With one hand she heals, and the other hand she kills, the princess vows to rule the world!

Chapter 442 Sincerity is the eternal killer move!

After finishing the whole bowl of porridge and two pieces of hawthorn cake, Shu He looked at him and said, "Is this okay? I really can't eat anymore!"

Baili Moqing nodded, a bit of pride on his face, "Okay, it's not bad."

"Tell me quickly, where is Arou? Is she okay?"

Baili Moqing also ate a piece of hawthorn hibiscus cake, which was a bit sweet and a bit sour, not as good as the osmanthus cake next to it.

He doesn't like sour taste.

"She's fine, she should be safe. I guess you can't imagine who saved her."

Shu He asked, "Who?"

He didn't intend to tell him so directly, and only said, "You can guess."

Shu He was not annoyed about this.

Knowing that Zhang Zhirou was fine, she felt much more relieved.

"This person who even surprised you, it seems, is not an ordinary person."

She cooperated very well in her speculation, while Baili Moqing looked at her with eyes full of doting.

"Whoever can save Zhang Zhirou must be more skilled than her, right?"

"But in Kyoto, besides knowing Jiang Dongping and Xizhu, she doesn't seem to have any other masters."

Anyone who can rescue people from Prince Jin’s Mansion without being caught must be at least a third-rank official, right?

Even Shu He didn’t know many of the third rank.

Zhenli is one of them. In the past six months, Beiji has almost reached the third rank or above, right? But they are not in Kyoto, so it is not them.

Apart from Baili Moqing, the only other expert above the third rank in Kyoto is Shen Lanzhi, whose strength is unknown.

"Could it be Shen Lanzhi?"

"Although his relationship with Arou is not the best, they can be considered friends. If he saw Arou in danger, he would probably save her."

Unexpectedly, Baili Moqing shook his head and asked her to continue guessing.

"If it's not Shen Lanzhi, then who else could it be?"

Anyway, it is definitely not Jiang Dongping and Baili Moqing's people, otherwise he would not be so surprised.

Shu He said again, "It can't be Baili Moyan's people, right?" To show goodwill?

Baili Moqing still shook his head.

Shu He couldn't think of anyone else and clearly lost his patience. "Forget it, no more guessing! Just tell me, who is it?"

Seeing that she was a little annoyed, he chuckled, put down the hawthorn cake, wiped his hands, and then said a name that Shu He could never imagine.

"Shu Yuanqi."

"Shu Yuanqi?"

"How can this be?!"

Wasn't he still seriously injured? He had trouble even walking, right? How could he possibly rescue Zhang Zhirou from the heavily guarded Prince Jin's mansion?

Baili Moqing knew that she would not believe it so easily, so he told her about Shu Yuanqi's visit to the Precious Medicine Pavilion yesterday to buy the antidote for the cartilage powder, and also about his surrender to King Jin.

These two things might not be a big deal if they were separated, but when combined together, and with the fact that Zhang Zhirou was first arrested in Prince Jin's Mansion and then mysteriously disappeared, it becomes clear that there is a big problem.

Shu He was a smart man and naturally understood what he meant.

But she still found it hard to believe.

Shu Yuanqi, he was so badly injured, how could he do this?

Does he have such courage and perseverance?

Moreover, this matter is difficult to accomplish with courage and perseverance alone! It also requires extraordinary cunning and calculation, as well as the calmness and confidence as steady as a rock in the face of the suspicion of the Prince of Jin's Mansion!

It's impossible for a playboy to do that even if he turns back, right?

Baili Moqing said, "Perhaps, we have all made a mistake."

Did you make a mistake?

After hearing this, Shu He fell into deep thought again.

Ever since returning to Beijing, she thought she understood Shu Yuanqi thoroughly enough, and even his calculations and tactics hidden beneath the surface were clearly visible to her.

I thought that he would be a hindrance in Kyoto because of his crippled legs.

She wanted to send him away and leave this place of trouble, but he was unwilling and secretly left the Zhenyao Pavilion on his own.

Unexpectedly, his departure accidentally saved Zhang Zhirou's life...

Shu Yuanqi defected to King Jin, what else did he want to do?

"Do you think he has other intentions?" She looked at Baili Moqing, wanting to hear someone else's answer for the first time to confirm her own guess.

Baili Moqing raised an eyebrow, very puzzled, "You think his motives are impure?"

After all, he is her second brother. Does she really not trust him?

Shu He lowered his eyes, his expression full of complexity.

She didn't know what Shu Yuanqi's purpose was in saving Zhang Zhirou, but she subconsciously felt that he would not do such a thing.

After all, this is not his style.

When he dealt with the children of officials in the past, he always hid himself very well.

In addition, with the protection of the "dandy" appearance, no one expected that the manipulator behind the downfall of some officials in Kyoto was actually the dandy young master despised by everyone, Shu Yuanqi!

But this time, by saving Zhang Zhirou, he obviously put himself in danger, and he might expose himself if he is not careful.

And when that time really comes, perhaps all the things he had done in secret will be discovered.

This risk is undoubtedly huge.

"Why would such a cautious person like him take such a risk for Zhang Zhirou, who has no relatives or friends?"

It can't be because of her, right?

As if he could see what she hadn't said, Baili Moqing asked, "Why don't you think that he risked his life to save Zhang Zhirou for you?"

Having his thoughts exposed, Shu He remained silent, with a hint of self-mockery flashing in his bright eyes.

For her?

Love for the house and the dog? Or a change of heart and self-atonement?

Forget it! She couldn't bear this belated affection!

Baili Moqing's eyes turned slightly, as if there was something he couldn't say.

"Actually, after returning to Beijing, I investigated your Shu family, your two brothers, and naturally, you as well."

After hearing this, Shu He's eyes turned cold and he was obviously unhappy.

He explained in a slightly anxious tone, "You took Yi'er away without saying a word. I don't even know how I managed to get through that month!"

"You can't blame me for investigating."

"I want to know where you're going. I also want to know why you're so desperate to take Yi'er away from me!"

Perhaps, it was because at that time, he became curious about her and wanted to know what kind of person she was?

In short, investigation is necessary and inevitable!

She looked at him, staring at him, with some disappointment in her eyes, "You still don't know why we left in the first place?"

The morning sun shone over the courtyard wall and onto the handsome, bright faces of the two men, like a flame, instantly warming up the atmosphere that was about to become cold.

He stood up, stretched out his hand, and used his long sleeves to block the light that was shining directly into her eyes.

He deliberately moved closer to her, with a hint of apology in his eyes, and whispered, "I really don't know why you left, but I can guess a little."

"Nanqi is right. During those days, my attitude was very bad and I said a lot of nasty words..." It hurt her badly.

"I think this is part of the reason why you want to leave."

"I apologize for losing control of my emotions."

Looking at his eyes, Shu He remembered a sentence: Sincerity is the eternal killer skill!

An apology and an admission of fault extinguished all the little flames of anger that had just risen in her heart.

And the hand that was blocking her cheek, slender and well-proportioned, shining in the sun, made her lose all her temper.
