The Regent's Koi Princess

Chapter 164: My subordinate discovered something important about the Regent

Lin Xi looked at Jiang Che and nodded vigorously.

This man! What should she do with him?

Jiang Che held her in his arms, lay down again, and coaxed Lin Xi to sleep lovingly.

"Be good! Have a good sleep. No matter what happens in the future, I will be there to face it with Xier.

It doesn't matter if I can't go back to your world. Xi'er can give the rest of her life to me. As long as I live one more day, I will not betray Xi'er."

Lin Xi's heart tightened when she heard the man's words. She rested her head on the man's arm and hugged the man's thin waist tightly with both hands.

The man's embrace made her feel much more at ease, but...

For some reason, this dream today made her feel panicked.

She was afraid that something unexpected would happen, and she was afraid that Jiang Che would also disappear.

She couldn't go back to her original world. In this strange world, he was the only one who truly belonged to her.

If she lost him, she would really have nothing.

Jiang Che could feel Lin Xi's helplessness. He hugged her slightly trembling body and soothed her back with his big hand.

He knew very well that this seemingly unruly little thing was more fragile than anyone else. She just liked to disguise herself.

After all, anyone would feel panic, fear, helplessness and confusion if they were alone in a strange place.

She wanted to go back but couldn't. She was like an alien here. If people knew, how would they view her? I'm afraid they would all stay away from her!

When Jiang Che thought of this, his heart ached. What could he do to make her feel more at ease?

"Just go to sleep, everything will be fine when you wake up, ok!"

"Hmm~"

Lin Xi snuggled into Jiang Che's arms again, humming softly like a cat, full of grievances, which made people feel extremely distressed.

At this moment, she was restless, like a frightened rabbit.

He knew she was afraid.

This was the first time that Lin Xi showed her weak side since they met.

In the past, she was thick-skinned, unyielding, and full of evil intentions.

But now...

Hey!

Jiang Che lowered his eyes and looked at Lin Xi, who was sleeping unsteadily in his arms, with his brows furrowed and his thin lips slightly pursed.

What should he do? What if she wants to leave in the future?

Ever since he found out that she came from another world, his heart has been hanging.

He was afraid that one day she would suddenly disappear without even a word.

But when he saw her suffering because of her relatives in that world, he couldn't bear to see her suffer like this forever.

It's really a dilemma.

Under the dim candlelight, the man's handsome face was gloomy. He pursed his thin lips and sighed silently: Xier, what should I do with you?

In the study

Sitting in front of the desk, Zhao Zhoucheng looked gloomily at Fang Cheng, who was reporting to him with his head hung across from him, and his heart was heaving with anger.

After listening for a while, he couldn't help it and grabbed the ruler and smashed it hard on Fang Cheng's head.

With a bang, the ruler slipped from Fang Cheng's head and fell to the ground, and he was knocked back two steps. In an instant, he felt a hot current flowing out of his head, accompanied by a strong smell of blood, and his head was buzzing with pain for a while.

Fang Cheng felt his head being smashed, he raised his head suddenly and looked at his master in horror.

He saw that his master had his fists clenched, his eyes were as big as bells, his breathing was rapid, his face was uneasy, and he looked at him fiercely, as if he wanted to tear him to pieces.

Zhao Zhoucheng felt unsatisfied and immediately started to curse: "What a bunch of rubbish! What's the point of me keeping you dogs? It's been so long and I can't even find two yellow-haired girls. Is your head for shit?"

Fang Cheng lowered his head again and said tremblingly: "Please calm down, my lord. I have already led people to secretly check every street and alley in the imperial capital.

For some reason, the eldest lady and the girl Ruo'er seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, with no trace of them anywhere.

No one knew who the two guys were who took the master and servant away that day. I really can't figure out what's going on.

So I am wondering if the young lady has been taken away from the capital by that boy. If that is the case, it will be very difficult to find her. We don’t know where to look for her!"

As soon as Fang Cheng finished speaking, Zhao Zhoucheng was so angry that he choked on his own saliva. He slapped his chest and coughed violently.

"Cough cough..."

He looked at Fang Cheng with slightly narrowed eyes, murderous intent hidden in his eyes.

He suspected that Fang Cheng had betrayed him, otherwise, he would not have been able to find that dead girl Yuening.

"Fang Cheng, how many years have you followed me?"

The topic changed too quickly, and Zhao Zhoucheng's words stunned Fang Cheng. He looked up at his master, thinking for a while.

What does it mean to ask him all of a sudden? Is he doubting himself?

To be honest, Fang Cheng is terrifyingly cunning, as he has been a slave to Zhao Zhoucheng for such a long time.

Given Zhao Zhoucheng's suspicious personality, it was not easy for him to get to Fang Cheng's current status.

His brain worked rapidly for a while, and finally came to a conclusion. He understood that Zhao Zhoucheng had begun to doubt himself.

He also understood that once the seed of doubt sprouted in Zhao Zhoucheng's heart, with his usual ruthless behavior, he would destroy himself sooner or later.

After all, according to Zhao Zhoucheng's past methods, he would rather kill someone by mistake than let him go, so he had to find a way to eliminate Zhao Zhoucheng's suspicion first.

"Your Excellency, I have been with you for six years."

In the past six years, he had no idea how many bad things he had done for Zhao Zhoucheng.

Staying in the mansion would not end well, but even if he managed to escape, it would not be a good ending, after all, he was someone close to Zhao Zhoucheng.

Judging from the evil things Zhao Zhoucheng had done in the past, he had made countless enemies. Once he left the Censorate, he would probably end up dead without a burial place.

So he needs to come up with a foolproof plan.

But what can be done to eliminate Zhao Zhoucheng's suspicion?

Suddenly remembering something, Fang Cheng's eyes lit up, and he looked at Zhao Zhoucheng mysteriously and said, "Sir, let's put the young lady's matter aside. I accidentally discovered something important about the regent and I want to report it to you."

When he heard that it was about the Regent, Zhao Zhoucheng instantly became alert. He leaned lazily on the back of the armchair, crossed his hands on his lower abdomen, and twirled his thumbs regularly.

Looking at Fang Cheng, his eyes were full of scrutiny. He wanted to know how credible Fang Cheng's words were.

After a moment of silence, Zhao Zhoucheng raised his eyelids and asked in a low voice: "Tell me first, what exactly is going on. Fang Cheng, I don't keep you here to mess around. In this world, the fittest will survive and the capable will prevail.

If you don't have the ability, you can only step down and let others do the work."

Fang Cheng looked at Zhao Zhoucheng and clenched and unclenched his fists.

But when he thought about what he was going to say next, he straightened his back instantly.

"Sir, while I was searching for the young lady, I heard something about Yue Niang, the top girl in Qinyin Pavilion."
