"marry" to your nemesis

"What's the matter?" Tang Xiao was a little cold.

After all, she didn't think that if Feng Ling came to her at night, there would be no good.

Sure enough, Feng Ling said coldly, "Pack up your things and leave overnight."

"Leaving overnight?" Tang Xiao was taken aback, but immediately realized.

She didn't mind that, but just wanted to confirm, "Then should I call A Yao?"

"No need." Feng Ling replied very lightly, but after a pause, she added, "Just you and me..."

This made Tang Xiao couldn't help but frown. Without A Yao, she always felt a little uneasy.

Tang Xiao asked, "Can't you take her with you?"

"No."

"..."

Seeing Tang Xiao's hesitation, Feng Ling lowered her eyebrows helplessly and said, "You have to keep her in Yuyang City, so that the eldest princess can feel at ease."

"..."

Hearing this, Tang Xiao immediately understood Li Ruo's intentions.

This is using A Yao as a bargaining chip, are you afraid that she will run away?

"How long is it going to be? Very far away?" Tang Xiao stopped delaying and packed his things while talking.

Feng Ling stood at the door and did not go in.

The candlelight in the room stretched her figure for a long time, until it finally disappeared into the night, revealing a somewhat desolate feeling.

"If it's fast, I can come back in three days." Feng Ling replied.

Tang laughed "Oh" and didn't ask any more questions.But she didn't see that the expression on Feng Ling's face was a little sad.

And just when Tang Xiao packed up his things and straightened his back, Feng Ling immediately turned around, hiding his emotions in the night.

Tang Xiao wanted to say hello to A Yao before leaving, but Feng Ling didn't agree.Ever since, the two of them rode their horses and left Yuyang City under the moonlight.

In Lingxi Palace, A Yao, who has not fallen asleep, actually noticed the movement in Tang Xiao's yard.

She came to the window calmly, and gently pushed open a crack.

The moonlight flowed in and spread on her legs.

She looked out the window and couldn't see anything.But Tang Xiao's voice can still be vaguely heard——

"gone!"

The tumultuous environment gradually quieted down.

Looks like it's really gone.

A Yao calmly closed the window.

She knew very well that she would be detained in Yuyang City, anyway, it would be convenient for her to arrange the next thing.

only--

Tang Xiao and Feng Ling...

A Yao shook her head, and leaned against the bed helplessly alone.

It was almost five miles away from Yuyang City, when Tang Xiao remembered to ask Feng Ling, "Where are we going?

"

"Qingcheng!"

The wind swept away most of Feng Ling's voice, making her voice seem a little ethereal.

Tang Xiao was beside her, vaguely hearing a name.

Qingcheng?

This place is somewhat familiar.

After Tang Xiao thought about it, he suddenly remembered that Li Xiao once said that his ancestor's hometown was in Qingcheng.

Is it possible...

"Where are we going to get things?" Tang Xiao spoke with difficulty against the wind.

She felt uneasy, hoping that Feng Ling's words would not be as she thought.

But the next moment, she heard Feng Ling's voice clearly falling into her ears——

"Li Mansion!"

After the words were finished, Feng Ling raised his whip and immediately increased his speed.

Tang Xiao frowned tightly and followed.

Along the way, she was thinking about what Li Ruo sent Feng Ling to Li Xiao's house to fetch something.

As far as Li Xiao's father is concerned, he is Zeng Jin's prime minister anyway.Maybe they accidentally took something with them when they left Yuyang City.

Or...

Tang Xiao faintly felt that something was wrong, but thinking wildly was fruitless.

Just as they rushed all night and finally arrived at Qingcheng before dawn, when Tang Xiao was about to ask Feng Ling, Feng Ling went straight to an inn, got off his horse, and threw a sentence at her——

"Rest first, let's talk at dawn."

Tang Xiao hurriedly took the reins that Feng Ling threw into her hands, and before she could settle the two horses, Feng Ling entered the inn alone.

Compared with the journey back to Yuyang City from Luo City, Feng Ling now looks extraordinarily indifferent.

Among them, there must be problems...

Tang Xiao tossed and turned, and finally felt something was wrong.

If she really wanted to pick up something from Li's house, it would be better for her to check out the limelight first.

Thinking of this, Tang Xiao sneaked out of the inn while taking advantage of the twilight of his genius, and asked the watchman for the direction of Li's house, and then touched it.

Li's mansion in Qingcheng is not small, but it is naturally much smaller than the prime minister's mansion back then.

After Tang Xiao asked the servants of the Li family to report her intentions, she was invited to the lobby.

Not long after, a man in a green robe rushed towards her from the courtyard.

And after the man approached, Tang Xiao vaguely recognized Li Xiao through the man's appearance.

Tang Xiao was shocked!

She said, "It's been a long time since I saw you. Why...how do you look like a different person?"

But Li Xiao didn't answer, but when he saw Tang Xiao, he immediately rushed over and hugged Tang Xiao.

Tang Xiao froze there, and after a long time she heard Li Xiao muffled, "I heard from them that you... are dead!"

"..."

Hearing this, Tang Xiao couldn't help frowning.

She knew that it was inappropriate for her to come to Li Xiao so rashly.

But who told this to be Li Xiao?

Although there were many ups and downs in the later years of worshiping brothers, but... after all, they are brothers for a day and brothers for life.

Tang Xiao patted Li Xiao, and whispered, "My current identity is not Tang Xiao, but I will talk about it later."

Li Xiao came back to his senses and realized that his reaction was a bit inappropriate.

He withdrew his arm and looked at Tang Xiao with reddish eyes.

Tang Xiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Just when she was about to speak, she suddenly saw a pink and white figure passing by.

Looking back, it was fluttering.

Moreover, Piao Piao's abdomen is swollen, and she seems to be...pregnant!

Tang Xiao was overjoyed, and turned his head to look at Li Xiao.

Li Xiao shyly said, "It's been more than four months."

"congratulations."

Piao Piao smiled sweetly and said happily, "Miss Tang drinks tea, which is the best tea in Qingcheng."

Tang Xiao took the teacup in her hand, and just about to drink tea, she suddenly remembered something, raised her head and smiled at Piao Piao, "My surname is not Tang, but my surname is Xiao, I just look like your friends, just now I I have explained it to Young Master Li."

Looking back at Li Xiao, Li Xiao immediately understood and nodded at Piao Piao, "Yeah, it's just a resemblance. You are heavy, go back and rest first."

Piao Piao was full of doubts, but didn't say much, turned around and left the lobby.

But when she walked around a corner, she stopped and looked back in the direction of Tang Xiao and Li Xiao.

And her eyes, which were originally foggy and watery, flashed a different emotion.

It was a cool autumn day, and after Tang Xiao sat there and drank two sips of tea with Li Xiao, she directly explained her intentions.

She asked, "When your father left Yuyang City, what did he take with him?"

"Things?" Li Xiao smiled wryly, "Everything in the house has been searched, so where can we take it away?"

"Except for valuables, is there nothing else?"

Speaking of this, Li Xiao sighed, "Father is a dignified prime minister, but when we left Yuyang City, our family took only a box of clothes. These things at home are still gifts from relatives at home."

Hearing this, Tang Xiao frowned suddenly.

Think about it when the prime minister was imprisoned, the people in the palace had searched the prime minister's mansion, if there was anything, it should have been taken away at that time, how could it be kept until now?

At this time, Li Xiao sighed from the side, "Our family, the only one who was taken away from Yuyang City, should be this life. Heh, a hard life... Others are returning home in good clothes, but we are lucky, just a short Lived directly from begging."

What Li Xiao said was unintentional, but Tang Xiao felt a chill down his spine when he heard it.

And at this moment, Li Xiao suddenly remembered something, "That's right! Recently I found out something related to you."

Li Xiao's words brought Tang Xiao back to his senses.

Tang Xiao only felt that he might be thinking too much, so he asked, "What's the matter?"

"The thing about Xiao Shizi being assassinated back then!"

"..."

This incident has already been sealed in Tang Xiao's memory, and it is really embarrassing to find it out again.

Li Xiao continued, "I heard that the person who pleaded guilty was beaten into a trick."

Tang Xiao was a little surprised, "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure. I heard that all the people in the prison at that time heard his screams, but in the end they were still held with their heads pressed."

Having said that, Tang Xiao vaguely remembered what the old man had told her in prison.

It seems that someone has indeed been beaten into a trick.

But thinking about it again, Tang Xiao suddenly remembered that his brother had said that his father went to find the princess.

In addition, the eldest princess is so good at interrogating, I am afraid that she handles everything by herself.

The person who was beaten into a trick was afraid that he died in vain because of himself.

Thinking of this, Tang Xiao's heart sank.

But at this time, Li Xiao said from the side, "And I asked someone to investigate this case, and it's also very strange."

Li Xiao said that the person who investigated the case today either died in an accident, or suddenly left Yuyang City with his family.

This matter makes sense.

After all, let someone else replace the crime, and the person involved in the case really cannot stay in Yuyang City.

But what makes people find it incomprehensible is that the eldest princess Zeng Jin came forward and told them that there is no need to investigate further.

Actually speaking, this case is an unsolved case from beginning to end.Even if the eldest princess accepted her father's entrustment, but... But there is no need to stop the investigation so decisively and find a scapegoat.

After all, maybe the murderer could be found in a few days?

unless--

Unless the eldest princess knows who the murderer is, she doesn't want to let those yamen servants investigate further.

Leaving!

It's this woman again!

In Tang Xiao's mind, the woman who seemed to be smiling forever but whose eyes were cold and heartless appeared.

"Besides, Prince Peace's death is also strange!"

"There are rumors, in fact...the death of Prince Pinghe was carried out by the Lingxi Palace under the order of the eldest princess. As for the detailed work, it is just to appease the children of Prince Pinghe who are far away in the fief."

"..."

Lingxi Palace?

Feng Ling?

Ah!

Thinking back on the suffering he suffered at the beginning, now that Li Xiao said so, Tang Xiao only felt that he was not only stupid and stupid back then, but also completely brainless!
