Meng Zixian watched for a moment, then frowned. She quietly moved behind the man in black, not too far away from him.

"Sorry, it really wasn't me. Please don't look for me again!"

"It's not that I don't want to save him, really!"

The man was crying and begging in a low voice, his tears flowing. As he put the paper money into the brazier, he kowtowed. The sound was very loud, and in the dark night, the sound of his forehead hitting the ground was very clear.

Meng Zixian could tell who it was, but after a moment of hesitation, she decided not to enter.

Noble Huai cried very hard, and his stuttering was unclear, "Don't try to entrust the dream to me anymore, I'm begging you, don't disturb me anymore."

When she went to visit someone from the Huai Clan today, she was already sick. In the end, she came to the Imperial Concubine's chamber to pay her respects at such a late time. She must have a guilty conscience.

She did not think that it was Honorable Huai who killed Imperial Concubine Rong, but there must be a connection.

Meng Zixian had an idea, although it wasn't a very kind one.

She turned around and went to Imperial Concubine Rong's bedroom. She rummaged through her clothes and took out a few pieces of white silk.

Hanging the white silk on her body, she performed a lightness technique and floated past him.

Venerable Huai cried so hard that he became entranced, and didn't notice the people behind him. Meng Zixian was a bit speechless, and flew past him once again, which attracted Venerable Huai's attention.

"Who?" Noble Huai's face was covered in tears. He was immediately stunned and his face paled.

Meng Zixian quickly changed her position, and while she was turning her head, she flew past Venerable Huai, just in time to catch a gust of wind.

Venerable Huai felt chills all over his body. When he turned around again, the fire in the brazier had actually been extinguished. She screamed and threw the paper money in her hands all over the ground.

"No, don't look for me!"

"I really, really did not do it on purpose!"

Honorable Master Huai stood up, begged for mercy, knelt down, and cried his eyes out.

Meng Zixian couldn't bear to see her like this. However, because she was hiding the truth, she had no choice but to follow her original plan.

This time, Meng Zixian directly floated over in front of noble Huai, who was dumbstruck. He was so frightened that he suddenly lost his voice and wanted to faint, but he actually held on.

"Why did you want to harm me!"

Meng Zi's voice was ethereal, as if she was speaking into someone's ear.

"No, no!"

"I really didn't mean to stay silent. That eunuch, I don't know him either!"

Meng Zixian heard the important news. Eunuch?

"You really don't know, do you?"

Noble Huai was on the verge of death from his tears. He kowtowed nonstop, and a large hole appeared on his forehead. Blood flowed continuously, and it was extremely pitiful as he said, "No, I don't know!"

"Then do you know the characteristics?"

"W-what?"

Although Venerable Huai was extremely afraid, he also knew that the Ghost asked all of this. Could it be that he was going to seek revenge?

"If you don't say it, I can only see you as the one who killed me. I will take your life!"

Ah!" No, no, I say!

Venerable Huai's entire body was trembling as he cried out, "Yes, yes, there's a palace's young eunuch, but I really don't know which palace it is!"

Venerable Huai was truly frightened to the extreme. He twitched, then fainted.

Meng Zijing saw that she had fainted, so he took off the white veil on his body. Looking at the unconscious and motionless Duke Huai, he felt helpless.

But luckily, there was a new clue. In this harem, Song Qi had a lot of eyes and ears. There would always be someone who could see the little eunuch that was gathered around Imperial Concubine Rong's sleeping quarters.

Meng Zixian originally wanted to find out if there was anything valuable in the Imperial Concubine's sleeping quarters, but now she had to back down a lot. After all, it would be best if she didn't take the best of the corpse's belongings to avoid any bad luck.

The weight of her body was not small either. If it was not for the fact that she had been training diligently recently, she was afraid that she would not be able to keep up with him.

She had a burden on her and needed to avoid being tracked down by the imperial guards. It wasn't easy for her to finally arrive at Honorable Huai's chambers, so she flew to the courtyard and placed Honorable Huai at the door of the palace.

She hid to the side, and only after seeing that someone had discovered Venerable Huai, did she leave.

He returned to his room and waited for Song Que. Song Que didn't come to the palace for a few days.

In the end, they had no choice but to go to Jingfei's sleeping quarters.

"Esteemed Jingfei, we've really found some important clues this time. I'd like to ask you to pass some information to His Excellency Song."

Quiet And Steadfast took a sip of tea and said leisurely, "Miss Meng is not in a hurry. What's the matter this time?"

"The cause of Imperial Concubine Rong's death."

When Jingfei heard this, her hand holding the teacup froze for a moment, her expression becoming stiff for a moment, but it was still as gentle as ever when she recovered. "Oh, alright. I'll definitely get someone to deliver the news."

"Then, I must thank the Empress."

After Meng Zixian left, Jingfei placed the teacup on the table heavily, her anger contained.

Three days later, Song Qishen personally came to Meng Zixian's place.

"I heard you got the news."

"Master Song, you got the news really late. I've been sending it over for three days."

Song Que was surprised and didn't say anything: "I clearly …"

Before he finished speaking, he frowned and stopped talking. Meng Zixian didn't notice his abnormality and continued, "I heard that on the night before Imperial Concubine Rong died, a young eunuch had entered."

"I think that since I told you about Imperial Concubine Rong, you'll definitely send someone to monitor her from time to time."

When Song Que heard her words, he let out a rare smile and the two began to think the same thing.

"I'll check."

After he finished speaking, he put down the antidote and gave it to Meng Zixian.

Seeing the black pill in her hand, Meng Zixian laughed at herself and swallowed it.

Song Que was very efficient. He quickly found out which palace the young eunuch came from. Meng Zijue just found out and was about to personally tie him up.

As for Song Que and Jing Fei, because they were investigating the matter of Consort Rong, they had a dispute.

"Qi He, can you stop investigating the death of Imperial Consort Rong?"

Song Que frowned and did not refuse. Jingfei paced left and right anxiously and said angrily, "Imperial Concubine Rong is only a concubine, can you not continue?"

"Why?"

Song Qi didn't understand when Jing Fei tried to stop him.

"Imperial Concubine Rong allowed you to be humiliated. It's not enough for you to die, but I have a reason that I have to investigate." Song Que seriously answered Jingfei's question.

Quiet And Steadfast took Song Qi He's hand and pleaded, "Qi He, can't you help the emperor? "Don't get involved with anything else, please."

"I'm really worried about you."

Song Que wanted to say a few more words, but upon hearing Jingfei's words, his heart softened. He looked at her gently and said, "Huai Zhi, I have a mission that I have to do."

Quiet And Steadfast pretended to be unyielding and pushed Song Qi River away, "You know I don't like it, yet you still insist on doing what you want?"
