I traveled through time with my best friend.

"Why are you in He Mansion?"

Lin Yiyi explained: "After Zeng Qin framed me, it was Wang Ziyan who saved me. He left the capital because he didn't want to get married. I followed him to Anren County. We happened to see the master of the He family being hunted down. Wang Ziyan rescued him, and then we were invited to live in the He Mansion."

Jiang Xue looked back and asked, "Where is Prince Yanren?"

"I don't know what I was talking about with Mr. He in the study."

Lin Yiyi said as she looked at Jiang Xue, "What about you? Why did you come to Anren County?"

Jiang Xue told him about her experiences over the past few days. Lin Yiyi covered her mouth and said in surprise: "What, you want to visit the He Mansion at night?"

"Yes." Jiang Xue said with a smile: "I was just worrying about how to enter the He Mansion. Now that you are here, I don't have to worry about it."

Lin Yiyi looked back, and with a somewhat nervous expression, he pulled Lin Yiyi aside and whispered, "I feel that this He Mansion is weird, and the people in the house are also weird. Those maids and servants seem to have never spoken since I arrived at the He Mansion."

"Is it true?" Jiang Xue asked doubtfully.

Lin Yiyi nodded solemnly, "I also find the He family's master strange. By the way, I heard that he has a wife who loves him very much, but I haven't seen her in the past few days I have been here."

Jiang Xue frowned as she listened, "It seems like we have to explore the He Mansion. We might find some surprising secrets."

"Miss Yiyi." Wang Ziyan's voice sounded from behind.

The two looked up and saw a gentle and graceful young man standing next to Wang Ziyan. Jiang Xue looked at Lin Yiyi and signaled with her eyes, "Is this Mr. He?"

Lin Yiyi nodded.

Jiang Xue looked over again. He Zhizhou had slender and bright eyebrows and the light in his eyes was like the slight luster on a piece of jade. It looked very gentle, but in Jiang Xue's opinion, there was also some shrewdness and calculation in his eyes.

"Ms. Lin, this is..."

He Zhizhou asked.

Lin Yiyi reacted, "This is the friend I have been sending messages to Beijing to find. I didn't expect to meet him here by accident."

He Zhizhou looked at Jiang Xue and saluted modestly, "So you are Miss Lin's friend."

Jiang Xue politely replied, "That's right, I'm sorry to bother you these past few days."

"No problem. My brother and I hit it off right away, so I specially invite you two to stay at my house for a few days."

"Yiyi and I haven't seen each other for a long time. I wonder if Mr. He would mind having one more person bothering you?"

He Zhizhou smiled and said, "Since you are Miss Lin's friend, of course you don't mind."

Jiang Xue looked at He Zhizhou with a smile on her face. She always felt that this man was a beast in human form, and there was something wrong with the way he looked at Yiyi.

Wang Ziyan replied nonchalantly, "Why did Miss Jiang come to Anren County?"

"I went to Anzhou to visit my grandmother."

Jiang Xue spoke directly, looking at Wang Ziyan, and suddenly remembered King Cheng's words. He must have the things on Wang Ziyan's body.

But she saw that the young marquis was always out of tune with her, so what valuable things could he have on him?

Wang Ziyan felt uncomfortable when he saw Jiang Xue staring at him. He quickly looked at He Zhizhou and said, "Brother He, didn't you just say that there are still many refugees in Anren County? Let's go and take a look."

"Okay, please come this way, Brother Wang." He Zhizhou turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation.

Jiang Xue has seen countless men, and no man's little movements can escape her eyes. Seeing Wang Ziyan fleeing in panic, Jiang Xue raised the corners of her mouth and couldn't help laughing.

He Zhizhou looked at Lin Yiyi politely and said, "Miss Lin, please take your friend in."

"Thank you, Master He."

After the two left, Lin Yiyi brought Jiang Xue into the mansion. The more Jiang Xue thought about it, the more she felt that He Zhizhou's eyes were very strange, as if he was staring at a prey, so she reminded him, "Yiyi, don't be alone with Mr. He in the future."

Lin Yiyi also felt something and nodded in response: "Okay."

In the inn.

After hearing Wen Yu's report, Pei Zhijin raised his eyebrows slightly, "She moved into the He Mansion?"

"Yes." Wen Yu continued, "The young lady from the Lin family and the young marquis are also in the He Mansion."

"Sir, this is the letter from Miss Jiang." Someone knocked on the door and said.

Wen Yu opened the door, took the letter, and asked, "Does Miss Jiang have anything else to say?"

"She said she wrote down everything she wanted to say in the letter."

Wen Yu closed the door and handed the letter to Pei Zhijin.

After Pei Zhijin opened the letter, he frowned as he looked at the densely packed and crooked words on it.

Wen Yu saw this from the side and couldn't help but sigh: "It's hard to describe Miss Jiang's handwriting."

Pei Zhijin ignored her and started reading the letter, then put it on the table. He didn't expect Jiang Xue to be so brave.

"Send someone to keep an eye on the He Mansion and tell me immediately if there is any news."

"Yes."

into the night.

He Mansion.

After the last light in the mansion went out, Jiang Xue groped her way towards He Zhizhou's study in the dark in the east courtyard. During the day, she had asked Yiyi to take her around He's mansion.

They already knew the location of the study, and Lin Yiyi was about to come over, but Jiang Xue was afraid that too many people would make her conspicuous, so she refused to let Lin Yiyi come over.

The wind tonight was a little creepy. For some reason, Jiang Xue always felt a chill on her back. She always felt like someone was staring at her, but when she turned around, she felt that the gaze disappeared.

Although Jiang Xue was a little scared of these things, compared with her own life, these were nothing.

As long as Pei Zhijin can trust her, she can accept these sacrifices.

She found her way to the study room very easily. Jiang Xue lay down at the door and listened inside. When she heard no sound, she slowly opened the door and walked in.

"call!"'

The fire starter in Jiang Xue's hand lit up, and it instantly felt much brighter. Then she looked around a lot. She heard Yiyi say during the day that He Zhizhou liked to stay in the study for a long time when he had nothing to do. There must be some secret in it.

He began to look around. There was nothing strange about it. It was just an ordinary study room. He walked to the bookshelf and started to flip through the books.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she picked up the book, she triggered a mechanism. Many small holes appeared on the wall, and the arrows inside shot towards Jiang Xue.

Jiang Xue's pupils shrank suddenly and she hid under the desk. Listening to the arrows flying around, her heart began to pound. Fortunately, she dodged quickly, otherwise she would have been shot into a sieve.

As a result, one problem after another arose. Jiang Xue inadvertently touched the corner of the table and heard something vibrate. Then the bookshelf opened slowly on both sides. Jiang Xue was stunned. The ancient people were really smart.

As she said that, she crawled out from under the table, but she didn't expect that arrows started shooting out from the small holes on the wall again. This time Jiang Xue had no time to dodge, and saw the arrows were about to pierce through her body.

Jiang Xue was suddenly pulled over by a force, and then bumped into a strong chest. Before she could react, she was taken into the secret passage.

With a click, the door of the secret passage closed, and Jiang Xue's sight fell into darkness again. Listening to the steady breath beside his ears, Jiang Xue was a little stunned. Who saved him just now? Why did he smell so good? It seemed like a light fragrance, but he couldn't think of what kind of flower fragrance it was.

With a whoosh, Jiang Xue's surroundings lit up. Looking up, Jiang Xue asked in surprise, "Is it you?"
