Princess Jiaojiao is fierce and charming, making him blush and heartbeat

Chapter 38 Handle
Shi Hong sent the man in black away, and opened the secret letter in the room by the weak candlelight.

The contents of the letter made him frown, and a layer of embarrassment seemed to float in his cloudy eyes.

He put the letter on the table, pressed it tightly with one hand, and leaned back in the armchair.

After a while, he closed his eyes and let out a long breath.

"It's dry, be careful with candles—"

The sound of the beaters mixed with the hollow sound of bamboo clappers echoed throughout the street.

At this time, after the fifteenth day, the moon has already lost a piece, and there is no trace of a star in the dark blue sky. Dark clouds surged up from a distance, covering the only moon, and the entire Meizhou was suddenly shrouded in darkness. middle.

At the same time, Xie Liangyue's room.

Because too many things happened recently, Xie Liangyue couldn't digest for a while, she went back to the room early, wanted to have a good rest, but she couldn't fall asleep because of tossing and turning.

She sat up, leaned against the bed and looked at the closed window, and suddenly thought of something, so she got up and went to the window.

Xie Liangyue opened the window, poked her head out and shouted softly towards the roof.

Immediately afterwards, someone fell from above and appeared in front of her.

After a while, Qiao Ji sat in front of Xie Liangyue, both of them were sad.

"Tell me, is Qi Yujin related to that island?"

Xie Liangyue frowned and asked.

Qiao Ji shook his head, "No, he looks shrewd, but in fact he doesn't have that much ability."

He sighed, and said again: "In the previous life, after he relied on Prince Zhao's Mansion to ascend to power, he relied on his uncle to help him all the way."

"His uncle?" Xie Liangyue frowned, "Wang Shizhong, Minister of the Ministry of Officials? Does he have such great ability?"

Qiao Ji said "hmm": "At first I also thought that Wang Shizhong just wanted to help Qi Yujin fight for the throne, but then something happened, and I realized that this Wang Shizhong is not simple."

"What's the matter?"

"At that time, King Zhao led his army northward to attack foreign barbarians. Not long after he arrived, there was news of a mutiny. The court exploded in an instant. Many ministers and veterans did not believe that King Zhao would make such a betrayal. It was Wang Shizhong. King Zhao was convicted only after the most important evidence was produced."

"The evidence he presented?" Xie Liangyue was even more puzzled.

Qiao Ji nodded and said: "He did not know where to find out the secret letter between King Zhao and the ruler of the foreign barbarians, and after checking and confirming King Zhao's handwriting, he was convicted."

Xie Liangyue was completely stunned, "I have always wondered why Qi Yujin has such a great hatred for our family, and now I don't understand even more. Except for my relationship with Qi Yujin, Prince Zhao's Mansion has never had anything to do with the Wang family. Why did he have to kill my father?"

Seeing Qiao Ji's silence, Xie Liangyue suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Could it be that they have something in the hands of the father?"

The air was still for an instant, and the only thing in the silent night was the chirping of cicadas on the trees outside.

Xie Liangyue was shocked, why didn't she think of it before?

She looked at Qiao Ji and asked in a hoarse voice, "I'm right, right?"

Qiao Ji hesitated for a long time before raising his head, he looked at her with complicated emotions, and nodded after a long time.

Sure enough.

Everything seemed to have a reason, the father held something that was not good for them, and they wanted to kill people to silence them.

"What is it?"

Xie Liangyue asked in a cold voice.

Qiao Ji himself didn't want to tell her so soon, after all, it was too complicated to talk about.

But the current situation does not seem to be optimistic.

He clenched his fists tightly, and his voice was gloomy, as if a voice had been transmitted to Xie Liangyue's ears from afar.

他 说:

"Qi Yujin is not the heir of the emperor."
