Chapter 272 Who Assassinated 1

Chapter 272 Who Assassinated 1
Seeing his solemn expression, Wei Zijin's heart trembled inexplicably, and he didn't dare to think carefully whether he was just joking, or was he really thinking about letting her agree with him!
After a moment of silence, Wei Zijin finally avoided his words, and said with frowned eyebrows: "Let's get down to business, the whole thing that happened tonight is very weird..."

Xiao Jingyao was well aware of her deliberately changing the subject, and did not intend to force her to answer now, so he followed her words and replied, "That's right, since Princess Houyan led people to come to my Dayin pretending to be ordinary herdsmen, it means that this matter happened early. There is a conspiracy!"

Wei Zijin nodded, remembering that Houyan Princess Murong Lanying wanted to take Xiao Jingyao as a hostage just now, and he was still a little scared: "Their target is you, but you are not patrolling in disguise, why would Houyan's people know your whereabouts?"

This was the doubt that flashed in her mind just now, but now that she thinks about it again, she feels that something is not quite right!When Xiao Jingyao left the Imperial Capital this time, he almost didn't attract anyone's attention, and he didn't bring anyone with him, but how did Princess Houyan know about Xiao Jingyao's whereabouts? !

"Xiao Jingyao, who knows about your tour this time?"

Xiao Jingyao's brows were also tightly frowned, and he said in a deep voice: "This time I left Beijing to do business for the emperor, apart from the emperor, only the people in the palace know..."

Wei Zijin's heart skipped a beat, and he almost blurted out: "Could it be that the emperor wants to take this opportunity to put you to death?"

Xiao Heng's suspicion has always been very heavy, otherwise he would not have treated her Li family cruelly, and her father who was a hero who founded the country, not to mention Xiao Jingyao, as the king of Luoyang, who holds military power and won the hearts of the people...

Even when they were fighting for the throne, there were many talented people who lobbied Xiao Jingyao, thinking that Xiao Jingyao was a rare talent for the emperor, but at that time Xiao Jingyao stood wholeheartedly on the side of their Li family and Xiao Heng, not only had no intention of fighting for the throne, but also Take the initiative to lead the troops and fight a bloody way for Xiao Heng to ascend to the throne!
She knows how capable Xiao Jingyao is, and Xiao Heng may not know it... If Xiao Heng became suspicious of Xiao Jingyao and worried that Xiao Jingyao would take away his power, even if Xiao Jingyao was his cousin, Xiao Heng would not soften his heart!
"Why do you think so?" Xiao Jingyao didn't expect Wei Zijin to make such an analysis, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Wei Zijin also felt that his tone seemed a little impatient, but he didn't want Xiao Jingyao to see anything, so he pretended to be calm and replied: "You have a high position and authority now, and the emperor is very suspicious, it's only natural to be jealous of you!"

Xiao Jingyao looked at Wei Zijin thoughtfully for a moment, always feeling that there was something else hidden in her words.Xiao Heng was indeed very suspicious and tried him several times, but how could Wei Zijin know Xiao Heng so well? !

Could it be Shen Rui, or the general Wei Ning who accidentally revealed something to her? !
With Wei Zijin's intelligence, it is not impossible to deduce from their words that Xiao Heng is suspicious!
Xiao Jingyao didn't continue to ask her what she meant by saying these words, but nodded and said: "That's the case, but if the emperor is suspicious of me, he won't let me go back to my fief Luoyang, but detain me in the imperial capital, so The assassination this time was not ordered by the emperor... What's more, the emperor doesn't have to use Houyan's hand to deal with me!"
