On the day of the birthday banquet, Yu Qiu got dressed early and called Ge Qi before leaving.He is untrustworthy, but he has not yet given birth to a second heart, and he is still available.

Hearing Yu Qiu's order to stop Xu Boqian from going to the birthday banquet, Ge Qi's eyes flickered, and he said in a low voice: "This kind of despicable villain, if we don't solve it thoroughly, there may be future troubles."

Yu Qiu was stunned.

She thought about handing Xu Boqian over to Taiwei Xiao or Yunheng, but she never thought about killing him directly.

It was like she had thought about poisoning Ge Qi before he betrayed him, but where to get the poison, how to explain his whereabouts to Yu Xingshu after killing him, how to dispose of the body, etc., she dared not make arrangements.

It is very simple to think and talk about many things, but there are so many things in the world, how can they be solved by simply "kill him".

Yu Qiu doesn't think she has the right to end the lives of others. She has only lived for 16 years. She is an ordinary person among all living beings. She has little knowledge and has never even been in Capital City. How can she control other people's lives?

When a person dies, he dissipates in the world, like Yu Xingshu in the previous life, all ties to the remaining relatives and blood are cut off, and he will never be found again in heaven and earth.

But she was very clear that what Ge Qi said was correct, and that a sinister villain like Xu Boqian would only harm others if he lived.

...It still doesn't work, even if one day she really wants to kill someone, she can't let Ge Qi do it.What if one day he pulls it out as a criminal evidence?

Yu Qiu looked at Ge Qi and asked: "This kind of despicable villain should be killed, but what about those who betray their trust and frame loyalty?"

"The same should be killed." Ge Qi said.

Yu Qiu looked away, "I see."

Seeing her depressed mood, Ge Qi remembered that she was just a boudoir girl who didn't know much about the world, so he went back and said, "I mean this person's morals are damaged, he must have done other shameful things, why don't we collect evidence and hand it over to the police later?"Yamen handles it."

Yu Qiu pursed his lips and nodded slightly.

After dismissing Ge Qi, Yu Qiu went out and met Yu's family at the gate of the General's Mansion.

All the members of the Yu family came, except Yu Yanzong, whose leg was not healed.Yu Huai'an lost face a few days ago, was fined several months' salary, and was also demoted from his official position. He wanted to take this opportunity to walk around more, and told Mrs. Yu to take good care of the second daughter, so he went to greet Yu Xingshu.

Madam Yu saw that Yu Qiu's outfit was ordinary compared to Yu Manxiu's, but her heart, which had been cooled by Yu Manxiu's rumors a few days ago, warmed up again.

Yu Qiu didn't have a mother, so naturally he didn't know what the women in the back house thought.

From the time Mrs. Gongyi's birthday banquet was confirmed, the families with girls of the right age became lively.

The prince is not yet married, and there are several juniors in the Gongyi General's Mansion who are not engaged.Moreover, the status of the people present at this birthday banquet will not be low. If my daughter can get into the eyes of some powerful person and achieve a good marriage, it will be a great thing.

Like Yu Manxiu and other boudoir girls, today's dresses are all exquisite and grand.But Yu Qiu's attire was only a little more solemn than in the past, and it was not a well-thought-out costume, which showed that he had no intention of finding a son-in-law at all.

Madam Yu felt relieved, took Yu Qiu's hand, and said kindly: "Are you feeling better? I wanted to see you several times, but Man Xiufei said that you had to rest and not let me go. Seeing that you are doing well now, the godmother can finally see you."not worried."

Yu Qiu was ready to meet their family today, tried to smile, and replied, "Everything is fine."

Yu Manxiu took Yu Qiu's arm, "Why are we being polite? Alright, go in quickly, I have something to talk to you later."

Madam Yu took the two of them to meet several elders, and before letting go, she warned: "Aqiu, Madam Xiao and the others will definitely come, you should pay more attention, don't be embarrassed on this occasion. Manxiu, you should be smart too.”

She always said that in the past, and Yu Qiu listened very carefully at that time, but now knowing that she has another purpose, she feels chills in her heart, but today's matter of Xiao Qingning is the key point, so she obediently obeyed without saying much.

Yu Manxiu smiled and said, "Mother, don't you trust me?"

Madam Yu smiled and nodded her cheek, and let them leave.

As soon as Yu Qiu turned around, he focused on searching for Xu Boqian's figure.

It had been more than half an hour since Ge Qi set off, if he failed to stop Xu Boqian, he should have appeared with the people from the Yasukuni Mansion.

Yu Qiu had no acquaintance with the Duke Jing's mansion, so he couldn't directly ask the servants in the mansion, but he looked left and right, but turned around, and saw Yu Manxiu staring at him curiously.Yu Qiu paused, and asked directly: "Can you see the people from the Yasukuni Mansion?"

After saying this, Yu Manxiu's expression changed immediately.No matter how bad the Jingguo Mansion is, it will still be the Hou Mansion, and she cannot get in touch with such aristocratic families.There was a ghost in heart, and couldn't help thinking more when heard others talking, and began to suspect that Yu Qiu wanted to have a relationship with the Duke's Mansion.

She put her arm around Yu Qiu and said: "I didn't see it, alas, let's go inside first, I just saw someone I know, let's talk."

Once inside, the male and female families were about to separate, so Yu Qiu gave up on Xu Boqian and carefully searched for Xiao Qingning.

She wanted to find someone quietly, but someone came to disturb her.

Ever since the third prince said she was a brainless beauty, Yu Qiu's name has spread among the ladies of Capital. There are not a few people who are jealous of her being the beauty recognized by the third prince, and most of them are sympathetic or watchingthought.

Yu Qiu seldom went out, and it was the first time after that incident that she was in a place with so many people, and the girls were already whispering to each other, and she would sneak a few glances at her from time to time.

When Yu Manxiu took her to say hello to a girl she was familiar with, someone approached and said with a smile: "Miss Yu is really sweet and tender, with a stunning appearance."

After the words fell, uncontrollable laughter came from all corners.

Yu Qiu raised her head and recognized that the person in front of her was Feng Nianzhen, the daughter of Minister of the Ministry of Rites. She vaguely remembered hearing that before she died, Feng Nianzhen had entered the Third Prince's Mansion, as if she was a side concubine.

Yu Qiu understood that she should be in love with the third prince, no wonder she came to mock her.

Of course it's uncomfortable to be seen as a joke, but Yu Qiu was thinking about the business and just wanted to find Xiao Qingning as soon as possible, so he replied politely: "You are too, Miss Feng."

Feng Nianzhen turned blue.

She is better than Yu Qiu in everything, except for her looks.Obviously, the clothes and jewelry are of the same class, but Yu Qiu's body is a bit prettier than hers.However, the third prince was easily attracted by beautiful things, so he never looked at her more. Hearing Yu Qiu's words at this time seemed to be laughing at her.

However, she couldn't tolerate her outburst here, so she suppressed her anger and said, "I heard that Miss Yu is smart, and she must be proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, can you show me some face and open my eyes?"

When Yu Qiu heard the word "chess", he thought of Yun Heng and the unfinished game of chess. He felt weak and was thinking about how to refuse when he suddenly heard the commotion in front of him.

Everyone looked together and saw the rich old lady who was one year old being supported by others. On the left was General Gongyi, on the right was Yun Heng with a gentle spring face, and after that were the juniors of Gongyi's family.

The Old Star of Longevity comes out and the conversation is interrupted.Yu Qiu quickly hid, but luckily other girls were willing to show their faces, so they just covered her.

Everyone saluted and celebrated the birthday together, and the sound of joy filled the sky.

Yu Qiuyin always felt that someone was looking at her when she was behind others, she thought it was Xiao Qingning, she raised her head suddenly, just in time to see Yun Heng turning her eyes away with a smile, she couldn't help being surprised, he shouldn't be looking at her just now, right?

Yu Qiu looked left and right, convinced that his attire was the same as those around him, settled down a little, and then moved back.

This time she finally saw Xiao Qingning, following Mrs. Xiao, surrounded by the ladies and wives of the Fang family.

After confirming that she was safe and sound, Yu Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, and then saw Xu Boqian.

Ge Qi failed to stop him.

Yu Qiu's heart sank, and he didn't have the heart to pay attention to others anymore.

After that, there is a banquet, and the tea and dishes on the banquet are the same, so there will be no mistakes.Yu Qiu held back and only stared at Xiao Qingning from afar.

After finally surviving the banquet, Yu Qiu went to find someone, but was stopped by Feng Nianzhen, "Didn't you just agree to play together? Where is Miss Yu going?"

Yu Qiu was impatient and said perfunctorily: "I don't know how to play piano, chess, calligraphy, or painting, so you can find someone else to play with."

"Your father is a scholar, how could you not know these things? Or do you look down on me and don't want to pay attention to me?"

Yu Qiu pursed her lips tightly, seeing that she wanted to make things difficult for herself.

The matter of Xiao Qingning is more important, if you offend someone, you can offend him. Anyway, her father is from the Ministry of Rites, so Yu Xingshu can't be embarrassed.

The words of refusal were about to come out, but Yu Manxiu saw that her face was not right, so she hurriedly grabbed her, and was the first to help her, saying: "Then let's play chess, but Aqiu is not good at chess, so please don't laugh at me, ladies."

The surrounding women covered their lips and laughed.

A lotus pond away, among the girls who were talking with Mrs. Gongyi, Gongyi Second Young Lady heard laughter and looked over, Xiao Qingning took advantage of the situation and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"I see it's busy over there."

"I heard it too, I don't know what it's playing."

Mrs. Gongyi is getting old, and she likes to watch the younger generation play around. Hearing this, she said with a smile: "If it's lively, let's go and play, you don't need to stay here as a company."

The girls looked at each other, said a few more words, and moved over with each other.

At the same time, in the attic, Chang Ji appeared in front of Yun Heng.

"Ge Qi has been captured, Xu Boqian gave the medicine powder to his concubine sister Xu Yanruo." Chang Ji spread out his palm, and inside was a pack of medicine powder, "It's an obscene medicine from the land of fireworks, it has been replaced with mother-of-pearl powder."

Yun Heng looked at it with lowered eyebrows, and suddenly smiled, "He really dares to do it."

Chang Ji also felt absurd, the General's Mansion was no different from other places, it was already heavily guarded, not to mention that this birthday banquet was organized by Yun Heng, any disturbances were under his nose.I really don't know whether to say Xu Boqian is bold or ignorant.

However, in any case, nothing that was not allowed at the birthday banquet could happen.

Yun Heng stood on the attic with his hands behind his back, smiling at General Gongyi who forced a smiling face in the distance, glanced at the medicine powder in Chang Ji's hand from the corner of his eye, and said indifferently: "He likes to use this method, so let him use it."That's enough. Lead it out of the mansion, replace it with ten times the amount and pour it down for him."

Chang Ji had concerns, "This kind of obscene drug can kill you..."

Yun Heng showed regret, "He's still useful." After a little consideration, he changed his mind and said, "Well, let's pour it twice and castration."

The corner of Chang Ji's mouth twitched, and he took the order to go down.

Yun Heng doesn't like others to destroy his plan, the mastermind is dealt with, and the accomplice cannot escape.In his eyes, there is no distinction between men and women, since Xu Yanruo is willing to help Xu Boqian, she has to admit to this crime.It just so happened that someone took the blame for what happened next.

On the highest attic of the General's Mansion, as far as the eye can see, the people who gather together to chat and laugh can be seen in full view.

Yun Heng glanced at the male guests on the left who were enjoying the flowers and drinking, and Yun Lang was among them, pestering Tang Yinshuang to let him drink.On the other side, there are several beautiful women sitting around the leisurely pool and waterside pavilion with a pontoon bridge, with Yu Qiu who was forced to stay in the middle.

She is very good at hiding her emotions. When playing chess with others, she moves the pieces quickly one by one, which is obviously perfunctory.

On the Nine Zigzag Bridge, Gongyi Mengyue was leading Xiao Qingning and others approaching, Xu Yanruo followed behind with a smile.

"Wait for people to disperse, and deliver the wine." Yun Heng ordered.

The aphrodisiac is fake, but the lychee wine is real, and he specially prepared it for Yu Qiu.The taste is sweet and delicious, but in fact the alcohol is very strong. After drinking, it should be supplemented with special hangover refreshments, otherwise it will be very easy to get drunk.

Xiao Qingning had arrived in the pavilion, and Yu Qiu was full of surprises.

Yun Heng could see clearly, and said to himself: "I want to see, if the 'aphrodisiac' must be drunk, do you choose to let Xiao Qingning come, or do it yourself."
