Chapter 17: Extracting Poisons

Proofread by Yin Jing


"When did you become so interested in my friends, Brother?" Liang He interrupts suddenly.


Since Liang Yi arrived here, he has been staring at Yan Ling. Liang He has long been dissatisfied with him, but it is not the time for him to speak. Now, Liang Yi becomes even more aggressive to ask Yan Ling's name.


Liang He can't stand it any longer. Before he thinks about it clearly, he subconsciously takes two steps and blocks Yan Ling behind him. He looks at Liang Yi with an unpleasant face, which is clearly the expression as if his own things were being peeped by others.


Looking at Liang He like this, Liang Yi suddenly feels that his idea that Liang He is homosexual is not so illogical. Maybe, he really is.


Thinking of this, Liang Yi forgets to explore the man's identity, but stares straight at Liang He, as if trying to find out something from his face.


"It's just a casual question. Why are you so nervous, Brother? It's really surprising." Liang Yi shakes his fan and his white clothes look somewhat dazzling.


"I'm not nervous but remembers some unhappy experiences between my friend and you, Brother. So it's easy to think more." Liang He says naturally.


Maybe it's a natural aura. What Liang He says always makes people believe without any reason. Even Liang Yi is also in a trance. Is it true that he thinks too much?


This farce seems to be over. Liang Yi doesn't ask anything about Yan Ling, but leaves on the pretext that he has something to do.


Although Liang He and Yan Ling are a little unhappy for being disturbed by Liang Yi, they are not upset during their travel later. Even after they have sent Yan Ling home, they still feel not enough.


However, what wish Liang He has made is forgotten by them.


After returning to her own room, Yan Ling orders Liyi to change her clothes and burn them in the yard.


"Why do you do that, My Lady?" Liyi seems puzzled.


"If I'm not wrong, the Third Prince has begun to doubt my identity now. So, in recent days, we have no use of these clothes. If they are found by someone else, you can't explain it clearly." Yan Ling says with a frown.


"Oh, so it is." Liyi seems to be sad that she can't go out to play recently.


"But there is no need to burn them. It's OK to put these clothes in Nan Yan's place, isn't it?" Liyi thinks about it and says.


"These are our clothes. Even if we don't mind, I'm afraid Nan Yan can't agree." When Yan Ling says this, she suddenly smiles.


Liyi thinks that Miss Ling is right according to that boy's characteristics. He cares more about the differences and distance between girls and boys. Liyi thinks it's funny.


"That's right. What's more, these clothes are much bigger than his. Some smart guys will find out that they are not his things." Liyi understands.


That night, Liyi finds a place in a bamboo forest outside the yard. After checking that there is no one around, she carefully takes out the clothes and burns them.


However, a black shadow is secretly looking at her from the place Li fails to notice . After Liyi leaves, the black figure goes to check the place where she just burned clothes.


"Are you sure it's Liyi in Yan Ling's yard?" Yan Shuang asks strangely.


"You don't need to doubt, My Lady. How can't I recognize Liyi?" Qinghe says.


Yes, it is Qinghe who just saw Liyi burning things in the bamboo forest. Qinghe was embarrassed by Yan Ling and was slapped by Miss Shuang because of Liyi before. Since then, Qinghe has been bearing a grudge against Liyi. How can't she recognize Liyi?


Just now, she saw someone burning things in the bamboo forest. At the beginning, Qinghe was just curious. When she looked carefully, she found that it was Liyi and began to think of revenging her.


When Liyi left, Qinghe immediately ran to check. But she found that Liyi was too cautious to leave until everything burned to ashes.


Even through careful examination, Qingheshe could not see what it was. She could not help gnashing her teeth.


But then Qinghe also understood that, if it wasn't something important, Liyi didn't need to be so careful. In this way, Qinghe hurriedly went back to the yard and told Miss Shuang about the news.


"It seems that it's something in the dark. In this case, we can make use of it." Although Yan Shuang feels a little regret, she immediately comes up with a new idea.


"But My Lady, those things have been completely burnt to ashes. We don't know what they are." Qinghe thinks that Miss Shuang has forgotten that, and hurriedly whispers a warning.


"Hum! So what, as long as they dare not to say what it is. " Yan Shuang snorts.


"Come here..." Yan Shuang beckons to Qinghe and whispers something in her ear.


The next day, Yan Ling is woken up by Liyi when she is still asleep.


Yan Ling follows his daily schedule strictly. But, she didn't get up early today just because she was tired yesterday. As soon as she was called by Li, Ling woke up naturally.


However, looking at Liyi's expression, Yan Ling suddenly feels that things are not that simple.


"Liyi, what happened?" Yan Ling suddenly becomes sober and asks with a frown.


"There are a lot of dead mice and insects outside our yard, My Lady. Many people have seen that since this morning. Now there are rumors that you are extracting poisons in the yard." Liyi is a little panicked.


Yan Ling frowns and thinks that how she could get those things out of her yard for no reason? It's such a coincidence that it's seen by many people. She thinks about it a little bit, and figures out that someone must aim at framing her deliberately. It's not so hard to guess who the person is.


"Now Her ladyship has arrived and she asked to see you, My Lady." Seeing that Yan Ling doesn't speak, Liyi quickly adds.


"Mother is here, too?" Yan Ling presses her forehead. She is afraid it's not so easy to deal with.


"Yes, I think that Her Ladyship is very angry! What can we do about it, My Lady?" Liyi is obviously at a loss. She is so worried that her tears are coming out.


"Don't worry, Liyi. We haven't done anything wrong, so we'll be fine. Dress me up. Let's go out and see what's wrong." Yan Ling immediately appeases Liyi, and at the same time thinks what Yan Shuang wants to do.


"I guess that your maid has already told you what happened in your yard." Sure enough, as soon as she gets to the front hall, Ling finds Mrs Yan sitting there with an unhappy face.


Yan Ling is not frightened by her interrogation. She looks at Yan Shuang who stands by quietly, and then bows to show respects to Mrs. Yan.
