Chapter 543 Injured
Zhuge Congfeng left.
Puyang Qiubai walked towards Qin Huiyin and said, "Didn't you say you would test your lessons? Let's do it today. Let me see how you've practiced."
Qin Huiyin hummed.
She could be indifferent to Zhuge Congfeng, but when facing Puyang Qiubai, she could never bear to say those unpleasant words to him.
"Even the teacher is holding a grudge against me and doesn't want to pay attention to me anymore?" Puyang Qiubai touched her hair.
"No, I don't hate you."
"Then let's go. I won't let anyone hurt you." Puyang Qiubai said.
Qin Huiyin followed Puyang Qiubai to the study.
Puyang Qiubai's attendants brought out a guqin for her. Although she didn't know the value of the instrument, she knew it was definitely an ordinary one just by looking at the workmanship on it.
She played the piece that Puyang Qiubai had taught her. Seeing him listening at his desk with encouragement in his eyes, she relaxed and started playing seriously.
On the other side, in the only attic deep in the valley, Zhuge Congfeng was kneeling there, with four elderly men standing in front of him.
"Congfeng, you have always been more rational than the lord. How could you make such a mistake this time? That woman's identity is so special, we should make good use of it. If we use it properly, our great cause will be accomplished."
"If our great cause requires forcing a little girl to do something, even if it succeeds, it will not be justified and will become a laughing stock in the world."
"I think they are right. You were seduced by that little girl and started to act stupidly."
"Who told them?" Zhuge Congfeng had felt strange since the beginning. Not many people knew Qin Huiyin's origins, so who would come to them to tell them the news?
Although he did want to use Qin Huiyin at the beginning, he regretted it when he really faced her.
On the one hand, he was reluctant to let her go, but on the other hand, he couldn't bear to use her, so he was caught in this dilemma.
"Don't worry about who said it. You are too emotional this time. I will give you half a month. Within half a month, you must bring that woman into our camp. Since she is so valuable, why not marry her? Isn't it said that she and the lord have a very good relationship? There are few women in the world who don't love the lord's good looks, so let them get married."
"No. She has a fiancé. Her fiancé is no pushover and is very difficult to deal with." Zhuge Congfeng felt annoyed when he heard this.
"Your third master is good at pharmacology. He knows a hypnotic technique that can change her memory and make her fall in love with the lord as soon as possible."
"If you do this, it will only make the lord angry. You all know the lord's temper. He will not become your puppet and allow you to plot against him and control him like this. If you anger the lord, both sides will be destroyed. Can you afford the consequences?"
The four of them were silent.
The people of the Puyang family have the word "pride" ingrained in their bones and blood. If Puyang Qiubai were really angered, all the plans of these years might really come to naught.
"Masters, we can accomplish our great cause without a woman."
"Don't bluff us. That woman is too useful. She can save us ten years of hard work."
"So many men need a woman to hold them up, don't you think it's shameful?"
"It wouldn't be shameful if she became the mistress of the Wuxiang League."
After all, what they want to express is only one meaning: by holding on to this God of Wealth, you can work ten years less.
"If you insist on doing this, you must ask the Lord if he agrees. If the Lord disagrees, all your plans will be in vain."
After Zhuge Congfeng left, several old men gathered together to discuss.
"We can't let the lord do what he wants in this matter. We have to give it a push."
"My lord is very special to this girl. Even if he forces them to be a couple, he will not treat her badly given his character. It is her blessing that she can marry such an outstanding man as my lord. What is there to complain about? As a woman, once she is married, she will accept her fate."
Zhuge Congfeng returned to the manor and heard the sound of the zither as soon as he entered the door.
There was only one person who had such a refined taste in this village. Although Puyang Qiubai knew all kinds of musical instruments, he never played them in Wuxiang Valley. The same was true for him and Congyun. They both had their own talents, and here they only had great achievements in their minds, not those romantic things.
He stood at the door, watching Qin Huiyin playing.
Puyang Qiubai stood by her side, giving her some pointers on fingering from time to time. After his guidance, her playing improved a lot.
"My lord..." A subordinate ran in from outside.
Zhuge Congfeng stopped him and asked, "What happened?"
The man's body was covered in blood.
The subordinate said, "Miss Qianyu took us out to gather information and found the court's minions. They are trying to capture our people. Miss Qianyu is injured, and the brothers are on their way to send her back. I will come back to report the news first. From Master Feng, Miss Qianyu needs someone to rescue her."
"Congfeng, take some people over there and make sure to bring them back." Puyang Qiubai had already heard what his men said.
"Okay." Zhuge Congfeng nodded and ran outside.
Puyang Qiubai asked, "What kind of clothes are those lackeys of the imperial court wearing? Who do they belong to?"
"Jinyiwei."
Qin Huiyin's heart skipped a beat.
The thing she worried about most happened.
If it was the Jinyiwei, it was very likely that Song Ruize brought people to the door.
But, if he had the intention to kill right away, Brother Ruize would be so angry!
"Master, why don't you send me out?" Qin Huiyin said, "If it's the Jinyiwei, it's possible that my fiancé has come looking for me."
"Let's wait for Qianyu to come back before discussing it, okay?" Puyang Qiubai said, "If it is really Lord Song who comes to my house, I will definitely let you out."
"good."
Qin Huiyin and Puyang Qiubai were waiting for news in the study, and they didn't have to wait long, as Zhuge Congfeng quickly brought Ouyang Qianyu back.
"Qianyu was seriously injured." Zhuge Congfeng said, "When I arrived, Qianyu had already led people through the secret passage, so I didn't have the opportunity to deal with those who were chasing Qianyu, and I couldn't find out what happened. I can only wait for Qianyu to wake up and ask her to confirm it."
"Is Qianyu okay?" Qin Huiyin asked, "How is the doctor here?"
"We have no choice but to ask Third Master to take action." Puyang Qiubai said, and then said to Qin Huiyin, "You step aside for now."
Qin Huiyin nodded.
Maner took Qin Huiyin away.
When she returned to her residence, Qin Huiyin asked what kind of people the four masters were.
"Those four masters were the master's retainers. When the Puyang family was still around, they were the Puyang family's advisers. Later, the family suffered a misfortune, and the master was kidnapped by bad guys. The four masters searched for the master for seven or eight years, and finally found the master and rescued him."
