Butler Su looked at Jing Shu's intention, counted the numbers, and said: "Miss, there are fifty gold bars in total. One gold bar is ten taels of gold. In other words, this lady surnamed Qi has given you a total of five hundred taels of gold. , one tael of gold can be exchanged for ten taels of silver, which adds up to five thousand taels of silver!"

The corners of Jingshu's mouth twitched.

Five thousand taels of silver... really a generous sum.

She was inexplicably moved in her heart.

This Qi Mingzhu looked like he was very picky and dissatisfied with her. He was arrogant and gave her her favorite gold in the blink of an eye. This was clearly a person with a disdain for his integrity.

She also has a unique personality and is so cute.

"Miss, do you want to accept these?" Butler Su asked.

"Take it." Jing Shu held her forehead and suddenly felt a little headache.

Gold, of course she likes it.

She was also a little touched by Qi Mingzhu's behavior of giving her gold. However, in terms of status, she was the elder sister. She felt a little guilty for accepting the money from her sister. If she had known that today, she should have asked Qi Mingzhu what she liked. , or return the favor.

"Send someone to call Jiang Xue back and tell her that I have something to ask her." Jing Shu ordered Butler Su.

"Yes, old slave, go now!" Butler Su said and quickly withdrew.

Nowadays, Jiang Xue is in charge of the intelligence business and is no longer in the house often. She usually stays in the upper room of the restaurant in Luoshenju and is responsible for handling all kinds of intelligence information with the twelve people from Jin Yiwei.

But as soon as the housekeeper sent someone to send him there, she rushed back immediately.

"Sister, what do you want me to do?" Jiang Xue asked quickly as soon as she saw Jing Shu.

"A pair of brothers and sisters are staying at the Luoshenju Inn today. Send two Jin Yiwei men to keep an eye on the place. If these two people encounter any danger, you must protect them." Jing Shu said.

"What's the background of these siblings? Why do you think your sister thinks so highly of them?" Jiang Xue said with some surprise.

"You will know later. In short, just protect them now. If they find out, just tell them directly that I am the one who followed them to protect them. This is a thank you for the gold they sent over." Jing Shu said. .

"I understand, sister. I will definitely do what my sister tells me." Jiang Xue agreed immediately.

"There is one more thing, which is also very important." Jingshu said thoughtfully, "You want the Jin Yiwei people to focus on one person recently."

"Who?" Jiang Xue asked curiously.

"Princess Qing." Jing Shu looked at her with a solemn and serious expression, "Find out her details, what she does every day, when she travels, and where she usually goes. The more detailed this information is, the better. Finally, Send it to me in the next five days."

"I understand, sister, don't worry!" Jiang Xue knew what was going on.

After that, she left decisively and returned to Luoshenju to give Jin Yiwei these two new tasks.

In the next two days, Jing Shu saw neither the Qi Jin brothers nor Lu Zan.

She was a little curious about what Lu Zan was doing.

I had previously considered sending two Jinyi guards to follow Lu Zan, but I thought that this bitch must be surrounded by secret guards. I was afraid that not only would I not be able to detect anything, but I would also be caught by him, so I gave up. This unnecessary thought.

As for the Qi Jin brothers and sisters, Jin Yiwei would come over to report to her every day.

The two of them played in the city very seriously for two days, as if they were just having fun and waiting for news from her.

Jing Shu deliberately delayed and did not reply to them.

After dragging on for two more days, the Jin Yiwei sent by Jiang Xue to keep an eye on Princess Qing finally came over with news.

"My subordinates found out that Princess Qing was a noblewoman from the capital. She was said to have been born from the concubine of Liu Zhenyi, Minister of the Ministry of Industry. She had been raised in a boudoir. Later, she came to Saibei with her uncle and met Prince Qing. At that time, she It had been a year since Princess Qing passed away, so she became Prince Qing's successor.

"Princess Qing doesn't like to go out, and she doesn't interact with the ladies in the city on weekdays. However, the servants of the palace said that she would go to the Salesian Bureau outside the city every half month to bring food and clothing. Used to visit those homeless orphans.

"Also, every time she leaves the Salesian Bureau, she does not immediately return to the palace. Instead, she takes a carriage and travels a long way to burn incense at a Buddhist temple on a nearby mountain. She usually stays in the Buddhist temple for two days before returning. The palace.

"Princess Qing doesn't seem to have any hobbies. She also eats food and chants Buddha's name in the palace. She treats Prince Qing with respect as a guest. The relationship is good or bad. After she married Prince Qing, she did not give birth to any children, but she treated the pair of children left by the late princess as her own. , the children also respect her as their biological mother and have a very close relationship with her."

After Jin Yiwei finished his report, Jing Shu's face showed a hint of coldness that looked like a smile but not a smile.

A noble lady from the capital?

A daughter born from an illegitimate wife, Liu Zhenyi, Minister of Industry and Industry?

Did Liu Zhenyi know that he had raised a foreign wife and gave birth to a daughter for him?

This Princess Qing is so interesting.

"Tell Jiang Xue to contact the people in the capital and make inquiries to see if there really is a noble daughter like her in the capital. Even if she is a daughter-in-law who dares to bear the title of Minister of the Ministry of Industry... she must have someone to give birth to her. Only the biological mother who raised her can be justified.”

"Yes, Miss." Jin Yiwei quickly agreed.

Jing Shu was very suspicious. If Princess Qing was really Chan'er, then her identity was definitely fake.

Yingtian had mentioned Chan'er to her before. He knew Chan'er, but he still didn't recognize Princess Qing as Chan'er for so many years, which meant that Chan'er must also be in disguise.

It seems that not only does she have to find a way to meet Princess Qing, but she also has to find a way to expose her true face!

"When was the last time she left the palace to go to the Salesian Bureau?" Jingshu asked again.

"As for the eldest lady, it has been exactly fifteen days since now, which means that she will leave the house tomorrow." Jin Yiwei replied.

"Do you know where the Buddhist temple she went to is?"

"There is only one Buddhist temple in nearby Mao'er Mountain, called Fatan Temple. It can be reached in half a day from the city."

"Today you first send someone to guard Fatan Temple to see if there is anything unusual about that temple. In addition, make arrangements. Tomorrow Princess Qing will leave the palace, and I will also leave the palace together to go to the Salesian Bureau. Look." Jingshu ordered.

As soon as I see Princess Qing tomorrow, many questions may be answered!
