This villain has become a ghost

Jiang Wenjin said as a matter of course: "...the other concubines in the harem."

But the other concubines in the harem are not to be feared at all, so there is no need to go to great lengths.

Ye Zhaoxi added casually:

"And... people who don't want their positions to be threatened."

"Giving birth to a prince, whose position could be threatened?" Jiang Wenjin frowned and thought, "Unless... it's someone who covets the throne."

Ye Zhaoxi wiped the rain off her body with a clean handkerchief. As she moved, a rich fragrance spread in the air.

She chuckled softly and said slowly:

"Isn't this... His Royal Highness Prince Xuan?"

King Xuan?

"How is this possible!" Jiang Wenjin said in disbelief, "How could King Xuan do such a thing..."

and many more.

Jiang Wenjin suddenly thought of something.

His pupils constricted, staring intently at Ye Zhaoxi, and said in a deep voice: "You mean..."

"Of course he can't," Ye Zhaoxi interrupted him, chuckling as if he was telling a very ordinary little thing, "...but I can make him learn it."

Jiang Wenjin murmured, "You want to frame him..."

As long as others think that Nangong Qianshang has the intention to seize power and usurp the throne, it is a foregone conclusion whether he actually does it or not.

Jiang Wenjin shook his head again and said:

"It's useless. The Song family will support him unconditionally."

Even if a part of the Song family's military force is separated as an expeditionary force and sent to Yizhou, the remaining troops should not be underestimated. At least they will have no problem controlling the entire Dongdu.

"If his conspiracy is confirmed and known to the whole city, the Song family will be considered rebels," Ye Zhaoxi said with a half-smile. "Will the people agree? Then they will denounce him and rise up in rebellion. They might even drive the Song family army to death. But do you think they will harm them? Can they really harm them?"

"Being cautious" can never defeat "having no taboos".

"Then, the latent forces I have planted in the city will rise up, and the officials in the court who are on my side will also rebel against the Song family."

"Those people will instigate, instigate, spread rumors, and provoke wars under the guise of ordinary people..."

Jiang Wenjin felt a chill on her back:

"By then, the Eastern Capital will be in chaos. Wouldn't that mean... many people will die..."

Blood flowed like a river and corpses were everywhere.

Ye Zhaoxi suppressed the madness in his eyes, and finally turned into deep calmness, saying:

"Isn't this my purpose?"

Jiang Wenjin suddenly didn't dare to look at her sinister face, and cold sweat was already running down his back.

madman.

She had already gone crazy.

Jiang Wenjin subconsciously dodged backwards, closed his eyes and said in a deep voice:

"So what brings you to me today?"

Ye Zhaoxi raised her eyes and stared at Jiang Wenjin, her beautiful face flickering in the light.

She said slowly, "Jiang San."

"I need you to help me kill someone."

"Get rid of those...people who might ruin my entire plan."

Hearing the name "Jiang San", Jiang Wenjin finally opened his eyes and looked back at her with complicated eyes.

He shook his head slowly but firmly.

Just a moment, but it directly expressed his attitude.

"Xiao Liu, I can't help you."

"Nangong Mingzhu saved my life, I won't be his enemy."

"I have never told him anything about any of you."

"I won't tell anyone else about what you said today, nor will I stop you. Similarly... I can't help you either."

Ye Zhaoxi looked at him steadily.

Outside, the woods in every corner were blown by the strong wind. Large clumps of leaves were wrapped in the wind and flew past the eaves and corners of the walls quickly, like ghosts announcing a death swaying by.

The girl had a pair of big dark eyes, but the bottom of her eyes were like stagnant water, so calm that not a single ripple could appear.

There was a long silence, with only the rich aroma brewing and fermenting in the air.

After a while, Ye Zhaoxi slowly opened his mouth and said something inexplicably:

"Third brother, you seem to be very rich now."

The economic lifeline of the entire Daying is in his hands. He is truly a walking treasure.

The room was very humid. Jiang Wenjin's clothes were not dry yet, and water was still dripping from her hair.

He didn't know why.

Ye Zhaoxi suddenly stood up, clumsily and gently took out a handkerchief, and wiped the water droplets for him, making the fragrance even stronger.

"Third brother, you know, I am not Ye Xiaoliu or Ye Mingyan now. I don't trust anyone."

"I named myself Ye Zhaoxi."

“Zhao means brightness, Xi means hope.”

"Although this name sounds ridiculous, it helps me and makes others believe that I am a person who still has hope in my heart."

The girl asked innocently, "Third brother, do you believe it?"

Jiang Wenjin suddenly felt sad and her nose felt sore.

She wasn't like this before.

Those warm and beautiful pictures flashed through his mind one by one, but were ruthlessly shattered by reality.

Saying that I don’t feel sad or heartbroken... is all fake.

He was about to speak.

However, the next second, he suddenly felt a surge of pain from his internal organs. He was as pale as paper, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.

Jiang Wenjin finally reacted.

The strange fragrance mixed with the scent of rain drifted from Ye Zhaoxi's body, becoming more and more intense.

He looked up in disbelief at the girl in front of him.

Ye Zhaoxi took back the handkerchief, turned around and sat down in her original seat, staring at him without blinking.

She whispered:

"Third brother, I gave you a chance."

"I believe what you just said, but... people should always be cautious."

"Besides...we are no longer on the same path."

Jiang Wenjin's body was shaking, and her hands were tightly gripping the corner of the table, her knuckles turning white from the force, as she tried hard to prevent herself from falling.

It turns out that those "people who might ruin my entire plan" she mentioned... also included him.

He controls the economic lifeline of Daying, and Ye Zhaoxi wants to throw the whole world into chaos, so he wants to kill him.

At the same time, she would not leave him as a hidden danger who knew everything.

Jiang Wenjin's lips opened slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but she could only let out a faint moan, heart-wrenching pain.

Ye Zhaoxi arched his eyebrows:

"Third brother, you once praised me. You said... I'm very smart."

"I also know that I am an extremely talented person, but at the same time... I am also an extremely hardworking person."

"When I was first sent to the palace, I was truly hopeless, but in the end, I learned how to please the old emperor and also learned... how to win Nangong Mingzhu's trust."

"Then, I learned how to be a harmless little queen mother."

"By the way, I also learned a lot of new things and techniques from the Shangxian Palace. I have already finished reading the textbooks compiled by Concubine Xian."
