The scumbag ex-husband knelt down to salute, and gritted his teeth to meet the emperor's aunt

Chapter 67 067: Conspiracy (3)

In the middle of the night, the courtyard was so quiet that one could clearly hear a needle drop.

Jiang Xi was sitting at the desk with a slightly lit candle, and there was a book in front of her.

"Girl, Aunt Zhu didn't do anything after the master left." Zhuying appeared in front of her with a respectful expression.

Jiang Xi paused slightly as he turned the pages of the book.

No action?
Judging from Jiang Yu's actions over the years, he seems to be hiding a certain secret.

This secret is related to the life and death of her mother.

In other words, Jiang Yu suspected that the blood collapse back then was not an accident, but man-made.

"Zhuying, can you talk about what happened back then in detail?" Jiang Xi looked up at Zhuying standing in front of him.

Seeing Zhuying's appearance, Jiang Xi continued, "I mean, can you tell me about the process of mother and Zhu's getting to know each other back then?"

"How did the Zhu family attract mother's attention back then?" Jiang Xi slightly raised her eyes to look at Chasing Shadow, "Do you still remember what happened back then?"

After thinking about it carefully, Zhuying said, "We met Mrs. Zhu in Weiyang City on the way to Chang'an. Back then, Mrs. Zhu sold herself to bury her father. At that time, there were gangsters in Weiyang City who wanted to embarrass Mrs. Zhu, but they were later forced by his wife. save."

At first glance, there seemed to be no loopholes in what Zhuying said, and Jiang Xi didn't notice anything wrong for a while.

Jiang Xi glanced at Chasing Shadow and signaled him to continue talking.

"Madam gave Mrs. Zhu some money to bury her husband. I thought this matter would end like this, but who would have thought that we would meet Mrs. Zhu in Chang'an later, and I heard that Mrs. Zhu was tricked into leaving her shadow and had nowhere to go..."

Zhuying paused a little at this point, "Madam is kind-hearted, and after discussing with the master, she will keep Mrs. Zhu, but who would have thought Mrs. Zhu would do such a thing."

Zhuying thumped the table heavily while talking, "Girl, do you think Madam was kind back then!"

After Zhuying finished speaking, Jiang Xi carefully analyzed everything.

According to Chasing Shadow, Mrs. Zhu should have been entrusted by someone to appear there.

Could the person behind it be the one who murdered her mother?

More importantly, Jiang Yu is still unknown who this person is.

Jiang Xi wrote down every key word, trying to connect them together. Even though she knew there was someone behind Zhu, she couldn't know how she contacted that person, let alone who the person behind her was.

"girl……"

Hearing the voice from Chasing Shadow, Jiang Xi waved his hand at him, "You step back first, it seems that the reason why my father kept Zhu's family is for its own use, so I will let it take its course."

Speaking of this, she sighed softly, "The top priority is the matter of Nanyue, you ask other people to investigate, and I will notify you when I think of important people."

Looking at Chaying's disappearing figure, Jiang Xi wrote down a few key words on the paper in front of him.

Beijing, Nanyue, He Lianrong, and a character she couldn't think of she directly wrote two question marks.

Jiang Xi is still not sure about the northern border, but if there is no accident, it should be during this period of time.

Although the northern border was not lost in the previous life, it was at the expense of General Han, Han Da, and Han Er losing a leg. She will definitely try her best to save Han Ningxiao's family.

Jiang Xi didn't know much about He Lianrong.

He is a brave and skilled general of Nanyue, about the same age as Jiang Xuan, but he has never fought against each other on the battlefield.

She had heard Gu Zhanheng mention some of He Lianrong's origins, like the illegitimate son of a prince in Nanyue, and she had never heard of his biological mother.

After Jiang Xi thought about it, she placed three exclamation marks next to He Lianrong.

It would be great if she didn't put all her mind on Gu Zhanheng in her previous life, so that she could recall some key plots.

When did this incident in the North happen?And when did it end?She can't remember clearly.

Now I can only sigh with emotion, love brain kills people.

Jiang Xi sat at the desk with her head propped on one hand, the faint candlelight swaying in the wind, elongating the shadow on the ground.

She took a nap with her eyes closed, carefully recalling her previous life and the plot of the original book in her mind, but unfortunately she had almost forgotten the plot of the original book.

Jiang Xi put her hand under the candlestick, and she didn't wake up until the candle oil dripped on her hand.

Looking at the red spot on the back of her hand, she continued to close her eyes and take a nap.

Compared with this little candle oil, the inhuman pains she encountered in her previous life were the inhuman pains, which she would never forget, nor would she dare to forget.

Even for a moment.

Jiang Xi fell asleep lying on the desk. She dreamed about many things in her previous life, and finally saw that blurred figure again.

Unlike before, the previous black hair seemed to turn into white hair overnight.

The morning is like a green silk, and the evening turns into snow.

That person called her name softly, over and over again, but she still couldn't see that face clearly.

In this room, Gu Jinzhou woke up from the nightmare.

I don't remember clearly what happened in the dream, but I only remember the sad voice of the person in the dream, over and over again.

He could clearly hear the man calling his name:
——Xiaoxiao.

Xiaoxiao, Jiang Xi's small print.

He faintly felt that the person in the dream seemed to be inextricably related to Jiang Xi.

After he closed his eyes, he was in that misty world again.

He vaguely saw that figure still sitting there fishing calmly, but he clearly saw that there was no food on the hook.

"Master..." Gu Jinzhou looked at the figure in front of him and whispered.

"Miss Jiang San, she..."

"I already know everything that happened outside of you." A hoarse voice came from over there, "Qianfan, do you really like Miss Jiang San?" He coughed heavily as he spoke.

"Master, is your body alright?" Gu Jinzhou showed concern, "Master, your body seems to be getting weaker and weaker. Why?"

"My body doesn't matter." He still coughed a few times while speaking.

"I like her." When Gu Jinzhou said this, his tone was firm, "I know she doesn't like me now, but I will try my best not to leave her alone."

When Jiang Xi was mentioned, Gu Jinzhou's eyebrows and eyes were stained with solemnity, "If she is destined to sink in hell, then I will accompany her."

The voice over there laughed softly when they heard Gu Jinzhou say this.

Gu Jinzhou's eyes widened in disbelief, "Master, did you laugh just now? Just because I like Miss Jiang San?"

Gu Jinzhou didn't know why, "Don't you think it's impossible for me and Miss Jiang to be together?"

"No, it's still the same sentence, you will definitely be together." The voice of the person over there was firm, "You will also be happy."

"Then I will live up to my master's hope!" Gu Jinzhou said with a little more smile this time.

"Qianfan, pay attention to the affairs of the northern border during this time, and investigate a man named Zhao Yue by the way. I don't remember his current identity clearly."

"Northern border? Isn't that the border land guarded by Duke Zhen?" Gu Jinzhou frowned.

"Is there something going on in the north? Is it Nanyue?" He stood up after speaking, "Master, how do you know?"

"The art of deduction." The voice on the other side came again, "Didn't I tell you before."

"It's true." Gu Jinzhou said and sat down again, "Before, master only cared about Miss Jiang San, but now he talks about the northern border. I'm sure I will be puzzled."

"The northern border borders Nanyue, and Nanyue's ambitions are well known in the world. Compared with the Northern Jin Dynasty, which borders the southern border, we must pay more attention to precautions." He coughed violently again as he spoke.

"I know you have a very close relationship with Han Ningtai, you should write to him and tell him to be careful with He Lianrong."

"He Lianrong?" Gu Jinzhou rubbed his chin and thought, "He is the God of War in Nanyue. I heard that he is as brave and good at fighting as General Jiang Xuan at a young age."

"Yes, he is the God of War in Nanyue, and he is as brave and good at fighting as General Xiao Jiang. They even have the same kung fu on horseback. It's a pity that the two have never fought against each other."

"I don't know who will be more powerful in a fight between the two of them." Gu Jinzhou said with great interest, "Do you think it will be Jiang Xuan or He Lianrong?"

"It's Miss Jiang San."

The voice from the opposite side made Gu Jinzhou startled, "Master, who are you talking about just now?"
