Chapter 359 Shu He Confronts Shen Chuan
On the way back, Xizhu secretly glanced at that calm face, but couldn't guess what he was thinking.
"Your Highness, there are discrepancies between what Shu Yue said and what I have investigated in recent years. This matter is due to my incompetence, which has caused you to misunderstand Miss Shu."
The front and back of the investigation were basically consistent, but he couldn't find the middle part. But that was normal, after all, there were only four people in the world who knew the details.
However, according to Shu Yue, the prince was awake when Shu He handed the potion to him. So how come the prince doesn’t remember it?
He wanted to ask, but didn't dare to.
Baili Moqing remained silent the entire time. He didn't get in the car or on the horse. He just walked and looked around, as if he was thinking about something.
Xizhu didn't dare to say anything more, so he could only shut up and follow.
Suddenly he asked, "Who has she been in contact with recently?"
Xizhu was stunned and didn't understand who that "she" was for a moment.
The disappeared Shu He? Or the Liu Ruxin from earlier?
"Who else has been to the Precious Medicine Pavilion recently? Please give me a detailed list tonight."
Xizhu was stunned for a moment, then agreed.
Didn't the prince say that Liu Ruxin wasn't Shu He? Why is he still so concerned?
Or... "Your Majesty, do you think Liu Ruxin is Miss Shu?"
Otherwise, why would he rescue Shu Yuanbao in the middle of the night and go to the Shu family to interrogate him about the flower banquet that year?
Before he could feel proud of his own cleverness, he heard Baili Moqing say calmly, "She is not."
"no?"
"If not, then why go to the Shu family...?"
Baili Moqing interrupted him, "She went there for Zhang Zhirou."
Xizhu stopped where he was, his mind a little confused.
For Zhang Zhirou?
Could it be that Zhang Zhirou wanted to know what happened back then, so Liu Ruxin helped her come to the Shu family?
Why does this statement feel a bit far-fetched?
Forget it, if the prince says it’s not, then it’s not.
When he looked up again, Baili Moqing had already walked away.
Xi Zhu quickly caught up, "Oh, Your Highness, there's one more thing. Jiang Dongping is on his way back to the capital."
On the third floor of the Precious Medicine Pavilion, Shu He was pounding medicine, but her thoughts had already drifted away. When Shen Chuan came, she didn't notice anyone approaching at all.
"If I were a killer, you'd be dead!"
He was a little dissatisfied. She was not usually such a careless person. Why did she lose her mind after seeing Baili Moqing?
Shu He stopped what he was doing and looked at the person who came, with dissatisfaction between his brows.
"Didn't you say you had people in Kyoto?"
"Didn't you say you would be able to send me the latest news?"
Shen Chuan looked slightly embarrassed and unsure, "What do you mean?"
She threw the pestle in her hand aside and said, "Didn't you say that you were keeping an eye on Baili Moqing's people? Then why did he follow Shu Yuanbao to the Shu family as soon as he came out?"
"I gave you so much money, so much medicine, and kept those spies, but you can't even do this?"
Shen Chuan stepped forward, a guilty look on her face, "I knew you wanted to say this."
Here I am, explaining it specially.
"I did find that Baili Moqing's men were watching the government jail. When Shu Yuanbao came out, my people and Xizhu's people were the first to notice it. It's just that they were a step too late when they came back to report to me."
"I also rushed to the Shu family to warn you, but I was almost discovered by Baili Moqing on the way!"
"You know, after you healed that guy, his skills returned to their peak, and he even showed signs of a breakthrough. I didn't dare get too close..."
That's why she was caught by Baili Moqing without her knowledge.
"But isn't this great? He heard what he was supposed to hear, his misunderstanding of you has been resolved, and he even promised not to search for you anymore. From now on, you can do whatever you want!"
Act freely?
She couldn't help but sneer.
Humph, I guess every step from now on will be under his surveillance.
Seeing that she was still angry, he felt a little aggrieved. "You can't blame me for this, okay? This is the capital of Tianqi! If I could really go to heaven and into the earth, why would I still be hiding here? I would have wiped out the Tianqi royal family long ago!"
They were all a bunch of black-hearted people anyway. If that were the case, he wouldn't have to go through the "war" she hated to achieve his goal.
"Besides, if you didn't want to be discovered by him, why did you let Zhang Zhirou reveal her true identity?" It's not that he couldn't let her disguise herself as well.
Shu He stared at him, a hint of sarcasm on his face. "When I said I'd leave the matter of the Rejuvenating Pill to you, what did you say?"
"You said you are a foreign prince with a special status, and because of your close relationship with Shen Chuan, you can't do anything risky!"
"It's because you refused that I became self-reliant!"
The candlelight was slightly cold, swaying on her face, only revealing a bit of her indifference.
"Bai Li Moyan knew everything about the peace talks at the Aid North Camp, but why is it that he has been back in Beijing for so many days and there is still no news about Yi'er and me?"
"Isn't it because he thinks Yi'er is Baili Moqing's weakness, so he wants to control this matter himself?"
"If I didn't let Ah Rou reveal her true form and lure him over, who could have given him the Resurrection Pill without anyone noticing?"
At this point, she snorted coldly, "Don't forget, you are also the beneficiary of this matter! How dare you come here and question me about my method?"
"You didn't deliver today's news in time, nor did you deliver the news of Baili Moqing's return to the capital in time... Are you sure you're here to cooperate with me? Why do I feel like you're here to take advantage of me?"
He touched his nose guiltily, a flattering yet apologetic smile on his face, "I helped too, okay? If it weren't for me, would your scene have been so exciting? Would Baili Moyan have gone so crazy? Now I've even dragged Old Four into this!"
"Kyoto is in chaos now, so there will be fewer people watching you, right?"
Shu He glanced at him coldly and walked past him. "You plotted against the Fourth Prince, wasn't it to get Princess Zi Yan to marry the Eighth Prince?"
It's like he's doing it all for her, which is really annoying!
Shen Chuan's face froze, and emotions raced in her eyes.
"You are so smart that it's scary!"
She didn't know beforehand that he was plotting against the fourth brother, but after just a few days, she had actually guessed his purpose!
Shu He did not feel that his words were a compliment, but only felt angry that she had been used and deceived.
"Shen Lanzhi, I agreed to cooperate with you in order to repay Shen Chuan for helping me escape half a year ago, but that doesn't mean I can let you use me!"
"I hope this is the last time! If you do something like this behind my back again, our cooperation will end here!"
Shen Chuan's face was a little stiff. It was the first time she was treated so cruelly, but she couldn't refute.
But he really wanted to help her. He was just doing his own thing while he was at it.
I didn't expect her reaction to be so intense.
"Oh, don't be so heartless. At most, I promise that next time I have any plans, I will tell you in advance. Is that okay?"
Shu He rolled his eyes at him, then sat back in his chair and began to pound the medicine carefully.
"The Shu family seems to be packing up. Do you want me to help you deal with them?"
Hearing this, she raised her eyes slightly, but there was no surprise in them. After a moment, she said, "Don't worry about it. Someone will take care of them."
