Chapter 141 Knowing a lot

"But...you must have known it already, so naturally you won't worry any more." Xu Jiao was about to thank Jing Qin with a smile when he heard his tone of voice cold and authentic.

Xu Jiao choked, and looked up at him in a daze.

Jing Qin still had that gentle appearance, and his tone of voice was lightly smiling, "I didn't know until I went that you and Your Highness the Eldest Princess had already visited."

"Oh... Isn't it rumored in the street? I went to the princess's mansion, and my mother asked me about it, and she had to explain a few words. I explained it to my mother. Then my mother took me to the door to thank Governor Helian on the pretext of visiting a sick person."

"Do you know that He Lianshu has been very close to the prince of Yongjun since that day at the racecourse in the western suburbs? Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, has never asked about court affairs, but she once fought with the late emperor in the north and south, and fought for the king. Wei Li has made great contributions and has great prestige in the army, what does it mean for her to be in Helianshu's door and in the eyes of those who care?" Jing Qin suddenly changed the subject and said seriously.

Xu Jiao's face changed slightly as he listened, "I don't know about these things...but mother has no other intentions, she just wants to thank Governor Helian."

"Simple? You probably think that things are so simple, and you are the only one!" Jing Qin said.

Xu Jiao's expression darkened, bit his lower lip, and stopped talking.

She is a little clever, but if you want to talk about great wisdom and political awareness...she really doesn't have it.Just like what Jing Qin said just now, the eldest princess never asked about court affairs, and He Lianshu and Yang Jun got close to these things, she didn't care, so naturally she didn't know.She came into this world, and until now, all she wanted was to live in peace, and to live as comfortably as possible as conditions allowed.

Even if she was concerned about the assassination case, it was because the matter was related to Xu Yi and Jing Qin, and both Xu Yi and the Jing family were her umbrellas, and she could not stay out of it.

As for the others...it has nothing to do with her at all.She thought it had nothing to do with her, until now, that fig leaf was mercilessly pierced and exposed by Jing Qin, forcing her to face up to the fact that she was deceiving herself.

She is already in the game, and everyone around her is in the game, so how can it have nothing to do with her?
Seeing that Xu Jiao's face turned pale, Jing Qin couldn't bear it, and said softly, "I'm not blaming you for telling you this, and it's useless to blame you right now. I'm afraid His Royal Highness the Princess also has her considerations, so it's up to you." The same goes for He Lianshu. But Ajiao...you must think more when you act in the future. Behind you, there is the Jing family and the eldest princess. Your every move is not just about you. Do you understand? "

This was the first time Jing Qin called her "Ajiao" instead of "Second Sister", and he was so earnest...

Xu Jiao raised his eyes and looked up at Shang Jingqin's pair slightly raised, with two peach blossoms, but at this moment they were very deep eyes, pressing thousands of complicated thoughts at the bottom of the eyes, and said obediently, "Second brother, I Remember."

Seeing this, Jing Qin softened his face and tone, "It's good that you know. But because of what happened last night, Governor Helian was a blessing in disguise. The Deyuelou assassin case, which has never been cracked before, has made progress. "

"Did the Jie clan do it?" Xu Jiaoming asked knowingly.

"Yes! Those assassins couldn't stand the torture of the police guards, and all they could recruit were recruited. They are criminals from Beijie, and they all committed capital crimes. One day, a nobleman from Beijie gave them a chance to let them If they obey the arrangement and become that person's dead soldiers, they can escape from Beijiao's death row, they can win the chance of life, and they can also earn a lot of money for their families. They are not fools, so naturally they know what to do. What choice."

"The mark under the collarbone of those people..." Xu Jiao subconsciously said, and realized that he might have said something wrong when he said it.

Sure enough, Jing Qin looked at her, narrowed his eyes slightly, "Unexpectedly, A-Jiao knows quite a lot." This mouthful of A-Jiao's yelling became more and more fluent.Even though they have the same face as Jing Duo, why is it that this person is calling Ajiao, so she can't feel at ease at all?It seems that Tang Seng has recited the magic spell.

Xu Jiao pinched his palms, and smiled heartlessly, "I went to see Governor Helian this morning, and I overheard him telling my mother that there is a mark under the collarbone of the assassin."

"Hmm!" Jing Qin nodded, not knowing whether he believed it or not, "Indeed, but that's not a mark, it's the death row inmates from Beijie who mark that place, and the death row marks of these people are all erased gone."

"So that's how it is." Xu Jiao nodded his head, and carefully glanced at Jingqin's face, but... he couldn't see anything! "Then who is that noble man from Beijie? And why did he assassinate Mr. Li Erlang and Governor Helian? Those assassins have all been recruited?" Xu Jiao hurriedly asked because of guilty conscience and genuine concern.

Jing Qin shook his head, "These people don't know the identity of the nobleman, and they don't even know his appearance. Everyone who sees the nobleman wears a mask. It's hard to say if it's the same person. As for why they killed him?" Mr. Li Erlang and Governor Helian don't know anything about it. They just accept orders, and they are not qualified to know the deeper secrets."

"However, this nobleman must have a high position in Beijie, otherwise how could he easily take so many death row prisoners for his own use?"

"That's for sure. Then, Ajiao felt, why did such a high-ranking nobleman in Beijie go to great pains to send a dead man from a thousand miles away to assassinate a man from the Jiedu envoy's mansion, and a man who had just ascended to the throne?" Your minister?"

"If the assassination of Mr. Li Erlang was to sow dissension and cause civil strife in Wei, so that Bei Jie could take advantage of the gap, then why did he assassinate the governor of Helian? I really can't understand it." Jing Qin said at the same time. As he spoke, his eyes fell on Xu Jiao's face.

Xu Jiao's heart was beating like a drum, but his face was full of doubts and embarrassment, "Second brother really thinks highly of me, you can't figure out the reason, how would I know? It should be the same, just In order to make our internal chaos!"

Seeing her like this, Jing Qin raised the corners of his lips and smiled slightly, "Yes, it's a bit too embarrassing for you to ask this question for someone who doesn't care about these things, but Ajiao, use your brain more in the future. It doesn't hurt to think about these things. After all, you are Princess Yingyue."

Another meaningless sentence.

"Also, be extra wary of people. It is essential to guard against others. Not everyone is as harmless as they appear on the surface, and they are good people."

These words have some meaning.

Xu Jiao's heart was like a mirror, but on the surface he was obedient, nodded obediently and said, "Thank you for the teaching, second brother, I will remember it in my heart, and I will never forget it."

Seeing her like this, Jing Qin choked with anger for a moment, but couldn't say anything more. After a while, he said, "Then rest, I'll go back too."

As he spoke, he took a step forward.

"Second brother, I'll see you off!"
