Sure enough, after hearing Mrs. Xiao's mumbling, Ye Chuyao finally came back quietly.

[That's good. The Ye Mansion's secret guards are all top-notch experts. With them protecting Third Brother, there will be no problem with Third Brother's safety.]

[However, it would be difficult for the third brother to get involved in Miao'antang's business. ]

[No matter what, when I grow up, even if something slips out from my fingers, it will be enough for my third brother to build a foundation.]

"Yes, yes, yes, if Yaoyao has any good things in the future, don't hide them."

"Our Ye Mansion also needs to be strong, otherwise how can we deal with Father Gu and that dog emperor?"

Mrs. Xiao said to herself.

........

In Ye Hongtu's study, he and Ye Yunping discussed for a long time.

Finally a detailed plan was agreed upon.

Watching Ye Yunping leave happily, Ye Hongtu stood quietly at the door with his hands behind his back, wondering what he was thinking about.

"Haha, Mr. Gu, let the third brother compete with you first."

"I want to see who will laugh last in this contest."

.......

Soon, a medicine shop called Baicaoge opened in the central area of ​​Yanjing City.

In just three days, Baicao Pavilion opened branches in the four districts of the east, south, west and north of Yanjing City.

In addition to selling some common herbal medicines, the most popular product of this Baicao Pavilion is a medicine for treating external injuries called "Yushang 꼍".

Ye Yunping was very smart. He not only made the powder into the appearance of medicine for easy consumption.

Moreover, some spices are added to suppress the bitterness, so that the medicine tastes very good without affecting its efficacy.

Even the price is 20% cheaper than Miao'antang's "Rejuvenating Powder".

This led to the fact that once "Yushang 꼍" was launched on the market, it was sought after by countless people.

........

Prime Minister’s Mansion!

With a "bang", the teacup in Gu Changhe's hand was smashed to pieces.

Just now, my subordinates reported that a medicine shop called Baicao Pavilion appeared in Yanjing City, which almost made Miao'antang unable to raise its head.

Moreover, the company developed very quickly, opening four branches in less than three days, and each of them was doing very well.

The most important thing is that in addition to developing in Yanjing City, the other party seems to have the intention of opening stores in other cities.

If this is the case, then Baicao Pavilion will definitely be the biggest competitor for the future development of Miao'an Hall.

"Have you found out who is the mastermind behind Miao'an Hall?"

Gu Changhe lowered his eyes and asked in a cold voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared in the room.

The figure knelt on one knee and said respectfully, "I found out. It's the Third Duke of the National Defense General's Office—Ye Yunping!"

"Hmm? 놆 him?"

Gu Changhe's eyes were full of surprise.

He never thought that the third son of the Ye family, who looked a little frivolous and was regarded as the most useless by the Ye family, was actually the master behind Baicao Pavilion.

"Baicao Pavilion, are you recovering from your injuries?"

“Everything seems so coincidental!”

"Why at this time? Myoandang has just opened and Baicao Pavilion has appeared?"

In recent days, he has made various arrangements against the Ye family and the Xiao family, no matter how he plans.

The Ye family seemed to be blessed by gods and were able to escape danger without even realizing it.

Especially when he was poisoned a few days ago, even with the help of the powerful intelligence capabilities of the Qingyi Sect, he still didn't find out who was behind the sale of the black flower.

Being plotted against, and not knowing who the murderer is, this feeling of frustration can often only be experienced by the person who has been plotted against.

When did Gu Changhe experience this feeling?

"With Ye Yunping's ability, if no one helps him, he won't be able to have this miraculous medicine for healing."

"Maybe, if we find out who is behind him, we can find answers to many questions."

Gu Changhe has concluded that there must be an expert helping Ye Yunping behind the scenes.

"Send someone to keep a close eye on Ye Yunping at all times."

"I want to see who is behind him."

Gu Changhe said in a cold voice.

"Yes, sir!"

........

Time flies, and three days later, it is Ye Chuyao's full moon day.

In the Ye Mansion's martial arts arena, two figures crossed each other.

There was a dull sound when fists and palms collided.

"Bang", another fierce collision, one of the figures remained motionless like a mountain.

The other figure retreated wildly, and after retreating several meters, he was able to stabilize his body.

"Father, please stop fighting me. You are much stronger than me."

"When we fight, it's just me getting beaten up."

Ye Yunwu rubbed his fists, looking hopeless.

"Humph, you useless brat. You've only fought a few rounds and you're already admitting defeat?"

"Come again!"

Ye Hongtu bumped his fists together and said sternly.

"Mom, help!"

Ye Yunwu looked at Madam Xiao who was watching the fight at a stone table in the distance and said with a bitter face.

It's true that he is arrogant and aggressive, but he is not stupid enough to fight to the death with someone stronger than him.

"Okay, Master, you've been sparring for an hour."

"If you keep going like this, Yun Wu won't be able to withstand it even if he has a body made of iron."

[Hehe, I'm so pitiful. I was abused so badly by my daddy. 】

[Now I’m asking my mom for help. How embarrassing!]

[He doesn't act like this when facing those martial artists who are not as good as him.]

Ye Chuyao's few words made Ye Yunwu blush.

This little sister is too disrespectful to him. Doesn't she know not to hit someone in the face or to scold someone without exposing their shortcomings?

With Madam Xiao pleading for mercy, Ye Hongtu snorted coldly, glared at Ye Yunwu fiercely, and walked straight towards the stone table.

He came closer, picked up the teapot on the table, poured himself a cup and drank it all in one gulp.

"You're still a long way from here, you need to practice harder."

"I think you know that even in Yanjing City, there are still many younger people who are stronger than you."

The person Ye Hongtu was talking about naturally didn't care about the long river.

Compared with Gu Changhe, Ye Yunwu is far behind in both martial arts talent and intelligence and strategy.

If he had not gone with the flow this time and dealt Gu Changhe a severe blow, Gu Changhe would have successfully broken through to the Half-Step Grandmaster realm.

"Father's teachings, I remember them."

Ye Yunwu said in a serious tone.

He was not perfunctory. The more he understood Gu Changhe, the more he could sense his fear.

To put it bluntly, if they hadn't listened to Ye Chuyao's heart and fought against Gu Changhe, they wouldn't even know how they died.

.......

"In three days it will be Yaoyao's full moon banquet."

"I wonder if Yun Ge can come back in time?"

Mrs. Xiao had a look of worry on her face.

"I received Yun Ge's letter seven days ago. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be back in the next two days."

Ye Hongtu reached out and pinched Ye Chuyao's fair and tender little face, and said with a smile.

[Is 꺶 coming back? 】

[The book describes Brother 꺶 as extremely handsome, talented in both civil and military affairs. His popularity in Yanjing City far surpassed that of Gu Changhe.]

[To be honest, Brother 꺶 and Gu Changhe are quite similar in some aspects. 】

[It's a pity that Brother 꺶 is an upright person who disdains those ghostly techniques, but Gu Changhe will do anything to achieve his goal. ]

[A man like 꺶 is destined to be no match for someone like Gu Changhe. 】

[Otherwise, he wouldn't have fallen into Gu Changhe's ambush and ended up being shot to death by thousands of arrows. ]
