princess regent lifted from her grave

Xiao He looked at the young lady with a frightened expression and nodded heavily.

After Nangong Ying received the affirmation, she murmured as if she didn't believe it,

"How could this happen? Before leaving, Guard Li repeatedly promised that he would get the treasure back. Why was he killed?"

Nangong Ying still didn't believe it, and there was still a glimmer of hope in her heart. She suddenly raised her head and continued to ask the maid,

"Xiao He, did someone else go to Qingfu last night?"

Xiaohe shook his head with difficulty, his voice choked with sobs.

"Miss, I went to the gate of Qing Mansion to identify them. It was Li who was guarding them. Their bodies were placed in front of the gate of Qing Mansion. They seemed to be waiting for someone from the government to investigate and investigate the matter clearly."

If Xiao He hadn't seen the bodies of Li Huiwei and others with her own eyes, she wouldn't be so horrified.

Nangong Ying's voice was anxious, "You mean people from the government will go to investigate, will they find us?"

Xiao He was stunned when he heard this, and seemed to realize the seriousness of the matter. As long as someone from the government went to investigate, they would definitely find out the young lady. Wouldn't the young lady also be arrested?

Nangong Ying stood up quickly and said in a panic, "Xiao He, go pack your things quickly. Let's leave the Holy Capital City quickly."

Xiao He looked embarrassed.

"Miss, without Li guarding them, what will happen to the safety of the lady? What will happen if we encounter a bad person?"

Nangong Ying frowned when she heard this and fell into deep thought. Someone in the government would definitely find them. If they didn't leave quickly now, it would be even more troublesome if they were caught by the officials. If they left, no one would protect their safety along the way. No matter how smooth they are, if they encounter bad guys, they are all women and have no power to resist.

After thinking about the pros and cons, Nangong Ying decided it was better to leave.

She glanced at the maid Xiao He again and had an idea in her mind. Xiao He was right. She couldn't leave the city because it was too dangerous. She had better wait for her father to send someone to come. But she still needed to change to another inn at this time.

He urged Xiao He, "The two of us will change our clothes, and you will put your hair into a new bun. From today on, you will take my place and deal with the people in the government."

Xiaohe's eyes widened immediately after hearing this, looking at the young lady with eyes full of disbelief.

The maid Xiao Liu who was hiding outside the door and eavesdropping was even more shocked. She didn't expect that Li Huwei was dead. She originally thought that she would no longer serve Miss Min who looked down on her. If she could follow the kind-hearted Second Miss in the future, maybe her life would be better. It's better,

However, these days, she seems to have seen some clues. The second young lady is not as gentle and kind as she shows. That is to say, Xiao He is too stupid to notice anything.

Just when Xiaoliu was thinking about what he should do in the future,

Suddenly, he stretched out a hand from behind and covered her mouth and nose, dragging her back.

Xiaoliu's eyes suddenly widened in fear, and she allowed the person behind her to take her away. She didn't know who was behind her, and the more unknown she was, the more frightened she was.

The effort of a stick of incense,

Nangong Ying and Xiao He in the room changed their clothes and packed their bags. Nangong Ying couldn't wait to leave. She wanted to change to an inn as soon as possible. As long as Xiao He was here to block her, they shouldn't check her again.

Nangong Ying cursed in her heart, isn't Sister Min the seventh aunt of Young Master Qing? How could he just watch helplessly as Li Wei and his party were killed by the people from Qingfu? It was really a white-eyed wolf.

Just as Nangong Ying was about to leave, there was a knock on the door.

The two people in the room were immediately shocked. Did the official move so quickly?

At this time, a voice came from outside the room, "This slave is here to bring tea to the second lady."

Nangong Ying and Xiao He both breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this. After Nangong Ying knew it was the maid Xiao Liu, her tone was sullen.

"I don't need tea here, please step aside."

She was frightened by the knock on the door just now, and she was already sweating behind her back. Now she is even more dissatisfied with Xiao Liu's attitude.

Xiao Liu outside the door was even more worried and broke into a cold sweat. If the tea was not brought in, her life would be in danger.

Xiao Liu calmed down and continued, "Second Miss, please have a sip of tea first. I just went to look for Guard Li. I don't know why I didn't find him. It's lunch time now, and I don't know if he is there." Go to the restaurant opposite and make a reservation for the lady in advance. If the lady doesn’t come back with escort Li, we will report it to the government..."

The door suddenly opened with a "squeak" sound.

A hand stretched out and said in a dissatisfied voice,

"Give me the tea."

Xiaoliu hurriedly handed over the tea, and the task she had been told was finally completed. As for whether the young lady drank it or not, that was none of her business.

Xiao He in the room is now dressed as a young lady. How dare she let Xiao Liu see it? Nangong Ying had warned her not to leak the news.

After the young lady left with the maids, she would stay in the inn. If an official came to find her, she would say that she had ordered everything, so that the young lady could be out of danger.

Although Xiaohe was extremely hurt in her heart, in order to keep the second lady safe, she believed that her efforts for the second lady were worth it.

After hearing that there was no movement outside the room, Nangong Ying was convinced that Xiao Liu had left, so she picked up her luggage again and was about to leave.

Xiaohe's eyes turned red and she called out, "Second Miss."

Seeing her like this, Nangong Ying suddenly had tears in her eyes and said gratefully, "Xiao He, I will never forget you in this life."

Xiao He quickly wiped away her tears, poured a cup of tea in a hurry, came to Nangong Ying's side, and choked with sobs,

"Second Miss, I will serve you for the last time. I will serve you again in the next life."

A trace of impatience flashed in Nangong Ying's eyes, next life? She doesn't want such a stupid maid.

In order to leave quickly, Nangong Ying took the tea cup from Xiao He's hand, took a sip, and handed it back.

then,

He opened the door and left without looking back.

Xiao He wiped her tears and closed the door gently. She waited for the officials to catch her and shouldered everything for the young lady.

The moment Xiao He closed the door, he didn't notice anything unusual about Nangong Ying.

It was approaching lunch time, and the guests in the inn, apart from going out to enjoy meals, stayed in their rooms to rest. There were not many people walking around the inn.

Nangong Ying's abnormality did not attract the attention of passers-by. When Nangong Ying was confused, a figure gently picked her up and helped her walk out of the inn.

Nangong Ying wanted to resist, but she had no strength. What was even more frightening was that she was speechless.

She could only let the people around her take her away from this place.

After she was thrown into the carriage, she completely lost consciousness.

The carriage galloped all the way to a house in the suburbs, and stopped at the back door.

The coachman stepped forward and patted the door.

When the boy saw the person coming, he asked him to wait, and then hurried to inform the butler.
