Su Chen's slightly tired face appeared in front of the two of them, they were all startled, then thought of something, and looked at each other strangely.

"...Let's have a good burial."

Su Chen raised his eyes and naturally did not miss the expressions of the two of them. His eyes were dark and he did not explain.

Chen Ling hesitated, he felt a little regretful, he should have asked the butler when he came here just now, if all the maids on duty in the east yard were replaced by servants yesterday.

Su Chen didn't rush, went straight to the window and sat on the recliner. His eyes were slightly closed, hiding the light in his eyes.

Hong Mingshou probably thought of Chen Ling together, forced himself to calm down, gritted his teeth and pushed Chen Ling. He whispered: "Go and call someone."

After he finished speaking, he walked into the room without looking sideways. Chen Ling wanted to confess a few words, looked at his old friend's back, and sighed silently.

Su Chen listened to the slight movements over there, and slightly pursed the corners of his mouth, although his temper was unruly. He has never been merciful to the enemy, but he has never killed innocent people indiscriminately.

The appearance of the little maid was really an accident, but if he pursued it seriously, he would be hard to escape.

Thinking of this, Su Chen slowly opened his eyes, the scenery in the courtyard was still the same, but there was a hint of meaning slowly emerging from the bottom of his eyes.

The little maid is just a mortal, but this Bianjing is not a place for mortals, he has not noticed it all the time, he is really careless.

When Hong Mingshou entered the room, he felt apprehensive, stared and glanced around, but didn't see the tragic scene he imagined, looked out of the window in bewilderment, his eyes accidentally glanced over the bed curtain, saw something vaguely, and left immediately past.

"..."

He stood by the bed for a long time without any response, and the little maid was lying on the bed, if it wasn't for her pale face, she would have looked as if she was asleep.

After his gaze was fixed on the little maid for a long time, Hong Mingshou bent down with a complicated expression, and gently touched her veins.

No pulse, no breathing, literally dead.

But. Why no trauma?

Hong Mingshou has practiced martial arts for many years, and his internal strength is strong. When he put his finger on it, he already knew that the little maid had no internal injuries. Now that he is close, he didn't see any external injuries. How could he not be surprised?

He always believed that the little girl was humiliated and died by Su Chen, and even disregarded the identity of the other party, and justly condemned her...

Today, the little maid has no injuries, and she doesn't look like she has been humiliated at all. How could he not be puzzled?

Chen Ling led people into the courtyard, but he didn't see Hong Mingshou, his heart sank suddenly. The housekeeper clearly said that there is no maidservant in the east courtyard, why?

He didn't have time to think about it, so he quickly brought someone into the house, and just about to order his servants to find someone, he saw Hong Mingshou walking over with one in his arms.

"……this?"

Chen Ling didn't see anyone else, and he was relieved at first. He had already guessed who the person in Hong Mingshou's arms was. But when he saw that little maid, his pupils tightened, is he alive?

Hong Mingshou had a complicated look on his face. He shook his head and was speechless when he met Chen Ling's suspicious gaze. Chen Ling thought for a while, and went forward to check it out. Hong Mingshou whispered, "I'm out of breath."

Chen Ling's hand stopped in mid-air. Looking at Hong Mingshou, he changed the direction and placed it on the little maid's nose.

The servants withdrew from the room and stood carefully under the window. Someone was quite courageous and raised his eyes to look at Su Chen.

They have been serving in the outer courtyard, and occasionally they will be transferred to the east courtyard when guests come, so they have met some dignitaries.

Yesterday, they heard that a distinguished guest had come to the east courtyard. His identity was mysterious. His lord greeted him in person in the middle of the night, with a rare gentle attitude. Everyone guessed whether it would be a noble person next to the emperor.

Unexpectedly, last night, Xiao Linzi who was next to the housekeeper came back and said that the pearl in the madam's yard was taken by that nobleman. Then he died without knowing why.

Pearl is by Madam's side. She looks soft and has a sweet mouth. They used to covet it secretly. I look forward to being favored by the master in the future and giving them pearls as wives.

How did this die?

Everyone felt a little scared, and more sighed. Even the most favored maid around the wife died, and the masters didn't dare to say anything. It seemed that the nobleman was more noble than they imagined.

Today, they were called by their master to serve them. They couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to sneak a look at this nobleman.

Looking at them, they were a little puzzled. The man was half lying on the reclining chair with a calm face. He looked only sixteen or seventeen years old. He could not be called handsome, but he could also be said to have sharp edges and corners, and his facial features were correct. Master?

Chen Ling frowned and went out the door, and in a blink of an eye, he saw the servants outside staring there motionless. Turning his head to see Su Chen, his heart trembled immediately, and he immediately reprimanded in a low voice: "What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you hurry up and get ready?"

The servant hurriedly stepped back, Chen Ling looked sideways at Su Chen, his eyes were deep, doubts were stalked in his chest, he wanted to ask but didn't know how to ask.

Su Chen's gaze was fixed on the thick vat in the courtyard, but he seemed to notice Chen Ling's expression. Lazily said: "When are you leaving?"

Hong Mingshou handed over the little maid to his servants, and when he came back, he just heard Su Chen's words, so he collected himself and said, "Let's go now, the chariots and horses are ready."

Su Chen responded, and casually asked, "Where do we meet?"

Hong Mingshou said: "Xinglong Temple, hurry up and arrive in half an hour."

Chen Ling continued: "I still have business to do today, so it's not convenient for me to go out of the city. After you leave the city, all arrangements have been made. You can rest assured."

Probably because he didn't want to attract attention, Chen Ling parked the carriage at the back door. When Hong Mingshou went out, he walked a few steps quickly, carefully observing the surroundings, and opened the door to let Su Chen get in the car after he found nothing.

Chen Ling watched the carriage go away, and turned around until he could not hear the sound of horseshoes. The back door closed behind him with a small sound, but his heart skipped a beat when he heard it.

Hong Mingshou sat sideways opposite Su Chen. The space in the carriage was not too large. If the distance between them was too close, it would be a bit uncomfortable for him.

On the other hand, Su Chen's expression was calm, as if he didn't feel anything, his eyes were slightly closed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Hong Mingshou was still thinking about that little maid, and when he looked at Su Chen, his eyes were a little thought-provoking, and he didn't realize it.

The carriage shook slightly, and Su Chen suddenly chuckled, "Are you always looking at me like this, are you afraid that I might misunderstand you?"

When Hong Mingshou heard this, knowing that Su Chen had noticed him, his face changed slightly, and then he blurted out, "I thought you would explain."

Su Chen said: "Are all the people in Tiandihui as sentimental as you?"

Hong Mingshou frowned, "What do you mean?"

"You didn't really want to help me by bringing me to Bianjing," Su Chen looked towards Hong Mingshou, "You are filled with righteous indignation over the death of the little maid, and I wonder whether you are really righteous or not. madness?"
