"Now, I don't need to deny it. Believe it or not, I didn't do the massacre of the village." Xiao Jie's face quickly returned to normal, and he calmly said to Li Tong.

"Impossible, who else could it be except you!" Li Tong almost broke down emotionally, spurting out a mouthful of blood.

Xiao Jie shook his head lightly, and said: "I will definitely admit what I have done, but I don't like being framed for things I haven't done, I know who did it, and I will definitely not let it go like this .”

Li Tong was stunned on the spot, and he also understood that Xiao Jie really didn't need to deny it anymore, the prince in front of him really didn't do the massacre of the village, they really sought the wrong revenge.

He looked blankly at the brothers who died tragically around him, filled with grief and indignation, let out a violent drink, and stabbed the big knife into his chest fiercely with his backhand...

Xiao Jie shook his head helplessly, what is this called!

At this time, there was a sound of chaotic footsteps outside the gate, followed by Chen Shan's anxious voice: "His Royal Highness, the little rescue is late, are you okay?"

Xiao Jie sneered, it was really timely, he just came to help him wash the floor.

Xiao Jie ordered people to open the gate, and Chen Shan led the people to rush in, but he was shocked by the scene in front of him. There was a large area of ​​blood on the ground, and there were bodies of Yue people all over the place. On the contrary, the Han soldiers looked unsatisfied.

Chen Shan knew that the Han soldiers brought by Xiao Jie were brave and good at fighting, but he didn't want the combat power to be so terrifying that the attackers would be wiped out, and those attacked would be unscathed.

Chen Shan saw that Xiao Jie's clothes were covered with blood, he couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly asked: "Your Highness, these thieves didn't hurt you, did they?"

Chen Shan was really afraid that something would happen to Xiao Jie, once Xiao Jie made any mistakes in Jiaozhi, let alone the prefect of Jiaozhi and Qinghuahou, his own life would be lost.

Xiao Jie looked down at the blood on his clothes, and smiled faintly: "These are not my blood, what can I do?"

Only then did Chen Shan heave a long sigh of relief, and then glanced at the scattered corpses on the ground, and hurriedly confessed: "It's the little one who neglected his duty. The little one must find out who these culprits were ordered by, and dare to misbehave with His Highness."

Xiao Jie shook his head lightly, and said: "There is no need to investigate, I have asked them all, they were all instructed by those old nobles in Jiaozhi, they were dissatisfied with me confiscating their land property in Jiaozhi and distributing it to the common people, so they sent these people to murder me .”

Chen Shan didn't know whether he was really angry or just to please Xiao Jie, he gritted his teeth and said: "These people are so bold, the little ones will never let them go."

Xiao Jie nodded slightly: "I will leave this matter to you, and you must not let go of any old Cochin nobles who are dissatisfied with me and Daning."

Chen Shan immediately took orders: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I understand!"

Now that things have happened, Xiao Jie can only make mistakes, and push the deaths of these people to the old nobles of Jiaozhi to further cleanse the noble forces of Jiaozhi.

As for this new enmity between him and Xiao Huang, it will last forever.

Xiao Jie asked Chen Shan to take someone to clean up the corpses in the front yard, and then followed Ye Qiu back to the backyard.

"His Royal Highness, have these assassins confessed that they were all ordered by the old nobles of Cochin?"

Ye Qiu can't listen to more words, so he doesn't know what Li Tong said to Xiao Jie. He only heard Xiao Jie tell Chen Shan that these assassins were ordered by the old Cochin nobles. He felt a little strange, Li Tong didn't look like that. A person who is afraid of death, how could he easily betray the mastermind behind the scenes.

Xiao Jie smiled lightly, and told Ye Qiu the whole truth without concealing it.

"How could King Qin kill innocent people so indiscriminately, and trap His Highness in injustice." Ye Qiu was shocked and angry after hearing this, and couldn't believe it.

On the contrary, Xiao Jie didn't take it seriously, shrugged his shoulders and said: "The battle for the heir apparent has always been like this, there is no brotherhood at all, if I were in his position, maybe I would do the same thing. "

Ye Qiu sighed, and seemed to think of his younger brother who was far away in Dihu, and fell silent for a while.

Xiao Jie seemed to have thought of something, and asked with a cold smile: "By the way, we will leave Jiaozhi in a few days, will Miss Zhao come back to the Central Plains with us?"

When Ye Qiu heard the word "Ms. Zhao", her expression became a little unnatural for a moment, and she said, "Now that Ms. Zhao's parents have passed away, it is not safe for her to stay in Cochin as a weak woman. Your Highness is worse than a good person to the end. Why not bring her back to the Central Plains together."

Xiao Jie smiled playfully and reminded Ye Qiu: "But the Zhao county magistrate's whole family was demoted to Jiaozhi, and they are not allowed to return to the Central Plains unless they are called."

Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment, he really hadn't thought about this, and then looked at Xiao Jie with some begging eyes: "Your Highness, Miss Zhao is really pitiful, please help him to plead with the emperor."

Xiao Jie laughed: "Why do you need to ask my father if you want Miss Zhao to return to the Central Plains? I have a good way myself!"

Ye Qiu was overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurriedly asked: "Your Highness, tell me quickly, what is a good way?"

Xiao Jie laughed again: "It's very simple, you just marry Miss Zhao, she has become your wife, so naturally you can go back to the Central Plains with your husband."

Ye Qiu couldn't help but blushed, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, don't make fun of your subordinates anymore, how can this be possible."

Seeing that he was still stubborn, Xiao Jie frowned deliberately: "It seems that I messed up the mandarin ducks. Since Ye Sima, you don't want to marry Miss Zhao, then I will ask if there is any unmarried brother in the army." Willing to marry Miss Zhao..."

"Your Highness, marriage is such a trifling matter... Well, I'm just afraid that Ms. Zhao will be educated and sensible, and she will look down on such a martial artist like me." Ye Qiu originally wanted to continue to argue, but seeing Xiao Jie's expression that seemed to be a smile that was not a smile , I didn't dare to deny it for an instant, so I could only blushed and expressed my worries.

Xiao Jie patted Ye Qiu's shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I know you have a thin skin, I will ask Miss Zhao for you, but I can see that Miss Zhao will definitely not look down on you."

Ye Qiu's nose felt a little sore, it was really my parents who gave birth to me, Your Highness who knew me, the thing I regret most in this life is messing around with Xiao Jie.

Xiao Jie continued to speak earnestly and earnestly: "You have also made great contributions to quelling the Cochin Rebellion this time, my father will definitely reward you, and you will definitely not have to run away when you become a general, but you should know that the court has protons in the court. Rules, if you are alone, the imperial court will not dare to reuse you."

Ye Qiu's heart was once again filled with emotions. This Highness really helped him think about everything.
