Being tortured by her whole family, she no longer pretends to be a real daughter!

"Actually, there's no need for you to be so resistant and ask your master to come see me. I didn't call her here to accuse her of anything. I just want to clarify a few things. Once I figure it out, I won't make things difficult for you."

"What do you want to find out?" Lin Yusheng asked.

"Why is my jade token in your master's hands? I think she's the only one who can explain this to me. I don't think anyone is capable of stealing the jade token from me. This jade token was probably given to your master by me. Since I could give her such an important gift, I guess either I have something to ask of her, or we have a very close relationship."

No matter which one it is, it means that Lin Yusheng’s master must know her and must know her past.

While Jiang Cixi was speaking, Lin Yusheng kept staring at Jiang Cixi.

She felt that Jiang Cixi didn't look like she was lying, and given Jiang Cixi's status, there should be no need for her to lie.

If this jade token was really given to the master by Jiang Cixi, does it really mean that Jiang Cixi knows the master?

So Lin Yusheng couldn't wait to ask her, "Since you gave the jade token to my master, do you know who she is? Do you remember what she looks like?"

Jiang Cixi: “…”

After a long pause, she raised her eyebrows and asked, "Are you asking me?"

"That's right." Lin Yusheng nodded, looking at her with shining black eyes. "Didn't you say that my master and you have a good relationship? Otherwise, you wouldn't have given her such an important thing. So you must know who my master is, right? Maybe you can help me find my master!"

Jiang Cixi: “…”

"What's wrong? Why don't you speak?" Lin Yusheng looked at her in confusion.

Jiang Cixi laughed in anger, "Even you don't know who your master is, how could I know? It's so funny, and you still expect me to help you find a master. You are so young, but you are still very good at taking advantage of others."

"I don't know because I lost my memory!" Lin Yusheng explained anxiously, "I didn't lie to you."

"What a coincidence, I also lost my memory."

Jiang Cixi paused, then added: "I didn't lie to you."

Lin Yusheng: “…”

Lin Yusheng blinked and suddenly realized.

"You're looking for my master because you think she has something to do with your amnesia, right?"

Jiang Cixi nodded lightly, "That's right."

"Then when you regain your memory, will you also remember my master?"

"If I had any connection to her, I should be able to remember it."

"Then when can you recover your memory?" Lin Yusheng asked.

Jiang Cixi didn't know why the topic suddenly went off track, but to be honest, she felt quite close to this girl, so she said frankly: "I've consulted a doctor. I finally found a reliable doctor. He prescribed me some medicine. Maybe I can gradually recover my memory, but I can't say what will happen in the end."

After saying that, Jiang Cixi threw the jade token to Lin Yusheng.

Lin Yusheng took the jade token and asked in surprise, "You returned it to me?"

"Don't you want it?" Jiang Cixi raised an eyebrow and said, "I can return it to you temporarily, but you have to hold this jade token and cannot leave this castle during this period."

"why?"

"You should know how powerful this jade token is, right? Holding this jade token is equivalent to having the same power as the Jiang family elders. I don't know who you are, or why the jade token came into your hands. No one can guarantee what you will do with it after you get out, so you must stay under my nose!"

"Then when can I leave here?" Lin Yusheng asked.

"Wait until I recover my memory and make sure you're not a threat to the Jiang family," Jiang Cixi said. "And even if you leave, I want to know everything about you at all times."

After all, the Jiang family's jade token cannot be casually placed on a little girl. Even if she does not do anything bad, once it is stolen or robbed, it may threaten the safety of the entire Jiang family.

"So you have two choices. Either you leave the jade token behind and leave here, or you stay here with the jade token."

Lin Yusheng held the jade token in his hand, feeling troubled.

Jiang family...

Is the master really related to Jiang Cixi?

If she left, with her identity, she would never see Jiang Cixi again, nor would she be able to learn anything about her master from her.

If she stayed here and waited for Jiang Cixi to recover her memory, maybe Jiang Cixi could help her find her master.

After much deliberation, Lin Yusheng made a decision, "I choose to stay here for now."

Jiang Cixi was not surprised at Lin Yusheng's answer at all, but she knew very well that the reason this girl chose to stay was probably because she wanted to use her to find her missing master.

However, Jiang Cixi didn't mind. It was obvious that this girl cared about her master very much. If she and her master were really old acquaintances, then Lin Yusheng could be considered half her apprentice, so it would not hurt to help her find the person.

Jiang Cixi looked at the girl and narrowed her eyes. "In that case, you will live in the castle. You are not allowed to leave without my permission."

After saying that, Jiang Cixi walked straight into the castle.

Lin Yusheng followed Jiang Cixi into the castle.

Li Fei went back to the gate to see Xu Lin.

Xu Lingang had just been severely whipped ten times, and now there wasn't a single piece of good flesh on his entire back.

He lay on the ground, unable to move, and several guards were comforting him and applying medicine to him.

Xu Lin grimaced in pain.

Seeing this, Li Fei walked over quickly and asked worriedly, "Xu Lin, are you okay?"

Xu Lin cried out in pain, "Brother Li! This whip hurts so much! Why did you just say ten whips? I'm half dead!"

Li Fei was helpless. "You did something wrong. If you can't calm Miss Cixi down, she will really make you pack up and leave. You don't want to leave here, do you? I have no choice. No matter what, Miss Cixi won't chase you away now."

Xu Lin gasped in pain and asked, "Have you figured out which elder lost the jade token?"

Li Fei shook his head. "The jade token doesn't belong to any elder, but to Miss Cixi."

"How dare she steal Miss Cixi's things!" Xu Lin gritted his teeth and said, "How is Miss Cixi going to deal with her?"

"Miss Cixi didn't intend to do anything to her because she said she didn't steal the jade token, but it was given to her by a master."

"What?! She actually dared to lie?" Xu Lin couldn't believe it. He was furious. "How could Miss Cixi believe her lies? She must have stolen the things!"

Li Fei didn't understand why Miss Cixi, who was always suspicious, had a different attitude towards that girl. He just said, "Miss Cixi will naturally make her own decision. This is not something you and I should worry about."

"And Miss Cixi has already let the girl stay in the castle. She should be staying here for the time being."

Xu Lin's face darkened when he heard this. "How can this be? She stole something, and Miss Cixi not only didn't punish her, but also let her stay here. What does this mean?"
