"Young Master——"

The door of the study was knocked, and the boy who was alone in the room opened the door from the inside. He saw that in addition to his close servant Ajiu, Liu Yi was also standing outside the door.

Xu Mingshi frowned slightly.

In the middle of the night, what did Liu Yi come to him?

"I have something important to you, and I will talk to you alone!" Although Liu Yi tried his best to suppress his anxious expression at this time, his hands holding the bag tightly could still be extremely nervous.

"Say anything just right."

Liu Yi glanced at Ajiu in embarrassment.

Ajiu glanced at her without hesitation - don't even think about sending him away, what if he was trying to do something wrong to his son? Although the son was only ten years old, his status was precious, and several little maids in the mansion began to approach the son restlessly.

"Ajiu is the person I trust." Xu Mingshi suppressed his impatientness, glanced at the burden in Liu Yi's arms, frowned and asked, "Are you going to go far?"

"Yes, I originally planned to look for my mother..." Liu Yi didn't care much about it immediately, so he could only stand in the same place and preached to him: "Young Master, I'm afraid I don't know yet. The girl has been abnormal these days. Maybe she has been sick for a long time and is a little confused..."

Xu Mingshi didn't have much change in expression on his face.

He also felt that Xu Mingyi was very abnormal these days.

"I don't know if I believed the words of someone with ulterior motives, and I suspected that she had caused her illness, which was caused by me!" Liu Yi said with aggrieved and her eyes were filled with tears: "How could such a thing happen?... I grew up with her since I was a child and knew her temper. Since she suspected that she had become me this time, she must make a big fuss..."

Xu Mingshi was a little shocked.

Xu Mingyi suspected that her illness was related to Liu Yi?

"If she just made a fuss with me, it would be fine if I was suffering... But today it happened that the old man returned home, and it was her birthday again, and the family had never been able to resist her. I heard some movement in the front yard and asked someone to inquire and found out that Aunt Ruan, who was closer to me on weekdays, was also implicated!"

Liu Yi looked at the boy who had just turned ten years old in front of him, noticed his expression change, and said at the right time: "Young Master is the grandson of the mansion. Last year, he was wrongly accused by the girl that you deliberately cut off her bowstrings, so he was severely punished by his wife... The young master is the eldest grandson of the mansion, and he still has to be punished for one or two slanderous words without evidence, let alone me... Especially when it comes to the girl's illness, I think I can't escape it easily."

As he said that, he was almost crying.

"I know that the young master has always been kind-hearted, and this time I really have no choice but to find the young master's place--"

She grabbed Xu Mingshi's arm with tears on her face, "...I just hope that the young master can tell me to escape tonight. I will find an opportunity to leave the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion tomorrow! When the truth will be revealed in the future, I will return to the mansion to repay the young master's kindness for protecting each other today!"

repay?

That's not rare.

Xu Mingshi looked at the arm she grabbed and said thoughtfully: "To put it bluntly, you just see that I have a bad relationship with my sister. I know how dissatisfied with her. Even if she is in the past, she will definitely agree to help you this time."

Liu Yi's expression was slightly stagnant, but he recovered quickly.

She knew that Xu Mingshi was smarter than ordinary children.

But so what about intelligence? Who said that Xu Mingyi offended too many people on weekdays, and even his younger brother was in a dilemma.

She thought she could tell how Xu Mingshi and Xu Mingyi had a tit-for-tat confrontation, and what kind of character a child of such a big age was like, and she thought she would be clearer than anyone else.

Over the years, she has been able to live a prosperous life in the Duke of Zhenguo’s Mansion by exploring people’s hearts and looking at people’s eyes.

"You said she is suspicious that you want to harm her now, and I do have many rifts with her..." Xu Mingshi whispered, still with a look of thought in his eyes.

Liu Yi's eyes lit up slightly when he heard this, and hope rose in his heart. Just as he was about to say something else, he suddenly saw the boy's hesitation was replaced by firmness, and murmured as if he was like this: "Since that's the case, I might as well bring you to her... and give her a step."

“…?”

——Did she hear it wrong?!

Before Liu Yi could react, he turned around and ordered the servant: "Ajiu, take the person to the front yard!"

He is not a narrow-minded person. On the contrary, he never really held a grudge against Xu Mingyi.

Even if he was really angry with her, he could not help but want to be nice to her after a few days... He knew that he was very unscrupulous, but he couldn't control himself!

Besides...

He did the matter of cutting the bowstring, not Xu Mingyi was wrongly slandered.

He had a fight with Xu Mingyi at that time, and was so angry that he took her favorite bow and exhaled.

Later, when he heard that she cried with pain, he learned that it was left to her by her biological mother, he felt very regretful and guilty.

In short, the conflict between him and Xu Mingyi can never be blamed on only one person. It’s just that after a long time of competition and getting older, neither of them is willing to surrender first.

And in the past few days, Xu Mingyi's attitude changed, he saw it, and vaguely felt that she was probably taking advantage of the illness and pretending to be confused to show kindness to him-

She has done this, and he, as a younger brother, has to respond a little to be decent!

Originally, he prepared a birthday gift for her, but he couldn't give it to her when he came in front of her today, because he was afraid that if she didn't like it, or if he misunderstood her so-called "provocation", he would not be able to step down again - after all, everyone is a person who wants face.

Now, it is better to take Liu Yiban as a birthday gift to explore her true attitude.

Liu Yi, who never expected this to end, was taken to the front yard like this.

Facing the Xu family members, she completely refused to admit that she had accomplices with the Ruan family.

He only said that he had sent the sleep-aid medicine to Ruan, but it was just a kind heart. He didn't know that Ruan actually used this medicine to harm Xu Mingyi.

Even if Xu Mingyi picked out the loopholes and contradictory behavior in his words, he still refused to recognize them.

At the end, when he saw that there was no hope of quibbling, he cried and moved out his father who had died in battle and kowtowed to Duke Zhenguo.

Cui sneered: "Over the years, Zhenguo Duke's Mansion has treated you with all his kindness and righteousness. If your father is really a wise man, he will learn from the underworld that you will be repaid with grudges and revenge in the nineteenth century. I am afraid he will have no face to plead for you-"

However, Duke Zhenguo raised his hand to stop his daughter-in-law from talking.

"Although your father was just an ordinary soldier in the army during his lifetime, he was both my Xu family army and died in battle on the battlefield. That was a hero! With this alone, I should spare his descendants' lives!"
