Of course, Camellia also tried to call her in the middle, but no matter what Camellia did, Xu Yingying just stayed in bed and refused to get up. In the end, Camellia was so angry that she had no choice.

At the same time, Li Siqi, who had been stood up by Xu Yingying all morning, was standing helplessly at the door of Camellia's house.

He hesitated for the whole morning, wondering whether he should go in or not, but after thinking about it for a whole morning, he still couldn't come to a conclusion.

All of Li Siqi's actions were seen by Camellia.

She looked at Li Siqi's waiting expression and finally hardened her heart and said to Taohua beside her: "Go to the adults' room and tell her that there is a fire. Remember to shout louder, otherwise she won't be able to hear you. Act more realistically."

When Taohua heard this, she looked at Camellia hesitantly and said with an unpleasant expression: "This...is not good!"

"Okay, go quickly. Just listen to me! Mr. Li is waiting for her to get up to investigate the case! He has been waiting for a whole morning. Is this appropriate?" Camellia emphasized to Taohua in a very serious tone.

After hesitating for a while, Taohua finally nodded and said, "Okay!"

Under the coercion and inducement of Camellia, Taohua finally walked into Xu Yingying's room.

She looked at Xu Yingying who was sleeping soundly and shouted loudly: "My Lord, it's bad, there is a fire outside, a big fire, please get up quickly!"

Xu Yingying, who was originally sleeping soundly on the bed, screamed, then jumped out of the bed in panic, wrapped herself in clothes and prepared to run out.

As a result, after running a few steps, Xu Yingying not only did not see any sparks, but also saw Chahua's grinning face with her teeth showing.

Xu Yingying instantly realized that she had been tricked by the two of them.

Seeing that something was not right, Camellia immediately pulled Taohua out of the house.

Xu Yingying followed them out without hesitation, chasing them with a broom and yelling at them to vent her dissatisfaction.

"No? You are sick! You are disturbing my sweet dreams so early in the morning."

"If you two have the guts today, just wait and see how I kill you two when I catch you."

"I'm really convinced. Today I won't let you know who the master is."

……

Xu Yingying was so busy venting her inner dissatisfaction that she didn't notice Li Siqi who had been sitting there waiting for a long time.

Li Siqi saw Xu Yingying with her hair loose, barefoot, and wearing a white underdress, and then suddenly rushed into the yard and yelled at the air. Li Siqi was so scared that he trembled all over.

This person might be suffering from hysteria!

When Li Siqi thought of this, he couldn't help but shrink his neck, fearing that Xu Yingying would hurt him if she went crazy.

At this time, Li Siqi wanted to reduce his presence as much as possible and then find a chance to leave here.

After being chased by Xu Yingying for a while, Camellia finally hid behind Li Siqi.

Only then did Xu Yingying notice Li Siqi's presence. She quickly stood still and subconsciously threw the broom aside.

Oh no! I don’t know how much he saw.

At this moment, Xu Yingying was also recalling in her mind what she had promised Li Siqi before going to bed last night, and she suddenly felt unwell.

She wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into, but there was no such hole. She had to face everything in front of her, and also face Li Siqi.

Xu Yingying smiled awkwardly and said to Li Siqi, "Mr. Li, I'm sorry! Please wait for me again. It will only take a while."

"Okay, okay, it's okay." Li Siqi replied politely.

Xu Yingying covered her head and quickly ran back to her room. Before leaving, she glared fiercely at the camellia behind Li Siqi.

It was Camellia's fault that things turned out like this today. She remembered this account, and she would not be a gentleman if she did not take revenge.

After Xu Yingying returned to the room, she simply washed up and took Li Siqi to the yamen.

On the road.

Perhaps because he felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Li Siqi was the first to speak and break the weird atmosphere.

"Sir, do you want to have breakfast? You haven't eaten anything since you got up." Li Siqi said cautiously.

Xu Yingying shook her head. "No need. I'll be back soon."

Xu Yingying didn't even turn her head while speaking, for fear of meeting Li Siqi's gaze.

The two of them arrived at the yamen in silence.

As soon as Li Siqi stepped into the yamen, he saw the corpse lying in the middle.

At first glance, he felt that the corpses looked familiar and felt uneasy.

When Li Siqi saw the wooden plaque on the other party's waist, he immediately became furious, because this wooden plaque was exactly his secret guard in the palace, but now he was dead here and his face was unrecognizable.

In all likelihood, something went wrong in the palace.

Naturally, Li Siqi's reactions did not escape Xu Yingying's eyes.

"You... knew the deceased?" Xu Yingying asked cautiously.

Li Siqi nodded, and then said very tactfully: "This is a distant relative of my family, and this person is related to the royal family."

After hearing this, Xu Yingying was a little surprised and couldn't help but open her mouth wide.

This……

If she doesn't handle it well, won't her life be in danger?

Thinking of this, Xu Yingying no longer had the heart to rest and immediately started to deal with the matter.

"Wu Da, take his badge and find out what identity it represents."

Xu Yingying spoke to Wu Dadi who was standing beside her.

"Yes, my lord."

Wu Da was extremely efficient and came back to report soon.

"Sir, this is a badge that is exclusive to the Imperial Palace."

After listening to this, Xu Yingying nodded. The information found matched the information provided by Li Siqi, so there was no problem.

When Xu Yingying was working at her desk thinking about what to do next, a group of wandering ghosts came to her.

She frowned and looked at the group of wandering ghosts in front of her. These ghosts were the same group of ghosts she had seen in the box before.

However, she still had no clue at this time.

"What are you doing here? Do you have any clues?" Xu Yingying looked at these wandering ghosts and said with some confusion.

Yes, she wanted some help.

After hearing Xu Yingying's question, the wandering ghosts came forward one after another.

"Sir, I know some clues. That person is here to find the Ninth Prince." One of the ghosts whispered to Xu Yingying.

After hearing this, Xu Yingying became even more confused.

Ninth Prince?

Why did they come to this small place to look for the prince? She was puzzled.

After hearing Xu Yingying's words, the wandering ghosts scrambled to answer and made a mess.

It was so noisy that it was impossible to hear anything. After a while, Xu Yingying finally spoke.

"Stop talking, you, you speak first."

Xu Yingying chose one of them, after all, all these ghosts talking together were too noisy.

Although they all mean well, it is inevitable that they make people feel annoyed.
