Chapter 544 Still unfinished
Three days later, Shen Shuyi was collecting information about Jiangnan officials that Jiang Li had investigated.
Let Qin Xin pass a message to Xie Jingchi, wanting to invite him to meet at the restaurant after the court was dismissed.
Of course, she said she was getting together because there were some things she couldn't find out, so she wanted to find Xie Jingchi to find out.
Shen Shuyi remembered that Xie Jingchi said that the Jiangnan case was currently lacking witnesses.
But after she sorted it out carefully, she still didn't know who would be worthy of being a witness.
She had never been to Jiangnan; it was very far away.
Therefore, it is really difficult to make a decision based solely on the information Jiang Li found.
Not long after the message was sent, Qin Xin came back and said, "Miss, thank you for agreeing to meet at the restaurant at 15:00."
"it is good."
Qin Xin paused, looked at Shen Shuyi and continued: "That's it..."
"what?"
"Lord Xie said that you haven't taken his pulse recently, and the medicinal food... is not to his liking. He is weak and may not remember anything." Qin Xin spoke with a stiff upper lip, feeling that the master was really shameless.
Shen Shuyi: “???”
!!!
Since when did she forget to check Xie Jingchi's pulse?
She turned to look for Yuping: "Didn't you prepare Xie Jingchi's medicinal food?"
Yu Ping was bewildered: "It's ready! Every day, I send it to Master Xie's house in different ways."
Shen Shuyi frowned. How could it be unpalatable?
Yuping's craftsmanship has always been the best.
Could it be that... I ate too much?
Qin Xin immediately asked again: "Miss, why don't you try cooking it yourself?"
Shen Shuyi chuckled.
Xie Jingchi was so picky that he would even replace the soles of his shoes if they were dirty, let alone the food she made.
After a long silence, Shen Shuyi said, "Okay, I'll try my best."
After all, when asking for help, you have to show sincerity.
But unexpectedly, just as she stood up, the invitation from Princess Guining was sent to the Shen Mansion again.
Bihe personally brought someone to deliver the post, with a big smile on her face.
"I've met the county lord."
Shen Shuyi collected his thoughts and said, "What brings my aunt here? Please take a seat."
Bi He smiled and said, "The princess had a very pleasant conversation with you last time, and I am still not satisfied, so I would like to invite the county lady to come to the princess's mansion again, drink and chat all night, I hope you can do me the honor."
Shen Shuyi put down the pen in her hand and said with a smile: "It is rare for the princess to be so kind, and I will not refuse it. I just ask Aunt to allow me to dress and change clothes."
Seeing that Shen Shuyi was indeed dressed casually and had her hair uncombed, Bihe responded and went back to the courtyard to wait.
Seeing the group leave, Jinzhu couldn't help but whisper: "Miss, why did Princess Guining invite you again? Will she..."
Jinzhu couldn't help but feel a little worried, after all, that was the princess.
She now has no good impression of these people in the royal family. They are full of calculations and can chop off people's heads with just a glance.
Their young lady is now being targeted...
"Don't worry." Shen Shuyi asked Jinzhu to dress her up while she asked Jianpo to deliver a letter to Jiang Li and Jiuchou.
Let the two of them prepare the manpower and wait near the Princess's Mansion, waiting for her news.
In addition, she asked Jianpo to stop by Qingyuan Marquis' Mansion to find his uncle and ask Shi Qifeng to write a story about a princess who forcibly kidnapped a young lady from a noble family and wanted her to marry her stupid son.
It does not need to be too long, just short and concise, but the plot must be tortuous and touching, with big twists and turns and strong suspense, and strive to spread in Beijing in the shortest time possible.

After a cup of tea, Shen Shuyi changed into a goose yellow double-breasted skirt and a thick black satin cloak. The cloak was embroidered with emerald green bamboo patterns with dark green silk threads, and it shone brightly as Shen Shuyi walked.
Bihe looked at Shen Shuyi in front of her calmly and had to admit that the new favorite of the Empress Dowager was indeed outstanding.
A beautiful and cold face, still a little childish. When she doesn't smile, there is an indescribable sharp majesty between her brows. When she raises her eyes to look at you, you only feel that her eyes are clear and distant, and clear and empty under the coldness.
"Trouble you, aunt." Shen Shuyi did not miss what Bihe said, "talk all night long."
It seems that after this trip, Princess Guining has no plans to let her come back in the next few days.
But it doesn’t matter, you will have to go through this sooner or later.
However, if I do this, I might miss my appointment with Xie Jingchi.
Not long after, Shen Shuyi got on Princess Guining's carriage. The carriage was full of luxury cars, with wind chimes swaying. In the extremely cold wind, the luxurious carriage passed through the long and winding main road, forming a sharp contrast with the people on the street who were wearing tattered clothes and shivering in the cold.
Shen Shuyi lowered the car window curtain, thinking that it was about time.
It’s time to use the charcoal that my uncle has stored in the next two days.
Otherwise, a large number of people will start to die in the capital.
Shen Shuyi withdrew his gaze, thinking that his uncle must have some plans in mind. On some things, he always thought the same as he did.
Bihe sat quietly aside, observing Shen Shuyi's expression.
Seeing that she seemed a little worried, I felt a little relieved.
It seems that the Princess of Changning County is not as fearless as the princess thought. Unfortunately, it is too late for her to be afraid now.
The princess was completely enraged, and her desire to win was aroused.
She admired Shen Shuyi and was determined to recruit her for her own use. This time, since Shen Shuyi dared to come, she couldn't think of leaving easily.
Because the snowy road was difficult to travel on, half an hour later, the carriage stopped at the side door of Princess Guining's mansion.
Shen Shuyi was helped out of the carriage.
After entering the Princess's Mansion, he was quickly invited to the main courtyard where Princess Guining lived.
When Shen Shuyi arrived, Xiao Mengxi's beautiful breasts were half exposed. She was wearing a white tube top dress with a tulle cover. Although she was in her forties, she was extremely charming and still had charm. Just one glance at her could make people blush and their heart beat faster.
At this moment, a male favorite was standing behind Xiao Mengxi, gently pressing her head, while another male favorite was half-kneeling beside the couch, occasionally feeding Xiao Mengxi a grape with his slender white jade fingers.
At the same time, in the middle of the hall filled with heated air, seven or eight men in white, with their clothes slightly open and their hair hanging down, all wearing golden half-face masks, were playing drums, piano, wielding pens and dancing with swords, looking very happy.
The lascivious music accompanied by the dense fragrance in the room makes people drowsy, but it also impacts people's senses to the extreme.
"Your humble servant greets the princess." Shen Shuyi said in a deep voice.
Xiao Mengxi retracted her gaze from the few people and glanced at Shen Shuyi calmly: "I didn't expect the county lady to really dare to come."
"The princess and I are drinking together and a thousand cups are not enough. The princess invites me, how dare I refuse?" Shen Shuyi responded with a smile.
Xiao Mengxi stared at her for a while, then suddenly stood up, clapped her hands and said with a smile: "Good! The county lady is really brave and courageous!"
She really admired Shen Shuyi. After all, who doesn't like a resourceful and smart woman? If such a person could stay by her side, she would definitely be able to protect Rui'er.
However, she also had to find a way to restrain her.
That way, she won't have any second thoughts.
