However, Caiyun discovered something wrong as soon as she opened the wardrobe.

She is Qi Wuyou's first-class maid, and is usually responsible for taking care of Qi Wuyou's daily life.

She also packed all of Qi Wuyou's clothes, and folded each piece neatly and placed them in the closet.

Now, however, although the clothes in the closet are still in their original places, there are some subtle changes - they have become a little messy.

Caiyun was shocked. She clearly remembered that the young lady did not change her clothes today.

Moreover, in the morning, after Sister Lianxiang helped Qi Wuyou change his clothes, Caiyun took a special look when she was cleaning, and found that the clothes were still tidy.

Caiyun felt confused, but she didn't show it and continued to focus on organizing her closet.

However, her eyes inadvertently swept across the room and finally stopped at the bed.

As expected, she found a veil behind the bed that was out of place with the surrounding environment.

The bed curtains in the young lady's room were carefully arranged according to the young lady's preferences in the palace. They were as white as snow, while the veil was bright yellow.

Although her heart was full of curiosity and doubts, Caiyun chose to remain silent, as if she had not seen the veil.

She continued to organize her clothes in an orderly manner, then walked out of the room as usual, closing the door gently.

Yuehua didn't emerge from her hiding place until she was sure that Caiyun had left.

She knew that time was running out and she had to act quickly.

So she quickly tidied her clothes, made sure no one in the yard noticed anything unusual, and then left carefully.

After Caiyun left the room, she went straight to the dining hall.

Normally, the servants would gather here to eat, and at this moment the dining hall was crowded and bustling.

She came to look for He Xiang.

It’s just that there are many people in their own courtyard, and those sitting at He Xiang’s table are all elderly people who came out of the palace.

Only Meixue and Lianxiang were not there. They were having dinner with Qi Wuyou in the main hall.

Caiyun didn't care and went straight to Hexiang's ear and said with a smile: "Sister, someone just came into the young lady's room."

He Xiang was slightly stunned, a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and motioned Caiyun to continue.

Caiyun nodded and continued, "Judging from the color of her clothes, she should be Yuehua from the eldest lady's courtyard. She just searched the closet."

She paused, as if remembering something important, and continued, "But I don't think she took anything away. She just rummaged around."

Afterwards, Caiyun added: "I didn't alert the enemy, I just put down my clothes and came out."

He Xiang sneered, then blinked at Caiyun, her eyes full of admiration: "Ruzi is teachable, and you did a good job."

Caiyun was a little worried and couldn't help asking, "Sister, could this person sneak into the mansion with the intention of doing harm to the young lady?" Her voice was a little nervous, revealing her inner uneasiness.

After all, they all knew the status of the Yu family, and this was no joke.

Sure enough, when the others heard this, they put down their chopsticks, their expressions became serious, and they were all waiting for He Xiang to make a decision.

He Xiang smiled and comforted everyone in a relaxed tone: "Don't worry, you all can find out about this, how could we not know it?"

When everyone heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and the originally tense atmosphere gradually eased.

"Then what should we do now? Should we tell the young lady?" Caiyun asked immediately, obviously still a little worried.

He Xiang shook her head, her eyes firm and calm: "Not for now."

Her voice was low and steady, giving people an inexplicable sense of security.

"Okay." Caiyun didn't ask why, but responded directly.

He Xiang turned to look at the other people, "You guys too, don't make this public, especially don't let the young lady know."

"Got it. Don't worry, sister." Several people nodded in response.

He Xiang nodded with satisfaction, "Then let's continue eating."

Everyone then picked up their chopsticks again and started eating.

But Caiyun was still worried. She quickly asked, "Sister, what should we do?"

He Xiang blew gently on the porridge in the spoon, then took a sip and tasted it. She continued expressionlessly, "Just pretend you don't know, but you have to keep an eye on her all the time. Do you understand?"

"Glorious and colorful" Siyun and Xiaozhezi nodded when they heard it.

He Xiang thought about it again, and suddenly remembered something. She turned to Caiyun and asked, "I remember, what was the name of the guy in your courtyard with the eldest lady?"

Caiyun was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, she answered: "Cai Lian?"

"Yes, it's her. You have a good relationship with her, right?" He Xiang asked softly.

Caiyun nodded and replied: "Yes, sister, we usually have a good relationship."

He Xiang heard this and said in a gentle voice: "If that's the case, then spend more time with her and see if you can get anything out of her."

Caiyun nodded obediently and replied, "Yes, sister."

"Also, remember not to alert the enemy." He Xiang warned in a serious tone.

Caiyun nodded repeatedly and assured, "Don't worry, sister. I won't let her find out."

After Caiyun left, He Xiang looked into the distance with a deep gaze, as if she was thinking about something important.

After leaving Qi Wuyou Courtyard, Yuehua still couldn't calm down for a long time.

Judging from the results of her investigation just now, this matter has nothing to do with the second young lady.

But how to explain what happened to her today? Was it really just a dream?

Yuehua rubbed her aching forehead and lay on the bed full of confusion.

Maybe it was because she was too tired or because of the aftereffects of the incense, but she fell into a deep sleep after lying in bed for only a short while.

However, Yuehua was awakened by a nightmare in the middle of the night.

In her dream, she was lost in a dense forest. Suddenly, a huge black crow fell from the sky and swooped down towards her.

Yuehua tried to escape in terror, but her feet seemed to be nailed down and she couldn't move.

The crow's claws grabbed her shoulders and its sharp beak pecked her throat...

Yuehua suddenly opened his eyes and was sweating all over.

She was breathing heavily and her heart was beating fast.

She touched her neck and felt a slight pain there.

She had no idea what the dream meant, but it made her feel uneasy and frightened.

Yuehua sat up and found that it was pitch black outside.

She glanced at the hourglass and realized it was already midnight.

She sighed, feeling a little thirsty and was about to get up to drink some water.

But at this moment, there was a slight sound outside the window, as if something had fallen on the windowsill.

Yuehua looked towards the window vigilantly, and saw a white dove standing there with a letter in its mouth.

Yuehua recognized that this was the carrier pigeon from Prince Yu's Mansion, and her heart tightened.

She quickly opened the window and took the letter from the pigeon's feet. She unfolded it and saw only two words on it: "Come back soon."
