One of them was Li, who was in charge of purchasing goods in the imperial residence. Li Yingchun was surnamed Li.

The other was Hu, who was in charge of the accounting and internal affairs of the entire imperial residence. He was the head steward, Hu Guang.

Hu Ping was Hu Guang's son. If Hu Ping really died, then Xia Ling would be unable to move a single step in the imperial residence in the future!

In an instant, Ying Chun felt a little regretful that she had heard Xia Ling say that.

Knowing the inside story meant that she was also a participant. In the future, it would not be easy to separate herself from this matter.

"Master, where's Bai Cui? " Ying Chun asked Xia Ling.

Xia Ling's eyes were filled with tears. "I don't know. Maybe she was knocked unconscious? "

"knocked unconscious? When I brought tea and snacks over, I didn't see master and felt that something was wrong. When I returned to Yue Xuan, I didn't see master. I was about to go out and look again, but I didn't expect... such a thing to happen! Master, are you sure that Hu Ping is dead? "

Xia Ling hesitated and shook her head.

"He was knocked unconscious and fell into the pool. How could he survive? "

"That's not necessarily the case! The Pool isn't deep. " Ying Chun pursed her lips and thought of another way.

She knew too much now. She was tied to a boat by Xia Ling. In this situation, Hu Guang was going crazy. He definitely wouldn't care if she was Li Fu's daughter or not. She had to plan for herself.

"Master, wait in the courtyard. I'll go out and ask around. ". "If that steward Hu is really dead, I'll get the news. Whether he's alive or dead, you'll find a way to see the regent King and beg him to make the decision for you. You'll blame everything on Bai Cui and Steward Hu. ". "This backyard is the regent King's backyard after all. No matter how powerful Steward Hu is, he wouldn't dare to make a move under the regent king. "

Xia Ling hesitated for a moment and nodded vigorously. "Okay, I will do as you say. Ying Chun, I'll leave the matter to you first! "

Ying Chun nodded and felt that Xia Ling had responded a little too quickly.

She looked at Xia Ling's clear and tearful eyes and inexplicably felt like she had been tricked.

However, Ying Chun shook her head and shook off this illusion.

Xia Ling was a dancer who had just entered the regent king's residence. How would she know whose side she belonged to?

The News of Ying Chun came back. It was already the end of the fifth hour.

Hu Ping's life was not over yet. He fell into the pond, but he soon woke up.

He shouted for help and was saved by a passing servant.

Bai Cui fainted in the front yard. She was captured and interrogated by the servants. It was probably because she had made up a line with Hu Ping. The two of them insisted that Xia Ling had fallen in love with Hu Ping, so they asked Bai Cui to ask Hu Ping out. Hu Ping did not comply, so Xia Ling attacked him She knocked Hu Ping unconscious and pushed him into the pond beside the rockery.

"Master, quickly go to the Front Yard and beg the Regent King to make a decision for you. Otherwise, no one in Yuexuan will be able to stand up to big chief Hu's interrogation! "

"okay, I'll go now! " Xia Ling replied.

Gu Yan came out of the study and saw a thin figure kneeling outside the second door of his study yard.

Gu Yan was stunned when he saw the woman's figure.

"Your Highness, this is the concubine you just took in. She is Xia Ji, a dancer sent by the Minister of Rites, " Li Yu reminded him in a low voice.

"Oh, it's her... " Gu Yan remembered.

"What's wrong with her? Why is she kneeling here? " Gu Yan asked to the side.

Li Yu shook his head, indicating that he did not know.
