The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
Chapters 271. Investigating Xia Xi Lin
Pei Zhang Xi was inside his study inside the residence of King Rui. After Pei Zhang Xi was appointed Crown Prince and stayed in the palace, the residence of King Rui had switched functions to become the military headquarters under Pei Zhang Xi. So Pei Zhang Xi would still go there at least twice a week. Pei Zhang Xi preferred to work on an important matter in this place because of the obvious safety concerns being maintained.
Today he gathered all his men to discuss the plans they would have to do to overcome Pei Zhong Min's blurring problem.
"Is there any news from that guy?" Pei Zhang Xi asked Mo Ting.
"His Majesty, this morning the man sent a letter." As she spoke, Mo Ting took out a letter that was a small scroll and handed the letter to Pei Zhang Xi. It is easy to guess if the letter was sent using birds as intermediaries.
Pei Zhang Xi immediately opened the letter and read it. After he read the letter, his hands clenched tightly. "They can't wait to wait." He muttered in a low voice. However since the room was very quiet from the start, Pei Zhang Xi's low voice even sounded clearly.
All the people gathered inside the room were all Pei Zhang Xi's confidants who had followed him long ago. So without Pei Zhang Xi having to explain in detail, they all understood what he meant. Everyone immediately had a very clear change in facial expression.
"If they're so impatient to wait for their deaths, we can't let them down." Pei Zhang Xi said in a frightening voice as he squeezed the letter in his hand.
"General Yuan, prepare your men to welcome them immediately."
"Your Majesty." General Yuan immediately acknowledged the order and came out of the room to carry out the order that Pei Zhang Xi had given for him.
"Mo Ting, pass on my message to that person, have him do whatever they want to do." Pei Zhang Xi turned his head and changed to give orders to Mo Ting.
"Your Majesty." Mo Ting also left immediately after acknowledging the order.
"Mo Han, did you get what I asked you to investigate earlier?"
Pei Zhang Xi found out that Lu Jing Yu brought home a pair of mothers and children when he returned to the palace this afternoon and immediately asked Mo Han to check on the identity of this person. As a person who had lived inside the palace since childhood, he had seen all sorts of different tricks every day, Pei Zhang Xi had a higher alertness than ordinary people. He realized that when the higher the status level of a person, the more lonely the person will be.
The simple parable is that when a person is just an ordinary person who does not have any status in society, they can live comfortably without worrying about anyone wanting his status. In the eyes of this kind of person, what they thought the most about was how they could continue to live.
Conversely, when a person has a high status, he will feel worried at all times even though because many people may be around him, there is no guarantee that they treat him sincerely. People like this tend to have suspicions about someone. Feeling afraid if people who are even used to being around it turn out to have bad intentions on them.
But it's not all his fault either. He just wanted to make sure of his safety. Especially when it comes to safety for those they care about and care about.
"The woman that His Highness the Crown Princess brought home was all clean, Your Majesty. He was just an ordinary citizen who had no relations with any party at least in the past month." Mo Han reported the results of his investigation. After all to obtain information regarding ordinary citizens like Xia Xi Lin was a very easy matter for Mo Han.
"Hm. Then let him stay. Yu'er must have had her own reasons." Pei Zhang Xi nodded in understanding.
Xia Xi Lin was taken to a room that was on the side of the eastern palace. Each room was usually filled with two to three maids, but since Xia Xi Lin had to stay and take care of her daughter as well, she was given one room by herself. Along the way to the room, Shi Ma had told him everything he needed to pay attention to during his stay in the eastern palace. Shi Ma also informed her that there were some places she could not enter carelessly such as Pei Zhang Xi's study room and the master room. In addition, some important places also cannot be entered by the waiter just like that. Xia Xi Lin immediately understood and remembered it properly.
"Well Miss Shi." Xia Xi Lin nodded.
"Goodoo. I still have work to do. For today rest first in this room. For all the daily supplies will be delivered by the waiter."
"Thank you very much. I promise I will remember all this goodness well."
"That's great."
"Miss Shi, can I ask you one thing?" Xia Xi Lin hooked her hand as she asked. He really could not help his curiosity anymore.
"About what?" Shi Ma nodded and asked. Lu Jing Yu told him to treat this woman he had brought home well. So he did not dare to ignore it.
"Can I find out who the good lady was?" Xia Xi Lin asked timidly. They had met for quite a while and even shared the same train along the way. Her rescue lady already knew her name, but she didn't know anything about her savior, it was a shame...
"She is Her Highness the Crown Princess of the Shao Empire. Lu Jing Yu's." Shi Ma replied firmly. He had no intention of hiding Lu Jing Yu's identity. After all if Xia Xi Lin found out about it was also not a bad thing and was even better. That way, this woman can position herself properly.
Xia Xi Lin had already guessed that Lu Jing Yu's identity was not low, but she did not expect that her savior was the Crown Princess of Shao Empire so she was still so shocked to hear Shi Ma's reply.
"Now you know. His Majesty is indeed a very good person who is always willing to extend his hand to help others. So please appreciate what His Majesty did by never disappointing and betraying him." Shi Ma said seriously. Shi Ma had not served Lu Jing Yu long enough, he had only served Lu Jing Yu while in the eastern palace, instead, but in just a short while he already knew what kind of person Lu Jing Yu was and he was very grateful to be able to get the chance to serve Lu Jing Yu.
"Yes. I promise I will never disappoint let alone betray His Majesty." Xia Xi Lin nodded without hesitation. After all he had solidified his resolve when he followed Lu Jing Yu for the first time.
