Before the two of them even sat down in their bedroom, a guard came hurriedly to report.
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Zhao is dead!"
Xiao Xieyun frowned, "Dead? What happened?!"
"Your Majesty, the Minister of Revenue went to the prison tonight and wanted to see Prime Minister Zhao. Unexpectedly, he took out a knife and stabbed Prime Minister Zhao to death!
The Minister of Revenue has been apprehended, and Prime Minister Zhao's body is still in prison, awaiting your Majesty's orders."
Ying Xixi, who was standing by, was stunned.
Zhao Linjian died again?
She became a widow again? ?
Is the power of the original plot so strong?
In this life, Zhao Linjian was not killed by the general's confidant as in the original plot, but he still could not escape the fate of being killed.
Xiao Xieyun stood up and turned to look at Ying Xixi. "If you're tired, take a rest first. I'll come over after I finish my business."
Ying Xixi nodded, still looking a little dazed.
Xiao Xieyun saw it, and a hint of darkness flashed in his eyes.
After Xiao Xieyun left, Ying Xixi asked the system in her heart.
"System, Zhao Linjian is dead just like that? Is he really dead?"
[Yes, he is really dead, deader than dead.]
"I clearly avoided the plot that led to his death in the original plane, but I didn't expect that he still couldn't escape the fate of being killed. The power of the original plot is really too strong!"
Ying Xixi was very emotional.
[Host, some plots are reasonable as long as they exist.
For example, if Zhao Linjian did not order anyone to assassinate the wife of the Minister of Revenue, the Minister of Revenue would not want to kill him to avenge his wife.
Even if the person who killed Zhao Linjian was not the Minister of Revenue, someone else would have killed him.
This is all cause and effect, and karma will always pay off.]
"That's right. Zhao Linjian deserved it. But he died a little too early. He died before I even divorced him."
Ying Xixi muttered to herself, "I'm a widow again now. If I want to completely leave the Zhao family, I still have to divorce him.
System, now that Zhao Linjian is dead, if Xiao Xieyun unilaterally issues an order declaring that Zhao Linjian and I are divorced, will you acknowledge that I have fulfilled the original owner's wish to leave the Zhao family?"
[Yes, this is ancient times after all, and imperial power is above all else. As long as the emperor issues an order, then you and Zhao Linjian will be divorced.]
Ying Xixi was relieved, "That's good, after the Zhao family is executed, the original owner will only have one wish left.
But destroying the enemy country seems a bit difficult.
This is not something I can accomplish alone.”
[Host, don't worry. The hero will definitely destroy the enemy country. The enemy country has been provoking him time and time again. The hero has a bad temper and will definitely take action.]
"That's what I said, but what if Xiao Xieyun really didn't intend to destroy the enemy country?"
Ying Xixi couldn't help but think too much.
[Then there's even less need to worry. The hero likes you. As long as you ask, he will definitely destroy the enemy country! ]
The system's baby voice was full of confidence, and it didn't think that its host's mission would fail.
Ying Xixi chatted with the system for a while and felt more confident.
She asked the palace maid to bring her some water, and after washing up, she got into bed.
But she really didn't feel sleepy at the moment, so she asked the system to open a virtual board for her and play a movie for her.
In the eyes of others, Ying Xixi was lying on the bed, staring at the bed curtains in a daze, smiling from time to time, as if she was stimulated.
On the other side, Xiao Xieyun went to the prison and saw Zhao Linjian's body with his own eyes.
Make sure he's completely dead.
Remembering that Ying Xixi had been talking about wanting to divorce Zhao Linjian, Xiao Xieyun asked the eunuch Fuquan to bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and he personally wrote a divorce letter between Zhao Linjian and Ying Xixi.
Let Fuquan hold Zhao Linjian's finger and press the fingerprint on the divorce agreement.
Xiao Xieyun slowly folded the divorce agreement and put it in his arms, saying calmly, "Deal with the body and bring the Minister of Revenue here."
"yes."
After the Minister of Revenue came over, he saluted Xiao Xieyun, lowered his head and said nothing.
He exuded indifference, as if he had already made up his mind to die and didn't care how Xiao Xieyun would deal with him.
"You killed Zhao Linjian to avenge your wife."
Xiao Xieyun said this in an affirmative tone.
The Minister of Revenue nodded, his eyes red and his voice hoarse, "Yes, I don't regret killing Zhao Linjian, I only regret not knowing earlier that Zhao Linjian was the murderer.
I have killed Zhao Linjian, and I plead guilty. Whatever punishment Your Majesty wishes to bestow upon me, I will accept."
"Good kill."
The three words "Xiao Xieyun" stunned the Minister of Revenue for a moment, and he looked up at him in disbelief.
Xiao Xieyun tapped the table lightly with his fingertips, "Zhao Linjian is not a good man. If you kill him, you will not only avenge your wife, but also eliminate harm for the people. I will not punish you.
Tonight, just pretend nothing happened and go back."
When the Minister of Revenue heard this, a light flashed in his red eyes.
He knelt down and kowtowed three times to Xiao Xieyun, "Your Majesty, thank you for your grace!"
Xiao Xieyun returned to the door of the bedroom and called out the secret guards.
The female secret guard hiding in the house appeared in front of him silently.
"How is she?"
"Your Majesty, after you left, the Queen sat at the table, dazed for a while. Then she washed up and went to bed, where she continued to lie there in a daze. She seemed... not in a very good mood."
When Xiao Xieyun heard this, his face suddenly darkened.
He asked the female secret guard to step back first and pushed the door open and went in.
