It's almost time to wear it. The soft beauty relies on the child-bearing system to favor her

Mrs. An did not think much about it and said jokingly with a smile: "When the mother-in-law saw the beautiful girl, she said she looked familiar."

Su Wanti walked up to Madam An and bowed, "Is Madam An feeling better?"

Mrs. An did not answer, but just stared at her cheek with a serious expression.

Her hands were shaking slightly, and she grabbed Su Wanti's hand eagerly.

Su Wanti was surprised by Mrs. An’s reaction.

When she saw Old Madam An staring at her, an idea came to her mind.

Her eyebrows and eyes look very similar to her father's. Her eyebrows are clearly defined and have gentle brow peaks, which makes them look longer and more delicate.

Her eyes are like apricots, round and full, with slightly upturned tails, giving her a lively look.

The pupils are distinctly black and white, clear and bright, and there is always a spring of pure water in the eyes, sparkling and shining.

Su Wanti felt that at this moment, Madam An seemed to be looking at others through her.

She said softly, "Madam An, do you really think I look familiar to you?"

Madam An nodded, her eyes solemn, "It seems like an old friend."

Could the old friend she was talking about be her own father? Su Wanti thought silently.

Su Wanti put her hands on her waist, where the red silk thread and red gold pendant anklet left by her father was hidden.

"I have something here..." Before she finished her words, a maid ran in hurriedly and said:

"Madam, the imperial edict has arrived."

"Ah?" Everyone in the room changed their expressions instantly.

Thunder, lightning, rain and dew are all grace from the emperor. Until the moment the imperial edict is opened, no one knows whether it is a blessing or a curse.

Madam An and her mother-in-law became visibly panicked. Su Wanti silently lowered her hands and stepped aside.

Today is not the right time, Su Wanti thought to herself that she would take out the anklet left by her father tomorrow and let Madam An identify it.

Mrs. An walked out and looked at Shang Xingjian for help.

Shang Xingjian lowered his eyes in deep thought. He had asked secret guards to monitor the movements in various places in the capital, and he had not heard of any extraordinary behavior by the An family.

Besides, if the emperor issued an order to punish the An family, the queen mother would definitely stop it. If she couldn't stop it, she would also tip off my aunt in advance and would not leave her unprepared.

After Shang Xingjian thought it over, he nodded to Mrs. An, signaling her not to panic.

Mrs. An felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, she saw Su Wanti walking out behind her.

He hurriedly took her hand and apologized, "Miss Su, I'm so sorry. Let's stop here today. I'll ask you to come and treat my mother-in-law tomorrow."

"Where does Miss Su live? I'll arrange a carriage to take you back. Tomorrow I'll bring the reward and come to thank you in person."

Su Wanti shook her head gently and was about to refuse, but Shang Xingjian pulled her behind him and said to Madam An, "Aunt, Miss Su also lives in the An Mansion. You can live with me."

Mrs. An was slightly startled, but her mouth was faster than her brain, and she blurted out, "Live together? Live in the same room with you?"

Realizing that what she said was wrong, she immediately covered her lips and coughed lightly to hide her embarrassment.

Su Wanti shook off Shang Xingjian's hand and said hurriedly: "No need to send me off, I live here..."

Shang Xingjian interrupted her words, "Auntie, you misunderstood. Please arrange a separate room for Miss Su. Okay, go and get busy. Madam An is waiting."

Mrs. An turned around and saw that her mother-in-law had been supported by several maids to the door. She hurriedly said a few words to Shang Xingjian, patted her son on the shoulder, and turned to leave.

Su Wanti remembered the way out of the house, and after leaving Madam An's yard, she prepared to leave secretly.

Shang Xingjian saw her intention, stretched out his hand to block her way, and whispered: "Miss Su, you can't leave."

Su Wanti raised her eyes, "Why?"

"You have to change your appearance for me every day."

"I'll come again tomorrow, or you can come to my house to see me tomorrow."

"I don't have time to wait for you to come over, or to go to your house."

He held Su Wanti's wrist tightly, lowered his eyes to look into her eyes, and said, "Also, I got some new news that is related to the disappearance of Miss Su's father. I wonder if Miss Su wants to know."

"If you insist on leaving, then I will assume that you don't want to know this news."

His eyes were gentle and the corners of his lips were raised, like a gentleman of honor, but Su Wanti sensed a hint of danger in his gentle smile.

[Host, you have aroused the possessiveness of the target person!] The system watched the show.

A hint of surprise flashed across Su Wanti's clear eyes. She exhaled lightly and said, "Okay, I'll go with you."

Nanny Qin, who served Madam An, stayed.

After receiving the secret letter from the young master, Madam An ordered people to clean up her backyard.

Now Nanny Qin took Shang Xingjian and the other two to that house.

The house was just behind Mrs. An's yard, separated from the main house by a dense and verdant bamboo forest.

There is a shallow stream flowing through the bamboo forest. This stream is artificially created, with round and smooth pebbles underneath. The water is clear and sparkling with light.

It is the beautiful scenery of the stream flowing silently around the bamboos.

A few people walked through the path in the bamboo forest and came to an exquisite and tidy two-story building.

This small building is the residence that Mrs. An prepared for Shang Xingjian and the other two.

There were only two rooms in the small building. Now that Su Wanti was going to move in, Nanny Qin immediately sent someone to set up a bedroom.

Curtains, bedding, jade pillows, cushioned carpets, bronze mirrors, clothes hangers... the maids and nannies were quick and efficient, and within a quarter of an hour, all the necessary items were in place.

The small building is staffed with two maids who clean the house. They are both reliable people selected by Nanny Qin. They only work on weekdays and will never step into the small building without the master's order.

After Nanny Qin left, Shang Xingjian closed the door tightly, then took Su Wanti's wrist and went upstairs to his room.

An Jing followed behind and said, "Master, you haven't told me what you are worried about these past two days?"

"I have something important to discuss with Miss Su, please don't disturb me." Shang Xingjian left this sentence and then slammed the door shut.

[Wow, host, this time he wants to eat you.] The system is happy to watch the fun.

"Force shutdown." Su Wanti gave the order.

There was a "whoosh" sound in her mind, and the system went silent.

"What do you want to do?" Su Wanti looked alert and crossed her hands to protect her chest.

Shang Xingjian turned around, still looking like a gentleman. He kept a safe distance from Su Wanti and did not do anything out of line.

"Don't worry, Miss Su. I'm not a pervert. I won't do anything to you if you don't want me to."

He walked to the desk, sat down, and then looked at Su Wanti with sharp eyes, as if he wanted to see through her.

Su Wanti became uncomfortable, put down her hands, and said, "You said you got a piece of news about my father's disappearance. Is that true?"

Shang Xingjian nodded and said, "Before I tell you this news, I want to ask, does your father know anyone from the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion?"

The Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery?

The original owner had no memory of the "Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion", and she shook her head.

At the same time, turn on the system in your mind.

[Is he that fast? Tsk, he's not cured yet, host, do you want to exchange for a few more male valerian pills to consolidate the effect? ​​]

"Stop! What you thought didn't happen. Now check all the information about the Loyal and Brave Marquis' Mansion for me."

[Okay, wait a moment! The system is searching...]
