"What is it? You said that all of this was done by Ouyang Chengfeng!”Xiao Ran sat at the table dejectedly.”
Ji Yungui leaned against the window, frowning as he pondered,""From the development of the matter, that's right!”
" Boss Lin is a tycoon in Fujian and Zhejiang," Ying Wuxie said seriously." He once had an agreement with Yun Gui. He would ally with the rich merchants of Jiangnan. All goods would be transported by land and would not be transported by water. Even if they wanted to transport by water, they would not entrust it to Jiangnan Water Transport. This way, they would suppress Jiangnan Water Transport to a certain extent. At this time, Yun Gui would take down Jiangnan Water Transport and share the benefits with him later! However, Boss Lin seemed to be very anxious and acted very quickly. It was as if he had planned it all out. He was just waiting for Yungui to attack Xiao Manor! Returning Cloud felt that something was amiss, so he didn't do anything. He only spread the word that he wanted to take down Jiangnan Water Transport.”
"Then, I guessed that a while ago, the merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang had an extraordinary tacit understanding to resist the Jiangnan water transport. This move was very grand, and it was probably him who stirred up trouble. It was to make your father feel threatened and then agree to his marriage proposal. But I didn't expect you to run away from the marriage so thoroughly and even have a fortuitous encounter! The people around him were all characters he could not afford to offend! Left with no choice, he could only intensify the conflict! Hence, he poisoned your father and stole the account book and water transport map. His goal was to provoke you to look for him. In a situation where you were alone and weak, you relied on Ouyang Chengfeng! I didn't expect you to have the guts to bring Youyi and Fei Yuan over!”
He took a sip of tea and continued," Aiya, Ouyang Chengfeng is so good at scheming. He's so meticulous and meticulous. It's a pity that he's wrong about you, Xiaoran!" Hahahaha…you really are his nemesis!”
"Enough, seriously, there's more! He was the one who poisoned my father, so I have Youyi by my side…"
"The reason why he was so confident in using the phoenix blood was because he knew that even Youyi couldn't cure the poison! However, it can help your father temporarily restrain the poison and stall for time until you go to Minzhe.”
Ji Yungui sat beside Xiao Ran." Do you still remember when you were in Minzhe? Ouyang Chengfeng knew every move you made." That day, we had a fight. In the end, you were actually the person I was looking for. After that, Youyi said that I could save your father. Therefore, the Minzhe Water Transport could no longer threaten your father. In that case, there was no need for the Xiao Family to win over the Ouyang Aristocrat Clan. Your father's poison could also be cured. Hence, Ouyang Chengfeng could not hold it in any longer. Before you guys returned to the Xiao Family Residence, he took the opportunity to capture your father. I've finally seen what it means to be polite before resorting to force!”At this point, the corners of his mouth curled up and he looked at Xiaoran ambiguously."Sister Xiaoran, your husband is so outstanding. How did you capture his heart? He caused such a huge storm in the pugilistic world just to marry you!”
He glared at him fiercely, scaring Ji Yungui so much that he pursed his lips and didn't dare to say anything else. "Oh right, it's not a secret that we are going to Min-Zhe. The Ouyang Aristocrat Clan is so powerful and has a lot of information. But how did he know that you and I are not enemies and that you can save my father?”
Fei Yuan crossed her arms and leaned over." I've been hiding in the dark. If anyone tries to get close, they won't be able to escape my eyes!" I didn't see anyone trying to get information! Han Duo had said that he had received the news, so he went to Xiao Manor! Could it be that he knew how to read fortunes? Otherwise, where did you get the news from?"
"No matter what, there are no spies among us, and there is no one who can leak this! " Then…" Xiao Ran shook his head. He did not know what was going on, and everyone fell silent.
You Yi broke the silence." Also, that 'Phoenix Blood', something that was lost more than 400 years ago. How did he get it?" If it was a coincidence, then…it was too much of a coincidence! Zou Kang had no successor! If it was left behind by Zou Kang, then it should have lost its effect after 400 years. Why…"
"Alright, these suspicious points will come to light one day. Right now, I need to know where my father is locked up by him and whether he's in good health!”
"Don't worry. When it's late at night, we'll go and investigate. For the next few days, you can just wait to be the bride!”You Yi smiled sweetly, and a hint of shrewdness flashed in her eyes!
"Yes, I will wait for him to marry me!”Xiao Ran said with a smile, but there was no joy in her words!
"Madam, it's time to pass the meal!" The butler stood in the courtyard with a smile on his face.
"Alright."
"Quick, be more efficient!" The butler instructed everyone to go back and forth between the house and the corridor from time to time.
It can't be that exaggerated! Was this a banquet or something? From appetizers to desserts, there were more than twenty dishes and a set of utensils!
"Madam, please enjoy!" He looked at everyone.
"Oh, everyone's food has been sent to your rooms. This is Madam's dinner!”
How could a person eat so much?”
"What? This…Madam…is against the rules…" The butler looked troubled. How could a servant eat at the same table as his master?
Qing Cang brought Lian 'er in. This girl had finally woken up! Qing Cang glanced at them," Heh, this Ouyang Aristocrat Clan sure is generous. A madam's dinner is even more sumptuous than a princess 'dinner!" Right, Lian 'er?"
"En, the palace is strictly based on the grade of the food. In this way, it is indeed more sumptuous than princess's!”
"I am the rule!"”
"Yes, Madam!" The butler was stunned. Thus, the servant girls got busy again.
Everyone sat down and Ji Yungui started to eat. The butler was about to stop him when Xiaoran glanced at him. He lowered his head and said," This master was really protective of his own people. Even the servants were so impudent!
He picked a mouthful of food and put it into his mouth. Then, he glanced at the dishes on the table. Just as Xiao Ran was about to make a move, he was stopped by him."You can't eat this dish!"
"Why?"
"It's fine if we eat. Just watch!”
Xiao Ran looked puzzled, and Fei Yuan also started eating."The food is poisoned!"
When the butler heard this, he was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat."How is that possible? Nonsense, this was specially prepared by the kitchen! There's…there's poison, and you still eat it!"
Qing Cang ate." It's okay if we eat. We won't die. But if you eat, you'll be in trouble!"”
Wu Xie took a sip of the soup and said with a smile,""Can anyone taste the poison?”
"I don't know much about poison, but the taste of the dishes is not bad!”You Yi said calmly.
"But the added ingredients have lowered the taste by a level. What a pity!”Ji Yun Gui Yi took another bite of the dish with a regretful expression! "Barely!" He frowned and looked unhappy.
