I accidentally became the Eighth Lady in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 126 Old 8 builds a secret building

The Eighth Brother would behave like this just to confuse the Fourth Brother and the others. Also, his Imperial Father, the Eighth Brother, remembered things from his previous life. He could ignore what the Fourth Brother did to him, but he could not help but resent what Kangxi did. He was even unwilling to call him Imperial Father. The relationship between him and the Fourth Brother was just a winner and loser. Besides, he had also cheated the Fourth Brother in order to get more benefits. With the Fourth Brother being so petty, how could he not take revenge?

But there was really no way to reconcile the relationship between him and his royal father. He would always remember that his royal father scolded him for being ambitious in front of everyone, and also said that his mother was a bitch from the Xinzheku. He could be scolded in any way he wanted, it was not like he had never been scolded before, but he could not accept being scolded on his mother. If his mother was really a bitch, then who forced his royal father to be his mother!

Although his mother was a maid in Xinzheku, she was definitely not the lowest person. She was from a noble family. It was only because her family broke the law and was implicated that she was sent to Xinzheku. If we really judge by the nobility of status, who can be as precious as his mother? Did his father forget that his mother was also his cousin? If it weren't for his imperial decree that demoted his mother to Xinzheku, how could she have been a noble for so many years? How could everyone in the harem look down on his mother? If it weren't for him, who erased all traces of his mother's life experience, how could she become an orphan?

In his previous life, Old Eight also knew about it by coincidence, and because of this, he became more and more crazy afterwards. He felt that he was also qualified to fight for it, but he didn't expect that his royal father's words would directly bring him down to the dust!

Lao Ba thought that even if it happened again, the entanglement between him and her royal father would never be resolved!

Although Lao Ba sat in front of Yunyan's fake grave day and night, he was not idle, but continued to practice the martial arts secrets left by Yunyan. He chose a top-level internal energy method. Although the speed may be a little slow at the beginning, once he has mastered it, there will be few opponents for him in this world!

Seeing that they could not persuade him, the eight of them could only build a thatched hut next to Yunyan's fake grave. Originally, Laojiu and Laoshi wanted to build it with blue bricks and red tiles, but they were stopped by Laoba, who said that he did not need such a good residence, he just wanted to accompany Yunyan for a while! After the thatched hut was built, Laoba moved in and pretended to guard Yunyan's grave!

It was precisely because of Lao Ba's point that the villagers of Xinghua Village gradually contacted Lao Ba again. They felt that Yunyan's tragedy was something Lao Ba did not want or was unwilling to see, otherwise Lao Ba would never have been able to do this.

The fourth, ninth and tenth brothers stayed in Xinghua Village for half a month but could not stay there any longer. It was not because they did not want to stay, but Emperor Kangxi issued three imperial edicts in a row, summoning them to return to the palace. The ninth and tenth brothers had no choice but to return to the capital city full of resentment!

It’s not that Kangxi’s imperial edict didn’t ask the Eighth Brother to go back, but the Eighth Brother was simply too lazy to care. He stayed here because he had more important things to do!

So after the Fourth Brother and his men left, the Eighth Brother's men appeared from the dark, but they only appeared at night, following the Eighth Brother's orders, and transported up all the things that Yunyan left at the bottom of the valley. They also rescued orphans and some capable beggars!

During the time that Lao Ba was in Xinghua Village, he relied on the things left by Yunyan to rapidly build up his own power, and also gave it a name, Anlou. As the name suggests, Anlou does business in secret. In the beginning, it only took the business of inquiring for information. Later, with the development of Anlou, three years later, Anlou had become famous among the people. Even some officials in the government had heard of Anlou. From then on, Anlou did not only sell information. As long as the money could be paid, any task taken by Anlou had never failed!

As a result, Lao Ba also gained enormous power in the dark. He could be said to be the emperor in the dark. However, the money is a matter for the future, so let’s not talk about it now. Now Lao Ba is still practicing hard, otherwise no matter how many ideas he has, it will be in vain. What’s the use if he can’t keep them?

A hundred days after Yunyan's death, Lao Ba stood in this familiar yet unfamiliar yard. Mingming was exactly the same as when Yunyan was here, but Lao Ba felt that it was different. Lao Ba spent a lot of money to restore Yunyan's home to its original state. Even every flower was planted in the same position, without any deviation!

Outside the yard were Lao Ba's men, and none of them went forward to disturb them. These few months were enough for them to understand what their master felt towards Miss Yunyan.

Lao Ba heard the footsteps behind him, turned around, and saw that it was the village chief. He said reluctantly: "Village chief, please help me take care of this house!"

The village chief looked at Lao Ba's reluctant expression and his brows turned sad. He felt sorry for Lao Ba and Yun Yan. They were obviously a perfect match, but fate played tricks on them and separated them by Yin and Yang!

The village chief hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "Mr. Jin, I will arrange for my wife to come and clean every now and then!"

The corners of Lao Ba's mouth slightly lifted up, revealing a smile. Although Lao Ba was smiling, there was no smile in his eyes. He said with gratitude: "Then I'll trouble the village chief!"

Lao Ba handed the key to the village chief. The village chief took it. Lao Ba looked at the familiar house with nostalgia again, then turned and left. The village chief followed him to the outside of the yard and watched Lao Ba ride away skillfully on his horse. The village chief looked at the lonely figure and sighed a little. He didn't know if Lao Ba would come back to Xinghua Village again in the future. After all, men in the world are fickle. Maybe he would come back in one or two years, but what about ten or twenty years!

The village chief sighed, shook his head, and then turned around and locked the door. This was not only Lao Ba's remembrance, but also the remembrance of the people in their village! Such a good doctor Yun is gone just like this, it is really a pity!

Lao Ba, who was riding away on a horse, didn't know that there was a white figure on the mountain not far away, watching them. It was Yunyan, whom he had been looking for for a long time. Yunyan was indeed not dead!

Yunyan stood on the tree branch, watching Lao Ba's leaving figure, her eyes full of reluctance. She knew exactly what Lao Ba had done in the past few months, and she also knew what he had done secretly!
