”What?” Xia Yuqing looked startled then her eyes brightened. As if she was a soul from the eight divinatory trigrams of the Book of Changes that had just ignited, her eyes were s.h.i.+ning as she stared at Yan Ran.

Being stared at by her as if he was prey, he took a deep breath before speaking: ”That day when we captured the Ya Tou, Consort Qing you were also there. So I am presuming you also saw how His Majesty subdued that a.s.sa.s.sin?”

Rubbing her chin, Xia Yuqing tried to recall: ”Could it be that… hand knife that directly caused her to lose her memories?”

Living up to expectations, Yan Ran nodded his head. In an instant, Xia Yuqing's mouth formed into an o shape. As expected, the Ultra Seme Lord really set a new record. That small, miniscule hand blade could actually cause a flowery maiden to lose her memories? In comparison, in those period dramas of people jumping off cliffs, aren't people who lose their memories from b.u.mping their heads when they fall down stairs a bit too weak?

After a short minute of being surprised, her hand that was rubbing her chin came up to cover her mouth. Prodding the person beside her, she lowered her voice: ”Even if she did lose her memories, why would she be in your hands?

Speak, Gorgeous Grand Tutor. Have you taken a fancy to her?”

You have the Ultra Seme Lord and you still dare to womanize?! It was fine that you got spotted with the minister the other time; although it was quite unfortunate that he was also a pampered and lovable Uke! However this time you dare extend your reach to a frail girl's body!? That person is a woman even if she dresses up as a man and hides her gender, she still has her inherent female features! Being a qualified fujos.h.i.+, she hated double plugs who would eat from the bowl but look at the pot the most!

Seeing that Xia Yuqing gaze was becoming increasingly stranger, Yan Ran's mouth drew into a line then cleared his throat to explain: ”Niang Niang, you have misunderstood. She is only with Chen because of some unfinished grievances with her.”

”Personal grievances?”

Yan Ran's eyes glanced around then unwillingly lowered his voice to answer her: ”Consort Qin, do you still remember that Chen's residence also encountered a robber causing Chen to suffer an injury?”

Xia Yuqing thought about it for a while then finally understood what Yan Ran was referring to: ”Is this the rapist who stole Gorgeous Grand Tutor's chrysanthemum, the one who caused you to shout until you damaged your throat?”

Veins popping out from his forehead, he gritted his teeth and replied: ”Chen was ambushed, laughed the entire night, laughed until I hurt my throat!”

Shocked by his sudden sinister facial expressions, Xia Yuqing did a little jump then laughed: ”Ahaha, yes, it was Ben Gong's error. It was because Grand Tutor got hit by …. San Xiao Xiao Yao pill that's why you lost your voice!”

San Xiao Xiao Yao = Unfettered Three Laughs

Hearing the words 'lost voice', the colour on Yan Ran's face became gloomy, but feeling that it wasn't right to get angry at the innocent Xia Yuqing, he could only swallow this down: ”That pill was bestowed by her.”

”Bestowed by her? So this must mean that she was ringleader who caused you to lose your voice?”
