After Xiao Jinghong left, the Xiao Mansion grew much quieter.
The maids and household servants in the mansion kept their mouths shut about the Hundred Herbs Hall incident, as if someone had specifically instructed them to do so.
However, Chen Yi knew that while the mansion seemed calm on the surface, strange undercurrents were stirring beneath.
For one, the Personal Guards were still rushing about outside.
With Liu Si'er injured, the duty of patrolling the various medicine halls fell entirely to Wang Lixing, and several extra Personal Guards were assigned to him.
Several other Personal Guards went to the Imprisonment Department to help investigate the people who had appeared outside Hundred Herbs Hall that night.
This included Elder Demon Jia of the Illusory Sound Sect, the quartet who had fled, and the man in black who had injured Liu Si'er.
