Chapter 296: Persuasion
Xiao Chi couldn't help but glance at Shen Ke when he heard this, he had seen this eldest son of the Shen family before, he was relied on by the prince at a young age, and he also had a bit of face in front of the saint, and with the Shen family's family background behind, he was also one of the best people in Beijing.
Although he did not have a deep friendship after entering Beijing, Jiang Yuzhu had asked him to secretly manipulate the Shen family several times, and even when he saw Shen in the polo field on the outskirts of Beijing, he was cold.
But now when Xue Nuo is mentioned, his eyes are extremely gentle.
Xiao Chi only thought that the two of them fell in love and didn't think much about it, not only lamenting Xue Nuo's luck, but also glad that the Shen family could protect Xue Yu after the accident.
He said: "No matter what, I have to thank you and the prince's men for their mercy this time, otherwise I am afraid I will not be able to get out of that prison." ”
Shen shook his head: "Uncle Xie is the wrong person, it is Miss Xue who is unwilling to pursue it, and it is also she who stops Arnold and does not want to embarrass her uncle." ”
Xiao Chi's expression changed slightly: "Auntie..."
"Miss Xue said that the uncle has never treated her badly." Shen saw Xiao Chi's eyes moved, and asked him, "Uncle, you and Miss Xue are next?" ”
Xiao Chi's eyes were gloomy: "Auntie doesn't want to go back with me, I'm afraid she hates me very much." ”
Shen frowned when he heard this: "How come? If Miss Xue really hated you, she would not have interceded for you before the saint, and she would not see you today. ”
"Although our Shen family is all literati, it is not that we can't help the uncle, as long as Miss Xue says that she doesn't want to meet, the uncle can't enter the gate of the Shen family today."
Seeing Xiao Chi look up at him suddenly, Shen said,
"I might as well tell my uncle the truth, after the accident in the hunting ground, my grandfather and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince both thought of taking advantage of this opportunity to pull you down and take away the power of the soldiers and horses in your hands."
"It was Miss Xue who interceded for you and persuaded the prince, and it was also she who proved that you did not go along with Jiang Yuzhu and them, but were only used by others, so His Royal Highness the prince stopped."
"You should know that Miss Xue and Arnold depend on each other, but last time Arnold in the racecourse on the outskirts of Beijing almost died, this time Jiang Yuzhu used my second brother to calculate that the Shen family almost took Arnold's life, and when Miss Xue was still in Jing'anbo Mansion earlier, she was also surrounded by the Jiang family's eyeliner, how can this make her not afraid?"
Xiao Chi looked stunned: "Jiang Yuzhu harmed Xue Nuo? ”
"Uncle doesn't know?"
Seeing Xiao Chi's eyebrows tightened, obviously as if he was completely unaware, Shen said directly, "Last time in the Beijing Suburb Polo Club, the so-called assassins who assassinated Lang Ke were related to Jiang Yuzhu, although I don't know his purpose so far, but those people did almost kill Arnold. ”
"Some time ago, Jiang Yuzhu led my second brother into the name of Lu Tao, and sent the poisonous ink strip into the Shen family and fell into the hands of Arnold, if it weren't for the prince who happened to bring it into the palace, this time when he searched the things around the Inner Court Division and His Majesty, he was detected by the imperial doctor, I am afraid that Arnold would have been killed by him."
Shen was talking and talking, seeing Xiao Chi's extremely ugly expression, he couldn't help frowning and wondering:
"Uncle Xiao, I see that you have a good relationship with Jiang Yuzhu, and the people behind him must be very clear, don't you know until now, this assassination in Jiuli Mountain is also related to him?"
Xiao Chi's expression was gloomy.
He doesn't know!
Xiao Chi said in a cold voice: "Those assassins in the polo club last time, are they really related to him?" ”
Shen said: "Although there is no evidence, at least seven or eight percent are sure. He paused and said, "I thought that Uncle knew about this last time he was with him, and Miss Xue also thought that you hurt Arnold." ”
"I didn't!"
Xiao Chi's expression was gloomy, "I have no grievances with Xue Nuo, and I can't escape the crime of the four camps in the suburbs of Beijing, not to mention that Lang Ke has the grace to support me." ”
"After Lang Ke's death, I have been tracking down the people who murdered him in the first place, and the last time I accidentally learned that those people would appear on the outskirts of Beijing when they entered Beijing, I hurried over, Jiang Yuzhu ......"
Jiang Yuzhu met him by chance, and only said that he would go with him at that time, but now he knows that he is clearly here to stop him.
No wonder those Assassins "disappeared" that day!
No wonder he searched the entire horse farm and made people cordon off all around, but he couldn't find those people!
Shen Keyan's expression was full of surprise when he heard this: "No wonder, I said that if those assassins are really related to the uncle, how can you lead troops to arrest your own people." In this way, I am afraid that the uncle will not know about the matter of Jiuli Mountain this time. ”
"They acted rashly and caused such a big disaster, even if Your Majesty was touched by someone, even the uncle ......"
Shen didn't finish his words when he spoke, but he just said as if he didn't want to speak,
"If it weren't for Arnold's desperate rescue that day, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince happened to pass by, I'm afraid that everyone present would not be able to escape, and he colluded with King Xiling to murder the holy driver, even if the uncle had a deep hatred with him, it was worth such a ruthless fight."
Xiao Chi listened to Shen Ke's words and remembered the events in the forest that day, the she-bear that pestered him, and the wild wolf that kept biting Emperor Tianqing, and his back was cold.
"Jiang! Bring up! Bamboo! I have never harmed him, so why would he harm me? ”
"Who let you get in the way of him?"
Xue Nuo didn't know how long he had been listening to the door, and suddenly spoke up, "Since they sent people into the racecourse during the polo club, they must have a plan, and you brought people over to ruin their good deeds, if those assassins are really related to the people who murdered Lang Ke, then Lang Ke's death in the first place has nothing to do with Jiang Yuzhu and them." ”
"You hold the military power in Beijing and manage the defense of Gyeonggi, so they are secretly helping you today."
"They pushed you up because they wanted a puppet who could take charge of their soldiers, when this puppet refused to obey and repeatedly ruined their good deeds, and even couldn't control it, who could tolerate you?"
Xiao Chi suddenly remembered that Jiang Yuzhu had persuaded him several times not to investigate the cause of Lang Ke's death.
Xue Nuo leaned against the door with Shen Ke's cloak and said coldly: "I thought you were a raccoon dog before, but I didn't think you were so stupid, no wonder people can send all the people who hurt you to your nose." ”
Xiao Chi raised his eyes: "What do you mean?" ”
Shen sighed beside him: "Uncle, do you know that there is a maid named Qiu'er in your house?" ”
Of course, Xiao Chi knew that she was the closest girl to Xue Yan's side.
Shen said: "After Miss Xue came to the Shen family, she was worried that something would happen to the girl, so she begged me to bring her to the Shen family, but who knew that when my people went, they saw that she was soft and wanted to escape. ”
Xiao Chi's face changed.
"I know that my uncle may not believe it, but that Qiu'er is in the mansion now, if you are interested, you can ask."
The Hehuan Garden was very spacious, but Shen and they didn't bother Xue Yan, they only found a side room and asked Jiang Cheng to bring Qiu'er over.
After Qiu'er was blindfolded and gagged and pulled into the room, she screamed in fright.
After someone took the ribbon from her eyes and removed the stuff in her mouth, she saw Xiao Chi sitting in the room at a glance, and hurriedly cried: "Uncle, uncle, help!" ”
