Reborn as the first poisonous concubine

Chapter 352: Eight Friends of Luoyang 3
The few people present did not continue to exchange greetings, but they talked about Houyan's request to Dayin to send troops this time!
Both Xie You'an and Fan Yan agreed with Xiao Jingyao and the Holy Master's request to send troops to assist Hou Yan, but Qi Kuo frowned slightly, pondered for a moment and said: "Hou Yan is also on the border of my Dayin, although the national power is slightly weaker, but he is coveting Dayin, I'm afraid that their request for assistance this time is false, and it is true that they took the opportunity to sneak attack on my Dayin!"

The reason why Qi Kuo said this is because they already knew that Princess Houyan came to Dayin pretending to be a herdsman, learned the whereabouts of King Luoyang, and tried to arrest the prince to coerce Dayin to send troops...

From this point of view, Houyan's sincerity is insufficient, and it is not difficult to understand why the Holy One refused to send troops to help Houyan!

"If Hou Yan really made up his mind to sneak attack, he wouldn't just put drugs in the wine, but poison!" Xiao Jingyao said lightly.

Qi Kuo was taken aback, Xie You'an and Fan Yan nodded, agreeing with Xiao Jingyao's statement.

"That's right, after we fled that night, although they had been chasing after us at full speed, they didn't surprise us... On the contrary, another group of people lay in ambush and fired arrows at us. The purpose is very clear, that is, to assassinate Luoyang. King!" Wei Zijin spoke slowly, thinking of that soul-stirring night, still can't help but feel lingering fear!
Although Xiao Jingyao pulled out that arrowhead by himself, she could already see clearly through the moonlight that the arrowhead definitely did not belong to Houyan, but from their Dayin!

Someone from Dayin wanted to assassinate Xiao Jingyao, and he must be someone of high authority!

"Has the assassin been caught?" Hearing Wei Zijin mention the assassin, the faces of the people present became a little dignified, and they began to think carefully, who is the one who most wants to secretly assassinate the King of Luoyang!
"My king has already sent people to investigate. I believe there will be news soon!" Xiao Jingyao said in a deep voice. Before he got the exact news, he couldn't be sure who was the culprit who assassinated him!

"Perhaps we can find clues from the prince's servants in the Imperial Palace!" Xie You'an suggested again, this time, Qi Kuo did not disagree with Xie You'an again, and nodded in agreement.

"You'an's words are reasonable. Since there are spies in the palace, the spies must be inserted by the culprit behind the scenes!"

Xiao Jingyao remained silent. He had asked Qiuyue and the old housekeeper to thoroughly investigate the spies in the mansion. It has been some time now, but there is still no news. I am afraid that this matter will be a bit tricky!

Unknowingly, he planted spies in his mansion, and sent someone to ambush him on the way he left the imperial capital. That person actually hid so deeply...

"My lord, why don't you set off immediately and return to the Imperial Capital? Since the culprit behind the scenes can place the spies in the Imperial Palace, it means that the person is also in the Imperial Capital!" Qi Kuo suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked thoughtfully: "Perhaps that person is really someone close to the Holy Majesty, or maybe... otherwise, how would he know the whereabouts of the lord clearly?"

"The people around the Holy Majesty..." After Qi Kuo finished speaking, everyone including Wei Zijin fell into silence.

The closest people around Xiao Heng are only a few civil servants, a few royal family members, and the concubine Duan!

But the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, so it is absolutely impossible for Xiao Heng to tell Concubine Duan about political affairs!Since Concubine Duan didn't know, it couldn't be Lu Ziliang who was favored by Zhongshu Ling!
