Hong Ling looked at the woman who looked exactly like the miss in the family. She was clearly the fifth miss! How could she not recognize her?

“Young miss, you don’t remember this handmaiden? This is Hong Ling! ” Hong Ling grabbed Ye Zhen’s clothes and said, “You’re alive miss! This is a miracle!”

Ye Zhen took a deep breath, looked back at the servant at a distance, and asked in a low voice, “What are you doing here?”

She couldn’t believe Hong Ling. The maid who forced her to drink the poisonous wine had served her since childhood. What about this woman in front of her?

She perfectly recalled the scene of that day. At that time, Hong Ling was not at her side. Even the fire engulfed her palace. She did not even see her shadow. Where did she go?

Hong Ling cried and said, “On that day, the Hong Yan locked this handmaiden inside a room. When this handmaiden woke up, the whole palace was on fire! Xiao Qi saved me… But miss, you… you were all right. The handmaiden heard that you were caught in the fire!”

“Wang Fei of Qin dynasty is dead.” Ye Zhen said flatly but felt shocked that Xiao Qi had saved Hong Ling.

Xiao Qi was a white wolf that she raised. It was sent to her when it was still a pup, and she raised it with her own hands. She used to take it with her only as a pet, but she didn’t expect it to save Hong Ling.

Hong Ling could not understand Ye Zhen’s words, “Miss, you …”

“This is not the place to talk. Where do you live?” Ye Zhen asked softly, she didn’t expect the former maid to be still alive, which was a pleasant surprise.

Her former maid, whom she personally trained, including the traitor Hong Yan, had been killed by Lu Lingzhi. Hong Ling was the confidant she valued most and would not betray her at all.

Hong Ling could become Ye Zhen’s confidant. It also helped that she was also a wise and transparent person. After taking a look at Ye Zhen, she knew that the girl in her family must have a different life than she imagined. “Miss, this handmaiden lives in Black Carp Lane.”

Black Carp Lane! Corners of Ye Zhen’s mouth slightly evoked a little smile, “Alright, you must go! I’ll have time to find you.”

Hong Ling watched Ye Zhen turn around and leave, her face startled.

The fifth miss acted very differently from before! Is she really the fifth miss Ye Zhen? If not, how can she look so similar?

After Xiao Qi rescued her, she quietly went to visit the vicinity of the Wang Fei’s palace the next day. There were no survivors left. They all said that the Wang Fei had died in the fire. She cried for some time and felt worthless for their miss.

Hong Ling watched Ye Zhen get into the carriage and leave, and her doubts deepened.

Ye Zhen did not look back at Hong Ling. When the servant boy asked her, she just said that the other party was asking for directions, then she quickly got on the carriage. Her white and slender fingers covered her eyes, forcing the sourness in her heart to show a faint smile.

She was snubbed by Mo Rongzhan and abandoned in her palace for two years. In order to find something to do, she started to do some small business. It was not convenient for her to show her face, but her servants could.

It was not convenient for her to show her face, but her descendants could. In those two years, she opened a trade shop in Jinkou City and trained several people who worked for her outside.

Those people were all her part of her dowry, and her father personally picked them for her. After many things that happened, she was not so sure now whether they were still loyal to her.

Black Carp Lane is the place where she used to meet with those people. She didn’t want others to know that she has shops in Jinkou City, so she let Hong Ling buy a house in Black Carp Lane to serve as a meeting place where she could meet her workers.

When goods were sent to the capital, they were first placed in that house.

Ye Zhen was fortunate. Fortunately, she didn’t tell Lu Lingzhi about it at that time; otherwise, those people would probably not have escaped death.

If all her former confidants could come back and remain loyal to her as before, they would be of great help to anything she would want to do in the future.

She has never been a conceited person, but revenge was not easy on her own. She needed people to help her.

Today she couldn’t talk more with Hong Ling. She was afraid that the servant boy Quan Fu would tell Lu Lingzhi when they return.

And she was even more afraid that Lu Lingzhi would find Hong Ling, and have her killed.
