Chapter 817 Tired

It is true that when Meng Shisan said that to Chang'an, he had already made a plan in his mind: "The Eighteenth Scholar is a camellia, which likes a warm, humid, and semi-shaded growing environment. It is afraid of high temperatures and the scorching sun, and is in a semi-shaded and semi-sunned state."

Chang An understood: "Miss, do you want the Eighteenth Scholar to go down and investigate? Will he be willing?"

"I will." Whether willing or not, Meng Shisan did not intend to let the flower demon do what he wanted. "That's for later. Xiaoqing may not be in the well. We have to look for her again."

Changan nodded.

As soon as the master and servant walked out of Taiyong Palace, they met Li Shouchangqing unexpectedly.

They can see them, they can't see them.

Meng Shisan looked towards Li Shou but didn't see Ji Kuan, so it was obvious that he had gone out to do errands.

Li Shou walked past her and almost bumped into her. She quickly turned sideways. Of course, there was no way he would really bump into her because of the invisibility effect of the barrier. The most Li Shou could do was pass through her.

But she still subconsciously avoided it.

She watched him walk into the dormitory at the back, thought for a moment and decided not to follow him.

However, just as she was about to leave the East Palace and continue to look for the water snake outside the East Palace, Li Shou's words floated into her ears: "Did Tongchen report back any news about Zeng's death that year?"

Zeng?

Why would His Highness investigate the death of her biological mother in this human body? Could it be that His Highness knows something about what happened back then?
Meng Shisan stood still, calculating that Li Shou was only nine years old at the time, so this should not be possible. However, he remembered that Li Shou had dreamed of some strange things since he was a child, such as fishing with fingers, and that when he was ten years old, he was almost led into the bottom of a well and drowned in his dream. One strange thing would be fine, but one after another happened, which made people suspicious.

When Chang'an heard the word Zeng, he remained silent and stood there with Yu, wanting to hear what Changqing would say next.

Chang Qing replied, "There is no news yet. It was only reported that besides Tongchen, there seemed to be someone else investigating what happened back then. After Tongchen noticed it, he also checked it out, but found nothing. Instead, there was no trace at all. Even the slight trace that made Tongchen suspect that there was someone investigating was wiped out after he checked it out."

"This was discovered by the other party during the counter-investigation." Li Shou concluded.

Chang Qing said: "Yes, Tong Chen also said so."

Li Shou warned: "Be more careful next time."

Chang Qing agreed and said that he would convey Li Shou's order to Tongchen.

Next, Li Shou rubbed his brows and let Chang Qing undress him while he was exhausted.

It's time to take a break.

When Meng Shisan realized this, she did not wait any longer. She took Chang'an out of the East Palace and continued to look for the water snake outside.

The palace was huge, and Meng Shisan soon got tired of walking around. Chang'an suggested, "Miss, how about letting me cast a big spell to search the entire palace at once?"

"Although the spell of seeking and guiding is not difficult, the palace is so large that it requires a lot of demonic power. Recently, because of the healing spells used on Baozhu and Fengzheng to connect their tendons and heal their injuries, your demonic power has been greatly reduced. You are also busy following me everywhere, and you have no time to practice properly." Meng Shisan meant, "After performing this spell of seeking and guiding, are you sure you can still follow me around?"

Chang An thought for a while and said, "...It won't be a problem to send the young lady back to Meng's house safely tonight. As for tomorrow, I'm afraid there will be a short period of time when I can no longer be with the young lady all the time."

Just as her master said, after casting this spell, she needs to stay in seclusion for a while.

Meng Shisan nodded: "Okay."

Chang'an no longer held back, and with both hands she formed the spell of the seeking and attracting technique, opening and closing it. After more than ten breaths, the technique gradually extended outwards with her as the center, expanding inch by inch, slowly spreading to the entire palace.

The whole process of spreading and searching was slow and boring. The next day, when Shangchun found that Chang'an did not come out for breakfast, she knocked on Chang'an's door in person, but did not hear Chang'an answer the door for a long time.

Meng Shisan saw this and said on behalf of Changan: "From today on, Changan needs to be in seclusion. Don't worry about when she eats, drinks, sleeps, or wakes up."

Shangchun turned around and said, "Yes."

Jin Yin heard this and asked Meng Shisan, "Miss, why does Chang'an need to be in seclusion?"

Shangchun also wanted to know the reason, so he did not leave, but walked closer to Jinyin and stood together, waiting to hear what Meng Shisan would say.

"There is always a closed door sometimes during the martial arts competition in Chang'an." Meng Shisan did not elaborate, but only gave an official answer. According to her own body, this was often the case.

Chang'an was used to it, and she was used to it too.

"Oh." Jin Yin nodded, but even though she nodded, she didn't really understand. So she turned her head to look at Shangchun, thinking that Shangchun might be able to help her sort things out.

However, Shangchun only had a vague idea of ​​the problem. She did not ask Meng Shisan any more questions, nor did she say anything to Jinyin. She just went on her way.

Soon, all the servants in Taichen Courtyard knew that Miss Chang'an was in seclusion, and no one was allowed to disturb her. This was passed down by Changchun according to Meng Shisan's instructions.

After hearing this, Gao Jin reported it to Meng Renping without thinking.

Although Meng Renping had doubts in his heart, he didn't have the extra time to care about a maid.

In fact, if Chang'an was not a capable person around his eldest cousin, Gao Jin would not have reported such trivial matters to him after hearing about them.

Then he thought of the orb and the kite.

Baozhu Fengzheng was seriously injured because of her eldest cousin. Now Chang'an is in seclusion again. Although her eldest cousin said it was a small seclusion, could it be that Chang'an was also injured for some reason and that is why he has to go into seclusion?

With this suspicion, Meng Renping quickly asked Gao Yuan to return home and asked Gao Jin to ask if it was really the reason he thought.

After Gao Yuan left, Gao Jin rushed into Taichen Courtyard.

He was also an acquaintance in Taichen Courtyard. Following the guidance of the servants, he came to the back room and saw Meng Shisan squatting in front of a long strip of reclaimed land, playing with a handful of black-red soil in his hands.

He walked closer and squatted down: "Miss."

"Hmm." Meng Shisan looked at the soil in his hand and hummed lightly without raising his head.

Gao Jin had dealt with Meng Shisan a lot and knew that his eldest daughter was straightforward most of the time, especially in her own mansion.

So he conveyed Meng Renping's doubts directly without any embellishment.

Meng Shisan glanced at Gao Jin and said, "Brother, did you know about what happened this morning so quickly?"

Gao Jin smiled shyly and raised his right hand timidly: "I heard about it early in the morning and passed the news to the palace. Soon Gao Yuan also passed on the young master's intention."

"Gao Yuan just left not long ago?"

"I guess we haven't reached the palace yet."

Meng Shisan admired Gao Jin's honesty in front of her and his dedication to her work, so she naturally wouldn't embarrass him at this moment: "He's not hurt, he's just tired."
