"What’s wrong with you?"

Shu Ziyan thought about what she had forgotten, and suddenly felt a little annoyed: "I forgot to look for my aunt."

"This matter may require Huangfu Mingyuan's help." Jing Heng said.

Shu Ziyan thought thoughtfully for a moment, then continued: "I wonder if uncle will help."

"Go and ask. If he is willing to help you, a lot of things will make sense."

Shu Ziyan understood the meaning of Jing Heng's words almost instantly.

If Huangfu Mingyuan helped find Mu Xining, it means that what happened on the day of the family meeting was his hand.

Although all the evidence showed that this incident had nothing to do with him, it happened by chance.

The more coincidences there are, the more suspicious it becomes.

After Shu Ziyan chatted with Jing Heng for a while, she ended the call and went downstairs to find Aunt Yuan and asked for Huangfu Mingyuan's mobile phone number.

"Miss Sun, I don't have the young master's mobile phone number either."

"Then who has?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a man's cold voice coming from the door, "What do you want from me?"

Shu Ziyan looked back at the door. Huangfu Mingyuan was still wearing the black suit he had worn in the morning. He was standing at the door against the light. The sunlight from outside shone in, as if a layer of golden light had been cast on him.

It makes people feel inexplicably friendly.

Huangfu Mingyuan walked up to Shu Ziyan and looked at her with deep eyebrows: "Do you have anything to do with me?"

Shu Ziyan came back to her senses and thought about looking for her aunt, so she said softly, "Can you change the place to talk?"

Huangfu Mingyuan nodded, "Follow me."

Shu Ziyan followed him, and the two walked out of the main building.

The two came to a large tree with no one around. Huangfu Mingyuan was the first to speak: "What is so mysterious?"

Shu Ziyan had been looking at Huangfu Mingyuan since he appeared at the door.

She tried to read something on the other person's face, but as a member of the Cavaliers, she couldn't see through someone for the first time.

"Uncle, I want to see my aunt. My second uncle said before that my aunt is imprisoned in the ancestral temple tower in the back mountain."

Huangfu Mingyuan's deep eyes narrowed slightly, "Did Huangfu Mingyu tell you?"

"Well, I want to go to the Ancestral Temple Tower."

"Do you think you can go if you tell me?"

"If nothing else happened on the day of the family meeting, I think I would have gone up by now. I heard that the ancestral temple tower is only open during the triennial family meeting. You are now the acting head of the Huangfu family, so it should be okay."

When Shu Ziyan talked about the latter part, her voice became softer. She really didn't have much contact with Huangfu Mingyuan.

The first time I met him, I felt he was too cold.

Or because she received a box of expensive jewelry and diamonds from the other party, she became curious about this unsmiling uncle.

Ji Mingyu, who claimed to be her biological uncle, never gave her any gifts from beginning to end.

Even when she trusted him the most, on the day of the family meeting, she even thought of using her marriage to wear the symbolic black cheongsam of the Huangfu family.

"Okay, when do you want to go there?"

The surprise came so suddenly that Shu Ziyan almost didn't recover.

"What's wrong?" Huangfu Mingyuan repeated doubtfully.

Shu Ziyan reacted, "Is it okay to go over now?"

"good."

"Uncle, how can I get my aunt to come down?" She learned from her mother that it was difficult to come down after entering the ancestral temple tower.

Will her mother be sent down because her aunt went in?

Huangfu Mingyuan stopped and looked back at Shu Ziyan, "You want to save her?"

"May I?"

Shu Ziyan was actually very worried.

"We'll talk about it when we get up."

After receiving Huangfu Mingyuan's answer, Shu Ziyan's heart finally dropped.

I thought that after Mu Xining was rescued and the evidence of the old man's crime was beaten to death, he would be able to sit back and relax in the future.

Shu Ziyan followed Huangfu Mingyuan to the main building.

"Uncle, why are you here?"

"Because this is the only way to go up." Huangfu Mingyuan looked at the main building in front of him and spoke slowly.

For some reason, Shu Ziyan felt a chill to her bones from these words.

After Huangfu Mingyuan entered the house with Shu Ziyan, he went directly to the old man's study.

Although Shu Ziyan was curious and doubtful, there was a voice deep in her heart telling her.

She should trust Huangfu Mingyuan.

After entering the study room.

Shu Ziyan watched Huangfu Mingyuan take down a landscape painting from the wall of the study room, revealing a groove on the wall.

There is a keyhole in the groove.

Shu Ziyan just watched Huangfu Mingyuan take out a key and insert it into the hole of the groove.

The wall slowly moved away to both sides, revealing a staircase going up.

Shu Ziyan looked at the steps in front of her and was stunned.

"Uncle, what is this?"

"There is another road leading to the entrance of the ancestral temple tower in the back mountain. Only the family heads of the past generations know about it. After the family meeting every three years, they will lead people from all the family branches to go up to worship." Huangfu Mingyuan explained.

"Only you know this secret path?" Shu Ziyan asked.

Huangfu Mingyuan did not deny it, but took out a flashlight from the wall on one side.

"Follow up."

Shu Ziyan followed Huangfu Mingyuan, and the two of them walked for about ten minutes by the light of the flashlight, arrived at an empty room that looked like an attic, and then took the elevator.

"Uncle, why did the old man build an elevator here?"

"To make it easier for you to go up." Huangfu Mingyuan replied, without any unnecessary expression in his voice.

Even with a hint of resentment.

After running for a few minutes, the elevator stopped.

Huangfu Mingyuan pressed the door-open button, and the elevator door slowly opened, revealing a lush mountain forest in front of him.

Not far away there is a staircase that can only be walked by the last two people. The end of the staircase looks like the direction of the ancestral temple tower.

"Let's go."

Shu Ziyan looked at the scene in front of her and hesitated inexplicably. Was there something wrong with her intuition?

"Are you worried that I will murder you?" Huangfu Mingyuan looked back at her and smiled.

A hint of embarrassment appeared on Shu Ziyan's face after her thoughts were revealed, and she had no choice but to keep up with him.

The two of them walked up the steps one after the other.

After walking for almost twenty minutes, we arrived in front of the ancestral temple tower.

The shape of the ancestral temple tower is very similar to those famous ancient pagodas in China. The tower has a total of twelve floors, and each floor looks the same size.

"Ancestral Temple Tower?"

"Well, do you want to go in?" Huangfu Mingyuan asked.

Shu Ziyan looked at the closed door of the ancestral temple tower, thinking that her mother had been imprisoned here for many years, and felt a little uncomfortable.

"Auntie is really here?"

Huangfu Mingyuan looked back at her and said nothing.

After a long time.

"Are you doubting me?"

Shu Ziyan still didn't come forward and looked directly at him, "I can't understand you."

"Then what?"

"Isn't it normal to doubt you?"
