?Chapter 1116: 541 Scheming Xiao Hen (Second Update) Chapter 1116: 541 Scheming Xiao Hen (Second Update) “`
The courtesan from Xianle Inn, believed to be dead, had suddenly appeared before his own eyes—could there be anything more absurd than this?
If she was Mo Qianxue, then what was the deal with the female corpse lying at the Yamen?
Moreover, Xiao Hen was absolutely certain he had never met Mo Qianxue, so who did Mo Qianxue mistake him for?
In an instant, countless doubts flashed through Xiao Hen’s mind.
A chord in his heart was tightly strung, giving him the feeling that he might have unwittingly stumbled upon some truth.
When Xiao Hen didn’t wish his emotions to be seen, no one could penetrate his facade. He immediately reined in his thoughts, entering a state of acquaintance with Mo Qianxue, “But I heard that the courtesan of Xianle Inn was dead.”
“Just a scapegoat died,” Mo Qianxue said nonchalantly.
This was a very secret matter, yet Mo Qianxue seemed to have no scruples or fear discussing it in front of him.
Xiao Hen watched her, expressionless.
“Ah, it hurts so much, help me up,” Mo Qianxue gasped in pain, reaching out her hand. Xiao Hen didn’t move, but Mo Qianxue only extended it briefly before seeming to remember something, quickly withdrawing her hand, “I can do it myself!”
She bore the pain and moved to sit down on a stool beside the table, then said to Xiao Hen, “Right, why are you here? Last time I saw you, weren’t you an official from the Hanlin Academy? You are not wearing the uniform of Hanlin Academy today.”
Xiao Hen replied, “I was on duty at the Ministry of Justice today.”
Mo Qianxue snorted, “The Ministry of Justice?”
Without betraying any emotion, Xiao Hen said, “Yes, today I was investigating your case. If I had known earlier that you had faked your death, I wouldn’t have bothered.”
Mo Qianxue waved her hand dismissively, “Just investigate casually, don’t take it too seriously, otherwise, I’m afraid you’ll bring trouble upon yourself.”
As if casually, Xiao Hen asked, “What trouble could I attract?”
Mo Qianxue sighed, “Well, it’s a long story. I only have a rough idea myself and don’t know how to explain it clearly to you.”
