“Shiye and I came today to personally escort her because we were afraid of being seen. Naturally, we were afraid that people would find out that Shao Shuting’s younger sister was resting here. Her ident.i.ty as the Empress cannot be Imown to others. When the time comes, I’ll have to trouble you to help me fabricate my younger sister’s background to fool the rest…”
“My sister, she…” At this point, Shao Shuting suddenly fell silent. After a while, he continued, “Her child has already gone missing. Nothing must happen to this child. Otherwise, she definitely won’t be able to survive this world. She was spoiled by us at home in the past too much. It’s difficult for her to be the Empress. I even regret agreeing to her entering the palace to be the Empress in the first place actually…”
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other. They both seemed to want to see each other’s intentions.
“You don’t have to really take care of her,” Shao Shuting said. “You just have to let my sister stay at your house for a while. She can stay in the small rooms behind your new house.”
Xue Yan sighed in his heart and still opened his mouth, “It’s not safe here.”
If someone found out that the Empress was in his house, not only would something happen to the Empress and the child in her stomach, but even his family would be ma.s.sacred.
Although Jiang Yue was very skilled, she herself won’t be able to save everyone. If someone really came to paint his house in blood, Jiang Yue would definitely not be able to do anything.
He could not agree to this request.
“No, you guys are very safe here.” Shao Shuting immediately said.
“I can’t tell you anything else, but I can tell you that there are no more spies in this town. The people who want to harm my sister aren’t here. There are also people in the palace who will cover for me and let others mistakenly think that my sister is still in the palace.
“Previously, Shiye exposed my ident.i.ty at the county government office and let some people know that I was recuperating here. It was you who saved me, but you were completely fine.
“That’s because you’re just two children from a farming family, no one will treat you as a threat. Naturally, they won’t be arrogant and cause trouble for you. If they wanted to do anything to you, they would have done it long ago. It hasn’t been so long since they’ve taken action. Naturally, I won’t waste my time watching you.”
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan frowned.
Other things were easy to understand, but how could this person be so sure that there were no more spies in this town?
Could it be that Shao Zhongxi had come to clear the path ahead and kill all the spies? Or did he lure away all the spies instead?
If they were killed, there would definitely be more spies sent over. It was impossible for there to be no spies at all… So the only plausible reason was that Shao Zhongxi had lured away the spies!
If that was the case, then what method did Shao Zhongxi use to lure away all the spies?
Since Shao Shuting said that he could not tell them anything else, even if they asked, Shao Shuting would definitely not answer.
Thinking so, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan’s eyes met again.
“You guys aren’t being watched,” Shao Shuting continued, “If you just randomly make up an ident.i.ty for my sister to stay in your house, then who would suspect that the person staying in your house is actually the Empress that everyone thinks is still in the palace? No one will suspect anything. People in other places don’t even know that a woman is staying in your house to rest.
At most, only the people in your village and the surrounding areas will know. However, among the people of this village, who would think that a woman in your family was the Empress just because? Trust me, this place is the safest place for my sister.”
He said the last sentence very seriously..
