Taking a concubine as a wife was not a crime. However, leaving a concubine in the family to be married off to someone else outside was a huge taboo.

Ministry Councillor almost lost his life after this matter was leaked out by the big house.

That concubine was also afraid as she wrapped herself with Ministry Councillor's money and escaped. The old Ministry Councillor was severely injured. He turned around and wanted to ask for forgiveness from his wife, but the eldest wife couldn't forgive him no matter what. She only brought a pair of children with her and ran back to their home in Jiangnan.

"This matter caused quite a stir in the capital, and it even became a joke in the past. "Afterwards, I didn't know where that person went, but this servant didn't know that he liked black dogs."

Xi Mengyao nodded, and did not say anything.

The few of them did not ask about this matter, but Xi Mengyao definitely did not know.

Because at that time, she was being bullied. She didn't even have the energy to care about it, so where would she get the energy to find out about this?

"However, since he is often outside the city, we might be able to take a look!" Xi Mengyao said as she rubbed her arm and stood up.

Hearing that, Song Chongjing stopped her: "No, that person has a bad temper. You might not be able to get anything out of him, but the goose is afraid of alerting the snake."

"How do you know?" Xi Mengyao was curious.

She didn't know much about other things, but talking to others made her feel somewhat confident.

"In the end. That was his private matter. He hadn't mentioned it for many years. If he were to poke it out, he would definitely be furious. Furthermore, right now, he is alone in the capital and loves to raise this black dog. As such, he will definitely treat this dog as a relative and will not casually reveal this information. "

"That's exactly why he would be in a hurry to investigate if any of them were missing." We still don't have a clue, why don't you go and try? " Xi Mengyao was suspicious, this person did not seem right.

"You're really optimistic." Song Chongjing said indifferently, he did not comment on this idea.

Xi Mengyao also did not express any opinions, but only suspiciously looked at him as she refused to stop her mouth: "I have always been an upstanding person."

Song Chongjing was always at the side. Although Xi Mengyao was like that, he was still determined, and when he spoke, her eyes never left the ground.

"You …" Xi Mengyao felt it was strange.

But who would have thought that at this time, Song Chongjing would say: "Actually, you don't have to do this yourself, you might as well give it to me."

"What can I give you? Can you figure it all out?" "I know that you're an adult with great ability, but I don't think I need to trouble you with this matter …" Xi Mengyao said, but then looked at him thoughtfully: "Or, you actually don't want me to know about that person?"

Although her words were spoken with a probing tone, her tone was extremely frivolous.

Xi Mengyao was like a rascal who only knew how to act, looking at Song Chongjing, she couldn't help but laugh shamelessly.

Actually she did not really want to investigate anything, but seeing that Song Chongjing had not said a single word previously and had done his utmost to stop the matter with the Ministry Councillor, she thought that this matter might have something to do with him.

Song Chongjing no longer spoke.

Xi Mengyao thought for a while, then turned back to look at her and said: "Actually I don't have any objections, I just feel that you are always hiding something from me, and I feel uncomfortable."

"I did not …" Song Chongjing was silent for a moment, but he was unable to say the words himself.

"If you really didn't want to hide anything from me, then why are you saying such words now? You weren't the type to meddle in other people's business in the past." Xi Mengyao, on the other hand, was an honest person.

Then, he shook his head and said helplessly, "You're still as unforgiving as ever."

As you know, I don't have much of a position in my family. If dad doesn't love me, then I can only protect myself. Unlike you, I have a bunch of capable people protecting me.

Xi Mengyao said, as she held onto her chest: "Your words, have hurt me."

Song Chongjing knew that she was just joking and could only shake his head.

After a moment of silence, he shook his head.

"In the end, this is also my fault. I originally did not want to say these things out loud, but …" After saying that, he looked at Xi Mengyao, and after a moment of silence, he said, "That person is related to the butler."

"Something to do with him?" Xi Mengyao was surprised.

Song Chongjing nodded and also sighed: "This person is a distant relative of Old Housekeeper. He was not really related to him in the past, but after his wife left with her two children, he had no one to rely on, and thus came to find the butler for help."

Old Housekeeper was soft-hearted for a moment, and also recommended him to Song Chongjing.

At that time, the man only thought that he could send people over to suppress them, but at that time, Song Chongjing was busy training and rejected him flatly.

But even though he refused. However, the butler would definitely be of help.

"I do not have any control over this matter. Now that this matter has occurred, if I were to ask him about it, I'm afraid that he would care about this housekeeper's kindness …"

Song Chongjing was silent, but Xi Mengyao understood.

"So there is such a relationship, the capital is small after all, any random person would be able to meet a relative of your butler." Xi Mengyao said.

Although she was dissatisfied, she did not lose her temper. "However, this is a good idea. Since there is a connection between us, we might have gotten it right."

Song Chongjing only nodded: "But even so, as I said before, you probably won't be able to get anything out of me."

After Xi Mengyao heard this, he immediately turned to look at Yu Han: "Can you ask around?"

"It won't be a problem for this servant to investigate, but didn't you just say that it wouldn't be good for me to do something …" Yu Han said, she turned and blinked her eyes as she looked at Xi Mengyao.

Initially, she only wanted to retort, but after Xi Mengyao heard this, she actually nodded her head seriously: "That's true, go later, don't mess things up again."

When she said those words, it almost made him angry to death, Yu Han could only stand at the side and do nothing for a while, in the end, she could only clench her teeth.

Although teasing was teasing, she had no choice but to think about it.

If there was no one else, he wouldn't be able to do this …

After thinking for a moment, she raised her head and looked at Song Chongjing: "Even the people in the house are not enough, do you know any appearance changing techniques? If I change my face and ask around, I'm afraid it will be a success. "

Song Chongjing did not care about her at all, and only shook his head. Seeing that, Xi Mengyao remained silent. Seeing that he was about to ask for someone else to do something, she waved her hand and said: "Your subordinates are not good either, don't forget, that is your butler."

After hearing this, Song Chongjing was also stunned, "But, there's no one else …"

"..." No, there's one! " Xi Mengyao thought for a while, but then her eyes suddenly lit up: "I know a person who coincidentally lives in the east side of the city, I believe he can do it!"

She was thinking of no one else but the Qiong couple that she had helped once before.
