Tang Miaoxin paused for a moment before speaking, then sighed softly and continued: "When I met her three years ago, she had a very boring temperament and didn't speak much."
"She was the one who helped me when I escaped. The owner knew that she helped me, so he beat her up and sold her off again."
"After I heard the news that she was sold, I begged the crown prince to rescue her, and then we came to Rongzhou together."
Mu Yunxiu heard the key message: "Did you know her three years ago?"
Tang Miaoxin nodded: "Yes."
Mu Yunxiu's eyes were deep, and Tang Miaoxin asked softly: "Military advisor, is there something wrong?"
Mu Yunxiu did not answer her words, but only asked: "Qiu Shuang, can you guarantee that what you said is true?"
Tang Miaoxin nodded: "If you don't believe it, I can swear to God."
She has posted this kind of thing more frequently recently, and she has become more and more proficient in her business.
If he wanted to listen, she could give him a more credible oath.
Mu Yunxiu shook his head and said: "No, I believe you, but there are some things that need to be checked."
Tang Miaoxin felt like a bright mirror in her heart, but her face was filled with confusion as she asked: "What are you checking?"
Mu Yunxiu didn't explain anything to her, he just said: "You change into a set of clothes, and I will take you back to the palace."
Tang Miaoxin responded and went inside to change her clothes.
Mu Yunxiu prepared an ordinary skirt for her. After she put it on, she followed Mu Yunxiu to Dingbei Palace.
Tang Miaoxin noticed with sharp eyes that Mu Yunxiu also brought a doctor with him this time.
The doctor he brought to him at this time would not be to treat his illness, but more likely to verify something.
Tang Miaoxin's thoughts were deep. Today she was going to practice tricks with Mu Yun again.
I just don't know if there is an environment for "restarting" this time, and whether it can be done at once.
She glanced at the back of Mu Yunxiu's neck, and then at his thin body.
She extremely doubted that if she tried to "restart" him today, she would probably kill him.
If he dies now, their situation will only get worse.
Tang Miaoxin had a headache.
Yesterday, Lu Xianchen went out to the military camp and has not returned yet.
When Mu Yunxiu took Tang Miaoxin to Lu Xianchen's residence, no one supported them anymore.
This situation made Tang Miaoxin's mood complicated and tangled.
Lu Xianchen is quite stupid and of no great use, but with his identity there, he can always do the job at critical moments.
Today, the three of them faced Mu Yunxiu's temptation. Without Lu Xianchen, they had to rely entirely on themselves.
This time the test is about their tacit understanding and adaptability.
She was as calm as Tang Miaoxin, and her palms were sweating.
When Tang Miaoxin followed Mu Yunxiu in, Mo Li and Shuxiu were cleaning the table.
As soon as Shuxiu saw Tang Miaoxin, she asked, "Where did you go yesterday? Where is the Crown Prince?"
Tang Miaoxin's eyes were red: "I don't know where the prince is. I went out to play yesterday and was kidnapped."
"Fortunately, the military advisor saved me, otherwise I wouldn't be able to come back now."
As soon as Shuxiu heard this, she knew that something had happened to her when she went out, but she made peace with it.
But now that Mu Yunxiu has come to the door with so many people, he is afraid that something will happen again.
Shuxiu and Tang Miaoxin exchanged glances, and Shuxiu had an idea.
She asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
Tang Miaoxin said softly: "I'm fine."
Mu Yunxiu's eyes deepened when he saw the two of them, and asked Shuxiu: "How do you know Qiu Shuang?"
Shuxiu replied: "I met her three years ago when we worked together as maids in a wealthy family."
Tang Miaoxin was afraid that someone would ask about this before, so she and Shuxiu had already compiled a whole set of stories that would fit the bill.
Mu Yunxiu asked again: "Then how did you get to the prince?"
Shuxiu replied: "Qiu Shuang was abused by her master and escaped and was rescued. She thought it was a good job to serve the prince, so she helped me redeem my life, and then followed the prince."
This is also consistent with what Tang Miaoxin said before.
Mu Yunxiu looked at Shuxiu again and saw that although she looked ordinary, she looked a bit stubborn, which was consistent with Tang Miaoxin's words.
Mu Yunxiu turned his head and glanced at the doctor. The doctor understood and said to Shuxiu: "Miss Lao, please push up your trouser legs."
Shuxiu bit her lip, but listened to the doctor's words and straightened up her trouser legs.
The doctor carefully touched her leg with his hand and checked her pulse.
After he finished doing this, he said to Mu Yunxiu: "This girl's leg was indeed broken. She also suffered some hidden injuries, which have not been healed yet."
This matter is still consistent with what Tang Miaoxin said.
Mu Yunxiu is not a very suspicious person, but he is very cautious in doing things.
He asked Shuxiu to be taken down first, and then asked Tang Miaoxin: "On what day did you ask Qiuxe to be brought to the Crown Prince, and how much money did you spend to redeem her?"
Tang Miaoxin's heart sank, knowing that he was still testing her.
At that time, they just made up a complete story together and did not discuss the specific details.
She greeted Mu Yunxiu's eighteenth generation of ancestors in her heart, but she felt that it was better for him to do business like this, and it would be fatal if he really wanted to fall in love with her.
Her mind was spinning rapidly, and she soon had an answer that Shuxiu might be able to match:
"On the ninth day of December last year, I only had thirteen taels of silver, and I used it all to redeem her."
Mu Yunxiu asked again: "Do you know where Shuxiu is from?"
Tang Miaoxin felt that he was really annoying and there was no end to it!
She was thinking in her mind whether to kill him directly and then fight her way out of Dingbei Palace.
She calculated the risks she would take by doing the whole thing and endured it.
She replied: "She is from Qi State, and her hometown seems to be in Wu County, Chenzhou."
Mu Yunxiu was a little surprised: "She is from Qi? Then how did she get to Guiqian?"
Tang Miaoxin replied: "My slave girl told you before that she was abducted by human traffickers when she was a child. Traffickers don't care which country you are from."
Mu Yunxiu was probably angry when he heard that she used the title of slave again and also used honorifics at the same time.
He smiled and said to his subordinates: "Invite Qiu Se over again."
When Shuxiu came over, Mu Yunxiu asked her directly: "There are three questions in total."
"Where are you from? On what day did you come to the Crown Prince's side? How many taels of silver did Qiu Shuang spend on your redemption?"
Shuxiu glanced at Tang Miaoxin. Her expression was calm, as if she was letting her do whatever she wanted.
However, Shuxiu sharply saw something clasped on Tang Miaoxin's fingertips, and knew that if she answered incorrectly, the identities of the three of them would be exposed.
She and Tang Miaoxin had never discussed these questions before, and she didn't know how to answer them for a while.
Her eyes deepened slightly and she asked, "Is the military advisor checking us out?"
Mu Yunxiu said quietly: "If you have no problems, you will naturally be able to withstand the investigation."
"If there is a problem, you should be glad that I am checking you. If it were anyone else, it would not be so gentle."
