"Who sent the letter this morning?" she asked. "In the bustling capital, where people come and go, it's quite difficult to find this particular person."
Chu Heng took out the letter and handed it to her.

"I've already sent people back to investigate," Chu Heng said naturally, serving her another bowl of fish soup.
Ye Muyu had no appetite for soup, "I don't know how Ah Sheng and Ah Zhang are doing. Someone has even schemed around the imperial examinations; they must be targeting us."
"They were indeed quick-witted. No news of cheating has come out from South Origin Prefecture, which shows that the information in the letter is true."
