Chapter 1019 Leaving (3)
Xie Jing Xing pondered for a moment and said, "Maybe it's because of you?"
"Me?" Shen Miao looked at him.
"You married into Daliang. Fu Xiuyi previously suspected our relationship, suspecting Daliang of being the backer of the Shen family. After returning to Longye, I had people monitor Fu Xiuyi's movements and discovered he was investigating everything about me at the Lin'an Marquisate. He might have known my identity. He might have misunderstood the relationship between the Shen family and me, believing they had defected to Daliang or had other plans." He paused, then continued, "Fu Xiuyi is ruthless and suspicious by nature. If he senses something is amiss, he will eliminate them completely. If the Shen family makes him feel uneasy in the slightest, he will do everything in his power to eradicate them."
"I do understand this." Shen Miao's eyes were slightly cold. Even at the end of his previous life, didn't Fu Xiuyi clean up the first house neatly for the sake of the Shen family's military power?
"But you don't have to worry." Xie Jingxing pinched her face and said, "I have arranged people in Dingjing. No matter what, they are capable of protecting your family's safety."
"You have already arranged people?" Shen Miao asked, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Xie Jingxing said, "Do you still need to take credit for something like this? They are my family too. How could I let them stay in Dingjing without proper arrangements?"
When Shen Miao heard Xie Jingxing say, "They're my family too," her heart felt as sweet as honey, and a smile graced her eyes. She said, "Come to think of it, I never expected the Feng family to actually join forces with Big Brother." She had previously asked Shen Qiu to help look after the Feng family in order to prevent Feng An Ning from repeating the mistakes of her previous life, but she had no idea when this relationship had developed. However, it seemed that Feng An Ning would no longer marry that frivolous cousin, who looked all show and no substance, as she had done in her previous life.
"But there's one thing I was about to tell you." Xie Jingxing's face suddenly turned serious: "Fu Xiuyi has secret dealings with the Emperor of Qin."
Shen Miao was startled and asked, "Do you want to borrow troops?" The mention of this reminded her of the five years she had spent as a hostage in the State of Qin. Fu Xiuyi hadn't married yet, so had he found other hostages?
"Maybe some agreement was reached privately, most likely ceding land." Xie Jingxing said.
Shen Miao frowned: "Is it to help him win the throne? However, using the power of a foreign country to win the throne will cause many complications in the future. Fu Xiuyi will not do this."
Xie Jing Xing lowered his gaze and said, "To deal with Daliang."
Shen Miao looked at him: "They want to deal with Daliang? They are crazy." Although Mingqi and Qin are much stronger than before, Daliang's national strength is also in front of everyone. At the very least, it will be a lose-lose situation. They have been at peace for so many years, why would they take the initiative to provoke a dispute?
"This doesn't tolerate a thorn in the eye," Xie Jingxing laughed. "Besides, Longye is a little chaotic right now because of the Lu and Ye families. They have an opportunity and will not let it go."
Shen Miao thought carefully about Xie Jingxing's words for a while, and said: "You are right, this day will come sooner or later." However, starting a war now may not be a good opportunity for Daliang.
"Don't worry." Xie Jingxing rubbed her head: "Leave these to me."
“I am also the princess of Prince Rui’s mansion, okay?” Shen Miao glared at him, very dissatisfied with his words.
Xie Jing Xing looked at her calmly: "Oh, you don't feel it's a disadvantage to be transformed from a queen to a princess?"
“We’ve already eaten, what’s the point of talking about this now?” Shen Miao snorted.
Xie Jingxing was about to speak when Huixiang knocked on the door outside, motioning her to come in. Huixiang looked at Shen Miao, then at Xie Jingxing, with a conflicted look in her eyes.
