"Ouyang, you said that Boss has been gone for almost half a month, why isn't she back yet?" The sky gradually darkened. Lian'er stared at the 20 odd children that stood trembling in the courtyard. Then, she tilted her head and asked the pretty boy next to her, Ouyang.
"I don't know." The effeminate and beautiful man had completely become the silent and merciless instructor of the past few days.
"Ouyang, I'll leave this to you. I'll go back and pack up. Who knows, maybe boss will be back in a few days." Lian'er repeated the same sentence every day before heading out of the courtyard.
Ouyang Ziyun turned his head to look at the departing figure. She was clearly only 14 years old, but her strength was actually stronger than his. Ouyang Ziyun really had no face in front of her, so he had remained icy cold.
When the youths in the courtyard saw their callous instructors peeking at their beautiful instructors, they immediately began to jeer. "Yo, Instructor Ouyang peek at Instructor Lian'er …" The voice even carried the child's innocent laughter.
When Ouyang Ziyun heard this, his ears turned red. He turned around and swept his eyes over them with a cold gaze. "It seems like you dislike the plan that the Chief Instructor gave you! It's too easy!" From today onwards, it will be doubled. " Peek? Did he really need it? The reason why he treated her well was because he wanted to take the indenture contract from her. Ouyang Ziyun comforted himself by saying this.
His master had been gone for half a month and was almost back. Was she satisfied? Thinking of that woman, Ouyang Ziyun couldn't help but shudder.
The night was cold, and the weather was cold. In Duke Chu's Lixiang Courtyard, Jun Li sat in the main hall with a dark expression. In the past half month, she had been released from her confinement, but the Duke didn't allow her to take charge of the mansion again. As for the third wife, she was treated as a scapegoat, but her position wasn't shaken at all.
Jun Li felt a sense of frustration that she had never felt before. She wasn't in the mood to deal with Mo Xi's faction, and could only send people to keep an eye on the situation. Of course, she indicated to Chu Mu to go over and fix that little slut, but she didn't know that Chu Mu's words had recently been entangled by nightmares, so how could she have the time to go to Mo Xi Pavilion?
Today, the scout Jun Li had left in the Mo Dawn Pavilion had reported that Chu Moxi hadn't left her courtyard for the past half month. Instead, her maid had been out every day. The more Jun Li thought about it, the more she felt that something was amiss with them. She didn't know what was amiss with them.
"Someone, call for the third young miss. It's so cold today, let's go to the Mo Xi Pavilion to pay our respects." Slowly sitting up from her chair, Jun Li decided to make a surprise attack tonight. She wanted to see what was going on with the Mo Xi pavilion.
"Yes." Yunque immediately accepted the order to ask for Chu Mu's resignation.
In less than an hour, the mother and daughter pair finished their preparations and headed in the direction of Mo Xi Pavilion.
On a late winter night, the road was very wet, wet, and slippery. Their speed was very slow, and it took them almost an hour to travel from the front yard to the most remote backyard.
The Mortal Pavilion was pitch black. The rustling of the branches against the cold wind came from the pitch-black courtyard, causing the Mo Xi Pavilion to appear somewhat eerie.
"Someone, go inside and light the lamp." Jun Li looked at the pitch black pavilion, and a snake-like smile spread across her face. A girl from a noble family wasn't in the courtyard at night – this was a serious crime in the Duke's Mansion.
Indeed, it was better to arrive early than by coincidence. He had caught something big.
Immediately after Jun Li's words, someone entered the Mo Xi Pavilion and lit up the lamp. The pitch black pavilion was immediately lit up by lanterns and lanterns.
There wasn't a single person in the room. Jun Li and Chu Mu looked at each other, and the smile in their eyes became even wider.
"Someone, go and invite the Third Madam and the Duke over." Jun Li was planning to blow the whole thing up, and she was going to let the Third Madam handle it with full authority.
The mother and daughter duo leisurely stood in the courtyard, waiting for the third wife and Duke. Even if the cold wind blew against their faces, they didn't feel cold at all.
It didn't take long for the third lady to come over with a few guards. From the way their fingers were interlocked, it could be seen that the Duke was staying in the third lady's courtyard tonight.
Jun Li's eyes fell on the place where their fingers were interlocked, as if he was about to spew fire.
She took a deep breath, trying her best to suppress the anger in her heart. She forced a smile on her face. "It's Jun Li's fault for disturbing the Duke and the Third Wife." Duke Chu saluted him with an apologetic tone.
"Alright, tell me what happened?" Duke Chu waved an impatient hand at Jun Li. Anyone who was dug out of a beauty's nest wouldn't be in a good mood, right?
"Recently, the weather has become even colder. I wanted to come and see what this Mo Xi Pavilion is missing, because I had something to do during the day, so I came over at night. However, when I arrived at the Mo Xi Pavilion, I discovered that it was actually empty. Where do you think the master and servant went this late at night? Is something wrong? " At this point, Jun Li's face revealed a look of worry.
Third Madam looked at Jun Li as a mocking smile appeared on her face. Would you be worried about the Mo Xi Pavilion lacking anything? You wish that the Mo Xi Pavilion would be lacking everything, the best would be to directly eliminate this Mo Xi Pavilion! You don't even have time in the day, do you? Are you aiming at the right time to come over?
"They're not in the courtyard at night, where did they go?" Duke Chu's interest was finally piqued as his gaze swept the courtyard. If not for the news of General Lin's annulment of the marriage, he would have forgotten that there was still a Mo Xi Pavilion.
"Such a cold day, this master and servant have nowhere to go!" Third Wife's eyes swept the yard until they fell on Jun Li's face.
"That may not be so! It was already past midnight … "I remember that there is a rule in the Duke Chu Palace that a lady cannot leave when she is still young, am I right?" The first lady glanced at the third lady and then stood there motionless, waiting for the decision of the third lady and the duke.
"Hmph, looks like the Duke's Mansion is getting more and more 'popular'!" Duke Chu glanced at the first and third wives, anger in his voice.
He seemed to be planning on using the Mo Xi Pavilion to set an example today!
Third Wife lowered her head, not daring to reply. She knew that this was the First Wife's doing. Even though the first wife had been warned by Duke Chu, she was still very happy when she saw the third wife being humiliated.
The group of people stood in the courtyard of the Mo Xi Pavilion. It seemed as though they were planning to directly catch Chu Mo Xi and Lian'er in a fit of rage.
When Lian'er entered the courtyard from the side door, she discovered that the courtyard was brightly lit. She thought that Chu Moxi had returned and excitedly pushed the door open. "Boss, you've finally returned …" When she saw the large group of people in the courtyard, including even the Duke, the First Madam, Third Madam, and the Third Miss, Lian'er was momentarily stunned.
