When I am connected with the prince of the same life

Chapter 88 Interrogation
Even if Lin Heng was dull, he understood that she was issuing an order to evict the guest.

He backed away, didn't say he wanted to stay overnight, but said, "You have a good rest...I'm going out these few days...to check on Zhao Liangxu"

"Okay." Cheng Muqing smiled.

After Lin Heng left, Cheng Muqing called Jin Xi, gave her a few words of advice, and then let her out.

In the dark night, Jinxi was dressed as a fat ball, walking in the courtyard with an oil lamp in his hand.

"Jinxi!" A Feng Diandian ran to her side, "It's so late, what are you doing?"

"Oh... I'll go to the Golden Eagle Division." Jin Xi said.

"It's so late?" Ah Feng asked in surprise, "Why don't I help you, what are you going to do?"

"No need." Jinxi refused him.

"It's so late, do you know how dangerous you are as a girl?" Afeng stopped in front of her, blocking her way, with a serious expression, "Aren't you afraid of meeting bad guys, being clicked by bad guys? Or being..."

"You! You don't expect my order!" Jin Xi exclaimed.

"I'm doing it for your own good." Ah Feng frowned, "How can there be a girl walking alone on the street this late? Aren't you waiting for others to bully you?"

"I……"

"Tell me, what are you going to do? I'll help you." Afeng interrupted her.

"I've said it, no need." Jin Xi pushed him away and continued walking.

"Then I'll accompany you." Afeng followed her, never leaving her.

"You... why are you treating me..."

"Because I like you."

"..." Jinxi suddenly felt a blur in front of her eyes, and her face was hot.

"I didn't lie to you." Afeng said seriously, "I really like you."

Pug raised her head and didn't look back at him, her heart beating faster.

The atmosphere between the two became very strange, silent and awkward, and time passed slowly between them.

"So what about you?"

Ah Feng said, "You go out...won't it be to meet your lover? Am I a step too late?"

"No!" Jin Xi hurriedly defended, "I...I'm going to help the princess..."

"What to do?"

"Help the concubine go to the Golden Eagle Division and find someone who knows how to work..." Jin Xi said.

"Why did you go to Wu Zuo?" A Feng was puzzled.

"I don't know." Jin Xi shook her head, "After the princess came back from the Liang Manor, she asked me to go to the Golden Eagle Division..."

A Feng nodded thoughtfully.

……

The next day, Cheng Muqing slept until noon.

She felt a little dizzy from sleeping, and Jinxi heard the rustling sound from the bed, and knew she was awake.

"Princess." Jinxi helped her up and brought water to feed her.

"Has the news been sent to the Golden Eagle Division?" Cheng Muqing looked dignified, sipping white water.

"Sent." Jin Xi nodded, "Master Yan said that Dr. He will, will send her to assist you."

"He Qianyuan?" Cheng Muqing nodded, "Very good..."

Pug turned around and fetched her clothes for her.

"Can someone go with you?" Cheng Muqing said, "Yesterday was too late, and I was negligent. I shouldn't have let you go out with a girl."

"It's okay..." Jin Xi smiled shyly, "Ah Feng went with me..."

Cheng Muqing let out an "um", but his expression didn't change at all.

"How is the situation in the Zhao residence?" Cheng Mu calculated the time, and the result should come out at this point.

"The thief said that after he went in, the theft went smoothly." Jin Xi said, "Princess, did you think too much? How could Zhao Shangshu set a trap and wait for you?"

"How smooth?" Cheng Muqing asked lazily.

"Hmm..." Jinxi thought for a while, "I don't know."

"Juxi, if you were a thief, would you tell others... Did you steal it smoothly?"

"Of course..." Pug paused.

"Bring him, I'll ask." Cheng Muqing said.

"Oh...okay." Jinxi hurriedly went to lead someone.

After a while, Cheng Muqing put on his clothes, and Jinxi also brought him up.

The thief's clothes were a little ragged, with a layer of dust on them.

Cheng Muqing keenly observed that his arm was injured, and there were traces of blood on his ripped clothes.

"Madam..." The little thief raised his eyes to look at her, thinking that he was really unlucky, he finally escaped from the Zhao residence, and fell into another wolf's mouth.He sighed heavily, "What do you want?"

"I have something to ask you." Cheng Muqing smiled, "Please sit down."

Seeing her smiling kindly, the thief slowly got up and sat on the low stool.

"Last night, did you go to Zhao's mansion to rob?" Cheng Muqing put his hands on the table, although his face was still calm, his aura became a little majestic.

The thief nodded.

"Who did you meet?"

"I didn't meet anyone..."

"Then you stole it smoothly?" Cheng Muqing raised his eyebrows, "I like to be straightforward, so you'd better tell the truth and don't make me bother."

"I really didn't meet anyone!" The thief hurriedly waved his hand, "I ran away after stealing...but I was caught by a strong man within two steps." At that time, he thought he would be sent to the government. , did not expect to be sent to this house.

Speaking of which, this house is really big and magnificent.The little thief silently cursed in his heart.

"Say." Cheng Muqing slapped the table with his palm, making the wooden table creak.

The little thief was taken aback, "Just... a lot of people... the leader is a middle-aged man, and he brought a lot of subordinates..."

"Are there any young men around 24 or [-] by his side?"

The thief shook his head.

"Then what did you steal?" Cheng Muqing continued to ask.

"Ten taels of silver...a jade pendant."

"Show me."

The thief reluctantly offered up the stolen goods.

"This jade is so good..." Cheng Muqing's tone seemed to be a little disdainful, "The person who gave you these things is really picky."

The little thief looked at her involuntarily, and his face became more serious as she said the words.

"These items were given to you on purpose, to be stolen by you..." Cheng Muqing said, "Let me think about it, he let you out, in fact, he wanted to prove that you really succeeded in stealing it, right?"

The thief blinked twice, not daring to look at her.

"He probably wants you to pretend to enter the house smoothly." Cheng Muqing leaned slightly, "Is that right?"

"Eh..." The little thief's eyes flickered slightly, and his expression was very disturbed.

"Tell me about what happened to you after you entered." Cheng Muqing said, "I'll listen to everything."

The thief seemed a little hesitant.

Cheng Muqing took out ten taels of silver, put it on the table, and glanced at the thief again.

The little thief stared at the silver, and immediately talked about what happened to him last night.

As he listened, Cheng Muqing was attracted by one sentence——

"A servant went to the middle-aged man on the way, and he didn't know what he said. The middle-aged man was very angry and scolded his mother several times... Oh, yes, there was also a middle-aged woman who persuaded the man..."

After the little thief explained, Cheng Muqing let him go.

The room was silent, and the world was instantly quiet.

Her inferences just now are all correct, what does this mean?
The Zhao family really has a problem.

Cheng Muqing rubbed her chin, the Zhao family intentionally lured her to catch her.As the concubine of Qi, she broke into the residence of the Minister of the Household Department at night. No matter how it was rumored, she had a disadvantaged background.Even if she said she was investigating the Zhao family, and the Zhao family was indeed investigating the incident, it might make people think that she was avenging herself.

　Preview of the next chapter:
　　"Sure enough, as long as it's a gambling house, it's not a good thing." Cheng Muqing said, and took two steps over there, "Is there a Golden Eagle Guard over there?"

　　"There were originally, but they withdrew after a few days." Jin Yingwei, who sold buns, said, "Recently, His Royal Highness is short of people, and Jin Yingsi has gone a lot."
