Chapter 745: Chapter 742: Master_1

Miss Shen straightened up and hurried out of the side room, covering her arm. She bowed to Bai Qingyan, who had a somber expression on her face.

"Bai Qingyan!"

"Did you injure your arm?" Bai Qingyan turned to ask the mansion physician. "Is it serious?"

The physician who followed behind Miss Shen quickly replied, "It’s just a surface wound, it’s not serious." _{freewebnσvel.cѳm}

"Bai Qingyan, I have important news to report." Miss Shen spoke solemnly.

"Let’s go inside first..."

Bai Qingyan supported Miss Shen as they stepped into the main room. She heard Miss Shen say, "I saw our master! Master... seems not to recognize me anymore. If I hadn’t recognized him, I might not be alive now! Master he..."

Miss Shen’s voice carried a slight tremble.

For so many years, everyone thought the master was dead. Unexpectedly, the master was still alive... and in Dadu City.

Miss Shen had blamed Xiao Ruohai for the master’s death all these years. She never expected that the master was actually alive.

During the fierce battle earlier, if it weren’t for her shock when she recognized the master and called out to him loudly, making him stop... her arm might have been gone.

But, the master’s gaze was also confused as he looked at Miss Shen. He appeared to be in pain, clutching his head as he ran away, leaving his sword behind. Miss Shen couldn’t catch up to him. She could only bring back the master’s short sword.

"Are you sure you didn’t mistake anyone? Is it truly Master Shen Bozhong?" Bai Qingyan helped Miss Shen sit down, unbuttoning her cloak as she asked.

Miss Shen took out the master’s short sword from behind her. "Look, Bai Qingyan, this is master’s short sword!"

Bai Qingyan picked up the short sword and walked to the window, examining it in the light. The entire sword was black, and the patterns on the blade were indeed Shen Bozhong’s.

Miss Shen walked to stand behind Bai Qingyan. "Master’s identity is secretive. In the Bai family, besides the Crown Prince and you, no one else knows. If master has been in Dadu City all these years without anyone knowing, it’s not impossible! But... I’m puzzled about who can command or control the master to kill me! Apart from the Li family, I can’t think of anyone else."

Putting aside the master for now, Miss Shen had just encountered Li Mingrui’s schemes against Bai Qingyan in prison. Shortly after, someone came to assassinate her. It was clear who was behind it.

Miss Shen even suspected that the master was ordered by Li Mingrui to kill her. With master’s skills, hiding in prison without being noticed was easy. Master came so quickly that the order must have been given by Li Mingrui himself.

"Bai Qingyan, Master should now be under Li Mingrui’s control, and he is probably in the Court of Judicial Review’s prison. Otherwise, he wouldn’t return so quickly!" Miss Shen clenched her fists, her face full of killing intent. "I don’t know what the Li family has done to master!"

"Don’t worry. If it really is Master Shen Bozhong, I will definitely bring him back." Bai Qingyan patted Miss Shen’s shoulder and assured her. "Someone, prepare the carriage... we’re going to the Left Prime Minister’s mansion."

Bai Jinxiu, carrying Wang Geer, had just crossed into Qinghui Courtyard’s main entrance when she heard Bai Qingyan was going to the Left Prime Minister’s mansion. She quickly turned, signaling Cuibi to take Wang Geer to her mother’s courtyard.

"Second Young Lady..." Zhenming stepped forward and bowed to Bai Jinxiu.

Bai Jinxiu nodded, lifted her skirt, and ascended the porch steps. Zhenming hurriedly held the curtain for Bai Jinxiu.

"Eldest Young Lady..." Bai Jinxiu unfastened her cloak as she entered and asked, "Eldest Young Lady, are you going to the Left Prime Minister’s mansion?"
