Stop acting, Your Majesty, the queen knows you're faking it

Chapter 77 What is Xue Family Picture?
Yan Chujing was not angry when he heard the words, but just hooked the corners of his mouth noncommittally, and skipped the topic: "And then? What else did he ask you to do for him?"

He had some impressions of the side branch of the Xue family who was dispatched to Qingyun Town.It was a powerful character, and Xue Qin also valued it. Since he acted with a purpose, what he did was by no means a trivial matter.

But Chen Jingshan's answer was unexpected.

"There's nothing else." He gave Yan Chujing a cold look, "I really don't like Mr. Xue's family today, and I admit that I misread Xue's family before. But everything counts, and I won't Made it up indiscriminately, apart from helping the common people as a green forest, County Magistrate Xue did not instruct me to do anything else."

"Are you serious?" Yan Chujing raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Stealing the rich and helping the poor together with a few bandits is the whole plan of the county magistrate Xue?During this process, he gained neither fame nor profit, and even took the risk of violating the court laws. What is he trying to do?
Both Yan Chujing and Chi Xinian instinctively felt that it was Chen Jingshan who was still hiding it.

But without waiting for them to ask, Chen Jingshan said: "Since I promised to tell you, I didn't intend to lie to you. The fact is like this, if you don't believe me, there is nothing I can do."

After saying that, he closed his eyes, and leaned against the torture rack behind him to rest.

The old injury and the exhaustion of the day made him drowsy at the moment of relaxation.

Seeing him like this, Yan Chujing and Chi Xinian couldn't help but look at each other.

"It doesn't look like he's telling a lie?" After a moment of hesitation, Chi Xinian took the lead in breaking the silence, "Liars tend to tense up to deal with everything because they are afraid of being spotted by others. But he looks very Relax, this feeling is like…”

"It's like letting go of all the troubles after telling the secret in your heart." Yan Chujing took her words in a timely manner, and continued, "Looking at him like this, he probably has already revealed the secret in his heart."

Thinking of this, the two fell into a moment of silence.

After a while, it was Yan Chujing who took the lead to break the deadlock: "Since we have already asked the question, let's leave the person to the dark guard to watch. It's getting late, you and I should go back...home."

"Well, good." Chi Xinian nodded and followed.

When she left, she turned her head several times and looked at the person leaning on the shelf.

He still drooped his head, as if he had fallen asleep.

...

The setting sun was like blood, and the golden-red sunlight fell on the glazed tiles, reflecting a splendor.

After Yan Chujing brought Chi Xinian back to the palace, he did not go back to his own Lingyun Palace, but took advantage of the opportunity to settle down and eat at Chi Xinian's Fengqi Palace, and threatened that he would stay in Fengqi Palace today.

Chi Xinian happened to still have some thoughts in her heart, since he wanted to take the initiative to stay, she obeyed his wishes and led him to the study after dinner.

"If Your Majesty has any memorials to review, you can work here." Chi Xinian served a cup of hot tea, and then sat down with a small stool beside Yan Chujing, "If not, I would like to talk to you about today's matter chat."

"What do you want to say?" Yan Chujing picked up the teacup and took a sip, his clear gaze fell on her face without turning away for a moment.

This is, to concentrate on listening to her.

"When I was leaving, I took another look at Chen Jingshan. He still looked relaxed, showing no flaws." She pursed her lips, "From my experience, he really didn't lie. But if he I'm not lying, what do you think that county magistrate Xue is thinking?"
