As soon as Nan Nan returned home, after meeting Yu Qing, he went to the study to talk to Ye Xiu alone.
The father and son talked inside for a long time, and even the dinner was brought in by the servants. The two of them talked until it was completely dark before they came out.
Nan Nan was dusty and tired, and his face could not hide his tiredness, but his eyes were shining brightly and he was very energetic.
It has been several days since he left the imperial capital. Hall Master Ning has now retired and went to Fengcheng to recuperate. After all, the person he was dealing with this time was the old man who had followed him before. Out of respect, he should go and say hello to him.
The original plan was to come back tomorrow, but he was so eager to return home that he arrived at Prince Xiu's Mansion tonight.
I haven't seen her for several days, and I don't know if she misses him.
You should think about it, after all, there are not many people as good-looking as him in the world. Even if you just look at the appearance, it is impressive enough and often comes to mind, right
Nannan walked into his courtyard while thinking.
As soon as I stood at the door, I felt someone was in my house.
He frowned and pushed the door directly in. When he saw the man sitting in the darkness writing quickly, his forehead couldn't help but twitch. He lit the candlestick himself, then walked to the closet aside and took out the candlestick. A night suit.
The light in the room suddenly brightened, and the light suddenly fell on Ye Qingbei, who was writing next to the table, and also on the paper on the table.
What I saw on the paper was an ink painting of mountains. Although it was only black and white, it exuded a majestic and majestic atmosphere.
Ye Qingbei was very satisfied with his painting in the dark, nodded slightly and put down the pen.
Looking back, he saw Nan Nan holding the night clothes, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "Brother, are you going to Lan Mansion?"
"Well, how did the investigation that I asked you to investigate go?" Nannan said, and went behind the screen, asking while changing clothes.
Ye Qingbei sat down again and replied, "After checking, the life of the eldest daughter of the Lan family in the Lan family... is indeed unsatisfactory."
After he said this, he heard a rustling sound and paused for a moment.
Ye Qingbei smiled and continued, "I have written down the specific parts that are not good. Brother, take a look for yourself..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a figure flash in front of him. Ye Qingnan had already flashed in front of him, took the note from his hand, and unfolded it.
"By the way, there is one more thing. During the day today, my mother held a lotus appreciation banquet and invited many ladies from official families, including, of course, the eldest daughter of the Lan family."
In fact, he was the first person to know what the elder brother was thinking.
The eldest brother didn't like him since he was a child, well, because he was a boy. Compared to Nian Nian, the eldest brother simply hurt her to the core.
However, his relationship with his eldest brother was far better than outsiders imagined.
The trust between them is probably unmatched by anyone.
The eldest brother had been to the Lan Mansion before and came back and said that he felt that the eldest daughter of the Lan family was a little too shabby in her clothing and accommodation, which might be a little bad.
But at that time, he had to deal with Yufengtang's affairs, so he handed over the investigation of this matter to him.
Well, he lived up to expectations and did a lot of research.
This also includes the eldest daughter of the Lan family who has worked hard to protect her mother over the years. It should be said that the Jin family has always wanted to demote Miss Lan's mother Wu to a concubine, but I don't know why. They have used many methods over the years, but they can only elevate the Jin family to the status of an equal wife. , but the Wu family cannot be abolished.
All of this is due to the eldest girl of the Lan family.
It is really not easy to achieve this point in such an environment where the father does not care about the grandmother and is suspected of not being a child of the Lan family.
Ye Qingnan listened to him and looked at the note in his hand.
By the time he finished reading the last line, his face was so dark that he could hand out ink.
With a "pop" sound, he slapped his palm on the table, and the note in his hand was crushed to pieces. Even the brush Ye Qingbei placed on the table bounced twice and landed on his ink painting that was ready to dry. , added a strong touch.
Ye Qingbei secretly felt pity, raised his eyes to look at Ye Qingnan, and asked, "Brother, what are you going to do?"
"I'm going to kill a few people now." Ye Qingnan raised the corners of his mouth and sneered.
Ye Qingbei sighed, "If you kill them, will Miss Lan's life be better?"
"No." Ye Qingnan's smile continued, "But I still want to kill them."
"..." He is so willful and hopeless.
Ye Qingbei shrugged, "Brother, go ahead."
Ye Qingnan glared at him fiercely, "It's getting late, you should go back to your room and rest."
"..." The eldest brother really made the best use of everything. After completing his task, he began to drive people away without politeness.
Ye Qingbei silently put away the ink paintings that had turned into waste paper on the table, got up and walked out the door.
Halfway through, he suddenly turned around and asked him, "What are you going to do next, brother?"
"Clear her name!!" Ye Qingnan narrowed his eyes slightly, "Then, kill them."
With that said, he tidied up Ye Xing's clothes and said to Ye Qingbei, "I'm going to Lan Mansion."
As soon as he finished speaking, he left the house one step ahead of Ye Qingbei.
"..." Ye Qingbei was very helpless. Brother, you went to the Lan Mansion in the middle of the night. Are you sure you went to clear the name of the eldest girl of the Lan family? Didn't you bring her a bad name
kindness? Wait, correct the name? What's the name
Ye Qingbei touched his chin, puzzled, but his eyes lit up slightly.
It seemed like there was something else he hadn't found out.
He glanced at his eldest brother's house, turned around, closed the door, and left.
And Ye Xiudu, who had rushed out of Prince Xiu's Mansion earlier, had reached the roof of Lan Mansion in less than two quarters of an hour.
The Lan Mansion was silent, it was already late at night, only the servants on night duty occasionally passed by carrying lanterns.
Ye Qingnan moved quickly and quietly arrived at the yard where Lan Shuiqing lived.
Looking at the small courtyard in front of her, she thought of what she explained to herself last time. Why did you ask to move here just to take care of your sick mother nearby
It was obviously those cannibals in Lan Mansion who forced her to move here. These ungrateful things would make their life worse than death sooner or later.
The smile on Nan Nan's lips became colder and colder, and then she walked into the courtyard.
But from a distance, he saw Lan Shuiqing's room still lit with candles, and under the shadow of the lamp was her figure tilting her head and writing.
The next moment, he heard her little maid's voice, which seemed to be called Yanzhi, "Miss, stop writing. The madam punished you to copy the female commandments. Didn't you say that you won't hand them in until the day after tomorrow? It's already so late, you're early Get some sleep."
