Bai Zhi walked over and advised, "It's late, so the girl should go to bed to rest earlier. It's not too late to read this account book later."

"Yes," Luzhu blinked in a narrow voice: "My son-in-law is still waiting in the bedroom. The girl has been in the study and caught a cold carefully. My son-in-law is going to trouble me again."

Anyone with discerning eyes can see that this time Jiang Ruan came back and Xiao Shao seemed to have become a little different. The relationship between the two became better, and the servants were happy to see it. Dewdrop even tried to get the two together in a different way.

Lian Qiao bounced Dew's forehead and said, "Little Hoof, you can joke about the girl's words at will. It seems that the girl treats you so well and becomes more lawless." She looked at Jiang Ruan with a smile: "But it's pretty pertinent. The girl's body can't stand the tossing now, so it's better to rest earlier, so the son-in-law won't feel distressed."

Jiang Ruan looked at his maids playing and suddenly remembered the scene in his dream when he was intoxicated and unconscious. These maids were not able to meet in the last life of their previous lives. Suddenly, he sighed: "How many years have you been with me?"

Lian Qiao was stunned, but no one expected why Jiang Ruan suddenly said this. Lian Qiao and Bai Zhi looked at each other and said, "I and Bai Zhi have been with the girl since I was a child, and now they have been about sixteen years."

Luzhu blinked: "I followed the girl from the village for about six years."

"I have followed the young lady for two years." Tianzhu said softly.

"It's been so many years." Jiang Ruan whispered.

"Girl..." Bai Zhi said worriedly.

Jiang Ruan waved his hand and smiled, "It's just a bit touching. You have been with me for so many years, but it seems that you are not doing well. On the surface, it looks bright, but in fact there are crises everywhere. Speaking of which, it's not my master."

She said this inexplicably, and Luzhu hurriedly said, "Miss, don't say that. It is a blessing for me to follow the girl to be polite. My daughter treats me very well, and I have never felt guilty."

Lian Qiao and the others followed, and Jiang Ruan smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll take a break first. You should go to bed earlier. You will go to the palace tomorrow morning." As he said that, he stood up. Tianzhu hurriedly put on her coat. Jiang Ruan walked out of the study door and entered the bedroom.

The sky was already dark, and the Jinying Palace fell into silence. There was no sound at night, and it seemed to be quiet. After midnight, light snow began to rise. The ground was wet and cold, and if you step on it inadvertently, you would slip.

In such a dark night, an inconspicuous figure suddenly appeared in the yard, as if he was getting up in the middle of the night to go to the thatched cottage. However, when passing through the outermost exterior wall, he seemed to squat down inadvertently and brushed inside somewhere at the base of the wall.

At this moment, my eyes suddenly lit up. Several torches suddenly appeared in the dark night in front of me, shining brightly on the man. The man was shocked and quickly squatted down to cover his face with his hands, lowering his head and refused to let others see his face.

A voice sounded very clearly in the night: "Mrs. Young lady, catch it! There is really a thief!"

Another person said: "Hey, raise your face, who is this person?"

The man trembled and his head was buried lower. It turned out to be a turtle in a jar. Behind the guards, Jiang Ruan slowly walked out from behind. She was holding a torch in her hand. The flames reflected her face coldly and beautifully, but her eyes were filled with a faint compassion and a hint of undetectable disappointment.

Jiang Ruan walked to the man and stopped. The secret guards looked at each other. Jiang Ruan looked down at the man's head and finally said lightly: "Bai Zhi, don't you dare to look up at me?"

The secret guards who were still on the side were all shocked. They were all familiar with the servants of the Jinying Mansion, the young lady's dowry maid. Except for Tianzhu, who was originally Xiao Shao's, the other three were celebrities of the Jinying Mansion. Bai Zhi was the most calm and quiet among the maids of several maids, and they were beautiful and charming. The guards often gave things here to show their attentiveness. Bai Zhi was deeply trusted by Jiang Ruan and was also an old man who grew up with Jiang Ruan since childhood. Today, the catching the insider was arranged by Jiang Ruan. When he heard Bai Zhi's name, the secret guards were shocked.

However, the people on the ground did not respond for a long time, but Jiang Ruan did not make any hurry, but stood calmly and waited. After a while, the people on the ground finally sorted out their clothes, stood up slowly, revealing a familiar face.

Bai Zhi's expression was as gentle and calm as usual, as if she had just finished something that Jiang Ruan told her. She was not even afraid of being caught. She just looked at Jiang Ruan and said, "Miss is smart, but she still caught me."

"This..." When the secret guards around him saw that it was Bai Zhi, they were all confused and stared at Bai Zhi with some stranger, in case she did anything that was unfavorable to Jiang Ruan. At this moment, Lian Qiao and others who heard the news also chased after him. Seeing Bai Zhi surrounded by Bai Liao Wei, they were shocked. Lu Zhu was so angry that she immediately said, "Sister Bai Zhi, how could it be you?"

Lian Qiao and Bai Zhi grew up together, and their friendship was deep. Seeing this, Lian Qiao was shocked and the first thing she thought of was that Bai Zhi was wronged. She only said anxiously: "What's going on? Bai Zhi, did you have any misunderstanding? The girl here will definitely give you a clean heart. Tell me quickly."

She was very anxious and wanted to help Bai Zhi clear her charge. Just because in Lian Qiao's opinion, Bai Zhi really had no reason to frame Jiang Ruan, and it was even more impossible for the insider to be the person who informed him. However, Bai Zhi was not as clear as she hoped. She just smiled and said, "It's either a misunderstanding, I'm the insider around the girl. The girl has always been very careful, and she has not caught the wrong person this time." She glanced at Lian Qiao and said softly, "I'm sorry, I lied to you."

"How is this possible?" Lian Qiao couldn't help but rushed up and grabbed Bai Zhi's sleeve. She looked a little excited. She said like a bamboo tube, "You and I have served the girl since childhood. Everyone can see clearly how the girl is. At the beginning, you were all dedicated to helping the girl. In the past, you were all dedicated to helping the girl. For so many years, I am qualified to say what kind of person you are. Bai Zhi, do you have any hidden secrets? The friendship between you and me for many years, and the girl regards you as your own person. If you tell me, the girl will definitely help you. Has something happened to you?"

Bai Zhi paused slightly, but pulled Lian Qiao's hand off her sleeve even harder and said, "I have nothing to say, and there is nothing hard to say. You can't trust me or the girl? When did she missed someone?"

Lian Qiao was shocked by Bai Zhi's determination, and she couldn't help but take two steps back. Looking at the woman in front of her, she felt very strange, and was completely different from the friend who had been with her day and night. She looked at Jiang Ruan with some confusion. Jiang Ruan's expression could not see any changes, so she said to the secret guards around: "You go down and leave a few people to stay outside the yard."
