Born to be a star? The abstinent prince dotes on her

Chapter 137 It turns out that the real purpose of "abortion" is this

Boss Xie was also very straightforward. Since he had already agreed to tell her, he would not hide it.

"He does a big business, including silk, tea, textiles, etc. It's definitely not just the obvious ones."

"Jiangnan is famous for being the place with the most prostitutes. He has several brothels and pleasure boats. I don't know what else there is."

Shen Yindi raised his eyebrows, it seems that he is a big boss.

"It should be very lively over in Jiangnan, right? There are people from all over the world." Shen Yindi continued to ask tentatively.

"Yes, there are a lot of people. Jiangnan is very famous as the city that never sleeps."

"Have you ever seen people who are not from Da Chu coming here to do business?" Shen Yindi continued to ask.

"Yes. Many merchants from neighboring countries also come here. They mainly do silk business."

Shen Yindi nodded.

"Meng Shizhao has a powerful backer, and now he is basically the only one in Jiangnan."

"Why? Miss Shen wants to meet him?" Boss Xie asked curiously.

"No, just asking casually."

"Thank you so much, boss, for sharing this with me. It helps me a lot."

"Miss Shen, you don't have to be polite. If you don't want to know him, I, Xie, would like to remind you to try not to provoke him. This man is a notorious smiling tiger, and his tactics are very... well, somewhat disgusting." Boss Xie shook his head, somewhat disdainful of his methods.

"Don't worry, Boss Xie. He's always in Jiangnan. I can't mess with him. But I still appreciate your reminder."

"I heard that he has been coming back to the capital quite frequently in the past two years. He used to not come back once a year, but now he only comes back for a few days every few months."

Shen Yindi nodded thoughtfully.

Then they left Xie’s house.

After coming out, Chu Yan asked in a low voice: "Adi, do you think the Queen asked Meng Shizhao to move around in Jiangnan and do something for her?"

Shen Yindi smiled: "As expected of my prince, you know everything I'm thinking! We are so in tune with each other!"

"Didn't you ask Si Yin to help you check before?"

Originally, he wanted to ask Shadow to investigate, but he was doing his best to investigate the whereabouts of his other three brothers, so his ability was limited after all.

In order to get useful information as quickly as possible, Chu Yan didn't care about his face.

"Yes, but he hasn't reported the results of his investigation to me yet. Maybe he has a lot of secrets over there, so they need to investigate more carefully."

"Since we're here today, it would be nice if we could get some clues."

Shen Yindi shrugged and said disapprovingly.

"If possible, I'd really like to visit Jiangnan. It must be very beautiful, right?" Shen Yindi felt a little yearning for some reason.

In her previous life, she also liked traveling to Jiangnan, which was one of her ways to relax.

She just wanted to see what Jiangnan looked like in this time and space?

Chu Yan pursed his lips. He didn’t know what to say because he had no way to leave the imperial capital.

Shen Yindi seemed to sense his depressed mood. She quickly grabbed his hand and then let go.

After all, it's outside.

"Once your problem is settled, we'll go together."

"When the time comes, take me with you to travel the world and see the world." She said with a smile.

"Okay." Chu Yan agreed.

Facing her expectant eyes, he couldn't say no.

After a moment's silence, he finally said, "But my problem may not be completely resolved so quickly."

After all, it has been a long time and it is difficult to collect evidence. So far, no new strong evidence has been found.

As long as the emperor does not announce a retrial, he will continue to bear the charge of treason.

"It doesn't matter. We are already investigating. Not only Lord Mu but also Pavilion Master Si Yin are involved. They are all top intelligence gathering organizations. We won't have any trouble finding them."

"And Cangwu is back too. Let's wait until he gets better and then join the investigation together. I believe it won't take too long!"

Listening to Shen Yindi's confident words, Chu Yan seemed to be infected involuntarily.

"Yeah. I hope we can find new favorable evidence soon."

After they left Boss Xie's place, they went to Mu Ningyuan's house.

Mu Ningyuan is taking a day off at home today.

His mother's condition had also improved significantly, and a hint of life could be seen in her face again.

She had early-stage lung cancer and her special anti-cancer medicine was very effective.

We have successfully passed the first stage.

You still need to take medicine in the second stage, mainly to prevent the recurrence and metastasis of cancer cells.

She now looks thinner and paler, but she doesn't look sick at all.

After comforting his mother, Mu Ningyuan took them to the study.

"Yun Yi, Miss Shen, Concubine Xian brought someone into the palace a few days ago. It is said that person is her aunt. She had been living with him until the emperor brought her into the palace."

Shen Yindi raised her eyebrows. The emperor really doted on her and even brought relatives into the palace to live with her.

So this was the real purpose of her "abortion"?

"Pavilion Master Si Yin told me before that he found out that she lived in Jiangnan before she entered the palace. The Emperor met her during his southern tour."

"Meng Shizhao is doing big business in Jiangnan again..." Shen Yindi touched her chin. This idea came to her in a flash today when she heard Boss Xie talk about Meng Shizhao.

"Adi, do you mean that she might be Meng Shizhao's person?" Chu Yan immediately understood what Shen Yindi meant.

"I'm not sure, I'm just guessing."

"Boss Xie said today that Meng Shizhao owns several brothels in Jiangnan. It's so easy for him to find beauties. What kind of women can't he find?"

"Meng Shizhao is the queen's nephew. Are they in the same group?"

Mu Ningyuan also boldly guessed that he was usually responsible for investigating cases and his logical ability was also very strong.

"It's possible. There's just no favorable evidence now. But I think her aunt should be a key person."

"Then I will send someone to keep an eye on it."

"Ah."

They didn't stay with Mu Ningyuan for long. Mu Ningyuan originally wanted to invite them to dinner, but the two said they had other things to do and declined, saying they would do it next time.

Mu Ningyuan didn't force it.

After leaving the Mu Mansion, they actually wanted to visit Master Xu.

After all, we've come this far.

I want to have dinner at Taifu’s house.

Xu Taifu's house is near the Imperial College. He has lived in poverty all his life and now lives in two dilapidated wooden houses.

Along with Lu Jiayao, there is also an auntie who is responsible for taking care of their daily life. The auntie is fat, so everyone calls her Fat Auntie.

But someone would send him food on a regular basis, maybe his students or maybe the emperor.

Seeing them coming, Master Xu was very happy and said he would cook for them.

They asked Aunt Pang to cook a few dishes and buy some wine, and then they started eating in the house.

There were only four of them. Aunt Fat ate very quickly and went to do her work after finishing her meal.

After three rounds of drinking, Master Xu suddenly came over and said in a low voice, "Two days ago, the Emperor suddenly came to my place and asked me to come out of retirement."
