Mo Yunfei realized that something was wrong and hurried back to the kitchen of Luyuan Qionglou.
I saw a man in black lying at the kitchen door, and the door was already open.
Mo Yunfei secretly cried out in alarm, touched the kitchen knife at his waist and ran straight to the ice cellar. Fortunately, the rare ingredients were all there.
"Hero Mo."
Mo Yunfei turned sideways alertly, "Who is it? Come out quickly, my kitchen knife has no eyes."
Soon, the Si family's secret sentry appeared from the dark.
Seeing that he didn't cover his face, Mo Yunfei narrowed his eyes and asked, "Did you do that to the people outside?"
Si family's secret sentry Ling Yi said: "Hero Mo, these two people are here to poison us tonight."
Mo Yunfei's face darkened. "Who are you? If you can't explain yourself, don't even think about leaving here."
"I am your uncle's secret guard..."
Mo Yunfei's brows were tightly knitted together, his eyes filled with hostility. It seemed that the people who had robbed and killed Wei Xiao on the road last time were also the work of the second branch.
The second wife actually didn't want the old man to wake up, how ridiculous! The old man was his savior, so he didn't have to live on the edge of life!
"Oh no, there's a mole from the second house in the other courtyard!"
Mo Yunfei picked up a kitchen knife and rushed to Xishui County overnight to protect Lu Shiyuan.
Ling Yi: "Hero Mo, don't worry. The son-in-law has a plan in advance. We have arranged for personnel to closely monitor the other branches of the Lu family. Similar incidents will happen again and again in other county restaurants. The Lu family's other businesses will also be in trouble."
Isn't this going to kill his eldest daughter?!
"Master Mo, the other courtyard has received the news. We may not have enough manpower. Please contact your friends in the martial arts world scattered throughout Huayang and coordinate with our people to set up defenses in the restaurants in various counties in advance. Rewards will naturally be indispensable."
Mo Yunfei knew that the matter was serious. Luyuan Qionglou was the eldest lady's hard work, and no mistakes could be allowed to happen.
"Okay, I'll make the arrangements. You'll be responsible for dealing with the two men in black."
After Ling Yi left, Mo Yun flew onto the roof and sent a signal toward the northwest...
The end of midnight.
A person wearing a black hooded windbreaker, who looked like a woman, looked around cautiously and then came to the wall of a courtyard in the back kitchen. He bent down and took out the note that was pressed on the brick.
"Don't move!" A sword pressed heavily on his shoulder, "Turn around!"
The man's body shook noticeably a few times, and the note in his hand slipped down.
This day finally came. She sighed and turned around, "Sir, this servant deserves death."
Si Chuyu saw Qiao Yun's face clearly and said coldly, "It's you. Why are you doing this? Aren't we treating you well?"
Qiao Yun fell to her knees with a thud. "Master, I deserve death and do not ask for forgiveness, but I was forced to do this. My family is in the hands of the Second Madam. If I don't do it, they will send me a finger every day. Please, Master, save my family. I am willing to testify against the Second Madam and the Fourth Madam. They are the ones who prevented the eldest daughter from getting pregnant and the second daughter from having her brain cured. They forced me to do this..."
"Master, please take a look at what's on the note." Ling Fei picked up the note and handed it to Si Chuyu.
"Hold still."
Si Chuyu sneered, "Take Qiao Yun to the woodshed and keep her under strict watch."
"yes."
Ling Fei followed Si Chuyu back to the study, and Si Chuyu handed the written letter to Ling Fei.
"Leave it to my father. He knows what to do. Also, the people they send to the counties must be kept alive. They should also prepare the evidence they have collected over the years on the corruption of the various family masters."
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
"Wait, Qiao Yun's family, please help find her whereabouts."
After Ling Fei left, Si Chuyu returned to the bedroom, reached out and gently touched Lu Yuan's belly, feeling distressed and anxious.
He has not been in good health these years, and it turns out that someone doesn't want them to have children.
It was probably not an accident that he and Ayuan had a child back then.
The next day.
"Where the hell is that girl Qiao Yun? It's already so late and the calming incense hasn't been prepared yet."
Nanny Sumin went to Qiao Yun's room and found that the room was empty. She cursed a few words and hurriedly took the calming incense powder to mix the incense in the incense burner, and habitually placed the incense burner at the head of the bed.
Nanxiang frowned when she saw this. If she didn't know who the traitor was, then Mammy must be the big traitor. This suspicion is too great!
Seeing that Lu Yao was still sleeping soundly, Nan Xiang moved the incense burner to the window, pretending to add incense and carefully checked it to make sure there was no tampering.
She whispered, "Mammy, Miss Anshenxiang told us not to put it on the bedside, so please don't put it on the bedside again."
Sumin slapped her forehead and said, "It's Mammy who's confused."
Seeing that Qiao Yun was not there, Nan Xiang pretended to scare her, "Mammy, you can't be confused. Second Miss has inhaled too much Anshenxiang and she can't get better. You can't escape responsibility." After that, she turned and left.
Su Min turned her head to look at the sleeping Lu Yao, and was suddenly frightened. Could it be that the second young lady really had inhaled too much tranquilizing incense and her brain was in trouble?
Sumin quickly pushed the incense burner outward again and opened the half-open window.
Si Chuyu placed the medicinal food and soups on the table in order, and sat beside the bed waiting for Lu Yuan to wake up.
Not long after, Lu Yuan opened his eyes and saw Si Chuyu's smiling face, with a dark shadow under his eyes.
"How did I fall asleep?" Lu Yuan quickly pushed himself up from the bed and asked anxiously, "Tell me who's behind this?"
Si Chuyu blew gently on the medicine in the spoon and handed it to Lu Yuan's mouth, "Don't be anxious, dear, drink the medicine first, your health is more important."
Lu Yuan, who was impatient, was helpless against Si Chuyu, who was patient. He took the bowl of medicine and drank it in a few big gulps.
"Okay, now that you're done drinking, tell me."
Si Chuyu said: "It's the Second Aunt and the Fourth Aunt."
Lu Yuan frowned slightly when she heard this. She had the impression that her Second and Fourth Aunts treated her and her sister very well. "Did they make a mistake?"
"No doubt about it. I have arranged for Qiao Yun to be locked up in the woodshed. You can interrogate her later."
Lu Yuan's eyebrows relaxed, her face showing no emotion. After a long silence, she said, "What did they ask Qiao Yun to do this time?"
"Hold still."
"I'm afraid they have other plans." Lu Yuan had a bad feeling. "Sister Yao'er was poisoned and then rescued. They can't just sit there and wait for death."
"Wei Xiao."
A moment later, Wei Xiao entered the room. "Miss, what can I do for you?"
"Go back to Huayang County right away and tell all the shopkeepers to be on high alert and not let anyone take advantage of them."
"yes."
Lu Yuan looked at Si Chuyu and said, "Now that Qiao Yun is under control, the mansion is safe for the time being. After breakfast, you and I should quickly go to the restaurants in the various counties."
Lu Yuan was worried that the two would do something bad to the restaurant. They would most likely tamper with rare ingredients, and if something went wrong, it would be a big trouble.
Si Chuyu looked at Lu Yuan with admiration. His Ayuan was always so smart. "Ayuan, you really guessed it right."
