Chapter 353 Joy
Lin Jin was so scared that he collapsed on the ground. His hands were shaking as he looked at the letters. He felt darkness all around him and a fear of dying made him tremble all over!
But Xiao Jin seemed to think that this was not enough. "The day before yesterday, someone teamed up with gangs to kidnap my child. If we hadn't found him in time, the consequences would have been disastrous. Now the thief has been caught and is being held in Jingzhao Yinfu."
Kang Zedi didn't eat anything in the morning but he felt like he was going to be full of anger!
He immediately asked the Jingzhao Yin to come out and ask whether this happened. After the Jingzhao Yin admitted it, he immediately asked him to bring the man into the palace and interrogate him together.
Inside the prison.
Su Ying suddenly opened her eyes and stood up. Chu Mo's heart rose to his throat when he heard the noise.
Soon, the cell door was opened and two officers walked in.
"The Emperor summons you, let's go."
Chu Mo's expression changed slightly when he heard the word "Emperor". Although he quickly restrained himself, Su Ying still caught it at the first moment.
Soon, they were taken outside the palace.
Su Ying walked into the hall and glanced at Xiao Jin. After seeing Xiao Jin blink, she withdrew her gaze.
Chu Mo knelt down as soon as he entered the palace. "Your Majesty, please forgive me. It was the eunuchs who served the eldest prince who found me and others and offered 20,000 taels of silver to buy the lives of the King of Qi and the Queen of Qi. I couldn't resist the temptation of the silver and agreed. I plead guilty and I beg Your Majesty to forgive me this time."
Chu Mo confessed his guilt very quickly, without even giving Kang Zedi time to waste asking questions.
Xiao Jue glared at Chu Mo angrily, "Don't accuse me. I didn't ask you to assassinate Xiao Jin. Who bribed you to come here and accuse me?"
An unfathomable look flashed across Emperor Kangze's eyes, and when he looked at Xiao Jue again, his eyes became even more fierce.
"Xiao Jue, I didn't expect that you not only coveted my throne, but also killed my brothers and sisters. You really disappoint me. Come, bring Xiao Jue to me and execute him soon."
Xiao Jue was stunned, his eyes widened in disbelief. Behead him! Behead him! He was going to be beheaded!
Xiao Jue stood up almost madly, "Your Majesty, you are really old and confused. I didn't bribe anyone to assassinate Xiao Jin and the others. I was wronged. They wronged me! Xiao Jin, you will not die well, you will not die well!"
Xiao Jue's behavior was truly a disgrace to the royal family. Emperor Kangze was so angry that his face turned darker than the bottom of a pot. "What are you still standing there for? Block that mouth and drag him away!"
Seeing that Emperor Kangze's face had changed with anger, Master Zhang and his companions dared not say a word. They could only watch Xiao Jue being dragged out.
Emperor Kangze was so angry that Xiao Jue just walked out of the hall with a flick of his sleeves when he was dragged away.
The remaining ministers in the hall looked at each other in bewilderment.
All the ministers, led by Grand Tutor Zhang, were thrown into disarray.
The Taifu Mansion is the Queen's maiden family, which is also the home of Xiao Jue's maternal grandfather. They naturally support Xiao Jue. Now that Xiao Jue is about to be executed, do they still have a good future?
Xiao Jin walked up to Su Ying, held her hand, and the two of them walked out of the hall as if no one was around.
After leaving the palace and getting on the carriage, Xiao Jin slowly let go of the breath he had been holding and his face turned pale.
Seeing this, Su Ying moved closer and let him lean on her to steady himself.
"Does the wound hurt again?" The two cuts were quite deep. Although she had sutured the wounds, it would still take time for the inside to recover.
Xiao Jin hummed lightly and held her hand tightly, "It's just a minor injury."
"Well, I spent the whole night in jail. How are you going to compensate me?"
Xiao Jin turned around, suddenly hugged her head and kissed her, just a little, and then stopped, "How about paying with your body?"
Su Ying stroked his pale lips and chuckled, "Okay."
Xiao Jin laughed softly, his chest shaking, showing how happy he was.
"Su Ying."
"kindness?"
"Thank you."
"Thank me for something."
"Everything, everything about you, makes me happy."
"Then if I were a useless little white flower, you would not be happy?"
"As long as it's you, I'm happy with anything."
Su Ying raised the corners of her lips, "I suddenly realized that I am also very happy."
Xiao Jin's black eyes were as bright as stars, "Really?"
Su Ying looked at his expectant expression and answered very seriously, "I really like it."
Xiao Jin couldn't help but hold her in his arms, and Su Ying didn't struggle for fear of touching the wound on his shoulder.
"I know this makes you uncomfortable, but it will be over soon..."
"There's nothing to be uncomfortable about. This is not a wilderness. This is a country with its own rules and regulations. The way we deal with things can't always remain the same. I, Su Ying, am not a fool who can only swing my fists."
It was true that they had neglected Ling'er's matter, but Xiao Jin decided to take advantage of the situation and deliberately had someone spread the news that he was seriously injured and unconscious. Su Ying also deliberately followed him to the Jingzhao Yin Mansion to create an illusion for the outside world that there was no one in charge of the Prince of Qi's Mansion and they could take advantage of the situation.
Sure enough, Xiao Jue couldn't hold back and took action.
Su Ying leaned in Xiao Jin's arms, closed her eyes and said slowly: "The Red Devil's men should not be Xiao Jue's."
The charge of attempting to rebel has already been brought down, and the additional charge of finding someone to assassinate Xiao Jue is really nothing, especially since the two of them have a grudge against each other, there is no need for Xiao Jue to react so strongly.
But his reaction was so big and even exaggerated, which was not normal.
Xiao Jin's rough fingertips gently stroked her lips, his dark eyes dim, "It's not him."
"Who is that?"
"The emperor doesn't trust anyone, so the eunuchs he placed around us are all his people."
Su Ying opened her eyes abruptly upon hearing this, "Is there something wrong with Zhang Shuming?"
Xiao Jin's fingertips gently stroked along the corner of her lips all the way down to her collarbone, "The emperor thinks Zhang Shuming is his man, but he doesn't know that he only wants to repay his mother."
So although Zhang Shuming looked like Emperor Kangze's man, he was actually loyal to Xiao Jin. No wonder after those people were driven away, Emperor Kangze did not make things difficult for him after Xiao Jin brought Zhang Shuming back. This was the reason.
"So the one who took the silver to the Red Devil Sect was indeed the eunuch beside Xiao Jue, but he was not instructed by Xiao Jue, but by Emperor Kang Ze."
"That should be the case." If Xiao Jue spent such a large sum of money to buy their lives, there would be no need to set up the subsequent plan. He is not the kind of person who would think so thoroughly before and after.
Su Ying sneered. No wonder Chu Mo's face changed when he heard that he was going to meet Emperor Kang Ze. He knew what was going on.
"You are such a cheap old man and you are so inhumane." She even suspected that he had paranoid delusions, otherwise why would he want to kill everyone with a knife.
"Xiao Jue died just like that, what a pity." Su Ying suddenly said.
Xiao Jin tightened his hand on his shoulder, "What a pity?"
Beheading was too easy for Xiao Jue. "It's more comfortable to watch dogs fight each other rather than do it myself." It's better to make use of waste than to throw it away directly.
Xiao Jin's expression relaxed and he laughed, "I will."
Xiao Jue was the only hope of the Taifu lineage. Xiao Jue's death also meant their downfall. How could Taifu Zhang, who had been in the court for many years, tolerate such a situation?
Therefore, Master Zhang would never let Xiao Jue die.
