Luo Shaoxuan's father was the imperial tutor and always stayed in the capital. So even though he loved Luo Shaoxuan very much, he couldn't take care of Luo Shaoxuan who was far away in Jiangnan. That's why the Luo family was controlled by Madam Luo.
That's why the original owner was able to take care of Luo Shaoxuan without being discovered when he was unconscious in his previous life.
Han Lingxi went to the kitchen while lost in thought. Of course, she was in a state where no one could see her. If someone saw her, wouldn't that scare them to death?
Han Lingxi took some porridge from the kitchen. After all, taking porridge wouldn't attract attention, and Luo Shaoxuan couldn't eat anything else in his current state. As soon as Han Lingxi passed through the wall, she saw two maids whispering to each other. Han Lingxi recognized one of them as Hongjuan, the head maid of Madam Luo, and couldn't help but go over to listen to what they were saying.
Han Lingxi felt that since she became a ghost, eavesdropping on other people's conversations had become incredibly easy. She stood openly next to two people, and they didn't notice at all.
"Sister Hongjuan, are you sure the things you asked me to do won't be discovered?"
The young maid asked anxiously, while the one named Hongjuan seemed a little impatient.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen."
"But I heard that the young master has fainted. If it is found out that I did it, I will definitely be beaten to death."
Hongjuan's words did not comfort the young maid working in the kitchen; she still looked panicked.
"Qingzhu, what do you have to worry about? Even if something happens, Madam will take responsibility. Besides, I have already made arrangements. The doctor who treats the young master will only say that he suddenly fell seriously ill and that no one else is involved."
Hongjuan grew even more impatient, and after saying that, she walked away haughtily, leaving Xiaozhu still trembling with fear.
Han Lingxi frowned. Could it be that Madam Luo poisoned Luo Shaoxuan? But Han Lingxi knew very well that the doctor couldn't find out what poison Luo Shaoxuan had been poisoned with, not because of a little maid's influence, but because the poison was too rare. Such a poison was not something a woman from a secluded household could obtain. Han Lingxi had a feeling that the poison was related to the Crown Prince's investigation into corrupt officials in Jiangnan. But what was the conversation between those two maids just now?
Han Lingxi suddenly revealed a sly smile. Since she was a ghost, she should play the role of a ghost.
Han Lingxi followed Qingzhu until Qingzhu returned to her room. Because Qingzhu had been in a daze for the past few days, the kitchen manager gave her a few days off, so the room that originally housed four people was now empty except for her.
Just as Qingzhu closed the door and prepared to rest, Han Lingxi took the opportunity to enter the room and reveal her form. Of course, this time Han Lingxi disguised herself, striving to make it clear at a glance that she was an evil spirit. Qingzhu closed the door and turned around to see Han Lingxi standing behind her. She was so frightened that she wanted to scream, but found that she could not make a sound, which made her even more terrified.
Seeing Qingzhu's reaction, Han Lingxi knew that her work had been quite successful. She mentally gave herself a perfect score before speaking with a stern expression.
"Qingzhu, I am a soul-reaping ghost from the underworld. You have committed heinous acts, and I will now take you to the underworld to suffer a hundred kinds of punishments."
When Qingzhu saw Han Lingxi's floating body, she immediately believed that Han Lingxi had come to take her soul, and she was so frightened that her legs went weak and she knelt on the ground.
“Tell me quickly what you have done.”
Han Lingxi continued, urging her to tell her what she wanted to know.
