Broken mountains and rivers: Sushou restores the universe

Chapter 837 Different opinions
Hearing what Shen Muyu said, Xiao Ji felt hesitant. Is there anything else he can't know about Shen Muyu?
Even though he was so puzzled, Xiao Ji could only bow his hands in a yes, then turned and left.

After Xiao Ji left, Shen Muyu looked around at the dozen or so trembling former Wei Palace attendants, and asked lightly: "Which hall of Wei Palace did you all serve before? Could it be in Princess Sakura Palace?" Are you serving here?"

There were more than a dozen people, men, women and children, they looked at each other in confusion, and answered confusedly about the people who served before, but none of them were the attendants of Qingyang Palace.

After Shen Muyu heard their answers, he was a little disappointed. He was silent for a moment, and said lightly: "On the eve of August 17, [-], when His Royal Highness Shou Wang was born, did Princess Ying ever leave the palace? Who of you knew?"

The dozen or so people all showed blank expressions. They gathered together in twos and threes and discussed in a low voice. Finally, a woman about 40 years old stood up, bowed down and replied respectfully: "Responding to Lord Shen's words, it was around the year you said that Princess Ying did sneak out of the palace in the autumn of one year. The servant remembers that there was a disturbance in the palace at that time, but Princess Ying was not found afterward. It took more than ten days for Princess Sakura to come back by herself."

At this time, another woman spoke up, recalling: "Yes, although Princess Ying often goes out of the palace secretly to play, but that time was the only time she went out for the longest time. I remember that year, it was..."

She stopped as she spoke, and timidly glanced at Shen Muyu.

Seeing this, Shen Muyu said lightly, "You just say it's okay, no matter what you say, I won't punish you."

Only then did the woman dare to continue, she bowed her head and said, "I remember that it seemed to be the year when you went to Hongcheng to ask for marriage. Not long after you left, Princess Ying also sneaked out of the palace."

Shen Muyu's eyes flashed a glint of bewilderment. The year he proposed to marry was the 17th year of Shouwang. When he left Hongcheng, it happened to be the eve of the Cloud and Mist Festival, so he made a stop before returning to China. Yunguo wants to experience the most lively Cloud and Mist Festival in Yunguo.

He was silent for a while, listening to the chatter of a dozen people, he had confirmed that the year when Wei Ying sneaked out of the palace was the eve of August 17th in the [-]th year of King Shouwang, so he continued to ask , said: "Then where did Princess Sakura go when she sneaked out of the palace?"

An old eunuch spoke first, and replied: "Responding to what Lord Shen said, no one knew where Princess Ying went when she left the palace, but when she came back, there were rumors in the palace that she went to Zhangdi. It was Mrs. Xiao who signaled her to go to visit relatives in the Xiao family. However, some people said that Mrs. Xiao lied for the sake of Princess Ying's reputation. They said that Princess Ying actually went abroad for fun, but there were different opinions on where she went. "

This person's answer was actually useless, so Shen Muyu turned his eyes away from him, and said to others: "How about you, do you know where Princess Ying went?"

The rest of the people discussed in a low voice, a few people mentioned other countries, and two or three people said that Princess Ying went to Yun Country, but they were not sure.

Shen Muyu quietly listened to the chattering responses of more than a dozen people, and finally an old court lady said with certainty: "Responding to Lord Shen's words, this servant remembered that Princess Sakura sneaked out of the palace that year. I went to the Yunwu Festival in Yunguo to play."

Shen Muyu's face moved slightly, and then asked: "Is that so, are you sure?"
