Xu Yixing looked at his father. That's right, how could his father care about him in front of that fake guy? The "Xu Yixing" had red eyes at the moment, and it looked like he had just cried.

"Xu Yixing": "Dad, forget it, let's hurry up and bury Madam..."

It was already hard enough for Old Man Xu to see his daughter crying, but now that his daughter had spoken, there was no way he would refuse. So he waved his hand and asked the coffin bearers to carry the coffin out.

When she passed by Xu Yixing, she stared at the person lying inside. Yes, it was her... The nanny's face was pale, but her expression was peaceful. Her clothes were neat and there was no visible injury. It seemed that the Sun family had already tidied her up.

Xu Yixing already had an injury in her knee, and after running all the way today, she was a little unsteady on her feet. But the pain in her heart was worse than the pain in her leg, and she was in so much pain that she couldn't breathe.

She stood at the gate of the courtyard, holding on to the door tightly with one hand, and only then did she resist the urge to leave with the coffin.

"Dad, Mom, I heard early this morning that something happened in the Sun Mansion, so I rushed here in a hurry. I broke the rules, please punish me." Since Nanny Bai's death is a foregone conclusion and he is powerless to change it, then the most important thing is to save himself.

Who has time to take care of this matter now? After all, they are not in the mansion. But Xu Yixing said this just to let Gu go back and not cause trouble for him. Otherwise, leaving the mansion without permission would be a crime after all.

As expected, when Father Xu saw that his little daughter was quite decent, he casually said, "You are also concerned about your sister," and then turned around to care about the fake. Grandson You was also beside her, carefully wiping her tears with a handkerchief.

Seeing Sun Ziyou again, Xu Yixing felt bitter. They were so sweet and inseparable in the first two days. Why did he take the wine brought by Si Wu and trick him into drinking it on the third day? He was still gentle and smiling when he was tricking.

Everyone in the courtyard followed the fake Xu Yixing out, and the Sun couple followed behind, chatting with Gu. Xu Yixing followed at the end and quietly told Siqin to find a way to see if there was anything on the beam of Nanny Bai's room.

When they were almost in the main hall, Gu suddenly turned around and said to the absent-minded Xu Yixing: "Don't follow me. Go home and tell your brother to come quickly. Tell him that Aunt Bai is sad that your sister has passed away, and ask him to come and comfort you."

Xu Yixing knew that Gu felt that he was a bit of an eyesore here, so it would be better to replace him with Yi Wen, who could also get closer to the young masters of the Duke's Mansion.

"Yes." Xu Yixing was not interested in this to begin with. When he heard her say that, he quickly left the team.

"Si Hua, go home first and tell my brother what mother said just now. I...I will be back right away."

Si Hua was worried about her young lady, and seeing that Si Qin had disappeared, she was unwilling to leave.

"It's okay. Si Wen is here. Everything will be fine."

Hearing her say this, Si Hua had no choice but to go back.

There was no one around, Xu Yixing held Si Wen with one hand, pressed his chest tightly with the other hand, and breathed hard. "Si Wen, tell me, what's going on."

Si Wen looked nervous and quickly explained the situation: "After you left two days ago, Nanny Bai told me that if there was any change in the mansion in the near future, I must find a way to find you."

It was indeed so... It was me who killed Aunt Bai...

After I left that day, Nanny Bai must have gone to see the fake Xu Yixing, and must have discovered that there was something wrong with her, which is why she gave Si Wen such instructions at night.

"Anything else?" Xu Yixing's mind was confused, like a blind man walking in the fog, feeling dizzy from time to time.

"No more. After that day, Nanny Bai has not come to the front yard to serve. I thought she and the young lady were still quarreling, so I didn't pay attention. Who would have thought that today..."

"But is there anything else unusual? Did she see anyone doing anything yesterday?"

"I am serving in the front yard. I don't know what is going on with Madam."

Xu Yixing was in despair. It seemed that they must have discovered the flaws of Nanny, which led to her being killed.

"One last question. Where are they going to bury Aunt Bai's body?"

"She said that Mammy has an acute illness and might be contagious, so she has to go get a fever."

"Burn?" Destroy the body and eliminate all traces! We can't wait any longer, we must stop the team of people carrying the coffin!

Xu Yixing's heartbeat quickened, and he immediately felt his body regain strength. He quickly ran in the direction of the coffin-carrying team, and did not forget to tell Si Wen: "You go back, be careful of Si Wu..."

Si Wen felt very nervous when he heard the last few words flying in the air. Recently... things are indeed a bit uneasy.

Xu Yixing chased after him through a side door of the Sun Mansion. He had only run a short distance when he felt like his chest was going to explode. "Damn it, Xu Yiyan, don't you exercise regularly? Damn it!"

While Xu Yixing was busy cursing, he just walked out of the alley when a carriage flashed by. Xu Yixing had no time to avoid it. With a thud, he hit the wall of the carriage and fell to the ground, unconscious.

"Yi Yan, Miss Yi Yan? Wake up..."

It was a male voice, I seemed to have heard it before, but not familiar... Who was it?

Xu Yixing slowly opened his eyes and felt pain in his head, hands, legs and feet.

"The Seventh Prince?" She didn't even care about the pain. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw that face. Who else could it be but the Seventh Prince?

No! The last time I saw him was at the horse race two years ago, but Xu Yiyan didn't go at that time. I have no idea whether they knew each other or when they met!

But I clearly heard him calling Yi Yan’s name just now, and he called it so... kindly?

Well, it seems we know each other.

The seventh prince's name was Lu Anyuan, and his mother was just one of the emperor's many concubines who died early, so he was not very favored by the emperor and was just an unfavored prince. However, Lu was the emperor's surname and was extremely noble, so Xu Yixing did not dare to neglect him.

"Your Highness, your humble servant greets you!" Xu Yixing quickly stood up and saluted. When she realized that she was alone in a carriage with the Seventh Prince, she felt that her time was up.

It’s over... I’m going to be beaten to death.

If my father knew about this, let alone the unappreciated Xu Yiyan, even if it was Xu Yixing, if my father knew that a single man and a single woman were in the same room with a prince, he would definitely kill me and clear my family!

Lu Anyuan seemed to see her panic and despair, and comforted her: "Miss Yi Yan, please rest assured, no one saw what happened here just now. I helped you up because I was worried that something might happen to you. There are guards around here, no one will know."

"Your Highness... why are you here?"

"I just heard that something happened in the Duke's Mansion. Even General Xu and Madam Gu came. I happened to be nearby, so I came to see what happened."
