The little girl's face was still tear-stained, and her face had gone from one side to the other until it was dark. She seemed to be frightened to the point that her whole body was covered in sweat. Trembling, she pushed away the hair stuck to her forehead. It was only after seeing that she looked exactly the same as Minister Hu did Ye Qing recognize her. It was Minister Hu's daughter, Hu Ning!

How could the daughter of the Shang Shu Manor fall to such a state?

"Tower Lord Ye." Hu Ning wiped away his tears and greeted Ye Qing.

She was really scared. Her pale lips were suffused with an abnormal purple glow.

Ye Qingxin's heart unexpectedly softened. She took out a green handkerchief from her sleeve, dipped it in water and handed it to her to wipe her face.

"Why isn't Miss Hu going to the stable?" Ye Qing intentionally lowered her voice and asked, "Madam Hu and Second Miss are over there."

However, when Hu Ning heard the news about Madam Hu and Hu Rong, he shook his head furiously and backed off, "No, I won't go over. "I'm afraid …"

Scared? Ye Qing was surprised.

Could it be that the rumors were true, that Madam Hu had treated her as a concubine?

It is well-known that Shang Shu and his wife do not like the daughter born from a concubine, but they always care about face and good to me and everyone else. Moreover, Madam Hu was famous for being quiet. It was hard for anyone to believe that she would do something so outrageous.

In the face of Ye Qing's astonishment, Hu Ning had a relaxed expression on his face, as if he had just survived a calamity. She faltered timidly and did not dare mention the deceitful schemes. Her hands trembled a little inside her sleeves. She lifted her skirt and turned to run away, but there seemed to be some injury on her ankle. Her palm-sized face was scrunched up into a frown.

Seeing that she was in so much pain that tears were rolling down her face, Ye Qing took the initiative to invite her onto the horse. "Where are you going? I shall send you on your way. "

Hu Ning refused even more, and she kept shaking her head and desperately waving her hands to refuse. "No, no, no, I'm not going anywhere. "Tower Lord Ye, you don't need to care about me …"

Her voice trailed off, and finally she began to sob again.

Ye Qing really did not have the experience of coaxing this girl, so he had a headache. After all, he couldn't just leave them alone. So what if he wanted to coax them?

"You, don't cry!"

Ye Qing was flustered by her crying and quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears away.

"I'm so scared!" he cried, taking a small porcelain bottle from his pocket and handing it to Ye Qing. I saw... He saw an attendant … The servant sprinkled the medicinal powder inside the grass. "

"He saw me …" We got tangled up a few times and he hit a rock... "

The more Hu Ning spoke, the more scared he became. His lips turned from a light purple to a deep purple as he held his chest and gasped heavily.

He waited for Hu Ning to calm down before gradually getting better. She leaned weakly against Ye Qing's horse, sobbing helplessly.

Ye Qing gripped the porcelain bottle, his expression unfathomable. He felt that something was off. Something was wrong...

"Where is the person you were talking about?"

Hu Ning pointed deep into the grass with his trembling finger.

Deep in the grass, there was indeed a young servant in navy blue clothes. The young servant's head had been cut open, and a large hole of blood had already solidified. Ye Qing stepped forward and touched his wrist. The corpse was already cold.

Hu Ning quietly made a background behind Ye Qing and silently shed tears. A pair of teary fox eyes stared at the side of Ye Qing's face, but no one knew what it was thinking.

Ye Qing finally felt the strangeness from Hu Ning. Why didn't the timid and cowardly young miss have a single girl by her side? It was much more dangerous to sit on the spot and cry than to run for help when you were out alone.

Besides, how could a frail girl, who had been ill for a long time, make an adult man fall to the ground with a few nudges?

"Miss Hu San is really good at acting."

Hu Ning, who was sobbing, was stunned: "Tower Lord Ye, you …" What are you talking about? "

Ye Qing peeled off the leaves and dragged him out, no longer caring about the crying Hu Ning.

Heh, what a joke. The days of suffering in the Shang Shu Manor were like the reflection of the moon in a mirror to her previous life. She knew when the injustice would be settled, and wanted to be a normal girl to live her life peacefully.

Ye Feihan, Shang Shu Manor, the past all went with the passing of her past life.

However, no one would let her go just because they didn't want to fight over it. Even though she was on the verge of death, Madam Hu still intended to use her as a cover to complete Ye Feihan's mission.

In an instant, Hu Ning suppressed the expression on his face and became abnormally calm. "Alright, I heard this person talking to a mysterious person in a cloak, saying that he had already done as he was told and fed medicinal powder to Lady Yi Huan's horse. And then... As you can see. "

The corner of Hu Ning's lips curled up into a smile. "He's been sealed up."

She had the intention to unravel the mystery and tell Ye Qing that the cloaked mysterious person was Madam Hu, but no one believed her without sufficient evidence. How could an ordinary woman who lived in a mansion kill a robust adult man?

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed it either. Fortunately, she had risked following Madam Hu and discovered her fox tail. Otherwise, the voting for Night Lianhe today would not have looked so good.

After Ye Qing examined the servant's death to confirm that it wasn't done by Hu Ning, he asked, "So you planned this scene using a strategy?"

"Then why did you come to join us? "Are you sure I would believe you and not suspect you of having a connection with them?"

"Don't look at me with your dirty thoughts!" Hu Ning sneered, "I just want to fight for a chance to live."

Ye Qinghan was rendered speechless by her words. Indeed, it was not a wise choice for Hu Ning to reveal his identity now. However, since he had chosen the Regent, he should show some sincerity. This act of pretending to be a girl would not work.

Ye Qing dusted off her clothes and said, "If that's the case, then what else does Miss Hu San have to say? You have to show some sincerity when working with people … "What do you think, miss?"

"You have a good plan." Hu Ning did not say it out loud, but neither did he say it out loud. "There are some things that I can only tell Luo Lingwei." If Miss wants to meet the Royal Concubine, you can send a card of your own, why are you looking for me? " Ye Qing sneered, "Does this lady forget that my daughter has a grudge with the wangfei?"

Hu Ning insisted on seeing Luo Lingwei. "As long as you are loyal to the Regent, how could the Princess possibly have any grudges with Bright Moon Tower? I can't pass the card to the princess consort, my parents don't get along with me, and Hu Rong has been staring at me all day long to find a wrong punishment. There must be no mistake at this time. "

Ye Qing silently looked at her for a moment before finally nodding his head.

"I really hope the three ladies will keep their word when the time comes." With that, Ye Qing got on his horse and rushed to the stable. The matter of the bottle had not been resolved and there was no time to waste with her.

Watching Ye Qing leave, Hu Ning found a stick from a nearby forest and limped deep into the woods.
