Chapter 156 His Highness Insists on Taking Risks
If Xiao Tingye was in danger, she would definitely save him.
Xiao Tingye saved her life, and since he risked his own life to save her, she couldn't just stand by and watch him get into danger.
As for whether it is important or not...
She has not yet reached a conclusion on this point.
But my feelings towards him are indeed different now.
It's not just a life-saving grace.
But this kind of mood will not drown her reason, nor will it occupy the most important position.
Because she knows exactly what she is doing and what she wants to do step by step.
But her words obviously pleased the man in front of her.
The aura around Xiao Tingye became much gentler, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised.
I don't know what he was thinking, and he was quiet for a while after saying this.
[Lao Xiao: My wife said she would save me, does she like me? Hehehehe]
【Every word is not important, but every word is carefully considered】
[The princess saved the villain only because the villain had saved her before, right?]
[No matter what, this is a two-way rush, woooo ...
After a long moment, Xiao Tingye slowly spoke, "The medicine I gave him will not harm his life. As long as he behaves himself, it will not have any effect on him."
Lin Zhaoyue frowned and looked at him suspiciously.
He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Your Highness, don't you believe it?"
Lin Zhaoyue didn't disbelieve it, but she knew that Xiao Tingye was not a kind-hearted person.
But he is a man who disdains to lie.
I will not deny what I have done.
That's why she felt strange.
What does it mean that Ming Xi An Fen will not have any effect?
And it made Mingxi too embarrassed to tell him about it.
He has always been at odds with Xiao Tingye, but he didn't even complain to me about this matter.
Combined with what Doctor Xu said and the speculation from the subtitles.
She already had some doubts at this point.
Is it really that kind of medicine?
If it really is that kind of medicine...
This person is really vicious.
Xiao Tingye's eyes were originally on Lin Zhaoyue, when he saw the subtle change in Zhaoyue's expression.
The corners of his lips curled up slightly, "It seems that His Highness has guessed it."
Not only did he not feel guilty at all about Lin Zhaoyue guessing what the medicine was and discovering the evil things he had done, he was even secretly happy.
Lin Zhaoyue didn't know what Xiao Tingye was so happy about.
He frowned and asked, "Xiao Tingye, can you be a human being?"
The curve of Xiao Tingye's lips deepened a little, but he didn't answer her.
But he seemed to enjoy Lin Zhaoyue's tone very much.
[Lao Xiao: No, I want to be a dog]
Woof woof woof woof
[It seems that I guessed right. Lao Xiao must have given Ming Xi a drug that affects men’s sexual performance.]
[Tsk tsk tsk, that's too much]
Ming Xi: Thank you.
[Am I the only one curious about what happens after Mingxi takes this medicine?]
[Ahhh, someone wrote in blood, asking for Mingxi's perspective! !]
"How long does the effect of the medicine last?" Lin Zhaoyue asked lightly.
Xiao Tingye didn't answer and pretended not to hear her question.
Instead, he talked about something else: "Your Highness, have you figured out how to investigate the Xiling incident?"
Lin Zhaoyue glanced at him coldly. Although she knew he was trying to change the subject, this was indeed what she was thinking about at the moment.
So I just went along with what he said.
"Concubine Chun is in prison now, and His Majesty is waiting for Xiling's reply. Lu Chenzhou is still in the capital, and there seems to be an unusual figure around him... The capital and Xiling are in a mess now." Xiao Tingye spoke slowly.
Lin Zhaoyue said calmly, "According to the schedule, Xiling or Lu Chenzhou should have made some moves in the next two days."
The purpose of saving Concubine Chun's life was to see whether Marquis Xuanping could make another compromise for Concubine Chun in exchange for her life.
That's the only purpose of keeping her alive.
Otherwise, Concubine Chun would have been executed long ago.
"As for Xiling, the most urgent task now is to find out Xiling's military strength and gather evidence of his illegal iron mining. Although this reduction of power has caused Xiling significant damage, no one knows how many troops he has secretly maintained."
Her eyes were cold and pointed. "Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you defeat them. We must make them desperate, but they will have nowhere else to turn."
If we didn't know the specific situation of Xiling now, we could arrest Lu Chenzhou and charge him with conspiring with gang members to commit treason.
The biggest problem now is that Xiling has been relying on its own military for many years, and no one knows how many troops Xiling has hidden.
The emperor is far away and the emperor has been too lenient with Lu Shi over the years.
I don’t know how many troops Xiling has, and now the people of Xiling are very supportive of Marquis Xuanping and his son.
These are all big problems.
Xiao Tingye curled his lips, "Then your Highness plans to..."
The reason why he asked this was because he knew that she had something in mind.
"I plan to go to Xiling in person." Lin Zhaoyue said slowly.
Her words made Xiao Tingye's expression suddenly change.
He stared at her for a long while.
Then he said, "Your Highness, have you decided?"
Lin Zhaoyue looked at him and said, "Only if I go there in person can I know the true situation. And as a princess, no one dares to question what I see and hear."
She had already decided on her trip to Xiling.
Relying solely on spies to report back and forth is too long and not timely.
Moreover, Xiling is impregnable, and Lu Shi is extremely cunning. No matter how many spies have infiltrated over the years, they cannot know Xiling completely.
Only by going there yourself can you know what it is like.
Xiao Tingye looked at her quietly for a while.
"Your Highness, do you have to take this risk?" This is not a question, but a statement.
Lin Zhaoyue curled her lips, "Some risks must be taken."
Xiao Tingye's lips curled slightly, "I understand."
In their position, there is no need to say anything more.
He naturally knew what she wanted to do.
She also knew that what she decided was irreversible.
Xiao Tingye is a smart man and will not do useless things.
The two of them have been rivals for many years, and although they are rivals, they also have enough tacit understanding.
"Since Your Highness has made the decision, I, the humble servant, know what to do."
Lin Zhaoyue looked at him in confusion.
Xiao Tingye: "His Majesty has instructed me to investigate the illegal mining and weapon forging in Xiling. Since His Majesty has a plan, I, your humble servant, should cooperate."
He only said this but didn't say how to cooperate.
It was as if he was waiting for her to ask, and he just looked at her with a smile.
Lin Zhaoyue looked away and did not follow his wishes.
"Do you know the person next to Lu Chenzhou?"
