Yu Xilin was smart. When he saw that Lin Xiao had believed his words, he knew that he would be wrong if he said more, so he stopped talking.

Lin Xiao, who was blinded by anger, now hated Li Yuyan to the bone!
I wish I could kill this man immediately!
But she didn't dare to act rashly, because Li Yuyan was now the high-ranking Ninth Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty. He held heavy troops and was protected by dozens of guards with superb martial arts and unfathomable abilities.

If she acted rashly, she might not even know how she died.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiao couldn't help but sigh secretly, and his eyes flashed with deep disappointment and sadness.

"A Xiao."

Seeing Lin Xiao's gloomy expression, Yu Xilin's heart trembled. Knowing that his plan to sow discord had worked, he pretended to be concerned and asked: "What's wrong with you?"

Hearing Yu Xilin's words, Lin Xiao came back to his senses, glanced at him with complicated eyes, and shook his head.

Yu Xilin's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and a fierce look flashed under his eyes, which then quickly disappeared and returned to the appearance of a close brother:

"Axiao, if you want to avenge Linjiacun, I can help you!"

He spoke impassionedly and seemed to really intend to help Lin Xiao get revenge.

Hearing this, Lin Xiao raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and a cold light flashed in his eyes:

"Thank you for your kindness, but the time has not come yet, so let's wait for now!"

Lin Xiao, who gradually calmed down, thought over and over what Yu Xilin had just said, but she always felt that something was wrong.

Although Yu Xilin's words were impeccable, she still couldn't figure out why the good-natured Li Yuyan massacred Linjia Village.

Or in other words, what vested interests does he have from massacring Linjia Village?

If, as Yu Xilin said, Li Yuyan massacred the village to frame him, this would be a bit too far-fetched.

As the majestic Ninth Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, Li Yuyan shouldn't be stupid enough to frame him in this way, right?
There must be another reason for this, and she needs to think about it in the long term.

"I'm going back to Beijing, and he must give me an explanation about Linjia Village!"

Lin Xiao gritted her teeth and revealed a fierce look in her eyes, determined and tenacious.

Lin Xiao's attitude made Yu Xilin very satisfied. He patted her shoulder gently and comforted:

"I'll accompany you back to Beijing!"

Hearing this, Lin Xiao refused:
"No, it's enough for me alone. Besides, with your current status, wouldn't you be afraid of a sheep falling into a tiger's mouth if you rashly return to Beijing?"

Seeing that Lin Xiao was worried about him, Yu Xilin felt warm in his heart. His eyes were full of affection and he stared at Lin Xiao seriously.

"I know you are worried about me, don't worry, I have a clever plan!"

Lin Xiao felt uncomfortable under Yu Xilin's eager gaze. She looked away and her voice was slightly stiff:
"Okay, be safe!"

Lin Xiao would never have thought that Yu Xilin's clever plan was to escort the princess to Beijing as a Turkic envoy.

And this marriage princess is none other than Yu Xilin’s right-hand man, Hongye!
Before returning to Beijing, Lin Xiao specially chatted with Gao Jin and others all night.

After careful analysis by several people, everyone agreed that Li Yuyan was framed!

In order to hide better and explore the twists and turns here, Gao Jin and others decided to go to Egret Academy to find Lin Xiaohu on Lin Xiao's suggestion!

It's not because of how powerful Lin Xiaohu is now, but because the Egret Academy is comparable to an intelligence center. As long as you can get in, you can definitely find out the reason for the whole thing!

In order to get Hang Xuan, a talented scholar from Bailu Academy, to help him wholeheartedly, Gao Jin and Lin Xiao wrote down all the poems they had recited and compiled them into a booklet as a meeting gift for Hang Xuan.

The two people's efforts were not in vain, and Hang Xuan couldn't put it down.

Not only did they settle several people, but they also mobilized all their forces to help them explore.

Of course, these are things for later.

Great Xia Dynasty.

Beijing.

The bustling streets are bustling with traffic and bustling people, making it extremely noisy and lively.

Unfortunately, Hao Lian Xiyue had never seen such a lively scene before.

Since she followed Zhang Yue to the capital, she has been placed under house arrest by Li Yuyan in the secret room of the Ninth Prince's Mansion.

Three meals a day are delivered by the maid, so there is no need to worry about food and clothing.

The only thing is that they are not allowed to step out of the secret room.

This kind of life made Hao Lian Xiyue extremely depressed and at the same time, she felt tortured.

She wanted to run away all the time.

But whenever she had such thoughts, Li Yuyan would appear in front of her and stare at her with gloomy and cold eyes.

Those eyes were like quenched poison, filled with bloodthirsty madness, which made Hao Lian Xiyue's hair stand on end.

Over time, Hao Lian Xiyue completely gave up such childish plans.She begged for immortality, hoping that Lin Xiao would know what she was going through and come to save her!

Zhang Yue, who brought Hao Lian Xiyue to the capital, was also very depressed. She went to the Ninth Prince's mansion several times to meet Hao Lian Xiyue, but Li Yuyan gave her weird excuses.

On this day, there was a drizzle in the sky, and the drizzle seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, blocking people's sight.

In the Ninth Prince's mansion, Li Yuyan just came back from doing things outside and went straight to the bedroom.

He walked in a hurry and even forgot to take shelter from the rain.

In the bedroom, candlelight burned faintly, illuminating Li Yuyan's tall and burly silhouette.

His face was covered with a shadow, making it difficult to see what he was thinking.

Li Yuyan stood still at the door, looking up at the water drops dripping from the eaves, his eyes becoming more and more obscure.

He turned around and walked to the window sill, sat on the carved chair, and raised his hand to take off the hat.

At this moment, his angular face was exposed in the light of the lantern, and he was unparalleledly handsome.

He looked up at the dark night outside the window, feeling an inexplicable irritation in his heart, and an uncontrollable sadness flowing between his brows.

Li Yuyan slowly closed his eyes and let the rain wet his hair, dripping down his temples and onto his chest.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Yuyan opened his eyes, with a hint of exhaustion in his eyes.

"Brother Yan is back?"

A sweet and delicate female voice came, and then, a young girl wearing a goose-yellow palace skirt came.

Behind her was a maid carrying a tray.

Li Yuyan raised his head and looked at the pretty girl, his face brightened slightly, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

"Well, Li Li, it's so late, why haven't you rested yet?"

"My aunt knows that Brother Yan is worried about national affairs recently, so she specially ordered Li Li to prepare ginseng soup for Brother Yan to replenish his body."

Mo Li Yingying Fu Shen reminded him softly.

Hearing these words, Li Yuyan felt a sense of guilt in his heart. He took the ginseng soup brought by Mo Li and drank it in one gulp.

"Nanny cares so much about me, Li Qiye, thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard! As long as Brother Yan is healthy and happy, it will be worth it no matter how much Li Qiye does!"

Li Qiye lowered his head and spoke shyly.

Li Yuyan was stunned for a moment, then gave her a relieved smile.

"Okay, it's getting late. You should go back and rest first."

"Okay, Mo Li excuses himself." Mo Li blessed his body respectfully and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute," Li Yuyan suddenly called to Mo Li.

Li Yuyan stopped in confusion and turned to look at Li Yuyan.

"That person in the secret room, are you still making trouble?"

"Let's stop making trouble. Brother Yan, don't worry. Li Qiye will persuade her easily." Li Li lowered his eyes and spoke calmly.

Li Yuyan nodded slightly and signaled Li Moli to leave.

When silence finally returned to the room, Li Yuyan took out the bound book, unfolded it, and read through it.

He did not turn the pages quickly, but slowly, as if he was thinking about something.

After a long time, Li Yuyan put down the booklet and murmured:

"Wang Tuo, you are so good, Mr. Wang"

There was a sarcastic sneer at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were cold and biting.

"Come on!"

Li Yuyan shouted loudly.

The next moment, two guards in fancy attire appeared in front of Li Yuyan, kneeling on one knee and saying:
"Your Majesty, my subordinates are waiting."

Li Yuyan narrowed his eyes and said coldly:
"Close the net."

"Yes!"

The two guards responded and disappeared from the place like lightning. (End of chapter)
