C331 A woman is not a wise man after all

Firstly, he felt that she was a person who stayed here often, and rather, she was trying to change the topic, or perhaps trying to stall for time.

However, Shangguan Minghao could still feel the sweetness in his heart, and he inexplicably felt at ease. "Finding a place doesn't require time, but this!" As he spoke, Shangguan Minghao used his index finger to point at his head.

Fei Yan pouted, although she understood the logic, she still could not accept it.

"You don't seem worried?" Fei Yan finally opened her mouth and spoke the first sentence that came to mind.

Shangguan Minghao turned his head to look at the calm Fei Yan, "What is your concern?" When Shangguan Minghao said this, he looked strangely dubious.

However, Fei Yan's abilities were not shallow, although she had a devilish face, it did not affect her from making her own judgement and decisions.

"Do you know what it is? If you do not even know this, then you are not the Young Master Shangguan that I have my eyes on! " Fei Yan raised her eyebrows, squatting down and poking at the hot water.

Shangguan Minghao's eyes were deep as he looked at Fei Yan's calm and collected actions. Putting force into his palm, a stream of water suddenly flowed out.

The heat lingered, then filled the entire place.

That included Shangguan Minghao and the Fei Yan in front of him.

Fei Yan's eyes that were hidden in the mist was completely gloomy, a kind of inexplicable sense of familiarity filled her mind.

"You like it? "Of course I am the young master Shangguan you have your eyes on!" In this fog, Shangguan Minghao actually had the illusion that this person was Fei Yan, the concubine in his heart, the lover.

Being told of that, Fei Yan became clear-headed. She did not need to hide her emotions anymore as she looked at Shangguan Minghao with a complicated expression on her face, "We know each other?"

After she asked this question, Fei Yan finally realized how unexpected her actions were.

The mist gradually dispersed, and Shangguan Minghao did not seem to mind Fei Yan's words, she spoke while restraining his expression: "Since the other party dares to give it, then why don't you dare, and see who can last till the end, even if that doesn't work, the National Lord Wei will still be pushed to death, furthermore, you are a businessman, so you should be clear, that for any business transaction, it is naturally a gamble, who wins, who has a bit of guts, and who has a bit of luck!"

Fei Yan's face darkened, she lowered her head and hid his expression, then looked at the bubbling water beside the pond and laughed, "Master Shangguan is right, I get it!"

Fei Yan did not know that the water was so clear, her expression was abnormally clear under the reflection of the water.

Shangguan Minghao looked at Fei Yan's face which had also darkened due to the mist. He found it strange, could it be that she was wearing a human skin mask?

Thinking about it, Shangguan Minghao wanted to probe her out, so he extended his hand out to wipe her ears while Fei Yan was not paying attention.

When it came into contact with the skin next to Fei Yan's ears, Fei Yan became more alert and turned her head to look at Shangguan Minghao with a little anger.

Unexpectedly, Shangguan Minghao was able to take back his long and slender hand, "There's dirt in your ears just now, let me wipe it off for you!"

Fei Yan was shocked. She had to know that her disguise technique was drawn on top, if it was discovered, it would affect her future actions. How could she care about the authenticity of Shangguan Minghao's words?

Shangguan Minghao saw that Fei Yan had quickly used her hands to wipe her place, and a smile appeared on her lips. A woman, in the end, was not a smart person, but if she did not have a human skin mask, then she was just an ordinary face.

The two of them had their own thoughts and talked about the details for a while. Even if this were to happen, Fei Yan's calmness and charisma seemed to complement each other, but the things that happened next were not within Fei Yan's expectations, and had jumped out of Shangguan Minghao's calculations.

"Empress Dowager …" A person who looked like a eunuch whispered in the empress dowager's ear. She could clearly see the empress dowager's expression change.

"Is that true?" The empress dowager didn't quite believe her, but seeing the eunuch's expression, she knew that these words were unnecessary. If he had the guts, he probably wouldn't dare lie.

The empress dowager frowned as she fiddled with the bracelet in her hand. It looked somewhat solemn. Who knew what she was thinking as she gazed into the distance? It was just that from her faint sigh and the sudden clenching of her hands, it could be seen that she was making a decision, a somewhat difficult decision.

After the time it took to make a cup of tea, she once again cast her gaze on the eunuch's face. Her tone was very deep.

"You guys have secretly sent people to capture him. I would like to see, what exactly is he doing?" Her Majesty shot a glance at her. This time, she always wanted to be of some use.

"Yes sir!" When the eunuch saw the empress dowager's expression, his gaze tightened as he quickly retreated.

It was night. All living things were asleep. As darkness approached, those that were hidden slowly extended their claws.

When a man in black entered the palace, his eyes were startled and a crack appeared on his face.

"Who are you?" As his words fell, his attacks were exceptionally quick and ruthless.

However, all of this only gave him a little bit of time. For those who had been waiting for a long time, he had no chance of winning.

"If you want to know, then come with us!" Several hidden experts appeared at the same time and surrounded the infiltrator.

That person was also shocked. He didn't think that he would be targeted by someone this time and get his hands on his master. Did something happen? When he thought here, his face became murderous.

A few people exchanged looks before they surrounded him. The person wanted to use his fists and kicks, but he was helplessly surrounded by them.

"What do you want?" The person was truly helpless. Why was such a huge commotion still so quiet, so quiet that it seemed abnormal?

He wanted to bite his tongue to commit suicide, but the few people surrounding him seemed to know what he was thinking. They immediately took action and controlled him, destroying all his thoughts and actions.

It was only when he was taken to the Empress Dowager's palace that he realized the trap he had fallen into, the place he was now in.

"Do you think you can't tell?" The empress dowager looked at the man before her and said playfully.

That person turned his head as if he had made up his mind. He would either stubbornly resist until the end or just die.

Her Majesty could see what he was thinking, but she did not seem in a hurry. Instead, she poured herself a cup of tea and slowly watched the leaves float up and down, up and down, poking at them with the lid of the cup.

That person could bear the torture, but he couldn't bear the empress dowager's actions of not saying anything at all. Sweat was already seeping from his forehead.

Her Majesty saw that the man's face was getting worse and worse, and that his clothes seemed to be getting wet. She then stood up with a smile and slowly walked over to him.

"I heard that you think very highly of a girl. Otherwise, I would reward her to you!" Her Majesty said this with a wide smile, as if she were very reasonable.

However, when that person heard her, his expression completely changed. Others might not understand the Empress Dowager's words, but if he didn't, then he was truly a little stiff.

The empress dowager sat back on the stool after she finished speaking and waited for the time to pass. In fact, she was waiting for the man to think.

That person's brows drooped as he slowly pondered. His mood had changed many times, and from the changes in the fine lines on his forehead, it was clear that he was currently in a dilemma.

The empress dowager suddenly took out something and began to play with it. "Aiyo!" The thing slipped out of her hand and rolled under the man's eyelids.

That person's eyes widened before lowering his head. "Your servant thanks the empress dowager for her gift!"

What had fallen in front of him was precisely the pearl the Empress Dowager had told him about. He had given it to her, and there was blood on it. It made him lose his mind for a moment, and when he thought of seeing her again, he actually agreed to the Empress Dowager's request.

This kowtow meant that he had defected to the empress dowager and betrayed his master.

The empress dowager finally revealed a satisfied smile as she looked at the person kneeling on the ground.

"Let him have a look!" The empress dowager's face relaxed as she quickly called for a servant to help her up to her seat.

"Speak!" When the empress dowager was doing things, there was practically no mistake in the entire procedure. No one had any way to escape, and in the end, it was still better to be old!

The man was a well-trained man, and, knowing her profundity, did not dare make a turn.

The more the empress dowager listened to that person's narration, the uglier her expression became. But soon after, she revealed a secretive smile.

"You can continue to do this task, but don't let that girl live!" Her Majesty pinched her fingers, as if she had a deep grudge against the woman.

That person didn't dare disobey the Empress Dowager's words at the moment. After all, the girl he liked was in the Empress Dowager's hands.

"This subordinate will do it right away!" The man kowtowed and was about to leave.

The empress dowager smiled. "Don't worry. After this is done, we'll grant you a marriage!" This was how the Empress Dowager gave him a slap and then covered him with sugar.

"Young master, I forgot to report something to you last time, please forgive me!" Aunt Meng immediately knelt in front of Zhuo Lei, and said worriedly.

"Aunt Meng, this is a very dangerous situation. You know, if something were to happen to you, not only will you not be able to save mother, you would even be killed if you were to alert the enemy. Mother has always regarded you as a sister, and if something were to happen to you, how would I account for Mother?"

Zhuo Lei's words were unusually accurate, and even had some hidden meaning.

Aunt Meng knew that her actions were reckless, but the situation was extremely urgent and she did not have much time to think about it.

Seeing Aunt Meng listening silently, Zhuo Lei sighed, told Aunt Meng to be careful, and didn't say anything more.

"Han, last time you followed Aunt Meng, did you find anything?" Zhuo Lei was still very worried, thinking that his thinking was too simple. He felt that there was something wrong …

Han did not know why his master was so sensitive, but that matter was indeed strange. However, since the other party had suddenly disappeared, he was unable to keep up. The clues seemed to have been cut off midway, and Aunt Meng did not seem to be lying.

"Mistress, Aunt Meng was indeed a little impulsive when it came to the last matter, but there was nothing that could be done about the situation then!" After thinking about it, he still wanted Zhuo Lei to be at ease.

When Zhuo Lei heard Han say that, he also knew the answer, but he was still a little worried. "Have you found the famous doctor that I asked you to find?"

Han was stunned, but then she realized something. "We already have a clue, but I heard that person is a monster!"
