Chapter 37: Gossip(1/2)

Back at Yizhai, Yin Zixun saw the nine fish being soaked and couldn't bear to scold him.

When you turn around, be sure to place a cover outside the carriage to keep out the wind and rain without affecting the riding of the horse.

After less than a moment of rest, Jiuyu, who had returned to the house to change clothes, hurried over.

"Sir, there is news!"

As he spoke, he handed him a note.

This is the news that Jiuyu followed his instructions and asked his dead men to investigate Jiulin's identity.

He opened the note and was shocked when he saw it.

His brows were furrowed, his face full of confusion.

"Li country? He is from Li country."

The Kingdom of Li is located to the east of the Kingdom of China, separated by the East China Sea.

Its strength is comparable to that of China, but it has been relatively peaceful in recent years.

In a few months, envoys from the Li Kingdom will visit, probably for peace negotiations.

But why do people from Li country want to harm themselves?

He is not an important minister in the court. Although the Yin family is particularly powerful, he is too weak to serve as an official. It is still unknown whether he will survive until next year.

Many questions surrounded Yin Zixun's mind one by one, but he never found the answer.

"Nothing else was found except this? Who is he from? Are there any of the Yin family and his accomplices who haven't found out?"

The content on the note only stated that he was from Li country and nothing else.

Jiuyu nodded, "Jiu Lin rarely comes into contact with other people, and his personality is also withdrawn. No suspicious person has been found, and we have not found out how he delivers the news. Naturally, we can't trace the person who contacted him."

Yin Zixun lowered his eyes and thought.

After a while, he nodded slightly and said: "There shouldn't be anything found. I'll tell you to go down and there's no need to investigate. If the people from Li want to kill me, they will definitely do it again in the future. It won't be too late to follow the clues and follow the clues."

Knock knock knock.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.

Yin Zixun and Jiuyu were immediately alert.

This Yizhai is his pseudonym of Mr. Yi. He has just entered the capital not long ago. Except for Li Su and the fourth prince, ordinary people will not come here at all.

Moreover, when Li Su and the Fourth Prince came, they never knocked on the door.

At this time, it is raining heavily again. Who will come to Yizhai?

He glanced at Jiuyu, who understood.

With alert eyes, he held an umbrella and walked toward the door.

Yin Zixun was sitting in the upper seat of the hall. The door was wide open. Through the pouring rain, he could vaguely see what was happening at the door.

Not long after, Jiu Yu trotted back, still holding the invitation in his hand.

"Sir, this is an invitation from the Yu family, inviting you to attend Mrs. Yu's birthday banquet in the Yu Mansion in two days."

Yin Zixun took the invitation and was slightly surprised, but soon understood.

"After all, it was the chief minister of the dynasty who guessed my identity after just seeing me once. I am afraid that within a few days after this invitation is handed out, the whole capital will know that Mr. Yi is Yin Zixun. But that's okay.

, I can’t keep Mr. Yi’s name secret for long.”

"Then Young Master, do you want your subordinates to reject it?" Young Master hates attending banquets and the like. If he doesn't attend because he is sick, even the first assistant will probably not say anything.

-

At night, Ye Shuhua sat in front of the carved window, deep in thought.

Zhuyao's legs were not fully healed yet, but she was very good at mental arithmetic and accounting. She was dragged by Aunt Hu to take charge of Huatingyuan's accounts.

Zhuyue has no skills and only knows martial arts. Her leg injury has not fully recovered yet, so she is staying by Ye Shuhua's side for the time being.

Zhuying followed the instructions and went to find out the news.

A quarter of an hour later, Zhuying came back and reported.

"Miss, there is nothing unusual about Xu Junying, the legitimate son of the Xu family, and she has not been in contact with Ye Shuyu. My subordinates also asked the concierge that Ye Shuyu did not go out all day today except to buy medicine for Mrs. Ye. She only stayed in the house for Mrs. Ye.

Two days later, I was preparing to attend Yufu’s birthday banquet and made several new clothes.”

She raised her eyebrows and nodded slightly, and said clearly: "No wonder you are so quiet. It turns out to be because of this."

Naturally, Ye Shuyu was not preparing for Mrs. Yu's birthday party, but was preparing to meet the prince.

Mr. Yu is the chief minister of the dynasty and the uncle of the old country, and his son holds military power to guard the border. It is natural that the prince will attend Mrs. Yu's birthday party.

Ye Shuyu liked the prince, so of course she had to dress up carefully.

"Okay, no need to stare."

The prince is attending the birthday banquet of the Yu Mansion, so she shouldn't cause any trouble, so don't worry about her for now.

The main reason was that when she went to Yu Mansion this time, she had to find an opportunity to talk to Mr. Yu alone.

The next day, it rained all night and finally cleared up.

The sun is shining brightly, the breeze is refreshing, and there is also the fragrance of moist soil.

After detoxifying Yin Zixun, I have been taking good care of myself these days. Then I was delayed due to the incident with Grandma Hu, so I haven't drawn a picture album.

After getting up and freshening up, I finished the painting I painted last night.

This is a brand new story "Tales of Ghosts" after "The Legend of Stars", which tells the story of good and evil, love and love between ghosts and ghosts.

This is her response to the rumors that she is a ghost painter.

This was a story she had planned to make a living in her previous lives. Unexpectedly, it was so popular.

After the painting was completed, she handed it to Jicui and asked Jicui to take it to Fang Fang's study.

But something came to mind and I decided to deliver it myself.

The bamboo shadow drives the horse, and the carriage moves steadily and quickly.

"Miss, Fang's study has arrived."

After getting off the carriage, Jicui followed behind, holding a cloak, an umbrella and the drawing in his hand.

Entering the study, Chen Cong hurriedly greeted him and said respectfully: "Master's house."

The study is not very big, and he is the only one in the entire study. Since he only sells picture albums and ordinary paper and ink, he can handle it alone.

Ye Shuhua nodded, then raised his hand to signal Ji Cui to give him the thing.

He said: "This is the drawing of the past two days. After the rubbings are made, don't forget to send them to Sanxun Study. Also, if Mr. Yi comes here, give them to him. If he wants to drink tea, please give them to him."

There’s no need to stop him, just take him to the second floor for a drink. You don’t have to collect money and you can’t drive him away. Whenever he wants to leave, just let him go.”

"Yes." Chen Cong said humbly.

After that, Ye Shuhua went to a jade shop in person and selected a pair of high-quality jade bracelets as a birthday gift for Mrs. Yu.

It was true that the Yu family took good care of her, and thanks to this, Ye Zhao did not kill herself.

But it's not much better for me. If Aunt Hu hadn't taken good care of me during this period, I would probably still die.

Therefore, for her, the Yu family is better than Ye Zhao, who only wants her to die, but it is not much better.

It is most appropriate to give a high-quality but common jade bracelet.

In addition, she went to Yu Mansion this time to negotiate, and giving gifts was just a formality and not the main point.

It was almost noon when we returned to Huatingyuan. Aunt Hu was taking care of the courtyard, and the maids and servants were basically ready.

As soon as she walked to the main room, she saw lunch had been prepared.

After lunch, Ye Shuhua habitually came to the courtyard and lay on a rocking chair to bask in the sun.

After finishing everything, Nanny Hu hurried over and said anxiously: "Miss, there are rumors about your affair with Yin Zixun. Is that Yin Zixun the man who sent you back yesterday?"

Ye Shuhua was enjoying the warm sunbath with her eyes squinted. When she heard this, her eyes opened slightly and she sat up.

"Yin Zixun?" she murmured.

Didn't he use the pseudonym Mr. Yi?

But why are there rumors of an affair with Yin Zixun?

After thinking for a moment, she realized a little bit. It seemed that everyone in the capital knew his true identity.

Yesterday, on a rainy day, she got into his carriage openly and openly, and then was blatantly sent back to Ye Mansion.

It was inevitable that he would be seen by interested people. If he also knew his identity, and with his easily blackened physique, it wouldn't be surprising if there were rumors about him for a long time.

Since her divorce, her reputation has been ruined. She doesn't care about this rumor, and she doesn't care about these false reputations in the first place.

She doesn't plan to get married in this life, and it doesn't matter whether she has a good reputation or not.

However, Yin Zixun is indeed innocent.
