It was getting dark, and Mu Qingge stayed there all day. Remembering that she had an appointment with that man tonight, she asked Qingxue to stay at the main house, and she went back to her own house.

After returning to the house, she asked Wei Yu to prepare hot water, finished bathing and washed, and put on a moon-white middle coat.

After changing her clothes, Mu Qingge was about to leave the clean room when her footsteps suddenly stopped and her eyes fell firmly on the shelf where the changed clothes were placed.

Probably because her mother had an accident today, and it happened suddenly. Almost all the servants in Ningqiyuan were busy in the front yard. The one Mu Changyun gave her that she had replaced yesterday was dyed and photographed.

The piece of clothing embroidered with Hunxiang Thread is still there, not sent to the laundry room.

Mu Qingge stared at the clothes for a long time, and her throat moved slightly.

Tonight, that man will come.

And she asked that man to do something for her.

Mu Qingge's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she quickly walked over, took off the clothes, took them out and placed them on the bedside of the dormitory.

The lights in the mansion gradually went out, and it became quiet outside. The night got deeper and deeper, but Mu Qingge did not sleep.

She just lay quietly on the bed, listening to what was going on outside.

I don't know how long it took before an extremely light knocking sound came from the window.

Mu Qingge sat up quickly, took the clothes from the bedside, put on the clothes and got up, walked to the window and opened it.

There was no one outside the window.

Mu Qingge frowned, did she hear it wrong?

She couldn't help but poked her head out and took a look around.

"Are you looking for me?" A man's deep voice suddenly came from the room.

Mu Qingge was startled and almost screamed.

She hurriedly turned her head and saw a familiar dark figure on the stool next to the table.

"How did you get in?"

Li Xiao tapped his fingers lightly on the table, making a deep tapping sound.

"I can't come in?"

"Yes." Mu Qingge responded in a low voice.

"What do you want from me?"

Mu Qingge took two steps toward Li Xiao and stopped one step away from him: "Qingxue must have reported to you what happened to my mother."

"I invited more than 20 doctors inside and outside the government today, but they couldn't find the reason why my mother was unconscious. I want... to ask you for help."

"Ask me for help?" Li Xiao smiled inexplicably: "Why should I help you?"

Mu Qingge's eyes lit up with a faint frown. He only asked why he wanted to help her, but he didn't say that he couldn't help her. Does that mean that he had a way?

Regardless of whether he really has a way to help her, it concerns her mother, and as long as there is a glimmer of hope, she will never give up.

Mu Qingge thought, took another step forward, and squatted down in front of Li Xiao: "As long as you help me, let my mother wake up, and help me find out who did it to my mother, you

Whatever you want, I can give you."

"Please, my mother is very important to me."

"Can you give me anything?"

Li Xiao looked Mu Qingge up and down. The room was a little dark, but today happened to be the fifteenth day. The moonlight shone in through the open window, and it happened to reflect on Mu Qingge's face, making her whole face...

Everything seemed to be covered with a somewhat hazy light.

"What do you have? What do you have that I don't have, that I want, that you can give me?"

Mu Qingge tightened her skirt and bit her lip.

What does she have?

She has no money, no power, the only thing she has is...

It's just her face that is understandable, and her body.

However, even her body has already been taken care of by him...

Mu Qingge lowered her head and looked at her hand holding the hem of her skirt, and her eyebrows moved slightly: "You have already installed people in Mu's mansion, so you should know the identity of my mother, and you should also know who my grandmother is.

Bar?"

Li Xiao raised his eyes: "I know, your maternal grandmother's name is Ye Ling, she is the daughter of the Ye family of the incense-making family. The royal incense in the palace was once paid tribute by the Ye family."

Mu Qingge nodded: "Yes, the Ye family, spice recipes are not passed on to others, only to their own descendants."

"So you will?"

Mu Qingge coughed lightly and felt a little guilty: "I don't know how to make incense yet, but I know a lot of spice recipes."

"There are many, and they are all remembered in my mind."

Li Xiao suddenly chuckled for some reason: "Really? What happens next?"

"Ye's incense recipe is a treasure that many people want. Incense has many uses. Some incense can condense the qi and calm the mind, some can upset people, some can enchant people's hearts, some can cure diseases, and some can

Incense can kill people."

"If you can make my mother wake up, or find the person who drugged my mother, I can make you an incense according to your request."

Seeing that Li Xiao seemed unmoved, Mu Qingge rolled his eyes: "I also know that there is a kind of incense that can be made into fragrant pills, called poison-preventing pills. If someone poisons you, they will use poison smoke.

Powdered poisons are not poisons that are taken through the mouth, poison avoidance pills are all useful. The lighter ones can protect you from poisoning, and the heavier ones can also reduce your symptoms of poisoning."

"I think you should be able to use it."

Li Xiao glanced at Mu Qingge: "You just said that things like incense have many uses. They can avoid poisons and can also kill people."

"Many of Ye's fragrant recipes have been lost long ago, and not many people know about them. If you tampered with that thing, it would be difficult for me to find out."

"After all, I ruined your innocence and even wanted to kill you to silence you. In your heart, you probably also want me to die."

Mu Qingge gritted her teeth secretly, but her face remained calm. The man in front of her was too terrifying. If she lied and said she didn't hate him at all, he would definitely not believe it.

And she does have another purpose...

"I do hate you a little, but I don't want to kill you. After all, things have already happened, and even killing you will not help."

"And what I want to do most now is to protect my mother and brother, and to take revenge."

"But I was too well protected before. I didn't know the truth of many things, and I didn't have anyone I could rely on. Now my mother is still..."

Mu Qingge lowered her eyes: "It sounds ridiculous to say it, but now, I can only ask you and rely on you."

After Mu Qingge finished speaking, Li Xiao did not speak for a long time.

She knew that Li Xiao would also consider it in his heart, so she didn't bother her.

Sure enough, after a while, Li Xiao tapped his fingers on the table: "I can help you. I can tell you who poisoned your mother."

"who is it?"

Mu Qingge hurriedly asked, but his words revealed two pieces of information.

First, her mother was indeed not sick, but poisoned.

Second, he knew who the poisoner was.

Mu Qingge couldn't help but wonder, could it be him?

Could it be that he poisoned her mother with the intention of controlling her?

Just as she was thinking about it, she heard him say: "Mu Changyun."
