2155 Chapter 2155-never left the house
She did not believe that Bai Shijie and his wife, as well as the servants in the courtyard, would still be in the mood to play by the Lotus pond at this time, let alone play in water.
After receiving the order, Constable Gao gave his orders.
Bai Yi! Gu Xin raised her head and called out.
Very quickly, a white-robed figure floated down from the roof.
“Did you find anything?” Gu Xin asked.
“No,” Bai Yi shook his head. I went to find all the people who have met the king of Dong Lin in the past few months. They didn’t meet the king of Dong Lin on April 30th.”
Gu Xin furrowed her eyebrows.
The king of Donglin didn’t bring anyone with him. He went out quietly and didn’t find anyone to play with. What did he do? Or was it that he had never left the door and had always been in the Wang Residence?
Gu Xin was more inclined to the latter.
In such a large royal residence, even if there was someone behind the scenes manipulating it, it was impossible that no one had seen him go out and go home.
The king of Dong Lin was not a nameless person. He had a good reputation in tai Zhou. Besides the insensible children, many people recognized him.
She had asked the White-clothed and white-two to ask around for the whole afternoon, but no one had seen her.
Didn’t that mean that the king of Dong Lin was more likely to be at home?
Gu Xin returned to the study room. She had already checked out the inner room. Other than the window, the rest of the room was normal. She started looking at the study room again.
The books on the bookshelves were arranged neatly and they were not just for show. Gu Xin picked a few books from each row to read. Not only were the books not new, but there were also many notes on them.
Gu Xin had also heard Gu shouxin’s explanation of the imperial examination questions to Gu en. She could understand them and could tell that if Bai Shijie were to take part in the imperial examination, as long as his luck was not bad, he would definitely be able to get a good ranking with his knowledge.
It seemed that the change of mind of the king of Donglin, as mentioned by the princess Consort, made sense. He wanted Bai Shijie to participate in the imperial examination and let the second Prince inherit the title.
Gu Xin found another hidden compartment on the shelf. After opening it, there was a stack of letters inside. There were about twenty of them.
The handwriting on the envelope was the same as the handwriting on those books. It should be Bai Shijie’s handwriting.
However, there was no name on the envelope, only the date and month. The letters were placed according to the time.
Gu Xin opened it.
Bai Shijie was a talented person. Every letter he wrote was filled with his thoughts of his father. These letters could be said to be written for the deceased Crown Prince of Donglin, or it could also be said to be Bai Shijie’s diary.
The contents of the letter were filled with a son who had lost his father’s thoughts and guilt, as well as an oath.
From the letter, Gu Xin could tell that the late Prince of Dong Lin had high hopes for his son. He hoped that his son could take the Imperial examinations. Even if his son did not become an official in the Imperial court and instead returned home to inherit his title, he must take the examinations to prove himself.
When he was young, Bai Shijie might not have studied hard, and he only repented after his father passed away. Every letter he wrote was very touching.
From the letter, Gu Xin could even imagine a scholarly, sickly, and serious father. Even though she had never met the Crown Prince of Dong Lin, Gu Xin felt that this person was very familiar.
Bai Shijie’s writing style was simply too good, and she could completely immerse herself in it.
In these letters, other than expressing his longing for his father, Bai Shijie would also write about other people in the Wang family, but not as much as his father.
