When Xie Shiming heard Lord Xie's arrangement, she thought he still cared about her, so she rushed forward and hugged his legs. "Daddy, do you still believe Ming'er? Ming'er was wronged. It must be that evil Taoist who cast some spell on me, making me do such an extraordinary thing."
Lord Xie looked at Xie Shiming in front of him, a trace of heartache flashing in his eyes.
After all, she was the daughter he had raised for more than ten years. How could he not feel heartbroken when he saw her like this?
"I will investigate the death of Nanny and the Qian family members. We will soon know whether you are involved. Until the investigation is completed, you will stay in your room."
Lord Xie's arrangement was already giving her the utmost respect, while also taking his own face into consideration. After all, this matter was too appalling.
Madam Xie was not as indecisive as Lord Xie. "What are you doing standing there? Pull her away quickly."
After hearing this, the maids and old women hurried forward to hold Xie Shiming back.
Xie Shiming just watched the Xie couple leave, and thought about how it was the same at the beginning. The Xie couple had sent her away so heartlessly, to that rude couple.
Why, why, she did so much, but in the end it was still like this.
She held onto a last glimmer of hope, hoping they wouldn't find any evidence. She had done it so cleanly, they definitely wouldn't find it, and she would be completely innocent.
Xie Shiming thought so in his heart and kept hypnotizing himself.
Meanwhile, Bei Yutang finally breathed a sigh of relief after revealing Xie Shiming's true identity. It all depended on how Master Xie would deal with her. Her hands were stained with the blood of many people, and her final fate was unpredictable.
If Lord Xie was really merciful, Bei Yutang would naturally take action. After all, her target was her.
After Bei Yutang returned to the room, Mrs. Xie came over right after.
As soon as Madam Xie entered the room, Bei Yutang spoke before she could say anything, "Madam, are you here for your daughter's matter?"
Madam Xie nodded quickly, "That's right. I hope the Taoist priest can show me a clear way."
Mrs. Xie suddenly knelt down.
Bei Yutang signaled the maid beside her to help her up and said calmly, "I have used up most of my magical power today and cannot help you solve your doubts."
"I'm sorry for being so abrupt. I won't disturb you from resting."
Madam Xie took her people away. Before leaving the yard, she specifically instructed the two maids to serve the Taoist priest well.
The next day, Mrs. Xie couldn't wait to go over after breakfast.
"Is the Taoist priest meditating?" asked Mrs. Xie.
The two girls were unsure, "That's probably the case. Today's meals haven't been delivered yet."
"Why don't you send it over quickly? Forget it, Hong'er, go get the food and come in with me." Mrs. Xie ordered.
When they entered the room, there was no trace of Shangqing Zhenren, which made them very anxious. Mrs. Xie anxiously ordered her subordinates to look for him.
Hong'er saw a piece of rice paper with words written on it on the table. "Madam, do you think this was left by the Taoist priest?"
Mrs. Xie walked forward and saw the words written on the rice paper: "Three days later, West Lake."
She looked at the words, walked out the door, looked at the sky in the distance, suddenly knelt down, and bowed reverently and solemnly towards the distance.
Seeing this, the maids and old women in the courtyard knelt down with the lady and bowed devoutly towards the distance.
