Palace Archives
Eunuch Li frowned. There was no record of Song Yueyue in the archives of the Imperial Master's Mansion.
He felt an unprecedented sense of frustration, because in his impression, every file should be complete. However, Song Yueyue's file seemed to have been deliberately erased, leaving no trace.
He decided to expand the scope of his investigation, moving from inside the palace to outside, questioning merchants and common people who had dealings with the Imperial Master's Mansion. But even so, he did not obtain any valuable information.
Song Yueyue's existence is like a blank period in history. No one knows her past, and there are no clues to follow.
This situation gave Eunuch Li a sense of foreboding. He began to suspect that Song Yueyue's identity might be more complicated than she thought, and that she might even be hiding some secret. He decided to report the situation to the emperor.
The Emperor frowned upon hearing this, and he began to realize the seriousness of the matter. For someone without any background to actually appear in the Imperial Master's Residence and develop such a close relationship with Shangguan Qing, there must be some unknown secret behind this.
"Continue investigating. No matter what method you use, you must find out Song Yueyue's true identity."

Rongxue Villa
Rong Xue knew that the Imperial Master's Mansion was full of dangers and that Gu Yufei's safety was of paramount importance. Therefore, it decided to send Zi Xuan into the Imperial Master's Mansion to protect Gu Yufei.
Rong Xue called Zixuan to her side and instructed her, "Zixuan, I know this trip to the Imperial Master's Residence is fraught with danger, but I believe in your abilities. You must protect Gu Yufei and ensure her safety."
Zixuan nodded solemnly, a determined light flashing in her eyes: "Don't worry, sir, I will do my best to fulfill my mission."
The poison of the magic pill needs to be detoxified 9981 times, after which the whole person can be reborn.
There are still five days until the next detoxification.
Rong Xue calculated the time.

As Zixuan stepped into the Imperial Master's Mansion, she immediately felt a tense atmosphere.
She found Gu Yufei and revealed her identity to her.
"Young Master sent me in to assist you. What's the situation now? What happened?" Zixuan walked up quickly and asked.
Gu Yufei sighed and said, "Song Yueyue is ill. The illness came on suddenly and is quite serious. Shangguan Qing has asked Shufeng to investigate the cause."
Zixuan frowned slightly. She often went out on missions, and judging from her experience, Gu Yufei might be in trouble this time.
At this moment, Shufeng hurried over, his face solemn. "I've done some research, and it seems the young lady may have been poisoned by a rare type of poison."
When everyone heard this, their hearts sank.
"Is there any way to detoxify?" Shangguan Qing asked anxiously.
Shuofeng shook his head: "This poison is extremely strange. I need time to find a way to detoxify it."
"How could this happen?" Shangguan Qing exuded murderous intent.
"It's you?" Shangguan Qing grabbed Gu Yufei's neck.
"We haven't figured it out yet, so let's keep her alive for now. In case she really poisoned her, we can find the antidote." Shufeng said hurriedly.
Gu Yufei was strangled so hard that she couldn't speak.
Zixuan was standing by, ready to take action.
The young master said that no matter what the situation, the young lady’s safety should be the first priority.
"If I find out it's you, I will tear you into pieces." Shangguan Qing threw Gu Yufei to the ground.
