C76 I like Him

"Very good. Thank you for your concern, young master." Yun Zhu only felt that the two tightly clenched hands hidden in her sleeves were covered in cold sweat.

Perhaps the old madam noticed that the atmosphere between them was not right, so she coughed and reminded her grandson not to bully others too much. The old woman was still here. She then turned to Yunshu and instructed, "Yes, go and see if the medicine is ready."

"Yes." Yunshu hurriedly left as if she had been granted amnesty.

After leaving the invisible pressurizing environment, her mind would immediately be able to think normally. With Jiang Xunyang's filial piety towards his father, there was no reason for him not to tell his father after knowing what she did last night. Instead, he brought the guard beside him and specially came in front of her to shake him.

So it was very likely that Jiang Xunyang did not know anything at all. That guard probably did not remember that he did not go to the Agarwood Restaurant to keep vigil last night. At most, he would wonder why he woke up in the fake mountain.

From the looks of it, she was still safe for the time being, but tonight's plan could only be temporarily canceled. She was not sure if Jiang Xunyang would do anything.

The little servant in charge of frying medicine was called Xishan, a clever person. He was smiling to everyone, one elder sister on the left, one elder sister on the right, and one elder sister on the right. When he talked to people, he would make them laugh heartily. He could even get familiar with this newcomer, Yunshu. He realized that Yunshu had just walked into the kitchen. "Aiyo, Sis Xin, why are you here today?"

"What's wrong? You don't want to see me?" Yunshu smiled. "Is Madam's medicine ready?"

" How is that possible? I can't wait to see Sis Xin Xin. It has already begun frying for the last time."

"So you don't want to see Sis Ruyi? Be careful, I'll tell her later." Yunshu was joking with him.

The child cooperatively shrunk his neck. "So terrifying, but this move has long been useless to me." As he spoke, he made a face at Yunshu and turned to look at the medicine.

The scene of the two joking around was seen by the master and servant standing outside the door. Jiang Xunyang expressionlessly stepped into the kitchen. "Is the old madam's medicine not ready yet?"

Xishan immediately restrained his joking expression. "It will be soon."

"Yes, you can directly bring it to Jingan Hall in a while. Alright, come with me. I have something to ask you. "

Yunshu nodded in response and turned to the youth beside her. "Xishan, then I'll leave the old madam's medicine to you. If the old madam or Sis Ruyi asks, just tell them that the Young Master has something to discuss with me. I'll return as soon as possible."

"Got it."

Jiang Xunyang, who was the first to walk out of the kitchen, did not forget to be careful even before she left with him. His feelings were rather complicated, but he did not say anything.

Yunshu walked side by side with the guard she knocked out last night and followed Jiang Xunyang into the Shi'an Courtyard where he lived. Finally, Jiang Xunyang pushed open the study door and walked in.

After sitting down on the Grand Preceptor's chair, his gaze landed on Yun Zhu. The corners of his mouth curled into a scheming smile. "Why did Miss Yin appear in the inner court so late last night?"

"You saw wrongly, right?" She didn't know if Jiang Xunyang had seen the scene of her knocking that guard unconscious, and she couldn't help but feel somewhat guilty.

"Are you questioning this young master? Aren't you afraid that I will chase you out of the residence?"

Yunshu originally wanted to say things like "what can't be doubted," but when she heard the latter part, she forcefully swallowed those words that were about to rush out. She immediately revealed a smile that she thought was enough to please, "No, this servant is only stating the facts."

"But the truth is that you clearly appeared in the inner court late at night." Jiang Xunyang pointed out this point without any mercy, seemingly wanting to bite down on this point and not let go.

Yunshu immediately felt a little headache. She sighed earnestly and earnestly. "Doesn't Young Master usually like to flow through those elegant places? This servant believes that Young Master might have been played by Immortal Fox Lord last night."

Seeing that she was still unwilling to admit it without changing her expression, Jiang Xunyang sneered, "Nonsense. This young master has never believed in the saying of ghosts, and has never seen it with his own eyes."

Yunshu hurriedly said, "Young Master, whether you believe it or not is one thing, but whether or not it is another. Even the sages of the past have never denied the existence of strange forces and gods, right? What if Young Master is really targeted by Immortal Fox Lord... This servant feels that the most important thing now is to find a powerful Daoist to exorcise the evil for Young Master. "

When Jiang Xunyang heard these words, he sneered, "I'm afraid that what should be driven away is not evil but Miss Yin, right? If Miss Yin still does not confess what you hid in the fake mountain in the inner courtyard late at night for, then this young master can only invite you out of the residence." Jiang Xunyang had discovered earlier that she seemed to be unwilling to leave the Prime Minister Estate, so he continued to use these words to threaten her.

As expected, the woman opposite immediately revealed a troubled expression. "Alright, I went to the inner court last night, but I just wanted to see this big brother guard." As she spoke, she pointed at the guard standing beside Jiang Xunyang.

Since she was only asking what she was hiding in the fake mountain, then she probably did not see the scene of her knocking out the guard. She guessed that Jiang Xunyang would at most see her coming out of the fake mountain. With a foundation in his heart, his courage was no longer that weak.

The guard's elder brother had a look of shock. He raised his hand and pointed at himself in disbelief. Yunshu nodded without hesitation.

Jiang Xunyang was also somewhat shocked, but he quickly restrained his emotions. He suppressed the inexplicable anger in his chest and continued to ask, "What do you want to see him for?"

"What else can there be?" Yunshu deliberately showed that kind of shy and bashful manner of a little girl. She puffed her cheeks slightly, as if she was somewhat embarrassed to mention this matter to others. "Of course I like him. I like him."

"You like him?!?!" Jiang Xunyang immediately stood up from the armchair. A moment later, he felt that he was a little too agitated. He sat down again. "You know his name, and where he lives. Do you have a wife or a daughter? So you like him?"

Yunshu lowered her head and did not reply. The older brother of the guards who had been chosen was still in a state of shock, but for some reason, his face was a little red.

Seeing that she did not speak, Jiang Xunyang turned his head to look at the guard beside him in a stifled manner. He said again, "He's just a piece of trash with simple limbs and a simple head and a shabby face. You can take a fancy to him too? Should I praise Miss Yin for being straightforward, or should I say that you're blind? "

The guard finally recovered from his shock and defended himself." Young Master, actually, this little one isn't that ugly, right? Quite a few girls that grew up with this little one all say that this little one won't marry. "

Jiang Xunyang turned his head and glared at the guard. "Shut up! Did this young master allow you to speak?"

After scolding this blind guard, he got up and walked in front of Yunshu. He stretched out his hand to pinch her chin and forced her to look up at him. "Listen, you're interested in these kinds of crooked melons and jujubes that flirt everywhere?"

Yunshu noticed that the other party's eyes were full of ridicule towards her, so she shrugged nonchalantly. "Actually, the big brother of the guard really isn't at the level of the crooked melon and cracked dates that Young Master mentioned. Young Master, you must speak with a conscience."

Jiang Xunyang sneered and said, "Belief? You're the first person to think that this Young Master has a conscience. Miss Yin is indeed very naive."

"Tell me in detail what you did in the fake mountain. If you don't want to confess, I don't mind throwing you all into the dungeon as a pair of desperate lovebirds."

It's over. This time, we played it big. Jiang Xunyang gave her the feeling that he was willful and lawless. Perhaps he would really throw her into the underground prison and wait for death. She was not afraid of death. In any case, she was already someone who had died once. However, when she thought about how she would implicate this innocent older brother guard and Yang Siyuan, who was still locked up in Xiao Heng's dungeon, to die with her, her conscience felt a little bad. Especially Yang Siyuan. After all, he had fallen into that kind of situation because he wanted to save her. Even if she had to die, she would at least save him before he died.

The guard's elder brother had a troubled expression. Yunshu could tell at a glance that he probably did not remember the matter of being knocked unconscious last night. Thus, she immediately made up a bunch of nonsense in her heart. Then, she took off the purse on her waist and said, "Last night, this servant originally wanted to block him on the road that the big brother of the guards had to pass through every night. At the same time, I also wanted to give this handsewn purse to him." Actually, she bought it on the way back to Ino with Xiao Heng and even bought ten of the same type of strange things. Back then, when she saw the cat fur embroidered on it, it was lifelike and cute. That was why he couldn't help but buy so many of them.

"But I was afraid that others would see this servant appear in the inner court late at night. Thus, this servant could only hide in the fake mountain. But after entering, she unknowingly fell asleep and only when she woke up did she realize that she missed the time. This servant thought of waking up early to serve the old madam and hurriedly went back."

Jiang Xunyang stared at her doubtfully. "But Kong Shengda clearly came out of that fake mountain after that. How are the two of you going to explain this point?"

Thinking about it, Kong Shengda should be the name of this big brother of the guards that she dragged into the matter for no reason.

Yunshu made a very regretful expression. "Is that so? If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have rushed back to rest last night. If I had paid attention to the inside of the fake mountain... I wouldn't have been unable to send this bag out. However, the fake mountain was quite dark then. "

Jiang Xunyang turned his gaze to Kong Shengda again. Kong Shengda echoed Yunshu's words." The fake mountain was indeed quite dark. When I woke up, I bumped into it a few times. "

"Then why are you in the fake mountain?"

"This... I can't remember." Kong Shengda frowned.

Seeing that they are starting to get entangled with this crucial question, Yunshu says faintly, "Young master, it can't really be Immortal Fox Lord right?"

She pretended to be serious and deliberately used a low and deep tone to achieve the ideal effect on Jiang Xunyang. His expression became extremely ugly, "Don't speak nonsense, how could there be such a thing?"

"But this servant heard that the Prime Minister is only because His Majesty the Emperor believed the so-called prophecy on a heavenly stone, that's why..." Yun Zhu revealed a somewhat fearful expression at the right time, "Could it be that this matter is also Immortal Fox Lord..."

"Go down, don't talk too much. It's rare for this young master to investigate what happened last night. You are also not allowed to look for Kong Shengda."

"Why?" Although she didn't mind not looking for Kong Shengda at all, wouldn't she lose a shield when she went to the Agarwood Restaurant to do shady business in the future? Moreover, she had only made this shield, so it would be a waste if she didn't use it.

She had already thought about it. If someone asked her what she was doing in the Agarwood Restaurant in the future, she could totally say that she was squatting in front of Kong Shengda.
