After rebirth, she became the favorite of the powerful minister.

Yuan Ge knew that there must be something fishy about Murong Shaorou's death, but he still felt uneasy when he heard someone speak so confidently.

With such obvious evidence, how did the court close the case so hastily, and how did they convince Wen Changling? The stepmother said that Wen Changling didn't believe it, but officials in the court always have too many things that they can't help, and he couldn't do anything about it... But how could the court ignore such an obvious loophole? The Murong family, who had never been heard of, seemed to be able to cover up everything.

"My mother passed away many years ago. I was only two years old at that time, so I don't have a deep impression of her. I have occasionally thought about her over the years, and most of the time I just want to know who else is still alive from my maternal grandparents' family, and why we have never had any contact over the years." Yuan Ge raised his eyebrows to look at her and asked softly, "I heard that the Zhong family's news network is spread all over the world, and it can be said that they know everything... Then have you ever heard where my mother's ancestral home is?"

Zhong Wei shook his head. "Grandfather liked to collect and record some things. He said that the historians wrote about the major events of success and failure, but the world is more about the rise and fall of the morning and the change of the evening. He wanted to record as many specific people, events and things as possible for future generations to read. But the world is so big, and personal abilities are ultimately limited. Although he sighed and sighed about your mother's affairs for a long time, he still didn't get any more useful clues when I left my grandfather's house... I will write a letter home today, but I may not be able to help... Sorry."

"You also said that the world is so big and a person's ability is limited. In that case, there's no need to apologize. No matter what the result is, I can accept it." Yuan Ge said with a smile. The maid brought over breakfast, which was her favorite minced meat porridge, a few crystal shrimp dumplings and osmanthus steamed cakes, as well as a plate of appetizers. It was very comprehensive.

The maid said that since she didn't know what Miss Zhong liked to eat, she prepared it according to the taste of the Third Young Master's wife.

Yuan Ge took the plate and asked casually, "Is Aunt Gui busy? It's time to change her tea recipe. I'll be there soon." In the past, Aunt Gui would come to deliver the meals personally, but it was unfortunate that a little maid came today.

Who would have thought that the maid would suddenly shudder after hearing the words casually, and the bowl of porridge she was handing over slipped out of her hand, and the bowl of steaming hot meat porridge was immediately poured onto the back of Yuan Ge's hand as she stretched it out to receive it, which she had no time to dodge... The white back of her hand instantly turned red, and Shi Yin was startled. Without saying a word, she pulled Yuan Ge into the room to wash his hands. A faint complaint could be heard from the room, "What's wrong with this little maid? She's so careless that she can't even hold a bowl of porridge properly... How is Miss? Is it still painful?"

Zhong Wei walked in quickly, glanced at the red back of Yuan Ge's hand, and asked with concern, "Do you want to find a doctor? Burns are not a trivial matter."

"It's okay. I'm a doctor myself. It's okay." Yuan Ge shook the back of his hand and walked to the corridor nonchalantly. Looking at the little maid who was already kneeling there and shivering, his eyes deepened and he asked, "Where's Aunt Gui? Why did she send you here to deliver breakfast today?" It was because of this question that the little maid was so flustered that she knocked over the porridge bowl, so Yuan Ge brought up the old matter as soon as possible.

Yuan Ge recognized this maid. She was the little girl who washed vegetables for Aunt Gui. She was usually quite sharp and loved to laugh.

Today is really abnormal.

Something is not normal...there must be something wrong.

The maid trembled more and more violently. After a long while, she said hesitantly, "My cousin is here. She specifically asked for the lotus cake made by Aunt Gui. Aunt Gui is busy in the small kitchen... Madam, I deserve to die. Please punish me!"

Yuan Ge lowered his eyes, "Cousin? Is she the daughter of Song Wenyuan's uncle? The one Lin Mu went to pick up?"

"Yes……"

It was really early. We hadn't even had breakfast yet, but the people there had already been picked up. Yuan Ge pressed his lips, his unhappy expression becoming more obvious, and asked, "Where will she live after she arrives?"

"My cousin came to stay for a while before, and she lived in Qichi Pavilion... Madam, please don't misunderstand, the young master lived in Luofeng Pavilion at that time. It was only after your wedding that Qichi Pavilion became the young master's... study." The maid seemed to have a sudden flash of inspiration, and swallowed the "residence" that was on the tip of her mouth with a mouthful of saliva, and then said, "I don't know where my cousin is staying this time."

That's quite good. There are so many nice courtyards around Lixue Hall, but she had to live in such a remote corner. This time, she went to Qichi Pavilion to eat lotus cakes. The girl's thoughts were really exposed in front of her, the legitimate wife.

The timing is good as I am having an unpleasant argument with Song Wenyuan.

Yuan Ge pulled the corner of his mouth, "I know, you get up and bring another bowl of porridge."

The other party was still in shock, and having survived a disaster, she seemed to be in disbelief. She stared blankly and called out, "Young Madam... please, please punish me! Please, please don't chase me away..."

"Okay, go ahead." Yuan Ge waved her hand casually, the back of her hand was still red, she didn't hide it, and said casually, "I won't chase you away. I'm not some pampered empress in the harem who can't be touched or hurt. I won't punish you for such a small matter. Go down and bring the porridge. I'm hungry."

The little maid was stunned for a moment, and it took her a long time to react. She kowtowed hurriedly to thank him, then stood up and ran to serve the porridge - in fact, she had always been afraid of Yuan Ge. The fact that this young lady had driven Qiu Ju away with the words "your name contains the character 'ju', and your zodiac sign is unlucky for me" had always frightened these little maids. They were afraid that if they displeased this young mistress, she would find a perfunctory excuse to drive her away.

Zhong Wei was watching from the side. They were all girls of marriageable age from aristocratic families, and they all knew about some of the things that happened in the inner courtyard and the backyard. However, since it was someone else's family affairs, it was not appropriate to interfere too much. She only looked at Yuan Ge with concern, "Are you... okay?"

It seemed like he was asking about the hand, but also like he was asking about something else.

Yuan Ge blew on the back of his hand, sat down nonchalantly, and raised his chin towards the breakfast snacks, "Eat while it's hot, and I'll send you back home after you're done. This morning, I sent someone to send your message to the Ouyang Mansion in the name of a 'return gift'. The elders have received the news that you are safe and sound, so you don't have to rush, just eat slowly."

"Thank you..." After saying that, Zhong Wei realized that he had said thank you so many times today that these words seemed pale and perfunctory. But if he didn't say it, there were no better words to express these thoughtful thoughts.

She was in a dilemma, but Yuan Ge was frank, "If you really want to thank me, then have a good breakfast, go back to the mansion and have a good rest, and then think back to what those people said after you were kidnapped, for example, why did they take you away... and have you ever seen those people... are they men or women, and what are their characteristics."

Zhong Wei nodded and said yes, with a frown.
