The gambling concubine has an appointment, the prince will come again

Chapter 39 Accidental Discovery
"Good boy," Tao Mo patted Tao Yuanhe's head, and said with a happy face, "So, just listen to me carefully, why are you fighting against me?"

After finishing speaking, he tore off Tao Yuanhe's hand holding his sleeve, and entered Yiranju without looking back.It turned out that the two brothers and sisters had walked through the backyard and walked to Yiranju without knowing it while they were fighting.

Tao Yuanhe looked at Tao Mo's disappearing figure in the darkness, smiled strangely, and turned to Tao Ran's study. He knew that at this point, his father must still be dealing with affairs in the study.

"Little sister, this is an opportunity for you not to give me a chance to speak. Don't blame myna for not reminding you."

Tao Ran's study is in the front yard, which is still some distance away from the Yiran Residence where Tao Mo lives. Therefore, it is not surprising to meet Tao Yuanqing and Tao Yuanshu who are admiring the moon when passing the garden.

Tao Yuanshu saw Tao Yuanhe coming from the direction of Yiranju from a distance, and waved to him with a smile, "Eighth brother, come quickly, and taste the pear blossom drunk that your sixth brother I just dug out."

Tao Yuanhe rolled his eyes, and was speechless at the way his sixth brother recruited puppies, "Sixth brother, do you think you are recruiting puppies?"

Tao Yuanshu grabbed Tao Yuanhe's shoulders, and said with a playful smile, "Oh, they are all my brothers, why bother so much."

Tao Yuanhe waved Tao Yuanshu's arm away, unceremoniously sat on the stone bench where he was originally sitting, poured a glass of wine and drank it down in one gulp.

Tao Yuanqing looked at him carefully, put down the wine glass in his hand, "Are you taking little Mo'er out of the house again?"

Regardless of Tao Yuanshu's unbelievable expression, Tao Yuanhe shouted in dissatisfaction: "Yuanqing! Tell me clearly, what is fooling around! It's so ugly, I'm taking little Mo'er out of the house to relax!"

"Well, I went to the brothel to relax."

"Uh... who, who told you that we went to the brothel!" Even Tao Yuanshu could see the tricks in his stern look.

Tao Yuanqing then drank a glass of wine, and calmly pointed out Tao Yuanhe's flaws, "You smell like makeup."

"Really?" He sniffed the clothes suspiciously, and indeed smelled a strong smell of powder, which should have been in the lobby of Hongyuelou.

A gust of cool wind blew, Tao Yuanqing sniffed the air, stared at Tao Yuanhe, frowned, and said, "You still smell like blood, what's the matter?"

When it came to the main point, Tao Yuanhe straightened his expression, "I think little Mo'er has been out of her mind recently, and I originally wanted to take her out for a stroll today to relax, but who knows, I saw a person in the Seventh Prince's Mansion that none of us could have imagined. people!"

"Seventh prince?" Tao Yuanqing subconsciously exerted force on the hand that was playing with the wine glass.

"Oh, eighth brother, don't be foolish, tell me quickly, who did you see?" Tao Yuanshu couldn't bear his temper, and hurriedly asked Tao Yuanhe to tell the answer.

Tao Yuanqing stared at the pattern on the wine glass, lowered his eyes and thought for a while, and said, "Si Yin." It was obviously a question, but he said it with certainty.

"Si Tu Yin?" Tao Yuanshu had never met Si Tu Yin, and he hadn't heard of anyone in the past few days after returning home, so he didn't have much impression of him.

"It's the casino butler who insisted on living in our Tao Mansion because of Little Mo'er." Tao Yuanhe explained his confusion.

"Oh—" he suddenly realized, "Isn't he the butler of the casino? Why did he go to the Seventh Prince's residence?"

Tao Yuanhe felt that the sixth brother of his family must have put all his IQ on the talent of cooking. You said he understood so well, why Tao Yuanhe still didn't understand? !

Tao Yuanqing kindly reminded: "Didn't you say that Fortune Casino has a royal background?"

"Oh!" Tao Yuanshu clenched his right fist and beat the palm of his left hand, "So that housekeeper belongs to the Seventh Prince!"

Tao Yuanhe, Tao Yuanqing couldn't complain about his IQ, got up helplessly, and walked to Tao Ran's study together.

"Hey! Why are you all gone? Wait for me!" Tao Yuanshu scratched his head inexplicably, and trotted to catch up with the two.

Tao Ran always dealt with affairs very late, so even though there was already the sound of watchdogs outside, Tao Mansion's study room was still brightly lit.

Tao Yuanxi was handing the ledgers sorted out some time ago to Tao Ran for review one by one, whether the two were discussing ideas on some areas, at this moment, Tao Yuan and the three of them walked into the study, interrupting the conversation between the father and son.

Looking at the sky outside the window, Tao Ran frowned and asked, "Why are you messing around in the study without resting so late?"

"Father, why did we become a mess when we got to the study!" Tao Yuanhe looked bitter.

Tao Ran glared at him, "You still have the face to say it! Where did you take Mo'er today?!"

"I don't know how to learn how to manage the family business all day long, but I only know how to take your sister out to mess around. Mo'er has followed you to learn badly! How can you still look like a lady?!"

Tao Yuanhe was about to cry, "Father, my little sister's temper has been there since she was a child, why is she pushing it on me again!"

"Hey! You boy, are you still reasonable?" As if he was about to get up and hit someone.

Tao Yuanhe hurriedly raised his hand to stop, "Father! Father! I was wrong, I was wrong, I shouldn't have taken my little sister out to wander around!"

Tao Ran waved his hands, sat back on the nanmu chair, propped his forehead, and said, "Tell me, why did you come to see me so late?"

"Father, you must never have guessed who Yuan and he met today!" Tao Yuanshu leaned in front of Tao Ran and said with a mysterious expression on his face.

Rubbing his forehead, Tao Ran's voice was a little tired, "Who did you meet, it's worth mobilizing people like you?"

"Hey, Dad, you definitely won't guess it." Tao Yuanshu looked smug, and he didn't notice Tao Ran's darkened face at all.

It was Tao Yuanxi who couldn't bear to see his younger brother being so stupid, so he asked Tao Yuanqing, the most reliable of the three, "Ninth brother, tell me."

"Si Yin," Tao Yuanqing pursed his lips as he watched the two of them frown because of the name, and continued, "Myna saw him in the Seventh Prince's Mansion."

Tao Yuanxi had never met Situ Yin before, and he knew that it was because Tao Yuanren had slipped his tongue before that he knew that such a shameless man had pestered his little sister into the mansion!Therefore, I didn't have a good impression of this person. When I heard Tao Yuanqing mention it, I frowned subconsciously, and then I heard that this person was related to the Seventh Prince, and my perception of him was even worse.

Tao Ran met Situ Yin in the backyard. The first time he saw this man, he knew that he was definitely not someone in the pool. Although he had thought that the man was from the Seventh Prince's side, he later saw that he left Tao's mansion on his own initiative, so he also Without thinking deeply, it seems that this Situ Yin, I am afraid that Bhutandan is the subordinate of the Seventh Prince!

"Yuan He, what is Si Yin doing in the Seventh Prince's Mansion?" Tao Ran asked.

"I wandered over there, and only saw Si Yin getting into the carriage at the entrance of the Seventh Prince's Mansion. I thought the coachman was a master of the inner family, so I followed him all the way out of curiosity."

Tao Ran motioned for them to sit down, "Go on."

"On the other side of North Street, a group of black-clothed assassins suddenly rushed out and surrounded his carriage." Tao Yuanhe paused, and continued: "It was also at that time that I discovered that there was always a group of martial artists around Si Yin. High-strength masters are protecting him."

Tao Yuanxi glanced at Tao Yuanhe, and asked, "Excellent martial arts? Didn't you discover that group of people before?" It wasn't because he was boasting, the martial arts of his eighth younger brother is also ranked first in the Jianghu, if even he hadn't discovered , then it is conceivable who are the people who are following Situ Yin!
"No," Tao Yuanhe shook his head, "If they didn't show up, I wouldn't even know where they are."

"According to what you said, this Si Yin is just a casino butler, how come there are so many experts around him to protect him? Unless..." Tao Yuanxi couldn't help but change color when he thought of the answer in his heart.

Tao Ran naturally thought of it too, his brows were furrowed, "Come here."

The servants waiting outside heard the call and immediately entered the room, "What is the master's order?"

"Go and call the young masters to the study." After pondering for a while, "send someone to inform Madam to let her rest early. Tonight, the young masters and I have something to discuss in the study."

"Yes, the slave will do it now."

"Well, hurry up."

"Yes."

Tao Yuanshu was a little uneasy by the heavy atmosphere in the study, he hesitated and called out, "Father..."

"Come over here first and help me finish what I'm doing. We'll discuss it when they all arrive." Tao Yuan and his big hand waved, and the three of them were recruited as labor.

For a while, the study fell silent, only the rustling sound of a few people flipping through the ledger.

After a while, the other brothers of the Tao family were dug up from the bed by the servants and brought to the study.At this time, Tao Ran and the others still had some ledgers that they hadn't read, so a group of people read the rest of the ledgers before looking at Tao Ran who was sitting at the top without knowing why.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit heavy, Tao Yuanbin spoke first, "Father, why did you call us to the study so late?"

Tao Ran rubbed his forehead, "Listen to Yuanhe first."

A group of people stared at Tao Yuanhe, and Tao Yuanhe, who was staring at Alexander, was momentarily at a loss for words.

"Brother took Mo'er out of the house tonight..." Tao Yuanqing saw that Tao Yuanhe was useless, so he directly spoke about what Tao Yuanhe had seen and heard that night.

It was getting darker, and the sound of the watchman beating the watch could be heard faintly from the street in the distance. Suddenly, it was already the third watch!
The candles in the study had been replaced with new ones by the servants, but the flickering candles could not illuminate the shadows in the hearts of several people in the room.

"So, that Si Yin is the Seventh Prince?" Tao Yuanyi was the first to break the silence in the room.

"Besides the Seventh Prince, I can't think of him having anything to do with the palace." Tao Yuanhe nodded.

Tao Yuanbin took a sip of tea to refresh himself, and asked, "If Si Yin is indeed the Seventh Prince, then what's the point of doing all this? What's the purpose?"

"I just don't know," Tao Yuanhe interrupted, "I see that his attitude towards my little sister is very good today, it doesn't look like a fake, but"

"But, if he is really the Seventh Prince, why doesn't he just admit his identity?" Tao Yuanzhi continued Tao Yuanhe's words.

Tao Ran nodded, "Indeed, none of us know what the Seventh Prince wants to do, but from Yuan He's description, this Seventh Prince is definitely not as powerless as the outside world said!"
