Dressed as a villain's stepmother, I use spiritual springs to raise cubs

Shu Jingyun only took one look, then stepped forward, covered the jade bracelet with the palm of her hand, and tightly covered the jade bracelet—especially the ray of red on the jade bracelet.

"Why do you have this thing? This thing is an ancestral property of the senior brother's family. Even the former master has never touched it a few times."

Sure enough.

This is what Shu Jingyun senior brother Zheng Ye has.

The one in the casino is him, and the dying person outside Chizhuang is also Zheng Ye.

After Xia Bai'an confirmed the matter, he explained it to her.

"At the beginning, I found a dying person outside Chizhuang. After treating him for one night, he left this thing and many precious medicinal materials and left in the morning of the next day. He also left a note saying that he still has a pair of children. If you meet a child who can recognize this jade bracelet in the future, I hope I can help you."

"Children?"

Shu Jingyun obviously didn't know about this.

Shocked, she clutched the jade bracelet tightly and wanted to take it away.

But then he seemed to think of something, and slowly put the jade bracelet back into Xia Bai'an's arms.

"No, since senior brother is willing to entrust this thing to you, I will never take it away again. As for the matter of his children, I will send someone to investigate. But I still want to inquire about the cause of senior brother's death..."

"It's better not to inquire."

Xia Bai'an took the jade bracelet back into her cuffs in a gentle manner, but actually put it directly into the depths of the space, she continued, "His Royal Highness King An lied about the place where Zheng Ye died, even if I asked him, he wouldn't know Will tell the truth."

"what for?"

"Before winter, the last time I saw Zheng Ye was at Chizhuang."

"..."

Shu Jingyun's heart sank.

Sure enough, he was lying!

The capital is so far away from King An's fiefdom, and it is even more difficult to walk in winter. If the senior brother would lose his life in front of Chi Zhuang, how could he die on King An's land.

"But, why did King An..."

"I don't know about this matter for the time being. But the deceased has passed away, and you still have the rest of your life to find the truth and the remains. What should be done now is to find his sons and daughters to protect them. "

Xia Bai'an reminded in a low voice, and felt that there were already people gathered around - maybe the guards saw them staying here for a long time, and today's tiger hurting people was intentional, and they were all worried that she and Shu Jingyun were discussing something rebellious matter.

She glanced around, lifted her skirt and walked away from Shu Jingyun, still talking loudly.

"Prime Minister's wife is also my stepmother. I will definitely come to take care of her when I have time. Mrs. Wei Guogong doesn't have to worry too much about this matter. You have been in poor health recently, so you need to take a good rest."

Hear this.

Shu Jingyun raised her head slowly, and sure enough, she saw a lot of people gathered around her.

This matter should not be publicized.

She tightened her fingertips, forcing herself not to think about the death of Senior Brother Zheng Ye, turned around and left from the other side, leaving Xia Bai'an only one sentence: "Thank you."

Thank her for seeing her senior brother for the last time, and let her know that there is something hidden about his death.

I also thank her for her kindness, for being trusted by her senior brother, and for leaving such an important clue.

Shu Jingyun hasn't been involved in things outside the capital for a long time, and now she is walking towards her tent step by step, and the memories of her time in the school with her senior brother came to mind, and she thought of his arrogance, saying that he would travel all over the mountains and rivers, and this life was worthwhile...

Shu Jingyun's heart, which had been silent for a long time, began to beat.

Senior brother, after all, he failed to gain real freedom.

That being the case, she must protect her brother's children.

"Nurse Chang." Shu Jingyun ordered.

"The servant is here."

"Go and investigate the path of senior brother Zheng Ye, and send trusted people to visit them one by one, to see if senior brother Zheng Ye has a loved one and can leave an heir. It must be kept secret, so that no one can easily detect it."

"Yes."

Nanny Chang narrowed her eyes, watching Shu Jingyun's usually indifferent eyes, with a sharp edge like a blade, and then slowly lowered her head.

Brother and master, but my wife's only freedom in this life.

Now that the two of them are leaving, I'm afraid it will also shake the stagnant heart of my wife.

……

Xia Bai'an returned to the tent.

Mo Che sat on the chief seat and wiped the blade, while Meng Ke and Ying Hongxiu actually knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

"I also ask the master to allow the concubine to go to the empress's side and comfort me."

"My lord, please allow Hongxiu to go. Your Majesty has supported me a lot. Now that something like this has happened, Hongxiu and Meng Ke should go to comfort me."

Both spoke with great sincerity.

Xia Bai'an lowered the door curtain and stared at the two of them.

"Such a thing happened to His Highness the Seventh Prince, and there is no shortage of you two aunts to comfort and accompany Concubine Degui."

Ying Hongxiu trembled and dared not speak, but Meng Ke cried and said, "Madam please allow me, concubine and empress..."

"Even with my wife's permission, even if you get to the door, you can only kneel and pray for blessings. It's impossible to see Concubine Degui, let alone flatter her. She has the heart to support the two of you."

Xia Bai'an walked up to the two of them, bent over, and looked down at them with impatience in his eyes, "You are just the pawns of Concubine Degui, her only prince has problems now, how can she take care of you?"

Meng Ke was speechless.

Ying Hongxiu buried her head even lower.

Xia Bai'an gently raised their chins again, and continued.

"If I were you, instead of thinking about how to curry favor with Concubine De Gui, I might as well think about how to live in peace and stability."

The two haven't reacted yet.

Xia Bai'an slammed the jaws of the two of them, and ordered the guards outside the door.

"Aunt Meng and Aunt Ying were discussing in private about Concubine Degui and His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, clapped their hands twenty times, and escorted them back to the tent."

"Wait...Madam, we actually..." Meng Ke was shocked.

"Your purpose is written on your face, do you still need to explain some nonsense to me with your mouth?"

Xia Bai'an sneered and went to the temporary closet next to him, rummaged through the clothes that needed to be changed, and only left a sentence, "In the future, I won't listen to what you say, but only see how you do it."

After finishing speaking, the two guards outside the door already covered their mouths and dragged them down.

The curtain closed again.

Mo Che stopped wiping the blade.

"Your methods seem to be much tougher than before."

"That's for your sake."

"..."

Mo Che frowned.

What does this mean?

Could it be that Xia Bai'an doesn't care about his own face now?

Xia Bai'an didn't continue talking, but went around the screen and changed the blood-stained clothes outside, changed into a new one, lay down with all the clothes, and prepared to take a nap.

Through the screen, Mo Che heard the sound of steady breathing coming from inside.

very subtle.

Xia Bai'an seemed to distance himself a little bit.

But she was still able to fall asleep so defenselessly by her side.

This made Mo Che feel even more uncomfortable.

His face was reflected on the blade.

Mo Che closed his eyes, the fierce tiger is before the wounding, when is Li Chen going to carry out the assassination?
