Chapter 45 There is a Secret



Feng Qing had never known that Jia Xinglin was capable of so many tricks, and she admired him so much.

After Zhao Zhe left, the two talked all night and became close friends.

When the Jiang family was mentioned, the two of them gathered together and cursed.

Feng Qing showed goodwill to Jia Xinglin and told him the news from the court: "The new emperor has long disliked the nobles, so he supports the Jiang family and turns a blind eye to their tyranny."

Upon hearing this, Jia Xinglin revealed a ruthless look and said, "My father's death has happened, and the real culprit has not been found yet."

The murderer entered the mansion dressed in black and avoided the guards of the Duke's Mansion. He must have extraordinary skills.

After being injured that day, the people from the Wucheng Bingmasi imposed martial law throughout the city, but they couldn't find any clues.

"Is it that they can't find it or are they letting it go on purpose?"

Jia Xinglin lay on the bed, lost in deep thought.

Feng Qing suddenly remembered that on the day Duke Mao was assassinated, he and Jiang Yuzhu were having a secret meeting outside the city, but he didn't gain any advantage and was beaten and sent back.

There were checkpoints set up by the Five Cities Army along the way, and Feng Qing saw the team leader Xu Qian searching in a rage.

It seemed like something flashed through his mind quickly, but it flashed too fast and Feng Qing couldn't catch it for a while.

In high spirits, Jia Xinglin said to Feng Qing, "You're also a top scholar. Why are you always compared to Xie Zhao?"

Feng Qing said with a bitter look on his face, "Your Highness, you have hit the nail on the head. It's okay to compete, but you always step on me."

Jia Xinglin agreed: "That's wrong. There's no point in comparing. Looking across the entire Great Qi, who can compare with Xie Zhaolai?"

Feng Qing: “…”

Prince Jia is not good at speaking, so he could just say less.

Seeing Feng Qing's silence, Jia Xinglin couldn't bear to lose this ally, so he called Feng Qing closer stealthily: "This prince has a secret that I can tell you."

In fact, Jia Xinglin started dealing with the Jiang family a long time ago.

About a year ago, Jia Xinglin was traveling around the capital and he fell in love with a village girl who was washing clothes by the river.

The woman had red lips and white teeth and was very pretty.

"I was so angry that I pinned him to the ground."

The woman kept crying, which made Jia Xinglin upset.

He was just about to introduce himself when a bad idea suddenly came to him.

"So, this prince told her that the woman's surname was Jiang, her name was Huaiqing, and she was the second son of the Jiang family in the capital."

After Jia Xinglin finished speaking, he felt proud of his own intelligence and talent.

People from small places have never even been to the capital and have never seen the world.

Jia Xinglin became addicted to playing and cheated many women by providing them with food and shelter for several months.

Feng Qing was shocked for a while before he found the voice: "So that's it!"

No wonder a village woman came to Beijing to recognize her relatives these two days, saying that Jiang Huaiqing had a son.

Jia Xinglin laughed so hard that his wounds twitched, and he let out a pig-killing howl: "Interesting, very interesting!"

Anyway, as long as he doesn't go out, once the storm is over, the Jiang family will still be the ones to take the blame.

After two days, the erotic painting was completed.

Before Jia Xinglin could call Feng Qing to appreciate it together, the pornographic booklet disappeared!

"Who did it? It's hard to guard against thieves in your own home."

Jia Xinglin was very angry and called all the servants in the mansion.

He was carried into the yard for questioning.

The servants stood with their heads down, but Jia Xinglin lay on the ground, which was very funny.

"That's an important item in the mansion. If it gets out..."

It wouldn't matter if it got out, since we were planning to make a copy and spread it anyway. The problem is that Duke Mao's Mansion can't be the source!

Jia Xinglin broke out in a cold sweat, and the interrogation was fruitless.

The item was lost in his room and no servant had come in during that time.

After dinner, it was already nightfall.

In the study of Xie's house, a man in black was kneeling on the ground, dragging a booklet in his hands.

"Master, you said I owed Madam a favor, and now I should repay it."

After the man in black finished speaking, he held the book forward.

After his injuries improved slightly, he continued to be responsible for monitoring the Mansion of Duke Mao.

Because Jia Xinglin has been paralyzed in bed, there hasn't been much movement recently.

When Feng Qing and Zhao Zhe visited Jia Xinglin together, he became more cautious.

After learning about the group's plan, the man in black took the evidence back.

"I guarantee that I absolutely did not peek."

If this were to get out, as it concerns the wife's reputation, he would be even more embarrassed than Ji Chengyun.

Xie Zhaoqiang calmed himself, opened it, took a quick look, and closed it in a somewhat awkward manner.

"It seems that Jia Xinglin is really tired of living."

Xie Zhao closed his eyes and squeezed out a few words from his lips after a while.

The Duke Mao's Mansion is only a small part of the power structure, and there must be someone in the court taking the lead.

However, the man was too secretive, and no matter how many times Xie Zhao tried to test him, he didn't reveal any clues.

Since the big fish hasn't come up, Jia Xinglin still has some value.

The two were talking in the study when Shen Zhilan ran to the door with her maid Xia'er and said anxiously, "Cousin, go and have a look. Xie Xuan is acting a little abnormally!"

Since making the decision, Shen Zhilan is no longer shy.

On ordinary days, Xie Zhao did not return home, so the two would not meet.

If there is a chance to meet him, Shen Zhilan will just take a detour.

She planned to move out, but was stopped by Jiang Yuzhu.

There are few masters in the Xie Mansion but many guest rooms, so Shen Zhilan would not be alone. Besides, if she stayed in the mansion, it would be more convenient for them to take care of each other.

Now, Shen Zhilan treats Jiang Yuzhu as her cousin-in-law and wants to bring them together from time to time.

When Xie Zhao heard the noise, he quickly put the pornographic booklet in the drawer.

He opened the door and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chen Zhilan wiped her sweat and said, "Let Xia'er tell you that I have to go and deliver a letter to my cousin's wife. How can this family be without my cousin's wife?"

Xie Zhao: "..."

Fortunately, Xia Er spoke eloquently: "The Fifth Young Master was studying when he suddenly felt a pain in his leg. I was just about to deliver some snacks when I noticed black blood flowing from his leg."
