Bai Ye entered the underground secret chamber of the Bai family's ancestral mansion and found that someone was staring blankly at a withered plant.

"Grandpa." Not long after Bai Ye entered, beads of sweat began to form on his forehead.

"It's so hot here. Grandpa, how long have you been here? Hurry up and go up."

Bai Qing touched the ruined plant that was rooted in the fiery rock and shook his head silently.

"Grandpa, this cherry fruit is really a strange thing. It has been withered for fifteen years, but it still looks like a broken plant. Its branches are still intact."

Bai Qing turned his head, "This Flame Stone in this secret chamber, find a day to move it out. Although it has already been used for a thousand years, the remaining value will still be of great use in medicine."

"Yes, Grandfather." Bai Ye's reserve was already drenched.

"Grandfather, just let Jiegeng do whatever she wants. Wouldn't it be better to let her do whatever she wants in the last remaining Shinian?"

"Even you were bribed by that kid?"

"Grandfather, I just hope that Jiegeng won't have any regrets."

Bai Qing suddenly became silent.

"Let's go." Bai Qing did not give Bai Ye a clear reply and left the secret room.

The next day.

"Jiegeng!" Shihan suddenly appeared in front of Jiegeng's bed and pulled hard at Jiegeng. "What time is it already? Why are you still sleeping!"

"Elder sister. I have nothing to do today, so please let me sleep a little longer. " Jiegeng opened her eyes and immediately fell asleep again.

"Could it be that what did you do last night? You don't usually sleep that much!"

Jiegeng shivered and immediately got up, "What can I do!"

Avoiding Shihan's gaze, Jiegeng immediately instructed, "Shao, get me some face washing water."

"Miss, I have already prepared it for you. It was also placed on the table earlier." Shao hurriedly started to serve Jiegeng and change her clothes.

"Princess, I also feel that Miss is exceptionally strange today. No matter how I scream today, I can't wake her up. Furthermore, when I came in the morning, there was a box of mooncakes on the table for no apparent reason."

"Alright, Shao, you can go down first." Jiegeng immediately chased him away.

Jiegeng did not pay attention to Shihan's scrutinizing eyes. After washing up, she sat on the table and picked up a bun and passed it to Shihan, "Don't look at me anymore. Do you want to eat?"

Shihan immediately opened Jiegeng's hand, "So you knew your lover last night! That day was not just like three days and autumn, you two did not see each other for a while. It was like three years apart! If it wasn't for the fact that we were always together, why wouldn't we be able to get up this morning?"

As Shihan spoke, she suddenly became shocked," The two of you, last night, didn't... that happen, right? "

Jiegeng immediately choked on the porridge water in her mouth." What nonsense are you talking about!? "

"It's good that you didn't."

Looking at the breakfast table, Jiegeng had no appetite at all.

"Elder sister, why did you come looking for me today?"

"Didn't you ask me about Jiang Wanxin yesterday? I know why she was punished."

" Oh?"

"This matter is related to the Right Prime Minister, Hsiang Xuanfei."

"Mr Hsiang?" Jiegeng immediately thought of the gentle man.

"Do you remember when we left the capital and touched Jiang Wanxin and Hsiang Xuanfei?"

"Yes." Jiegeng carefully thought about it, "Could it be that Wanxin and Mr Hsiang?"

"Smart!" Shihan used her hands to support her cheeks. "Jiang Wanxin has always been the precious jade in the hands of the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager has always pointed at Jiang Wanxin as a contribution to the consolidation of Jiang family's prosperity. At this moment, even this delicate and delicate girl was about to resist. I have misjudged her in the past. This Jiang Wanxin is also not bad."

"No matter what, Jiang Wanxin was imprisoned because of Mr Hsiang. Older sister, are you so excited?"

Shihan immediately became serious, "How is it? Do you want to join?"

" Join what? "

" Helping a lover will eventually become a family! That Jiang Wanxin is your friend, don't you plan to help?"

"Why are you suddenly so concerned about this matter?"

"I'm interested in all the things that can cause the Empress Dowager to create trouble." Shihan looked at Jiegeng's conflicted expression, "If you do not dare to stir up trouble with me, I will go myself."

Jiegeng hurriedly pulled Shihan, "Who says I do not dare!? Even if it is for Wanxin, I will also go!"

"Then let's go! "Shihan was secretly happy that she had succeeded in provoking him.

If it was not for Duan Shuang supporting her from behind, Shihan would have had this intention. She didn't dare to really do anything. After all, it involved a large family and an official appointed by the Imperial Court. No matter how much Shihan messed around, I know what I'm doing. If she went overboard, it would only implicate her parents. Now that he had brought Jiegeng along, Duan Shuang wanted to ignore her. It was no longer possible.

Duan Shuang, don't blame me for giving you trouble if you make things difficult for Lingfeng!

Within Zhen'an King's Mansion.

Ouyang Lingfeng personally threw a pile of folders onto Duan Shuang's table. "All of these have been taken care of."

Duan Shuang smiled and ordered his men to distribute them.

Immediately after, Duan Shuang's gaze landed on another stack of papers.

Ouyang Lingfeng immediately interrupted, "You're counting on me. This time, no matter what I say, I won't help you anymore."

Duan Shuang picked up one of the books and threatened, "I didn't say anything. Do you have to be so frightened?"

"Let me see these trivial matters. I might as well punish me quickly. Once it's settled, everything will be settled!" Ouyang Lingfeng picked up a cup of tea and directly gulped it down.

"Help me investigate a person."

"Who?" Ouyang Lingfeng asked angrily.

Duan Shuang spat out a few words.

Ouyang Lingfeng's expression immediately changed. "You're not joking, are you?"

Looking at Duan Shuang's serious expression, Ouyang Lingfeng knew that he had asked for nothing.

"Hurry up and reason with me. The law won't forgive you. It's time for you to atone for your crimes."

"You are really ruthless!" Ouyang Lingfeng shook his head and said, "Shihan and I have just gotten through death. You want us to be separated from each other?"

"She will definitely go with us." Duan Shuang smiled and said. "It is a blessing to the Great Yan to be as strong as a man."

Ouyang Lingfeng was frustrated, "You really have nothing more to say!"

Jiegeng and Shihan were pacing back and forth outside the gate of the Jiang family.

"Sister, you are not going to go in directly, are you?" Jiegeng looked at the tightly shut door and was slightly flustered. The two of them rushed over without any plan. Wasn't it too unreliable?

"Of course not!" Shihan retorted, "This will alert the enemy. Although we know the reason why Jiang Wanxin was locked up, we can't just not understand their relationship."

"Then why are you here now?" Jiegeng was stunned.

"Are we going to sneak in?"

"How do we get in? I don't want to be like you, you know Qinggong!"

"Silly sister, let's go to the back door first." Shihan immediately pulled Jiegeng and left.

"Yue, Qi!" When they reached the back door, Shihan lightly called out twice and Yue and Qi immediately appeared in front of them.

"The two of you will be in charge of Jiegeng."

"Is this okay?" Jiegeng had never secretly barged into someone else's house before. At most, he would leave his courtyard through the small hole. Therefore, although she had some resistance in her mouth, Jiegeng was still very excited in her heart.

"Younger sister, follow me, no problem!" Shihan was full of confidence.

Qi and Yue drove Jiegeng and arrived at the Jiang family house in a short while.

"Alright, Jiegeng, follow me this way!" Shihan immediately pulled Jiegeng and ran around the Jiang family.

Qi and Yue immediately retreated.

"Older sister, why are you so familiar with each other?"

"Nonsense. Before doing this kind of thing, naturally we have to find the way first!"
