The end of the month is coming soon, and the old lady sent two capable stewards to Shuiyue Temple to pick them up.

Because the case of the premature concubine's birth has come to light, the culprit behind the scenes is the second concubine and her mother's family. Although the second prince strongly denied his knowledge, he was still demoted by the emperor as a commoner and sent to the imperial mausoleum for lifelong house arrest. The second concubine's family was sent to death row and executed soon.

Then the Yangzhou salt tax case broke out, and the tax money embezzled by Yangzhou officials was more than 30 million taels, which was worth ten years of treasury revenue. The emperor was furious and ordered the Longlin Guard to take over the case and investigate it to the end. The nine clans who should be punished, those who should be beheaded, those who should be dismissed from office, and extrajudicial tolerance will never be allowed.

The end of the month is the time when everyone is in danger, not to mention that the doors of the houses of the major families are closed, and even the pedestrians on the road are much less. Only Caishikou is very lively, and several heads can be swept out every day, and countless prisoners are held in Longlin Guard Center, where they are subjected to inhuman torture and torture.

You can imagine how busy Yu Pinyan was. Little things like Shen Miaoqi's return home did not leave a mark on his heart at all, and he went out early in the morning to run errands.

Seeing that it was about the same time, the old lady walked to the door of Yi to welcome her. Seeing that Yu Xiang had already been waiting outside and had even burned a brazier to get rid of bad luck, she immediately felt very satisfied. That's right, according to Shen Miaoqi's fate, before entering the door, she really had to go to avoid bad luck and avoid evil.

Mrs. Lin came in a hurry, straightening her forehead hair and tugging at the skirt, looking very nervous, and waved again and again to send Nanny Jin to visit outside the gate.

"Here we come, Miss is back!" Nanny Jin rushed forward holding her skirt, followed by a large group of strong girls carrying boxes and cages.

Shen Miaoqi is wearing a flowing cloud bun, pinning a lace golden phoenix hairpin, and wearing a palace satin snow-covered long dress, accompanied by the warm spring breeze and flying petals step by step, her beautiful face is as gentle as water, and her elegant demeanor is full of vitality. natural.

However, in just half a month, she has shed the humbleness of a businesswoman and a servant, and has become a real lady of the big family.

Not only Lin's eyes showed ecstasy, but even the old lady couldn't help nodding. That's how it finally got to the stage.

Shen Miaoqi's watery eyes searched the crowd, skipping over the smiling Yu Siyu, and looking straight at the girl in the wheelchair, the string called jealousy in her heart was stretched to the extreme, and it was about to break.

She inquired about Yu Xiang's situation from Nanny Qin overtly and secretly, all she knew was that she had a broken leg at the age of ten, with a pungent personality and a beautiful appearance, she was a wonderful person. The old lady and Yu Pinyan liked it very much.

She originally thought that the other party and herself were only siblings, and maybe even a little bit inferior, because she was a beauty since she was a child, and she could attract countless amazing eyes wherever she went. However, after seeing the real Yu Xiang, she realized that Nanny Qin's hesitation of saying the word "beautiful" was not an insincere compliment, but a helpless act of not being able to think of a more appropriate adjective.

I saw the girl reclining lazily on the wheelchair, with one hand resting on her knee and the other resting on her chin. Her beautiful black and white eyes were looking over her, shining brighter and brighter than the spring day. . Her skin is as white as snow, and her eyebrows are not the curving willow-leaf eyebrows that are popular nowadays, but thick and black sword eyebrows. Pretty and bright, but also revealing a heroic domineering that belongs only to men.

How can she be described as charming and beautiful? But it was so fiercely beautiful, so flamboyantly beautiful, so beautiful that there was nowhere to hide her teeth and claws, making Shen Miaoqi feel breathless just by looking at it.

Yu Xiang is Shen Miaoqi's identified enemy, she will unconsciously compare everything she owns with Yu Xiang, and then decide whether to win or lose. She thought she was no worse than Yu Xiang, especially after half a month of hard training, but after seeing a real person, she realized that even if Yu Xiang couldn't walk, she couldn't support her noble family in front of her. Feminine aura.

She only slightly raised her eyebrows, raised her jaw, and her extremely simple movements already brought out a 120,000-point arrogance.

Shen Miaoqi didn't dare to take a second look, her heart was disturbed and her steps became disordered. Getting closer to the brazier, she took deep breaths to try to regain her composure.

Just at this moment, the voice of the servant saying hello came from the door.

Shen Miaoqi looked back, but saw Yu Pinyan walking in with a blank face, holding an embroidered spring knife in his hand, wearing a crimson official robe, the hem seemed to be stained with a lot of liquid, which dyed the already strong crimson red The color of ink, the liquid was very thick, and it slid from the fabric drop by drop as he walked.

A gust of wind blew by, instead of the fragrance of blooming flowers, it brought a disgusting fishy smell.

Shen Miaoqi saw the series of bright red dots dotted on the bluestone slab and realized that the hem of his clothes was not stained with water, but blood. How many people must be killed to bring out such a strong smell of blood? To get all the heavy fabrics wet

Shen Miaoqi seemed to have returned to the dark dungeon of Longlin Guard, her legs and feet couldn't help but feel weak.

At that time, she had already walked to the door, and Jin Momo kindly reminded, "Miss, it's time to step over the brazier."

Shen Miaoqi raised her foot reflexively, but because she couldn't stand firmly, she stepped into the red-hot coals, and jumped away hastily with a cry. A few sparks splashed and landed on her long skirt, immediately burning a few scorched black holes.

Yu Pinyan went straight past her, bent down to hug the well-dressed younger sister, and reached out to brush her forehead hair that was blown by the wind.

"Brother, you have blood spots on your face." Yu Xiang took out a handkerchief to help him wipe it off.

After the blood dried up, it stuck tightly to the skin, and it was very difficult to clean up. Yu Xiang squinted her eyes and snickered, and applied the wet fingertips on the blood spot, and then wiped it off gently.

Yu Pinyan didn't dislike her at all, his eyes lingered on her delicate red lips for a long time, and then he looked at Shen Miaoqi who was frantically flapping her skirt and looked in a panic.

The sparks were quickly extinguished, and the old lady yelled, "Why are you panicking? What's your name? You're so scared by even the slightest thing! Why don't you hurry up and take the young lady to change clothes!"

Lin's heart ached and shed tears, and hurried back to her room with her shocking daughter in her arms.

The old lady brushed away the smoke flying from her nose, and looked at the overturned brazier with a long sigh. As expected, she was the lone star of Tiansha, how could a brazier dispel the bad luck she carried.

Thinking of this, she pointed to Wan Qiu and ordered, "Go and tell Miao Qi to let her take a bath with grapefruit leaves before meeting me in the front hall."

Wan Qiu promised in a low voice and hurried down.

"Yan'er, hurry up and wash it up, look what you did with it." The impatience in the old lady's tone was replaced by distress. Recently, two major cases have fallen on the head of the grandson. It is really a crime to kill people by torture. If Junjie hadn't left early, leaving the house full of old and weak women and children and a bunch of wolf-like uncles, how could the grandson have embarked on this difficult and dangerous road.

Yu Pinyan nodded, and took his sister away along the way.

In the simple and elegant room, Yu Xiang was half-sitting on the soft couch, playing with a snuff bottle in his hand, but his eyes were darting straight behind the steaming screen.

Liu Lu stood outside the door, not daring to go in, feeling anxious like a cat scratching. How can there be any reason for a brother to bathe and a sister to guard the inner room? However, the two brothers and sisters never knew how to avoid taboos, that's all when they were young, but now that they are getting older, they don't take it seriously, this habit has to be changed, change it immediately, otherwise how will the master get married in the future

As soon as he took a foot, he stepped on the blood-soaked official robe, and the blood quickly climbed up the toe of the shoe along the fabric. The bright red color looked very frightening. Xiang Taohong, who was standing not far away playing with the birds, secretly sighed: It's good to be a fool, I don't have any troubles.

There was a sound of rushing water behind the screen, and after a while, a handsome young man came out with wet hair, a black brocade robe wrapped around his body, and only a jade belt tied around his waist. Big chest and some firm abs. His bronzed skin glistened with water, making him look extremely sexy.

Yu Xiang's ears were hot, but his eyes were stuck to the young man and he couldn't take them off. He didn't realize that his fingertips had poked his hard abdominal muscles until he heard a low, hoarse laugh, and were walking along the lines of the texture.

The tips of her ears turned red in an instant.

Yu Pinyan naturally held her little hand back, slowly brought it up, and finally covered her generous chest, making her feel her more anxious and eager mood day by day.

The beating of the heart was very fast, but also very steady, thud, thud, like a small hammer hitting his palm, Yu Xiang felt that his palm was not covering the skin, but covering the coals, the temperature was hot amazing.

She moved her fingertips and wanted to withdraw her hand, but the young man let go of the big palm pressing on the back of her hand first, and handed over a cloth towel, "Wipe my hair for me."

The charming atmosphere shattered like bubbles, Yu Xiang blinked in a daze, then picked up the handkerchief and wiped it gently, then leaned on his brother's back as attached as before, sniffing the sandalwood fragrance in his hair.

Neither of them spoke, and their rapid heartbeats returned to normal in the silence. Yu Xiang chuckled slyly, put her slender arms around the young man's neck, and asked, "Brother, if I fall into the water with my sister at the same time, who will you save first?"

What is the problem? Jealous? Yu Pinyan didn't answer, but laughed to himself. The arms around the neck were getting tighter and tighter, as if warning him that if he didn't give a satisfactory answer quickly, he would be ruthless.

Yu Pinyan spread his arms and pulled his sister into his arms from behind, nodded her nose and said, "Of course I will save you."

"Then if my mother and I fall into the water at the same time, who do you save first?" Yu Xiang leaned closer and stared into his eyes.

"Naturally, I'll save you." Yu Pinyan replied quickly, with a joyful light in his eyes. He loves Xiang'er very much who makes no secret of his possessiveness.

"Then what if I and..." Realizing that she is not suitable for comparison with her ancestors, she made it clear that she was embarrassing her brother, she omitted the unfinished words, hugged her brother's thin waist and smiled contentedly.

Yu Pinyan pressed her hard into his arms, sighing silently.
