Concubine Fang nodded.0

After sending Concubine Fang off, Xie Changwu returned to the bedroom and paced back and forth in frustration.

It was easy to fob Concubine Fang off. However, now that even Xie Ding started asking about Xie Changchao's whereabouts, things became complicated.

Ever since Xie Changwu returned from the banquet with Xie Ding that day, he had not seen Xie Changchao. If Xie Changchao had something urgent to attend to and left at the last minute, it would be fine, but the person in the secret room was also missing. This really made Xie Changwu panic.

The secret room in the Marquis's Residence was built by Xie Changwu and Xie Changchao themselves, and it took a lot of effort. In the end, the workers who were involved in the construction of the secret room were all wiped out by Xie Changwu, so in the entire world, other than the two of them, no one else knew about its existence.

At first, Xie Changwu thought that Xie Changchao had brought Shen Miao out. Perhaps he had found a way to transport Shen Miao to the brothel, or perhaps he had other plans. However, after waiting for a few days, he heard that Shen Miao had been sent back to the Shen family by Princess Rong Xin. Xie Changwu immediately felt that something was wrong.

If Shen Miao was saved, where did the missing Xie Changchao go? Did those people rescue Shen Miao from the secret room? However, there were no signs of a fight in the secret room, and it was impossible for anyone to know about the secret room. Could it be that when Xie Changchao brought Shen Miao out, he was spotted and Shen Miao was saved? But how did Princess Rong Xin get involved in all of these?

When Princess Ming An found out that Shen Miao had been saved, she flew into a rage and asked Xie Changwu to see her. Xie Changwu could only make up some excuses to appease Princess Ming An for the time being. However, the truth could not be hidden forever.

Xie Changwu was so anxious that the corners of his mouth were blistered. He put on his robe and was about to go and get people to search every corner of the capital again when he suddenly saw a letter on the table.

He did not know who placed this letter on the table, but Xie Changwu had never allowed servants to enter his study. He first looked around warily, but he did not see anyone. He picked up the letter and opened it. What entered his eyes was a familiar handwriting.

It was Xie Changchao's handwriting.

In the letter, Xie Changchao said that he wanted to bring Shen Miao out to look for a brothel that day. Unexpectedly, they encountered soldiers on the way, so they had no choice but to hide in a house by the lake. The news that Shen Miao had returned to the Shen family these days was actually a scam plotted by Shen Xin and Princess Rong Xin. The goal was to make the people who kidnapped Shen Miao let down their guard. On the surface, it looked like the Shen army and soldiers had stopped searching, but in fact, they did not relax at all. Therefore, Xie Changchao did not dare to show up with Shen Miao.

At this moment, Princess Ming An was urging them to take action. It was better to sell Shen Miao to the brothel at Wanli Lake tonight. No matter what, they had to humiliate Shen Miao first. This way, Princess Ming An would be happy. It would be best if Princess Ming An could come in person and watch for herself how Shen Miao was tortured to make up for their mistake.

After reading the letter, Xie Changwu believed 70 to 80% of it.

Firstly, as the letter said, although it was said that Shen Miao was sent back by Princess Rong Xin, she had never shown her face publicly. In other words, no one had seen Shen Miao go back with their own eyes. Why didn't Shen Xin let Shen Miao show her face in public to clarify the rumors? Could it be that Shen Miao had not been found at all?

Secondly, and most importantly, the handwriting on the letter was undoubtedly Xie Changchao's. If there was anyone else who was familiar with Xie Changchao's handwriting and could imitate, it was Xie Jingxing.

However, it was impossible for Xie Jingxing to imitate Xie Changchao's handwriting. Xie Jingxing died on the battlefield two years ago without a corpse.

Xie Changwu thought for a moment and walked to the table. He spread out the paper and started to write.
