Princess Yangling felt a little timid in front of Cui Jinbai's expressionless face. She was in the wrong and was also afraid of causing trouble in front of Emperor Youning, so she could only leave unwillingly.
Bu Shulin pushed the door open, poked his head out, and watched Princess Yangling leave before he stood up and leaned against the door with his arms crossed: "Tsk tsk tsk tsk, even the upright and honest Cui Shaoqing can lie all the time."
Cui Jinbai's servant couldn't stand Bu Shulin's shamelessness. He just said that their Silang was ungrateful. Look at the face of Master Bu. He didn't even see who their Silang was lying for.
Cui Jinbai walked in and stared at Bu Shulin with a serious look.
Bu Shulin felt a little guilty when he was looked at by him. He moved closer to the door and was about to slip away, but Cui Jinbai grabbed his shoulder.
"Cui Shitou, what are you doing? You dragged me into the house in broad daylight? Are you so impatient? At least let me take a shower..."
"Shut up!" Cui Jinbai, who could no longer bear it, sneered, "If you say one more word, I will throw you to the Fifth Princess."
He opened his mouth, and the retort was about to come out, but Bu Shulin immediately covered his mouth with his hands.
Cui Jinbai dragged her into the house and handed her the case file he had read before: "I didn't lie. You really have to help me handle this case."
Bu Shulin took a few secret glances and immediately became interested when he saw the word "tomb robbery". He stopped laughing. This should be the information Cui Jinbai had specially collected, which was a summary of reports of tomb robbery from various places.
If you don't search, you won't know. Once you search, you will find that from three years ago to now, there have been more cases of grave digging and tomb robbery in various places than in the previous thirty years. It's just that there are only one or two cases in each place, which did not cause any waves.
There are records of some cases being reported but then withdrawn, which is enough to show that someone is backing and putting pressure on local officials. This is by no means a trivial matter.
After reading it, Bu Shulin closed the scroll and glanced at Cui Jinbai without saying a word.
"The princess is pestering you now. You were the first to discover the case. I don't think His Majesty has any intention of granting the princess to you in marriage. It is not appropriate for me to investigate thoroughly. As soon as I leave Kyoto, someone will definitely target me. It is best if you leave Kyoto." No one was curious about where Bu Shulin was going.
He walked in the sparse woods without saying a word.
Cui Jinbai frowned slightly: "I will ask His Majesty to agree to leave the capital so as to avoid the princess's entanglement."
Bu Shulin remained silent.
Cui Jinbai's face darkened slightly: "Going out to avoid the limelight can also relax your mind. You have been trapped in Kyoto for many years, don't you want to go out and take a look?"
Bu Shulin stared at him without saying a word.
Cui Jinbai was completely annoyed: "What do you mean?"
Bu Shulin took up his pen, spread out the paper, and wrote the word "可" in one stroke.
"Are you mute?" Cui Jinbai stared at her solemnly.
Bu Shulin was not afraid of death and continued to write: You told me not to say another word.
The veins on Cui Jinbai's forehead began to throb again: "Get out!"
"Tsk, you are such a good boy, but you have no manners at all. You don't have any of the virtues and humility of a child from an aristocratic family." Bu Shulin stabbed Cui Jinbai as soon as he opened his mouth. Facing Cui Jinbai's face, which was as gloomy as the dark clouds before a storm, Bu Shulin turned a blind eye and said, "Tell me, why do you suddenly care about this matter?"
Bu Shulin said jokingly, "When I came to look for you, you didn't take it seriously. But when you saw the princess go to the silver shop in person, you got anxious and took it to heart. Tsk..."
