Chapter 409: All My Words
Xiao Yanli gulped down a few gulps of cold tea.
At this point, it didn't matter who arranged the assassination or whether the flying knife was from Xiao Chuji. What mattered was where Song Shiwei was now.
Thinking of this, everyone's eyes were fixed on Xiao Yanli.
After leaving the palace, Song Shiwei stayed in the prince's mansion and didn't even go back to the prime minister's mansion. Now that he was not there, Xiao Yanli was the most suspicious.
Xiao Chuji turned the Buddhist beads in his hand, and there was no lack of malice in his voice: "It has come to this, why are you still hiding it, Sixth Brother? Let Miss Song come out and meet people, and this farce will be over."
Xiao Yanli didn't know what he was thinking, and he said in a flat tone: "What are you talking about, Second Brother? What do you mean I'm hiding it? Shi Wei's whereabouts are unknown, I am more anxious than anyone else."
Jiang Zhiyu rolled his eyes.
[Why don't you turn around and look before you say this? ]
[Her skirt is exposed! ]
[I was wrong, the hero is still very tolerant of the heroine. He didn't blame her for screwing up the plan, and it's okay if he didn't blame her, but he didn't even send someone to watch her. ]
[True love, locked up! 】
Xiao Lingyu and He Yanting paused, and looked up, and saw that Xiao Yanli's green dress was exposed behind the screen.
Song Shiwei was still listening to their conversation with her ears erect, not knowing that she had been exposed.
Xiao Yanli was still passionate: "Those assassins must have taken advantage of the wedding in the mansion, kidnapped Shiwei in the chaos, and killed the maids to try to confuse the real with the fake."
Jiang Zhiyu pouted his face with his hands.
【No, let me ask, there is not even a red ribbon in the whole mansion, and there are only two red lights hanging at the door. Is this all that troublesome?】
In order to prevent Xiao Yanli from continuing to lie and waste time, and to protect his ears, Jiang Zhiyu snapped his fingers, and Song Shiwei suddenly fell out from behind the screen.
"Ouch!"
Song Shiwei couldn't help but yelled, knowing that she had made a big mistake. She got up and stood aside with her head down, not daring to say a word.
Xiao Lingyu and He Yanting already knew of her existence, so they were not surprised.
The only two people who reacted the most were Xiao Yanli and Xiao Chuji.
Xiao Yanli stood up directly.
He stared at her, his face sank, and his eyes became more angry.
Xiao Chuji stared at them with the eyes of a beast that had discovered its prey, with a half-smile in his eyes.
Now is a critical period, and Xiao Yanli's handle was delivered to his hands like this, and it was really effortless to get it.
He was about to make a few threats, but he heard Jiang Zhiyu on the side sneer.
"'Missing', 'confusing the real with the fake'?"
"Who is this person in front of us? Did Song Shiwei escape from the assassins cleverly? Or is this not the real Song Shiwei, but just a maid wearing a human skin mask?"
Jiang Zhiyu's words were eerie, but they also accurately blocked the excuse that Xiao Yanli had just come up with.
Xiao Yanli choked and looked at Jiang Zhiyu with dissatisfaction.
Jiang Zhiyu was not afraid at all, and was quite leisurely to fill him in on his psychological activities:
[She said all my words! ]
His tone was ups and downs.
Xiao Lingyu: "..."
He Yanting: "..."
The two of them had distorted expressions at the same time. Xiao Lingyu rubbed his ears, trying to rub out the devilish words, and whispered: "The assassination in the street is an indisputable fact. I will send someone to investigate it."
Xiao Chuji's expression froze.
Before Xiao Yanli had time to be happy, he heard Xiao Lingyu say again: "As for you, sixth brother, what is your plan for today's farce? You must tell me everything."
Xiao Yanli's expression fell immediately.
Xiao Lingyu now has the power to supervise the country. Even if the two were unwilling, they had to at least make it through on the surface, so they all responded awkwardly.
"After you two present your complaints, I will tell you everything. Whether you are telling the truth or a lie, you two can decide for yourselves."
Jiang Zhiyu also chimed in: "That's right, if you are lying, I will arrest both of you and throw you into jail."
It was rare to hear such childish words from her, which were appropriate for her age. He Yanting and Xiao Lingyu could not help but look at her a few more times, their eyes full of smiles.
[Then the looted insects will have a place to be used.
[Even if the male protagonist is blessed by heaven, he will not be bitten by insects, after all, it is reasonable for insects to appear in jail. 】
Xiao Lingyu: "..."
He Yanting: "..."
Xiao Yanli and Xiao Chuji didn't smile at all at this moment, and both of them had a look of impending storm. Xiao Lingyu stood up and took the flying knife from Xiao Chuji, and finally said: "I will only give you one day. Tomorrow at this time, I will see your petition."
After he finished speaking, he turned and left.
Jiang Zhiyu and He Yanting also stood up and left.
Xiao Chuji looked at Xiao Yanli, then at Song Shiwei. His eyes were struggling fiercely, as if he was thinking about something. When Xiao Yanli looked at him vigilantly, he pinched the Buddhist beads in his hand again, turned and left.
The room suddenly became quiet.
Song Shiwei nervously observed Xiao Yanli's expression, and when she saw that he was not as angry as she imagined, she spoke carefully: "Yanli, I didn't mean it..."
Xiao Yanli raised his hand before she finished speaking, a gesture that could not be questioned, and then he shouted: "Where are the people, are they all dead?!"
Two people rushed in and knelt on the ground, trembling with fear.
"I told you to keep an eye on the people, and this is how you watched?"
The two begged for mercy: "Master, please spare my life, she deliberately sent me away, and when I reacted, she had already reached the inner hall. I was afraid that I would make a noise and attract attention, so I didn't dare to stop her." He actually
put all the blame on her!
Song Shiwei's eyes were fierce, but disappeared in an instant.
She sobbed a few times, walked to Xiao Yanli's side, sat on his lap, and put her arms around his neck: "You can't blame me, you didn't discuss it with me beforehand, and you knocked me out. When I wake up, I will naturally find you to clarify the whole thing."
Xiao Yanli suppressed his anger and said reluctantly: "I also said that I will explain it to you when I come back."
"I don't want to wait," Song Shiwei retorted: "I've had enough of waiting. I waited in the prime minister's residence, in the prison of the Dali Temple, and in the palace. I've waited long enough. From now on, I don't want to wait anymore."
There was a hint of gloom in her voice, and she looked at Xiao Yanli quietly.
Xiao Yanli also stared at her in silence. After a long while, he sighed as if compromising: "It's my fault. I just wanted to avoid involving you, but I never thought that you were already trapped in the situation."
He raised his hand and touched Song Shiwei's head: "I will let you know before taking action in the future."
Song Shiwei smiled.
