C73 Do you miss my arms so much? (2/2)
After Huai Jin finished speaking, she jumped out of the carriage.
When he thought about the smell that would always be on Huai Jin's body, Yuwen Fei frowned, ”You're not allowed to go.”
Huai Jin ignored him and directly walked toward the Kangshou Lane.
Yuwen Fei also jumped off the car. He originally wanted to stop her, but he had only taken a few steps before he turned back and walked over.
Looking at the busy figures of Yun Jing and Ran Mei, Huai Jin suddenly asked: ”Where did the mouse come from?”
Ran Mei looked around, and replied: ”Maybe he was chased out from some restaurant.”
Restaurant? Huai Jin raised her eyes and looked at the place where their carriage was parked. Behind them was the end of the Kangshou Lane, and after a few more turns, she would reach the Chang Liu Street.
”Just as I passed by, there were people making a ruckus in front of the restaurant, so Yun Jing took a detour and came over from the back.”
Ran Mei saw that Huai Jin was looking at her surroundings with some suspicion, and explained.
Huai Jin nodded, she did not expect that Kangshou Lane and Chang Liu Street, who were originally separated by such a great distance, would actually be so close.
After figuring out the origin of the mouse, Huai Jin could only concede her bad luck, and turned to walk in the direction of the Kangshou Lane, but suddenly, something flashed past her head, she anxiously turned around and pulled on Yuwen Fei's sleeves, and asked anxiously: ”When we went to look for Su Geying's corpse, were there any rats?”
Yuwen Fei lowered his head to think. At that time, because he had been focusing all his attention on the snow candies, he did not have a deep impression of the rat.
”The Cloud Locking Pavilion is built on top of the stage, where did the mouse come from?”
Huai Jin's words woke Yuwen Fei up. The palace maid had said that he had placed the hairpin into the air vent, but there was still some distance between the main hall and Su Geying's place of detention. If the palace maid was in a rush and did not throw the hairpin away, then the hairpin would definitely not reach Su Geying's hands.
Now it seemed that the rat was meant to pass the hairpin.
”But would the rat be so obedient?” Huai Jin tried hard to imagine the scene at that time, ”At that time, the empress dowager, Yang mama and the others were all present. There was a mouse in the arms of a palace maid, how could they not notice it?
”Someone will …” Yuwen Fei suddenly slapped the fan on his hand and winked at Huai Jin.
If the suspicions he had towards Pu Xin before was only an uncertain intuition, then he could now be certain. Before this, he had always been wondering why Pu Xin would specially come to the streets to conduct a road sacrifice after Ping Yang's death, and also why he had helped him to keep Lan Ling alive time and time again.
Now it seemed like the thing that he wanted had already been obtained by Pu Xin, so his royal father had still trusted the wrong person.
After figuring it out, Yuwen Fei called Yun Jing, and directly dismounted from the horse carriage. The two of them rode one on one, and just as they were about to leave, since they were late, they still had a bargaining chip in hand, right?
Yuwen Fei sat on the horse and gave Huai Jin a coquettish look, saying ”Thank you!” Then he walked away.
The horse's hooves flew in the air and raised a cloud of dust, Huai Jin anxiously raised her sleeves to block the dust that was blowing towards him.
By the time she put down her sleeves, they were nowhere to be seen.
Huai Jin looked in the direction where the two left and stomped her feet fiercely.
