Chapter 137 The largest intelligence organization in Jianghu - Dark Pavilion
"..." Ji Xiaohan was obviously stunned by the little princess's focus. He paused before saying, "Have you heard of the largest intelligence organization in the martial arts world - the Dark Chamber?"
If the original owner, who never left the house, had never heard of this, then he would definitely not have heard of it. However, after the rebirth of Su Wanyan, she was not surprised. "Ah, I think I've heard someone say that they know everything in the world. No one and nothing can escape their eyes. They are very powerful."
Ji Xiao listened to a young princess who had always been kept in seclusion, talking about the calmness and composure of the Dark Chamber, the largest organization in the martial arts world. His eyes were deep, but he didn't ask any more questions. He nodded and said, "Yes, it is this Dark Chamber. Their leader, Xiao Shiyi, is my man."
Xiao Shiyi? !
Yes! Just by hearing the name, you can guess that it is Ji Xiaohan's man.
Xiao is Ji Xiaohan's mother's surname.
When he was conferred the title of prince, the late emperor took Ji Xiaohan's mother's surname. After that, all the confidants around Ji Xiaohan were named with the surname Xiao.
When Su Wanyan heard this, she became even more curious. Since Xiao Shiyi was Ji Xiaohan's man, didn't that mean that the Dark Pavilion also belonged to Ji Xiaohan? The Dark Pavilion was so good at gathering intelligence, so how come they didn't discover that someone was trying to poison Ji Xiaohan in advance?
In his previous life, Ji Xiaohan's life of property confiscation and exile was not as comfortable as theirs now.
Su Wanyan thought so and asked just like that. However, Ji Xiaohan's originally cool expression turned into frost in an instant, and he didn't hide his displeasure in his tone. "Someone bribed one of the high-ranking officials of the Dark Pavilion. The news of my poisoning was not delivered to the headquarters until three days later. By then, it was too late to stop it."
The situation that Ji Xiaohan described was something that happened in his current life, but what he didn't say was that in his previous life, that senior executive had always been working in secret for Ji Yueze. Ji Xiaohan waited until Su Wanyan died and investigated the people around her before he found this person. However, by then, it was too late.
"So that's how it is!" Su Wanyan nodded. No wonder. Even with Ji Xiaohan's cautiousness and the terrifying intelligence network of the Dark Pavilion, it was unbelievable that he was still plotted against.
Seeing the thoughtful look on the little princess's face, Ji Xiaohan became alert. He quietly changed the subject and said, "It may take half a day to clear the road. How about playing chess with me to pass the time?"
Music, chess, calligraphy and painting are essential skills that every girl in the boudoir must learn. There is nothing wrong with Ji Xiaohan saying this.
"...I don't want to play chess." Su Wanyan's breath was choked when she heard this.
The original owner's chess skills were not very proficient. Even though she was reborn and received the original owner's memories, her chess skills were still very average.
Ji Xiaohan smiled, "Don't want to play chess? Then what do you want to do?"
Su Wanyan stared at Ji Xiaohan suspiciously, "Ji Xiaohan, why do you suddenly insist on doing something with me? Tell me, are you up to something shady?"
This man, even though he stayed in the carriage all day, seemingly leisurely and doing nothing, in fact, she could feel that he was dealing with various things when she could see him or not. Now he suddenly wanted to play with her, which was very suspicious!
Ji Xiaohan spread his hands and said innocently, "How can this be considered as having evil intentions if I want to be close to you, my lady? Princess, please don't blame me wrongly."
