Demon Doctor Wild Concubine
Shen Yunxi stood up, "Last night, a cat ran into my room from who-knows-where and kept me awake." She said as she walked to the washbasin to freshen up.
"A cat? I didn't see one." Shuang'er furrowed her brow and said. Suddenly, she changed the subject, as if what she had just said was merely a mutter to herself. She said: "Right, I just saw Wang Ye outside. Miss, has Wang Ye come looking for you?"
Shen Yunxi's hand paused in mid-air as she washed her face, thinking to herself: "Just now? Could it be that Feng Qingchen just left?"
She thought he was just pretending and would leave after she fell asleep, but unexpectedly he stayed until dawn.
After all, that chair was not a place to sleep, and he thought that the majestic Rui Wangye would never stoop to sleeping on such a small chair. But then he thought again, as a general of Tianqi country, he had been on military expeditions, eating in the wind and sleeping in the dew, which was much more difficult than this, so it was not hard to understand.
Shen Yunxi was lost in thought when she heard a suspicious voice behind her, "Huh, there's still residual warmth. Miss, did you sleep on this chair last night?"
Shen Yunxi slightly turned her body and saw Shuang'er holding the quilt, inquiringly looking at her. However, when her eyes glanced at the messy quilt on the bed, she frowned again. Suddenly, as if thinking of something, her eyes widened, and she asked: "Miss, didn't the king stay overnight in Suishou Xuan last night?"
"You ask so many questions, are you very free?" Shen Yunxi asked back in a light tone, obviously not wanting to spend more words on this topic. Then, she turned around and continued washing up.
The twins mischievously stuck out their tongues and said, "We're just curious."
"It seems you're really free." Shen Yunxi wiped his face and turned to say, "After lunch, go with Qiao Yu to invite Yu Die and Jing Xian to Shu Yu Xuan for questioning."
As soon as they heard that they were going to call the two women in for questioning, Shuang'er excitedly asked: "Miss, could it be that one of them was the one who killed Ning Meng?"
"It's just a case, let's ask." After a pause, he said: "Shuang Er, you go out and prepare breakfast first, I'll change my clothes and come out."
Shuang'er nodded in agreement and turned to walk out the door, but just as she reached the entrance, she stopped again, turned around, and smiled brightly at Shen Yunxi, asking: "Miss, when I came in earlier, you said a cat had come into your room last night. Was this 'cat' referring to Prince Wang?"
Shen Yunxi gazed at Shuang'er with a hint of a smile, her eyes gleaming with a hint of intrigue. "Shuang'er," she said, "I think it's time for me to find you a good husband and get you married off."
The twins immediately shook their heads and said, "Miss, don't say anything, I won't ask. I'll go prepare breakfast for you right away." After that, they disappeared in a flash.
Shen Yunxi smiled triumphantly at this, and this move was indeed effective.
Shuang'er and Qiao Yu left Shuiyu Xuan after breakfast, following Shen Yuncreek's instructions, to invite Yu Die and Jing Xian over for questioning.
Shen Yunxi sat in the hall, her clear eyes staring intently at the inspection report in her hand, her gaze deep.
Through yesterday's investigation and analysis of this report, Yu Die and Jing Xian are the two people with the most motive, but as for whether there are other suspects or not, we'll have to wait until after questioning, perhaps there will be unexpected results.
About half a short while later, Shuang'er and Qiao Yu returned, but there was no one behind them. Shuang'er stormed into the main hall and said to Shen Yunxi: "Miss, I'm so angry! They are really too arrogant!"
Shen Yunxi heard this and put down the inspection report, looked up and asked: "What's going on?" However, this question was not directed at Shuang'er, but rather at Qiao Yu beside her.
In Shen Yunxi's opinion, Shuang'er is too impatient and too biased towards her. Sometimes, without the calmness brought by Cui Yu, an outsider, she would ask Cui Yu instead of Shuang'er.
Then, Chou Yu said steadily: "I and Shuang Er first went to Jing Ya Garden, but before we could explain our intention, we were intercepted by Jing Xian's personal maid, who said that her mistress was still sleeping and didn't like to be disturbed. So she drove us out of Jing Ya Garden. Then we went to Ying Yue Pavilion to find Yu Die, but we were told that Yu Die was injured yesterday and needed rest, it wasn't suitable for her to see people. We had no choice but to return first."
"Miss, you say they are overbearing, completely not putting you in their eyes." Just as Cuiyu finished speaking, Shuang'er said with dissatisfaction, her words full of indignation.
Shen Yunxi listened and only slightly pursed his lips, "One dislikes disturbance, the other is not suitable to be seen by people, each has their own reasons. In that case, I can only take a trip myself."
As she spoke, Shen Yunxi stood up and ordered Cuiyu in a low voice: "Cuiyu, lead the way for me."
"Yes, Princess." Chui Yu responded and quickly followed Shen Yunxi. Shuang Er stomped her foot in dissatisfaction behind them before hurrying to catch up.
Perhaps because of the news that Feng Qingchen stayed overnight at Su Yu's place, it spread like wildfire within the Wang Fu, and Shen Yunxi received various forms of courtesy along the way. However, some people had a hint of fear in their eyes when they saw her.
At this, Shen Yunxi couldn't help but sneer in her heart, thinking that they must be the ones who were slandering her behind her back yesterday morning, saying she wouldn't gain favor. At this moment, hearing that Feng Qingchen was staying overnight with Feng Qingchen and might have gained favor, she couldn't help but feel some fear in her heart, fearing that her master would seek revenge and pursue their guilt.
However, they have such a performance, and Yu Die and Jing Xian both avoid her in this way. If it's not that they have a guilty conscience, then it must be that they are unwilling to accept it.
Before long, Shen Yunxi and the other two arrived at Jingya Garden. The maid who was sweeping the floor in the hall saw them and immediately put down her broom and walked over with big strides, saying in a bad tone: "Didn't I just say that my mistress is still sleeping? Why have you come again?! Hurry up and leave!" As she spoke, she used her broom to shoo them away.
Shen Yunxi stood still, her eyes cold and congealed on her, a faint smile rising to the corner of her lips, but with a chilling intent that sent shivers down one's spine.
That girl saw it and couldn't help but take a cold breath, the motion of her hands driving them away also stopped momentarily.
Qiao Yu stepped forward and shouted at the maid, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and call your mistress to get up. The princess has arrived, how dare she still be sleeping in her room?"
As soon as she heard the two words 'princess', she was so frightened that she fell to the ground with a thud, and her broom fell down. She knocked her head on the ground while speaking in a panic: "Slave is dead, slave is dead! Slave did not know that the princess had arrived, please punish the slave!"
Shen Yunxi looked down at her with a slanted glance, humming softly, saying: "Ten thousand deaths?... No rush. It's not too late to punish you and your mistress together later! However, you're quite good at bullying the weak and fearing the strong."
What she said was soft in tone and color, but it did not affect the deterrent force brought by this word at all.
As soon as these words came out, the maid's body trembled three times as she knelt on the ground, and was so frightened that she couldn't say a word.
"Still not going to call your young lady out?" After saying that, he stepped forward and walked towards the main hall.
"Yes, yes, yes! I'll go right away!"
That girl responded with a trembling voice, then almost rolled and crawled inside. Shuang'er and Cui Yu turned their heads to see her, then laughed unceremoniously.
