The Duke of Rongguo Mansion, at dawn.

Lin Chenyao stood under the Jingyang Xuan corridor, and the morning dew slid across the green leaves and dripped into the soil.

"Marty!" Gui Ye hurried in from outside.

Lin Chenyao turned around and his voice was low, "How is it?"

"I have checked Miss Chu Wu before. Apart from being good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, she has never learned riding skills. Not to mention light skills, she can only play nine-legged whip and three-legged cat kung fu. She can deal with ordinary people, but when she meets a master, she can only get beaten. Moreover, she has a bad temper, is prone to impulsiveness, and has a special taste, which is very different from Miss Chu Wu today."

In fact, he had checked these information before, and he didn't know that after the Marquis came back last night, he asked him to check it again overnight, but that's all.

Lin Chenyao was silent and remembered what Chu Xinyu said when he left.

——Whether you believe it or not, after I woke up from assassination two years ago, in addition to the memory of Chu Xinyu, there was also the memory of another person. But I knew very well that my body was Chu Xinyu, but my soul was not.

The body is Chu Xinyu, but the soul is not? What does she mean?

She knows Xuanming Palm and Red Eagle Fist. He has only taught Fu Yinghua these two martial arts. She has too many things she is familiar with, and she is even more familiar with Fu Yinghua when she grows up.

Gui Ye didn't know what he was thinking, thinking that he was investigating Chu Xinyu because of what happened in Zhongyi's mansion yesterday, so he said, "Marty, Miss Chu's transformation is understandable. Her stepmother wants to die. If she is not cruel in the matter yesterday, she will be burned to the fire."

Lin Chenyao had heard Chen Guang talk about this matter. It was taken up by Yuan and that aunt. Chu Xinyu just retaliated against her and did not do too much, let alone saved their lives.

"It is understandable that a person's personality changes when he encounters difficulties, but if he changes everything else, it will make people wonder."

"What do the others mean?" Gui Ye asked.

Lin Chenyao pondered for a moment and said, "Miss Chu Wu understands the martial arts and acupoint-pointing techniques of my master. She can draw. When she was a child, she saw the kind of charcoal paintings drawn by Fu Yinghua, but when she grew up, Fu Yinghua didn't understand. What kind of phenomenon do you think is this?"

"She learned secretly?" Gui Ye thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "No, where did she go to learn secretly? The Marquis has been in the military camp for the past two years. She is in Puling Temple, so it is impossible for her to learn secretly. Moreover, the Marquis's brothers have not been in the Central Plains in the past few years."

Lin Chenyao suddenly changed the topic, "Is there any news on the glimpse?"

Gui Ye shook his head, "Not so fast."

The Marquis’ deadline is seven days, and the glimpse of information is probably not available in the evening or tomorrow.

Lin Chenyao was silent and said for a while: "I will go to Longhua Temple, but I won't go to the palace."

Originally, he went to court today, but because Chu Xinyu said what he said when he left last night, he couldn't sleep all night, and Gui Ye had to find out Chu Xinyu's details no matter how late he was. In fact, he knew that he couldn't find anything after checking it.

Gui Ye said: "The emperor will send someone to investigate the collapse of the Hongzhou River embankment. If you are not here, I am afraid it will..."

Lin Chenyao interrupted him and said, "The prince will handle this matter. If he can't even handle this matter, what skills do he have to sit firmly?"

The emperor asked him to search for "Mid-Autumn Night" with all his might, allowing him to stay away from court for the time being. The day before yesterday, because the embankment of Hongzhou River collapsed, the emergency document was delivered to the emperor at a speed of 800 miles. The emperor attached great importance to this matter. Yesterday he was summoned to the palace to discuss and decided to send someone to investigate the cause of the collapse. On the other side, the treasury had no extra silver to allocate to disaster relief. Today, the court was probably discussing who to send to investigate and how to prepare materials.

He had already written a memorial last night and gave it to the emperor. It was the same as having him or not. It mainly depends on how the emperor decides.

Lin Chenyao ordered Gui Ye to do something, and then went to Longhua Temple. Master Hongyi was proficient in metaphysics and the five elements and gossips. Maybe he would give him an answer if he asked him.

...

Since Chu Xue was still in a coma, the doctor said that she could not be moved for the time being. She was originally scheduled to move out yesterday, so she had to postpone it. However, Chu Xinyu's plan to move into the embroidery building today has not changed.

Her stuff was not very good, and she finished it in one morning.

The embroidery building has three floors. The first floor is a living room and two warm rooms. Her bedroom, study and bathroom are both located on the second floor. The third floor is temporarily built as a warehouse, studio and piano room. A tourist room is also specially set up, which is similar to the living room. However, she puts a hanging chair and a beauty couch here, so that she can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the mansion during the day and watch the stars at night.

Everything on the second floor was replaced with the water-blue window screen she liked. Because it was summer, she used cool colors for the decorative veil and curtains, which looked very elegant.

The maid and the old lady Shi Cook both live in the wing room next to the pavilion. Because there are many rooms, Lan Yiziling and Zhubo have independent rooms, so they are very happy.

The second wife specifically allowed her to set up a kitchen in the attic. At noon, she asked the cook to make a rich lunch to comfort the servants who moved for her. Chu Jiapeng and Chu Jiayu both came to help, and even the second girl who had not left the house recently came.

"Fifth sister, after your attic is repaired, it is different from before." Chu Jiayi walked around the attic and said enviously: "It looks elegant and noble. There is also the stepping bed in the bedroom, which is golden nanmu ebony, right?"

Chu Xinyu smiled and said, "I didn't expect that my second sister is so knowledgeable about wood. Yes, it is golden nanmu ebony, I found it in the warehouse."

She found it in the warehouse in the pavilion. The second aunt said that it was prepared by Mei for her daughter. However, because of the bed that Chu Xinyu used, Chu Jiaqi put it back in the warehouse. At that time, Chu Jiayun wanted it, but I don’t know who said that it was unlucky to sleep on the bed that had been slept with, so she didn’t want it. Chu Jiaqi just wanted to step on her and didn’t bother using the things she used, so this step-breaking bed was always idle in the warehouse.

"Fifth Sister, when will you invite friends to come and play?" Chu Jiayu asked while sitting on the hanging chair on the balcony.

"I haven't posted a post yet. Look at which post looks good. After choosing it, I'll send it down." Chu Xinyu said, asking Zhu Bo to take out the posts she designed. There are three of them, all of which were made by her personally.

They unanimously chose a heart-shaped post. This post was very special and exquisite. It was different from their usual posts. It was a little more angry and made people couldn't help but like it at first glance.

Chu Xinyu wrote his name and sent it out for someone.

After lunch in the pavilion, Chu Xinyu took them to the sightseeing room on the third floor and took out the osmanthus cake, snowflake crisps, and fruits that the chef made last night.

"Girl, Mama Zhao wants to see you." Danqing ran up the corridor.

Before Chu Xinyu could say anything, Zi Ling, who was greeting Zhu Bo, angrily said, "Why is she so embarrassed to see the girl?"

The last rumor happened when the girl happened. It turned out that Zhao's mother was arranged by the eldest lady by the girl. Because she had been nice to her before, the girl gave her a chance and did not punish her. But she didn't know how to be grateful, so she chose to betray the girl again, secretly stuffed the third aunt's sachet under the table, and sprinkled flammable powder into the girl's clothes. If the girl hadn't been prepared for her, she would have been afraid that the girl would now be lying on the bed like the third aunt and dying.

"Girl, she wants to tell you something."

Chu Xinyu frowned slightly and replied coldly: "No see."

She refused without hesitation. If she hadn't been nice to Chu Xinyu when she was a child, she wouldn't have just let her leave the Hou's Mansion.

"Okay, I'll go down and tell her." Danqing said, and ran downstairs.

Chu Jiayi and Chu Jiapeng both knew that what happened yesterday was that the eldest uncle and third aunt wanted to frame Chu Xinyu, but they didn't know why, but in the end they got angry.

So I thought that Xiaozhuyuan must have an insider, otherwise the eldest uncle would not have brought outsiders to watch so blatantly, but this insider did not expect it to be Zhao's mother. But after Chu Xinyu was sent to Puling Temple, all the maids and mothers who served her were dismissed, and the only ones sold were left, leaving only Zhao's mother.

In the past two years, Zhao's mother has not been a master of the eldest uncle like Qin's mother, but she has not been excluded because she has served Chu Xinyu. It turns out that she has long been the eldest uncle's family.

Therefore, Chu Jiayi and others felt that Chu Xinyu was so kind to expel Zhao's mother from the Marquis's mansion. If they were them, they would definitely beat her hard and throw her out and never hire her.

After a while, Danqing ran up again, "Girl, the fourth, the sixth and the eighth girls come to congratulate."

"The fourth sister is here too?" Chu Jiayu said: "I invited her over in the morning and she wouldn't come. Now that we have done everything, she has come."

"It's definitely not good for them to come here."

Among the sisters, Chu Jiayi and Chu Jiapeng are the quietest, but compared to the latter's aloofness and indifference, the former is quieter and more down-to-earth. Although she doesn't like to talk, she likes to observe people and knows that the fourth sister and the fifth sister are not in the same way. Now the fifth sister has changed her temperament, but the fourth sister has also changed, but the country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change. She always has a skeptical attitude towards the fourth sister taking the initiative to give up the pavilion.

Chu Jiapeng knew that the third floor was used by Chu Xinyu to make the warehouse. There were many things in the warehouse that had not been sorted out yet. Too many people went to the third floor and it was not good, so he suggested: "Let's go down."

Chu Xinyu had no intention of letting them come up, so he nodded in agreement.

The four of them went downstairs together.

Seeing them coming down, Chu Jiaqiyang smiled and said, "My fifth sister is much more tasteful than before. If I weren't sure this was the Pai Yu Tower, I would have thought that I had walked into the boudoir of a princess."

Chu Jiayu smiled and said, "Sister Four, which princess's boudoir have you been to?"

Chu Jiaqi: "..."

She had no honor to visit the princess's boudoir. She said this just to provoke other sisters' jealousy towards Chu Xinyu, especially Chu Jiating's sisters, who are the daughters of the second wife, but the decoration of the room is far less than that of Chu Xinyu. As long as they arouse their jealousy towards Chu Xinyu, she can watch the fire from the other side and let them fight.

Chu Jiayu asked her this, undoubtedly slapped her in the face, but she could not refute it like before, so she could only not speak out.

Chu Jiating mocked, "The fifth sister is so filial. My mother is like this, but she is in the mood to move." Because of her jealousy, Yuan taught her to know how to tolerate and restrain her emotions and forget the words with sourness, and she couldn't help but blurt out.

She saw that after the renovation of the Tayu Tower, she looked exquisite and elegant, and more classy than before, and she was extremely jealous. All of this was originally hers, and she was the serious daughter of the Hou Mansion!

Chu Xinyu said, "We don't think about this. If you want to blame the Taoist priest, you will blame him. He said that my small courtyard has evil spirits. How dare I continue now? What if the evil spirits are on my body, like my mother or my third aunt, what should I do?"

After saying that, she patted her chest and looked scared.

Chu Jiayi continued: "It is a wise choice for the fifth sister to do this, not to mention that my grandmother agreed. I believe that the sixth sister and the eighth sister don't want to see the fifth sister like the eldest uncle and the third aunt, right?"

Chu Jiating and Chu Jiayu, "..."

He said that, but he was unwilling to give up and shook his head, so he admitted that he was vicious inside. Both sisters knew that it was Chu Xinyu's counter-espionage plan for his mother and third aunt to be burned.

They were betrayed by Xuanxuzi. The uncle sent people to search the entire Jinjing city and could not find him. They must have escaped long ago. The traces of Xiaozhuyuan were also cleaned up, and there was no evidence left, so they were mute and could not say anything about their suffering.

Chu Jiating gritted her teeth and said, "Even so, shouldn't the fifth sister wait for her mother to move? If it spreads, how do others think of our Marquis' Mansion?"

Chu Xinyu said, "I am timid, but I dare not live in the evil Xiaozhuyuan. Sister Six, you are brave, so why not exchange it with you. If you and Sister Eight, I will live in Luobiyuan, how about it?"

"I won't go." Chu Jiayun said.

Chu Xinyu sneered, "So, you don't dare to live, why do you want me to continue living? What's more, the pavilion was originally mine, and I just moved back to my boudoir."

When they argued with Chu Xinyu, no one had ever argued with her. Chu Jiating and the other two were bored, so they just walked around and left.
