Spring in the East Palace

Dong Jin seemed to understand but didn't ask any more questions. As a secret guard, she knew very well what to ask and what not to ask.

Shen Muyin didn't say anything, but sat quietly in the carriage as it slowly entered Kyoto City.

Suddenly, Shen Muyin looked outside the curtain. The figure almost flashed by, but Shen Muyin saw it clearly.

That is Changfu.

Why is Changfu here?

Shouldn't he be in the embroidery room?

Thinking of this, Shen Muyin was silent for a moment: "Let's go to the embroidery room first, and then go back to the Shen Mansion."

"I understand." Dong Jin nodded.

Then Dong Jin immediately whispered instructions to the coachman, and the carriage drove towards the embroidery room until it stopped at the back door of the room.

Shopkeeper Wang didn't expect Shen Muyin to come suddenly, and hurried out to greet him.

"Miss, why did you come here suddenly?" Shopkeeper Wang asked Shen Muyin.

Shen Muyin remained calm: "I just happened to be passing by, so I came to take a look."

Shopkeeper Wang nodded and soon accompanied Shen Muyin into the courtyard, where the embroiderers were all working.

Xu Jinxiu also came over quickly and accompanied Shen Muyin to watch the embroiderer work, and asked Shen Muyin for some embroidery techniques.

Shen Muyin taught seriously.

"By the way, has there been anything unusual recently?" Shen Muyin asked Shopkeeper Wang.

Xu Jinxiu had already gone to work. Shopkeeper Wang thought about it carefully and shook his head: "There is nothing unusual. After the last visit to the Prince's Mansion, no one mentioned the double-sided embroidery."

Shen Muyin nodded, and seemed to change the subject instantly: "Why didn't I see Changfu?"

She looked around and asked casually.

"Changfu is busy in the backyard. I asked him to go out and bring back the cloth a while ago." Shopkeeper Wang explained.

"Where did the material come from?" Shen Muyin asked lightly.

"Jiangnan has imported a batch of materials. They arrived not long ago and Changfu is counting the bill." Shopkeeper Wang continued.

Shen Muyin stood there calmly.

She was counting the hours.

If the person just now was Changfu, then Changfu would not have enough time to appear in the embroidery room from the city gate.

Shen Muyin knew that Changfu only knew a little martial arts and had better physical strength, but to reach this distance, at least he would need to have the skills of Qinggong to arrive before her.

So did I really see it wrong?

But Shen Muyin was very sure that figure was Changfu, so what went wrong?

"I'll go take a look at the material." Shen Muyin responded calmly.

Shopkeeper Wang nodded and quickly took Shen Muyin to the backyard.

Sure enough, she saw Changfu in the backyard, counting the materials with his head down and then sending them to the warehouse one by one.

Shen Muyin casually flipped through the material but didn't say anything. After all, all the materials that could reach the embroidery room were of top quality.

But the corner of her eyes always fell on Changfu, and she looked at him carefully, but even so, she didn't find anything unusual.

In the end, Shen Muyin didn't say anything, just gave Manager Wang a few instructions, then turned and left.

When he walked to the door, Shen Muyin suddenly thought of something.

"There will be some orders from the palace later. You can also let Changfu go around. Otherwise, it will be too hard for you to do it alone." Shen Muyin said casually.

"Thank you very much for your concern, Miss." Shopkeeper Wang nodded.

Shen Muyin didn't say anything. He returned to the carriage and got on quietly.

The car slowly left the embroidery room and headed towards the Shen family.

Shen Muyin knew very well that the reason why Changfu was asked to go through the palace's list was to determine whether there was any problem with Changfu.

Because of this incident, there are only two possibilities, either there is something wrong with Changfu, or there is something wrong with my eyes.

Shen Muyin couldn't judge.

Sometimes taking risks is the best option.

In such deep thought, Shen Muyin returned to the Shen Mansion.

Probably because it was the Ghost Festival, the Shen Mansion was also decorated and it was quite lively.

Steward Wang saw Shen Muyin and hurried forward: "Miss, you are back?"

"Yes." Shen Muyin responded, "Has anything happened in the mansion in the past few days?"

"Except that Master Su'er was still making noises as usual, nothing else happened." Steward Wang replied respectfully, "The adults are all in the palace and did not come back for dinner at night. The second young lady is accompanying Madam Shen, and the third lady and the third young master are still in Beiyuan and rarely come out."

Butler Wang told Shen Muyin everything in detail.

Shen Muyin nodded but said nothing.

"I'll prepare some food for you and take you to the Wenxiang Pavilion to rest." Butler Wang continued quickly.

Shen Muyin walked quietly towards the Wenxiang Pavilion. He was indeed tired after all this trouble.

So Shen Muyin is not pretentious.

When they returned to the Wenxiang Pavilion, Huixiang came to meet them in a hurry: "Miss, you are back. I will make tea for you."

"Okay." Shen Muyin said with a smile.

Fennel made tea for Shen Muyin and told him everything about the Shen family.

It's nothing more than some family matters, and since the Ghost Festival is approaching, everyone is preparing for the festival.

"What is this?" Shen Muyin was a little surprised when he suddenly saw an unfinished purse hanging around Fennel's waist.

The color of the purse is white, and the snow satin left behind can be used by both men and women.

But things like purses are embroidered by girls themselves, mostly for the ones they love.

Especially now it is the Ghost Festival, the atmosphere is even more ambiguous.

"Xiang, do you have someone you like?" Shen Muyin raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.

Fennel shook her head: "No, I just learned embroidery, but I'm not very good at it. This material is what the young lady had left over from cutting clothes before. I thought it would be a waste to throw it away, so I used it."

This explanation was reasonable. Shen Muyin looked at Fennel, and there was no trace of girlish romance in her eyes.

She smiled and said, "If Fennel has someone she likes, you can tell me and I will make the decision for her."

"Okay." Fennel nodded with a smile, "But, I still want to follow you, young lady. I don't want to be separated from you at all."

"You are just sweet-talker and know how to make me happy." Shen Muyin was helpless.

Soon, Butler Wang personally brought some snacks over.

"Miss, the third young master saw the food and clamored to come over to find you." Shen Huai was standing next to Butler Wang.

Shen Huai was still acting crazy, and couldn't stop drooling when he saw the delicious food: "Eat...eat cakes...A Huai...I want...I want to eat."

Even his speech was stuttering.

The people in the Shen residence were all very rude to Shen Huai, not to mention when the second wife was still around, they were even more disgusted with her.

Only Shen Muyin is very good to Shen Huai, so it is understandable that Shen Huai likes to pester Shen Muyin.

"It's okay, let Ahuai stay." Shen Muyin nodded in agreement.

Butler Wang only has a vague understanding of Shen Huai's affairs.
