Chapter 367 Brother, You Smell So Good
Asagao wiped away her tears and turned to walk towards the back mountain.

Jiang Liuyun followed closely behind Chaoyan, completely unaware of Lu Huai hiding to the side.

Lu Huai only came out after Jiang Liuyun and the other person had gone far away.

His feelings were indescribable. Even though he knew Lin Zhiqing had a plan, he couldn't help but worry about her safety.

Lu Huai knew what kind of person Li Jinzhi was.

With that thought in mind, he turned and headed towards the back of the mountain.

"Lu Huai!"

The son of the Imperial Academy Chancellor stopped him: "Where are you going? Today we..."

"We'll discuss this another day. I still have some things to take care of," Lu Huai said, raising his hand to interrupt him.

Without saying much, he headed towards the back of the mountain.

Upon seeing this, the Chancellor of the Imperial Academy looked puzzled: "What could be more important than the affairs of our Ministry of Revenue?"

He shook his head and sighed inwardly.

What a lively poetry gathering today!

Meanwhile, Li Jinzhi, who had gone to the back mountain earlier, was almost there.

Yan Yu hid on the eaves of the outer room, yawning as he observed the movements outside.

Only after Li Jinzhi came into his line of sight did he stretch and perk up his ears.

"Where is he? Have they been brought back?" Li Jinzhi asked a servant outside the courtyard.

The servant chuckled, "Young master, it's good that you gave the order early. I've brought the person back; they're inside."

"Well done, reward me!" Li Jinzhi was in a good mood, free from Jiang Liuyun's sinister gaze.

The servant behind him reluctantly gave the gatekeeper a silver ingot, and then stopped walking on his own.

After Li Jinzhi entered the courtyard, he did not go into the inner room immediately. Instead, another servant brought him a tray.

Yan Yu frowned.

The tray contained items such as silver needles, whips, and incense sticks.

Yan Yu used to frequent brothels in Yongqing, so how could he not know the uses of these things?

That kid's really good at this.

He shook his head, then quickly jumped off the roof and went into the inner room.

Seeing Yan Yu enter, Lin Zhiqing looked puzzled: "Li Jinzhi will be here soon, what are you doing here?"

"If you don't come in now, you'll be in for a world of hurt. Get out of the way." Without a word, he pulled Lin Zhiqing up and pulled her veil over his own head.

Lin Zhiqing looked puzzled: "No, you've taken a liking to Li Jinzhi?"

Yan Yu paused, then gritted his teeth and said, "Your grandpa likes women!"

As he spoke, he casually smeared some of the sleeping potion from Lin Zhiqing's wrist onto his own body, and then shoved Lin Zhiqing under the bed.

Just after all the actions were completed, the door opened with a "click"!
Despite having countless questions in her mind, things had already progressed to this point, and Lin Zhiqing dared not make any further rash moves.

As Li Jinzhi's footsteps drew closer, Lin Zhiqing held her breath.

"My beauty, have you missed me lately?" Li Jinzhi walked around the screen and rubbed his hands together.

Lin Zhiqing could only see a pair of boots parked by the bed.

She couldn't help but worry. Yan Yu was, after all, a man. What would happen if Li Jinzhi saw through him?

"My beauty, you smell so good!" Li Jinzhi sat on the bed and took a deep breath:

"Your skin looks even fairer and smoother than before, it's only been a few days!"

Hmm... Lin Zhiqing took back her previous thought.

The skin of the shrew is indeed quite good.

Li Jinzhi, unaware that the young woman before him was a man, took a few deep sniffs of Yan Yu's fragrance and reached out to lift the veil.

Yan Yu dodged his hand.

Li Jinzhi was taken aback, then chuckled lewdly twice:
“You’re becoming more and more interesting these days. It’s quite a sight to behold through the veil.” With that, he got up and washed his hands.

Lin Zhiqing heard the sound of water and was a little puzzled. Could it be that Li Jinzhi had a cleanliness obsession and had to wash his hands before doing anything?
But the next moment, she realized something was wrong.

Because Li Jinzhi picked up a whip, and the whip hung down to the ground right in front of Lin Zhiqing!

Is this kid playing such fancy tricks?

Lin Zhiqing was surprised, but couldn't help but worry about Yan Yu.

No wonder Yan Yu forced her in earlier; he was worried she wouldn't be able to handle Li Jinzhi's quirks!

Although Lin Zhiqing had made several preparations in advance, she really didn't know that Li Jinzhi was so abnormal.

No, she couldn't just stand by and watch Li Jinzhi harm Yan Yu!

Lin Zhiqing gritted his teeth and took out the jade flute he had gotten back from Yan Yu.

The sound of the jade flute can control the person playing it, and can also briefly put them into a hypnotic state, but this forced hypnosis is a very energy-consuming and error-prone technique.

Lin Zhiqing hadn't used it for a long time since the last time he used it to hypnotize Di Ren and Jiang Liuyun.

Because her energy could not support the wear and tear on the flute.

Therefore, she now does everything herself and doesn't rely much on the hypnotic effect of the jade flute.

Although she has been using the flute for a long time, she is still unsure whether she can completely hypnotize Li Jinzhi.

What's more, there are people outside this courtyard.

With Yan Yu present, their entry was simple and did not disturb others, but if they played the flute, it would certainly disturb others.

Lin Zhiqing gritted her teeth. Yan Yu was, after all, her partner, and had just helped her. She couldn't just watch this social butterfly be trampled on!

Thinking of this, she picked up her flute and began to play...

"boom!"

Lin Zhiqing paused, the melody from before being drowned out by the loud noise, seemingly unnoticed by anyone.

She could clearly see that the door had been kicked open!
Then, the voices of servants came from outside.

"Don't stop us! My young master is inside. What right do you have to force your way into this courtyard?"

"Even the heir of a marquis's mansion shouldn't be so domineering!"

"What do you intend to do to my young master?!"

Li Jinzhi was startled by the commotion, and the whip in his hand slipped from his grasp and fell to the ground.

Yan Yu, who was sitting on the bed, could hear Lin Zhiqing's flute music, but he didn't have time to pay attention to Lin Zhiqing at the moment, and instead looked towards the door.

Jiang Liuyun stood outside the door, his eyes filled with anger.

His aura was extremely cold and desolate.

"Jiang, Jiang, Young Master Jiang, what are you doing here?" Li Jinzhi was startled, his previous interest completely gone, and he began to tremble.

But his face was flushed with an abnormal redness.

Only Yan Yu knew that the sleeping potion had taken effect, and a slow smile crept onto his lips.

Jiang Liuyun didn't speak, but just looked at the person dressed in red on the bed.

He frowned slightly, sensing that something was wrong, but before he could figure out what was wrong, Li Jinzhi suddenly began to convulse.

Jiang Liuyun sensed something was wrong and immediately went forward to check.

But before he could get close to Li Jinzhi, he saw Li Jinzhi fall to the ground.

Then, the person in red on the bed moved and quickly dragged another woman out of the wardrobe and threw her onto the bed.

Then, in the blink of an eye, he jumped out of the window.

Jiang Liuyun's eyes widened. He recognized her; the woman now lying on the bed was the one he had arranged to seduce Li Jinzhi!

No, I fell into a trap!

Someone is trying to frame me!
