When the First Elder started to investigate Yun Ruoyan's life experience, he hadn't met Queen Xuetong yet. He just saw Li Mo's unusual attitude towards Yun Ruoyan, so he started to investigate.
After the Great Elder met Queen Xuetong, the investigation of Yun Ruoyan's identity went a step further.
After finding out that Yun Ruoyan had the blood of a demon dragon, the elder had already decided to be loyal to Queen Xuetong, so he told the queen about Yun Ruoyan's life experience.
"How do you judge that Lin Yuemei is still alive?" Queen Xuetong asked the First Elder.
"I sent someone to open the coffin in Yun's tomb for an autopsy, and it turned out that it was just a clothes tomb."
The Great Elder replied: "Later, the people I sent accidentally learned that there was an unnamed tomb in the Lin family's tomb, and this unnamed tomb was built not long after Lin Yuemei died. But at that time, there was no one in the Lin family. passed away, so I asked him to look at the unnamed tomb, which alarmed Lin Zainan, and then I learned from Lin Zainan's mouth that Lin Yuemei was not dead."
The Great Elder looked at Queen Xuetong after finishing speaking, and said: "It's just that I don't think you should keep this matter from Yumo. Even if we don't tell him, he will find out sooner or later. And we deliberately kept him from it. will blame us."
Xue Tong heard the elder's words, and there was determination in her cold voice: "I've thought about everything you said, but now Mo'er has feelings for Yun Ruoyan, I'm afraid he will miss things because of love at the critical moment, It’s better to keep it a secret from him for now.”
Li Mo's deep affection for Yun Ruoyan was witnessed by the First Elder. If one day it came time to use Yun Ruoyan or even sacrifice her, Li Mo might not be able to do so.
"Have you ever thought about meeting this Yun Ruoyan? After all, Yumo is going to marry her." The Great Elder said suddenly.
"No, my identity cannot be known to outsiders. Let the two go through more experience first. If one day it is confirmed that Yun Ruoyan is really sacrificed for Mo'er, it will not be too late for me to see her again." Queen Xuetong said.
If you want to form an alliance with the Demon Dragon Clan, you must use the only blood of the Demon Dragon Clan left on the Shenyuan Continent.
It's just that this matter should not be rushed, but must be planned step by step. This is an opportunity given by God, no matter what, Empress Xuetong must seize it.
In the past few days, Yun Ruoyan and Yun Mo Xiao have been investigating the affairs of his mother, Lin Yuemei.
Naturally, the two of them couldn't ask Yun Lan directly, so they had no clue for a while.
Yun Ruoyan tried to learn something about Lin Yuemei from Liu Shi, but Liu Shi didn't know much about Lin Yuemei.
According to Liu Shi, since Lin Yuemei married into the Yun family, Yun Lan has protected her very well.
In order to prevent Lin Yuemei from being bullied, Yunlan accompanied Lin Yuemei to greet her elders sooner or later, and had confronted her elders for Lin Yuemei more than once.
Mrs. Liu said that Yunlan was a very sensible and motivated child since she was a child. Only when it came to Lin Yuemei's affairs, she seemed to be possessed by a demon. The elders couldn't help it, so they let him go.
Yun Ruoyan thought for a while and asked, "Grandmother, after my mother married my father, did she leave the Yun family for a long time?"
Mrs. Liu also thought about it, and said: "Your mother moved to Fanghuayuan after giving birth to your brother, and we have rarely seen her since then. But it should be impossible to leave home for a long time, right? Yan'er, why did you remember to ask this?"
"It's nothing, I heard from my grandfather that my mother was very lively and active when she was young, so I'll just ask." Yun Ruoyan said casually.
Mrs. Liu frowned slightly, and recalled: "I didn't notice the liveliness, but your mother is indeed a rare beauty, but beauty is beautiful, but she doesn't like to smile."
"Oh, that's it." Yun Ruoyan said casually, and handed the freshly peeled walnut to Mrs. Liu, "Grandma, eat a walnut."
Didn't get any valuable information from Mrs. Liu, so the two discussed to start investigating some clues about Lin Yuemei's stay in Yunfu from some old people in Yunfu.
Yun Moxiao started with some servants, while Yun Ruoyan set his target on Qin Jianmei.
Yun Ruoyan knew that Qin Jianmei had a good relationship with her mother, so she might know something valuable.
It happened that Yun Ruoyu came to play with Yun Ruoyan early in the morning, and the two drank half a cup of tea and ate some snacks in the room.
Yun Ruoyu asked Yun Ruoyan about things in the Kongming Academy, and Yun Ruoyan probably told her something.
Yun Ruoyan asked her about the situation in Yunfu during this time and how An's went crazy. At first, Yun Ruoyan spoke normally when she saw Yun Ruoyu, but when she mentioned An's going crazy, her expression changed. And the tone is a bit unnatural.
Although Yun Ruoyu's unnaturalness was not obvious, it still couldn't escape Yun Ruoyan's eyes.
Yun Ruoyan felt strange, although she couldn't think of the reason for a while, but she kept a special eye in her heart.
When Yun Ruoyu was leaving, Yun Ruoyan proposed to go to Jianmeixuan with her to see Qin Jianmei.
Yun Ruoyu was slightly surprised, and said: "My mother should be doing morning class at this time, I'm afraid she doesn't have time to entertain my sister."
"It doesn't matter." Yun Ruoyan said casually: "I can wait in the yard. It is deep winter now, and it snowed again yesterday. The plum blossoms in Jianmei Xuan must have bloomed vigorously. I just took advantage of this opportunity Go to appreciate winter plums."
Seeing what Yun Ruoyan said, Yun Ruoyu couldn't postpone it any longer, and the two of them went to Jianmeixuan except Tinglanyuan.
When passing by Anshi's yard, there was the sound of Anshi crying and laughing from inside.
"Mother has always been strong and doesn't seem like someone who breaks down so easily, why did she suddenly go crazy?" Yun Ruoyan couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
"Madam didn't go crazy all of a sudden." At this moment, Ling Lan who was following Yun Ruoyan took Yun Ruoyan's words casually.
In the past few days, Shaoyao and Xilan suddenly saw their young lady come back, they were busy preparing meals and refreshments, they were very busy.
The two suddenly discovered that Yun Ruoyan had actually grown half a head taller than in the few months since they left. The winter clothes they made before were all too small, and they were busy redoing them.
Because they were worried that Yun Ruoyan would leave suddenly, the two of them were too busy to turn on the lights and fight at night, trying to drive out the winter clothes before Yun Ruoyan left so that she could take them with her.
So Yun Ruoyan took Lily of the Valley with her when she walked around the Yun Mansion in the past two days.
Ling Lan said that An's didn't go crazy suddenly, Yun Ruoyan asked her, how did she know
"I often play with a sweeping girl in the wife's courtyard. I heard from her that although their wife was very sad after the death of the eldest lady, she is still in good spirits."
Ling Lan said: "It's just that there are some root causes of the disease, coupled with the grief of losing my daughter, the disease became more and more serious. I saw many doctors and took a lot of medicine. Afterwards, the disease gradually recovered, but the spirit But it is getting worse day by day, at the beginning, I often talk in my sleep at night, and then I start talking nonsense during the day, and then I go crazy."
"So it wasn't sudden madness." Yun Ruoyan felt a little strange, it would not be surprising if she suffered a major blow and couldn't bear it and suddenly went crazy, but it would be strange to go a little crazy like Ling Lan said.
"Sister Ruoyao's death really hit my mother a lot."
Yun Ruoyu half pulled Yun Ruoyan's arm and sighed: "She can't take it physically, and she will definitely not be able to take it in her heart after a long time. I went to see her when Sister Ruoyao first left, but my mother suddenly got angry and threw her I scolded, and I dare not go to see her again."
While talking, the two arrived at Jianmeixuan. Although Jianmeixuan is located in a relatively remote place in Yunfu, the place is unique and elegant.
The small yard is full of bright red amidst the snow and white, and the winter plum blossoms in the yard are unusually beautiful. Compared with this season, Yunfu is the place with the best scenery.
Although they are all located in a remote place, this Jianmei Pavilion looks much better than Yun Ruoyan's Tinglan Garden from the outside, which shows that Yun Lan treats Qin Jianmei differently.
"Mother, Sister Ruoyan and I have come to see you." Yun Ruoyu called out to a room as soon as the two entered the yard.
However, Yun Ruoyu's cry did not get an immediate response from Qin Jianmei.
"My mother must be doing morning class." Yun Ruoyu said, "Let's go to the living room to warm up first."
After Yun Ruoyu finished speaking, she pulled Yun Ruoyan into another room, and she called Mei Xiang as she walked.
A plainly dressed little maid came out, and Yun Ruoyu asked her to prepare tea.
"Sister Ruoyan, don't be offended. There is only Meixiang in the Jianmei Pavilion. I'm afraid the service of tea and snacks is not thoughtful enough." Yun Ruoyu said.
"It's okay, I happened to go out to admire the plum blossoms while I was waiting for tea." Yun Ruoyan stood up as soon as she sat down in the hall.
As she walked out of the house, she said to Ling Lan beside her, "Go and help Mei Xiang, give her a hand."
Ling Lan left at the sound, and Yun Ruoyan also walked out of the house.
"Sister Ruoyan, don't freeze when it's so cold outside." Yun Ruoyu hurriedly followed Yun Ruoyan out of the room.
The plum blossoms were blooming in the yard, and Yun Ruoyan pretended to admire the plum blossoms, but her eyes were intentionally or unintentionally looking at a small house near the west.
There was a strong fragrance coming from that room, it smelled like the sandalwood from worshiping Buddha, but it was much more fragrant than ordinary sandalwood.
"It smells so good!" Yun Ruoyan sniffed her nose and said, "It doesn't smell like ordinary sandalwood."
"Oh, this is sandalwood made by my mother herself." Yun Ruoyu explained.
At this time, with a creaking sound, the door of the side room was opened, and Qin Jianmei in plain clothes came out from the room.
"Second Miss, why are you interested in coming to my place today?" Qin Jianmei walked towards Yun Ruoyan, smiling as she walked.
"The snow is good today. I thought the plum blossoms here must be good, so I followed sister Ruoyu." Yun Ruoyan also walked towards Qin Jianmei.
"My aunt has been burning incense and worshiping Buddha for more than ten years. She is really a devout believer."
Yun Ruoyan turned her head to look at the room behind her that had been closed by Qin Jianmei, and said, "I heard from Ruoyu that Auntie worshiped a Bodhisattva before, but if Ruoyan wants to go to worship today, I wonder if it's convenient?"
