At this end, after the old housekeeper Chen Bo sent Wu Chengli away, he also returned to the castle.

At this moment, in the huge castle, only Ye Zhen was sitting quietly on the sofa, and the other staff members didn't know where they went.

Seeing the old housekeeper come back, Ye Zhen smiled and motioned him to sit opposite: "Can we talk?"

Uncle Chen bowed slightly and looked at her peacefully: "What do you want to talk to me about?"

"Let's just talk about this garden." Ye Zhen's posture was also very relaxed.

"Okay, miss." Uncle Chen sat across from her, and looked extraordinarily energetic after sweeping away his old age.

Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows in surprise: "You call me Miss? If I remember correctly, from what Mr. Wu said earlier, there seems to be a lady in this garden."

Uncle Chen also smiled, and said calmly: "That's just a counterfeit who has taken over the magpie's nest, you don't have to worry about it."

"Oh?" Ye Zhen said noncommittally, picked up the tea in front of her, bowed her head and took a breath.

Uncle Chen pushed the fruit dessert on the side in front of her: "I can tell you everything Miss wants to know. This silent garden..."

The old man raised his head, and after slowly sweeping his eyes across the entire courtyard, he slowly told the story behind the silent garden:
The silent garden is actually a beautiful and luxurious garden built by the previous head of the Liu family with all the financial resources of the Liu family and after twenty years.

At first, it was really just an ordinary garden, at most it occupied a larger area and was more magnificent.

However, no one expected that before the death of the previous head of the Liu family, he found a method from nowhere to refine the entire silent garden into a place similar to a small secret realm.

It was also from that time that the fate of those who worked in the silent garden was connected with the entire garden, and they could no longer take a step out of the silent garden.

Later, the silent garden gradually became extremely mysterious in the eyes of the world: some people said that it symbolized wealth and status, while others said that it contained the law of immortality...

All in all, under the false rumors, the name of the silent garden is getting more and more pretentious, and more and more people are thinking about it.

After listening to Ye Zhen, she pondered for a moment before asking the old housekeeper: "As far as I know, the previous head of the Liu family has been dead for more than thirty years, right?"

"Then after she passed away, who is the owner of the silent garden?" After a pause, Ye Zhen seemed to think of something, and added: "I mean, before me, who did the silent garden obey? ?”

The old butler shook his head and said, "No one. Miss, you are the second owner of the silent garden."

Ye Zhen was a little surprised by this answer.

She thought for a while and asked: "Then, who is the person who has been hiding behind the silent garden all these years? Who is the Wu family listening to?"

Hearing this, the old housekeeper looked at her with some relief, and some kind of hope that Ye Zhen couldn't describe, or was it crazy?

If ordinary people read it, their hairs would stand on end and they would feel creepy.

But Ye Zhen won't.

She just looked at the old man calmly.

After a while, Uncle Chen lowered his eyes to hide the emotion in his eyes, and said calmly: "Miss, as I said, I will tell you everything you want to know."

"This matter still has to start from the silent garden."

"Before the old Patriarch left, he used a special method to refine this silent garden, and left a message. From now on, among the descendants of the Liu family, whoever can activate the special blood power of the Liu family like her will be the descendant of the silent garden." The one-term master can get everything she left behind in the silent garden..."

Ye Zhen's heart skipped a beat when she heard this.

Just as she thought before, the blood of the Liu family is really special.

It seems that those people plotted against her not because of the Ye family, but because of the Liu family.

It's just a little strange, according to the direction of the matter, she should be the one who activated the power of the Liu family's special blood, but Ye Zhen didn't notice the abnormality.

This is very strange.

Ye Zhen looked at the old housekeeper calmly, motioning him to continue.

The old butler couldn't see anything on Ye Zhen's face, so he continued: "Back then, since the old Patriarch passed away, the Liu family has deteriorated day by day, and soon disappeared from the circle of top wealthy families..."

"In order to reorganize the Liu family and restore the former glory, everyone in the Liu family wanted to become the master of the silent garden, but after more than ten years, no one succeeded in accepting the master. Until Miss Xinlan, a branch of the Liu family who married to Yancheng, Pregnant..."

When the old housekeeper said this, he paused, and looked up at Ye Zhen.

Ye Zhen was also looking at him quietly, with calm eyes and a slight smile on her face, even her sitting posture was still very leisurely, as if she was listening to someone else's story.

The old housekeeper sighed inwardly, this child is really kind, he deserves to be the heir chosen by the old Patriarch.

"When Ms. Xinlan was pregnant, she accompanied the master's family to the silent garden once, and that time, the silent garden's restrictions suddenly responded."

"Of course, very few people know about this matter. After all, it is related to the secret of our silent garden..."

"But there is no airtight wall in this world. After all, someone is still eyeing Miss Xinlan's stomach..."

"Miss Xinlan was not originally a direct descendant of the Liu family, and she knew very little about it, plus she..."

The old housekeeper frowned slightly, as if he didn't know how to describe her biological mother tactfully in front of Ye Zhen.

But Ye Zhen said indifferently: "Selfish and stupid?"

The old housekeeper acquiesced to this statement, skipped this point, and continued: "At the beginning, we never thought that Miss Xinlan would choose to give up on you because of..."

To be honest, being as stupid as Liu Xinlan is indeed rare.

The old housekeeper continued: "By the time our people heard the news and rushed to Yancheng, you had already been sent to the orphanage...

Ye Tianlang's reputation is too great, because of the shocking hexagram at that time, there were many people who paid attention to him at that time, not only people from our Taoist sect, but also people from the higher authorities..."

"At that time, the situation of our Liu family was really not good. Therefore, some of us old people who are still in the silent garden have always thought that maybe it would be better for you to stay in the orphanage."

"I think you should understand." The old housekeeper looked up at Ye Zhen, with some expectations in his eyes.

Ye Zhen nodded, expressing her understanding: "That's true. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, everyone is jealous of each other, but no one dares to do anything to the orphanage in the open."

As a result, although life in the orphanage was a bit sad, it was generally safe and sound.

However, is this really the whole truth about how she was plotted against in her mother's womb?But Ye Zhen always felt that something was missing.

Ye Zhen lowered her head and took another sip of tea before asking the old housekeeper, "Do you know any news about Liu Xinlan?"

Then she found that the old butler looked at her with some inexplicable old comfort.

Ye Zhen: "..."

The old butler continued: "After you were sent to the Sirius Orphanage, in order to confuse the public, we released the news that it was actually someone else who alarmed the ban on the silent garden."

Speaking of this, the old man smiled: "You should be able to imagine that over the years, there are actually quite a few Liu family members who want to try their luck in the silent garden. Among them, the pregnant woman who is pregnant with Liujia is not only your mother..."

Ye Zhen nodded to express her understanding.The Liu family is a big family no matter what, and there must be a lot of people.

It is said that money touches people's hearts.

Not to mention the secrets of the silent garden and the significance it represents, such a large garden alone is worth a lot of money.

It's normal for someone to worry about it.

The old housekeeper smiled gratifiedly again: "But I never thought that he would be so courageous..."

So which one fell into the pit?As soon as Ye Zhen heard him mentioning this, she became energetic, and her eyes lit up a lot.

Uncle Chen smiled, and continued: "Later, a certain elder of the Liu family, together with members of the Wu family, sent a baby girl..."

"If it's fake, it's fake. It's a bit of a show. We took a relic left by the old master, and in front of that clan elder, when the baby girl entered the silent garden, we activated the most superficial restriction... ..."

"In this way, that baby girl will become the young lady of our silent garden...the next Patriarch of the Liu family by default."

"But what they don't know is that long after you went to the orphanage, miss, we secretly changed the information of the silent garden, and then secretly sent someone to the official..."

"The old master once said before his deathbed that the aristocratic family's set has long been outdated. If you want to be justified, you must update the official information..."

Ye Zhen was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the ancestor of the Liu family was a rare and intelligent person.

And the legal awareness is also super strong-now when looking at real estate, who cares about the blood relationship? The only official certification is the house book!
Ye Zhen thought for a while, and then asked him: "Then, all these years, has no one thought to check the real estate book of Moyuan?" It always feels a little weird.

The old butler said: "Because the baby girl activated the restriction of the silent garden, she has been regarded as the master of the silent garden all these years..."

"Since everyone in this circle knows that the silent garden has an owner, why would they think of checking those useless documents?"

Ye Zhen was shocked, can it still be like this?

But when you think about it carefully, it seems reasonable—after all, in the eyes of those Taoists who think highly of themselves and have always looked down on ordinary people, what is the use of a piece of paper?
"Then, has no one suspected it all these years?" Ye Zhen asked, after all, the Ye family lost a child back then, and there was quite a commotion.

"No." The old housekeeper nodded slightly, then raised his head and said, "Because all these years, we old fellows have really treated that counterfeit as the little master of the silent garden..."

As long as the other party tells you, you will do it with your heart.

All the permissions that can be opened for her are open.

She even took out all the cultivation resources that the Liu family could provide for her to practice...
"However, she probably knows that she is just a fake." The old butler said here, and sneered: "Over the years, she has been secretly contacting your mother behind our backs..."

"Including the last time, your mother was able to escape unscathed after an accident in the Ye family, which was actually the result of her meddling behind the scenes. Even, as far as we know, now your mother—Miss Xinlan, has fallen into her hands inside."

Now, it's up to you to do it.The old housekeeper looked at Ye Zhen with that forbearance and crazy expectation in his eyes.

Ye Zhen thought: "So, she has actually taken over all the connections and resources of the Liu family?"

"That's right." The old housekeeper nodded, and his eyes became a little blurry for a moment: "Before the old master refined the silent garden, he actually had a faint feeling that there might be something wrong with the person our Liu family has always enshrined... ..."

"It is precisely because the old Patriarch didn't want to make wedding clothes for others for nothing, and she didn't want to be a puppet who is neither human nor ghost, so she chose to refine the entire silent garden in such a tragic way..."

"It's inevitable that the future successor of the silent garden will end up in the same fate as her. The old Patriarch told me before she died that she left a secret in the silent garden."

"Only the true master of the silent garden can crack that secret, get what she left behind, and win a chance for the descendants of my Liu family."

After finishing speaking, the old butler raised his eyes and looked at Ye Zhen firmly.

But Ye Zhen asked: "The Liu family is a servant of God? No wonder..."

The old butler was stunned for a moment. He originally thought that Ye Zhen would ask the old master what the secret was in the silent garden, but unexpectedly, Ye Zhen asked a seemingly irrelevant question.

He nodded and said: "That's right, not only our Liu family, but in the entire Kyushu continent, there are actually nine great servant families, the Qin family, the Xiao family, the Xu family..."

"Wait." Ye Zhen interrupted him suddenly, and asked, "Uncle Chen, are you sure that the lady you have been serving all these years is still the baby girl back then!"

Hearing this, the old butler didn't know what to think of, and his face suddenly became serious.

"Miss, do you suspect...?"

Ye Zhen suddenly made a silent motion at him.

After a pause, Ye Zhen rested her chin on one hand and said, "There is something I need your help to verify..."
