Xiao Hezi suddenly realized and understood.
Xiao Hongxuan also had some understanding, but he was not quite sure. He tentatively asked, "Tell Father, and ask Father to help investigate?"
“No need,” Jiaming rejected the little guy’s idea. “Think about it again.”
Xiao Hezi knew that his master had misunderstood, and it was obvious that his master was planning to use this opportunity to teach his master, so he should just watch from the sidelines.
After being rejected, the little guy frowned and thought carefully, but still couldn't come up with anything for a while.
Seeing that he was completely puzzled, Jiaming gave him a slight hint: "Sometimes it's good to use someone else to do your dirty work. Try to understand the meaning of the phrase 'using someone else to do your dirty work'."
The person they want to kill must be Princess Wang from Uncle Ba's household, but if the knife they need to borrow isn't from Father, then who is it from?
In an instant, several names flashed through Xiao Hongxuan's little head.
First, there were her mother's closest and most trusted people, such as Xiao Hezi and her uncle Jiaheng. But these people should be considered as knives in her mother's hands. So, using their words wouldn't be considered borrowing a knife.
Then another thought flashed through his little head, such as his stepmother, Li's mother from the Pear Courtyard, and Hesheli's mother, etc.
Imagine them being dragged into that knife. Thinking back, it seems that Ama thought they were the culprits, and even got angry and took action because of it, causing Li Eniang and the others to suffer heavy losses.
Because the culprit framed them for plotting against their mother, if it were me, if I were the one framed, I would definitely hate the person who framed me.
Similarly, Li's mother and the others would certainly hate Princess Wang from their eighth uncle's household for framing them.
"So, Mother, the knife you want to borrow belongs to Li Eniang and the others?" Although it was a question, Xiao Hongxuan's tone was one of certainty.
Jiaming nodded, showing an attitude of being teachable, "That's right."
As she spoke, she turned her gaze to Xiao Hezi, looked at him, and said, "Next, it's up to you, Xiao Hezi. Have someone leak the contents of the secret letter. The same thing as before, be natural and don't let anyone find out that you're involved with us."
Xiao Hezi nodded, indicating, "This servant understands what to do, Master, please rest assured."
