Chapter 339: The Truth
Xiao Chang sighed long, but he really didn't know what to do next. "Okay, you go down first, I want to stay alone!" Without Qin E by his side, Xiao Changxiu felt empty in his heart, and always felt as if something was missing.
There have been so many things happening in Xiao Mansion recently, and he has to wonder whether Qiang Bai'er is good or bad now.
"Black Hawk, I've made you some supper, eat it while it's hot! I've seen you running back and forth for the past two days, it's really hard! Come! This time it's a good time to make up for it! ”
Xiao Changxiu stared at Qiang Bai'er, who was a little busy, and his eyes suddenly panicked. "Bai'er! You sit down! Xiao Changxiu suddenly looked at Qiang Bai'er seriously.
It was the first time for Qiang Bai'er to see Xiao Changxiu so serious and serious, and sat down upright. "What's wrong? Black Hawk? ”
"Do you think it's a little strange about these things that have happened in the house recently?" Xiao Changxiu asked Qiang Bai'er in a consultative tone.
Qiang Bai'er nodded. "Of course, since then, the old lady was injured, and then on the way to pray for blessings, there was this incident again, which is hard not to make people suspicious, although I don't quite understand what is going on, but I think the other party must want something! Otherwise, how could it be so desperate? ”
"Then who do you think these men in black should have sent?" Xiao Changxiu nodded again and again when he heard what Qiang Bai'er said, and reminded Qiang Bai'er again. "These people are not from the Central Plains, and they seem to see it very clearly every time we are going to do something, do you think there will be some thieves in the house?"
"Thief? Black Hawk! Are you saying this is a skeptic? But there is no one in our house, who would do such a desperate thing to their own family, I think there are outsiders who do it, deliberately provoking the relationship between the Xiao family, and then taking advantage of the fisherman! ”
Xiao Changxiu stared at Qiang Bai'er, and it was natural to see that Qiang Bai'er said something. It didn't look like a person who had done such a thing, Xiao Changxiu suddenly doubted himself, and immediately diverted Qiang Bai'er's attention.
"It's okay! I just think it's really weird, but I don't know who it is, and now we're in Ming, we don't know what they're going to do next! ”
Seeing Xiao Changxiu like this, Qiang Bai'er was very caring, and grabbed Xiao Changxiu's hand at once. "Black Eagle, don't worry, although Madame can't be by your side now, but fortunately I am here, don't worry, no matter what you do, I will support you, something happens, we will face it together!" I'm not as smart as Madame, but I'll try to support you! ”
Seeing Qiang Bai'er look so stupid, Xiao Changxiu felt that he suspected the wrong person. "How could such a simple girl target the Xiao family! It seems that there are other people! Xiao Changxiu smiled and muttered to himself in his heart.
Xiao Shenye was suddenly summoned to the mansion by Chu Yan, "What has Lord Xiao been busy with lately?" It seems that after I retired to the court, Lord Xiao has never come to me, but you are still my father-in-law! Even if we don't have a relationship in the court, our relationship is still there! ”
"Second prince, you must have heard about the recent Xiao family, I really don't have time to come over, second prince, the relationship between us doesn't need to be reminded by the second prince, I know very well, but there have been too many things recently, so it's delayed!" Xiao Shen casually found a reason to prevaricate.
Chu Yan sneered even more when he heard it. "Haha... It seems that my father-in-law is really busy, is he busy looking for those killers to assassinate his nephew and daughter-in-law? ”
As soon as Chu Yan said this, Xiao Shen immediately knelt down in fear. "The second prince can't talk nonsense, Weichen has been conscientious, besides, the man in black recently assassinated my sister-in-law, and he also wanted to harm my little son-in-law, this... This... How could it be that I did it! How could I harm my own family! ”
Xiao Shen was so flustered that he didn't know how to explain it, he always felt that this Chu Yan seemed to know something. "Lord Xiao, what are you pretending to be high in front of me? Who are you, don't I still know? You found my people, go and disguise yourself as the lady of the Xiao family to assassinate the old lady! It's true! ”
"Second prince! You... You—" Xiao Shen pretended not to know anything.
"Don't pretend to be Lord Xiao! I've already found out about this matter, I know who this person is, do you want to bring that person in front of me now? Chu Yan was playing with the fan in his hand and glanced at Xiao Shen again.
Xiao Shen didn't know how to explain, so he could only kneel on the ground. "Okay, hurry up, don't be like this, don't you just want to be the master of the Xiao family? You do so much, don't you just want to replace Xiao Changxiu to manage the Xiao family? Right! I'm right! Chu Yan seemed to be able to see through people, and told the truth at once.
Xiao Shen was immediately stunned when he heard this, and could only continue to kneel on the ground.
"Lord Xiao, it's not that I said you, you don't have any brains at all, this is a little brainy, if you suspect the thief, you will definitely suspect you, in this Xiao family, you have always been at odds with Chang Xiu, do you think that if Chang Xiu doesn't say it, it means that he doesn't know in his heart? Let me tell you, he knows very well in his heart, if you let him grasp the handle, do you think you can still be in the Xiao family? ”
Although Chu Yan is not in the court now, he knows very well who Xiao Shen is, and he must take this opportunity to deal with their affairs well.
"Lord Xiao, I said, I have other plans, do you think I'm useless, so you want to consolidate your power on your own? Let me tell you, Lord Xiao, you are deceiving yourself! You even dare to use my people to disguise yourself as the lady of the Xiao family, you are causing trouble for me! ”
"Second Prince, you... That's what you say! It's not like this, Wei Chen has never thought about it like this, this incident is just an accident, I don't mean anything else, I just want Qin E to leave the Xiao family! Although she is my nephew and daughter-in-law, she treats us as an old couple with the attitude of a niece and daughter-in-law at all, so I just want to teach her a lesson! ”
Hearing that Xiao Shen was finally going to tell the truth, Chu Yan sat directly opposite Xiao Shen. "Didn't I warn you a long time ago, this Qin E is my person, you must not touch her! Are you taking my words as wind in your ears? Qin E is very important to us! You're even thinking of killing her? ”
