"Your Highness, look, do you know what's in here?"
Seeing Jiang Jingyue pull out a large purse, Qin Hanwu was somewhat puzzled and could only shake his head.
"Xiao Jing, is there something in here?"
Jiang Jingyue didn't explain, but she immediately stuffed what she was holding into Qin Hanwu's hand.
"Your Highness, look at this. It was used by someone to bribe me. You'll see when you see it."
Qin Hanwu was stunned as soon as Jiang Jingyue said those words, his eyes filled with disbelief.
He hadn't expected Bai Jingyue to bring this up so casually.
For a moment, he didn't know what to say, and could only give her a vague look.
Jiang Jingyue acted as if she didn't see his strange look, and just urged him to open the purse and take a look.
Although he didn't know what Jiang Jingyue meant, Qin Hanwu still opened the purse in front of her, and his eyes were full of surprise when he saw what was inside.
"What do you mean by this? Someone used these things to bribe you, and you're planning to show them off in front of me?"
Qin Hanwu's tone was extremely cold, the kind that chills to the bone.
If Jiang Jingyue hadn't been a worldly person, she might have been afraid of Qin Hanwu looking like this.
"Your Highness, do you think this is what Xiao Jing means? Although Xiao Jing verbally agreed to help those people monitor Your Highness, Your Highness, Xiao Jing only made that verbal agreement."
Looking at Jiang Jingyue's serious expression, Qin Hanwu could hardly believe it.
"You...you mean you took people's money but didn't do the work, is that right?"
Jiang Jingyue's eyes widened suddenly, and Qin Hanwu's image was reflected in them.
"Your Highness, you can't say that. Although Xiao Jing did agree to them, they didn't say that Xiao Jing had to tell the truth, right? If they ask me anything, I can just say whatever I want, can't I?"
Besides, Xiao Jing is now the prince's man, how could she possibly betray him? Your Highness, don't you agree?
For some reason, looking at Jiang Jingyue's serious expression, Qin Hanwu inexplicably trusted her.
"So what are you going to do now? Do you know how dangerous this is? If they find out you're lying to them, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Seeing how excited he was, Jiang Jingyue shook her head at him.
"Your Highness, Xiao Jing is not afraid, and they don't know whether what I said is true or false!"
"Oh, right, I almost forgot, Your Highness, those people who came looking for Xiao Jing were sent by the Emperor. Your Highness, do you have some grudge against the Emperor? Otherwise, why would he send people to monitor you?"
Upon hearing Jiang Jingyue's words, Qin Hanwu nodded.
"His Majesty has always been wary of me because I hold two-thirds of the military power in the entire dynasty. He is probably afraid that I will rebel!"
So he had people keeping watch over me, but I've dealt with them all.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jingyue subconsciously took a step back, looking at the person in front of her with a wary expression.
"Your Highness...you don't mean you also want to get rid of Xiao Jing, do you?"
Seeing Jiang Jingyue's somewhat frightened expression, Qin Hanwu immediately laughed.
"How could that be? You've told me everything honestly, so I certainly won't do anything to you. You can rest assured about that."
As soon as Qin Hanwu finished speaking, Jiang Jingyue couldn't help but pat her chest and smile at the person in front of her.
"I was so scared! Xiao Jing thought the prince was going to get rid of her."
Qin Hanwu really didn't expect Jiang Jingyue to tell him this. It seems that his original plan has to be changed again.
He had originally planned to let Wang Desheng take the person away, but now he suddenly couldn't bear to part with him.
Just as the two were gazing at each other, Wang Desheng walked in with several people.
Seeing this scene before him, he felt a little reluctant to disturb it.
But they were summoned by the prince, and although he was afraid of upsetting the prince, he still went up to them.
"His Highness has arrived. Can we take her away now? Don't worry, Wang Yue, I've arranged everything. I guarantee Miss Jiang will like it there."
Hearing Wang Desheng mention her, Jiang Jingyue was filled with doubt and couldn't help but look in his direction.
"Wang Desheng, what do you mean by 'over there'? What is 'over there'? Where are you taking me?"
When Jiang Jingyue asked this question, Wang Desheng didn't answer her. He just kept looking at Qin Hanwu, waiting for him to speak. Qin Hanwu waved to him and said...
"Wang Desheng, you can go now. The plan has changed, so we don't need to proceed. Send all these people back!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Desheng was filled with confusion and bewilderment.
He didn't know why his lord would suddenly change his mind about something that had been decided, but he also understood that since his lord had said so, there must be a reason, and he didn't need to ask any further questions.
"Your Highness, I understand. I will take my leave now. You and Miss Jiang can have a proper talk."
Wang Desheng felt that the only person who could change the prince's mind now was Miss Jiang.
After watching Wang Desheng leave, Jiang Jingyue immediately asked the person in front of her.
"Your Highness, what did Eunuch Wang mean just now? Was he planning to take me away? Where was he going to take me?"
Although Jiang Jingyue had already asked, Wang Desheng did not reply, so she couldn't help but ask again.
Qin Hanwu slowly stood up, came to her side, and leaned down to blow a breath into her ear.
Before he could even speak, Jiang Jingyue couldn't help but push him away; it was just too itchy.
It made her ears feel tingly and numb, which was very uncomfortable.
"Your Highness, please don't be like this. Xiao Jing is very uncomfortable with you like this. If you have something to say, just say it."
Qin Hanwu couldn't help but laugh, his laughter low and deep.
"Xiao Jing, do you know? Actually, I already knew that you accepted the emperor's gifts. I should treat you the same way I treated the previous ones."
But for some reason, the thought of you dying suddenly makes me reluctant to let you go, so I'm going to have Wang Desheng send you away, away from this place, so that I won't have to see you again.
"Little Jing, I suddenly realize that I fell in love with you the moment I first saw you."
Qin Hanwu had been pondering these words for a long time before finally uttering them. He wasn't one to mince words; once he had made up his mind, he would strive to achieve it.
