Although Feng Leyao's words didn't make sense.

But Xiao Ruize also pieced together a truth from it.

He frowned and asked, "Three years ago, it was you who saved me from the cliff?"

Moved that he finally remembered, Feng Leyao's eyes turned red with excitement.

Xiao Ruize continued to ask: "Where is the jade pendant I gave you?"

Feng Leyao bit her lip, looked at Jiang Rou with resentment and said, "Once, I ran out to play without telling grandpa, and then the jade pendant was lost. In the end, Jiang Rou picked it up and pretended to be me."

After she was reborn, she found that the jade pendant had been lost for a long time. She couldn't wait to return to the capital just to uncover Jiang Rou's mask in advance.

Jiang Rou looked at her coldly, without the slightest bit of panic she had imagined.

"You're mistaken. I haven't impersonated anyone."

Not only that, she even wanted to curse.

Another psychopath.

Feng Leyao's eyes were still full of resentment.

However, Xiao Ruize looked at her and said, "Do you know that the jade pendant is in the hands of the Second Prince? Are you really my savior?"

Feng Leyao was stunned, "How could it be?"

Xiao Ruize recalled some unpleasant memories.

He said in a deep voice:

"This matter has nothing to do with Jiang Rou. She didn't know about the jade pendant from the beginning to the end."

Feng Leyao was hit hard and felt like she was about to collapse:

"how come?"

It was obviously not like this in her previous life. Could it be that her rebirth changed everything?

Feng Leyao was so anxious that she grabbed Xiao Ruize's hand and said, "Your Highness, please believe me. I am really your savior."

Jiang Rou didn't want to get entangled with these two people.

"Since you two are busy, I will leave first."

She bowed, and without caring whether the prince agreed or not, she turned around and ran away as if there was a mad dog chasing her.

Xiao Ruize subconsciously wanted to shout, but Jiang Rou had already run away, so he had to give up. He said in a deep voice: "You follow me."

Feng Leyao didn't notice Xiao Ruize's indifference and followed Xiao Ruize away with an obsessed look on her face.

Xiao Ruize brought Feng Leyao back to the East Palace and asked her many details, and they all matched.

The person I have been looking for for a long time suddenly appears in front of me at this moment.

Xiao Ruize was surprised, but at the same time he felt a little disappointed.

He once had a secret expectation in his heart. He thought how great it would be if this person was Jiang Rou.

But Feng Leyao...is not bad either.

When she was embraced in his arms, Feng Leyao's uneasy heart finally calmed down a little.

Perhaps her rebirth caused some unexpected events.

But it doesn’t matter, this time she got there first.

She will definitely hold the prince's heart firmly and never let anyone else come between them.

In Zuixian Tower.

On the stage on the first floor, the actors' melodious voices spread throughout every corner.

At the top, Xiao Jingtong seemed to be immersed in the tune.

He heard footsteps coming from the stairs. He paused, opened his eyes, and looked at the person walking up.

"You came?"

Jiang Cheng and 757 complained: "This guy is really good at pretending. Wasn't it him who asked me to come?"

[Don't forget your identity. You are a traitor now. ]

Oh hoo.

Jiang Cheng's expression changed immediately.

He was sincere but a little flattering: "I wonder what the Second Prince wants me to do?"

Xiao Jingtong is good at keeping people in suspense, and he is not in a hurry to confess to Jiang Cheng.

"Nothing, I just happened to be free today and asked you to come and listen to some music."

Who would believe that? They are all people who will not do anything without profit.

What's more, the relationship between them is so 'ambiguous'.

But Jiang Cheng still didn't show anything on the surface.

He sat in front of Xiao Jingtong, and the actors below sang the important parts.

The lyrics are sad and eloquent, and the listeners are heartbroken.

Jiang Cheng waited patiently for him to finish listening.

Xiao Jingtong found Jiang Cheng really uninteresting, so he decided not to beat around the bush with him.

Behind him stood a tall attendant with a sword on his waist, looking as cold and hard as a blade.

Xiao Jingtong said: "You have agreed to cooperate with me for so long, there is something I want you to do."

After saying that, the person behind him took out a stack of things from his arms, and Xiao Jingtong took it and put it on the table.

Jiang Cheng opened it slowly with a cautious attitude.

What they saw was evidence of Yao Chengzhang's corruption, bribery, and collusion with the enemy country.

Yao Chengzhang is Prime Minister Yao.

Xiao Jingtong said: "Do you still remember the assassination case in the palace not long ago? Those people were arranged by Yao Chengzhang."

Jiang Cheng was puzzled: "Prime Minister Yao wants to assassinate the emperor? Why?"

Xiao Jingtong looked at him but said nothing.

Oh, it seems that it is not Prime Minister Yao who wants to kill, but Xiao Ruize.

This doesn't make sense. He is tired of being the crown prince. He doesn't need to take such a risk to become the emperor, right?

I always feel that there is some secret that he hasn't told me.

Xiao Jingtong said: "Don't worry about these, you just need to help me pull down Prime Minister Yao."

"Prime Minister Yao supports the prince's lineage, so I naturally cannot let their relationship become stable."

Prime Minister Yao's legitimate daughter, Yao Ruxuan, really wants to marry Xiao Ruize as the Crown Princess. If this relationship is established, the relationship between the two will indeed be more stable.

Xiao Jingtong squeezed out two more tears: "In fact, I also admire Prime Minister Yao, but he colluded with foreign enemies and tried to destroy our Great Qi. I can never tolerate it."

The actors below sang: How could you be so cruel to betray me!

Oh, I see. He is using the lyrics to act out the cat crying over the mouse.

Jiang Cheng said: "Your Highness has many talented people under his command, and there are many people who can accomplish this task. Why did you only look for me?"

Xiao Jingtong took a sip of tea and looked at him.

It seems as if everything is self-explanatory.

Xiao Jingtong wanted to make him and the prince become enemies in order to cut off the possibility of him turning to the prince.

If he weren't the biggest villain in the original text, and if the protagonist didn't have the halo, he might not be able to be killed.

He is very scheming and ruthless in his actions.

Jiang Cheng held up the evidence and said, "Since the Second Prince doesn't believe me, this matter of his will be regarded as my surrender. Let the Second Prince see my sincerity."

It just so happens that neither he nor the crown prince likes the second prince.

It doesn't matter who you offend.

With a satisfactory answer, Xiao Jingtong relaxed his expression and looked at Jiang Cheng with interest.

Xiao Jingtong said: "You can report him at the court tomorrow morning, and my people will cooperate with you then."

Jiang Cheng stood up with his things in his hand: "No need, there is no need to trouble His Highness's people for such a small matter."

Some things need to be done quickly, not to mention that this is a pillow when you are sleepy.

Jiang Cheng brought the things to the emperor's desk that day.

The emperor didn't even bother to look at minor matters like corruption and bribery, but he was furious when he saw the collusion with the Hu people on the last page.

He smashed all the new inkstones.

"Yao Chengzhang! How dare you!"

Jiang Cheng immediately knelt down and said:

"Your Majesty, calm down. These things have already happened. It is useless to be angry. The evidence that Prime Minister Yao is collaborating with the enemy and selling out the country is set in stone. What we need to do now is to stop the loss in time and transfer the He family army back as soon as possible. If Prime Minister Yao hands over our army's defense to the Hu people, the consequences will be disastrous."

Let the emperor be angry about the collusion with the Hu people to assassinate him.

The most urgent task now is to rescue the He family.
