Chapter 425: Xu Jing's Death

Xiao Huai's words also made Shen Xi think of Xu Jing.

She and Xu Jing also had a marriage contract, if Xu Jing was still there, I don't know what would happen to Xiao Huai, what would happen to Xu Jing, and what would happen to herself?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but hook his neck again, put it against his chest and said, "I'm sorry." ”

She was the one who made him jealous like that.

As for Xu Jing, her guilt may only be more......

The mind is in a mess.

I thought that what I pressed down before might just be deliberately paralyzed.

Xiao Huai wrapped his arms around her waist and leaned down to kiss her hair: "Don't tell me I'm sorry." You don't owe me. I don't mind making mistakes.

"If there's a mistake I don't mind, then it's useless for you to say I'm sorry. ”

Shen Xi sighed.

The Mei family knows how to be proportional and knows that the Shen family is busy, so they have not mentioned the marriage of the two families recently.

After Shen Zhengguang's marriage, there were successive homecoming banquets and confession banquets, which did not gradually stop until late March.

On this day, Huo Zhen was busy with the matter at hand, booked a box in Lanyue Tower, invited He Lanzhen and Yang Qian to dinner, and after the meal, he booked the play of Fengxiang's class.

Xiao Huai happened to pass by the Ministry of Rites, and heard that Yang Qian was going to an appointment, and when he heard the news, he also went to eat, but this was not all, and someone came to call Shen Xi as well.

When Shen Xi heard that Huo Zhen had called Yang Qian, he couldn't help but laugh secretly, is this planning to coax the future brother-in-law over first?

This place was packed up, and he was about to go out, but he suddenly received a letter from Li Chen, a guard who went to track down Lingyun Pavilion.

Lingyun Pavilion and his party to the southwest had already arrived in Yunnan, and as soon as they arrived, they went straight to a small mountain villa called Bulu Town, and stayed at the post station with their hidden identity.

The matter is important, but it can't spoil their interest, lest Xiao Huai run back again, so he deduces that he is unhappy and will not go.

I sat alone in the room for a long time, and then took out the file of Prince Cheng's Mansion that I had sorted out a few days ago.

Then she called Qi Jiu.

"Is there any more news from Lingyun Pavilion these days?" she asked.

"Nope. Qi Jiu shook his head, "It's the Mu family who came to the news, saying that Shi Di has been complaining about Han Dun to the outside world recently, and Han Dun was sent to the mansion by Mrs. Bi a few days ago to speak." When I came back, I didn't seem to be looking very good, and I guess it wasn't a good thing. ”

Shen Xi didn't say anything after hearing this, just remained silent.

Qi Jiu said: "Is something wrong?"

Shen Xi frowned and handed her the letter in his hand: "The people of Lingyun Pavilion rushed straight over. It looks like the target is accurate, and I'm thinking, could it be that there really are Helian people there?"

Qi Jiu also looked solemn after reading it.

She said, "It's not necessarily true, as you said before, it's also likely to be Hanton's conspiracy." ”

"It could indeed be a conspiracy. She exhaled, "But if it's a conspiracy, why would Han Dun point to the location of the conspiracy in Yunnan?"

"Xu Jing also died in Yunnan, I'm not afraid of Han Dun's conspiracy, what I'm afraid of is whether Yunnan really has anything to do with the Helian people?"

When Qi Jiu heard this, he was also amazed.

If Han Dun wanted to lure Shen Xi into being fooled without any grounds, then why did he have to go so far to Yunnan?

Moreover, although Lingyun Pavilion is directly under the control of Empress Dowager Zheng, after all, it is also within the twelve guards of the pro-army.

At the moment, Liang Xiu and Han Dun have a relationship, if they find out that something is wrong, how can they be willing to be used as a pawn by Han Dun?

In this way, there must be a reason why Han Dun chose Yunnan.

"But why does it have anything to do with Xu Jing?" she said.

"Even if Xu Jing passed away in Yunnan, it may not have anything to do with the later war, let alone the Helian people after so many years.

"Are you suspecting that he wants to use Xu Jing's death because of the matter in the Xu family's cemetery?

"For example, if you fabricate some signs with half-truths and half-truths, so that Lingyun Pavilion has to cooperate with him to force you to reveal your true form with the mentality that you would rather kill by mistake than let go?"

"All his plots against me must have been to get me into the quagmire of the Helians. Shen Xi said, "But what I want to say now is more than that.

"Except that he may have really caught the Helian people by luring the people of Lingyun Pavilion to Yunnan, I am still wondering if there is still a mystery in Xu Jing that I have not solved. ”

Speaking of this, she raised her head: "I still think that the person who helped Wen Chan smooth out the traces in the past must have some purpose for me, otherwise why would he help Wen Chan kill me?"

"And it is certain that this person has something to do with Prince Cheng's mansion.

"I am a close neighbor to Prince Cheng at most, if he wants to target Prince Cheng's mansion, then why should he want me to die?

"Originally, I didn't figure it out, but I suddenly thought that the death of Great Qin may be related to this person's desire to take revenge on Prince Cheng's mansion.

"Because Prince Cheng is a clan relative, stabbing one of his young sons to death caused an uproar, if this person really has a deep blood feud and wants to slash Prince Cheng, then wouldn't the best way be to bring down the entire Great Qin?

"Daqin is dead, isn't Prince Cheng's Mansion over?"

When Qi Jiu heard this, his mind was only left to follow her in circles. "You mean, he helped Wen Chan kill you back then, and his ultimate goal was to drag down Great Qin? But this is too-"

It's incredible.

It is not so easy to bring down a dynasty.

Shen Xi was also silent, but her eyebrows and eyes were still full of seriousness: "Back then, the Zhang family was the most powerful and prestigious family in Great Qin, and my father was even the first assistant of the dynasty.

"And the Xu family controls the Governor's Mansion of the Chinese Army, although the power is not as good as the current Yanwang Mansion, but it is also a first-class nobleman with real power in Great Qin.

"My marriage with Xu Jing is formed, which is equivalent to forming an alliance with the leading civil and military generals of the dynasty.

"What's more, the queen at that time was still my cousin, and Empress Xiao's maiden family was also my mother's maiden family.

"If I don't die, but marry the Xu family, it will be equivalent to the court forming a solid triangle, and no one will be able to destroy this interest group.

"At that time, the court situation has not yet reached the point of hopelessness, if the Zhang and Xu families join forces to control the court, eliminate the maladministration, and reverse the reverse trend of Daqin, there is a probability of more than seven or eighty percent!"

Qi Jiu was already stunned when he heard this!

She just cares about the government and politics, but when she says this, she also has a sense of sudden enlightenment.

"And the Zhang family has only one daughter, if I die, the Zhang family will not have a young lady to marry into the Xu family.

"With Xu Jing's dead heart, I died suddenly, and it is probably impossible for him to accept another marriage in a short time. ”

Shen Xi took a slow breath at this time and said.

"Originally, I didn't think so, but when I thought that Xu Jing was accidentally infected with the epidemic and died just five years after my death, this is equivalent to not only me dying, but even the most promising and capable children of the Xu family also died, which is not a big loss for the Xu family and even Daqin. ”
