Not long after the maid left with the dirty water, Jiang Ning also left the yard seemingly accidentally.

Jiang Ning quietly followed the maid, and when no one was around, Jiang Ning immediately took action, covering the maid's mouth from behind and dragging her into a corner.

"Uh-huh! Uh-huh!" The maid struggled desperately, but couldn't scream even if she wanted to.

"Stop talking!" Jiang Ning lowered his voice, hiding his true voice, "I'm going to ask you a few questions, and you should answer them honestly. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."

The maid's face was full of panic. After hearing Jiang Ning's words, she immediately nodded tremblingly.

"First question, what is the name of the young lady in your residence?" Jiang Ning asked, then slightly released his hand covering the maid.

"There are... two young ladies in our house. No... I don't know... which one are you asking about?" the maid asked cautiously.

"Tell them both, and then tell me more about them."

"Yes...yes, the eldest lady's name is Gu Qingyu, and she is a famous genius in the Gu family and even Luozhou. The second...the second lady's name is Gu Qingyi. She has a gentle temper and is kind to others."

"Is there anyone around them who knows them?" Jiang Ning asked again.

"Yes, the eldest young lady Gu Qingyu has two personal maids named Yunqing Yunxiang. The second young lady only has one personal maid named Qiao He. In addition, people who know them include the head of the Gu family and their respective My biological mother." The maid tremblingly said a lot.

Then Jiang Ning asked all the doubts again. When he was almost finished, he struck the maid on the back of her neck and knocked her unconscious.

After asking, Jiang Ning had a preliminary understanding of this place.

Since she came to the world of murals, that is to say, everything here is closely related to the goddess on the murals.

Based on the maid's description just now, Jiang Ning guessed that the owner of her current body, Gu Qingyu, should be the goddess on the mural.

Could the tragedy that changed this place refer to the tragedy that happened to Gu Qingyu?

Jiang Ning returned to the courtyard where she was just now. Before she could clear her thoughts, cheers suddenly came from outside the door.

"The eldest lady is back! The eldest lady is back victorious!"

The excited Xiaosi spread the good news throughout Gu's house while running.

"The eldest lady is back?! It's great that the eldest lady won the first battle!"

"The eldest lady is indeed a genius, and she is simply the nemesis of the evil spirit clan."

"Go, go and see!"

The maids in the courtyard all ran out in a swarm, and Jiang Ning followed.

Walking to the door, Jiang Ning saw the little girl in pink skirt, Yun Qing.

"Yunxiang, why are you lingering here? Why don't you come with me to pick up the lady?" Yun Qing immediately called Jiang Ning and walked out of the Gu Mansion.

The two of them stood under the steps of the gate of Gu's Mansion and saw a large group of people walking towards Gu's Mansion from a distance.

The leader was wearing silver armor, and the white clothes under the armor were faintly exposed. His black hair was tied on top of his head with a silver crown. The girl's face was still a bit immature, but it showed a cold and toughness that was not suitable for her age.

"Miss!" Yun Qing greeted her excitedly, and Jiang Ning followed Yun Qing, showing excitement at the same time.

"Congratulations to sister for winning the first battle." A sweet-looking girl with a pleasant face said.

Jiang Ning turned around and saw a girl standing at the door of the Gu Mansion. She must be a member of the Gu Mansion, also called Sister Gu Qingyu. She must be the second young lady of the Gu family, Gu Qingyi.

"Yes." Gu Qingyu just nodded lightly, dismounted, handed the horse rope to Xiao Si, and then said to Jiang Ning, "Yunxiang, Yunqing, come with me."

Facing Gu Qingyu's perfunctory response, the smile on Gu Qingyi's face cracked, and she quickly hid it.

Jiang Ning caught a glimpse and silently noted it in his mind.

Gu Qingyu took the two of them directly into the study. As soon as they entered, Yun Qing immediately laid out paper and pen for Gu Qingyu, and Jiang Ning also went to the side to sharpen ink with a look.

With the pen and ink ready, Gu Qingyu picked up the pen and started writing.

Jiang Ning watched from the side. Gu Qingyu seemed to be writing a letter, but there was no note on the letter who wrote it or to whom.

After finishing writing, Gu Qingyu asked Yun Qing to deliver the letter, and then assigned a task to Jiang Ning.

"I picked up a man near the battlefield. You can ask the doctor to help him treat his wounds and let him stay at the house to do some chores."

"Yes." Jiang Ning nodded and exited the room.

Jiang Ning was slightly surprised to see the people Gu Qingyu brought back. The half-grown boy had injuries almost everywhere on his body, and some were still bleeding.

But the young man seemed to feel no pain, stubbornly looking at Gu Qingyu's closed door.

"Follow me." Jiang Ning said, but the young man still stood still, his eyes unable to move.

"If you want to repay Miss, you have to heal your injuries first." Jiang Ning added.

Hearing this, the young man withdrew his gaze and followed Jiang Ning away.

Pushing open the door of Yun Xiang's residence, Jiang Ning tried his best to act familiar.

"You wait for me in the yard first, and I'll go find the doctor." Jiang Ning asked the young man to stay in his yard, and then went to find the doctor of the Gu family.

When she found the doctor and came back, the young man was still sitting on the stool, maintaining the same posture as when she left, with his eyes lowered, wondering what he was thinking.

While the doctor was treating the young man's injuries, Jiang Ning walked around Gu's house and silently took note of the terrain.

When Jiang Ning came back from shopping, the doctor had already treated the wound. The boy was wrapped up like a rice dumpling, lying upright on the bed, unable to move.

The young man's injury took more than a month to recover, and he finally recovered. During this month, Jiang Ning observed and studied at the same time, and now he can play Yun Xiang perfectly.

At the same time, in this month, because of Gu Qingyu's great victory in the first battle, her reputation among the people has increased. More and more people have suggested that she be regarded as a goddess to specifically fight against the evil spirits.

A month later, a distinguished guest came to the Gu family. In order to please the distinguished guest, the head of the Gu family deliberately arranged for two young ladies from the Gu family to receive him personally.

Gu Qingyu wanted to receive distinguished guests, so Yun Qing Yunxiang naturally had to follow him.

In front of the Gu Mansion, a high-profile and luxurious carriage stopped. Behind and behind the carriage were hundreds of attendants and maids.

The carriage door opened, and a man in a blue brocade robe slowly got out of the carriage.

Seeing the man's arrogance and arrogance, Jiang Ning raised her eyebrows slightly. She felt that he looked familiar inexplicably.

"Mr. Xia." Gu Qingyu and Gu Qingyi saluted.

"Yeah." The man hummed perfunctorily and stepped directly into the gate of Gu's mansion.

Hearing this familiar 'um', Jiang Ning was completely sure of what he was thinking.

When Mr. Xia entered the door, Gu Qingyi hurriedly followed him.Only Gu Qingyu's master and servant were left at the door of Gu's mansion.

"Let's go." Gu Qingyu walked towards the reception hall, with Jiang Ning and Yun Qing following behind her.

"Why are you so close to me? Also, the smell on you makes me so smelly that I can't even open my eyes." The three of them arrived at the door of the front hall when they heard Mr. Xia's disgusted voice coming from inside.
