Chapter 402 See Through
The governor of the county is very anxious. Although he obeys Yuwen Changyi, he secretly thinks that this person is too cautious. The great task that could have been completed in a few days has been dragged on for a year. .

And now, he still has a lot of worries, as if he has no intention of making a move.

"Big Sima, what are you waiting for?"

Yuwen Changyi took the military order and looked at it for a long time, but didn't say a word, as if he didn't hear his words.

The county sheriff can't wait any longer, he is eager to get promoted and get rich.

It has been a year since I followed Yuwen Changyi. Apart from doing some frightening things, I have also gained a lot of benefits.

But it was still just some money and jewels, and the matter of promotion had to be discussed after he ascended the throne.

"In your house, the person who leaked the news, have you found out who it is?"

"This……"

The magistrate was at a loss for words, and after King Jing and his wife entered the palace, he put the matter aside for the time being.But it has not been found out who the traitor is.

"Hmph, you can't even do such a small thing well, and you still want to rely on me to get promoted? Liu Junshou, I have said it since the day you followed me. It is normal for people to have ambitions, but your ability must be worthy of yours. Only ambition."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

With a bang, the military order was suddenly thrown onto the table, which frightened the sheriff.

"Yes, I understand, I understand!"

In the early morning of the second day, the governor of the county spread the news in the mansion, saying that the king was seriously ill and the crown prince was already preparing for his enthronement.

At the same time, he deployed all kinds of spies in the dark to watch the people in the mansion, the more inconspicuous the people, the more closely they watched.

Sure enough, before noon, a sneaky person was caught.

This person is Qing Wu.

When Qing Wu heard the news that the lord was seriously ill, she felt uneasy, so she boldly called the carrier pigeon, and wanted to send a letter to ask Hai Feng whether the matter was true.

Haifeng is the imperial guard next to the king.

But before she could send the letter, she was caught by secret spies, and she got all the stolen goods.

"Haha, it turns out that the person who secretly informed you is you!"

Seeing that his mousetrap worked, the sheriff was overjoyed.

"If you want to kill or slash, please listen and respect."

Qing Wu made up her mind not to say a single word, she only hoped that he would give her a good time.

"Don't say it so cruelly, look at me, sir, do I look like that?"

Seeing that Qingwu was silent and ignorant, the county sheriff also put away his smile and turned solemn.

"It seems that you will not cry when you see the coffin! Tell me, do you have anything to do with those two people?"

Although it has been confirmed that Qing Wu is the ruler of the country, he is still not sure whether the two King Jing and Qing Wu know each other.

"Who are the two of you? Oh... You're talking about that stupid woman!"

Qing Wu let out a disdainful laugh.

"The two of them are just doctors brought in by the lord to make up the numbers. How can I have anything to do with them. Besides, don't I know the relationship between the two of them and your county governor?"

At this moment, the maid who had served Wang Yuetong before came up.

"Master, what Qing Wu said should be right. The lady lost her things before, and I suspected that she stole them."

With this maid's evidence, the governor believed Qing Wu's words.

"Then if this is the case, it's useless to keep you. Come, pull me down, and beat me to death with sticks!"

At this time, Wang Yuetong and King Jing were hiding in the dark secret passage, nearly two hours had passed.

Seeing her rubbing between her brows unceasingly, as if she was uncomfortable, King Jing held her hand tightly and gave her some comfort.

"Do you feel unwell?"

"No...it always feels like something is going to happen."

From the very beginning, she felt her heart beating like thunder and felt unwell all over.

"Don't think too much, with me here, nothing will happen."

Sensing her uneasiness at this moment, King Jing silently hugged her slender shoulders, let her head rest on his generous shoulders, and stroked her arms gently, as if coaxing someone.

"Cold?"

In the ground, it is inevitable that there will be cold air.

"not cold."

Wang Yuetong leaned on King Jing's body, and only then did she feel a lot more at ease.

He put all the things to keep out the cold on her body, and kept warming her hands with his warm palms to drive her away from the cold. She was almost sweating now.

"Are you worried about Qing Wu?"

After a while, King Jing suddenly spoke.

Suddenly being guessed right, Wang Yuetong couldn't help being taken aback.

"Could it be that you are thinking about this too?"

"We have already settled down with the lord, so we won't worry you so much. But Qing Wu, I think you care about her very much, but are you worried about her?"

King Jing's guess was accurate, she was indeed worried about Qing Wu.

Rather than worrying about her, it would be better to say that he was heartbroken about the relationship between her and Haifeng that might end without a cure.

"Honestly, I feel weird. Because, I feel the same way you do."

King Jing laughed lightly, as if he was laughing at himself for being too affectionate.

But the word love, throughout the ages, who can avoid it?
"I'm wondering whether all the feelings in the world will be tied down by the responsibilities."

"Then you figured it out?"

King Jing slightly tilted his head, her jet-black hair stuck to his lips, and a faint scent of medicine invaded his nostrils. This unique smell was never experienced by any woman.

And the feeling she gave him was something no woman could give.

"If I figure it out, I won't be so bothered now."

Wang Yuetong sighed softly, not sure if it was sighing Qingwu or herself.

"Yuetong."

"Ok?"

He rarely called her by her name, almost only when he was in love.

After subconsciously responding, she was slightly stunned.

"Life is rough, and things are impermanent. This is the truth I was born to understand. But I have never been afraid of these things. What I am afraid of is that in this turbulence, I will lose the thing I least want to lose."

Hearing what he meant, Wang Yuetong remained silent, but buried his head a little deeper silently.

Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a while, King Jing wanted to say something more, but at this moment, the door outside the secret passage creaked, accompanied by the sound of panicked footsteps, it seemed that someone had come in.

Wang Yuetong raised his head and looked in the direction of the secret passageway.

King Jing got up and went straight to the front to check.

"My lord, my concubine, something happened outside!"

I only heard a servant shouting outside, and then ran out again.

"No, it should be someone from Yuwen Changyi who came!"

King Jing frowned, and pulled Wang Yuetong out of the secret passage.
