Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 457
"girl--"

She licked her lips, unable to speak.

Shen Xi's hand finally stopped on the railing, looking at the turbid water, her brows and eyes were cold from the side, like a statue placed here.

Qi Jiu was finally defeated, and said: "On the Xu family cemetery, when the girl passed out, I saw him crying on the back. At that time, I was suspicious, but I still didn't dare to say it later.

"Until the girl asked me to check Liu Menglan, I ran into him in Nancheng by accident."

He cried?
Shen Xi's fingers felt a little cold.

"What is he going to Nancheng for?" She stopped talking, her voice a little hoarse.

"At that time, he was mixed with a bunch of Helian people and asked about Prince An's mansion. He changed his face, but I still recognized him."

Qi Jiu's palms were sweaty. Tie Ying's policy was not to conceal and betray the Lord, but she violated it in this matter.

"When I was following him, he caught him. I accidentally found out that he is super strong in martial arts. Then I recalled his performance in the Xu Family Cemetery and your suspicions, so I asked him directly.

"He kept it a secret at first, but then I threatened him that if he didn't tell the truth, he would come back and tell you, and then he said it. But I told you that I must never tell you, otherwise I will be dealt with according to the Great Qin Military Law."

She looked up at Shen Xi.Now she discovered it by herself, shouldn't she be the one who told it?
Shen Xi stared at the stone outside the fence and remained silent.

He is at the Prince Cha-an Mansion.

Expected.

He has a whole body of ability, how could he be willing to be a Tuoba person?

What happened in the past was also related to the Great Qin's overthrow of the country. As the eldest son of An Guogong's mansion who was in charge of the Chinese military's governor's mansion, he would definitely want to find out the truth.

But he had the heart to hide everything from her.

That day in the other courtyard, she could clearly hear his words "A Ying" in the noisy voice, and even though his expression was normal after entering the door, she was already sure.

She didn't expose it for a long time.

Once determined, he dared not move forward.

Not worrying about yourself, but worrying about him.

She suddenly understood why Xiao Huai fought with He Lanzhun in the first place, and why he lied for him that he had someone else he liked.

It turned out that all of them knew about it, but they only kept it from her.

It's ridiculous that she was still worried that Xiao Huai would not accept it if he found out.

"Girl—how did you find out?" Qi Jiu asked anxiously.

Shen Xi's expression became indifferent again.

"On the night when I came back from Bi Mansion, when Pearl returned without success."

Qi Jiu was slightly taken aback.

"I thought Liu Menglan was sent by Xu Jing to come to my side. So I asked Pearl to go to Xu's cemetery disguised as me. I thought that if he knew from Liu Menglan that I was going out at night, he would definitely follow her.

"However, he never came. The guards didn't find anyone following him. Later I found out that he stayed in Yulan Temple that night, which is strange."

Qi Jiu thought of her various actions that night, and sweat suddenly appeared on her forehead.

"If Liu Menglan belonged to him, she would definitely tell him.

"And he didn't move, there are only two reasons, one is that he didn't know that such a thing would happen, that is, he didn't put anyone beside me.

"The second is that he installed someone, but this person told him that the one sitting in the carriage was Pearl, not the truth about me.

"Only a few of you knew about this at the time."

Qi Jiu raised her hand to wipe off her sweat, and said, "Why does that girl only suspect that her subordinates—"

"Didn't you realize it yourself?"

She said: "Every time I suspect that He Lanzhun is Xu Jing, you will always do everything possible to convince me. Moreover, you are the only one who knows my relationship with Xu Jing in the entire Minxiangyuan."

She turned around and looked at her quietly: "Tell me, what did he ask you to do?"

For the first time in her life, Qi Jiu felt that her knees were a little weak. She took half a step back and knelt down on one knee: "It's nothing else, just ask my subordinates to send a message when the girl is in danger, and then help cover the cover...

"The subordinates who should not say anything else never confide a word! If there is a half word of falsehood, let the subordinates bear the pain of five horses!"

Shen Xi took two steps around her, and sneered: "It's very good."

Qi Jiu didn't dare to look up.

But for a long time, she didn't see any more words from her.

Just when she thought she had to keep kneeling like this, the skirt around her moved, and a voice came out: "First of all, since Liu Menglan is not from He Lan, there must be someone behind him. You go and find out if he is there or not." Heirs or relatives, where is the whereabouts.

"Secondly, the water in the Taifu's residence is deep, and it's not just us who are suspicious of his origin. This time he came out of the mountain, I'm afraid he didn't take the initiative to do it, but was forced by the situation.

"With regard to Han Dun's matter, if the prince hadn't stepped in, the prince would have won it, but he stepped in and won so beautifully, which invisibly affected the court situation, so that Mrs. Bi had to come out to balance the situation.

"My lord's actions may not only be aimed at the Han family, but directly at this Master Fu.

"The prince's motive for targeting him needs to be figured out. The Taifu's motive also needs to be figured out."

Qi Jiu could only bow his head and say yes.

Shen Xi walked around her completely, went down the stone steps to the lake, bent down and picked up a wild lotus that came ashore.

He said: "Finally, go and ask Xu Jing if he remembers seeing a hexagonal scar on someone's wrist when he was with me. Then ask him to try to get Zhou Qian out of prison.

"Besides, my hunch is that Zhou Qian's appearance may have hidden meanings. Let him be careful."

Zhou Qian is a Helian person, and it is also true that he helped her, but why he happened to appear at the right time when Han Dun was about to deal with her is inexplicable.

She wanted to talk to him and Xiao Huai about many things, but since he didn't want to recognize her, then let's pass on the message.

Qi Jiuquan responded.

It was early morning when we returned to the mansion.

In the early morning of the next day, under the escort of several purple-clothed guards, Mu took Han Xu and Han Dun's coffins to Xichuan.

So far, the matter of the Han family has been settled.

Shen's mansion is gradually entering the period of preparation for marriage, and the official history of Wang's mansion sent two nuns under the order of King Yan to teach Shen Xi about matters after entering the mansion - including bed matters.

This really made Shen Xi a little embarrassed, but the nuns looked very serious, as if this was as normal as dressing and eating.

Recently, Xiao Huai has relieved most of his military affairs, and he is also wholeheartedly preparing for his marriage.

The wedding room was still set at Zhaoyang Palace, he had asked Shen Xi for his opinion before, and Shen Xi didn't have much request for this, Zhaoyang Palace was fine.

The eunuch in the respect room was in charge of teaching him about the affairs of the bed. Although the Xiao family was not a clan relative, they were also meritorious kings above all the princes.

Since there are servants and maids in the palace, it is not a big deal for the respect room to be in charge of grooming the groom.

But in front of this prince, they did not dare to be too presumptuous.

Xiao Huai leaned on the Arhat's bed with a calm face and let them talk, until finally he uttered a sentence: "How can I make the concubine Shizi suffer less?"
