ion."I understand your concerns, and we are very grateful for your willingness to help. The bear clan appreciates it."Hao said that he understood the other person's actions, then sighed and continued:...When Lìchūn heard Liàn Yī's words, a hint of unnaturalness flashed across her face. She then exclaimed in surprise:

"Miss Hua, I truly don't know."

Liàn Yī gently stroked the patterns on her sleeve and said with a smile:

"Beginning of Spring, wasn't my handkerchief the one you gave away"

"I have none!"

Li Chun immediately denied.

Song Jia couldn't possibly have the ability to take my handkerchief without alerting me. As for you and Xia Zhi, you are in charge of managing my daily affairs and could openly come into contact with my personal belongings.

Although I made markings in advance, it's normal for you to have the stamps on your hands. What you're doing is called "lighting up the darkness," and people will automatically ignore you. Even though you're in the most prominent position, you are the safest.

Li Chun stood with his hands clasped, an expression of surprise turning to hurt on his face as if he dared not refute Lian Yi's words. Meanwhile, Xia Zhi was so shocked that her mouth hung open wide.

"I returned to Cui Zhu Yuan safely, and you realized that Fifth Madam's plot against me had failed. That's why you informed Hong Ling’er, aren't you also a member of Tianxia First Floor"

Liàn Yī said resolutely.

"Miss Hua, I was the one who brought you into the inner courtyard. I am only responsible for serving you. I don't know anything else and haven't done anything else."

Li Chun knelt directly on the ground, denying everything.

"It doesn't matter, you can continue to deny it. After all, Hong Ling'er will be caught sooner or later. First, think about how to excuse yourself. Go down!"

The ripples beckoned with a wave of their hand.

After a difficult time in the Spring Equinox, Li Chun hurried out. However, Xia Zhi was caught between wanting to stay and wanting to leave.

"Would you stay and keep me company for a while Let's wait for good news."

Yes, Miss!

Even Xia Zhi, who was known to be dim-witted, discovered that Hua Miss, whom he thought was the easiest to talk to and serve, was the most cunning of the three young ladies who had entered the inner courtyard.

After half an hour, Lian Ri waited for Wen Shi Rui.

Wen Shirui hurried in, entering the Zizhu Courtyard with a pale face and two coughs. Lianyi immediately stood up to greet him, frowning:

"Uncle Wen, are you hurt"

It's okay.

"I heard the bell. What has happened in the castle"

"Hong Ling'er trespassed into the forbidden area on the back mountain of Wenjia Fort."

Wen Shirui did not conceal his thoughts, and said in a deep voice.

"The forbidden area of the back mountain What secrets are there Since Hong Ling'er exposed herself, why didn't she flee but instead went to great lengths to go to the forbidden area of Wenjia Fort"

"There are heirlooms from my Wujiapo family there."

Wen Shirui glanced at Lianyi before replying.

Wasn't that heirloom stolen

No, Hong Ling'er did not succeed.

Wen Shiru sat down calmly and said.

She was caught.

Ripples is saying an affirmative sentence.

"Hmm!"

Wen Shirui nodded.

That's good.

With a ripple of a smile, she poured a cup of tea for Wen Shirui and pushed it toward him.

Although he caught her, she said that you are also a member of the Heaven's First Floor and the most skilled hermit within its hidden ranks.

Ripple replied indifferently:

Then let her bring out the evidence. This isn't the first time I've been accused since entering Wenjia Fort.

"Second brother is interrogating Hong Ling'er, you and I should go take a look together!"

Wen Shirui took a sip of tea and said.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Wen Shiru not only took away Lianyi this time, but also Li Chun.

This time, when Ripple revisited this familiar place, she returned to the dungeon. The dungeon that had once been destroyed was now repaired. At this moment, Qinglan and Songjia were locked inside.

Hong Ling'er was bound to a black pillar. She had no visible wounds, only her breath was somewhat disordered, indicating internal injuries.

Wen Shige and Wen Shixuan were both present. Lian Yi bowed to the two of them before taking a seat beside Wen Shirui, after all, her current status was that of his fiancee.

"Number Six, my mission was a failure. I don't know if you can live to leave Warm Castle."

Hong Ling'er raised her head, a flash of madness in her eyes, and said with a sneer at the corner of her lips.

Ripples just frowned, then slowly said:

"Miss Hong, you're at death's door, why do you still insist on splashing mud on me Do you think that with just a few words that sound half-true, the Wen family will turn their blades against me You are too naive."

"Humph! When I saw Fifth Aunt, you were looking at me from the shadows."

Hong Ling'er said, her face pale.

"Who made some people drug me and leave clues Such obvious framing, of course I know who the mastermind is."

Ripples said calmly.

"You"

Hong Ling'er tore at the ripples of his heart, but every movement she made only tightened the chains that bound her.

The ripples remained unmoved, so he turned to Wen Shirui and asked:

"Uncle Wen, can you tell me what you all asked"

Wen Shirui gave his younger brother a nod, and Wen Shige then opened his mouth to speak.

"The first person we caught was Song Jia, who works for Qing Lan. This time, we entered Wen's Fortress to work together and steal the secret treasure inside."

Song Jia's first mission was to frame Miss Hua. She stole Miss Hua's handkerchief through Li Chun and gave it to Qing Lan after entering the inner courtyard.

Qing Lan, when the time was right, used her position as her father's niece to assassinate him. She left Miss Hua's handkerchief in her father's hand, and Miss Hua should be able to guess what happened next.

Wen Shige's words were brief, but since everyone present had more or less participated, they all roughly understood the course of events.

Ripple lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment before slowly opening her mouth to speak:

If I'm not mistaken, Hong Ling'er started making plans the first day she entered the outer courtyard. Killing Miss Liu was just the first step; her goal was to create chaos, draw out the three young masters, and conveniently send a message to Qinglan in the inner courtyard that she had already entered Wenjia Fort.

Because of Miss Liu's death, the Wen family will definitely investigate us outsiders. The three young masters, out of respect, invited the fifth concubine who is not very prominent in the inner courtyard. After all, the Wen family did her a favor, and she will certainly stand on the side of the three young masters.

But this also gave her the chance to meet Hong Ling'er. The two met that evening, avoiding the patrolling guards.

"If Miss Hua knew they had met, why didn't she tell my elder brother"

Wen Shixuan interjected.

The ripples smiled and said:

"Master Wen's Third Son, Fifth Aunt was indeed a member of the Wen family back then. As an outsider, what I say might not be believable to you all. Moreover, I have no evidence. The two of them could easily deny meeting in secret."

Wen Shixuan frowned after hearing this, and considered Ripple's explanation acceptable.

"Miss Hua, please continue."

Soon after they met, the head of the Wen family was attacked and fell into a coma. Because of a handkerchief, suspicion fell on me.

What they didn't expect was that I would offer the Zi Yun flower to prove my innocence. Once the head of the Wen family wakes up, Qing Lan, the one who did it, will have nowhere to hide.

To divert everyone's attention and protect the true mastermind, Hong Ling'er, she claimed that I had ordered her to do all of this, and she even provided you with sufficient reasons and so-called evidence.rds to go shopping. However, he ran back in a hurry halfway through and then went to find Luo Huai."Luo Huaijie, I heard that something happened to the Pan family last night. Pan Wenbin, the only son...
