Chapter 2155 Never Left the House

She didn't believe that Bai Shijie and his wife and the servants in the yard were still in the mood to play by the lotus pond, and they were playing in the water.

After receiving the order, Captain Gao gave the order.

Gu Xin looked up and shouted, "Bai Yi."

Soon, a white-clad man in white floated down from the roof.

Gu Xin: "Did you find anything?"

Bai Yi shook his head: "No. I went to find everyone who had met King Donglin in the past few months. They didn't meet King Donglin on April 30th."

Gu Xin frowned.

King Donglin went out quietly without anyone to play with. What did he do? Or did he not go out at all, but stayed in the palace all the time?

Gu Xin was more inclined to the latter.

In such a large palace, even if someone was behind the scenes, it was impossible that no one saw him go out and see him go home.

King Donglin was not an unknown person. He had a good reputation in Taizhou. Except for the ignorant children, many people knew him.

She asked Bai Yi and Bai Er to go out and ask for a whole afternoon, but no one had seen him.

Doesn't that mean that the King of Donglin is more likely to be at home?

Gu Xin returned to the study. She had already looked at the inner room. Except for the window, everything else was normal. She started to look at the study again.

The books on the bookshelf were also neatly arranged. Moreover, these books were not just for show. Gu Xin picked a few books from each row to read. The books were not only not new, but also had a lot of notes on them.

Gu Xin had also heard Gu Shouxin tell Gu En about some books about imperial examination questions. She could understand them, so she could also see that if Bai Shijie participated in the imperial examination, as long as he had good luck, he would be able to get a good ranking with his knowledge.

From this point of view, the princess's words about the King of Donglin changing his mind and wanting Bai Shijie to participate in the imperial examination and let Bai Laoer inherit the title were also traceable.

Gu Xin found another secret compartment on the bookshelf. After opening it, there was a pile of letters inside, about twenty or so.

The handwriting on the envelope is the same as the handwriting on the notes in the book. This should be written by Bai Shijie.

However, there is no name on the envelope, only the date and year, and the envelopes are placed one by one according to the time.

Gu Xin opened it and read it.

Bai Shijie is a talented person. In each letter, he wrote about his longing for his father. This can be said to be written to the deceased Prince of Donglin, or it can be said to be Bai Shijie's own diary.

Gu Xin has written a diary before, and she also regards it as her own secret. Basically, no one has read it.

The content inside is full of the longing and guilt of a son who lost his father for his deceased father, as well as the oath.

From the letter, Gu Xin can know that the late Prince of Donglin had expectations for his son. His expectation is that his son can take the imperial examination. Even if he does not enter the court as an official in the end but returns home to inherit the title, he must take the exam once to prove himself.

Bai Shijie may not study hard when he was a child. He repented after his father died. Every letter is very touching.

Gu Xin could even imagine an elegant, sickly, and serious father from the letters. Even though she had never met the Prince of Donglin, Gu Xin felt that this person was very familiar.

Bai Shijie's writing was really good, allowing her to completely immerse herself in the story.

In these letters, in addition to expressing his longing for his father, Bai Shijie also wrote about other people in the palace, but not as many as his father.
