Gong Shangjiao seldom ate at night, so Li Huashi always ate alone in the house.

That day, bored Li Huashi thought for a while and decided to go to Zheng Palace to have dinner with Gong Yuanzheng and Shangguan Qian.

Every day that I don’t bicker with Gong Yuanzheng is like losing a form of entertainment, and it becomes even more boring than usual.

However, when Li Huashi arrived at the Zheng Palace, she only saw Shangguan Qian.

Shangguan Qian was also preparing to have dinner alone at this time. She was a little surprised to see Li Huashi coming.

"Miss Jiang? Are you here to see me?"

Li Huashi: "Mr. Jiao doesn't need dinner, and I feel lonely eating alone, so I thought of going to Miss Shangguan to eat together.

But I didn't expect that Miss Shangguan was also alone, and her brother Yuanzheng didn't eat dinner either?"

Shangguan smiled and said, "Miss Jiang, please take a seat. Mr. Zheng is very busy and usually doesn't have time to eat with me."

Li Huashi sat down without any hesitation. Hearing this, she smiled and said nothing.

After the maid brought more chopsticks and dishes, the two of them ate dinner together.

From time to time, the two of them chatted with each other.

Li Huashi did not come here to investigate whether there was any problem with Shangguan Qian for Gong Shangjiao and the others.

She has no plans to interfere in the palace affairs for the time being.

Her cooperation with Gong Shangjiao did not include the content that she would help Gong Men find the Edgeless Assassin.

In fact, she doesn’t care who is the Wufeng spy between Yun Weishan and Shangguan Qian.

She really didn't want to eat alone because she felt that the corner palace was too lonely.

The boredom of the palace gate made Li Hua Shi decide to leave after finding a second Izumo lotus or discovering how to cultivate it.

Originally, Li Huashi wanted Bai Tou to go to the back mountain at night.

However, after learning that Gong Ziyu was in the back mountain to participate in a three-domain trial, this idea was temporarily shelved.

She wasn't in any rush anyway.

Shangguan Qianjian Li Huashi said that she felt the days in the Corner Palace were boring and lonely.

He suggested that Li Huashi could plant some flowers and plants in the Corner Palace, so that it would look more lively.

Li Huashi looked at her own fair and smooth fingers and refused.

"Just ask the maid to send some potted plants. If you grow them yourself, it will be hard to wash off the dirt on your fingernails."

“Miss Jiang, if you’re worried about getting your hands dirty, why don’t I do it?

I had nothing to do in Zheng Palace, and Master Zheng didn't seem to like me very much...

I have a long time to stay in the palace, and I want to get closer to Miss Jiang."

When Li Huashi heard this, she sneered in her heart.

Although she had no intention of interfering in the affairs of the palace, at this point, she had already determined that there was something wrong with Shangguan Qian.

Even though she had clearly refused and also proposed a solution, which was to let the maid buy the potted plants.

Shangguan Qian still proposed to plant flowers in the Corner Palace, so she probably had other purposes.

After all, if you don't want to plant flowers, can't you just stand by and watch?

Does a person really want to be closer to you, or does he want to be closer to you for other purposes?

Li Huashi didn't dare to say with 100% certainty that she could definitely identify it accurately.

But nine times out of ten, you won’t go wrong.

Although she thought so in her heart, Li Huashi smiled and nodded happily:

"Okay, when Miss Shangguan is free, you can come to Jiao Palace to play with me more often, and I will also come to Zheng Palace to play with Miss Shangguan more often."

Let’s have fun.

Just to kill time.

Just as Li Huashi asked Shangguan Qian if she knew how to play chess, and got a positive answer, the two decided to play a game of chess.

Suddenly, there was a noisy sound outside the window, and in the night sky, lanterns rose up, dotted the black night sky with star-like shining lights.

Seeing this, Li Huashi suddenly became interested.

"Is there some festival today? There are so many sky lanterns, it's really beautiful."

Shangguan Qian suddenly remembered that the last time Kongming lanterns were released at the palace gate, Li Huashi was poisoned, so she didn't know that this meant someone had died.

Shangguan Qian explained to Li Huashi the meaning of releasing Kongming lanterns at the palace gate.

Li Huashi was a little curious: "Who died?"

Shangguan Qian has always been with Li Huashi, so she doesn't know either.

However, Shangguan Qian was usually very humble and had a good relationship with the maids and guards at the palace gate.

So after asking, they soon learned that it was Elder Yue from the palace who had been assassinated and died.

It is said that the assassin also left words in blood.

No front, no name.

. . . . .

Human joys and sorrows are not shared.

Li Huashi returned to the Corner Palace under the escort of the guards and was now lying comfortably on the roof of the Corner Palace.

With one hand on his neck and the other holding a bunch of grapes, he was sitting with his legs crossed, leisurely admiring the almost dim sky lanterns in the night sky.

This lamp represents death to the people at the palace gate.

For Li Huashi, it was a rare scene in her ordinary life in the palace.

"what are you doing here?"

When she heard the voice, Li Huashi knew without even looking that the person coming was Gong Shangjiao.

Li Huashi remained in the same posture and said without turning her head:

"Moon-watching, isn't that obvious?"

Gong Shangjiao looked up at the moonless night:...

"Your last guess has come true, Manager Jia, you are really just a shield, not the real murderer behind the scenes."

Li Huashi: "How did Elder Yue die?"

Gong Shangjiao: "Elder Yue seemed to have an appointment with someone. After removing the guards around him, he went to the appointment alone, and was killed by a sword in the throat at close range."
