Chapter 374: The enemy is the one who knows you best

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

You was angry and vomited blood this time caused serious injury and needed rest. Ye Jiayao asked mother Sun to take good care of You and went out first.

Outside, Chunli was still kneeling. He did not dare to get up, nor did he dare to get up. His father had just kicked him and scolded him. The reason why he was punished so lightly was because everyone thought the crisis had been resolved, but now…

Chunli regretted that he still had a little miss and nostalgia for Cuiyan. But now it disappeared at all. The woman seduced him with her gentle and lovely means and sweet words, saying she was not ask for fame and share. As long as she could serve him in this life, she was willing even to be a slave and a menservant … As a result, she came to make trouble when she was least supposed to, and been with the people she shouldn’t be with.

Cuiyan was not desperate. Qiao’s softhearted couldn’t help his pleading. She even gave her a generous settlement fee, asking her to leave Jinling and never appear again. If she could save that money, it would be enough for the rest of her life.

But she chose to go with Liuli and became a sharp weapon against marquis house.

The softhearted ended up with endless troubles.

This time, Chunli was really ashamed. He was greedy and shameless, he could fear, could be angry but rarely ashamed. However, now he was ashamed and wished to dig a hole and bury himself.

So, no matter how Qiao persuaded him and passed on his mother, he could not get up. He knew that if he could not let his father see his determination to correct this time, his fate would be miserable and he would really be abandoned by his father.

The duke Xia Zhuofeng and his second son Chunyu came out after discussion and saw that he was still kneeling in the courtyard, his burning anger finally calmed down. He walked over with a straight face and shouted grumpily, “Why is he still standing here? Get out of my way. ”

In normal times, he had slipped away, but now he didn’t dare to move and was ready to get one foot.

Xia Zhuofeng angrily scolded, “You bastard, do you want to angry me to death?”

Xia Chunyu said, “Eldest brother, you should go back first!”

Chunli looked at his second brother and then at his father and said in a low voice, “I’ll go to kneel in the ancestral hall.”

He said, struggling to get up and limped away.

Xia Zhuofeng said in a muffled voice, “Damn it he is still stubborn with me.”

“Father, eldest brother really knows that he is wrong this time.”Chunyu said. He understood eldest brother’s temper, he would never had been such a performance if he hadn’t been really scared and ashamed.

Xia Zhuofeng also wanted to scold him. He looked up and saw Ye Jiayao standing under the porch and forcefully swallowed what he wanted to said to Chunyu. “You and Jinxuan didn’t eat. Go to eat first. You’re not hungry, but you also need to take care of Jinxuan’s body.”

Chunyu nodded, “I will have the food delivered later.”

Xia Zhuofeng did not object and went into the house with his hand behind his back.

Ye Jiayao strolled up slowly: “What countermeasures did you discuss with dad?”

Xia Chunyu stretched out his hand and took her by the waist as he walked: “First prepare for the worst, no matter whether the matter can be solved in the end or not, how will it be solved. Father wants eldest brother to stay outside for a few years and experience.”

Ye Jiayao was slightly surprised, but thought about it, this was really a good way to leave Jinling for shelter. Even if the incident happened, the emperor would need time to ask for guilt and recall people to confront him. With this buffer, they could handle it calmly and get things done slowly. Moreover, this would enable Chunli to avoid the inevitable political storm. Chunli’s character was actually weak and lacks definite views. It had no benefit at all to stay in Jingling. If he was being used, he would be in trouble.

“How are you doing?” Xia Chunyu asked.

“There should be no problem,” said Ye Jiayao.

Today, she had clearly analyzed all the interests with Zhou. Zhou valued interest most. As long as she understood that she was firmly tied to marquis house, she should not have changed her mind again.

The strongest fortresses tend to disintegrate from the inside, and the decision she and the duke made today was based on this understanding. Only when the internal unrest was resolved first and the fist was clenched in unison with the outside can there be no worries.

Dinner was delivered from the kitchen, but neither of them had much appetite for it. As soon as the chopsticks were put down, Chunfeng came.

He brought two pieces of bad news.

First, when he returned, Sister Fu committed suicide.

Second, Little Ya was given dumb medicine. Fortunately, he went back in time and snatched half a bowl of medicine. Otherwise, Little Ya could not speak any more in her life. Now she was sent for medical treatment and it was unclear to what extent she could recover.

When Chunfeng said that, he was all over with rage, and hatred in his eyes was monstrous.

The hatred was still general, to be exact, killing, he wanted to kill.

Ye Jiayao was shocked. She could understand Chunfeng’s anger, because Liuli was so hateful, but Chunfeng’s hate reached such a level that it was beyond her expectation. After all, it was the woman he had loved, and Liuli hurt her, and also angered You to vomit blood. Chunfeng did not hate to kill anyone.

Was there something she didn’t expect? Was it because of Little Ya?

Last time Little Ya suggested to her that she thought Little Ya was a conscience discovery and did not want to help the Liuli to do evil anymore. Today she only learned that Little Ya was saved by Chunfeng, and that Little Ya’s return to the Liuli was to be the eyes and ears of Chunfeng.

Forget it. We’ll talk about it later. The most urgent delay now was to find Cuiyan. If they couldn’t find Cuiyan, it was useless to say anything.

“Where do you think Liuli will hide people?” Chunyu frowned and asked.

Chunfeng shook his head. He was upset now and couldn’t guess where the Liuli would hide people.

Ye Jiayao held Chunyu’s shoulder in one hand and shook her head at him.

Ye Jiayao asked, “Which hospital is Little Ya in now?”

Chunfeng’s eyes flashed a look of chagrin: “In Qingchun Hall.”

Ye Jiayao mused, “You go and take over the people now! Let her live with me. It is more convenient and safe to ask a doctor.”

Chunfeng palpitated for a moment, suddenly got up and said, “I’ll pick her up.”

Chunfeng hurried in and out.

Chunyu also felt there was something wrong with it, but could not say it.

Ye Jiayao smiled and said, “Can’t you see it? Chunfeng cares about Little Ya very much. If you don’t put Little Ya in place, Chunfeng’s heart won’t settle down.”

Chunyu raised his eyebrows and looked unbelievably at Ye Jiayao.

Ye Jiayao picked her eyebrows like he did and said, “Trust a woman’s intuition, especially mine.”

Chunyu scoffed in his heart and lamented, “Believe your intuition? Do you have a good intuition? When Little Jing liked you, you foolishly regard Little Jing’s love as brother’s love. ”

“Hey, what are you looking at?” Ye Jiayao said crossly.

“No, it’s nothing. I just think you have a bright eye.” Xia Chunyu dared not speak out and asked for punishment.

Ye Jiayao didn’t think about his real idea, and thought, “This was done by Mother Fu and killed Mother Fu, her clue is broken. People will definitely not be in the house. The industry outside is the three hundred fertile fields. The fief is far away in Huaibei, and there are seven loyal officials over there who were in charge. So we could not leave out the possibility that Liuli will place people in the fief.”

“There is also a possibility that she is still in Jinling, but Liuli has few friends in Jinling, it was also a matter of interest to Lin. It is impossible to have a heart-to-heart relationship with Liuli. She let Sister Fu do it; Sister Fu once worked in Ninghe Palace, would she be arranged in the old palace?”

Chunyu’s eyes brightened: “This possibility is even greater.”

Ye Jiayao said, “Well, let’s take Three – pronged approach.”

Chunyu was startled: ” Three – pronged approach? Not two possibilities?”

Ye Jiayao said: “It is not ruled out that Liuli will rent a secluded house outside to hide people. Although this possibility is very small, because such an important card will surely be placed in the most reliable hand, we can’t be careless. As long as there is a little possibility, we can’t let go.”

“So, on the other side of the fief, you go to find a way. To search Jinling City, you will ask Ninth Lord for help. The Ninth Lord’s people are omnipresent, which house is for rent, and his people are convenient to search. As for the old imperial family, I’ll ask Yide princess for help, which is easy to find.”

Chunyu caressed his palm and looked at Ye Jiayao with a look of admiration. He slurped, “Yaoyao, you are a female Zhuge. If no one can be found under these three rules, my name is reversed.”

At the same time, he also laments: Liuli, you are barking up the wrong tree.

Ye Jiayao smiled and said angrily, “Don’t swear in a hurry, and think about it again. Is there any other possibility, otherwise, your surname will be reversed, and my son will not be reversed in the future? I don’t know what Xia characters are reversed.”

Xia Chunyu laughed: “Don’t worry, there is no such possibility. You have thoroughly analyzed the psychology of Liuli. She doesn’t believe in people in the government and has no friends. Even if the center of the Seventh Lord’s staff is transferred to her, Liuli can’t trust them after all, so what Liuli can believe is the old man who served in queen’s mother’s palace and is very fond of Liuli. I bet that Cuiyan must be in the second possibility you said.”

“How is the saying going? The person who knows you best is often not your relatives, not your friends, but the enemy; you are the enemy to Liuli, an enemy who knows her very well.

Ye Jiayao was speechless at the moment. Indeed, when she pondered the Liuli, she fully analyzed the character and way of doing things of Liuli. What did Liuli have and who was the person most trusted by Liuli? Holding such a card, where would Liuli hide the card?

She didn’t know that she knew Liuli so well.

She hoped her guess was right. If she find Cuiyan early, she can solve the crisis early.

Recommending an old book ” Ancient Trial Marriage” that has just landed in Tencent is also very good – looking.
