After I was reborn, I became Mrs. Chief Assistant

Chapter 298 Conspiracy
Seeing that she was willing to eat, Xie Jie naturally thought that the incident was over, so he calmed down and looked at the official document in hand.

It is said to be an official document, but in fact, it contains more news from the Xie family, ranging from Zong Guangxie's actions to unite the aristocratic family, to small local wealthy businessmen entering Beijing. These things are compiled into volumes by the Xie family. send it.

After Yun Zhuo finished eating, he silently pushed the remaining cakes towards Xie Jie.

Xie Jie followed the movements of her hands and looked over, but Yun Zhuo turned her head first, pretending to open the curtains and look at the scenery outside the window.

Xie Jie withdrew his gaze, put the documents and volumes on the sandalwood case, lowered his eyelids, and fell asleep.

Yun Zhuo heard the rustling sound of flipping books behind him, and heard the crisp sound of bamboo slips resting on the sandalwood case, quietly put down the curtain of the car, turned to look at Xie Jie, and found that he had closed his eyes at some point.

There is a faint bluish black under his eyes, which is not conspicuous, and it takes a lot of attention to see it, and it doesn't seem too disobedient when it falls on the jade-colored face.

Yun Zhuo simply put his hands on the sandalwood table and looked at Xie Jie with his head up.After making up her mind, she looked at Xie Jie again, whatever she wanted.

She is no longer as foolish as before, and she will never count her whole life for one person.

But she still wants to love.

She will love decently, be generous, and never push herself into a dilemma.

Xie Jie felt her gaze and didn't dare to shake it, so he maintained the previous posture, and his neck froze after a while.At this time, the carriage bumped a bit, but fortunately Yun Zhuo quickly supported him.He also took advantage of the situation and fell on Yun Zhuo's body.

The carriage was still driving. Xie Jie had told her earlier that after leaving Luyong, the next place they were going to was Yingcheng. From Luyong, it would take two days by carriage.This means that they can only eat and sleep on the road. By this time the day after tomorrow, they will probably arrive in Yingcheng.

Thinking of this, Yun Zhuo felt a little worried: they had to eat dry food for two days, which was too bitter.

After driving for quite a long time, she opened the curtain and looked outside. It was the same scene as when she first came out of Luyong City. Fade away into a drop of thick ink on the scroll.

She lowered the curtain, not knowing where she was going, and didn't bother to ask Wen Lu when she could stop.

Xie Jie woke up at this moment, he covered his head and asked Yun Zhuo: "I fell asleep? Why did I fall asleep on your shoulders? How long have I been asleep? Are you okay?"

Yun Zhuo moved his shoulders calmly and said, "It's okay."

Xie Jie pretended to be annoyed, while secretly watching Yun Zhuo's expression, finally heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "Are you not angry anymore?"

"What's wrong with you?" Yun Zhuo said lightly, "As Lord Xie said, I was the one who was wrong. Even if I was angry, I shouldn't have angered you."

After Yun Zhuo finished speaking, he pushed the exquisite plate containing pastries to Xie Jie: "I see that you have been busy for a long time, so why don't you also eat something. It's still far away from Yingcheng, isn't it?"

Xie Jie felt that she was trying to make peace, so he reached out and twirled a piece of pastry into his lips, and after chewing, he answered her question: "I'm afraid it's far away."

Yun Zhuo nodded, then closed his mouth and stopped talking.

She had already figured it out, the reason why her previous life ended miserably was because she was too extravagant for things that did not belong to her, such was the position of Princess Duan, and so was Pei Yanzhi's love.

This time she didn't argue, she just wanted to let nature take its course.Let the flow take its course, the two of them should return to their original positions, she is the concubine daughter of Shang Shu, and Xie Jie is a descendant of the family, everything between the two should start from here.

Xie Jie keenly felt that something was different, but this feeling was so light and ethereal that it disappeared before he had time to grasp it.Can only rely on his own groping.

……

Kyoto.

In the vast and deep mansion, a middle-aged man in a blue-gray gown stood in the study room. In front of him, a man dressed as a warrior knelt on one knee. The two were about the same age. The man in the gown was dignified and solemn, and the other But with a respectful look on his face, it is enough to see the order of dignity.

A birdcage made of red gold hangs by the window of the study room. The exquisite oriole stands in the cage, combing the exquisite feathers on its body with its beak from time to time, and singing softly from time to time.

With a slight lift of the man's hand, the cage door was opened.The oriole didn't know this yet, and still fluttered its wings and sang.

But at this moment a swift figure came rushing out of the window, biting the Oriole's beautiful neck in one bite, and the song became its last wail, and even its well-groomed feathers were stained with blood, making it extremely filthy.

Only then did the instigator let out a contented and lazy cry: "Meow~"

The man smiled slightly, stroked the gray cat along its fur, and said with a smile, "I've coveted it for so long, and now it's my wish fulfilled. How about it, are you happy?"

The gray cat let out another "meow", carrying Huang Ying's body in its mouth, and walked slowly away with noble and lazy steps.

Only then did the man turn his head: "Our people, have you arranged it?"

The samurai said in a low voice: "My lord, it has been arranged. You only need to give an order to take Xie Jie's head. In the past, when he was in the capital, Xie's mansion was protected like gold, but now he is away from the imperial city. Not so lucky."

No matter how well protected the yellow warbler is in the cage, it may be shot to death by the eyeing gray cat if it is just a negligence.

Zong Guangxie was never in a hurry to attack Xie Jie, he was waiting for this day.

"This time, I want you all to be foolproof!"

Ning Xueyao hid outside the door, bit her lips tightly, and gently walked away from the door along the same path, holding the corner of her skirt.

It happened to be the maid who came to look for her. The maid was about to happily call her, but she covered her mouth first: "Shut up, let's go first. Remember that we have never been here before."

The maidservant nodded hurriedly, not knowing what happened.

Ning Xueyao raised her heart, and slowly led the maidservant out of the garden.

As soon as she walked out, she slid down against the wall.

The maid hurriedly looked at her nervously: "Girl, what's wrong with you?"

Ning Xueyao didn't expect that she would run into such a shocking secret that Cifu and his subordinates planned to assassinate Xie Jie. She lived a simple life at the border before. Where did she encounter such intrigues, harming people and killing people?Although Jisuke didn't find out that she was eavesdropping today, she still felt a little scared thinking about it.

Hearing the servant girl's question, she waved her hand and said, "It's okay."

She's just a little limp.

"You help me up first, let's say goodbye to Miss Zong."

"But didn't we just come?" The maid was puzzled.
