Chapter 178 The Brave Overcome Life and Death
If Yun Zhuan hadn't mediated between the two of them, the dinner would have been at freezing point.
After finally finishing the meal, Yun Ju'an saw Duhuo off, but Duhuo refused to remove his hand and kept staring at his young lady:
"Miss, if it really doesn't work, just leave..."
Yun Ju'an frowned: "What are you talking about?"
She had suffered injuries with great difficulty just for that little bit of information. If she withdrew now, it would be fine if she didn't provoke Guan Quan's revenge, but it would be really hard to waste all her efforts.
Duhuo seemed to realize something and was speechless for a moment:
"I'm sorry...Miss...I was worried about you too..."
Yun Zhuan understood, but still kept a serious face:
"In that case, you can just wait for me in the silk shop!"
Hearing the rustling sound of the trees behind them, Yun Zhuan immediately hugged Duhuo, as if the two sisters were inseparable.
After a long while, Guan Quan finally coughed: "Ahem..."
"Ai, it's getting dark now, you should let your sister go home and rest early..."
Yun Zhuan hugged him for a long time, buried his head in Duhuo's neck and talked, and did not let go for a long time.
Then he walked into the Guan Mansion.
Duhuo pursed his lips, his voice still cold:
"Then I'll ask the trustee to take good care of my sister."
Guan Quan had a smug smile on his face and pulled Yun Zhuan to his side:
"Don't worry, Sister Yun. Your sister will gain weight living with me!"
Guan Quan frowned again when he thought about this. Yun Yi was going out to accompany that woman in the next two days. Fortunately, she took the initiative to offer to bring someone with her, otherwise, she really didn't know what to do!
If I send someone, they say it's for surveillance. If I don't send anyone, I won't be able to sleep or eat well.
This Yunyi is really considerate.
Thinking about this, Guan Quan pinched Yun Zhuan's face and asked, "Do you like the orchid in the flower house?"
"Yeah!" Yun Yu'an seemed to remember something, and his face turned red all of a sudden, "But you'd better not go, otherwise you'll fall to the ground with someone again!"
Guan Quan laughed out loud: "If you like it, it doesn't matter if you go to see it every day!"
If it can reduce her going out, this would be a good idea!
Yun Zhuan's joy was visibly evident: "Really?"
"Really!" Guan Quan said with a smile.
But the smile didn't reach his eyes.
After sending Yun Zhuan back, Guan Quan went straight to the study, closed the door, and put on his expressionless face again.
There was a painting on her desk, which depicted Yun Yu'an.
Guan Quan sat down steadily and looked at the painting carefully.
How could she not know about a beautiful woman who appeared out of nowhere?
Now a sister suddenly appears out of nowhere.
This was enough to make the suspicious girl suspicious, but Yun Yi's behavior was so natural, even blushing was her favorite expression, how could she dare to doubt whether this beautiful dream was real?
Guan Quan let out a breath. She knew that Quezhou had a special terrain and was a fortress, so it was naturally seen as a thorn in the eyes of many people.
But she still wanted to give it a try, what if Yun Yi was sincere?
As he spoke, Guan Quan pulled out a portrait with a very plain face.
The person painted on it is Yun Ju'an in disguise.
For some reason, these two portraits gave Guan Quan a feeling that made her dare not guess.
"They look so different..." Guan Quan frowned, wondering about the relationship between the two.
After a long time, Guan Quan finally came up with a bold guess.
Maybe these two are the same person?
But there is no such coincidence in the world.
Guan Quan overturned his guess and went to the brothel.
There was only a small candle on the first floor of the flower shop. For some reason, the gardener did not leave, but was pulling out weeds conscientiously.
After a long while, the gardener turned around and said:
"Master, that little girl is not a simple person."
"Ah Zhou, why do you say that?" Guan Quan didn't want to hear it, but Ah Zhou had been by her side for many years, accompanying her step by step to the position of governor of Quezhou, almost to the point of being able to cover the sky with one hand, "I want to hear your reasons."
Ah Zhou shook his head:
"There is no reason, sir. That little girl doesn't look like an ordinary person."
"If you insist on doing this, I'm afraid you'll suffer a great loss!"
Guan Quan has never believed in superstitious talk about fortune-telling, but there is a corner of his heart that keeps screaming like crazy, so he might as well believe it.
She had tested Yun Ju'an many times before, but was this not enough to prove that Yun Ju'an was a real person who came to Guan's mansion by accident?
She even went to great lengths to check her household registration, and found out that there was indeed a Yun family doing business in the north. There were only two girls in the family, and one of them had indeed been hunted by thieves.
Isn't this just right?
Guan Quan walked out in a daze, not even noticing that it was drizzling outside.
The gardener shook his head:
"Master, it is precisely this Miss Yun who is most likely to make mistakes when everything is flawless!"
After following Guan Quan for so many years, the gardener also understood his master's character. He never admits defeat and all those things about eating, drinking, having fun and being lustful were illusions.
In fact, Guan Quan is a man with a plan in mind, otherwise he would not have said one thing and done another behind Bei Chu's back.
Who would have known that Bei Chu would actually treat the master's mother like that? No wonder the master reacted excessively after learning the truth after being deceived for so long.
Why did the master want to know about his mother's condition as soon as the woman arrived?
The gardener raised his knife and a pigeon fell from the tree.
There is a red streak around the neck, indicating that it is flying towards Northern Chu.
Is there someone inside the mansion who is a traitor?
She opened the carrier pigeon, but there was not a single word written inside. Turning around, she discovered that countless birds were flying by. Only then did she realize that she seemed to have been tricked by someone!
As the night deepened, the entire Quezhou seemed shrouded in silence.
Duhuo had already followed Yun Zhuan's instructions and disguised part of his troops as civilians, waiting to sneak into Quezhou in broad daylight and then cooperate with Mei Feng outside.
It would be best to take down Quezhou in one fell swoop.
The longer it delays, the greater the possibility that the master will encounter danger. Duhuo has already lost Lu'e and must not lose his master again.
Yun Zhuan had a vague feeling that Guan Quan had already guessed something, but she didn't care that maybe she wanted to lure out the troops behind her.
However, how could Yun Ju'an give her this opportunity?
In a game between two parties, the brave one wins when they meet on a narrow road!
Yun Zhuan, a girl born with a talent for heaven, will not lose to anyone!
I heard the sound of birds flapping their wings outside before dawn, and my heart gradually calmed down.
Tomorrow, she has to go to the flower shop again.
Everything in the flower building seems complicated.
Guan Quan...
gardener……
Quezhou...
No room for error!
