When Feng Fuce escorted Bai Zhi'er back to the palace, the little one had already fallen asleep from exhaustion.
She trusted him completely, sleeping sweetly in his embrace.
Feng Fuce sat in the carriage, looking down at the little person in his arms.
Even if she was a person of the Heavenly Dao, he had every opportunity now to kill her without anyone knowing.
Yet, Feng Fuce had not the slightest intention of doing so.
Bai Zhi'er made him feel that life before had been somewhat lonely.
With her by his side, it would surely be better.
Feng Fuce returned Bai Zhi'er to Ruizhu Palace before heading back to the Xiuluo Guard.
Lei Hu and the others had already returned.
"Marquis, the female corpse has been placed in the mortuary."
"Hmm." Feng Fuce wiped his hands with a white cloth. "Did you find out about An Suzhu's mother?"
Lei Hu spoke heavily, "When we went to Duke Ping's Mansion, a serious incident had just occurred there."
