Unscrupulous Concubine Evil Lord

Chapter 265 Who Is the Most Suspected

"Xia...chu...first..."

The three big characters, with the murmur in the mouth, are written with a swipe of the pen, chic and elegant, majestic and majestic.

The hand holding the pen paused for a moment, put away the pen, and threw it by the table.

In front of the desk, a man in black knelt on the ground, not daring to move, his eyes lowered like a dead person.

A pair of black brocade shoes came in front of him, and he spoke in a condescending voice: "Where's the thing?"

"Reporting to the Patriarch, Fei Wu said that she hasn't found it yet, please let the Patriarch give her some more time."

"I didn't find it..." The clear voice dragged on, and it sounded like an invisible murderous intent.

After a while, the cyan brocade sleeve flicked, and a sentence was thrown lightly: "Go and solve the person, don't let people find out anything."

"Yes."

The kneeling man in black left in a hurry. Beside the desk, a bony hand stretched out from the brocade sleeve, and picked up the rice paper that had just been written on the desk.

"Xia, Chu, Yi."

……

"Master Yushi, the fan you want is the biggest one you can find in the mansion."

The butler took the cattail leaf fan that the boy found and handed it to Xia Chuyi.

Xia Chuyi looked at those eyes secretly looking at her, and calmly pulled out a large sheet of white paper, and then took out some bottles and cans from his arms.

As soon as Feng Luo saw her little porcelain vase, she knew she was going to do something bad, so she quickly tugged on Chang Huan's sleeve, pulling her away.

Looking at his actions, Xia Chuyi shook his head and sighed inwardly, Feng Luo also knew her!

Those prospective wives were probably wondering what she was going to do, but after thinking about it, this is the City Lord's Mansion, what can she do?Suddenly, he began to feel confident again.

Xia Chuyi poured a lot of medicinal powders on the white paper, red, white, green, all kinds of colors, it looks like powder for women's makeup.

She asked people to place the white paper not far in front of the prospective wives, while holding a big palm leaf fan, she walked slowly in front of them.

The corners of her mouth turned up, and she smiled at the young wives-to-be with a non-smiling smile. She said: "It's the first time we meet, I have nothing to give you, just give you some beauty powder."

When everyone heard the words, they all focused their eyes on her, as if to see what the hell she was going to do.

Xia Chuyi is also a man of action, he does what he says, he moves his hands up and down, and swings the big cattail fan in an arc with his arms, and slaps vigorously towards the medicine powder.

All of a sudden, a gust of strong wind mixed with spiritual power blew, and the medicinal powder on the white paper suddenly floated up one after another, rushing towards the prospective young ladies like sand and dust.

The whole yard was in chaos. The young ladies-to-be felt a coldness on their faces and hands, and they stretched out their hands to wipe the medicine powder of various colors, and suddenly screamed louder than screams.

Seeing Xia Chuyi's actions, the servants of the City Lord's Mansion were stunned for a moment, not knowing what to do.

These prospective young wives may be the young wives of Jincheng in the future, and they may even be the wives of the city lord in the future. This censor actually treats them like that!

However, this was not over yet. After the first wave of screaming was over, the young wives who had their faces covered in powdered medicine started the second wave of screaming.

Not only that, those young wives-to-be who love their looks and face very much on weekdays have all turned into crazy women one by one, starting to scratch their ears and cheeks, jumping up and down, and even lying on the ground and rolling around!

The butler couldn't stand it any longer, walked in front of Xia Chuyi, and said with some anxiety, "Master Yushi, they are the future young wives of the young master..."

"They?" Xia Chuyi squinted at the chaotic situation, and smiled coldly, "Are they worthy?"

The housekeeper wanted to decide whether you deserve it or not, and was thinking about how to persuade him, when Xia Chuyi said again: "These people won't be here in two days, so I won't let my family Yuan Bao married these women. And it’s just itching powder, rotten flour, bloodworm powder, nothing serious, just take the antidote for a while and you’ll be fine.”

The butler listened to the names of those medicine powders, and then looked at the crowd rolling together, with cold sweat on his forehead—is this nothing serious?

And this Master Yushi called "My Yuanbao" so casually, could it be true that, as the rumors say, the person their young master likes is her?

Isn't this the future prospective young lady?

Thinking of this, the butler couldn't help sighing—what kind of thing is this!

Xia Chuyi first asked people to distribute the antidote to the servant girls, and then separated the 58 prospective young wives individually and brought them to the small living room in Baihua Garden.

Hundred Gardens is the general name for these dozens of buildings and small pavilions. I heard that if Jin Yuanbao hadn't moved out, Mr. Jin really wanted to turn this Hundred Gardens into a veritable Hundred Gardens and raise a hundred young wives for him.

It's a pity that this idea finally stopped at 58, and Yuan Bao sternly said that if he interfered in his marriage again, he would never set foot in the City Lord's Mansion again.

Mr. Jin knew his son's temper, and it was the principles of life he had instilled in him since he was a child, so he had no choice but to give up.

At this moment, those young wives-to-be have been fed the antidote by the maids, but their temples are crooked, their gorgeous clothes are all covered with dust and crumpled, and they look in a mess.

They were sitting on chairs drinking shock tea, and some of them were injured by their necks being scratched too hard just now, looking at Xia Chuyi's eyes now, how angry, how angry, how depressed they were .

One of them was more irritable, and finally couldn't help but speak first: "Xia Yushi, right? Dare to ask us weak girls what felony they committed, and you want to treat us like that?"

All eyes were on Xia Chuyi, as if they were waiting for her to give them an explanation.

Especially after seeing Feng Luo and Chang Huan standing beside Xia Chuyi, many people's eyes were tinged with envy and jealousy, and their expressions became more and more unkind.

They were brought up here and had no worries about food and clothing. Although they were the prospective young wives of the young master of Jincheng in name, they couldn't even see their future husbands face to face all year round.

They are in their prime right now, and they still have time to wait, but what about in two years?

What I can't get but what others can get easily, this kind of gap immediately makes people feel unbalanced.

However, Feng Luo had a supercilious and cold face, Chang Huan had an ignorant look, and Xia Chu was so thick-skinned that she couldn't even describe it herself, and immediately blocked all kinds of meaningful eyes.

Xia Chuyi stretched out his hand to pick up the teacup, blew the hot tea slowly, and said lightly: "Do you know that when my lord arrives in Jincheng, the city lord has to kneel at the gate of the city to meet him. Do you see my lord?" Kneeling is fine, and you still ignore it? Do you know what punishment will be given for the following crimes according to the Xuanyuan Dynasty's decree?"

To be honest, Xia Chuyi himself didn't know what sentence he was sentenced to.But to be honest, if she doesn't know, then she's just talking nonsense. Anyway, you don't need to write a draft to brag.

In short, when dealing with this group of pampered young wives-to-be, you just have to raise your posture higher than them.

But just as she finished speaking, she heard a gentle and quiet voice from a corner: "According to the Xuanyuan Dynasty's decree, those who commit the above crimes shall be sentenced to 15 years in prison."

15 years!

Well, not to mention the pale faces of those prospective wives, even Xia Chuyi hastily coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment.

She really didn't know that the laws of the Xuanyuan Dynasty were so strict.

But after the embarrassment, she raised her head and looked at the woman who just answered.

A spring green dress wrapped her exquisite figure, which looked a little thin, but it looked like a slim lotus supported by a thin stem, which looked extremely elegant.

She was not that embarrassed, but she could see a few scratches on her body, and there was a faint smile on her delicate face. When Xia Chu saw her, she did not forget to give her a blessing.

Xia Chuyi immediately regretted it, and said in his heart that he shouldn't have been so reckless just now. Although some people deserved what they did, they must have hurt many innocent people.

She looked up at the butler, and asked in a low voice, "What's her name?"

"My lord, this is Miss Lin Yueya, who was picked up by the master three years ago in the random graveyard." The head housekeeper immediately told Xia Chuyi about everything in detail.

Xia Chuyi took a careful look at Lin Yueya, seeing that she had been looking at him with anticipation in her eyes, and her heart moved slightly.

"How is her relationship with your young master?"

If the chief steward felt that the censor in front of him was a bit unrealistic before, but now he really admires him from the bottom of his heart.

He cupped his hands at her and said in a low voice: "Miss Yueya used to be a lady of a rich family, so she knew everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Before the young master left home, he often came to play chess with her. She will become the young mistress."

Xia Chuyi let out an "oh" and didn't say much.

No wonder this woman looked pretty good, but was squeezed into a corner by a group of people.It turns out that the phoenix is ​​not as good as the chicken, and the tiger is bullied by dogs in Pingyang.

Then she just spoke, didn't she just deliberately attract her attention?

Xia Chuyi asked the housekeeper again: "Did your young master come back this time to see Miss Yueya?"

The butler shook his head: "The young lord only talked to the city lord for a while after he came back, but he left before finishing lunch. How can there be a chance to see Miss Yueya?"

Xia Chu nodded, and didn't ask any more questions.

Everyone present looked at the big butler and the seemingly innocuous but in fact a little devil Yushi lord and muttered for a long time, curious in their hearts, but they didn't dare to ask anything.

They now know that if they offend the person in front of them, their fate will definitely not be much better.

Obviously, he just wanted to show her off, but now it's good to get them all in, and I don't know if it will disfigure her.

Xia Chuyi couldn't help laughing coldly when she saw the look of everyone daring to be angry but didn't dare to speak up, and said it to everyone according to what she said before.

"I lost something, what did I lose?"

"Could it be the official seal of the city lord's mansion, or would the censor be alerted to investigate?"

"Don't worry about what you lost. If we can't find it, we will all be implicated. Isn't that a panic?"

"No matter what we throw away, how do we know who's going to steal it?"

……

Everyone was discussing in a low voice, and occasionally a dispute would break out, and then the voice dropped down.

Xia Chuyi asked someone to hand them a pen and paper, and quickly collected all the notes.

She waved at everyone, and said in a flat tone: "Go back, everyone will be notified if someone is caught."

Although everyone couldn't figure out what was going on, they knew what was going on in their hearts when they thought that Lord Yushi had made the whole city lord's mansion panic.

The young wives-to-be immediately retreated without making a sound, and the butler couldn't help shaking his head and sighing softly: "Even the city lord can't stand them appearing together, Mr. Yushi is really a good trick."

Xia Chuyi smiled helplessly.

Let her be a bad person every time. If you don't show her power, can these aunts be obedient?

Just as she was about to get up and leave, the green shadow walking at the end paused for a moment, turned her head to look at her, and then continued to walk out.

Xia Chu paused for a moment, turned around to look at Feng Luo and Chang Huan, and said with a smile, "Let's go back."

Saying that, he greeted a large group of people and rushed back to the yard specially arranged for her.

She had to hurry up and ask someone to count all those notes.

Exotic flowers and plants, secluded bamboo trails.

The Hundred Gardens during the day were many times more beautiful than what she saw last night.

Not long after she walked, she saw a swaying blue color in the bamboo forest, she stopped and winked at Feng Luo.

Feng Luo nodded, and took Chang Huan to go first.

Seeing that Xia Chuyi had stopped, the big housekeeper didn't dare to ask anything, as long as he didn't order him, he still led his people and walked out behind Feng Luo and the others.

Xia Chu moved his ears to make sure that there was no one around, so he walked into the bamboo forest and walked up to the woman in the spring green dress.

Seeing Xia Chuyi, Lin Yueya was full of happiness again: "The daughter of the people, Lin Yueya, sees Mr. Yushi."

Xia Chuyi didn't reach out to help her. He leaned against the bamboo, folded his arms, and looked at her straightly: "Level [-] spiritual master, very good cultivation."

Lin Yueya's eyes flickered for a moment, and then she smiled and said, "Your Majesty Yushi is very capable, and you can tell it at a glance. Yueya practiced spiritually with her father before, so it can be regarded as a small achievement."

"It's good to have achievements, why use silver needles to suppress your cultivation?"

Since Xia Chuyi reached the level of Lingjun, many chaos have nowhere to hide before her eyes.

She stretched out her hand without hesitation, and pressed on Lin Yueya's head, and she frowned in pain, and then took a step back.

Lin Yueya really didn't expect that the censor was so powerful, and she couldn't tell why just by looking at her cultivation base.

She also thought that in today's world, there are only a few women who can cultivate to the level of spiritual masters at this age, and she must have the courage to try again.

Unexpectedly, this time, he kicked on a rock.

She didn't panic, she smiled and said: "I am the daughter of a criminal minister, and sometimes I live longer by hiding my light than showing my sharpness. Is it not strange that I do this?"

Xia Chuyi also smiled, shook his head and said, "It's not really strange. I don't care what you say, just tell me what's going on. I don't like people who beat around the bush very much."

"Happy," Lin Yueya immediately put away the smile just now, and said to Xia Chu with a serious expression, "I want to see the young master, I must see him right away!"

"What's the reason?" Xia Chu folded his arms.

Lin Yueya paused, then lowered her head: "I...I miss him..."

"Then think about it."

Xia Chuyi waved at her, turned around and left.

As a result, she had just taken half a step when she felt a gust of wind blowing by, rushing towards her in an all-round way.

Without looking back, she reached out and picked up a falling bamboo leaf, and threw it behind her.

He didn't use too much force, but heard a muffled groan behind him.As soon as Xia Chu turned her head, she saw Lin Yueya covering her chest with her hands, the blood there had already dyed that elegant green dress into a dazzling red.

How powerful is a bamboo leaf?

To ordinary people, it is as light as a feather, but to some, it is a sharper weapon than a sword.

Lin Yueya stared at Xia Chuyi incredulously with her eyes wide open. It was really hard to imagine, what kind of strength must it be to be able to do this?

Xia Chuyi walked in front of her without hurrying, but she was so dazed, letting the powerful coercion cover her completely.

"Did you steal it?"

Lin Yueya's eyes turned cold: "I don't know what you are talking about."

Xia Chuyi shrugged with a smile: "Since you don't know, then just pretend I didn't say anything. But Yuan Bao is not in the City Lord's Mansion, and I can't help you if you want to see him."

"Yuanbao... who are you, young master?" Lin Yueya suddenly stood up and asked a little excitedly.

Looking at the open wound on her chest, Xia Chuyi couldn't help but frowned slightly: "You care so much about my relationship with him?"

Lin Yueya shut her mouth suddenly, bit her lower lip tightly and refused to say anything more.

Seeing this, Xia Chu frowned even deeper. He just looked at her for a while, and finally reached out and threw her a small bottle: "You can use the best golden sore medicine."

"The young master..." Lin Yueya finished the bottle, and finally opened her mouth after a long time.

Xia Chu said without looking back: "I told you, he's not in the City Lord's Mansion. I'm sorry, but I can't help you."

When they returned to the yard, the chief steward had already organized people to sort out the votes one by one, and registered all the possibilities.

Seeing her come back, he hurriedly took the list to show her: "Sir, these are the ones with higher votes, but the old slave thinks that there are more personal grievances, because these are the stricter managers in daily life, which attract people's envy. It's not a strange thing either. But you can't think that they are the murderers."

Xia Chuyi played with his hair with one hand, nodded and said, "This vote is just a reference. There must be some people who seek personal revenge and are suspicious, but there is no lack of useful information. At least narrow the scope for us, right?" ?”

"Is this all right?" The head housekeeper was a little nervous.

Xia Chuyi hooked his lips and smiled lightly: "You have to believe that the eyes of the masses are discerning. They get along day and night and accompany each other day and night. If there is anything wrong, it must be discovered by the people closest to each other. Although there are many chances in this method, the possibility is quite big."

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and opened a list that had just been counted, which was the votes of the dozens of prospective young ladies in the Hundred Gardens.

Unsurprisingly, the one with the highest votes was Lin Yueya.

Seeing this name, the big housekeeper couldn't help but snorted softly and said, "This must be revenge. Miss Yueya is such a good person, but they all gang up to bully her. This old servant can't stand it anymore... "

Xia Chu raised his eyes and glanced at the big housekeeper with a half-smile: "Then what if it's her?"

Xia Chuyi's gaze on the butler was just like the rare time when his young master was angry, which made people shiver all over.

However, when he looked carefully, he couldn't see any other meanings, which really made him a little overwhelmed.

"The censor means..."

"Send someone to ask the other wives-to-be, and ask them if they can tell if Lin Yueya has acted abnormally. Call a few more shadows, and go and see her yourself, and don't let her run away!"

The butler was suddenly surprised: "Is it really Miss Yueya?"

"Whether it is or not, her suspicion is the biggest." Xia Chuyi waved his hand and asked the butler to go out.

She walked into the house and saw Feng Luo feeding Chang Huan.

"Eating too much sweet is bad for your teeth." She reached out and snatched the plate from Feng Luo's hand, and took the plate of pickled sweet plums into her own hand.

These people have figured out the rules for Chang Huan, and directly use whatever they eat to lure him.What if such a handsome person becomes a big fat man?

She still thought in her heart that if no one would marry her, she would let Chang Huan marry her, and she didn't want to be ugly.

As she spoke, she reached out and took a plum and stuffed it into her mouth. Looking at Chang Huan's smoky gray eyes staring at her eagerly, she reached out and touched his head and said, "Chang Huan, good boy, this thing is poisonous, you can't eat it." Eat. Just watch me eat."

Feng Luo next to him was speechless after seeing it, and couldn't help but whispered: "Obviously you want to eat."

The expression on Xia Chuyi's face froze, and he gave Feng Luo a reproachful look: "It's enough to know, why are you still talking about it?"

Feng Luo suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.

"Okay, let's get down to business, Feng Luo, you have to run for me." Xia Chuyi held the plate of plums to his chest, and said while eating without giving Chang Huan the slightest chance.

Feng Luo couldn't see that she was serious about it at all, but she still nodded: "Say it."

"Grandpa Jin doesn't want Yuan Bao to know about the account book being stolen, but he must know about it. You sneak him here, and I'll take him to see someone."

Feng Luo frowned: "Secretly?"

"Yes, secretly. Just don't let Mr. Jin know about it." Xia Chuyi was speaking seriously, when he suddenly screamed "Ouch", which immediately startled Feng Luo and Chang Huan.

"what happened?"

Xia Chuyi covered his mouth and said embarrassingly: "It's okay, I'm biting my tongue."

Feng Luo couldn't help but cry for a while: "Let you eat alone."

"What's the matter with eating alone... Ouch..." Xia Chuyi just wanted to refute, when he felt the wound he had just bitten in his mouth, and immediately wrinkled his small face, feeling very painful.

Feng Luo sighed, got up and left: "Take a good rest, I'll go pick up Yuanbao right now."
