Qi Jin had nightmares as soon as she closed her eyes this night, and she didn't even sleep well. When a smear of white appeared in the east, she couldn't lie down anymore, and immediately got up to wash up and go out to find someone.
"Miss, you got up so early?" Xiugu was sleeping in the side room next to her. When she heard the movement in the room next door, she immediately came over, "Your complexion is so bad, why don't you sleep a little longer."
Qi Jin said, "Where can I sleep, I will go out to find her again."
"Miss, it's not fully dawn yet, even if you go to find her, you don't know where to look for it." Xiu Gu said helplessly, "Sit down first, and I'll get you breakfast. It’s not too late to go out and look for the meal.”
"Okay." Qi Jin looked at the sky and knew that it would be hard to find someone to go out with this matter, "Did Xi'er ask anything yesterday?"
Aunt Xiu lowered her head and said, "I asked a few questions, but the servants gave me the perfunctory words. Children are forgetful, so I'm sure they won't ask in a few days."
Qi Jin sighed, "Fortunately, I didn't tell him his mother's name back then."
"Miss, don't worry too much." Xiu Gu said.
"How could I not be worried..." Qi Jin shook her head and smiled wryly. Now she regretted letting Qi Ruoshui leave without finding out anything.
Xiugu didn't know how to persuade her, after all, this matter was a knot in the hearts of their mother and daughter that could never be untied.
"Go and see Xi'er." Qi Jin said, sending Xiu Gu away, "I'll go out after breakfast."
Xiu Gu sighed in her heart, "Okay."
Qi Jin simply ate something and went out. She actually didn't know where to find Qi Ruoshui. She went to a few inns last night but failed to find out. Today she planned to go further afield.
When she just went out, the figure hiding in the dark moved.
The fish-belly white in the east was broken by a golden light, and the sun gradually shrouded the ancient city wall.
squeak—
The door of a remote and elegant house opened, and two women came out one after the other.
Shan Shi always liked to sleep back in the cage, but this morning he was forced to go to the Huguo Temple, he was already very unhappy in his heart, and there was no joy on his face.
"In recent years, you have become more and more lazy. I remember that you were not like this in the academy." Qi Ruoshui was wearing a white magnolia flower dress with a light blue background. Originally, such a dress was more suitable for a little girl, at her age It's really not suitable, but it doesn't look awkward when worn on her body, on the contrary, it makes her more beautiful, charming and natural.
"It was the past. Am I still a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl?" Shan Shi said angrily.
"The older you get, the less you can be lazy." Qi Ruoshui said with a smile.
Shan Shi's face became even more ugly, "I'm younger than you, don't you get old at every turn."
Qi Ruoshui just smiled and said nothing, "Hurry up and get in the carriage."
"Why do you want to go to Huguo Temple?" Shan Shi reluctantly followed behind her.
"Just walk around." Qi Ruoshui said with a smile.
Shan Shi glanced at her suspiciously, why did she think that Qi Ruoshui didn't seem like the kind of person who would wander around the Huguo Temple? Although he was suspicious, he followed her into the carriage and went to Huguo Temple together.
Sitting in the carriage, Qi Ruoshui had a slight smile in her eyes. She knew that someone was following her all the time. It seemed that Lu Yaoyao was suspicious? Or did he learn her identity from Qi Jin
No matter which possibility it is, it is the same for her.
…
…
Ye Zhen was shocked when she learned of Qi Ruoshui's identity, and asked Wu Chong to find out who Qi Ruoshui was today.
Not long after, Xue Lin came over to answer Ye Zhen in person.
"Ma'am, Medical Officer Qi went out early to look outside. Every inn went to ask if there was a woman with different eyes." Xue Lin said.
"The eyes are different?" Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows, what does this mean
Xue Lin said, "My subordinates secretly overheard how Medical Officer Qi described it. That woman's eyes were one black and the other amber, which was different from ordinary people."
"There are people like this?" Ye Zhen asked in surprise, she was suddenly curious about what that Qi Ruoshui looked like, wouldn't it be strange if a person's eyes were different
"Ma'am, Doctor Qi seems to be very anxious to find that woman." Xue Lin said, "However, according to my subordinates, she is looking for a needle in a haystack. I'm afraid it won't be easy to find."
The capital is so big, there are not many inns, not to mention that the woman may not live in an inn.
"Go and invite Medical Officer Qi into the palace." Ye Zhen said in a low voice, she would be exhausted sooner or later if Medical Officer Qi went on searching like this, she already roughly guessed that the person who was with Mr. Shan was Qi Ruoshui.
It's just that maybe Qi Ruoshui will know the news about Huangfuchen from Mr. Shan.
Xue Lin went out of the palace to invite medical officer Qi, and Ye Zhen also sent someone to the secret guard to inquire about the news, not knowing what happened to the two portraits.
Now it can only be confirmed that the person on the portrait is the guard of the Xiliang Priest Hall, but the rest is still unknown, and the Witch King is still a mystery to them.
"Your Majesty, please see Mrs. Fu." Dai Mei came in and said.
Ye Zhen was slightly startled, and let Eunuch Fu come in to talk,
"Your Majesty, the Emperor invites you to Qianqing Palace to discuss matters with you." Eunuch Fu saluted Ye Zhen with a smile.
Mo Rongzhan asked her to go to Qing Palace at this time? Ye Zhen was shocked in her heart, knowing that there must be something urgent.
After arriving at Qianqing Palace, Ye Zhen went directly to the Imperial Study to find Mo Rongzhan.
"Your Majesty, what's the matter?" Ye Zhen thought that there was news from Huangfu Chen, and seeing Mo Rongzhan's gloomy face, she thought something had happened.
Mo Rongzhan gave Ye Zhen a secret letter on the table, "Shan Shi has been in Beiming Kingdom for the past six months, not in Qi Kingdom at all."
"What?" Ye Zhen blinked, a little unresponsive, "Mr. Shan is not in Qi?"
"Huangfuchen was taken away in Qi State a month ago. May I ask, how did Shan Shi in Beiming State know about him? How did he see with his own eyes who took him away?" Murong Zhan said in a deep voice. Said.
Ye Zhen was shocked, she couldn't figure out why Mr. Shan would lie to her.
"What is Mr. Shan going to do?" She asked in a low voice, "Since she didn't see it with her own eyes, how would she know... how to draw the guards of the Priest Hall?"
"That's what I want to know." Murong Zhan said coldly, "I have sent someone to invite her into the palace."
"Do you want to question her face to face?" Ye Zhen asked.
Mo Rongzhan stared at her for a while with dark eyes, "She is your teacher, you can ask her."
"Okay." Ye Zhen nodded, she also wanted to know why Mr. Shan lied.
"Don't believe her in everything just because she is your teacher." Murong Zhan said in a low voice.
