After an hour, Mo Yuan looked around but couldn't find the second Cui Jinbai. He even suspected that Shen Xihe was overthinking.
Under the feet of the emperor, who dares to pretend to be an official appointed by the imperial court, and a fourth-rank official at the Dali Temple
"My Lord, I have inquired clearly. Today, Cui Shaoqing went from home to the Dali Temple to report for duty, and then rode his horse straight to the post station." Mo Yuan replied cautiously, "Based on the distance and time, Cui Shaoqing should not have been delayed along the way."
In other words, it was impossible for them to be replaced along the way, and Cui Jinbai also brought two people from the Dali Temple to follow him all the way.
Unless the baby was switched at home, who would dare to do it so blatantly
Shen Xihe's face remained calm after hearing this. She had expected this result long before Mo Yuan went to look for someone.
This man is definitely not a reckless person. Since he has come, he has made full preparations.
"Mo Yu." Shen Xihe called out. Mo Yu walked in and she asked, "Is he still asking questions?"
"Yes." Moyu replied, "Ziyu, Hongyu, and Biyu were all summoned for questioning, and so was I."
"What did he ask?" Shen Xihe felt that she had guessed the purpose of this man disguised as Cui Jinbai.
If he tries to find out more about her in various ways, he will be disappointed.
Shen Xihe is no longer the same Shen Xihe.
"I asked Linglong how she served the princess on a daily basis, how the princess treated Linglong, and how much Linglong knew about the princess..." Mo Yu repeated the story truthfully, including how she answered.
Sure enough, although they seemed to be asking about Linglong, in fact, every word they said was about her. Even though Biyu and the others were alert enough, they did not notice.
After all, Linglong is her personal maid, so it is only right for her to be involved in everything she does. The young official asked in such a businesslike tone that no one would think too much about it.
By now, he had already learned a lot about Shen Xihe's temper from Shen Xihe's four maids while investigating Linglong's affairs.
Shen Xihe looked outside the house with eyes that seemed to be filled with a light mist. Layers of golden yellow flowers were blooming around the tall and strong pines. She fell into deep thought.
Why did this person take so much trouble to find out about her
If it was for the Bone-Removing Pill, he shouldn't have taken action now, and he shouldn't have used such a method, and he wouldn't have given her the Immortal Belt.
But apart from the bone-removing pill, there is no other connection between them.
What exactly is his purpose
"Princess, Shaoqing Cui has taken his leave." Just as Shen Xihe was pondering this man's purpose, Hongyu came to report.
"Go and invite Cui Shaoqing over, and tell him that I have some doubts in my mind and ask him to solve them."
Shen Xihe instructed Hongyu and asked Moyu to close all the windows, changed the incense in the exquisite incense burner, covered the incense burner and placed it on the table, then he lifted the bead curtain and entered the inner room, sat on the couch, and leaned against the edge.
Cui Jinbai entered the inner room and saw Shen Xihe through the beaded curtain, leaning weakly against the bedpost with one hand supporting her head: "Princess."
"All of you leave. I have something to say to Cui Shaoqing alone." Shen Xihe instructed Mo Yu and others, then covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief and coughed a few times.
Cui Jinbai watched as people retreated and even closed the door.
Just as he was doubtful, Shen Xihe said softly: "I am weak and vulnerable, please forgive me, Mr. Cui."
