The concubine is soft and delicate, making her the treacherous minister's white moonlight

Chapter 216 Only Shen Weiyuan knows

On the way back, Lin Mowan was a little absent-minded. Baiyun rode the horse and took the initiative to ride parallel to the carriage. She raised her hand and knocked on the window with the scabbard in her hand, "Hey, are you unhappy?"

Lin Mowan, who was still in a daze, came back to her senses instantly after being knocked by her. She glanced at the fluttering curtains on the window, was silent for a moment, and said in a flat tone: "No."

Bai Yun didn't believe it. She tilted her head and looked at the fluttering curtains. She was silent for a while, and suddenly, she shouted, "Stop the car."

The carriage slowly stopped. Not only Lin Mowan, but also Lin Tianxiao was puzzled: "Why did it stop suddenly?"

Bai Yun glanced at him and smiled, "Take a break. Why are you in such a hurry?"

As she spoke, she raised her hand and knocked on the car window with her scabbard, saying, "There is an inn ahead. Let's get off and rest."

Lin Mowan didn't reply. In fact, they had just walked a short distance and there was no need to rest. And Bai Yun's action was probably not just for rest.

After a little hesitation and when there was no more noise outside, Lin Mowan got up and got off the carriage.

This is a quiet town. There are few people on the small streets and not many people in the inn.

Bai Yun had already entered the inn and negotiated with the boss. Lin Tianxiao leaned on the carriage, glanced inside the inn, and asked Lin Mowan: "Are you going?"

"..."

Lin Mowan didn't say anything, but sighed softly while thinking and walked over.

Seeing her come in, Bai Yun took the initiative to pour her some tea and muttered, "That's right, relax, don't be so anxious."

As she spoke, she drank tea and handed the cup to Lin Mowan. Lin Mowan did not refuse and sat opposite her without saying a word.

For a long while, Lin Mowan stared at the teacup in her hand in a daze. After a moment of silence, she said, "Baiyun, can I ask you a question?"

Bai Yun nodded without hesitation, "Well, I'll tell you everything I know."

Bai Yun was waiting for her to say this. Some things really cannot be kept to oneself. No matter whether speaking out can solve the problem or not, at least one will feel better.

Lin Mowan thought for a moment before asking, "How much do you know about Hua Rong?"

Hearing this, Bai Yun paused holding the cup, thought for a moment, frowned, and said, "To be honest, I probably don't know much more than the outside world."

"As for that person, I don't know where she came from. I heard from Wei Lin that she was picked up by Shen Weiyuan. Only Shen Weiyuan knows her past life experience."

"From my memory, Shen Weiyuan seemed to really like her, but we never met. Unfortunately, not long after, we heard that he contracted an illness and died. After that, we never heard anyone mention him again."

Hearing this, Lin Mowan couldn't help but frowned, "Died of an illness? What illness? Where is he buried?"

Seeing how concerned she was, Bai Yun looked at her with a puzzled look, but he still explained first: "Shen Weiyuan didn't say it, but girls like this generally don't have a very good ending. The worst that can happen is that they are carried to a mass grave and thrown away."

"However, Shen Weiyuan seems to be very concerned about her. He might even build a tomb for her or something."

As she spoke, her tone paused, and she looked at Lin Mowan with a complicated look, and then she continued: "But seriously, she has been dead for so long, she can't come back to life, so there's no need to care so much." "..." Lin Mowan was silent, and she wanted to say something several times, but in the end she couldn't explain it. She couldn't tell Bai Yun that she suspected she might be the Hua Rong who was declared dead.

Anyone who heard this would think that Lin Mowan was crazy, and even she herself felt like laughing.

She was really thinking about it, and Bai Yun reminded her, "But I think you should never ask Shen Weiyuan about this matter in person. He is a stubborn person, and it would be more trouble than gain if we quarrel over this matter."

Listening to Bai Yun's advice, Lin Mowan remained silent. Of course, she would not ask Shen Weiyuan, as she was not 100% sure of her identity.

If her guess was right, then it might not be a big deal that she asked, but what if she was wrong? What if all this was just her wishful thinking?

Then from now on, they will probably never see each other again.

After a long while, under Bai Yun's gaze, Lin Mowan nodded and replied symbolically: "I know."

Seeing this, Bai Yun breathed a sigh of relief and nodded as if to say, "This child is teachable."

After that, the two of them were silent. After a short rest, the team continued to head back towards the city.

Nothing went wrong along the way, but Lin Mowan suddenly remembered that she didn't have the courage to ask Shen Weiyuan directly, so what about Shen Junchi?

Thinking of this stern yet elegant man, Lin Mowan's mind flashed back to his warning to her at Wisteria Garden.

Looking back at those words now, perhaps besides being dissatisfied with her family, there may be other reasons. Even if he doesn't know everything, he must be aware of it.

But should I ask him?
She was somewhat resistant to this question. Shen Junchi didn't like her, just as she felt the same way about Shen Junchi. She couldn't describe the feeling, but she just felt inexplicably uncomfortable when she saw her.

After the carriage entered the city, Bai Yun sent her back to the mansion before leaving.

After coming back, Lin Mowan was a little absent-minded and didn't even hear Madam Lin calling her from behind. It was not until Madam Lin trotted up to her and patted her on the shoulder that she came to her senses.

When she looked up, Mrs. Lin was already in front of her. She looked her up and down with a worried look on her face: "What's wrong with you, child? You look absent-minded."

As she spoke, she even raised her hand and touched Lin Mowan's forehead. Lin Mowan did not resist, but just stared at her blankly. It took her a long time to react and she called out, "Aunt."

"Yeah." Madam Lin answered readily, and the smile on her face piled up again, but when she looked at Lin Mowan, she seemed to think of something, so she suppressed her smile and asked with concern: "What's wrong? Why do you look so bad?"

Lin Mowan quickly came back to her senses, then shook her head and said, "I'm fine." Anyway, telling them about this would only add to their troubles, so it would be better not to say anything.

But Mrs. Lin was obviously not reassured. She insisted on asking a doctor to come and see her. She refused in every possible way. After thinking carefully, she asked her: "Aunt, do you know where else I can see Master Shen besides the current military camp?"

Mrs. Lin looked cold, as if she didn't understand why she asked such a question. Even if she wanted to see someone, shouldn't she see Shen Weiyuan? What was the point of seeing Shen Junchi?
She was suspicious, but still tried to think about it and answered, "Yes, there is. These days, the two brothers of the Shen family have been busy recruiting soldiers and horses, and trying to find allies as much as possible. As far as I know, they will host a banquet for allies at the hunting ground in the suburbs the day after tomorrow. Your uncle will also go. If you are interested, I will ask him to bring you along."

Lin Mowan never expected that she would be able to meet Shen Junchi so easily, and her previous depression instantly disappeared.

Mrs. Lin was puzzled again: "That's not right. I heard from your uncle that you went out to meet a friend today. Did you meet him? Why did you come back so soon?"
