He was shocked.

When did this happen?

Perhaps, he had been exposed from the very beginning?

I still had the thought in my mind that I had not been discovered, so I planned to calm down first and then observe.

He just couldn't understand why the Second Miss was clearly in her own home, yet she acted like a thief.

He does everything secretly, even breaking into his father's study.

He saw clearly during this period that her father obviously loved her very much.

Even if she asked to enter Shi Yuan's study, he thought Shi Yuan would not refuse.

But I don't understand why she came here secretly in the middle of the night.

He had to follow and couldn't have a good rest.

It's really not peaceful at all.

Shi Xiaoxiao couldn't help but curl her lips when she saw that there was still no reaction in the dark.

Yes, in fact, she had long discovered that someone had been following her.

At first she didn't know who sent them and was on guard.

But the person had no ill intentions towards her, so she ignored him.

Until every time that scoundrel sneaked into her room, the man in the dark disappeared without a trace.

When Ji Chen left, the man came back.

Therefore, Shi Xiaoxiao guessed that the man was the secret guard arranged by Ji Chen.

Shi Xiaoxiao didn't expose him. After all, there was someone following her, so her safety was guaranteed.

Don’t miss out on a free bodyguard.

Seeing that he had no intention of moving, Shi Xiaoxiao flicked her fingertips.

A silver needle flew quickly towards An Er.

An Er only felt something flash before his eyes, and a slight pain came from the direction of his arm.

Although he didn't see clearly what it was, based on his experience of following Shi Xiaoxiao for so long.

It’s likely that the silver needle that Shi Xiaoxiao threw at him didn’t escape.

Sure enough, it was discovered.

At this moment he also had to come out of the darkness.

He was really afraid of Shi Xiaoxiao's silver needles. He didn't know where she learned it, but she swung the silver needles really well.

He couldn't help but feel fortunate that there was no poison on the silver needle she used today.

Shi Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows in amusement and whispered, "You didn't want to come out, so why did you come out again?"

An Er's mouth twitched.

Still pretending.

I clearly threw the silver needle to force him to appear, but now he looks like he has no idea.

She is still as good at pretending as ever.

He whispered, "I am An Er, your subordinate. Seeing that you are in trouble, I want to help you through it. Please give me your orders."

Shi Xiaoxiao's lips curled slightly.

mock up!

Can't she control him?

Shi Xiaoxiao nodded towards the secret guards and signaled to An Er with her eyes: "Do you see those people? Go and lead them away."

An Er clasped his fists and said, "Yes."

In fact, he didn't want to listen to Shi Xiaoxiao, but considering the situation of his master.

This Miss Shi is most likely their mistress.

Moreover, he was shocked by Shi Xiaoxiao's strength and did not dare to disobey her.

Even his proud concealment skills were discovered.

He dared not to be more presumptuous.

But think about it, it's not bad to have such a powerful person as their mistress.

Looking at the entire Chang'an City, he felt that Shi Xiaoxiao was the most suitable person for their master.

Received Shi Xiaoxiao's order.

An Er flew to the side and landed on the top of the wall carelessly.

He even struck an arrogant pose.

He was immediately discovered by secret guards from all places, and all the secret guards were dispatched at once.

Seeing this, An Er ran away.

The secret guard also followed closely behind An Er.

Shi Xiaoxiao's gaze fell on the two secret guards guarding the study door.

They are responsible for staying behind to guard the gate.

Shi Xiaoxiao controlled her special ability to make the big tree in front of them whistle.

Their eyes fell on the tree at the same time.

His eyes were full of vigilance.

At this moment, the silver needle in Shi Xiaoxiao's hand slipped out.

The sound of the silver needle breaking through the air was drowned out by the noise from the big tree.

It penetrated into the bodies of the two people without any hindrance.

The two of them only realized they had been hit a second before they fell unconscious.

But it was too late.

Shi Xiaoxiao clapped her hands and swaggered into the study.

Shi Yuan's study was indeed filled with a dazzling array of items, including desks, bookcases, writing desks, calligraphy and paintings, which dazzled Shi Xiaoxiao.

The most common ones are books.

Rows and rows of books are everywhere.

Shi Xiaoxiao dove into the pile of books and began to search.

She didn't look for obvious places, but only for narrow corners.

She looked through the information compiled by Shi Yuan one by one, and also learned many secrets.

After looking at it, he put the things back to their original places without any change at all.

Her eyes fell on a locked box.

The box was covered in dust, and it was obvious that it had not been moved for a long time.

The things inside might be unimportant, so Shi Yuan doesn't move them often.

But Shi Xiaoxiao's gaze fell straight on it.

Her intuition told her that perhaps the answer she was looking for was inside.

The less often Shi Yuan moves to a place, the more likely it is that something is hidden there.

A thin thread appeared in her hand. She slowly inserted the thread into the lock core and stirred the lock core by feeling.

After a moment, with a "click", the lock heart was broken by Shi Xiaoxiao.

The lock opened with a click.

What caught her eye was a black iron token. When Xiaoxiao saw the token, which was emitting a slight chill, she seemed to feel a dangerous chill running through her bones.

Shi Xiaoxiao didn't recognize this token, but she was not completely unfamiliar with it.

She had seen this kind of token on Shi Yuan before. It usually had the words "Da Qi" engraved on it, and the other side showed the identity of the holder and its purpose.

Refers to someone from the Daqi Kingdom.

The word "Lin" was clearly engraved on one side of this token, and "Jin" was engraved on the other side.

Shi Xiaoxiao suddenly felt cold all over and got goose bumps.

Even though she was a fool before, she also knew that there was a hostile country on par with the Great Qi Kingdom.

Lin country!

So this token belongs to someone from Lin, and as for Jin, she doesn't know who he is.

But the mere fact that the Lin Kingdom token appeared in Shi Yuan's study was enough to get the entire Prime Minister's Mansion executed.

She clenched her teeth and gripped the token tightly with her fingers, wishing she could crush it.

When her eyes shifted to the other objects in the box, Shi Xiaoxiao's heart once again felt like it was falling into a cold pond, the icy chill making her shudder.

Inside was a stack of evidence of transactions with various officials of neighboring countries.

Shi Yuan is loyal to the current emperor, and these things definitely would not have been left by him.

That was the work of the person behind the scenes.

It seems that the person behind the scenes wants to accuse the Prime Minister's Office of treason and collaborating with the enemy.

It was obvious that a token could lead to the execution of the entire Prime Minister's family, yet so many pieces of evidence were included.

I don't want to give the Prime Minister's Mansion any chance to breathe.

If these things were discovered, then Yuan's crime of treason would be a foregone conclusion.

There is no room for maneuver.

Shi Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel lucky that she had discovered their trick out of her momentary curiosity.

Fortunately, she discovered it before anything happened.

A gloomy look flashed in her eyes.

After throwing all the things into the space, her eyes fell on the things inside the box.

A hint of surprise flashed across his face.

Inside were letters from a long time ago. Shi Xiaoxiao picked one up at random and took a look.

It turned out to be a love letter!

It was written by Song Dai and Shi Yuan when they were young.

Her face showed intense interest.

Flipping through the letters one by one.

Look at the two people above caring for each other and loving each other.

Their acquaintance and friendship, as well as poems about love.

Shi Xiaoxiao seemed to feel a deep love in the letter.

The corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.

I didn’t expect Shi Yuan to be so affectionate that he even kept the letters from his youth.

It was locked up, and I don’t know if Song Dai knew about it.

Finally she put the letter back and closed the box again.

Unfortunately, the lock on it had been broken by her.

She could only carefully find a good angle to place the lock so that it looked just like the good one.

In fact, it is just hanging there loosely.
