Chapter 55
Han Lingxi was about to ask the system to give Mrs. Ding Guo a hallucinogenic potion, when Mrs. Ding Guo said sharply.

"Kneel down."

Si Hua knelt down in response, and Han Lingxi outside the screen was also startled, forgetting what she wanted to say to the system for a moment.

Han Lingxi looked at Si Hua and really felt pain for her. She also felt that she was worthy of being a trained slave, and she knelt down when asked without any ambiguity.

"Say, where did Miss go?"

Mrs. Dingguo continued to ask, Han Lingxi was really scared this time. Could it be that Mrs. Dingguo already knew about her departure, so let's see if it is still useful to use the hallucinogenic potion now.

Si Hua faltered and didn't know what to say.

"Tell me honestly, otherwise I will sell you out now. Don't forget that although you are in Huguo Temple, you are also a slave of Duke Dingguo."

Mrs. Dingguo is usually too kind, Han Lingxi almost forgot her iron and blood methods in the backyard, now she has seen it, and her momentum is extraordinary.

Si Hua obviously knew the consequences of angering his wife, so she said tremblingly.

"Miss went to Zhongjing County to look for Mr. Su."

When Siqin knew what had happened, she fell off the bed, tore the bed curtains, and knelt at the feet of Mrs. Dingguo.

Mrs. Dingguo was obviously very angry, and after calming down, she continued to ask.

"When did Miss leave?"

Seeing Siqin bowing her head and not speaking, Si Hua could only bite the bullet and continue talking.

"Miss left on the way to Huguo Temple."

"Did you ever say when you'd be back?"

"Never."

After Si Hua finished speaking, he was so frightened that he trembled all over, knocked his head on the ground, and did not dare to get up.

Mrs. Dingguo was silent for a long time. The more she remained silent, the more frightened Sihua and Siqin were. However, they could only kneel on the ground and wait for the unknown future. Han Lingxi even felt guilty because she was the one who planned the escape. However, two little maids have to shoulder the responsibility.

"I came to visit Xi'er. I just felt a cold occasionally. It's not serious. It will be better tomorrow."

Mrs. Dingguo spoke suddenly after being silent, but Si Hua and Siqin didn't understand what the lady meant and looked up at her.

"Do what you're supposed to do, understand?"

Mrs. Dingguo's voice was very soft, but it made people feel the majesty in it. Sihua and Siqin nodded quickly.

Mrs. Dingguo walked out, and even ordered her servants to bring a new bed curtain.Si Hua and Si Qin didn't understand what Madam meant, but they followed Madam's orders.

Han Lingxi, who was thousands of miles away, was very moved when she saw this scene. In this era when women are just accessories, even noble daughters from aristocratic families are just tools for marriage, but Mrs. Han can risk the crime of deceiving the king to plan for her daughter, so that Han Lingxi truly felt loved.

When Mrs. Dingguo found out that her daughter had escaped, her first thought was not to retrieve her daughter, but to help her conceal it, so that her daughter could not bear the responsibility of resisting the decree. In doing so, she acquiesced to Han Lingxi's choice. From now on, Han Lingxi would only Only by marrying Su Fengcheng can this matter be concealed from the past.

Su Fengcheng is just a guilty minister now, Han Lingxi's marriage to him will not do any good to Duke Dingguo's government, and it will even be implicated. Madam still agreed, just because Han Lingxi wanted it at that time.

Han Lingxi resisted the urge to cry and secretly swore in her heart that no matter what, she would keep the Dingguo Palace and never let the Dingguo Palace decline like in her previous life and become a family that everyone could step on.
