The next day, Yun Chuwei got up very early.
She originally planned to disguise herself, sneak out, and go to the Ministry of Justice alone.
She hadn't expected that Yun Zheng would arrive before she even started disguising herself.
"Today is the day of the joint trial by the three judicial departments. Are you planning to go to the Ministry of Justice?" Yun Zheng asked.
Yun Chuwei didn't hide anything. She said, "I have some unresolved karmic ties with Yue Jingsheng. I'm going to see him on trial, which can be considered as settling those karmic debts."
The bodies of the three women were found by Lord Xu unintentionally, as she had led him there.
From that moment on, she was already entangled in this cause and effect.
She needs to see Yue Jingsheng put on trial before things will be considered complete.
Yun Zheng was worried about Yun Chuwei and said, "There are so many people waiting for you outside. If you go out, you might encounter danger!"
Yun Chu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll disguise myself before going out, and no one will be able to recognize me!"
Yun Zheng said seriously, "I'm still a little worried. I'll go with you. That way, we can look out for each other if anything happens!"
He felt that by following Yun Chuwei, he could protect her.
If they are stopped by the people, he can reveal his identity, provoke them, attract their attention, and give Yun Chuwei a chance to escape.
Upon hearing this, Yun Chuwei shook her head and said, "No need. If there is any danger, I can just run away in time. If you go, you will attract more attention from the people! Just stay at home and wait for me to come back."
Yun Zheng felt somewhat uneasy.
He shook his head and said, "No! I'm not comfortable with that! Either you take me with you, or you stay at home!"
Upon hearing this, Yun Chuwei said helplessly, "Then let's go together. I'll help you disguise yourself!"
Yun Chuwei took out the lifelike mask that her senior brother had given her before she went down the mountain, put it on the two of them, and then changed into a simple and plain outfit.
The two of them changed.
Guiyan, who was standing aside watching the changes in the two, couldn't help but marvel.
"Young Miss, you're amazing! I didn't even recognize you!"
Looking at his own face, Yun Zheng exclaimed in amazement, "Little sister, you're amazing!"
Yun Chuwei said calmly, "But my senior brother said that my disguise skills are only average. He also said that I shouldn't take risks using a mask."
Yun Zheng: ...
This disguise makes him look like a completely different person. Is that normal?
Guiyan said, "Is it because your senior brother's standards are too high, Miss?"
Yun Chuwei smiled as she recalled her senior brother's gentle face: "He doesn't ask anything of me, and he would never lie. You'll see when you meet him!"
The two became curious after hearing this.
Yun Chuwei didn't say much and left with Yun Zheng.
They disembarked from their carriage outside the Ministry of Justice.
As soon as Yun Chuwei stepped off the carriage, she saw two people leap across the roof of the Ministry of Justice.
The person walking in front was wearing a Yama mask, and the person walking behind was wearing a ghost mask.
Yun Chuwei's eyes widened. It was the Yama mask she had seen after her death in her previous life.
Those ghost masks were clearly the soldiers accompanied by the Yama mask.
Yun Zheng noticed Yun Chuwei's unusual behavior and asked, "What's wrong?"
As he asked the question, he looked in the direction Yun Chuwei was looking.
However, he saw nothing.
Yun Chuwei said in a low voice, "Wait here for me!"
"Where are you going?" Yun Zheng asked, puzzled.
"I'll explain in a bit!" Yun Chuwei said, then flew off in the direction where the Yama mask and the ghost-faced warriors had disappeared.
She assumed that the Yama Mask and the Ghost-Faced Warrior would emerge from the Ministry of Justice and enter the street on the left, so she turned the street to search for their whereabouts. However, she couldn't see anything.
After thinking for a moment, she concluded that the two people should not have left the Ministry of Justice.
Thinking it over, she flipped over and leaped directly into the Ministry of Justice.
She carefully avoided the guards of the Ministry of Justice and searched for the two men.
What she didn't expect was that before she could find the person, she was discovered by the guards of the Ministry of Justice.
"Who goes there? Stop right there!"
One of the guards called out to her, and the other guards came running.
At this moment, Yun Chuwei was wearing a disguise mask, and in the eyes of the guards, she was a stranger who had invaded the Ministry of Justice.
Yun Chuwei's lips twitched slightly as she flew towards a quiet courtyard.
The guards, however, pursued them relentlessly.
Suddenly, Yun Chuwei's hand was grabbed, and then she was pulled into a room.
She instinctively reached out to the person who was grabbing her, but the next moment she was pinned down by that person and pressed against the door.
Just as she was about to kick the man, she smelled a familiar scent.
She looked up and, sure enough, saw Xie Xuan.
She was somewhat surprised: "What are you doing here?"
Xie Xuan was about to say something when she was interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Your Highness, we just saw a strange woman, so we followed her. Have you seen her?" the person outside the door asked.
Xie Xuan said calmly, "That's one of my people. She's here to see me. You don't need to worry about her!"
Upon hearing this, those people quickly said, "Then we'll take our leave!"
After everyone outside had left, Xie Xuan realized that he had pressed Yun Chuwei against the door.
The woman's warm body and burning breath were so close.
He was reluctant to let her go, and even wanted to pull her into his arms.
"Xie Xuan, let go!" Yun Chu whispered.
Xie Xuan's ears burned slightly. He released the woman's hand and took two steps back.
After regaining her freedom, Yun Chuwei rubbed her wrists and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Xie Xuan looked at the woman's slightly red wrist and felt a pang of guilt.
He looked away and said in a low voice, "Yun Chuwei, shouldn't I be asking you that question?"
Yun Chuwei looked up at Xie Xuan: "How did you know it was me?"
Xie Xuan looked at Yun Chuwei and understood why she had asked that question.
At this moment, Yun Chuwei was wearing a mask.
The mask was indistinguishable from a human face; it was incredibly realistic.
However, he could still recognize her at a glance, regardless of her appearance.
He whispered, "I just know!"
Yun Chuwei's lips twitched slightly: "As expected, my senior brother was right. I have no talent for disguise!"
As she spoke, Yun Chu lowered her head slightly, seemingly lost in thought, or perhaps disappointed that her disguise had been exposed.
Xie Xuan glanced at her and said seriously, "No! You have a real talent for disguise!"
Yun Chuwei couldn't help but chuckle, "Don't lie to me!"
Xie Xuan immediately shook his head: "I'm not lying to you, I'm serious!"
Yun Chuwei looked helpless: "Then tell me, when did you recognize me?"
Xie Xuan thought for a moment and then said, "When I saw you running this way!"
This answer was exactly what Yun Chuwei had expected.
