The affair between Princess Yangling and Munuha was known to everyone, and no one dared to discuss it behind their backs. His Majesty's ambiguous attitude made most people who knew about it pretend to be ignorant.
Munuha also stayed in the Honglu Guesthouse and did not dare to go out easily. It was not because he was worried about people talking or slandering him. He was a man, so why would he care about rumors? He felt that something was wrong. Why was Princess Yangling being framed
Was it Shen Xihe who framed Princess Yangling, or was it Shen Xihe who was helped secretly by someone to escape from the predicament
All kinds of questions came to Munuha's mind, and for some reason he always had an ominous premonition lingering around him that couldn't be shaken off.
And why did he find it hard to control himself when he entered the room that day? The suspicious scent aroused his suspicion.
Unfortunately, the Prince of Dai's Mansion was not a place they could search, and in order to prevent the matter from being exposed, they did not dare to let Emperor Youning investigate further. He did not dare to say that he was ambushed, so no one investigated the incense in the room.
These suspicious things made him believe that someone was watching him and intended to harm him, so he could only hide in the Honglu Guesthouse and observe secretly.
It has to be said that Xiao Huayong was helpless during the days he was hiding. Munuha had no relatives in Kyoto and could not hire anyone to take him out. Xiao Huayong was also being watched by Emperor Youning's men and could not go to the Honglu Guesthouse to kidnap people in a high-profile manner.
Emperor Youning has been very angry with Munuha these days and would not summon him.
Although he hated Munuha, he was not an impatient person, so he simply let Munuha relax for a few days and let his guard down.
These past few days, Shen Xihe stayed at the princess's mansion to collect some snow water, pickle some plum blossoms, and exchange letters with her father and brother. Xue Jinqiao came to the mansion by chance and saw her painting, and asked her to teach him.
Xue Jinqiao's childhood experience delayed her enlightenment, and she gradually became impatient to learn these things. She focused on learning martial arts and wanted to become a person that no one could bully. Her handwriting was still neat, and it was her great-aunt who forced her to practice hard.
Now seeing Shen Xihe painting, she became interested. Shen Xihe had never taught anyone before, and her painting skills were not very sophisticated, but she was more than enough to give people enlightenment, so she also patiently taught Xue Jinqiao.
"The princess is so gentle to Seventh Lady." After seeing Xue Jinqiao off that day, Biyu couldn't help but sigh.
"Seventh Lady will be my sister-in-law in the future, so I will naturally treat her closer." Shen Xihe smiled when he saw Qi Pei being pushed over by the servants.
After nearly a month of recuperation, Qi Pei's health has improved a lot and his face has become more radiant.
"I'm here to say goodbye to the princess." Qi Pei said.
"You have just stopped taking your medicine. It's cold and slippery today, so it's not suitable to set off." Shen Xihe reminded.
"I didn't leave the capital. My old servant found me and bought a house in the capital." Qi Pei explained, "I am a foreign man after all. I made an emergency decision before, but now I can't stay in the princess's mansion."
Shen Xihe nodded when he heard this: "In that case, you can go."
Qi Pei was silent for a moment before he said, "Princess, I am disabled and I know I shouldn't have such wild dreams, but I still want to recommend myself to the Princess's mansion and serve her."
Shen Xihe raised her eyebrows. She had never thought of recruiting Qi Pei, a young man one year younger than her. She saved him because it involved the Yang Mansion, and the Yang Mansion happened to be the obstacle she wanted to clear.
