Han Cuiyin cursed angrily and chewed on a fried small silver fish viciously.

"Why did I take your hairpin?" Luo Jingqian looked up and glanced at her. The hairpin in her hair was the one from Chang Le County. "Where is your other hairpin?"

Although this hairpin is shaped like a lotus seedpod, it has no perforated decorations in the seedpod area, and it is the one that he "bought" from him.

"That one's been put away!"

The mention of hairpins made Han Cuiyin feel somewhat depressed.

One by one, they stared at the hairpin, recognizing her by the hairpin.

No matter how important it was, she dared not wear it anymore. Later, she made it into a pendant and wore it around her neck, hiding it in her clothes. People wouldn't recognize it when they saw it; it was a completely different style.

The nine-hole lotus hairpin was Qingyun's possession. After coming here, she became its owner. In the Realm of Immortality, Qingyun specially crafted it for her, and after many twists and turns, it still ended up in her hands.

However, since there are suspected traces of Qingyun on the island, and they will meet again in the future, they will not be able to return the item to its rightful owner. She can only provide other compensation.

If the two of them have the chance to return to the Realm of Immortality, Ren Qingyun can choose one of the treasures in the Lotus Sea of ​​the Buddha Pool.

In an instant, Han Cuiyin's dark face changed expression several times.

Luo Jingqian quickly noticed and began to comfort them, "Don't worry, they won't dare to do anything reckless. Just say it's a gift from me, and they won't dare to openly rob you once they know."

They dare not openly rob, but they dare to steal secretly. After what happened on the Ghost Festival, what is there that some people wouldn't dare to do?

She now suspects that the person behind this is Mo Changdao.

That's what she thought, and that's what she said: "Senior Xu was sent away, and Mo Changdao kept telling him to suspect the Emperor. Do you think the person behind this might be him?"

"Mo Changdao, the Imperial Preceptor?" Luo Jingqian hesitated. "It shouldn't be! He has always been loyal to the royal family, and his ancestors were meritorious in supporting the emperor. He wouldn't do such a thing."

Han Cuiyin sneered, "You can't judge a book by its cover! Xu Tianyun is already suspected of being lured away from his post. That guy surnamed Mo keeps pointing out the Emperor's faults. You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub. What is Xu Tianyun? Is he worth the Emperor exchanging three of his sons for?"

"Also, what happened to these noble ladies this time might not have been orchestrated. Especially that Madam Luo the Second, we should thoroughly investigate whether anyone around her is missing."

"Didn't you say that these powerful and influential people in the capital rarely go to Qingshuang Mountain during the Ghost Festival? Their sudden arrival here this time may not be a coincidence."

"Also, does His Majesty have any plans?"

Luo Jingqian stared at the two people talking, his expression gradually turning cold. "Who knows?"

Han Cuiyin wasn't stupid, just lazy. Back in the Realm of Immortality, she would have already taken action with her wooden fish, and those conspiracies would have been thwarted.

It's different here.

There are many constraints, so you have to use your brain; otherwise, you won't even know how you disappeared.

"I remember Han Zhen saved a junior member of Mo Changdao's family. Have you seen that person? Extending one's life isn't something that can be done in a short time. Also, what is the lifespan of the Mo family members?"

Han Cuiyin still felt that Mo Changdao was the most suspicious person in this matter.

Furthermore, the fact that she could see through Han Jiameng's punishment shows that she is no ordinary person at the Innate Realm.

"I have never heard of anyone from the Mo family dying young. They all live very long lives, but they don't have many children and they are also widowed. So there aren't many families that associate with them."

Luo Jingqian only knew bits and pieces from other people's words and didn't understand many things.

Now that we have suspicions, we should thoroughly investigate the Mo family in the future.

"Don't get involved in this matter! If it really is the Mo family causing trouble behind the scenes, then what's on the surface is just a facade. When my fellow disciples arrive, have them continue to keep an eye on the Mo family. In the next couple of days, have Qingyun investigate. He's a new face, so he won't attract attention."

The Mo family followed the Zhao family in conquering the country. Back then, a very promising member of the Mo family used supernatural means for the sake of the Great Ye Dynasty.

Those karmic consequences fell upon the Mo family, and over the generations, resentment accumulated. Who knows what the remaining members of the Mo family might be thinking?

However, Luo Jingqian did not mention these things, lest Han Cuiyin, out of boredom, interfere again.

Having spent time with her these past few days, I've come to realize that Han Cuiyin, despite her aloof demeanor, is actually quite the lively one. Since I don't have any spiritual power right now, it's best not to let her know.

"What happened this Ghost Festival might also have been man-made disasters in the past few years. The Zhao family of the Daye Dynasty has been burdened with the blame for divine punishment for so long, they probably won't let it go so easily, and there will likely be more chaos in the future. You should have a good discussion with the Grand Princess, and it would be best if you didn't return to the capital recently."

Han Cuiyin thought of Princess Jinghe and felt a certain fondness for her.

In addition, the Luo sisters and Princess Changyun had treated her very well in her previous life, so she only advised Luo Jingqian a few times because of something else.

I silently recited the mind-clearing mantra several times in my mind before I calmed down.

Luo Jingqian simply nodded without saying anything more, his brows furrowed.

"Why don't we rest here today and see how things go tomorrow before making any plans?" Han Cuiyin didn't want to go to the other courtyard right now; she wanted to stay here and see how things developed.

“Okay, then... why don’t you go and rest in the guest room first?” Luo Jingqian clapped his hands, and a woman dressed as a nanny entered the courtyard.

"Take Miss Han to the guest courtyard to rest, and prepare some delicious food for her early tomorrow morning. Also, don't let anyone in the manor say that we are here."

After bowing, the old woman led Han Cuiyin out.

After tidying up, Han Cuiyin lay on the bed, overwhelmed with mixed feelings.

The old woman who led the way was also an old friend. She never expected that seeing her again after a thousand years would not stir any waves in her heart.

As long as this person doesn't cause trouble in this life, she won't take the initiative to deal with her. After all, when the incident happened, only this old woman spoke up for her.

Returning to the old place, everything has changed, but the people are gone.

Unable to sleep, Han Cuiyin tossed and turned, looking at the images of the stone beads belonging to the Han family.

At first, you could see people from each courtyard packing up and preparing to leave for another courtyard; nothing unusual happened.

She was about to look at what had happened in the past two days when the screen went completely black.

"Hehe, it seems he's managed to get rid of those stone beads. Mo Changdao is no ordinary person; I underestimated him before."

Both Mo Changdao and Xu Tianyun visited the Han family, but when the two compared, it was clear that Mo Changdao was more skilled.

I had dealt with Xu Tianyun at Qingshuang Mountain before. He was a skilled fighter who was quite pragmatic but had a short temper.

Moreover, since Han Zhen sent Da Ni to Xu Tianyun's residence, she would be more likely to know if there were any unexpected developments there.

Han Cuiyin finally felt sleepy as dawn approached.

Han Yueshi is another person like her.

Han Family Village.

"Your injuries are quite serious. For the next few days, avoid riding horses and avoid any bumpy rides. It would be best to rest here for a while and then go back later."

Lianyao placed the person on the bed, casually gave a few instructions, and then crawled into the auspicious cloud patterned bottle, preparing to interrogate the bald-tailed fox.

“I’ll go in with you! Recovery is much faster in there. I’ll go there to recuperate, and I should be better in three or four days.”

Han Yueshi quickly stuffed the pillow under the thin blanket, pretending that she was the one lying down.

"Are you sure? There's no going back now!" Lianyao said meaningfully.

"Why turn back?" Han Yueshi didn't think much of it. Her little bottle was no ordinary object. "Recovering from my injuries is the priority. The Mid-Autumn Festival banquet is in a month, and I can't miss it."
