Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Shao Shuting truly treated them as friends. Moreover, they had saved Shao Shuting before. It was impossible for Shao Zhongxi not to consider this relationship and cause them trouble here.

However, Shao Zhongxi was probably waiting for something to happen as well…

Once it passes, he would probably leave.

Jiang Yue naturally knew that Shao Shuting sincerely treated her and Xue Yan as friends, but she did not know if Shao Shuting and Shao Zhongxi had a deep relationship. Since Xue Yan had said so, the two of them must have had a deep relationship in their previous life. Then what was Shao Zhongxi sitting there waiting for? For now, she concluded that it should not bring any trouble to their family, so she let it go.

She focused on peeling her peanuts.

These were the peanuts just harvested from the field this year. Hongyan had specially fried them for her and Xue Yan.

In the innermost corner of the hall, Qi Yin saw that Jiang Yue was no longer looking at them and was focused on peeling peanuts. She hesitated for a moment and couldn’t help but ask her master, “Master, Xue Yan and Jiang Yue are here. Should we invite them over?”

Shao Zhongxi was still drinking his tea coldly, not even looking at her.

Qi Yin understood that this meant that they didn’t need to be invited.

Her master must have felt that waiting at Quanping Inn was pointless. He had to come out and take a look, so he came here to wait.

When the Ji family and Consort Yi found out that her master was here and sent spies to keep an eye on him, her master would no longer have to wait and would have to leave this town.

When the time came, it would naturally be bait, and the Ji family and Consort Yi’s attention would follow suit.

Chang Yu was naturally very safe.

It had already been four days. Presumably, the Ji family and Consort Yi should know by now.

As stated, at this moment, the Ji family in the capital city already knew.

Not only had they received news that the prince had secretly gone to Xinyuan County, but they had also received news that the spy who had been keeping an eye on the prince had also died before they could inform Consort Yi. The Ji family’s thoughts immediately started running wild.

It seemed that Emperor Shu was really in Xinyuan County.

Therefore, not only did Shao Shuting go to this town previously, but Shao Zhongxi also went there secretly now.

With this thought in mind, the Ji family immediately sent a message into the palace and secretly told Consort Yi this new piece of information.

Consort Yi was in her bedroom. When she heard this, she immediately stood up.

“He must be in Xinyuan! Even if he isn’t, we have to keep an eye on Shao Zhongxi! Shao Zhongxi claimed to be ill at the end of June. He had not attended court and had even reported that he did not know when he would recover.

“Now, he’s secretly gone to Xinyuan. He must have received specific news about Emperor Shu and was specifically looking for him! That’s why he said he was sick!

“The dates match up. Shao Shuting was also recuperating at the end of June in Locust Village. He couldn’t continue searching, so Shao Zhongxi came personally to finish what needs to be done.”

The more Consort Yi spoke, the more she felt that she was right.

“But he was afraid that our people would still go to Xinyuan County, so he first went to the opposite place of Xinyuan County, Changyu!

“He deliberately lured our people over and left our people at Changyu, making us think that Emperor Shu was at Changyu. He thought that he had left all of them at Changyu, so he secretly came to Xinyuan. He didn’t expect that one of our spies was following him, so he immediately killed him! No wonder he suddenly went to Changyu secretly, claiming to be ill.

“At that time, I even felt it was strange. Shao Shuting clearly appeared at Xinyuan’s place secretly, so he should have gone to Xinyuan as well.. So that’s how it is!”
