873 Concealment (2)
Fu Xiuyi had always suspected that the person behind Pei Lang was from the Shen family, but after investigating, he found that it wasn’t the case. If not the Shen family, who could it be?
“Your Highness, there’s no news of Pei Lang in the capital. Could it be because Pei Lang has already left the city?” The aide asked.
“That’s impossible.” Fu Xiuyi said, “I have people guarding the city gate. Everyone who left the city these days has to be investigated. It’s impossible for Pei Lang to leave unnoticed.”
The aide frowned when he heard that, not knowing what to say.

“However, there are people who didn’t have to be investigated.” Fu Xiuyi suddenly said, “That day, when Prince Rui’s wedding procession left the city, no one stopped them.”
The aide’s eyes lit up. “Could Pei Lang have mixed in with Prince Rui’s people and walked out?”
Fu Xiuyi sneered. “Everyone under Prince Rui is strictly selected. How can he sneak in? Moreover, Pei Lang and Prince Rui are not friends. How can he…” He suddenly stopped.
At this moment, Fu Xiuyi suddenly thought of something. All along, he had treated Pei Lang as a member of the Shen family, and the person in charge of the Shen family was Shen Xin. However, he had neglected one thing. In fact, from the looks of it, the one who was in the way of his great cause had always been Shen Miao.

If Pei Lang was not loyal to the Shen family but Shen Miao alone, everything would make sense. 𝚋𝚎ｄｎｏ𝚟𝚎ｌ.ｎ𝚎𝚝
Pei Lang was Shen Miao’s man and Shen Miao was now Princess Consort Rui. For the sake of Shen Miao, Prince Rui might help Pei Lang this time.
In that case, Pei Lang and Prince Rui were related.
Fu Xiuyi suddenly stood up. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case. In the entire capital, the only person who had the ability to burn down his dungeon without anyone knowing and escape unscathed was Prince Rui.
“Damn it!” Fu Xiuyi slammed the table. He had always wanted to know what secrets Prince Rui was hiding. However, the night before Shen Miao got married, the spies he sent never returned. They must have been discovered and killed. Otherwise, he would know what the secret Prince Rui was hiding was.
Just as he was feeling vexed, he saw a guard rush in from outside. This guard was trusted by Fu Xiuyi. He quickly walked forward and took out a letter from his pocket. “A letter came out of the princess’s mansion. It was sent to the palace. I intercepted this letter and made a copy. Your Highness, please take a look.”
Fu Xiuyi’s heart skipped a beat and he quickly took the letter. Princess Rong Xin was also acting very abnormally whenever Prince Rui was concerned. Fu Xiuyi wanted to investigate, but ever since Prince Rui and Shen Miao left the capital, neither Princess Rong Xin nor the Earl of Pingnan had done anything special, making him unable to find anything.
Princess Rong Xin had been alone for many years and was not very close to the Emperor Wen Hui. It was rare for her to enter the palace, let alone take the initiative to write a letter.
Fu Xiuyi took out the letter from the envelope and couldn’t wait to read it. At first, he only looked a little anxious, but as time passed, his expression changed.
He seemed to be extremely shocked and angry, and even his facial features were a little distorted. Seeing him like this, the guard did not even dare to breathe loudly. A moment later, Fu Xiuyi suddenly placed one hand on the table and flipped it over.
