In the middle of the night, Rong Li slowly opened her eyes, tiptoed past Qin Mang, put on her shoes and walked out.

Not long later, the other person on the bed also opened his eyes. Looking at Rong Li's cautious back, a light flashed in his eyes, as she also wanted to follow closely behind.

What was she planning to do at this late hour?

However, as soon as he stood up, Qin Mang felt a wave of dizziness from his brain, and he fell to the ground. He glared at her, and his anger immediately rose. This woman, she actually drugged him!

After a few twists and turns, Rong Li finally found the place that her mother had resided.

Since the person who tried to assassinate her in the day said that she was the daughter of the palace master, then the twists and turns that she didn't know about should be on her mother.

According to the maidservants, Shen Jingbin's mother might have been Shen Qingxuan's birth mother, Aunt Sang, who had poisoned her.

The wooden door creaked open as Rong Li covered her nose and mouth.

The entire room was covered in thick dust, using the candle flame, it was covered with spider webs. Rong Li used her hands to explore ahead while looking around.

Judging from the furnishings in the room, it was likely that no one had entered this room ever since Mother Shen had died.

Tears from the past still hung on the candlestick, Rong Li lit the candle and searched the room inch by inch.

However, after searching the entire room, she could not find even the slightest clue!

Impossible, it was impossible that he did not have a clue!

Unknowingly, the sky had already begun to brighten, so Rong Li could only put away her hand in dejection, changed her clothes that she had prepared a long time ago, and returned to her own Apricot House.

Inside the house, Qin Mang's corpse was still lying on the ground.

Rong Li was surprised, but quickly laughed: "You want to follow me?! You deserve to be charmed! "

Then he tried to move him back to bed.

Rong Li lied back down on her seat and tidied up the blanket exactly like last night, as if nothing had happened at all.

In the morning, the unique winter sunlight shone down from the window onto Rong Li's body, only after hearing the movements of the people beside her did she pretend to slowly wake up.

Qin Mang rubbed her temples and sat up. Why did her brain become so muddleheaded after a long sleep? That's not right! What else happened after she fell asleep yesterday?

Looking at Rong Li, she immediately became clear-headed and asked with wide eyes: "Where did you go last night? Why did you drug me?"

After he stretched for a while, Rong Li slowly replied. decedent, what are you saying? We slept until now! Have you been sleepwalking? " As he said that, he reached out his hand and touched Qin Mang's head in a probing manner, and muttered, "There's no fever!"

Qin Mang knew that Rong Li would not easily admit to what happened yesterday, so she did not say much. However, this was exactly what Rong Li wanted. Since no one was paying attention to her, she could continue searching for clues.

After getting up, Rong Li once again stepped into her mother's courtyard, but this time, she was not in a rush to enter.

Yesterday, he had almost flipped through the entire room, but he hadn't found anything. Perhaps the evidence wasn't here?

Just as she was thinking about this, she was attracted by a bunch of ants moving in a line on the ground.

"Little ants, little ants, why are there no clues at all?"

The little ant seemed to understand her words and stopped in front of her feet.

"I won't be long in Shen Mansion, I can still drag this out for another day. If I don't find any clues regarding mother tomorrow, I really don't know when I'll be able to come here again."

If she rashly returned, it would definitely arouse suspicion from others. At that time, it would only increase the difficulty of her investigation.

"Little ants, can you help me find it? If you find it, I will bring you more pastries that are better to eat, okay?" Once Rong Li finished speaking, the ants seemed to have understood something and lined up, and scattered in all directions.

Rong Li could not help but sigh. As matters stood, she could only place her hopes on these little things.

After that, Rong Li made another trip to the cold still pool.

Thinking about it, the black-clothed man just jumped into the cold still pool's water yesterday without moving. If there was a problem with his brain and he did not seek his own death, then it meant that there was another exit under the cold still pool!

Rong Li wanted to investigate what was going on, but if she recklessly jumped down like that, she would attract people's attention! Furthermore, she had a criminal background. If anyone thought that she had committed suicide by jumping into a pool, she wouldn't be able to wash herself off even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

One day, Rong Li was wandering around the cold still pool, the sky was getting dark before she returned.

Just like last night, the two of them lay on the bed clothed in the same way, yet each of them had their own thoughts.

Halfway through the night, Rong Li heard the sound of her own breathing, and turned to look at Yue Yang.

Her thick eyelashes were like butterflies resting on flowers, delicate yet beautiful. Because she had an incurable disease all year round, her body had the fragrance of medicine, and her skin had a sickly white color. She was simply a pitiful and sickly beauty!

Rong Li took out a Calming Incense from her sleeve and lightly exhaled to him.

Just as he was about to leave, he never expected that Qin Mang, who was originally sleeping soundly, would actually open her eyes!
