Murong Che said: "Old Madam, don't blame yourself."

"The matter is over."

"But Mi'er's Gu has not been cured yet, so I'm afraid she and I will have to get married early."

Old Madam Shen was silent for a moment and sighed.

"The Crown Prince and the Queen have just left not long ago. If you get married, Your Highness will probably be blamed by His Majesty."

Murong Che lowered his eyes and looked at Shen Mi beside him.

"It doesn't matter."

I can't just watch Shen Mi turn into a pool of blood.

Old Madam Shen and everyone in the Shen family only knew that in order to remove the poison, Shen Mi needed to perform the Zhougong ritual with others.

But no one knows what the spring silkworm will bring to the person who removes the poison after it is removed.

Shen Mi stood there, feeling increasingly uneasy.

Old Madam Shen sighed and said, "In that case, let's find a fortune teller to match your birth dates and pick an auspicious day."

"Mi'er has grown up and has a husband like Prince Rui. No one in Yanjing City dares to hurt her."

"That's what the old lady said."

At this moment, Shen Li, Zhang Huaian, Shen Feng and Shen Yu came over.

Shen Li walked to Shen Mi's side and saw that she was worried.

"Mi'er, have you found the mother Gu?"

Shen Mi shook her head: "Ruyixuan, there is no third floor at all, Sang Ning lied to us."

Shen Li comforted her: "Don't worry."

"Now that Sang Ning is dead, it proves that the mother Gu will not live long."

But the more Shen Li comforted Shen Mi, the more uneasy Shen Mi felt.

After the woodshed was cleaned up, the charred body was carried out of the house and buried.

Old Madam Shen asked someone to invite a Taoist priest overnight to perform a ritual in the Shen family's firewood room.

Late at night, Murong Che followed Shen Mi and entered the Lanyue Courtyard with her.

"Fourth Master."

Shen Mi turned around and met Murong Che's dark eyes.

The candlelight in the room flickered slightly, making Murong Che's handsome face look even more beautiful.

He raised his eyebrows and smiled: "What? Don't you want to marry me?"

Shen Mi was silent for a moment, then asked: "Have you made up your mind, Fourth Master?"

"Of course I've thought about it." Murong Che said, sitting on a chair next to him.

He leaned back in his chair nonchalantly, reaching out for a piece of cake and tasting it.

"When I was in Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion, I was the one who cured you of the love poison."

"Now, I have to solve it."

Shen Mi pursed her lips, walked over and sat next to him.

"Now the Queen and the Crown Prince have just passed away, and they are still in mourning."

"If you marry me, you will definitely be criticized by the world."

"It will also make His Majesty angry."

Murong Che smiled and said, "During the mourning period for the Queen and the Crown Prince, you and I should hold a wedding to celebrate."

"I'll pick you up another day."

Murong Che reached out and grabbed Shen Mi's hand, raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

"Now, there are more important things to do."

Shen Mi frowned, "Fourth Master, what's the matter?"

Murong Che lowered his eyes, looked at the little girl's slender white fingers, and reached out to caress them for a while.

"Your hand is very beautiful."

"It's a pity that I have never killed anyone myself or stained my body with blood."

"Why not give you a chance now?"

"I remember that I once gave you a hidden weapon in a ring. Do you remember?"

Shen Mi nodded, "Fourth Master wants me to use that hidden weapon to kill someone."

Murong Che said: "Tomorrow, I will ask Ghost Thousand Faces Hongluan to come to the Shen family."

"Talk to her and Yun Lan about going to the envoy's post station. The secret guards will also assist you."

"When the time comes, you will kill those who have hurt you with your own hands."

Shen Mi had heard of the Thousand-Faced Envoy Hongluan, who was a member of the Ghost Killing Sect.

He is clever and intelligent, best at disguise and imitation, and also a ventriloquist.

Her imitation is so good that no one can detect it.

She is under the command of the Fourth Master.

Shen Mi took out the hidden weapon from his sleeve.

"I'm keeping the things that the Fourth Master gave me. I'm planning to use them in the next few days."

"I didn't expect that the Fourth Master had the same idea as me."

She curled her lips, "In the past, the Fourth Master didn't want blood on my hands."

"Now I am asked to kill someone on my own initiative."

Murong Che raised his eyebrows and looked at her: "Because of Luo Yihuan, damn it."

"I still remember what she did to you when she was away from home."

"Now, you kill her with your own hands, which can be regarded as revenge."

Shen Mi said: "I understand, Fourth Master."

Murong Che stood up from the chair and looked at Shen Mi with a raised lip.

"I wanted to stay here, but it's against the rules after all."

"I can only pick you up another day."

"Hongluan, tomorrow, it's up to you to arrange it."

Shen Mi nodded, "Yes."

After Shen Mi fell asleep, Murong Che blew out the candle for her and then turned and left the Shen family.

Late at night, the candlelight was still burning in the study of Prince Rui's mansion.

In the inner room, a woman knelt in front of Murong Che.

The woman was about twenty years old, wearing dark blue clothes and had a dagger at her waist.

Her facial features are distinct, and although she is not stunningly beautiful, she is pretty.

This person was none other than Hongluan, the Thousand-Faced Envoy of the Demon Slayer Gate.

Hongluan is the Thousand-Faced Envoy of the Ghost Slayer Gate. She is best at disguise and semblance. She is agile and her martial arts skills are better than Yunlan's.

"My Lord, please give me your orders."

Murong Che sat on the chair and looked at her with raised eyebrows.

"Get up."

Hongluan stood up, with some doubts.

"My Lord, you summoned me here yesterday. Is there something important?"

Murong Che's face was calm as he picked up a token from the desk.

"I will personally give this Ghost Slayer Gate token to Shen Mi in a few days."

"From now on, you stay with her."

"No matter what happens in the future, you will be hers in life and hers in death. You will obey her in everything."

"Tomorrow, I'll have someone take you to the Shen family. She has something important to tell you."

Hongluan nodded: "Yes, my lord."
