In her eyes, everything that Bai Di and Bai Di did, in order to show that they were having an adulterous relationship, was now all a cover up.

These people's words were vividly spoken, it really made her think that Bai Zheng was the one who seduced Feng Jingyang.

So it was just playing with her!

Zheng Yan was so angry that she attacked her heart, she simply unleashed all her anger onto Su Muxiao, and slapped her a few more times: "Despicable and forceful, it was all I did! If you have the guts to seduce men, do you have the guts to accept my slap! "

Bai Di opened her eyes wide and looked at Feng Jingyang.

How could it be Su Muxiao?

He should have been beaten up by Zheng Yan, and the person who should have lost his reputation should have been Bai Zheng! Where did she go?

"..."

"I thank the Marquis for his help, otherwise I would have become that Feng Jingyang's concubine." Bai Zheng finished flipping through the shelves in Gaochang Marquis's study and sat down to rest.

Feng Linyuan turned around and revealed a pair of eyes that were as clear as water. The unmasked half of his face carried a gentle smile, and he said with a slight smile, "No need to be courteous, this duke's feelings for the Miss Bai are deep. Naturally, I cannot bear to have the Miss Bai become someone else's concubine."

Bai Zheng immediately rolled her eyes. "Master Hou is so sincere, Bai Zheng truly respects you to the extreme."

Feng Jingyang's knockout drug was almost colorless and odorless, by the time Bai Zheng realised it, she had already inhaled some of it, and was almost unconscious.

Fortunately she bit her finger on the spot, using the pain to keep herself awake. She immediately held her breath, covered her nose and mouth, and after Feng Jingyang's men came in to carry him away, she ran to the window and opened it to take a deep breath.

At that time, the door was already locked from the outside, and she would not be unable to escape with her lightness skills. She was just about to wait by the window for Feng Jingyang to come in and fight a battle of wits and courage.

Feng Linyuan suddenly dropped from the sky.

"You said that you were looking for Bone-penetrating Herb in the guest room? Did you really not see anything that you shouldn't have? " Bai Zheng suddenly asked.

Feng Linyuan pursed his lips, "Don't worry, this marquis did not see Miss Bai change his clothes."

"Don't talk nonsense!" A captivating red color surfaced on Bai Zheng's face.

However, she had already thought that Feng Linyuan was just teasing her, so she said with certainty: "Master Hou, don't tease me. Although Master Hou doesn't know where the Bone-penetrating Herb is hiding, but a guest room that is full of people is definitely not something that Master Hou would go and search. "I think Master Hou must have followed in after seeing someone secretly putting knockout drugs outside the guest room."

Feng Linyuan did not deny it, he had set his eyes on the backyard from the very beginning. Since Soong Yiqing was in the front courtyard and had come many times without any results, it was very likely that the Bone-penetrating Herb was hiding in the back courtyard of the Mansion of Gaochang Marquis.

Thus, from the moment he searched for Ming Zhu, he had thought of a way to get rid of Feng Jingyi, so that he could search for Bone-penetrating Herb s in every corner of the backyard.

This led to the rescue of Bai Zheng, and even helped her knock Su Muxiao out for him.

It was just that what Feng Linyuan did not say was, he did not come here because he had bumped into Feng Jingyang. How could there be so many coincidences in the world?

He had sent people to keep an eye on Bai Zheng, and when he found out that she had entered, he sent people to wait for Bai Zheng outside the guest room, so that he could bring her to find the Bone-penetrating Herb.

After all, if something were to happen when they were moving in the backyard, with the protection of the current "heroine" Bai Zheng, it would be easy to explain.

"Master Hou, the backyard is about to be searched by you." Seeing that Feng Linyuan stopped looking for it, and obviously did not gain anything, Bai Zheng asked.

Feng Linyuan nodded. From last night to today, the Mansion of Dingyuan Marquis had continuously sent people over, and seemed to be searching every inch of the land within the Mansion of Gaochang Marquis. Even the heavily guarded backyard had barely been able to avoid the guards a few times to enter.

Today, Feng Linyuan had even personally gone to look for the bedroom of the Gaochang Marquis, the marquis' ancestral hall, and even the Wife of Departed Marquis's old residence.

"Searching aimlessly like this isn't a solution either." Bai Zheng frowned as she thought about it.

Ever since she had been saved by Feng Linyuan, she accompanied him and searched through many places. Yet, they had all failed to reap any rewards.

Feng Linyuan nodded and said, "This marquis originally thought that since this Bone-penetrating Herb was requested by the Gaochang Marquis for its mother, it must be placed in some place related to the Wife of Departed Marquis. However, after rummaging through the Wife of Departed Marquis's old residence and ancestral hall, we still did not find anything. "

Bai Zheng lowered her eyes, "Then is there anything else within the house of the Marquis that we don't know about that is related to the Wife of Departed Marquis?"

After searching through these few places with Feng Linyuan, Bai Zheng had a clearer understanding of Feng Linyuan's abilities. It could be said that nothing could escape his eyes.

In those places, since he said that there were no Bone-penetrating Herb, there must not be any.

which meant that the Bone-penetrating Herb was still in a place they had never been before.

"I have also sent people to inquire about the affairs of the Wife of Departed Marquis. Wife of Departed Marquis grew up with the previous Marquis, and their relationship was deep. When they reached the age of twenty, they would be married according to their engagement, and it was a beautiful story within the Yongding City at that time. It's a pity that the heavens are jealous. When Wife of Departed Marquis was in the process of childbirth, the previous Marquis suddenly fell ill and died, leaving the Wife of Departed Marquis orphans and widows, relying on each other for survival. "

"Wife of Departed Marquis has been a widow for so many years, she is indeed a poor man." Bai Zheng sighed.

"If not for the discovery of the Gaochang Marquis, I'm afraid that the Wife of Departed Marquis would have followed me back then. Afterwards, Wife of Departed Marquis's mother had also planned for her to remarry, but she was rejected by Wife of Departed Marquis. "

Bai Zheng muttered to himself, "When Gaochang Marquis was young, he could still accompany us day by day, but when he grew up, he went to war on the battlefield for many years. How did Wife of Departed Marquis spend those days?"

Feng Linyuan frowned, "If a loved one goes, it is naturally easy to miss them." He suddenly thought of something and raised his head. "Could it be …"

Bai Zheng also thought of this at the same time, and nodded: "Right now, send someone to investigate, is there still time to find out where the Wife of Departed Marquis and the previous Marquis's favorite guest garden or old residence is?"

Feng Linyuan had already stood up and walked to the door of the study, "I know where it is."

"Who's here?"

Just as Feng Linyuan was about to leave, a voice came out from outside.

Bai Zheng was so scared that she was grabbed by the fast Feng Linyuan and hid behind the bookshelf.

The door to the study was opened. Bai Zheng looked through the gaps between the bookshelves and saw a man who looked like the commander of the guards entering the study. He took out a long sword from his waist and carefully looked around.

The man's gaze quickly locked onto the few bookshelves in the small study room.

She saw the man holding the sword coming closer and closer to them. Bai Zheng was so frightened that she immediately tried to shrink back. However, she couldn't care about anything else as she pulled Feng Linyuan closer to her side.

With regards to this man who was searching, Feng Linyuan naturally did not put him in his eyes.

Now that he was getting closer, Feng Linyuan tightly protected Bai Zheng, his hand was already holding onto a handful of knockout medicine, waiting for the man to walk in front of them, and sprinkled the powder on his face.

The man's footsteps were light, but were like heavy stones that struck at Bai Zheng's heart.

Feng Linyuan stared intently ahead, his hand slowly raised.

Beside the bookshelf, the black soles of the guards' feet were exposed.
