At the same time, Heng Yue went to the capital to visit the Regent's Palace.

A storm arises!

"What did you say!?" A faint and pleasant smile froze on his face, and the tea cup in Shura's hand fell to the ground with a bang, smashing into pieces. The crisp sound of the porcelain breaking was shocking.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shura gasped hard, he couldn't believe what he heard in his ears!

In Tonghua Terrace, a stunning woman has moved in!

Moreover, the woman was holding a small baby in her hands!

How is this possible!

What made Shura feel most horrified and suspicious was that his subordinates said that the stunning woman who entered the vermilion building on Tonghua Terrace with a baby in her arms entered Tonghua Terrace through a secret passage in the back mountain in a swaggering manner as a hostess.

!

That expression, and her familiarity with every plant and tree in Tonghua Terrace, all indicate that that woman is the original owner of the small vermilion building that was designated as a forbidden area by Young Master Liushang...!

"Seventeen, everything you said is true? Nothing false at all?"

Shura suddenly stood up and looked at his subordinates who came to report with a sharp and even ferocious face. This information was really shocking!

If it is true, doesn't it mean that the young mistress Liushang not only hid her beauty in the golden house without telling the mistress, but also allowed the woman to have a dark knot in her pregnancy and give birth to the mistress away from the limelight before returning to the Regent's Palace?!

If the mistress knew this news...

Shura's scalp suddenly became numb.

But he immediately shook his head vigorously and rejected the idea. No, it was impossible. The young master doted on the mistress so much, and it was impossible for him to do such a thing behind the mistress' back.

It has not yet been determined whether the young master is really a hidden beauty in the golden house, whether that woman is a scheming person, and whether the little baby is the young master's flesh and blood...

It's possible that even the young master doesn't know about this...

"Boss, how dare I lie to you about such a big thing? Don't you know what I am like at Shiqi?" Shiqi was serious and swore, almost raising his hands and swearing to prove his innocence.

.

——When he received the information from the brothers who were monitoring Tonghuatai, he couldn't believe it like Boss Shura. He personally rushed to the secret sentry of Tonghuatai to confirm it many times and confirmed that there was nothing false or a joke.

, just ran over to report it in person.

Shura looked at him sinisterly, his eyes dark and uncertain for a while.

Gritting his teeth, he made a decision.

"Seventeen, I will give you another task - within three days, find out all the origins of that woman and whose seed the little baby she is holding is! In addition, from Tianhun,

Deploy four more people to monitor closely all the movements of that woman in Tonghua Terrace twelve hours a day. Be careful not to let anyone know about this except our Tianhun people!"

If that little baby is His Highness the Young Master’s flesh and blood, and His Highness the Young Master and the Mistress don’t know about it, and even if the Young Master has never allowed that woman to give birth to his flesh and blood, then this woman’s heart is to be punished...

"Yes, boss!"

Shi Qi solemnly accepted the order, stepped back with a strange figure, and disappeared into the room.

on the other hand.

The garden is covered with heavy snow, and the tung blossom terrace has thousands of pear trees in bloom.

"Master, be careful where you step, it's very slippery."

Zhu Sha's two intimate maids, Xiu'er, held a bright red swaddling clothes, while Ling'er personally supported Zhu Sha, and slowly stepped step by step on the snow-covered, unswept road leading to Zhu Hong Xiaozhu.

steps.

"Um."

Wearing a luxurious mink fur coat and cinnabar skirt, covered with white gauze, she nodded lightly, with a pair of moving, dreamlike water eyes, with an imperceptible sharp cold light, looking at her indifferently.

around.

She keenly felt that something had changed in Tonghua Terrace this time she came back.

Somehow, her intuition told her that this feeling was not good.

On the day of Huangfu Ye's expedition, she was originally going to rush back to Shangjing City to turn the tide and gather the remaining forces, but fate was not as good as fate. On the night when she was about to arrive at the gate of Shangjing City, the little prince, who had just been born, couldn't bear it.

Running around and having a fever forced her to urgently settle down in a mansion in the suburbs that was the secret contact point of the Helian royal family.

Then she sent people to Xuankong Temple urgently and invited two great doctors from the clan. By the time the two great doctors treated her carefully, more than half a month had passed since the little prince had completely recovered. When the little prince was one month old, she had to rush back to the clan.

There is not much time left after the first trip.

She also found out that there was a lot of turmoil in the capital city, so she simply took the little prince back to her clan to celebrate the full moon banquet, and then participated in the clan meeting to establish her title and status as [Holy Queen Mother], and stayed there for a while.

After a while, after confirming that the little prince's body could withstand her long journey, she returned to the capital.

It took more than two months and almost three months to go back and forth.

She felt something had changed now, the most obvious one was the steps she and her two confidant maids were walking on.

——In the past, even if she was away from Tonghua Terrace in winter and went to a temple on the outskirts of the capital to chant sutras and pray for Huangfu Ye’s deceased mother and concubine for two or three months, there would not be a single frost or snow that had condensed into ice on the steps. But now

, it’s full of them, I don’t know how long it’s been since I sent someone to shovel ice and clear snow...

This discovery made Zhusha's heart sink coldly.

"Master... do you feel that there is anything... different about this Tonghuatai forbidden area?"

Xiu'er frowned, looked around nonchalantly, and whispered behind Zhu Sha.

"Well... the most obvious change is the steps under our feet." Cinnabar kept his expression calm and smiled faintly, signaling the two of them to be silent.

Xiu'er and Ling'er exchanged frightened looks and became even more cautious.

Even the master said so, so the two of them were right.

Tonghua Terrace has really changed, and it has become obvious.

One master and two servants, each with their own thoughts, walked up the steps in silence.

And Ming Ruojing has been waiting there for a long time.

"Sha'er!" With an uncontrollable joyful smile on his face, he strode forward to greet her. A pair of icy eyes, with rare fiery color and longing, swept across the cinnabar face, and finally stayed in Xiu'er's arms.
