After His Majesty was reborn, the poor little girl in his previous life was spoiled to death

Bai Juan opened her mouth and looked at Madam Liu in shock. Before the autopsy, she had explained to Shen Chongyao that Zhu Xiao was not wearing this dress during the day!

Does this mean that Zhu Xiao has been targeted since then?

Shen Chongyao's eyebrows moved, and he gave Bai Juan a very covert look, signaling her to be patient, and calmly changed the subject: "Liu, when did you find out that the sunflower gold hairpin was no longer on your head?"

Matron Liu was stunned for a moment. In fact, it was not until she saw the twisted gold hairpin that she realized she had lost it at some point.

But saying this would obviously be disadvantageous to her. She suddenly thought that since the old lady had also lost her treasure, she might as well put the blame on the thief for the hairpin.

She racked her brains and said, "I found out it was missing when I sealed the house. But there was a lot of noise in the house at that time, and the old lady had lost such a treasure. I only lost a golden hairpin, so I didn't dare to make it public. I just thought that once the thief was caught, the truth would come out. Then I can slowly look for it."

When she said this, Xiu Yu's eyes moved, and she was immediately certain that Liu Kui was lying, but at this time she could only pretend not to know and let her put the blame on the non-existent thief.

Shen Chongyao keenly noticed that there was something fishy in what Madam Liu said. Just think about it, since the thief was targeting the old lady's priceless treasure box, how could he be interested in something on a wet nurse's head?

But he was not in a hurry to expose it. Instead, he followed up and asked a question that he really cared about: "You spied on her again and again tonight..."

Shen Chongyao changed his tone and pointed at Ning'er who was leaning against Madam Zhu's side. He asked quickly and urgently, not giving Liu Kui any chance to think: "Do you know Miss Ning?"

Liu Kui had just told a lie and was feeling guilty and uneasy. Unexpectedly, he was asked about his most vulnerable point. He was dumbfounded and speechless for a while!

Everyone couldn't help but be shocked. They were trying Zhu Xiao's case, why did it suddenly involve Miss Ning?

But looking at Nanny Liu's reaction, could it be that the Second Master was right?

Ning'er's heart began to beat violently. She didn't expect that the problem that had been on her mind could be solved so easily by Shen Chongyao!

Nervousness, excitement, uneasiness, and a hint of fear, unspeakable emotions lingered in her heart, and for a moment she even had the urge to turn around and leave.

Ning'er's hands couldn't help but tightly grasp the ring that Chu Huan tied around her waist. Only then did she barely suppress her thoughts. At least she didn't show any flaws on her face and forced herself to sit still.

She stared intently at Madam Liu's face, which was slightly distorted with fear, and waited eagerly for her response.

Liu Kui wanted to dodge, but was caught by her gaze and was forced to look back at her.

Those long and beautiful eyes, with heavy eyelashes, almost blocked half of the light. Her eyebrows and eyes were so unique, when she smiled, she was like a pool of spring water, but when she didn't smile, she had a cold light, just looking at him quietly.

Her skin was so white, almost transparent, which made her lips look even more rosy. However, due to lack of blood and a frail body, her skin was never rosy enough, and instead appeared a more pitiful pale pink.

Such a face, such a face...

impossible.

Liu Kui's heart was trembling. The last time she saw her, she had such a beautiful and sad face!

Shen Chongyao repeated without hesitation: "Do you know Miss Ning?"

Every word struck Liu Kui's heart.

She said with difficulty: "I have never seen it, let alone know it."

lie!

There was no need for anyone to say more, Ning Er answered confidently in her heart, "She must have seen me, no, or rather, it was not me she had seen, but my mother!"

At this moment, she forgot all the heavy rain that filled the sky and earth, the dangerous night, the magnificent mansion, the horrific murder case.

Without anyone noticing, Ning'er's hands were trembling slightly.

Caught!

It's like searching for countless days and nights in the dense forest in the severe winter, and finally finding the traces of prey on the snow under the moonlight. Although you can't catch it immediately, you finally don't have to chase it endlessly.

Shen Chongyao was naturally unaware of Ning'er's mixed feelings, but his primary task was to ensure Ning'er's safety. Now that he had determined that Madam Liu was a dangerous person, he naturally had to get rid of her completely without leaving any hidden dangers:

"If you don't know her? Why do you keep peeping at her? Isn't it more important to clear yourself of suspicion than to meet a strange lady?"

This question left Madam Liu speechless. Luo Miaoyun was confused by the scene before her eyes. She and Madam Liu had been together for many years and were as close as mother and daughter. She knew very well that she was just pretending to be calm.

She couldn't help but look at Ning'er carefully, but she couldn't see anything unusual about this little girl.

"Second Master, I think that Madam Liu may not be lying." No one expected that at this critical moment, it would be Madam Ye who stood up to speak for Liu Kui.

She still looked gentle and docile, but no one looked down on her anymore: "Ms. Ning is only thirteen years old at most, and she came all the way from Jiangdu to the capital in the first month of the year. Madam Liu hasn't been to the mansion for a long time, so even if she wanted to get to know her, she couldn't!"

"Mother Liu, don't you think so?"

Madam Liu didn't understand what was going on. She was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. When she heard someone trying to excuse her, she agreed without thinking, "That's right, that's right. How did this old servant know this Miss Ning? I don't even know her name. Please understand, old lady!"

Shen Chongyao looked at Madam Liu suspiciously, then glanced at Concubine Ye indifferently, muttering in his heart, how come she is standing over there again in such a short while?

Liu Kui didn't know that Ye Zhen's words had a very sinister intention. She had already vaguely guessed Ning'er's origins.

Except for Shen Chongyao, who among the people standing in this room now doesn't know that Ning'er's identity as Miss Jiangdu was fabricated by the old lady just to gild her reputation?

The more readily Nanny Liu agreed, the more suspicious Madam Zhu became.

If things go wrong, this suspicion may spread from her to Luo Miaoyun, the eldest lady of Xinyuan Marquis' Mansion.

Who made you her closest nanny? So close that a single glance from her could make you kill an innocent child, thinking that nothing could be known and that your actions were flawless.

He turned around and said to himself with a look of sorrow: "Aunt, please accept my condolences... Life and death are determined by fate. This child is unlucky and has not been able to enjoy such a great blessing... You are still young. If you lose this one, as long as you serve the lady and the marquis well, are you afraid that there will be no next one?"

An'er was already five years old at that time, well-behaved, sensible, and lively. When he saw you, he would sweetly call you, "Grandma Liu."

Thinking of this, Ye Zhen showed a very sweet smile on her face.
