"Hey!" Why are you staring at me like that! " Lan Xin pointed at me and asked with a guilty look on her face.

To be loud was to strengthen his courage, and the expression on his face was a natural expression of his thoughts.

My heart sank. It seemed that I had guessed correctly.

At first, I thought Lan Xin was a lively and innocent girl, but it seems that I was just faking it for a brief moment.

My face immediately turned cold. I stood up and looked down at her. I used a cold tone to say, "You should rest!"

"How can you be so temperamental just because you say so?" Lan Xin pointed at my nose, her face a mask of irritation.

My mood swings? They want to take someone's life for such a small thing, don't they hate me more than they do?

"If Miss has set her eyes on anything on me, just say it. Don't kill me for something." I snorted and prepared to leave.

"What do you mean? Have I ever harmed another person's life before? " Lan Xin's tone suddenly softened. It was no longer a tense exchange of blows. Instead, it was filled with doubt.

I didn't say anything as I stared at the jade pendant by her waist.

Lan Xin followed my gaze and touched it. Her face suddenly showed a little anger mixed with a smile.

"Where are you thinking? "Lady Tong was originally one of us!"

So it was like this! Since Lady Tong was one of them, why did she put on a guilty expression?

"Since it's your people, then what do you feel guilty about?" I sat back down on the kang.

"Liar isn't so good after all!" Lan Xin touched her ears with a silly smile.

I suddenly felt like I didn't know whether to laugh or cry! Who would have thought that there would be someone with such simple values at the side of the Lord of the Apocalypse? In my opinion, it's just surveillance, but it's still within the scope of deceit. Lan Xin is still feeling guilty about this kind of thing.

You were mocking me just now for being a villain, but now it seems that I am the one who is truly narrow-minded!

When Lan Xin saw that I didn't say anything for a long time, she poked me and said, "Hey! You can't be angry! "

"Nope." I pretended to look over my shoulder at Lan Xin. Her eyes were filled with the candor of a naked child.

I wonder what good would it do to leave such a man behind?

"Why did His Majesty send you to my side?" Looking at her white face, I was lost in thought. Unknowingly, I was able to ask her directly.

Lan Xin didn't seem surprised at all. It was as if this straightforward exchange was something she was familiar with.

"Mr. Wu sent me to protect you and keep an eye on you." "Lan Xin answered carelessly, but clearly."

"Who is Mr. Wu?"

Lan Xin pointed at me with a smile and said, "You don't even know Mr. Wu?" As if this was something very funny.

I glared at her but said nothing.

"Mr. Wu is one of His Majesty's most trusted advisers!" Lan Xin had a smile full of pride.

The sun had gone down, and the slanting moonlight came in through the window, illuminating only the coarse cotton quilt wrapped around her legs.

"It's getting late, I'll get them to bring some food in for you. You can rest here for today!" I still had a lot of things I wanted to ask her, but I didn't have the time to waste with her.

There was something strange about this Lan Xin!

In all likelihood, those who did such things were people who were meticulous and taciturn. This Lan Xin, on the other hand, did exactly the opposite. Not only did she have a lively and free personality, but she also carried a sense of naivety that she was ignorant of the affairs of the world. If this wasn't her true nature, then how deep should this person hide himself to be able to make such a lifelike manner, let me only a few words with her have a good impression.

"At least you have a conscience. Remember, I haven't eaten yet!" Lan Xin replied with a smile.

I turned around and looked at her carefully. She was still as straightforward as before. She didn't seem to have the heart of a city lord as she sat on the brick bed, allowing me to size her up.

Outside the door, Lan Lan and Lu Que were standing to the left and right of the door, guarding it.

"Go get her something to eat." I instructed Lan Lingyun to come. I turned around and remembered that there was no use for Lu Kui to eat, so I said, "Bring another meal to my room. I have something that I want to talk to the both of you about."

Lan Lingyun replied and hurriedly went to the kitchen to relay the message. Lu Que reached out his hand to help me into the house.

I took her good hand in mine, smiled at her, and we went into the house.

I reached out to grab the ink stick, and washed it with water. I rolled up my sleeves and slowly studied the ink stick.

"Young mistress, let me do it!" Lu Kou rolled up his sleeves and asked for help.

"Hurry up and sit down!" I smiled at her and pushed her back.

I wrote a letter to Shopkeeper Xiao about how my grandmother and I happened to meet Lan Xin and the young master on the way home, and how I brought her home. I also asked him to help me find out what kind of background Lan Xin had, and whether she was really a medical woman from the Hall of Wonders.

A letter sent from the outer court could be opened at any time as long as the mother was willing. I carefully read the contents of the letter and was sure that there wouldn't be any flaws.

When Shopkeeper Xiao saw my letter, he would naturally investigate the origins of that young noble and arrange a good background for Lan Xin.

He used the envelope and happened to be in time for Lan Ling to bring two or three maidservants in to set up the food.

"Miss, where should we put the food?"

Lan Ling thought I was the one who wanted to eat.

Since he had already done so, there was no harm in doing so. I pointed to the large kang beside the window where I used to sit. "Just put it there!"

A plate of bad goose paw duck letter, a plate of wild chicken and melon seeds, and a big bowl of dessert with sugar bird's nest were all sitting on the table, emitting steam.

Lan Lingyun brought me a bowl of porridge and placed it in front of me, offering me silver chopsticks.

"You should all sit down and eat!" I pointed to the empty seat opposite.

The two maidservants knew that I sincerely wanted them to sit down and accompany me to eat. They smiled as they thanked me. Lan Li went to get the bowls and chopsticks and sat down opposite me to drink some porridge.

"Do you know what Lan Xin is here for?" I smiled at the two maidservants.

The two maidservants looked at each other and nodded in unison. Lan Lingyun dipped her finger in the tea and wrote a 'King's Eye' on the table.

I smiled slightly. These two words summed up quite nicely. It was not because of the pair of eyes that Prince Qi had sent to monitor me. It was just that the words he had written were really not very good.

Talking to smart people was like this, saving time and effort.

Now that they know, and presumably know how to get along with Lanxin, I don't need to say anything more.

"You still follow the word 'Green Cock' now?"

Lan Ling smiled shyly. "There are a lot of things to do everyday, I can only write occasionally, and my progress is very slow."

I smiled and nodded. "In the future, I'm still counting on you to come back and write me a post after you become my wife!"

Lan Ling's facial expression did not change. She smiled and said, "Thank you for your auspicious words, thank you for your kind words!"

Lu Kui was amused by Lan Lan, laughing as he twisted Lan Li's face.

After we ate, we took the plates and plates off and washed our hands. The three of us sat around to make needlework.

Lan Li had Grandmother's shoes in her hands, just missing the East Pearl sewn to the top of the shoe. My forehead had been finished, and I was embroidering a small lilac on top of the ribbon used to tie the back of my head.

His grandmother's birthday wasn't something that everyone had to give away.

I finished embroidering the lilac flowers for decoration. I put away the needle and thread. The two maidservants also put down their work when they saw it.

"You're hurt, so it's not convenient for you to use your hands. You'll have to do some needlework first." The injuries on the Green Rogue's arm were too much for him.

I took the letter that had been placed on the table and handed it to Lu Kui. "Send this letter to the outer court tomorrow and have them send it out that day." Take a good look at our house to see if there are any smart little maidservants. Pick a few for me to see. You just need to let Lan Lingyun take the rest and let mother's little maidservants do the hard work. "

I still remember when Lu Ping left recommended Fangfei. He was also a pitiful child. However, since she is currently in my mother's room, I rashly asked her to come over. Not only is it eye piercing, it might not be a good thing for her.

The green bandit replied with a smile. He thanked her and went to rest.

Lan Ling followed me into the screen to change my clothes.

I saw her smile and ask, "What are you laughing at for no reason?"

Lan Ling shook the clothes that I had just taken off as she said, "This is the first time that Miss has not changed her clothes yet!"

It's true that so many things happened today that I didn't think of it for a while.

"Find a reason to go to the mothers at the door and ask them, who was that Liu Lang?" I whispered to Lan Li.

"When Miss went out today, I accompanied you out, so we chatted for a while. She said that Liu Lang had originally been invited by his wife for the sake of Madam Chen, but Aunt Chen had said that the doctor next to her was very used to using her. It just so happened that Huang Gongzhong, the man in the old lady's room, wanted to return home, so the old lady introduced him to the old lady. " "Yes," replied Green Buccaneer as he folded the clothes and put them in the closet.

The ones with the most information were the female servants who stayed in the inner chamber and served the entire day. The ones who knew the most were from the second branch of the inner courtyard. They could not only know the movements of the inner courtyard, but also know the situation of the outer courtyard.

Because of the special nature of this job, most of the people on duty were people who were trusted by the family. This mother of his was the mother of the old seniors by his grandmother's side.

According to her, her mother had brought this doctor into the mansion. Moreover, she originally wanted to place him by Aunt Chen's side, but by some strange coincidence, she found her way to her grandmother's side.

Then, was it his mother's doing to poison him? What did his mother want him to do to Aunt Chen?

"I'll find a way to talk to the people in my grandmother's room tomorrow and see if that's the case."

"Yes."

"I think I'll let Lu Kou sleep in your room tonight. Lan Xin was hurt, so it's not convenient for the two of them to live together with injuries. " I told Lan.

"Don't worry, xiaojie!" Lan Lingyun said with a smile, "Sister Lu Kao and I have already agreed that I will be on night duty tonight. She can just sleep in my room."

Outside the screen, Lan Ling helped me to bed, but I couldn't sleep.

It was as if a hand was pushing all of this to happen. One ring after another, I thought that I had taken control of myself, but it seemed as if I had been struggling against my will. Lift Aunt Chen, open a shop, reach an agreement with Prince Qi, control your father's outer chamber, send off Green Pine, and now your grandmother is poisoned, the heart of orchids enters the palace. All of this seemed to be within the expectations of others.

On the surface, it seemed that the one who was pushing the situation was the Prince Qi, but after I saw him with my own eyes, I felt that the young man in the white shirt didn't seem to be the type to create such a chaotic situation.

Then, who was it?
