The princess was somewhat alarmed. This Master Kongzhi could indeed deduce fate, and according to him, Han Lingxi was likely to face misfortune soon.

After Master Kongzhi finished speaking, he stopped talking, drank his tea, and got up to leave.

Han Lingxi maintained a meek and obedient demeanor, but inwardly she was cursing the system as a cunning businessman.

According to the system, this Master Kongzhi can indeed see some people's destiny charts, but only extremely special people can see them. So if it directly changes Han Lingxi's destiny chart so that he can see it, he can tell her the answer.

Han Lingxi thought about it and realized that this Master Kongzhi was very prestigious and definitely more credible than the random people she found who were just trying to scam people for money, so she agreed.

Then she successfully spent another thousand points. This system is such a cunning and unscrupulous merchant! Even though she has a lot of points, it shouldn't be so exploitative.

"Oh, you child, why are you so unlucky?"

After seeing Master Kongzhi off, the eldest princess returned to the flower hall, took Han Lingxi's hand, and said with her eyes full of regret.

Han Lingxi lowered her head and remained silent; she had no way to respond to such a statement.

"I'll take you back in a bit and discuss with your mother where to send you. It's better to go out and hide than to actually encounter disaster."

The eldest princess continued, saying that she had a very good relationship with the original owner's mother before she got married. At that time, the original owner's mother was the eldest princess's study companion, and it was because of this relationship that the original owner's mother was able to become the current wife of the Minister.

As the eldest princess was talking to Han Lingxi, Aunt Mingyue stepped forward to report that the second young lady of the Jingzhao Yin family had been pushed into the water.

The eldest princess was furious. Her day had been filled with bad luck, and now these girls were causing trouble. Although the eldest princess didn't want to get involved in the scheming of these young girls, she couldn't just sit idly by since the incident was happening in her own residence.

“Your Highness, why don’t Aunt Mingyue and I go and take a look?”

Seeing the princess's tired appearance, Han Lingxi suggested that since the princess had indeed been good to her, she would naturally be willing to help if she could.

Moreover, it would be beneath the princess's dignity to personally handle the affairs of her youngest daughters, and if Aunt Mingyue were to handle them, her status would be insufficient, since those were all young ladies from prominent families, while Mingyue was merely a servant.

It was just right for someone as old as her, whose father held a high official position, to handle the matter. Having Aunt Mingyue accompany them was to let them know that she was sent by the Princess.

"Good child, you're so thoughtful."

The eldest princess was pleased with Han Lingxi's keen mind and nodded, letting her and Mingyue handle the matter.

The matter is quite simple. The second young lady of the Jingzhao Yin family, Mu Chuliu, fell into the water. She was only frightened. After all, because of the flower viewing banquet, there were old women guarding the small lake in the garden. Mu Chuliu was rescued as soon as she fell into the water.

However, Mu Chuliu insisted that it was Jiang Yi from the Marquis of Anping's mansion who pushed her down. At that time, the two of them were standing by the lake talking and there was no one else around. Their maids also gave conflicting accounts, and no one knew the truth.

Everyone knows that Mu Chuliu and Jiang Yi are at odds. Whether Mu Chuliu deliberately fell into the water to frame Jiang Yi, or whether Jiang Yi pushed Mu Chuliu into the water after a disagreement, no one can say for sure.

When Han Lingxi arrived, the two sides were still at an impasse. Both of them had their own close female friends, and these people were involved in many matters of the court, making the confrontation between the two factions quite troublesome.
