The Fourth Lady

Chapter 80 Yaoyao is Poisoned I

Regarding their request, although Liushang felt very reluctant, there was nothing he could do about it.

After all, they all wanted to come verify whether what he said was true or not. Above all, they were also

very excited to meet the young girl named Su Qingyan.

"Liushang, are you sure that girl can play [Thousand Beasts and Phoenix]?" Yanmei looked to

Liushang still with doubt. Along the way, Liushang didn't really say much about the matters regarding

that girl to them.

Liushang looked to Yanmei and reluctantly spoke, "You'll know when the time comes. You have to

know, Donghe is where the Seven Star Hall's headquarters is located. Your appearance isn't a good

thing."

Yanmei looked to Liushang and laughed, "So what? Within Diqiu, aside from Fengqing, no one else

can be considered my opponent."

"Boss, that's you. Who doesn't know in this Jianghu, your skills are second only to Fengqing. The rest

of us naturally fall behind others, not to mention there's less of us." Anying looked to Yanmei with a

reluctant look, "Fourth brother and I don't have that kind of talent."

"But even so, elder brother, do you think there's something strange about this matter?" Yanmei glanced

to the pondering Yaochi and asked in a serious tone. "It's be great if those animals were here as well,

that way they can also verify that girl's identity."

Yaochi turned to the three of them and waved his hand, "No matter, I heard that the Dingguo General

will be returning to the capital shortly. If we can experience that girl's abilities firsthand at the Dragon

Gate Festival, then perhaps we can be sure."

"Dragon Gate Festival?" Liushang helplessly frowned, "Don't tell me you want to appear at the Dragon

Gate Festival? That's not possible."

Yaochi rolled his eyes at Liushang, "We can't go publicly, secretly is no good either, what do you think

we do for a living!?"

Liushang looked to Yaochi's glare and could only keep the words to himself. When it comes to

speaking, he didn't really rank that high. After all, he was not good with words.

"Liushang, don't you need to give that miss the Seven Colored Lingyun Snake? When the time comes,

we can just confirm from afar." Anying looked to the other three and voiced his opinion. But what he got

in return was an annoyed look from Yaochi and Yanmei.

Liushang looked to Anying and reluctantly shook his head, "I only felt that her behavior was a lot like

the Pavilion Master, I didn't say she looked like her."

Anying felt a cold glare from Yanmei, "Fourth brother, don't tell me just because the Pavilion Master

isn't here anymore that your brain's no longer working either."

Anying glanced to Yanmei and decided not to say anything anymore. Yaochi looked to them and

smiled, "Where is the Su manor? I'll go visit her in secret, and we'll know once I see her."

What Yaochi said wasn't unreasonable; back then he was the one that was at Qilian Qingyan's side the

longest. But who would have known that not even a month after Yaochi left, Qilian Qingyan ended up

dying in regret. In the end, no one blamed themselves more than Yaochi.

Yaochi, who was Qilian Qingyan's personal bodyguard, was unable to protect her.

"Elder brother, don't tell me you're going to visit the Su manor at night?" Liushang looked up to Yaochi

with a look of disbelief.

Yaochi nodded in response, "If I can know one or two of her habits, then perhaps it'll be a simple matter

when we reconfirm a second time." Before waiting to hear their agreement, Yaochi had already

disappeared ahead of them.

And seeing Yaochi's disappearing back, the other three could only helplessly shrug their shoulders.

When it came to qinggong*, none of them were a match for Yaochi.

(*TN: Qinggong is the martial art skill of being light-footed to point it looks like one's flying.)

The Su family were prosperous and grand; Yaochi was able to quickly locate the Su manor. Using his

strong sense of hearing he was able to find out where Su Qingyan's yard was.

Afterwards, he could only conceal himself in an inconspicuous large tree. This tree was only about a

few meters away from Qingyan's Yingshuang yard. However, Yaochi's eyes were extremely good as

well. He could clearly see everything about the Yingshuang yard.

At the same time, Qingyan who was currently napping, seemed to have felt something. When she

forced her eyes open, she saw the white tiger's tail continuously helping her repel mosquitoes. But just

when she was about to get up, she knocked over a tea cup by her bed.

"Miss, what's wrong? Did you have a nightmare again?" Hearing the sound, Zizhu pushed opened the

door and entered. Afterwards, Baizhi also entered from behind.

Qingyan rubbed her forehead, "No, mostly likely I'm just not clear headed right now."

Huangcen came in with a bowl of water and passed the towel to Qingyan, "Miss why don't you wipe

your face, you'll feel more awake."

Qingyan took the towel from her hand with a smile, reluctantly shaking her head, "This girl, when did

you learn to tease your miss?"

Huangcen shook her head laughing, "I wouldn't dare tease miss."

After Qingyan recovered her senses, she ordered Zizhu to opened the windows to let in some fresh air.

And that tree in front of her window was precisely the tree Yaochi was hiding in earlier.

"Miss, I remembered I had just swept under this tree yesterday, why is there more leaves again?" Zizhu

looked to the fallen leaves and reluctantly sighed.

"Perhaps the wind at night is too strong. I already told Fengqing not to appear in that tree anymore."

Qingyan met Zizhu's eyes with a smile, "Why don't you let someone clean up again."

"I'll go right away."

"Miss, I heard that first miss has really gone insane." Qingdai relayed to Qingyan the Su manor's gossip NôvelDrama.Org content.

one by one.

Qingyan lifted up the teacup before her with a smile, "Did Ning Siyao not go inform her son?"

"How could she not? I heard that after the first miss lost her mind, she immediately notified the second

young master. Although, the second young master should be returning soon."

"Oh!" Qingyan stared at the tea leaves in her cup, "Qingdai, how do you think that Su Qingming is

going to deal with me?"

Qindai looked to Qingyan, not understanding, "Miss, that second young master is definitely going to

return a tooth for a tooth. But don't you already have a way to counter him?"

"No, I've yet to come up with a countermeasure. However, your master perhaps would be more than

happy if I help him get rid of this pawn." Su Qingyan glanced to the previously set chessboard. She

picked up a white piece and ate one of the black piece. "If the fallen one has no regrets, then who will

strive with me!"

"Huangcen! I want to eat something light today. Prepare some chicken skin and bamboo shoot porridge

for me, along with some small dishes."

"Miss, I saw that your appetite hasn't been good these days, so I prepared for you a porridge with yam,

lily, and dates, what do you think miss?"

Qingyan knows that Huangcen's skills were good, so she nodded with a smile, "Naturally it's fine,

Huangcen is always so thoughtful."

"What are you saying miss, I'm very happy to be able to serve miss. I'll go get it right away." With that

said, Huangcen ran out Qingyan's room.

"Miss, Yaoyao looks like it's sick. No matter how we tease it, it doesn't respond." Baizhi came in,

carrying Yaoyao in her arms.

Qingyan took Yaoyao into her arms and ruffled its fur, "Yaoyao, what's wrong with you?"

The small fox weakly nuzzled Qingyan's arm, "Master, I don't feel well. I think I ate a chicken, and

afterwards Yaoyao feels painful." That said, it passed out in Qingyan's arms.

Qingyan listened to Yaoyao's words and then looked up to Baizhi, "Baizhi, what did you give Yaoyao to

eat earlier?"

"I didn't give it anything to eat! But I did see there was some bones next to it earlier, perhaps it ate a

chicken."

"Fengqing." Qingyan called out into the air, "Go get me Murong Jingxuan and Chonglou. I think Yaoyao

is poisoned."
