Chapter 22
Through the gap in the rockery, Xiaoyun looked at the brightly lit backyard illuminated by torches by the guards at the moment, and asked hesitantly, "Second Miss, where are we going?"

"Let's go separately and play by ear."

After hearing Shui Xinrong's words, Xiaoyun looked back at her in amazement, wondering if she heard it wrong, "Separate?"

Shui Xinrong understood why Xiaoyun was surprised.For the past two years, the two of them have been inseparable, advancing and retreating together in everything. It is unreasonable for Xiaoyun to say that they want to separate at such a tense moment today.But Shui Xinrong believed that she would be able to persuade her, so she said, "Think about it. If the two of us go together and we are arrested, wouldn't there be no hope of getting out? It would be different if we separated. At least one was caught, and there was another one who knew what was going on and could be rescued."

Xiaoyun listened carefully, and felt that her words made sense, so she nodded at her, "Second Miss, be careful."

Shui Xinrong smiled lightly, and ordered: "You go first."

Xiaoyun frowned resignedly, "It's better for the young lady to go first, and the servants to finish."

"Xiaoyun, are you not listening to me?" Shui Xinrong turned her back angrily, and said viciously: "If you don't leave, if you are arrested, I will ignore you."

Xiaoyun had no choice but to obediently leave the rockery first and walk towards a dimly lit path.

Shui Xinrong walked in the opposite direction, walked briskly, and walked through the back garden.And the fiery red light from the torch illuminated her with nowhere to hide.Wrapping her right hand tightly with her left hand, she always believed that once she entered the palace, having six fingers on her hand would be the source of her troubles.

"How is it? Did you find it?" In the open space in front of him, a young man in a red dress asked the guard who bowed to him with a cold expression.

Shui Xinrong hurriedly leaned sideways on the rockery, holding her breath and concentrating.Isn't that person Qing Wang?

The guard with a dignified face did not dare to look up at King Qing, lowered his head, and calmly replied, "Go back to the lord, the villain has not found the two women that King Yu said."

King Qing flicked his robe sleeves angrily, and said angrily: "The thieves have all appeared in the palace now, and I haven't been able to find them for this king. They are really trash."

The corners of Shui Xinrong's mouth raised slightly, and she murmured: "Young King Qing, how arrogant, at this moment he finally knows that there are still things in this world that he can't do anything about."

The guard's folded hands trembled unconsciously, big beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he tried to calm down, "My lord, calm down. Although the Six-fingered Snitch was not caught this time, according to King Yu, the person who stole Xiaohaiyang It's a woman, not a man."
