A hint of murderous intent flashed in Lin Yunzhi's eyes.
Ye Junfei continued, "It is said that among the entire Ghost Valley sect, only the youngest disciple, Ning Yun, escaped by going up the mountain to gather herbs that day."
"Then the late emperor was struck dead by lightning during a sacrificial ceremony to pray for blessings, which became the biggest secret of the royal family."
"When the Emperor ascended the throne, he was filled with fear and anxiety, and searched everywhere for Ning Yun's whereabouts, but he could not be found again."
"When Zhou Chenyang sent troops to attack the Lin family last time, I discovered that the Lin family's layout secretly conformed to the Bagua Qiankun Formation."
"Then I saw a tortoise shell in my father's room, and I boldly made a wild guess."
"Please forgive me if I have guessed wrong, Father!"
Lin Yunzhi smiled and looked at Ye Junfei, saying, "You're quite good at guessing! What do you want?"
Ye Junfei replied, "I don't want anything. I just want to tell Father that I have the ability to take care of Xiuyan."
"I don't believe those rumors circulating in the streets, and I share the emperor's suspicions."
"Everyone has their own troubles, so no one should look down on anyone else. If you push someone too far, the worst that can happen is that you'll just cause a major disaster."
Lin Yunzhi was taken aback when he heard this, and then he laughed.
He looked at Ye Junfei and said, "You're too cunning, kid. I don't really like you."
Ye Junfei sighed: "If Xiuyan and I have a daughter in the future, and after raising her with great difficulty, she is taken away by another man, I will not like that man."
Lin Yunzhi glanced at him sideways and said, "You're smart to know what's good for you."
Ye Junfei asked him, "I've always had a question. With Father's abilities, it wouldn't be difficult for him to tell me my identity. Why didn't Father investigate me?"
Lin Yunzhi said calmly, "Do you think I haven't consulted the oracle for you? With Yan'er's destiny, you're probably the only one in the world who can protect her."
"This result is enough. Does it matter who you are?"
Ye Junfei paused for a moment, took a step back, and bowed to Lin Yunzhi, saying, "I have learned a lot."
Lin Yunzhi sighed deeply and said, "I only have one daughter, Yan'er. Don't let her down."
Ye Junfei nodded solemnly: "Father, don't worry, I will definitely treat her well."
Lin Yunzhi waved his hand dismissively and said, "Get lost! I don't want to see you right now!"
Ye Junfei smiled, not angry at all. He cupped his hands in greeting and went to wait for Lin Xiuyan outside Qu Shuangyue's house.
If he can find out Lin Yunzhi's true identity, he can naturally find out Qu Shuangyue's true identity as well.
Qu Shuangyue's identity, while not as frightening as Lin Yunzhi's, is still quite surprising.
Perhaps only Lin Xiuyan would feel that they needed her protection.
The maid who was guarding the door went in to announce her arrival, and after a while, Lin Xiuyan reluctantly came out of Qu Shuangyue's room.
Ye Junfei took her hand and said, "My wife, it's late. Let's go back to our room and rest!"
The moonlight was exceptionally beautiful tonight, gently illuminating Ye Junfei's handsome face, making him appear like an immortal descended from heaven.
As night deepened and the mist shrouded his face, his features became more hazy, yet the allure in his eyes and brows was captivating.
Lin Xiuyan simply couldn't stand his appearance; he was far too alluring.
Ye Junfei gently took her hand and asked, "Have you said anything good about me to Mother?"
Lin Xiuyan chuckled: "Given what the young master said to my parents last night, why would I need to speak well of you?"
Ye Junfei asked her, "Do you think I shouldn't have told them those things today, so they wouldn't worry about you?"
Lin Xiuyan sighed: "That was my initial thought, but after thinking about it again, I ended up hitting Princess Anle."
"If Princess Anle can't deal with me, she might target my parents. We need to let them know so they can be on guard."
Ye Junfei took her hand, kissed it, and said, "My wife is so clever!"
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
She glanced at Qiu Tao, who was following behind them; the little girl's head was almost touching the ground!
She glared at Ye Junfei, who chuckled lightly, "A gentleman uses words, not fists."
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
She can no longer formally use the word "speak" today!
In the past, when Ye Junfei came to Lin Xiuyan's residence, he would sneak up through the window.
Today, he took her hand and walked into her room openly; he wasn't quite used to it yet.
After Qiu Tao helped Lin Xiuyan wash up, she immediately went downstairs and refused to stay in the room for even a moment longer.
Ye Junfei praised, "Your maid is quite good. Would you like to take her to the Prince's residence?"
"No need," Lin Xiuyan refused. "A place like the Prince's Mansion is beyond Qiu Tao's capabilities. Going there would just be making her a target, and she'd be bullied by those women in the Prince's Mansion."
Ye Junfei thought her words made sense: "But you'll always need a couple of maids to serve you. How about I pick out a few for you?"
After thinking for a moment, Lin Xiuyan said, "That works too. You can pick someone who can fight and has a calm temperament."
Ye Junfei chuckled lightly: "You're not choosing a maid, you're choosing a helper for a brawl."
Lin Xiuyan chuckled: "Yes, that way we won't suffer losses in a place like the Prince's Mansion."
She was very clear about her own position. In a place like the Prince's Mansion, although the underhanded methods were terrible, there were times when she could overcome any obstacle with sheer force.
If you really encounter danger, good skills can help you to some extent.
Lin Xiuyan asked Ye Junfei, "Could we stay at the Lin residence for a few more days?"
Ye Junfei raised an eyebrow and said, "You'll have to beg me!"
Lin Xiuyan immediately bowed to him and said, "I beg you!"
Ye Junfei: "..."
The way she was begging was so insincere.
He glanced at her sideways, too lazy to pay her any attention, and went straight to bed.
Lin Xiuyan quickly jumped onto the bed and grabbed his arm, saying, "Please, let me stay at home for a few more days!"
Ye Junfei pointed to his lips.
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
What's going on in this scoundrel's head all day long?
Ye Junfei glanced at her and snorted, "If we're not going to kiss, we'll go back to the palace first thing tomorrow morning."
Lin Xiuyan gritted her teeth. This was one of the troubles after getting married. She needed to discuss the trip with him, otherwise it would be difficult to explain to her parents.
Looking at his handsome face, she felt that kissing him wouldn't be a loss for her, so she leaned in.
Before she could even touch his lips, he had already licked them.
The warm, wet, and slippery touch instantly aroused her to the point of ecstasy.
Her face flushed instantly, and she turned to run away.
How could he let her escape? He grabbed her waist and pinned her down.
His scent instantly filled her mouth and nose.
She heard his slightly rapid breathing and sensed his domineering nature.
His body was pressed tightly against hers; she could feel not only his burning heat but also the texture of his muscles.
You can even feel the changes in his body.
