Xu Miaoyin stood up from the bed, and Yuchun put a pillow behind her waist in time.

Xu Miaoyin leaned on the soft pillow and looked at the two maids in front of her looking at her with worried eyes.

She smiled, feeling a little bitter and sour in her heart. How did things develop to this point? Her life seemed to have been crushed into pieces and was in pieces. She didn't know how to pick it up again.

Seeing that Xu Miaoyin was in a low mood, Yuchun comforted her and said, "Girl, today's breakfast is all your favorites, so please eat as much as you like."

Xu Miaoyin nodded and said okay softly.

After freshening up, Xu Miaoyin sat down at the dining table and told Yuqiu: "Yuqiu, go to Lingyuexuan and see if the second girl is awake. If she is, ask her to come over and have breakfast with her."

Yuqiu took the order and left.

Xu Miaoyin took small bites of the white porridge in the bowl. She has liked white porridge without any seasoning since she was a child. The longer it boils, the more aroma and sweetness of the corn can be stimulated. Everyone said that time will tell the difference in people's hearts.

If it is bad from the beginning, no matter how long you spend cooking it, you will get a pot of broken porridge.

After a while, Xu Jiaoyue followed Yuqiu to Lanyin Academy.

This was the second time Xu Jiaoyue came to Lanyin Academy, but her mood this time was very different from the last time. She might know what Xu Miaoyin wanted to say to her.

Xu Miaoyin asked someone to bring Xu Jiaoyue some dishes and chopsticks, so she told Yuqiu and Yuchun not to wait on them and let them go down first.

Xu Jiaoyue also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Xu Miaoyin knew that it was better not to let irrelevant people know some things, not to mention the two of them were still Xiao Qi's people.

Xu Miaoyin thought very simply, she just didn't want the two maids to worry anymore.

After Xu Miaoyin finished her porridge, she looked at Xu Jiaoyue quietly. Seeing how delicious she was eating, she smiled and said, "Eat slowly, don't choke."

Xu Jiaoyue swallowed the food in her mouth and said softly: "Sister, you came to me because you have something to say."

Xu Miaoyin nodded and said: "I actually want to leave, but before I leave, I want to find a way out for everyone in my family. I don't want them to be affected by the Xu family."

Xu Jiaoyue sighed secretly. If she knew that the people staying here now were all fake and were all Xiao Qi's people, would she still think so?

"What do you want to do?"

Xu Miaoyin said: "I want to tell dad about this matter. The three of us as a family can talk to Xiao Qi openly. So I came to you because I want to ask you, if you let go of the glory and wealth of the Xu family, what will Jiaojiao do?"

Weird sister."

Xu Jiaoyue replied without thinking: "How could I blame my sister? My sister has always loved me and always made plans for us. Prosperity and wealth are just clouds. The most important thing is that the family can be together!"

I guess the real Xu Jiaoyue would do the same thing. After all, she also left behind all the people who went away with Qin Zhan.

Xu Miaoyin took Xu Jiaoyue's hand and said, "It seems that Jiaojiao has really grown up."

Xu Jiaoyue held Xu Miaoyin's hand and said solemnly: "It's better not to tell anyone about this yet. Dad is not in good health. It's better to wait until everyone has been arranged before telling him."

Xu Rennian is also lying. Telling him is meaningless. Now she can only stabilize Xu Miaoyin first, and then she will find a way to tell her the truth bit by bit. I think she should be able to accept it slowly.

Xu Jiaoyue naturally thought of what Xu Miaoyin wanted. She thought about it all night and made up her mind last night. She could no longer let others manipulate her. If they wanted to escape from Xiao Qi's hands, they must have their own bargaining chip. That bargaining chip

It is the lifeblood of the Xu family, the salt field in Yancheng.

The salt produced by the Xu family can account for 80% of the salt on the market, and the reason why the Xu family can account for such a large proportion is because the salt of the Xu family does not have any impurities. There is naturally a secret to being able to achieve such a process, and this

These secrets are in the hands of every head of the Xu family.

It can be said that as long as you have this secret, you have mastered the secret of making money, which is also the origin of the Xu family's wealth.

If Xiao Qi really wants to control the Xu family's property, then this is the only bargaining chip.

Xu Rennian knew Xiao Qi's purpose and persuaded him to hand over the secret, which would save the Xu family and allow Xiao Qi to let them leave.

Xu Miaoyin believed that in the face of huge wealth, Xiao Qi would agree to let them go.

Isn't this the purpose of coming to Xu's house?

Xu Miaoyin analyzed the pros and cons with Xu Jiaoyue, but Xu Jiaoyue thought of another thing.

According to what happened, Xu Rennian was sent to prison, could it be because he did not hand over the secret of the Xu family's salt production?

"Sister, you told me yesterday that dad will be unjustly imprisoned soon. Is it possible that dad was unwilling to hand over the secret of making salt, so he was thrown into prison? Since dad has not handed over the secret of making salt,

How could they let dad die so easily if the secret was revealed?"

Xu Miaoyin was startled and recalled the situation at that time. She asked her cousin to go to the prison to see how her father was doing. Within half a day, she sent a message back, saying that her father had contracted the plague and died suddenly. If he didn't die, then why did they fake him?

The news of her death was spread to her ears?

"Then what is their purpose? Why did they falsely tell me about my father's death?" Xu Miaoyin looked at Xu Jiaoyue and asked.

Xu Jiaoyue thought for a while and said: "Maybe they think my sister knows. Even if dad doesn't tell, as long as you know the news of dad's death, you will tell everything about the salt production."

But Xu Miaoyin shook her head and said: "No, no one from them came to see me. Until I died, the people who killed me never asked me anything about salt, so there must have been something happened to us in the meantime."

Things you don’t know.”

Xu Jiaoyue asked: "What will happen? Why did they set fire to the Xu family?"

After hearing Xu Jiaoyue's question, Xu Miaoyin shook her head, and she didn't know why.

The two of them were silent and thinking for a long time, but they looked at each other at the same time, and saw a sudden realization in the other's eyes, as if they both thought of something.

"Since they set fire to destroy the Xu family, they must have obtained the secret of making salt before then, so what can make father speak? Only the safety of our sisters can make father speak." Xu Miaoyin analyzed, but

Then he wondered again: "Why did they send the news of dad's death back to me? I still can't figure it out."

Xu Jiaoyue also wondered why they had to go to extra trouble to get what they wanted, but suddenly sent back such a message. What was the purpose?

This may be the key to whether Xiao Qi killed Xu Renian or not.

The two of them were thinking and meditating, but they still couldn't figure out what happened in the middle, but one thing could be prevented in advance. Just like Xu Miaoyin said, use this as a bargaining chip to exchange for the safety of the family.

Perhaps the side that takes the initiative will have a glimmer of hope.

But Xu Jiaoyue still disagrees with letting the fake Xu Renian know, as that will only arouse Xiao Qi's suspicion, and then they won't be able to leave even if they want to.

Is she going to expose everyone's disguise now?

Can Xu Miaoyin accept it?

Xu Jiaoyue was struggling in her heart, wondering whether she should have a showdown with Xu Miaoyin at this time.

After thinking about it, Xu Jiaoyue said tentatively: "Well, sister, if one day you find out that the world you live in is fake, what will you do?"

When Xu Miaoyin heard this, her expression changed. She looked at Xu Jiaoyue for a long time. It was not until Xu Jiaoyue swallowed her saliva nervously that Xu Miaoyin said: "Xiao Duo told me before he left that I should not trust the people around me. They

They are all lying to me..."

Xu Miaoyin paused, stood up, walked behind Xu Jiaoyue, and gently put her hand on Xu Jiaoyue's shoulder, but Xu Jiaoyue tensed up instantly, and then Xu Miaoyin continued: "Now Jiaojiao, you are telling me this again."

, I think you both know the same thing but I don’t know, what could it be?”

Xu Jiaoyue's heart was in her throat, but she didn't know how to mention this matter to Xu Miaoyin. At this moment, Xu Miaoyin suddenly let go of Xu Jiaoyue, walked back slowly, and sat next to Xu Jiaoyue again.

Looking at Xu Jiaoyue, he answered the question she just asked, "If I find out that the world I live in is fake, then my only hope is that as long as you and dad really treat me sincerely, I will still be myself."

Well, this sentence directly broke Xu Jiaoyue's hope. It seems that we have to tell her slowly. Then how can we let her discover it by herself?

Xu Jiaoyue had a headache. This was really not an easy thing to do.

Xu Miaoyin asked at this time: "Jiaojiao, why didn't Yunxiang come with you to serve me today?"

Xu Jiaoyue didn't come back to her senses for a while. She was stunned for a while and then said: "Oh, she has been feeling a little unwell recently, so I asked her to stay in Lingyuexuan to rest."

Xu Miaoyin heard this and said happily: "Jiaojiao is much more attentive now."

Xu Jiaoyue laughed innocently. She didn't care about that pervert. If Xu Miaoyin hadn't asked and she didn't want to betray him right away, she would have confessed him long ago!

Xu Miaoyin glanced at Didi and said, "Jiaojiao, please go back first. I will come back to you if I have something to do."

With that said, he called Yuqiu and Yuchun to clear away the cold breakfast on the table.

Xu Jiaoyue thought that she also needed to go back and make a careful calculation, so she got up and left Lanyinyuan.

Xu Miaoyin sent her to the entrance of the hospital. Looking at Xu Jiaoyue's retreating back, her expression became complicated.

Xiao Qi has not seen Xu Miaoyin in the past few days. He just stayed alone in the study. However, the secret guards around the study were a little miserable. Everyone was afraid to make any mistakes for fear of being angry.

People in the study.

The master's face has been extremely cold these days, and no one dares to get into trouble.

Xiao Qi sat in an armchair with a cold face, holding the medicine given to him by Lu Shifang in his hand.

It has been several days, but she has shown no sign of coming to find him. She is simply indifferent to him. If he waits for two more days, if she still doesn't come to him, then he will...

Xiao Qi was so cruel that he went to find her. He didn't believe that she was indifferent at all!

He put away the pills in his hand again. In fact, he still couldn't bear to let Xu Miaoyin take the pill. After all, he was still afraid. No matter how cruel he was, he still didn't dare to do anything harsh to her.

Xiao Qi was a little helpless, but no matter how helpless he was, he didn't always ask for it.

At this time, a secret guard came to report.

"My lord, there is news from people in Shu." The secret guard handed the letter he had just received to Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi took it casually and unfolded it slowly. His expression was a little casual just now, but then he suddenly became serious.

Great, we finally have news about Xu Jiaoyue.

In this way, Xu Miaoyin should not blame him anymore. As long as he brings people to see her, maybe they will have a chance to start over.
To be continued...
