She knew that she had to find the truth as soon as possible to stop the conspiracy from continuing.

"Qingqing, go and have a rest first. I will handle this matter." Bai Qianqian said to Qingqing.

Qingqing nodded and left.

Bai Qianqian returned to the room, sat at the table, and began to think about her next move.

She knew that she had to be careful and not let anyone get hurt again.

At this moment, the assassins in the palace, the serious injury of the emperor, and the ring with the secret mark of the royal family, all of these were like a fog, shrouding her heart.

She must find the truth and uncover the conspiracy.

And all this has just begun.

Bai Qianqian sat at the table with a determined look.

She knew that she was facing a complicated palace conspiracy, and if she was not careful, she might end up in an irretrievable situation.

But she also understood that she could not retreat because she had family and friends behind her who needed her protection.

She began to think carefully about everything that had happened tonight, from the attack on the carriage to the appearance of the men in black, and then to the assassination in the palace.

All of this seems independent, yet seems to be inextricably linked.

Bai Qianqian decided that the first thing to do was to find out the identities of the men in black and their purpose.

He reached into his sleeve and pulled out a yellowed book.

This book is about intelligence and secret organizations of various countries.

This book was given to her by King Chen. It has been kept in the space symbol and has never been read.

Bai Qianqian hopes to find some clues about the man in black through this book.

She opened the book and began to read it carefully.

Time passed minute by minute, and her eyes moved quickly on the pages, looking for possible clues.

However, several hours passed and she still found nothing.

Bai Qianqian rubbed her tired eyes and felt a little depressed.

She knew that she couldn't rush things and had to remain calm and patient.

She took a deep breath and decided to put down the book for a while, go for a walk in the yard and change her mind.

She walked out of the room and into the yard.

It was late at night and the yard was quiet, with only the sound of insects chirping.

Bai Qianqian walked on the path, letting her mind relax.

Just then, she suddenly heard a low cough.

The sound came from a corner of the yard where there was a small shed, usually used to store sundries.

Bai Qianqian's heart moved.

She remembered that a servant named Lao Zhang once lived there.

But he's been gone for a long time.

Who would be there at this late hour?

She decided to go over and take a look. She approached the hut cautiously and heard someone talking inside.

She leaned close to the crack in the door, trying to hear the conversation inside.

"…You must be careful. This matter is of great importance and you must not let anyone know about it." said a low voice.

"I know, I'll be careful." another voice replied.

Bai Qianqian was shocked, she recognized both of these voices.

One was her uncle, the Left Prime Minister Bai Qingsong, and the other was actually her father, the owner of the Bai Mansion, Bai Qingbai!

She couldn't believe her ears.

She knew she had to find out what they were talking about.

She took a deep breath, then opened the door and walked in.

"Dad, uncle, what are you doing here?" Bai Qianqian asked coldly.

Bai Zhentian and Bai Qingsong turned around and saw Bai Qianqian, with expressions of surprise on their faces.

"Qianqian, why are you here?" Bai Qingbai asked.

"I heard some noise and came to see what was going on." Bai Qianqian replied, her eyes moving back and forth between the two of them. "What are you talking about?"

Bai Qingbai and Bai Qingsong looked at each other, and then Bai Qingsong said, "Qianqian, you don't need to know about this yet. You just need to know that we are doing something that must be done for the Zuo Xiangfu and for our Fengyun Country."

Bai Qianqian frowned. She knew that she couldn't believe their words easily.

She has to find out the truth before she can make a decision.

"I'll figure it out." Bai Qianqian said, turned around and left the cabin.

She knew that her investigation had just begun.

Bai Qianqian left the hut, the doubts in her heart as heavy as the night.

She knew that her father and uncle must be hiding something, and it all seemed to be related to tonight's attack and the events in the palace.

She decided to uncover the secret no matter what.

She returned to her room and sat down at the table again.

She closed her eyes and tried to collect her thoughts.

She knew that she couldn't act hastily and had to have a clear plan.

First, she needs to find out more information about the Man in Black.

She remembered that there were some clues about secret organizations mentioned in the book.

She decided to look through the book again to see if she could find some useful information.

She opened the book and began to read it carefully.

This time, she was no longer in a hurry to find the answer, but read each page slowly and carefully, trying to find some clues from it.

Time passed by minute by minute, and her eyes moved quickly on the pages of the book.

Suddenly, she saw a description about a secret organization called "Shadow".

The organization specializes in assassinations and espionage, and is said to have close ties with the royal family.

Bai Qianqian's heart moved. She felt that this organization might be related to tonight's events.

She decided to investigate the organization in depth to see if she could find some useful clues.

She closed the book, stood up and decided to look for Qingqing.

Qingqing is her maid and also her friend.

She knew that Qingqing would definitely help her.

She walked out of the room and came to Qingqing's room.

Qingqing had already fallen asleep, but Bai Qianqian still decided to wake her up.

"Qingqing, wake up." Bai Qianqian gently shook Qingqing awake.

Qingqing opened her eyes and saw Bai Qianqian. She immediately sat up and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?"

"I need your help." Bai Qianqian said, "I need you to help me investigate a secret organization called 'Shadow'."

Qingqing was stunned, she knew this name.

She had overheard her father and uncle talking about the name.

"Miss, are you sure you want to investigate this organization?" Qingqing asked, "I heard that this organization is very dangerous and has close ties with the royal family."

Bai Qianqian nodded, "I know, but this matter is very important to me. I need to find the truth to stop this conspiracy from continuing."

Qingqing looked at Bai Qianqian. She knew that Bai Qianqian would definitely do what she decided to do, so she decided to help Bai Qianqian.

"Okay, miss, I'll help you." Qingqing said, "Where should we start investigating?"

Bai Qianqian thought for a moment, then said, "Let's go find my uncle first. He may know something about this organization."

Qingqing nodded, and then followed Bai Qianqian to find her uncle.

Bai Qianqian and Qingqing came to Bai Qingsong's room and knocked on the door.
