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

Ning Er said, "It's Qiu Yun."

Qiu Jun? Shen Chongyan was startled. Isn't that the head maid in Cangbai Hall and Cheng Ying's personal maid?

Ning Er nodded and said casually, "She is the maid in Master Chengying's courtyard. Not long ago, she was punished by the Master and his wife and was sent to the laundry room."

From the head maid to the lowest rank of roughneck, this punishment is not light. But what Shen Chongyan is concerned about is: "Why did you go to find her?"

Ning Er said calmly: "Because I saw it with my own eyes, she was involved in the fire in the Marquis' Mansion."

Shen Chongyan was surprised and said, "The mansion is on fire!"

Ning Er was also surprised: "You didn't know?" She came to her senses: "That's right, you are sick now, the old lady will naturally hide this from you."

She seemed to have let it slip accidentally.

Seeing that Ning'er was safe and sound and everything in the house was functioning normally, Shen Chongyan knew that the fire should not be a big deal, but he still couldn't help but worry: "Are you hurt? What happened? Where did it burn? Is everything okay in your room?"

Ning'er's heart suddenly became reassured. She smiled and said, "I'm sitting right in front of you, what else could possibly happen? I'm fine, so the old lady is naturally fine. The fire broke out in Xixi Courtyard, and it was put out last night. Apart from the two gatekeepers who were injured, there were no other casualties. But the yard was badly burned and almost became an empty space."

The Marquis finally reacted: "Then how could the girl you mentioned earlier be related to the fire? Could it be that the fire was not an accident, but a human accident?"

"Whether it was an accident or not, I can't say for sure." Ning'er whispered, "But on the night of the incident, she was near the fire scene, acting sneakily. I saw it with my own eyes."

Shen Chongyan said, "The fire scene is so dangerous, how can you just get close to it?"

Ning Er was stunned for a moment before she smiled and said, "How can you put the cart before the horse and care about such trivial matters?"

"No." Shen Chongyan interrupted her: "Your safety is no small matter. Whether the fire was caused by human beings or by accident, we can slowly investigate it, but human mistakes cannot be undone!"

Ning Er suddenly laughed out loud: "My Lord, I told you that you were wrong, but you still don't believe me?"

Shen Chongyan looked at her in confusion, not knowing why Ning'er suddenly said that.

She said frankly: "You and I are just casual acquaintances, yet you still have such compassion for an orphan girl. How could such a person be a cold-blooded and heartless person as you said before?"

Shen Chongyan was speechless for a moment.

Ning Er didn't dwell on this topic any further: "Aren't you going to ask Qiu Yun?"

Shen Chongyan pondered, "So, after you saw her last night, she was not in the mansion today?"

Ning Er praised: "My Lord, you are wise! Everyone knows that she offended the master and was punished to go to the laundry. But today, the second master and I searched everywhere there, but we couldn't find any trace of her."

She moved closer and whispered, "That's why I suspect that it was Madam Li who protected Qiu Jun."

She pointed to the south and said, "Just now, in the back house to the south of your courtyard, the Second Master and I met Madam Li."

Shen Chongyan asked: "Is it her?"

Ning'er smiled, "The Second Master was very angry. She refused to admit it at first, until the end. She was a distant relative of Master Chengying's wet nurse, Li, and had concealed her identity and entered the mansion for many years, and secretly planned to get a position as a housekeeper. So as for Qiu Yun, she was brought into the laundry room and then quietly sent out without even being listed on the list."

"So she insisted that she knew nothing about Qiujun's whereabouts. She didn't know where she went, nor did she know what she had done during this period of time."

Shen Chongyan frowned and said, "She is such a cunning person, her words cannot be trusted."

Ning Er said, "The Second Master said the same thing. But she refused to speak. If she wants to find Qiu Jun, she can only ask Madam Li. But," she looked at the Marquis, "Madam Li is not an ordinary servant. She is Master Ying's wet nurse. Logically, only you, Madam Luo and the old lady can interrogate her."

Shen Chongyan said without hesitation: "Then go ask her and tell her it was my idea. There's no need to ask the old lady."

"But, can you tell me why you care about Qiu Yun so much?"

Ning'er sat quietly in front of his couch, her posture elegant, looking like a real lady from a noble family. She lowered her eyelashes slightly and said softly: "I don't care about her, but my mother."
