Arriving in Qingzhou 5

Jiang Yeqian continued, "There were many people on the streets at noon. We didn't return to his residence in secrecy either. Those powerful people were definitely watching us. So, those people who had come to visit with gifts the moment we passed through the gates must have been prepared in advance."

Si Jin's eyes widened as he listened to Jiang Yeqian's analysis.

Qi Qingyao asked as she held back her jaw from dropping in astonishment, "Why didn't they visit him in Baishui Town before this?"

"Many people knew Heir Pei lived in the mansion in Baishui Town, but they also knew that Heir Pei was on the brink of death, so of course no one bothered with him. During this time, despite the news that he had been cured of the poison he had consumed by a miraculous physician, everyone still did not dare to disturb him," he said very calmly.

"You still haven't said why they didn't dare visit him." Qi Qinyao pressed on.
