The man turned his back, and said in a hoarse voice with complete orders, with a businesslike tone.

Shangguan Hui didn't know why when he said this, a slight sense of loss and sorrow flashed through his heart.What is she expecting?Could it be that she has forgotten the harm and lessons of her previous life so quickly?Knowing that it would burn him in flames, he still pounced on it with moth wings.She has already tasted the severe pain of being burned by the fire once, so is it possible that she wants to experience it again?

The endless twists and turns in her heart did not show on her face, she hid her true emotions, and a warm smile jumped into her eyes.

"Who do you want me to help you investigate?" Is it him or her?

"Her name...Xiao Lingyue!"

Kacha, like a dull thunder struck her heart, Shangguanhui was about to ask carefully after the momentary shock, but the man only left her with a determined back, and he disappeared in an instant.

Shangguan Hui couldn't recover from the shock and stupefaction for a long time, standing in the windy window with only a thin underwear.If Qingluan hadn't closed the open window in time, it's no wonder she won't suffer from the wind and cold tomorrow with such a tossing method.

Even though Qingluan was slightly curious about the identity of the man who just entered, she was loyal to her duty as a guard and would not comment on her master's private affairs.So after a moment of doubt, he flew to hide in the corner again.

Shangguan Hui returned to the couch somehow, she opened her eyes and thought about it for a whole night, but she still couldn't figure it out.Why would he ask her to help investigate someone who's 'dead'?Could it be that he has some connection with Xiao Lingyue?Then why has there never been such a person in her memory?Asking her to investigate 'her'... Does this mean that he still doesn't know about Xiao Lingyue's death?

All kinds of mysteries are like a ball of thread that cannot be pulled apart, the more you pull it, the more chaotic it will become!

Perhaps, she should stop paying extra attention to that man who didn't even know his name.She will enter the palace in a few days, and what she will face after entering the palace is far more terrifying than poisonous snakes and beasts.She couldn't let other things mess her up.

"Miss, Mrs. Liu was sent back this morning!"

Qing'er told her the news she had just received.And Shangguan Hui seemed to have expected it long ago, her indifferent brows and eyes did not reveal the slightest surprise.

Naturally, she didn't have to feel surprised about what was reasonable.It's just that even if the Liu family is rescued this time, she will make the relationship between the Shangguan family and the Kong family worse. I'm afraid Shangguan Wenyong will not forgive her easily.Such an anticlimactic and reckless headed mistress could not bring the desired peace to the Shangguan family.If her prediction is correct, Shangguan Wenyong will punish her severely this time.

Mrs. Liu will reap the consequences, but she just needs to wait and see what happens!

"Hey, have you heard? When the master got angry, he demoted the eldest lady as a concubine!"

"Why haven't you heard of it? This matter has caused trouble in the mansion. Then tell me, who will replace her as the new mistress?"

"I guess it's Aunt Mu! She gave birth to Xiangye's only son, and she has done a lot of credit. She is pregnant again, and if she can get another boy in one fell swoop, her status will naturally surpass that of the eldest lady."

"Well, what you said makes sense. But Aunt Xiao, who took over the house last year, is also very much loved by Xiangye. Maybe it's her..."

In the courtyard, the lively discussions of several maidservants disappeared after Shangguanhui appeared.

Qing'er, who came out with Shangguanhui, glanced at the silent 'little sparrows', her face darkened, and reprimanded, "Stop talking about the master from now on. No one in the courtyard will listen to it." , I thought it was Miss who indulged you."

Shangguanhui glanced at Qing'er appreciatively.Yes, after staying by her side for a long time, Qing'er has become more and more considerate in handling things.Although she still can't be tactful, just this "carefulness" can help her a lot in the palace in the future.
