He didn't have that compassionate temperament, but he only hoped that his men could live this life in peace, even if it was at the cost of other sacrifices.

On the other side, Xiao Ji followed the direction of Hu Baicheng's news and led people to check, and sure enough, he found his long-missing subordinate in a hidden cave.

"Master, how did you find here?" Bai Ye, the person in charge of the Huaishui Department, was a little surprised, and looked at Xiao Ji, with a little more tentative in his tone.

"I don't need to say more about this, you answer my question first, why are you staying here?" Xiao Ji was too lazy to delay the time on that kind of boring question, and watched Bai Ye speak.

"We were deceived by someone," Bai Ye was angry at the mention of this matter, "Someone lied about your news, saying that you were in trouble, so we all went out here to look for you, but we unfortunately fell into their trap and were trapped here, and we couldn't do without it." ”

"Isn't this kind of information carefully verified?" Xiao Ji didn't expect this reason to be so simple, and his tone unconsciously carried a little anger.

The subordinates who can stay here in Huaishui are all carefully selected and beyond ordinary people in all aspects, if even they can be deceived by these fake news, doesn't it mean that there are loopholes around him?

"It's because we missed the check." Bai Ye knew that he was not doing well, so he was quite ashamed to speak.

"Go back and get your punishment." Moshu was afraid that Xiao Ji would be angry, so he hurriedly spoke.

Xiao Ji didn't speak, snorted coldly, and turned around to leave here.

"It's not good!" Mo Shu glared at Bai Ye, and then hurriedly caught up with Xiao Ji.

"Prepare the horses quickly, let's hurry to the capital." Xiao Ji always felt that something was wrong with this matter inside and out, and he didn't want to say anything, so he turned over and rushed back to the Huaishui Department.

In the Xiao Mansion, Cheng Shuiyao was relaxing outside.

A feathered arrow shot out of nowhere suddenly pierced her shoulder, and blood flowed profusely.

"Madame!" Xiaoyun was stunned by this sudden change, and there was irrepressible panic in his tone.

"Leave me alone, go chase people first." Cheng Shuiyao covered her shoulders and frowned in the direction of the man's escape.

The secret guards in the palace hurriedly dispatched and quickly chased after them.

"I'll get you a doctor." Xiaoyun glanced at Cheng Shuiyao's wound and hurriedly ran away.

Cheng Shuiyao leaned against the wall on the side, a little dizzy because of excessive blood loss.

However, she knew that if she stayed here, she would definitely suffer a more serious situation next, so she gritted her teeth and entered Xiao Zhenheng's house.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Zhenheng was sitting at the table, looking at Cheng Shuiyao who suddenly entered the door, with a little more doubt in his eyes.

"Assassin." Cheng Shuiyao only had time to say these two words before she fainted.

Xiao Zhenheng saw the blood on her shoulder, and hurriedly asked the maid to help Cheng Shuiyao to lie on the bed.

"Not good!" Before Xiao Zhenheng could take a breath, he instantly realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly entered Moqi's room.

There was still residual warmth on the empty bed, and looking at the traces of the fighting around him and the blood on the ground, he knew that there had been a fierce battle here.

"The sound is striking the west, Prime Minister, you really have a good calculation," Xiao Zhenheng couldn't guess that this was the Prime Minister's handiwork, and his eyes were instantly extremely cold.

Since the prime minister is so unkind, then don't blame him for being unjust.

"Someone!" Xiao Zhenheng opened his mouth, looked at the subordinates who appeared in an instant, and said coldly, "Go and blow up a jade mine for the prime minister, if he doesn't let people go, up until it's clean." ”

"Yes," the subordinate nodded, knowing that the situation was urgent, and hurriedly left the place.

The emperor will definitely know about the bombing of the jade mine, and when the time comes, the prime minister's ambition will not be hidden, and he will not believe that the prime minister will take such a big risk to force him to submit to the Xiao family.

At this time, Moqi was thrown into a box by five flowers and was secretly being sent to the palace.

The prime minister took a look at the carriage with ink chess, and felt a little proud in his heart.

Ren Xiao Zhenheng wouldn't have guessed that he would leave someone here, as long as the emperor knew about it first, he would be able to expose the identity of the impostor

At that time, he can solve Xiao Ji effortlessly and remove obstacles to his great cause.

The more I thought about it, the more excited I felt, and the prime minister sat in the carriage home, with irrepressible excitement in the corners of his eyes.

But the excitement didn't last long when he suddenly heard an explosion in the suburbs.

The sound can travel so far that the range of the explosion is not too small.

The prime minister suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, and hurriedly lifted the curtain to look out.

That direction is......

The prime minister had a guess in his heart, and looked at the black smoke slowly rising in the distance in disbelief.

"Prime Minister, our jade mine has been blown up!"

Just when the prime minister was full of thoughts, his subordinates suddenly ran over to solve this guess.

"What!" The prime minister was shocked and forgot to suppress his voice, looking at his subordinates, his face was surprisingly ugly, "Do you know who did it?" ”

"It's Xiao Zhenheng," his subordinate hurriedly spoke, "He said that as long as you don't put Xiao Ji back, he will blow up as many mines as you want." ”

"This old horseman!" The prime minister slapped the door frame heavily, and he didn't care about the pain, and hurriedly shouted outside, "Change to Xiao Mansion!" ”

"Yes!" When the groom heard the voice of the prime minister, he knew that the prime minister was angry, and he didn't dare to say a word, so he directly let the carriage drive in the direction of Xiaofu.

rushed all the way to the Xiao Mansion, and the prime minister didn't care about pomp, so he got out of the carriage directly, looked at Xiao Zhenheng, who was waiting at the door early in the morning, and gritted his teeth and said, "Do you know what that means?" ”

"Of course I know, otherwise I wouldn't have blown it up," Xiao Zhenheng disdained this, and slowly looked up at the prime minister, "I'll give you another pillar of incense time, you have to think clearly, if you don't explain where Chu sent Xiao Ji, I will let all your net worth disappear!" ”

"Xiao Zhenheng, don't force me!" The prime minister didn't expect him to play so big, and there was a little more threat in his eyes, "Do you believe it or not, I'll let that person die right away?" ”

"Heh, you and I both know what that person's identity is, do you think I can afford to give up the opportunity to bring you down because of the life of a subordinate?" Xiao Zhenheng even laughed, looking at the prime minister's flushed face, his heart was indescribably happy.

He or the emperor knew everything about the prime minister, if it weren't for the trouble, the prime minister would not have lived in this world a long time ago.

Now that the prime minister wants to put his Xiao family to death, then don't blame him for the Xiao family's trouble.

"The person you want is in the palace," the prime minister finally took a step back and said coldly, "Now you can call your person back." ”
