章節 516: Invaders In Xi Manor

An Shing's cold eyes were full of suspicion and An San could see it. 

He frowned deeply in anger as well as frustration. Why was An Shing doubting him!

"I think he needs you to prove that Lady Li was innocent in the incident that happened four years ago. It was her sisters who schemed against her."

Realisation flashed across An Shing's eyes. 

It was possible. With the rumours that were spreading around the Imperial City with every passing shichen, maybe something happened in the Imperial Palace and now his master needed  him. 

"But there is no one to guard the manor."

He said the words out aloud unconsciously. 

An San frowned as he wondered where other shadow guards were. He wanted to ask but then decided against it as he didn't want his question to get unanswered later. 

So he said casually. 

"You can go. I will guard the manor for now."
