Su Qianyan was extremely anxious. With so many people around, how could she admit that her grandmother was not sick?
If she admitted it, wouldn't it be the truth that she wanted to give Su Li a reputation that was unfilial?
Coldness flashed past Su Li's eyes. Looking at Su Qianyan's expression, the bottom of his heart was blooming with happiness.
”Second Miss.” A servant girl ran over and stood in front of Su Qianyan.
”Lingxiang, why are you here?” Su Qianyan asked in confusion.
”Second miss, the old mistress has gotten better. I was specially ordered to come here and inform the second miss, and also told Fourth Miss, if Fifth Prince's injuries are really serious, he does not need to return to the manor to tend to them.” Lingxiang wiped away the sweat on his forehead and said methodically.
”Is Grandmother really better? That's great. ” Su Qianyan's face relaxed a bit as he held Su Li's hand apologetically, ”I was too anxious, that kneel just now was really stupid, and almost caused Fourth Sister to be tongue-tied.”
Su Li pursed his lips, he did not expect that Su Qianyan had actually made two preparations.
”How about this, Fourth Sister should take care of Fifth Prince's injuries first. In the future, when I have time to return home, I will properly apologize to Fourth Sister.” After Su Qianyan finished, he looked at Lingxiang and turned to leave.
Su Li watched as Su Qianyan left before turning around to enter the Fifth Prince's Mansion.
In the evening, after the opening hours began, Su Li and Mo Lianjin led their people to catch the cause of the escape and entered the Yilan Academy.
The old procuress was shocked by the scene, and walked over to Su Li, ”Fourth Miss, what is going on? ”We are already old acquaintances. If there's anything that needs to be said, I will definitely follow the instructions and don't cause a ruckus. My business is not good to begin with …”
Su Li interrupted the old procuress's words, ”Do any of you have a tea flower here?”
”Did the camellias commit an offense?”
”Where is she?”
”Just now, someone came over and asked for her. She's in the leftmost room on the third floor.” The bawd did not dare to hide the truth.
Hearing that, Mo Lianjin looked at Su Li, ”You just stand there and don't move.”
After saying that, he flew towards the third floor, with the others following closely behind. In that moment, only Su Li remained in the hall.
If she didn't listen to him and couldn't fly, then she would just walk up to the third floor.
Su Li gasped for breath as he climbed up to the third floor. The farthest left wing was already filled with the sounds of fighting.
When she reached him, she saw a woman jump out of a wooden window.
Mo Lianjin followed closely behind, and the others followed suit.
Su Li ran to the side of the wooden window and watched as Mo Lianjin landed gently on the ground, disappearing into the crowd on the street.
Suddenly, she remembered when she was investigating the Case of Heart Stealing, his internal energy wasn't as strong as it is now. She frowned.
The old procuress ran very slowly before she caught up with him. ”Aiyo, my carving window …”
Su Li looked over coldly, and the old procuress's voice immediately stopped, ”What does the man who orders the tea flowers look like?”
”He's wearing a veil hat, how can I tell what he looks like?” The old procuress looked at her carving window with a pained expression.
Su Li pursed his lips and thought for a moment. From the moment she chased in, there had been no one left in the room, if it was a man who had nothing to do with the tea flowers, he definitely would not have ran away first.
”What about the man's accent?”
”Every time he comes, he has a weird tone to him. I really can't tell how old he is.”
”Every time? He comes often? ”
”I've been here once a month, and I've never stopped.”
”When did it start?”
The old procuress thought for a moment. ”About half a year.”
”Then when did the tea flowers start coming to the Yilan Courtyard?”
”The tea flowers have arrived early. It has been two years.”
”Do you still remember why the tea flowers came to the Yilan Courtyard?”
”He was sold by bandits, so he is quite honest. Even if he were to enter our Yilan Courtyard, he wouldn't be like the other girls who want to die.”
Su Li frowned, ”Go and help me find someone close to the flower.”
