Lihua's eyes flashed and she murmured secretly: "If it were me..."

If she were the other party, she would never wander outside the main hall of Huafang Hall and meet Aunt Fang before going out. She would do so many actions because she has a ghost in her heart.

She would choose to climb over the wall of Huafang Hall when no one saw her, and hide quietly on the way back to Tingliyuan to observe the reactions of her, Zhichun and others.

This is the reason why Lihua prevented Zhichun from reporting the incident on her way back, to prevent the other party from eavesdropping.

She then deliberately pretended that it was a pity that she could not see Concubine Xie, making the other party think that the focus of her visit to Huafang Hall was Concubine Xie, in order to confuse the audience.

At the same time, at Yiyuan Hall.

The palace people in the main hall have been sent away far away.

A low-pitched voice of shock and anger suddenly came from the hall: "Idiot, this is unnecessary! If you want to know if she suspects you, just observe in secret, why do you need to do those unnecessary actions."

A palace maid knelt on the ground, lowered her head and explained: "Master, this slave just wants to..."

A palace concubine wearing a light-colored cloud-embroidered dress showed a ferocious look on her face and interrupted directly: "You want to set off smoke bombs to confuse the other party, but you don't know that the more you do, the more flaws you will have? Is this true? You don’t need me to teach you!”

This palace concubine with a ferocious face was clearly the concubine Qing. Her demeanor at this moment was in great contrast to her previous image of being as calm and elegant as an orchid.

The palace maid kneeling on the ground is naturally Hua Yun who came out of Huafang Palace and hid in a corner to listen for Lihua's return journey before quietly coming over.

But her snooping yielded nothing.

Hua Yun was lying on the ground at this moment, his voice trembling slightly: "This slave is stupid, please punish me."

Concubine Qing looked cold and stern: "What's the use of punishment? Has anyone seen you coming here?"

Hua Yun quickly shook his head: "No, I am very careful. I only dare to come in after making sure no one is following me."

Concubine Qing looked at the people on the ground without saying a word, her power cold and threatening.

Her thoughts turned rapidly, and she thought about it again and again, and the fright and anger in her chest began to slowly suppress.

Wu Zhaoyi and Hua Yun met by chance, but they realized something was wrong. In the short period of time from his visit to Huafang Palace to his return, there was no time to arrange for someone skilled enough to follow Hua Yun.

If there is an arrangement, the news will definitely not be hidden from Hua Yun.Concubine Qing knew Huayun's skills well, and she could be sure that no one was following him, so he was reliable.

What's more, Wu Zhaoyi has been in Huafang Palace, and there is nowhere to find anyone with enough skills. If ordinary people were to follow him, they would not be able to hide it from Hua Yun's eyes and ears.

After such calculations, Concubine Qing eliminated the most terrifying and dangerous possibility of being followed.

She felt slightly relieved, and then she had the time to ask Hua Yun about her unexpected encounter with Wu Zhaoyi.

Concubine Qing asked: "Tell me again from the beginning what happened when you saw Wu Zhaoyi."

Hua Yun did not dare to delay and told in detail how Su Siru made things difficult for her and how Li Hua suddenly arrived.

"Wu Zhaoyi's eyes were just a quick glance, and he did not stop at the slave. This slave can guarantee it. Later, on the way Wu Zhaoyi went back, the slave did not see anything strange, and the chats between the master and the servants were all right. It's just that the slave was cautious and was afraid of any omissions, so he came early to report to the master."

After hearing this, Concubine Qing's face suddenly became uncertain: "The granddaughter of Princess Jinyi has always been domineering, but she just asked casually, you didn't mess up, which is good. It's just Wu Zhaoyi..."

Speaking of this, Concubine Qing frowned.

Wu Zhaoyi was young and had just entered the palace, but he had already escaped her careful designs time and time again.

In addition, in a short period of time, he had won the favor of the Queen Mother, and he was still favored by that person.

How could such a scheming person be a simple person, which made her feel jealous.

At this moment, Concubine Qing could not tell from the clues whether Hua Yun had been exposed.

She walked to the window and thought carefully, but after a while she still couldn't come to a conclusion.

There are various indications that Wu Zhaoyi did not doubt Hua Yun's actions.

But she is able to get to where she is today because she has always been cautious and never takes chances.
