The fifth prince listened to what these people said.

He looked at Song Shaoyang again, "What do you think?"

Compared with others, he trusts his cousin Song Shaoyang more.

Song Shaoyang said truthfully: "I said this not because I can't bear to part with Qiao Ye, but for the sake of the overall situation."

"Qiao Ye and Lu Shao are not the same as they were before. If they are killed, this matter will definitely involve a lot of people."

"Whether it's the Emperor or Prince Yi and the others, they must conduct a thorough investigation."

"Don't say you can't trace it back to us. As long as we did it, there will definitely be traces."

"Besides, if Lu Shao and Qiao Ye were so easy to kill, Wu Zhiheng and the traitors would have gotten rid of them long ago."

He looked at the Fifth Prince and said, "Even if it succeeds, if it is traced back to you, you might lose the Emperor's favor."

"It's too big a gamble, so I don't recommend it."

He added, "Even if they want to die, it can't be us who do it."

This time he had no selfish motives and his advice was completely from the perspective of the Fifth Prince.

The fifth prince thought for a moment and nodded, "Indeed, the stakes are too high."

The idea of ​​taking risks, which was instigated by Lao Ba, was suppressed by reason.

Then he looked at the Eighth Prince and the others and said, "Let's end this matter here."

This made the Eighth Prince and others very unwilling, but they were unable to persuade the Fifth Prince.

He also cursed Song Shaoyang secretly.

But it doesn’t matter if you disagree. It will be the same if the blame is put on the Fifth Prince.

The day before leaving.

Qiao Xiaolian came to see Qiao Ye again.

Then he handed Qiao Ye a note, "This is what Song Shaoyang asked me to give you."

Qiao Ye opened it and saw the words "Be careful on the road, someone may want to kill you."

She was not surprised by the reminder on the note.

She and Lu Shao knew that the journey back or back would definitely not be peaceful.

They were all prepared, too.

What was a little surprising was that Song Shaoyang actually took the initiative to remind me.

Qiao Xiaolian also glanced at the contents on the paper.

She smacked her lips and said, "He really loves you deeply!"

Then she sighed, "If you haven't married yet, your life would be very good if you married him. He would definitely spoil you."

It is very rare to get a prodigal son to return.

Qiao Ye raised his eyebrows, "You think too much."

"The reason why he is like this is nothing more than two reasons."

"First, I saved his life, and second, what you can't get is the best."

"If I really follow him, and he gets tired of me, in a few years I will become a withered yellow flower, left in the backyard."

"Don't think of him as a romantic."

"He has so many women in his backyard, and he is a playboy who has had affairs with some of the ladies."

"His sincerity is the least valuable and the most unreliable to women."

She was sure that if she was easily obtained by Song Shaoyang, and there were not so many femme fatales in his backyard, he would definitely not cherish her.

Qiao Xiaolian was stunned at first, then she thought about it and realized it made sense.

You will always think about what you can't get, and it is indeed the best.

She smiled and asked, "What is the most reliable one?"

Qiao Ye said without hesitation: "Of course it's me."

Qiao Xiaolian pondered this sentence and finally sighed: "Indeed, it is better to rely on yourself than on anyone else."

When Qiao Xiaolian left, Qiao Ye gave her a bottle of spray that could make people faint.

So that she can use it when she is in danger.

The next day, Lu Shao and his wife and the Lu family set out to leave the capital.

After leaving the capital, both of them found that someone was following them.

Sure enough, there was a wave of assassinations at the inn that night.

However, Lu Shao arranged people, and Jiang Yilin also arranged a team of secret guards to protect them.

Even Xiao Jingchen had people arranged for protection.

So the killers were killed or caught before they even got close.

The captured killers were asked who asked them to come.

They refused to talk at first, but after some trouble they finally confessed.

It was said that the Fifth Prince was offering money to buy the lives of Lu Shao and his wife, so they came.

After this wave of assassinations ended.

Along the way, Lu Shao and his wife encountered several ambushes.

However, whether they are protected by someone or Lu Shao and Qiao Ye are both very powerful.

So several ambushes ended in failure.

Not only were there heavy casualties, but many of the killers were also captured.

According to past experience, the killers of this killer organization would commit suicide by taking pills after failing.

But not this time.

After being interrogated, he also confessed the fifth prince.

Lu Shao was not surprised by these people's confessions.

He did not continue the interrogation, but let Xiao Jingchen's men take the killers away.

He also hinted to Xiao Jingchen that he could do something with these killers.

Capture the rebel leader hiding in the capital.

When Xiao Jingchen received the news, he thought to himself that this boy was indeed evil.

But this suggestion hit the spot for him.

So they used special methods to torture these people again.

After obtaining a set of confessions, the Eighth Prince took his men to find the assassin organization, and in the name of the Fifth Prince, he paid them to kill Lu Shao and his wife on the road.

After killing the person, they will put the blame on the traitor.

It was said that the rebels killed Lu Shao and his wife deliberately because they hated them so much.

From this confession, Lu Shao and Xiao Jingchen had already guessed what tricks the traitor was going to play.

It was obvious that they were the ones who wanted to kill someone, but not only did they put the blame on the Fifth Prince, they also pretended that the Fifth Prince wanted to frame them.

He should also know that it is impossible to kill Lu Shao and his wife at once, and some of their people will be captured.

What a good trick to sow discord and escape.

It’s a pity that Lu Shao and Xiao Jingchen, whom he met, were not stupid.

Moreover, they already knew that the gambling house was the base of the rebel killer organization in the capital.

Not only does he run a casino, he also sells information and takes on various assassination jobs.

After Xiao Jingchen obtained more information about the casinos and killers, he did not hesitate to personally lead his men back to the capital secretly.

First, they used a trick to get several other casinos to jointly suppress this casino.

The casino was in a state of disarray.

There was an even greater shortage of liquid cash in the account, and management was not timely, in addition to Xiao Jingchen's operations.

This resulted in the government visiting them directly to investigate their loan sharking business.

It is a tacit agreement in casinos to lend money at high interest rates.

However, the imperial court has stipulated that lending money at usury is not allowed, otherwise it would be illegal.

So one check will be accurate.

The manager of the gambling house and others were all taken away and thrown into jail.

That night, these people were quietly transferred to the dungeon of the Flying Dragon Guard.

Interrogated by Xiao Jingchen himself.

They also ambushed and captured three leaders who were planning to leave the capital and hide in Jiangnan for a while.

The three leaders themselves had not expected that their attempt to kill someone with a borrowed knife would not only fail, but also send themselves to jail.

Xiao Jingchen successfully caught another big fish in the capital.

So he sent a message to Lu Shao.

At this moment, Lu Shao and his wife have arrived in the provincial capital to rest and will be able to return to Mayu County tomorrow.

After reading the message, Lu Shao handed it to Qiao Ye.

After reading it, Qiao Ye chuckled and said, "They dug their own grave."
