Reborn as a paranoid regent's sweetheart

Chapter 54 The Mysterious Man

Chapter 54 The Mysterious Man

Qin Zhao said he knew.

Now Shen Xi wished that Ye could come earlier so that she could see Xiao Che and hand over the things to her.

She wasn't sure at first, but now that she has this sachet, she already has certainty in her heart.

Shen Xi once again felt the feeling of living like a year.

After finally waiting for Xiao Che to arrive, Shen Xi hastily opened the box.

Xiao Che was also a little surprised: "You haven't slept yet?"

On weekdays, Shen Xi would go to bed early, and usually when he came, Shen Xi would have been lying on the bed for a long time.

"Isn't this waiting for the lord?" Shen Xi happily took out the sachet and showed it in front of Xiao Che: "This is the peace talisman that Shuqin begged for me, I have already asked carefully, There really is a problem."

Xiao Che took the sachet, opened it, and saw that besides the spices, there was also a yellow talisman folded into a triangle, with strange patterns painted on it with cinnabar.

"There is something wrong with the incense in this sachet. I will take this sachet away tomorrow and replace it with a new one for you." Xiao Che frowned at just one glance.

Shen Xi didn't expect Xiao Che to understand these things, so she agreed, "Okay."

"Tell me first, how Shuqin told you."

Now Shuqin has naturally prepared an extra portion of dinner, and Xiao Che washes up after using it before undressing and going to bed.

Shen Xi had already gone to bed and leaned against the inner side of the bed. Hearing what he said, she told Xiao Che exactly what Shuqin had said to her, and then commented very seriously: "I just said that Jiang Yu is a fine work. If he hadn't spoken to Tuanan Temple in advance, how could the host give me such a problematic sachet?"

Xiao Che said helplessly: "Everything must be based on evidence. What if the host has no good intentions?"

Shen Xi was stabbed by his words, she can't tell the things of her previous life, can she?
However, it is indeed the same as what Xiao Che said, and it is indeed a bit far-fetched to say that he is meticulous based on this point alone.

"Then how did he guess that Shuqin was asking for a peace talisman?"

"People who go to the temple, what can they ask for? It's nothing more than these things. If the abbot grasps these points, no matter what he says, he can't go wrong." Xiao Che paused, and couldn't help it. Said: "And they always like to hide half and say half. This kind of hazy thing has always been the most difficult to guess. You will substitute in what is right or wrong. If he happens to be right, you will say that they work, say No, then you know he is a liar, maybe he didn't know anything at first, but you just think he knows, especially for something like this that already has some 'word of mouth', even if something goes wrong, you just You'll feel like it's your fault."

Shen Xi thought for a while, and it seemed that it was really the case. She couldn't help but muttered in frustration: "In short, I just don't like him."

It was the first time for Xiao Che to see her with such a young daughter's attitude, and he felt funny in his heart: "Since you don't like him, you can ignore him. I will investigate this matter. If he is really careful, don't worry, don't worry about it." If you say I am the king, your brother will not let him go."

Shen Li is also a person who can't tolerate sand in his eyes. If he knows that he has been cheated for so many years, it is estimated that there will be no scum left by him.

"En." Shen Xi nodded: "By the way, I don't know how the prince solved the lunch?"

She was curious about it.

"This king has his own solution." Xiao Che said.

"Oh." Shen Xi pouted, she didn't say anything, why pretend to be mysterious.

At night, Shuqin tossed and couldn't sleep, Shen Xi's words and Qin Zhao's attitude kept rolling in her mind, and then she thought of the gentle Jiang Yu. To be honest, she really didn't think there was anything wrong with Jiang Yu. The question is, she really doesn't understand why the empress resists him so much.

But as the maidservant of the empress, if the empress doesn't like him, naturally she can't get too close to him.

Shuqin was a little depressed.

Her carriage is obviously not as good as Shen Xi's carriage, Shen Xi's carriage can make her lie down over and over, but her carriage can barely accommodate her.

Thinking about the day's affairs, Shuqin felt really uncomfortable, so she simply got out of the carriage and let the wind blow outside to calm down.

Now that they have left the border of the northwest, they will be able to reach Xunyang in two or three days. They can almost be said to be rushing day and night, and the guards are always riding on tall horses before dawn.

Think about it, too. After all, the body will rot. Although it is cold now, it can't last for a long time.

They always want to bring the prince back to the capital safely.

"Miss Shuqin, why are you still up so late?"

The troops assigned to them by Zhao Wuwei will go back when they arrive in Xunyang, that is to say, Jiang Yu and Qin Zhao are basically responsible for the next section of the road.

Shuqin was thinking about something when his train of thought was suddenly interrupted. Following the source of the voice, it was Jiang Yu who came.

Shuqin thought of what Shen Xi said, and subconsciously took a step back: "Master Jiang, men and women are different."

Jiang Yu couldn't figure it out: "Yesterday..."

Shuqin took the conversation away: "Yesterday, my maidservant usurped me, so please don't be angry with Mr. Wangjiang. Your Majesty has already severely criticized this maidservant, and this maidservant knows his mistake."

"I didn't want to blame you. I also brought up what happened yesterday. If I want to apologize, I should apologize to you." Jiang Yu said.

But Shuqin shook her head: "Lord Jiang, I was at fault for this matter. General Qin must have given you the money for the sachet. If there is anything to do in the future, the empress will order it."

The word "fornication" is the most taboo in the palace, and the Regent's Palace is also the same, and their behavior... If they talk about it in Dali, they can really be punished and beheaded.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yu said no more: "I understand."

Shuqin also turned her head back to the carriage, but this night, she didn't sleep all night.

When I went to serve Shen Xi the next day, Shuqin specifically asked Shen Xi: "Ma'am, the face you raised is him..."

Shen Xi knew that she should give Shuqin an explanation, but she didn't know what to say about Xiao Che's whereabouts, so she pondered for a while: "He, he doesn't need to be by my side if he's fine, I just need him to relieve his fatigue at night. .”

It is not without boldness to say this.

"..." This is the first time Shuqin knows that her mother is... so... bold?
"But the servants don't seem to have seen him during the day."

"Yeah." Shen Xi nodded: "You can't let him wander around in a fair manner, can you?"

It makes sense.

There was no change yesterday, either the abbot lied to himself, the safety talisman was useless at all, or it was not a ghost, but a human being.

Seeing it now, it might really be a human being, who was in the team during the day, so he didn't notice it.

Shuqin couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and then felt that she was thinking too much, thinking of the ghost and god in the open sky.

Naturally, it was impossible for Xiao Che to investigate the matter of the sachet by himself. If he had to do everything himself, then what was he using his soldiers for?

Throw the sachet to his accompanying subordinates, they naturally know how to deal with this matter, then Xiao Che no longer need to worry about these matters.

When Xiao Che returned to the carriage at night, he casually threw a sachet to Shen Xi: "This is a fake sachet, just wear it on your body."
