When Mrs. Hu woke up, she found herself in a spacious and bright place. When she opened her eyes, she saw Chen Qi who was staring at her. Her mind, which was already a little confused, suddenly woke up.

She didn't bother to see where this place was, and got up from the ground and knelt down quickly.

"Mr.," she shouted respectfully and said nothing again, always feeling a little guilty.

"How could you faint outside? There are assassins sneaking in from the mansion tonight, do you know?" Chen Qi asked majesticly.

Hu Po Zi's heart skipped a beat, "Dude back to China, the old slave did meet the assassin, but he quickly knocked the old slave unconscious. The old slave only vaguely remembers that he is tall and not like a woman, and he doesn't know anything else."

"Where did you meet him?"

"Just right outside Qingpingyuan."

"You stay in Qingping Garden to clean the yard on weekdays and rarely get discharged. Why did you happen to leave the yard at the big night today?"

"Mr., the old slave heard the assassin's movement and was plotted against him when he was planning to go out quietly."

Chen Qi snorted coldly, "Then you are really brave."

Hu Po Zi kowtowed quickly, "I am timid, but I have never encountered an assassin sneaking in in the Shen Mansion. I have been with the Shen family for decades and have long regarded this place as my home. I am loyal to the Shen family. I am also afraid that the assassin will not be good for the Shen family, so I dare to follow it out."

This compliment made Chen Qi feel better, but the worries in his heart were still not relieved.

Seeing this, Chen Zhi spoke out to comfort him: "Don't worry too much, Father. I have asked someone to guard every exit of Chen's mansion. I wish that the assassin would be able to reveal his traces no matter how powerful the assassin was."

"When he reveals his trace, the man should have run away. He is good at it, maybe he doesn't even leave a shadow. It should be worthy of the important things in the mansion, including the girls' homes. If a flower-picking thief comes in, it will damage the reputation of our Chen Mansion."

When Chenzhou mentioned this, Chen Qi's mood suddenly became sank again, "Even if there is no flower-picking thief, no one wants to marry the girls of our Shen family. They are shameless and lose their chastity. Do you think there is not enough words to mock the Shen family outside? They have lost all their face!"

Chen Zhi and Chen Zhou both lowered their heads in awkward manner, and they were so embarrassed that they dared not speak.

Jin Chao came in and reported that it was Chen Tingxuan and others who came over. Chen Qi was worried and waved his hand to allow them to come in before he could think about it. But when he saw a large number of people coming in, he immediately regretted it.

When Mrs. Hu heard the movement behind her, her heart was slightly shocked.

"Part hu, what happened? Did you see the assassin?" Gan Ling and Chen Qi asked An immediately after asking.

Mrs. Hu said again to Gan Ling what she had just said to Chen Qi.

"Catch assassins in the mansion. What are your women's houses here to join in the fun? Hurry up and go back to the yard." Chen Qi drove the people up angrily.

The assassin still doesn't know where he is lurking. When he walks outside, he may be taken advantage of by the assassin. If he takes hostages, it will be even more amazing. If the servants don't worry, the master's life will be more expensive.

"Grandfather and grandson thought that if they could not catch the shadow of the assassin, perhaps because he was very skilled in martial arts and elusive, or maybe he was not an external thief, but an internal thief." Chen Tingxuan said.

As soon as these words were said, everyone present changed their expressions. The Shen family became a thief. What a serious matter!

"Xuan'er! Don't talk nonsense!" Chen Zhi scolded, "What kind of thieves will appear in the family?"

Once it is confirmed that it is a thief, the Shen family's houses and courtyards will be in turmoil again. When it comes to the internal thiefs that emerge from the aristocratic families, it is not a worry-free thing to really want to arrest them.

"Brother, don't be impatient. I see what my nephew Xuan said makes sense. We have sent people to catch them for so long, and we can't even see a shadow. Maybe there is really a ghost in our family. Now the problem is not to catch ghosts, but what does this ghost want to do?" Chen Zhou said.

The assassin sneaked in, not killing people or stealing things, could he just come in and have fun? Chen Qi's face turned even worse when he thought of this possibility. The great Shen family mansion became a back garden for others to visit.

Thinking about it this way, the possibility of an internal thief is indeed greater.

"Wu Ma Zi." Chen Tingxuan suddenly said, "You are the only one who saw the assassin. Keeping you is just revealing his traces. What's the benefit of doing this?"

"This... I don't know either."

"When did you see an assassin?"

"When the old slave cleans the fallen leaves in the yard."

"I saw it when I looked up?"

"A shadow flashed outside the wall. The old slave felt something was wrong, so he stuck out from the small door and took a look."

"Then why did he knock you out?"

"The old slave just walked out for a few steps and felt a pain in the back of his neck, and he fainted."

Chen Tingxuan nodded thoughtfully, "So, you just see his shadow."

"That's right, when the old slave saw his figure sneaky, he wanted to see it clearly and then call someone over. Who knew he had discovered it."

"Since you haven't contacted him, how did you say he's a man just now?"

Mrs. Hu paused and said, "The old slave is just speculating that he is tall and fast, and he doesn't look like a woman. In addition, it was already dark at that time, so the old slave... The old slave is not sure, so please ask the eldest son to make a clear explanation."

It does sound a bit reasonable, but Chen Qi always feels something is wrong.

Chen Tingxuan said lightly: "A sweeping woman actually has the courage to peep at the assassin. If the assassin comes from outside, there is no reason to leave a living mouth, but if it is a thief, you will not be able to get out of the way."

"I'm wronged! Everything I said just now is true, and I will never dare to deceive my master!"

Chen Tingxuan ignored her and shouted for justice, "You just said that you were knocked out when you went out of the small door, but according to the maids in Qingpingyuan, Gan Yan's personal maid Zhuer also fainted. At that time, even she thought she had fallen asleep accidentally. Later, she heard that there was an assassin and realized something was wrong."

Chen Zhi was also shocked, "You said that the assassin had entered Qingpingyuan? What did he do in Qingpingyuan?" Could it be that the man was really a flower-picking thief?

Gan Yan's face turned pale and suddenly felt a little scared. If she hadn't gone to Qingmingju, she might have met the assassin.

A chuckling came from the side, "Watching into the girl's yard, the assassin is so bold. Fortunately, Miss Gan, you went to your elder brother's side tonight, otherwise you would have suffered."

As soon as these words came out, the few people changed their qualities.
