Pei Jingyi was upset by Xie Shuyao's crying and his hands loosened their strength.

Pei Jingyi followed up her words and asked: "Then why did you steal the jade pendant?"

Xie Shuyao sniffed and said half-truthfully:

"That day my mother-in-law asked two men to destroy my innocence and drugged me. When I escaped, I was unconscious and got into a bucket. Later I found out that it was a dumpster's car."

"Really, it was all coincidence. Then I saw that the jade pendant was made of top-grade spiritual stone and thought it was valuable, so I stole it. I used it to exchange for the blood ganoderma for the Queen Mother."

Seeing Pei Jingyi's suspicious eyes, it seemed that he didn't completely believe her yet.

Xie Shuyao said pitifully: "I admit that I lied to you before, but it was really not easy for me. Please let me go. I really don't know anything about Da Xia."

What she said was quite logical. Pei Jingyi reviewed Xie Shuyao's life experience and found that it was indeed as she said.

Moreover, Xie Shuyao didn't even recognize him, so there shouldn't be any problem with her identity.

Pei Jingyi suddenly withdrew his hand, straightened his sleeves, glanced at Xie Shuyao, and said slowly:

"When did I ever say that I am from Daxia?"

With her neck freed, Xie Shuyao gasped for air with lingering fear. After confirming that Pei Jingyi would not kill her again, she muttered, "Then why did you pinch me?"

In a flash, Xie Shuyao suddenly thought, that day they called him General Helian, and he was wearing a mask, could it be...

She timidly but bravely leaned forward, as if she was plotting something, and whispered in a low voice: "You are not a double agent, are you?"

Pei Jingyi's face was indifferent. When he was hesitating whether to tell her his identity, he suddenly heard a sound from the sky, followed by the appearance of a cloud of red smoke.

His expression changed slightly and his look suddenly became serious.

This is a flare, which is only used in emergencies. Could something have happened in the palace?

Pei Jingyi had no intention of greeting Xie Shuyao, and left a sentence, "Who I am, you will know in two days."

Then he jumped up and flew out of the window.

Xie Shuyao stared at his back in a daze and murmured, "Why are you being so mysterious?"

But who is he and what does it have to do with her?

Just don't disturb her ordinary life.

After Pei Jingyi left, Xie Shuyao lay down on the bed. Just as she was about to lament that life was not easy, the door was suddenly pushed open.

Song Yinyin's panicked and terrified voice rang out: "Miss, something bad has happened! Someone from the Fan family is coming!"

The Fan family? They are all in prison, why are they here?

Xie Shuyao was surprised and sat up suddenly.

She hurried to the front hall and saw Fan Yuqi wandering around with a group of servants.

Fan Yuqi held the vase she had just bought in her hand and said, "It's pretty nice."

Then he just threw it on the ground.

With a loud "bang", the servants outside looked at each other in fear and dared not say a word.

The servants behind Fan Yuqi, all holding weapons in their hands, looked like bandits breaking into a house to rob.

Xie Shuyao felt something was wrong and asked tentatively, "Miss Fan, what do you mean?"

Fan Yuqi sneered, "What do you mean? You and that stupid guy from the Meng family almost killed our Fan family, and you still have the nerve to ask. I tell you, you'd better keep your tail between your legs and don't let me see you again."

After saying that, Fan Yuqi left with his men, leaving the room in a mess.

Xie Shuyao was a little flustered, and told Song Yinyin, "Go and find out why the Fan family was released."

At the same time, inside the palace.

Fan Yanran lay on the couch leisurely, eating grapes leisurely, looking at her not-so-obvious belly, and asked in confusion:

"Dad, am I really pregnant with twins? If we find out they are not after they are born, the old emperor will be so angry that he will die."

Fan Bo sipped his tea leisurely, and said firmly: "Don't worry, he won't live to see that day."
