Chapter 64 The Secret of Songbaiyuan
Songbaiyuan.

Xie Chengfeng looked at the graceful figure on the bed, and his whole body and mind relaxed. "Huo Aying, do you still need to be reserved? I don't believe that I can't get the woman I want."

The moonlight is dim and the shadows of the trees are intermittent.

Xie Chengfeng jumped onto the bed impatiently.

……

Ah Ying hurried along the road towards Yimeyuan.

"Miss, are we worrying too much?" Su Jian felt a little uneasy.

Aying's suspicion grew stronger and stronger. No, everything was wrong today!

"Yimeiyuan is under renovation. How could the prince disregard propriety and ask me to go there?" Aying said solemnly.

After hearing this, Su Jian immediately understood and asked in surprise, "Are you saying that someone deliberately lured you here?"

Ah Ying shook her head, "I don't know..."

You can only tell whether it is a human or a ghost when you see it.

When I walked to the corridor, the lights were still bright, but when I looked towards the Yime Courtyard, it became a little dim.

Ah Ying mustered up her courage and walked forward.

On the other side of the corridor, Xie Chengyi came walking on the moon.

Seeing what looked like Aying's shadow walking by in the distance, Xie Chengyi couldn't help but stop.

Zhan Liyi saw Ah Ying's figure and asked in confusion, "It's so late, what is Miss Ah Ying doing in Yimei Courtyard?"

"She has always known how to protect herself. Let her be." Xie Chengyi glanced at Aying's figure without delving into it.

"That's right. Miss Aying is the smartest. Let's go to Songhuayuan first. Madam was really pissed off by Miss Guan this time." Zhan Li said.

Xie Chengyi then walked towards Songhuayuan.

***
Aying waited in Yimeyuan for a long time but saw nothing.

The cool night wind blew slowly. Su Jian wrapped herself up in clothes and shivered, "Girl, there's no one here..."

Ah Ying lowered her eyes and sighed softly. Was she overthinking?

"Forget it, let's go back first." Aying was full of doubts.

The tiredness of this day makes people feel tired and exhausted.

Just as Aying was about to fall asleep, she heard a hurried sound.

Ah Ying pulled aside the curtain suspiciously and poked her head in, "Su Jian, did you hear that?"

Su Jian hurried over and said uncertainly, "Okay, it seems to have come from the North Courtyard."

As soon as I put on my cloak, I saw Nanny Su also got up.

"Mammy." Aying said softly.

Aunt Su asked in confusion: "What happened?"

As soon as I walked to the door and opened it, I saw people in twos and threes holding torches, calling out, "Miss Mengzhu?"

"Guan Mengzhu?" Aying was puzzled.

Afterwards, Wang Changyue saw Songheyuan open its door and walked over.

"Madam Su, Miss Aying." Wang Changyue looked at Aying deeply and said with almost restraint.

Nanny Su asked, "What are you doing? You're almost disturbing the old lady."

Wang Changyue replied, "Miss Mengzhu of the Guan family is missing. It's getting late at night now. The Second Madam is afraid that something has happened to her, so she asked Madam to send us to look for her."

Ah Ying's heart was shocked and she looked at Su Ma.

"Can't find her? I saw her when I was listening to the opera just now, but Mengzhu said she was not feeling well, so she went back." Aying said puzzled.

Wang Changyue shook his head. "The Second Madam said that Miss Mengzhu went out with Miss Shule in the afternoon and never came back."

Nanny Su frowned, "If something really happens, the Guan family will be in chaos."

Ah Ying quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, Ma'am. I'll go look for her too. Please think carefully about this matter first and don't scare Grandmother."

Madam Su nodded, "Okay, young lady, please go slowly."

Aying hurried back to the house, packed up briefly, and went out with Wang Changyue.

As soon as I walked to the corridor, I saw Xie Chengyi walking in from outside.

Xie Chengyi saw Huo Aying, who was wearing thin clothes, walking behind Wang Changyue, and his eyes immediately deepened.

He walked straight towards Ah Ying and said solemnly, "Don't you know to wear one more layer when you go out?"

As he said that, he took off his cloak and put it on Aying.

Wang Changyue looked at all this from the side, his expression slightly darker.

"Master Wang is following orders and is looking for Meng Zhu." Ah Ying said softly. "Sir, Miss Meng Zhu is missing. I am leading Ma San'er and the others to look for her." Wang Changyue replied with a fist.

Xie Chengyi's face changed, "Can't find it? How can you not find it?"

"In the afternoon, Mengzhu and Shuer came to me to go to the opera together, but Mengzhu said she was not feeling well on the way, so she went back first." Aying said.

Not to mention the cousin, even if a servant disappeared in the marquis's mansion inexplicably, it would be a big deal, not to mention that Xie Chengyi would not tolerate any grain of sand in his eyes.

Xie Chengyi immediately replied, "Zhanli, you go too, check one by one!"

Zhan Li responded, "Yes."

After Wang Changyue left, Xie Chengyi whispered, "Go back and stay!"

Ah Ying was startled and said bluntly, "I won't!"

Xie Chengyi turned his head to look at her, "How can you help?"

Ah Ying felt even more uneasy for some reason, "I want to look for it together."

Xie Chengyi sighed, frowned and said, "Follow me."

They started looking from the residences closest to the north courtyard.

I looked for Xingchunyuan, but couldn't find it.

I looked for Juexiayuan, but couldn’t find it.

I looked for Jingqiuyuan, but couldn’t find it.

I looked in Yimeyuan, but couldn't find it either.

Going further ahead is Songbaiyuan, and Wang Changyue hesitated at the door.

"Have you found it?" Xie Chengyi asked seriously.

Wang Changyue nodded and said, "I haven't found it yet."

"Why don't you look for it?" Xie Chengyi asked directly.

Wang Changyue calmed down and said in embarrassment: "The Marquis is in Songbai Courtyard."

Cheng Lin happened to be here too. When he heard Wang Changyue say this, he stepped forward and said, "Brother, I'll go!"

Xie Chengyi thought for a moment and felt that only Chenglin was the most suitable.

Xie Chenglin had just called out twice when he heard his mother's voice, and she said irritably, "What time is it? If you don't go to bed, I have to sleep too."

Xie Chenglin looked grim, "My son just passed on the message, and will leave after the search is complete."

At this time, Xie Chenglin was sticking close to the door listening to the response from inside.

"It's so annoying. I can't even sleep well!" After a long time, Xie Chenglin heard the complaining voice inside and felt a chill in his heart.

But things still need to be done. After adjusting his thoughts, he signaled Wang Changyue and said, "Start looking, Brother Changyue."

Aying has been wondering where Mengzhu could go, and Mengzhu's performance in the afternoon, it must be said, was indeed a little abnormal.

I took an unintentional glance and felt that there seemed to be something bright.

When he came closer and bent down to take a look, Ah Ying was stunned, "My Lord, look!"

When Xie Chengyi heard A Ying calling him, he turned his head and saw A Ying holding an earring.

"What is this?" Xie Chengyi looked serious.

Ah Ying said solemnly: "It's Meng Zhu's..."

At the same time, Wang Changyue also ran out in panic.

“Prince——” Wang Changyue’s expression was complicated and unclear.

Xie Chengyi walked inside until he saw Xie Chenglin's clenched fist.

"Chenglin, what's wrong?" Xie Chengyi asked.

Xie Chenglin angrily hammered the door frame, "Evil creature!"

The servant kneeling at the door was trembling uncontrollably.

Xie Chengyi calmed himself down, took a look inside, and immediately frowned, his face darkening several shades.

Ah Ying asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Just as she was about to go in, she saw two bodies entangled in love on the bed, and was pulled into Xie Chengyi's arms, "Don't look!"

Ah Ying's heart was pounding, "That is——"

If she was not mistaken, it was Xie Chengfeng and Guan Mengzhu...

Xie Chengyi tightly protected Ah Ying's head and said to Cheng Lin sternly, "Pull that evil creature out for me!"

Good morning everyone

Ah Ying: I thought there were ghosts, but I didn't expect them to be so treacherous
