Chapter 9: Almost Exposed
When she said this, she directly blocked Shen Muqing's next words.
Shen Jinli had already been at odds with Shen Muqing, and now when he heard Bai Yan say this, he was even more displeased.
"The two girls are talking privately, what are you mixing up there? You see, it's not your sin to make other girls so unhappy. Shen Jinli glared at Shen Muqing unhappily.
Shen Muqing is now being sung by two people as if they were singing double reeds, and they forcibly blocked all the words in their stomachs.
"It's not too early now, the folk girl will go back first, otherwise, if she is bumped into by more people, I'm afraid that the explanation will not be clear." Bai Yan said and prepared to slip away.
Shen Jinli suddenly stopped her: "The girl was entangled by my brother today, if it weren't for me, I'm afraid that you are still entangled here by him, and now I helped you send him, doesn't the girl thank me?" β
Hearing this, Bai Yan turned his head and glanced at Shen Jinli, none of these two people really saved trouble.
She put her hands in her sleeves and rubbed them: "Your Highness, as the prince of my dynasty, is the future lord of the world, I don't know what the people have to get into the eyes of His Highness." β
Shen Jinli sighed and pointed at Bai Yan: "This little mouth is really too good to say, but it's just a good intention, and the girl actually takes it seriously." β
Good intentions? If you have to ask her to give something, Bai Yan rolled her eyes in her heart.
She pulled out a sachet with extremely ordinary workmanship from her sleeve and asked Yejian to hand it to Shen Jinli.
"A small sachet is not a tribute, but since His Highness only needs a well-intentioned head, then I think this thing is enough." After speaking, Bai Yan pulled his head and disappeared into the depths of the alley without looking back.
Seeing Bai Yan leave, Shen Jinli said in a loud voice, interesting!
Shen Muqing turned his head sideways, just looking at Shen Jinli calmly, until he noticed him.
"Why did the third brother look at me with such eyes? You said that you are such a delicate girl's house, you have to block people at the mouth of this alley, but the two girls' families just whispered something, as for such a big fight? If it really spreads out tomorrow, not only will it ruin the reputation of the girl's family, but even you will be implicated. Shen Jinli shook his head and said with emotion.
Shen Muqing didn't speak, he was a person who had seen how quickly Bai Yan changed his face, with his intuition, he felt that this woman was not simple at all, but this prince brother who only wanted to deal with him still regarded her as a naΓ―ve girl.
"If the imperial brother has time to care about me, you might as well care about your own affairs, after all, my father has sent several tasks, but I haven't given the imperial brother any errands, and I don't know if I feel sorry for the imperial brother's health now." After Shen Muqing said this, he left without looking back.
Walking on the road at night, looking at the people coming and going to the night market next to him, Shen Muqing's heart was full of heaviness.
"Your Highness, there must be something strange about this matter tonight, we just saw with our own eyes that the white girl and the Oiran of the Night Banquet Building, the two of them have been whispering together for so long, but she said that she was whispering between girlfriends, how is this possible? Why don't we go to the night banquet building and see if their Oiran Gu is there? He Ling suggested.
Shen Muqing directly refused.
He had never been to the Night Banquet Building, and he didn't want to go to such a place, so it was really not worth making an exception for such a woman.
But Heling is unwilling, if Gu Congwan can be found now, maybe this is a breakthrough, and many things can be found next.
"You go to investigate this matter secretly, and it's not too late to talk about it after you find clues." Shen Muqing gritted his teeth word by word and said.
If there is a problem with Bai Yan, then Lin Anyi, who is covering for her, must also have a problem.
The successive events made Shen Muqing's heart feel very bored.
No clues have been found about Huang Hu's death, and after his death, who will inherit his position is also a question.
It's been so long, and if these two things can't be resolved, I'm afraid that my father will have to hand over this matter to someone else.
"Your Royal Highness, you have directly confronted His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today, but I am afraid that His Royal Highness will be unwilling when he goes back, and when the time comes, he will put on small shoes for you behind his back, why don't your subordinates send someone to monitor the prince's side, right?" He Ling asked uneasily.
It's not a matter of once or twice for the prince to put on small shoes for him, and Shen Muqing doesn't bother to bother with him.
It's just a trick like a clown jumping off the beam, what's there to be afraid of?
Unconsciously, the two of them actually walked to the night banquet building, looking at this magnificent night banquet building, Shen Muqing stopped here.
He Ling followed behind Shen Muqing with some curiosity, looking up at the night banquet building, and there was a lot of laughter and laughter inside.
"Your Highness, we've already come here, why don't we go in and have a look." Heling proposed.
Shen Muqing didn't speak, he left the door of the night banquet building directly with his hands behind his back.
Gu Congwan, who was sitting at the window on the second floor upstairs, observed Shen Muqing and the two downstairs.
After watching the two of them leave, Gu Congwan squinted his eyes.
It seems that in this capital, it is necessary to stay away from the three princes.
As soon as the matter of the blood drops and jade pendants was found out, he encountered such a troublesome person as Shen Muqing, and it seemed that the pavilion master's road in the capital would be more difficult in the future.
However, as soon as he returned to Lin Mansion, Bai Yan bumped into Lin Anyi.
"Pavilion Master, did you have an argument with the Third Prince just outside?" Lin Anyi looked at Bai Yan uneasily and asked.
Bai Yan nodded.
Because he pretended to be asleep, Lin Anyi couldn't go out to help Bai Yan block Shen Muqing, and he was now afraid that she would blame him.
"Okay, you don't have to be too nervous, I may have to continue to live with you in the near future, you have to always be aware of the gaps that may be mixed into the mansion." Bai Yan said, waved his hand, and walked towards the courtyard.
Tonight's events made her a little tired, and she didn't bother to bother with anything else, and wanted to rest directly.
Looking at Lin Anyi's uneasy eyes, Ye Jian shook his head slightly, signaling that it was okay.
Probably because he had to go to court the next morning, Lin Anyi forced himself to go back to rest even if he was uneasy.
The next day, as soon as he arrived at the door of the Qinzheng Palace, he saw Shen Muqing, who was already standing at the door, but just didn't go in.
The moment he saw Shen Muqing, Lin Anyi's heart was a little uneasy.
"Lord Lin, morning." Shen Muqing took the initiative to greet Lin Anyi.
Seeing that he couldn't hide, Lin Anyi could only step forward with a smile on his face: "Why did His Royal Highness stand here and not go in, it was even deeper in the morning, I was afraid that I would accidentally catch a cold, and I would be uncomfortable when I turned around." β
