhaoqiu estimated that it was one street away, "From Go in through the corner gate on the west, and you will find the West Harmony Courtyard, but no one lives there now."

"No one lives here... Are the furnishings in the house the same as before?"

"It's the same. The third master lived there before, but now there are only two or three cleaning servants left there."

Jing Zhaoqiu murmured in his heart, who would go there to steal things if they have nothing to do, Yi Zhiyu has been in charge of the house for many years, and there is nothing good in there.

"What's missing?"

The servant answered immediately, took out the list that had been sorted out and read it again.

"That's all."

"That's all?" Jing Zhaoqiu was surprised. In his opinion, the things the thief stole were very ordinary. The most valuable thing was a suet white jade inkstone, mostly small things. "Are there any valuable calligraphy and paintings?"

"This... probably never existed." The servant didn't understand calligraphy and painting, and really didn't know what was missing, "The little man went to investigate immediately."

Jing Zhaoqiu called him to stop.

"No hurry. Since the stolen things are not valuable, there is no need to worry. I have something to ask you." Jing Zhaoqiu suddenly stood up, walked in front of the servant, and lowered his voice. This action made the servant down a lot. Jump, as if plotting to do something bad.

"Tell me, did your third master also live in Xiheyuan?"

The servant nodded.Yes, that's right.

"Then... did he move those things away?" Jing Zhaoqiu asked a question that the servants didn't expect.

"Ah?" The servant was taken aback for a moment, but didn't understand at once.

"Ah what, just tell me if there is any."

The servant was stunned for a moment, and immediately came back to his senses, no matter what Jing Zhaoqiu asked him what he meant by this sentence, he quickly answered.

"I haven't moved, I haven't moved. The master's things are all in the Xihe courtyard intact, and only some personal items have been moved here." After Yi Zhiyu became the head of the family that day, he took office in a chic manner. As for the belongings of the Xihe courtyard , all untouched.The master didn't move, so other people naturally didn't dare to deal with it. They only went to clean it frequently, but the things were all arranged according to the original layout.

Jing Zhaoqiu rolled his eyes, feeling a little excited in his heart.He immediately ordered his subordinates to lead the way, and he went to Xihe courtyard to see what was missing.

In fact, the original intention of Jing Zhaoqiu's trip was just to see where Yi Zhiyu lived.
