“Young master, what are you doing?” Cheng Qi walked around the entire garden and finally found him in a remote courtyard.

Looking at Li Tianyan walking around the courtyard with an object said to be called a compass in his hand, Cheng Qi’s face was full of curiosity. Li Tianyan must have something novel.

“Deploy the Spirit Gathering Formation.” Li Tianyan stared at the compass, calculated for a long time, then threw out a set of formation flags, and said with both hands, “Get up.”

The forty-nine formation flags that were thrown stood up in response. From different directions, Cheng Qi saw that there seemed to be no pattern in the arrangement of these flags, but after looking at them for a long time, they made people felt extremely mysterious.

As the formation flags settled, the surrounding spiritual energy was gradually extracted by the formation. After a while, Cheng Qi discovered that the spiritual energy in the courtyard became much richer than other places. He couldn’t help but exclaim, “So this is the Spirit Gathering Formation, it’s so powerful.”

Li Tianyan saw him standing in the courtyard and inhaling constantly. He wished he could inhale the spiritual energy through his nostrils like air, so he felt funny, “It’s not done yet.”

Then Li Tianyan raised his head again. Stepping into the room, he took out several formation disks and began to arrange the formation eyes in the room until the Spirit Gathering Formation was completely formed. The spiritual energy that was still very strong in the courtyard just now suddenly disappeared. Cheng Qi looked at Li Tianyan with an inexplicable expression.

“You sit there and try it.” Li Tianyan pointed at the position in the center of the formation and gestured to him.

“Oh.” Cheng Qi walked to the place pointed by Li Tianyan and sat down cross-legged.

Li Tianyan took out a spiritual bead and placed it on the central formation plate. Cheng Qi immediately noticed a spiritual energy that was ten times thicker than before was surging around his body, making him very comfortable in it.

Li Tianyan, who was standing aside, could feel the spiritual energy overflowing, and a slightly satisfied smile appeared on his face. After coming here for so long, he finally no longer had to endure the thin spiritual energy.

After setting up the two Spirit Gathering Formation eyes, Li Tianyan still felt unsatisfied, so he took Cheng Qi to wander around the protective formation outside to reinforce several weak points in the formation. At the same time, he and Cheng Qi dismantled and analyzed the formation in front of him—an entry-level protective formation structure.

The formation that was originally thought to be extremely mysterious was explained in a simple way by Li Tianyan, and it was like a layer of mystery had been unveiled. Cheng Qi immediately had some understanding of the protective formation in front of him.

.

The two of them were very busy around the protective formation here. Li Wu and Xiao Liu were not idle either. One of them took the list and hurriedly drove back to Jincheng to collect the items that were still missing in the villa.

And the other one built a wooden fence in the backyard far away from the residence for the hens to set up camp.

Xiao Liu discovered that there was a large flower field in the Villa. Many expensive flower species should have been planted before to please the owner. However, the Villa had not been inhabited for a long time, and this flower field also lacked maintenance. Withered and dry, Xiao Liu thought that the young master didn’t seem to like flowers, so why not use this flower field to grow vegetables.

On the first day after moving to the villa, several people were busy planning their next life in the villa. Until dinner, with the seasonings prepared by Li Wu, and Xiao Liu’s little experience, the cooked dishes tasted… Not so good, at least he could eat it, and Li Tianyan finally took a few bites of green vegetables with his chopsticks.

The main courtyard of Li Mansion.

“Madam, we already have found it.” Mother Liu, who was personally serving Hong Man, walked in from the outside in a hurry.

“How is it?” Hong Man couldn’t wait to ask.

“I asked someone to ask a few servants who had served madam Yin. They were all sent away by the midwife on the day madam Yin gave birth. They were not in the house during the time when the child was born.” Mother Liu added, whispering in the madam’s ear.

“Sure enough.” When Hong Man heard the result, her fists in his hands tightened again. Duan Qin did something wrong that night. She was unconscious because of difficulty in giving birth to the child, and the servants around her were busy looking after her, who would have thought that someone would take advantage of the chaos and swap the two babies.

“But one girl said that in addition to midwife, there seemed to be a maid named Xichun in the madam Yin’s delivery room at that time. When the old maid found Xichun’s residence, she had died more than a month ago.” Mother Liu mentioned another suspicious thing.

“I went to the inner courtyard to check. After the death of madam Yin, Xichun was assigned to work in the big kitchen. But more than a month ago, she suddenly left the Li mansion and died in the countryside not long after.”

Hong Man immediately smelled something unusual in Mother Liu’s words, “Could it be that the person who poisoned Tianyan was this Xichun.”

“The old maid also feels the same, the timing is right. Two days after the young master was poisoned and fell into a coma, an old couple claimed to be Xichun’s parents came to redeem her from the house.”

When Mother Liu learned that the third young master might be the madam’s biological son, she felt extremely regretful. If they had been willing to investigate when the third young master was poisoned, they would have discovered it in time and things wouldn’t be irreversible like now.
