Wen Qingzhu felt a little hard to accept: "Everything you did was for Jing Yinuo?"
"Yes." Shen Jiao answered simply.
But this made Wen Qingzhu feel angry out of thin air: "In order to have time to see me, you would rather hasten your death, just for Jing Yinuo!"
Shen Jiao couldn't help but laugh: "Wen Qingzhu, aren't you here just for Fu Lie? There is gunpowder hidden here, as well as the supplies that Jiang Yuancheng had prepared all his life in the past few years. In addition to clearing up future troubles for the emperor, more importantly, For Fu Lie! Everything here is what is most needed on the battlefield!"
Wen Qingzhu said nothing, because that was what she thought in her heart.
Seeing her reaction, Shen Jiao knew that she had made the right bet. She looked into Wen Qingzhu's eyes and said, "One day, you will risk everything for one person, even if you give up your own life, and Jing Yinuo is the one I can give." Everything, people who gave their lives.”
"But you are dead, how do you know that Jing Yinuo will be grateful to you?" Wen Qingzhu had experienced his previous life and was broken into pieces by Jiang Yuancheng.
So now she knows that she likes Fu Lie very much, but she still keeps calm.
Death is like a lamp going out, everything is gone.
Shen Jiao just looked at her and smiled, with satisfaction, peace of mind, and a hint of regret in her smile.
Wen Qingzhu disagreed with Shen Jiao's approach because she and Jing Yinuo had met before, and in his heart, Shen Jiao's cousin did not occupy a very important position.
Shen Jiao looked at Wen Qingzhu's eyes with confusion, as if she saw herself in the past.
But she didn't persuade Wen Qingzhu anymore because she felt her heartache was getting worse and she didn't have much time left.
Shen Jiao looked at the man being escorted beside her and said, "His name is Feitian. It was Jiang Yuancheng who gave him the name. No one knows what his original name was. You can also tell from his name that he can fly and escape from the earth. There is a sister who is suffering from a strange disease. If you can save her sister, she can be used by you."
"Did you convince him?" Wen Qingzhu was surprised.
According to Jiang Yuancheng's personality, except for those who arrange the deployment, people like Feitian who are just tools at first sight will theoretically not know her information.
The Feitian had a chance to escape just now, but he chose to be caught.
That meant Shen Jiao had convinced him.
Wen Qingzhu's mood became more and more complicated. She looked at Feitian and said, "I can help you look after your sister, but I can't guarantee that she can be cured."
"Yeah." Feitian responded.
Shen Jiao finally felt relieved, things went more smoothly than she imagined.
Then there is no need to take out the Shen family's jade plaque.
She began to tell Wen Qingzhu about Jiang Yuancheng.
Wen Qingzhu listened carefully, becoming more frightened as she listened, but she always remained calm on her face.
Slowly, Shen Jiao began to cough up blood, and her speech became more and more incoherent: "The latest deployment is in the northwest. He has contacted the Xiongnu. At the same time, Dingyuan has also made preparations. There is a high probability that it will still be there." Among businessmen... ahem!"
Shen Jiao couldn't breathe anymore. She couldn't say anything more. She grabbed Wen Qingzhu's sleeve and looked at her steadily: "Cousin! Save cousin! He has always believed in you. It's me. It's all mine." Wrong, it was my disbelief that led to the current result. Cousin, cousin, he has always been very—"
After exhaling in one breath, Shen Jiao could no longer breathe in, and her voice stopped suddenly.
His chest stood up straight, his eyes widened with both unwillingness and joy.
Shen Jiao slowly tilted her head. The moment her breathing stopped, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated and then stopped.
She just lay on the ground, her hands still holding Wen Qingzhu's sleeves, her eyes blank, looking straight at the sky.
Wen Qingzhu took a deep breath and covered Shen Jiao's eyes with his back.
She stood up and ordered someone to carry Shen Jiao on her back.
Turning to look at Feitian next to him, Wen Qingzhu signaled Beidou to let go.
Feitian was freed immediately, stood up, looked at Wen Qingzhu quietly and said, "Do you need me to bring my sister?"
"Where is your sister?" Wen Qingzhu asked subconsciously.
Feitian frowned, obviously still distrusting her.
Wen Qingzhu understood and changed his mind: "I am leaving Beijing soon and will go back to Dingyuan in the northwest, around the end of July. Then you can take your sister to Dingyuan."
"Okay." Feitian answered simply.
Suddenly he stood and looked east, his ears twitched involuntarily, and he said loudly: "The ghost chaser is coming! I have to avoid it!"
Before Wen Qingzhu looked over, a gust of wind came out of thin air around him, fallen leaves swirled down, and Feitian's figure disappeared.
Wen Qingzhu watched this scene with concentration, while Beidou next to him was full of vigilance.
Not long after, a rustling sound came from the east.
Soon a masked man appeared in front of them in a miserable state.
Wen Qingzhu looked at those eyes. Wasn't this the masked man who tried to use Jiang Yuanan to kill Jiang Yuanhan that day
"It's you!"
The masked man stopped at a safe distance and his eyes fell on Shen Jiao.
Because they were too far away, he was not sure whether Shen Jiao was still alive.
Hearing Wen Qingzhu's voice, he came back to his senses and said, "The Fu family army is indeed well-deserved! It's just that Fu Lie was captured! Why are you struggling to do this?"
"Prisoner? Do you think Fu Lie will be captured?" Wen Qingzhu's tone was full of mockery, and his face was full of disdain.
Seeing how confident she was, the masked man felt nervous.
He had to confirm whether Shen Jiao was dead, or even if she was not dead, she still had to be killed!
This woman is very extraordinary, she has unknowingly bribed his most trusted subordinate!
If he hadn't been alert just now, he might have died in the hands of Fu Jiajun!
Wen Qingzhu looked at the Shen family, then at the masked man, and said without hesitation: "Here comes someone! Kill him!"
Before he finished speaking, Fu Jiajun and Beidou took action immediately.
When the masked man saw their formation, he immediately judged that a head-on attack would only lead to death.
He turned around and ran away without hesitation, his speed was staggering.
But obviously Wen Qingzhu didn't intend to pursue him. This man's ability to escape last time was quite surprising.
"return!"
Everyone stopped and turned back.
Back at the villa, Lu Tao and the others had already opened all the secret rooms, because Chi Yu had brought people over and their things were almost sorted.
"Princess! Master Chi is here!" Lu Tao ran over and pointed at the door.
Wen Qingzhu raised his eyes and said with a smile, "I'll have to trouble Mr. Chi for the next thing."
When Chi Yu saw the Fu Jiajun behind Wen Qingzhu, he immediately became respectful: "No matter what the princess orders, I will do my best!"
In the evening, Chi Yu led the army to escort Wen Qingzhu down the mountain.
Jiang Yuanhan sent Wu Mian to greet him.
"Is the princess okay?" As soon as Wu Mian saw her, he immediately looked at her carefully.
Wen Qingzhu got off the horse and went up to explain: "Fortunately, I wanted to have some fun, but I didn't expect to encounter some powerful assassins. Fortunately, I set off the signal bomb, and Chi Yu and the others arrived in time, so I was safe and sound."
Wu Mian was slightly relieved, but he still felt strange. He glanced at Chi Yu and saw that his smile was as fake as usual.
Thinking of the emperor's instructions, he pointed to the car behind him and said: "The emperor is worried that he cannot come to greet him in person. It is actually because of the busy government affairs and the dispute between Prime Minister Wei and Prime Minister Pei, so he sent his servants here."
"Mr. Faceless, you are polite. You should have protected the emperor, but you left the palace because of me. It really shouldn't have happened. I will speak to the emperor properly when I go back this time."
Wen Qingzhu walked forward while replying to his words.
After getting in the car, Wu Mian suddenly asked: "Where is Miss Xi'er? Didn't she come with you?"
Lu Tao in the car was about to lower the curtain, but stopped when he saw him asking.
Wen Qingzhu sounded worried: "The assassin this time is a bit powerful. Beidou is injured. I asked Xi'er to stay and take care of him and come back tomorrow."
"Is that so?" Wu Mian glanced at the back of the army, and it seemed that someone was indeed following them.
Without asking any more questions, Wu Mian ordered the car to start.
When we returned to the palace, the sky was already filled with stars.
Wen Qingzhu originally wanted to go directly to Qianyuan Palace, but thinking about what happened today, Jiang Yuanhan would definitely not be unscathed.
She changed her words and asked, "Is Mingxuan in the palace?"
"Yes, Mr. Wen is over at Qingning Palace. But the princess wants to see him?" Wu Mian thought she would go see the emperor, but he didn't want to say anything wrong.
Wen Qingzhu frowned, his expression a little complicated.
After a long while, he said to Wu Mian: "Go back and explain to the emperor that I have something urgent to do with Mingxuan, and I will go see him tomorrow."
"Okay." Wu Mian nodded and watched Wen Qingzhu's sedan chair heading towards Qingning Palace.
Back at Qianyuan Palace, Jiang Yuanhan was getting ready.
Wu Mian stepped forward to stop him: "Your Majesty, please rest quickly! If the princess is in an emergency, she will go find Mr. Wen first."
Jiang Yuanhan was startled: "She went to find Brother Mingxuan first?"
"Yes." Wu Mian then repeated Wen Qingzhu's explanation.
These words made Jiang Yuanhan have a bad suspicion in his heart. Did his sister discover something
After lying down again, Xiao Fangzi breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Wu Mian's eyes.
Suddenly Jiang Yuanhan asked: "What assassin did sister encounter today?"
"The princess didn't go into details, but when she arrived, my servant asked Chi Yu. He said he was an assassin with great Qinggong skills and was pressing forward step by step. When Chi Yu and the others arrived, they retreated without hesitation."
As soon as he said this, Jiang Yuanhan felt even heavier. His sister must have known something!
At Qingning Palace, Wen Qingzhu first asked about Wei Qinglin's recent situation, and finally called Wen Mingxuan into the pavilion to chat alone.
"Shen Jiao is dead."
"She, she's dead?" Wen Mingxuan was shocked. He had previously worked in Kangcheng, so he knew a lot about things there.
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "She chose to take refuge at the last moment and told me a lot of news about Jiang Yuancheng. Fu Lie is now in a very dangerous situation. I must leave as soon as possible."
"But the emperor won't agree." Wen Mingxuan felt very hesitant when he thought of Jiang Yuanhan's recent state.
Wen Qingzhu naturally took this into consideration. Considering that he was still injured and that he seemed to be eager to prove something, everything in the palace was also taken care of.
The most important thing is that Fan Rong has been missing recently, and Wen Qingzhu suspects that he and the emperor may be planning something.
Wen Qingzhu considered it carefully and said, "I guess the emperor might personally lead the expedition."
"What!" Wen Mingxuan couldn't help but lost his voice, he was too shocked.
After reacting, he hurriedly asked: "He was so seriously injured! How can he still lead the expedition in person!"
Wen Qingzhu looked at him with a 'surely so' look on his face: "So you already knew."
Wen Mingxuan suddenly became impatient: "Sister, I didn't mean to lie to you! The emperor asked me to lie to you! He... he is really working hard to change! He wants to let sister know that he is different!"
Seeing how he defended Jiang Yuanhan, Wen Qingzhu glanced at the main room and suddenly asked: "Has the Emperor decided to make things happen for you and Linlin?"
