Qin Rong smiled playfully and asked, "How do you know it's a scam?"
Tang Xiaobai looked at her in surprise, "Isn't it obvious?" He held the letter up to her.
The letter contained only two short sentences—
"Qin Xiao is in my hands. Meet at the tea house in Yanshou Village."
How ridiculous!
"Ah Xiao just parted from us. From here to the Imperial Palace, the way is filled with officials on their way to court, and he is accompanied by Mo Ji. How could he fall into someone else's hands?" She thought for a moment, feeling there was only one possibility, "Either this letter was written by His Majesty the Emperor!"
How could the Emperor do something so petty?
Tang Xiaobai snorted, "Don't people do their homework before attempting a scam?" Then he sincerely reassured Qin Rong, "This kind of trick is targeted at family members, using asymmetrical information and familial concern to deceive. Don't be fooled! Ah Xiao is attending the Grand Court Assembly, nothing will happen!"
