Chapter 1225: Insignificant Stranger

Chapter 1225: Insignificant Stranger
A normal person would not remain indifferent upon knowing that his most favored concubine was poisoned. He would at least be angry.

But Changsun Ningyue didn't. Her eyes were like a deep pool, without any ripples.

Lingyun, on the other hand, showed a look of grievance, "Island Master, I have always been favored by you. I wonder if someone has had foolish thoughts and caused me to be poisoned."

There are more than one male favorites in the palace, and it is obvious that he has someone he suspects now.

"If this is true, I will definitely help you get justice and will not let you suffer in vain." Chang Sun Ningyue's expression was still indifferent.

Lingyun was extremely excited, and his heart was filled with emotion. However, he always maintained an inexplicable distance between him and Changsun Ningyue. They seemed close, but with their relationship, they didn't touch each other after talking for a long time, and they didn't even do the ambiguous actions between lovers such as holding hands.

This made their movements seem particularly stiff and unnatural.

Mu Wanxi silently kept his discovery in mind and fell into deep thought for a moment, thinking about the reasons behind it.

Before Mu Wanxi could think it over, she saw the maid Bai Qiang beside Changsun Ningyue approaching with a smile, "Island Master, it's getting late, you should go back to handle government affairs."

"Yes." Changsun Ningyue nodded and changed the subject, "Since someone wants to harm you, I will definitely help you deal with this matter and will definitely not let you suffer any injustice."

Lingyun's eyes wavered, and he stopped Changsun Ningyue, "I beg the island master not to get involved in this matter, and let me handle it myself."

"Why? Do you have someone you suspect?" Changsun Ningyue's eyes were so sharp that she immediately realized the crux of the problem. Lingyun did not deny it, but just smiled gently, "Master, please rest assured and let me handle this matter myself. Master, think about it, when have I ever let you down?"

Changsun Ningyue seemed to think that what Lingyun said made sense. She just glanced at Lingyun indifferently, taking in every expression on this man's face. "Okay, since you are so confident, I will do as you say. If you find any clues at that time, you can come to me at any time. As long as the evidence is solid, I will definitely handle this matter for you."

Lingyun's eyes were filled with joy, and he quickly stood up and bowed to Changsun Ningyue, "Thank you, Island Master."

After saying this, Changsun Ningyue stood up and walked away without even looking at Mu Wanxi.

Instead, Mu Wanxi stared at Changsun Ningyue's departing back with a complicated expression and fell into deep thought.

Mu Wanxi had to admit that Changsun Ningyue's resolute departure just now still touched her nerves deeply.

In fact, she had imagined the scene of seeing her mother again countless times, but she never expected that it would turn out like this in the end.

She recognized her mother at a glance, but her mother did not recognize her, as if she was just an insignificant stranger.

However, Mu Wanxi has always been good at hiding her aura. Just like at this moment, she lowered her eyes to conceal her emotions, with a calm look on her face, and was not noticed by Lingyun here.
