Reincarnated as the Abandoned Daughter of a Marquis's Mansion: I Take Control of My Life

Chapter 224 The Person Who Suddenly Appeared

Su Yi pondered for a moment, "I know some friends in the martial arts world, perhaps I can ask them for information."

"That's great," Su Yinyin said, a look of relief on her face.

Just then, the old man suddenly said, "Miss, I have a feeling that the jade pendant is not simple."

Su Yinyin took out the jade pendant and examined it carefully. The jade pendant seemed like a precious treasure in her hands. "This jade pendant has a warm and smooth texture, and the pattern on it is also very unique. It may point to some key point."

Su Yi said, "Tomorrow I will send someone with the jade pendant to Zhenbaozhai to ask. The manager there is knowledgeable and experienced, and may be able to see the clues."

Su Yinyin nodded in agreement, "Okay, let's do it that way."

The three were discussing matters when Biyu knocked on the door.

Su Yinyin asked, "What is it?"

Biyu replied respectfully, "Miss, it is the Regent who wishes to see you."

Su Yinyin's heart tightened, as if an invisible hand had gripped her heart. "Why is he looking for me so late?"

Biyu shook her head. "I don't know, but he seems very anxious."

Su Yinyin took a deep breath, as if to encourage herself, "Let's go and take a look."

Upon entering the front hall, one sees Zhou Yuan sitting there with a serious expression, his face like an iceberg, sending chills down one's spine.

"Zhou Yuan, why are you looking for me so late? Has something happened in the palace again?" Su Yinyin asked, her voice tinged with unease.

When Zhou Yuan saw Su Yinyin, he stood up and said, "Yinyin, the palace guards have reported that they have discovered two people fighting with a group of dark figures."

I guessed those two must be you. I was afraid something had happened to you, so I rushed over.”

Su Yinyin felt a warmth in her heart, as if she were basking in the spring sunshine. "Thank you for your concern, we are fine."

Zhou Yuan frowned slightly, the curve of his brow resembling a question mark. "Have you found any clues?"

Su Yinyin told Zhou Yuan about finding the jade pendant and the booklet.

Zhou Yuan took the jade pendant and examined it carefully, his focused expression as if he wanted to see through it. "This jade pendant... I feel like I've seen it somewhere before, but I can't remember where."

Su Yinyin's eyes lit up, like twinkling stars in the night sky. "Really? Then think about it again."

Zhou Yuan pondered for a moment, a moment that felt like an eternity. “I still have no clue. However, I can send someone to investigate the names and locations in this booklet in secret.”

Su Yinyin hesitated for a moment, her hesitation as fiery as a flame flickering in the wind, "Won't this alert the enemy?"

Zhou Yuan said, "Don't worry, my people are always cautious in their actions."

Zhou Yuan stared intently at Su Yinyin, as if trying to see through her thoughts. "I suspect this is related to the shadowy figures in the palace tonight."

Su Yinyin frowned, her brows furrowing like tangled threads. "If there really is a connection, then the conspiracy behind it is probably far beyond what we can imagine."

Zhou Yuan nodded solemnly, a nod that seemed like a heavy promise, "No matter what, I must find out the truth as soon as possible."

At this moment, the old man said, "Miss, Regent, I have a feeling that this series of events is not an isolated case. It seems that there is a hidden clue connecting them."

Su Yinyin seemed lost in thought, as if deep in contemplation. "Jin, do you have any ideas?"

The old man pondered for a moment, then asked, "Miss, could it be related to certain forces in the court?"

Zhou Yuan said, "It's not impossible. There have been some unusual developments in the court recently."

Su Yinyin looked at Zhou Yuan, her eyes filled with expectation and doubt, "Then where should we begin?"

Zhou Yuan said, "Let's start with this jade pendant and booklet and see if we can find the key person."

Su Yi, who was standing nearby, said, "It's getting late. Yinyin is a girl and needs to rest."

We'll handle these matters separately, and keep in touch if anything comes up. Regent, please return!

Just then, Biyu knocked on the door again. "Miss, the Regent's Shadow says he has urgent business with the Regent."

The four looked at each other, then got up and walked outside.

The four of them walked out of the villa and came to the flower hall, where they saw Shadow anxiously looking towards the door.

Shadow saw Zhou Yuan walking towards him. He hurriedly went to greet him, bowed, and then glanced at Su Yinyin.

Zhou Yuan could see his concerns and asked, "What is it?"

"Your Highness, Princess!" Shadow greeted Su Yinyin.

He added, "Your Highness, no sooner had you left the palace than His Majesty suddenly fell into a coma, and the Imperial Hospital staff were at a loss."

"What?" Su Yinyin and Zhou Yuan were shocked.

"What exactly happened?" Su Yinyin asked, her voice filled with disbelief.

Shadow shook his head and said, "I don't know the specifics. The Empress Dowager has blocked the news."

Zhou Yuan's gaze was firm, like an inextinguishable candlelight. "I'm going to the palace."

Su Yinyin said, "You should go to the Divine Physician Pavilion now and ask the Pavilion Master to find a divine physician to treat His Majesty."

Zhou Yuan nodded. "Okay, I'll go to the Divine Physician's Pavilion first, then to the Imperial Palace."

After Zhou Yuan finished speaking, he added, "Be careful."

Zhou Yuan and An Ying hurriedly left. Su Yinyin watched their departing figures, her heart filled with questions, as if she were in a fog.

Su Yi said, "Yinyin, don't worry too much, maybe things will turn around."

Su Yinyin sighed: "I hope so."

Back in the study, Su Yinyin, Lao Yi, and Su Yi continued to study the booklet.

Su Yinyin suddenly said, "I feel like I've heard these names somewhere before."

The old man said, "Miss, how about we look through the previous lists of court officials?"

Su Yi shook her head: "That would cover too wide a scope and take too long."

Just then, an unfamiliar voice rang out from outside the window: "You don't need to look anymore, I know where these people come from."

The three were startled, and Su Yi shouted, "Who?"

A masked man burst through the window, and Su Yinyin looked at him warily: "Who are you?"

The masked man laughed and said, "Who I am is not important. What's important is that I can help you solve the mystery."

The older man stepped forward: "What are your conditions?"

The masked man said, "The condition is simple: let me leave after it's done."

Su Yinyin pondered for a moment: "Okay, as long as what you say is true."

The masked man slowly said, "The names on this booklet are all remnants of the previous dynasty... but they have changed their names and surnames."

The old man frowned and asked, "How did you get in?"

The first man's words caused Su Yinyin and Su Yi to frown as well.

To enter the villa, one needs to be escorted. For example, when Zhou Yuan entered the villa, it was Biyu who led him in.

Without guidance and knowledge of footwork, it's impossible to advance.

Because Su Yinyin set up an array around the villa.
