Qin Xun immediately stopped, then turned around with neither servility nor arrogance, "What are your orders, Miss Xie?"
"Qin Xun, although my carriage doesn't have the General's Mansion's insignia, you know it's the General's Mansion, you know I'm inside, you know about my past grievances with the Vice Minister's Mansion, you deliberately escalated the conflict so you could step in."
Upon hearing this, Qin Xun's body trembled, and he slowly raised his head, "Thank you, Miss Xie..."
"That burly, bearded man who provided the carriage must be one of your accomplices, right?"
Qin Xun's eyes flickered slightly, but he still shook his head, not understanding, and looked at Xie Lingqin, who was wearing a hood, "Miss Xie, what are you talking about? I don't quite understand."
Xie Lingqin took off her hood, tossed her sideburns, and sighed, "Whether you understand or not, I can help you today, but I hope that the wolf I helped that night was a wolf with blood in it. But please, don't let this wolf be one that only knows how to bite back."
Upon hearing this, Qin Xun's pale face changed drastically, filled with shock. "You..."
That night, when he was being beaten by the Vice Minister's wife, he secretly helped her. It was Miss Xie who caused the Vice Minister's wife to fall into the water.
Did Miss Xie secretly go to the Vice Minister's residence at that time?
If she's that capable, then could she have also noticed the severity of Qin Qi's injuries...?
"Whether Qin Qi lives or dies is none of my business. Besides, the Vice Minister's wife will hold this grudge against me anyway, so you don't need to worry about it." Xie Lingqin spoke up at the right time, and then got into the carriage.
Let's go.
Zihe drove the carriage.
Behind him, Qin Xun watched the carriage gradually disappear into the distance, Xie Lingqin's words still echoing in his mind.
---Aside---
The crown prince looked inscrutable. "Actually, I have a secret."
Xinzhi covered her mouth and screamed, "Tell me, tell me!"
The crown prince glanced at her and said, "We'll talk about it tomorrow."
New branches...
What the heck!
