The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl

After Qinghe walked into the imperial study, she saw the emperor wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and sitting behind the desk. A handsome man with a serious expression was sitting on the chair by the window.

Qing He stepped forward and saluted, saying, "I, a humble woman, pay my respects to Your Majesty!"

The emperor stared at her for a moment, then said gently, "No need to be polite, sit down!"

Qinghe sat down on a chair beside her and looked at the two of them without saying a word.

The emperor glanced at Meng Jifei who was standing beside him. Meng Jifei cleared his throat and said gently, "Madam Jiang, I have something I would like to ask you for help with..."

Qing He said softly and clearly, "Master Meng, please speak!"

"I will take you to see someone in a while. Don't panic when you see him. Just ask him where he hid that thing!"

Qing He asked doubtfully, "Is this all I need to ask?"

Meng Jifei nodded and said, "Yes! But don't let him know your true identity! No matter what he says, you don't need to answer, just ask him where that thing is!"

Qing He turned to look at the emperor beside him. He nodded at her and said, "Qing He, as long as you can get the whereabouts of that thing from him, I will fulfill my promise last time and grant you a title, and allow you to enter and leave the palace freely!"

Qing He frowned and said, "But what if he doesn't tell me?"

Meng Jifei interrupted her and said, "No! When he sees you, he will definitely mistake you for someone else! In panic, he will definitely tell the truth! You just need to be careful and don't show your true colors."

After that, he told Qinghe some details...

Qing He was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay, I'll give it a try."

After the emperor heard this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, turned to look at Meng Jifei and said, "Okay, take her there!"

Meng Jifei stood up and said to Qinghe, "Mrs. Jiang, let's go!"

After Qing He bowed to the emperor and said goodbye, he followed Meng Jifei out.

The two of them left the imperial study, got into two sedan chairs, and headed south...

After about a meal's time, the sedan stopped in front of a side hall door guarded by guards.

Qing He got off the sedan chair and an old maid came to greet her, "Young Madam, please follow me!"

Qing He couldn't help but look at Meng Jifei who was standing beside her...

Meng Jifei explained: "Madam Jiang, you need to put on some makeup before you meet that person... Madam will dress you up exactly like the original owner!"

Qinghe nodded after hearing this, and followed the nanny into the side hall without saying a word.

After entering, a palace maid held up a set of clothes and said, "Young Madam, please let us help you change your clothes."

Qing He said softly: "I'll do it myself!"

She picked up the clothes and hairpins and came to the inner room. She shook the clothes open and saw that it was a precious and elegant dress and shirt embroidered with flowing clouds and gold, paired with a pair of tourmaline bracelets inlaid with gold. It was obvious that the workmanship was of the top palace standard. It seemed that the original owner was of very noble birth.

Qinghe dressed neatly and walked out.

When the old lady saw her, she was stunned at first, then her eyes moistened uncontrollably, and she said with a choked voice, "Resemblance! It's so similar!"

Qing He asked in a low voice curiously, "Who does he look like?"

The old nanny sighed and said, "The young lady looks exactly like the young lady of the Duke's Mansion!"

Qing He frowned after hearing this, "Then where is she now?"

The old nanny didn't answer. She wiped her tears and said, "Young Madam, please come over here and let me comb your hair for you."

Qinghe had no choice but to follow her to the dressing table and sit down.

The old nanny untied Qinghe's shiny black hair and carefully combed it into a lily bun for her.

She pinned a dazzling golden phoenix pearl hairpin on it, and put on a pair of daffodil-shaped earrings. After examining it for a moment, she said with great satisfaction, "This is how the young lady usually dresses!"

Qing He asked softly, "What's the name of the young lady of the Duke's Mansion?"

The old nanny was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice: "The young lady's maiden name is Qinglin."

Qinghe nodded and followed the palace maid out of the side hall.

Meng Jifei was waiting outside, so he led her to the west side of the side hall...

The two walked along a path through many courtyards, and after turning several corners they entered a courtyard with towering ancient trees.

Every door they passed along the way was guarded by heavily guarded guards, and finally the two of them walked into a windowless room.

A guard silently opened the entrance to the tunnel. Meng Jifei held an oil lamp and walked into the tunnel with his head bent.

Qinghe followed carefully behind, feeling a creepy feeling in her heart!

This was the first time she had come to such a place in her life, and she began to regret agreeing to help...it was really creepy!

There was a pitch-black tunnel with no end in sight. The further they went down, the dimmer the light became. They could hardly see anything except a pitch-black tunnel.

On the walls on both sides of the tunnel, there was an oil lamp hung every few meters, emitting a faint and terrifying light, which made Qinghe feel very uneasy!

Finally, Meng Jifei finally stopped in front of a cell in front.

He took the key from his waist and unlocked it, then bent over and walked into the cell.

Sitting on the bed against the wall of the cell was a prisoner with gray hair and disheveled face. He looked to be in his seventies or eighties.

Meng Jifei stood in front of him and asked, "Today is the fifteenth day again. Have you thought about it?"

The prisoner raised his head tremblingly, grinned at him with dim eyes and said, "Why doesn't Miao Zhenting do it himself?"

Meng Jifei stared at him coldly and asked, "Will you tell me or not?"

The prisoner said tremblingly, "I won't live much longer in this world anyway... Why should I tell you? Hahaha... Just let the Miao family give up on this idea! I will never tell you... Hahahaha..."

The old man laughed happily, but after a while, he suddenly started coughing violently!

He gasped and said, "I will take this secret to my grave! Although the Miao family has obtained the kingdom, without that thing, their throne is not legitimate and reasonable... No one can get what I can't get!"

Meng Jifei said coldly: "It doesn't matter if you don't say it! Anyway, when you get down there, the ancestors of the Dai family will never let you go! They will ask you why you colluded with foreign enemies, killed your brothers and sisters, and stole the throne!"

After hearing this, the old man looked up at Meng Jifei and smiled contemptuously, "I'd like to ask them! Why are they so partial? The throne should have been passed to me after my eldest brother's death! But why did they pass it to my eldest brother's son who was held hostage! I'm obviously more suitable to manage this country, but I have to watch the throne being passed back and forth in my eldest brother's family, and they just won't give it to me! They are all descendants of the Dai family, so why should they be the only ones who can be emperors...Haha, there is no such thing. No matter who ascends the throne to become emperor, it's all in name only!"

"Then why did you kill Princess Qinglin and her maid?"

The old man snorted coldly and said, "You can't blame me for this! If you want to blame someone, you can only blame my niece for being so unlucky! She could have married anyone else, but she had to marry the Miao family as a daughter-in-law! Her father-in-law and husband both hold military power, so we have no choice but to take action against her first... If you want revenge, you should go after the Miao family!"

Meng Jifei squatted down gently, looked into his eyes and said: "No, she only wants to find you! Dai Sheng, look who that is..."

The old man looked in the direction of his finger and saw a beautiful and elegant young woman walking in from outside. When she came to him, she asked gracefully, "Uncle, how are you?"

When the old man saw her, he was stunned for a moment, then he wiped his eyes with his hand and took a closer look. He was immediately frightened and shouted loudly: "There is a ghost!"
