The thing that could make these two people so nervous must be something extraordinary!
The eyes of the three of them darkened.
Xiao Lingyu raised an eyebrow: "What are you doing..."
"Censor Jiang was waiting for me wholeheartedly, but I became angry with him. Just now, I felt that I shouldn't have done that, so now I am apologizing to Censor Jiang."
Xiao Yanli said as he pinched it.
Xiao Chuji had nothing to say and could only say, "Me too."
Jiang Zhiyu coughed lightly and said, "I have apologized, but this gift..."
The hand that was squeezing stopped suddenly.
Jiang Kang'an looked at Xiao Yanli's hand warily - it was only a finger's distance away from Jiang Zhiyu's neck.
He secretly gathered his internal strength to ensure that if Xiao Yanli attacked, he would be one step ahead of him.
But Xiao Yanli didn't.
After a pause, he said softly, "I just got out of prison and have nothing on me. I'll send someone to deliver it to you when I get back home."
Xiao Chuji agreed: "Me too."
【Yo, Zhang Fei's Quotations! 】
The reason why Xiao Yanli and Xiao Chuji were so nervous was that they were afraid that she would use this booklet to frame them with false charges and then instigate the emperor to put them in prison.
Having just been released from the imperial prison, they didn't want to go back to that damn place.
Secondly, they had secretly seen the contents of the booklet. Apart from the exaggerations by Jiang Zhiyu, the crimes of smuggling and human trafficking against the enemy country recorded in it were real.
The details inside were so lifelike, as if she had seen it with her own eyes.
Although I don’t know where Jiang Zhiyu collected the clues, if this booklet is handed over to the emperor and seen by him, everything will be over!
When they thought of this result, Xiao Chuji and Xiao Yanli felt a chill all over their bodies.
The best solution is of course to silence him, but they can't kill Jiang Zhiyu, so they have to find another way.
First, find a way to detain the person. When you return home, send someone to erase the evidence recorded in the booklet. Then, find a way to destroy the booklet.
Before all this was done, not only could they not touch Jiang Zhiyu, they also had to coax her!
When they thought of this, the two of them felt very depressed.
Compared to the curiosity of others, the emperor seemed much calmer.
After all, he should know what he wanted to know. When Jiang Zhiyu was working in the Imperial Study, he had already heard most of it from Jiang Zhiyu's inner thoughts.
There was the most news about Xiao Yanli, but very little news about Xiao Chuji.
However, just because he had poisoned Jiang Kang'an before, Jiang Zhiyu would definitely not let him go.
A rebellious son and a group of loyal and capable ministers.
No matter which emperor it is, he will not make the wrong choice.
…
After receiving the news that the Sixth Prince was released from prison, Song Shiwei waited in front of the door early. After waiting for a long time, a familiar carriage drove up to the corner of the street.
Song Shiwei's eyes lit up.
The carriage slowly stopped, and Song Shiwei went forward to greet him: "Your Highness..."
Xiao Yanli waved his hand as he got off the carriage and instructed the person beside him: "Go and invite Mr. Zhang to my study."
After giving the order, he looked at Song Shiwei and said, "I have something important to deal with. You go back first. I'll be there later."
Song Shiwei lowered his head to suppress the bitterness in his heart, and replied in a deep voice, "Okay."
When she looked up again, Xiao Yanli was no longer in sight.
"Your Highness, are you saying that Jiang Zhiyu has recorded all the goods we smuggled to Mobei and Nangu, as well as the secret passages and the like?!"
Uncle Zhang said with a slight hesitation.
"I saw it with my own eyes, it can't be fake," Xiao Yanli said quickly. "Give orders to erase all traces. The secret passage cannot be used for the time being. Block it with anything you can find. If anyone really finds it, blow it up and leave no one alive."
Uncle Zhang was shocked. Although he felt a little distressed, this was the best solution at the moment.
He replied yes.
"You go guard the south. We're going to fight the Southern Gu soon. Perhaps Jiang Zhiyu wants to use that place. I trust you the most with this matter. If you really see her, find a way to blow up both her and the secret passage. If that doesn't work, just blow up the secret passage."
Uncle Zhang nodded: "Then that booklet..."
"Jiang Kang'an is in charge of the Xu Mansion, and there are people sent by He Yanting to guard the side. It's impossible to hide inside. Erase the clues first. I will find another opportunity to think of a solution."
Xiao Yanli pinched his eyebrows, obviously having a severe headache.
Uncle Zhang bowed and said, "I understand. I will leave tonight."
Xiao Yanli nodded.
At the same time, in the Second Prince’s Mansion, Xiao Chuji also gave orders.
He pondered for a moment, dismissed his attendants, and went alone into the dungeon hidden in the rockery.
The road leading to the dungeon was already filled with a strong fragrance, even a bit smelly, which gave people a headache.
Xiao Chuji tightly held the veil on her face and walked quickly.
Entering the dungeon, the fragrance filled the air. Xiao Chuji placed a small bottle on the table and said to the person who was adjusting the spices, "Go to Xu's house and find me a booklet. This is yours."
The man paused and turned around.
He had an extremely ordinary appearance, but the scar running through his cheek made him look even more terrifying.
He picked up the bottle, opened it, and smelled it, his eyes filled with fascination.
"What booklet?"
"This is the map of the Xu Mansion. It only shows the front yard. You can't enter the backyard, so you have to find it on your own. Find this person. The booklet is in her hands. It doesn't matter if she's dead or alive."
Xiao Chuji finished speaking in one breath, threw the portrait in his hand to him, and without waiting for his response, he held his breath and walked out.
After leaving the dungeon, the fragrance on his body lingered for a long time.
"Come, prepare some water, I want to take a bath."
Two servants came forward and said yes, their nostrils twitching slightly.
Smelling the source of the fragrance, the two men fixed their eyes on Xiao Chuji, and they were actually obsessed with wanting to devour him.
One of them couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, you smell so good."
Xiao Chuji: "..."
He flicked his finger, and a silver needle pierced the man's throat. The smell of blood brought the other man back to his senses, and his face turned pale. "Your Highness, I'll go right away, I'll go right away."
As he spoke, he ran forward in a panic.
Even though his companion had just died in front of him, he couldn't help but take a few more breaths when passing by Xiao Chuji.
It smells so good...
Xiao Chuji naturally noticed his behavior and frowned.
It seems that his spices have improved a lot.
…
The Xu family is particularly busy tonight.
There were no less than ten corpses piled outside the wall, but there were not many inside the mansion, only one person.
Jiang Kang'an used the hilt of his sword to poke the corpse and cut open all the clothes on the corpse. After several attempts, he still couldn't find anything that could prove the corpse's identity.
"Burn it, leave some traces, and watch it to see if anyone comes looking for it."
The servants dragged the body back.
After nightfall, it was the third group of people who arrived. Their strength was not that great. If they were smart, they were definitely not smart enough to break into Xu's house at night.
What can be done by sending these people?
