Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

"Brother, wait a minute." Jiang Xue stood up and looked around cautiously. It was quiet late at night, and there were no other diners in the courtyard. Only a few gentle frog sounds occasionally came from the pond.

"If you say it here, I'm worried that the walls have ears." Jiang Xue whispered.

Jiang Yu smiled and said: "I brought a few close followers with me when I came here. They are guarding here. If there is any movement, they will warn you."

Hearing this, Jiang Xue sat down hesitantly and lowered her voice to Jiang Yu: "Second Emperor Brother, to be honest, Jing Ye and I are also investigating this matter, and we have found some clues."

"Jing Ye?" Jiang Yu frowned, "Why is he involved in this matter?"

"It's a long story," Jiang Xueyao said. "This matter is related to his involvement in domestic affairs. In fact, it was because the state of Qian went against the party's will and colluded with some people in the country of Hebei that the war horse came to Beijing."

Jiang Yu nodded and said: "In recent days, I and Master Chong, the Minister of the Ministry of War, have found a lot of clues. If you also get any information and clues, why not share them with me. After all, it is related to border military defense. It's always easier to investigate it with the Ministry of War."

Jiang Xue was stunned for a moment and said, "Master Chong?"

Chonghuan?

Did they ever find out that the person in charge of buying and selling troops and horses with Bei Xi was Zhou Di, an aide under Chong Huan?

If Chonghuan is also involved and takes this opportunity to deceive the second emperor brother, if she tells the story about Zhou Di, it will be very difficult to investigate the matter further.

Jiang Xue frowned deeply and decided to think twice before acting.

Jiang Yu said: "Yes, Mr. Chong has been the Minister of the Ministry of War for many years. He is an upright man and the most unruly person in his eyes. I have been investigating this matter with him for a while. I am afraid that there is something wrong with the horse affairs over the border. "

"Brother Imperial, have you ever told anyone else about this matter?"

Jiang Yu shook his head and said: "The traitor is in the dark and we are in the open. It is of great importance and I have not said anything to anyone. There are only a few clues about this matter now. I also told Mr. Chong that he and I will pursue it secretly. We will borrow all the clues." This is the reason for rectifying military affairs, and no one else will know."

Jiang Xue felt relieved, nodded, and said, "Also, my grandfather is still ill after all, so don't bother him with this matter."

Jiang Yu said: "Yes, speaking of which, my grandfather has also been on leave for many days. If you have time during these days, you and I can go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to visit him."

"It should be," Jiang Xue gently patted the back of Jiang Yu's hand and said, "Brother, I will enter the palace tomorrow to pay my respects to my mother. If you are free, come to Changle Palace in the afternoon and we will talk then. Not now At the time of speaking, Jing Ye and Brother He's family were still waiting inside. The deeper the night goes, the more conspicuous we become. Let's finalize the matter in Jiaodong first, and we'll talk about the rest tomorrow."

Jiang Yu looked at her, hesitating to speak, but felt that what she said was reasonable, and this was indeed not the place to talk seriously, so he nodded in agreement.

"But there is one thing, I have to tell you a few more words at this time."

He looked at Jiang Xue with a serious look and said, "I see that you and Jing Ye are a little too close. Although you are involved in the same case, he is not an ordinary person after all. You seem to trust him so much. But what confidence do you have about him?"

"It's hard to say if you're not sure," Jiang Xue smiled and said, "But after getting along with each other these days, Jing Ye is a pretty good person. They are just allies, so the emperor brother doesn't have to worry too much."

There was some hesitation in Jiang Yu's eyes, and he said: "Although I know that Gu Lintan is not worthy of being your husband, and I don't want to bind you with any etiquette and preaching, you still need to be cautious if you choose the person you like. I watched You are very different from Jing Ye, Xue'er, according to the emperor's words, Jing Ye is really complicated and unpredictable, you..."

Jiang Xue was stunned for a moment and said: "Brother Second Emperor, you are indeed worrying too much. The relationship between me and Jing Ye is not what you thought."

She brushed it off hastily and immediately changed the subject.

"By the way, speaking of Gu Lintan, the reason why I came here so late tonight is because of Gu Lintan's incident."

After that, she briefly explained to Jiang Yu what happened tonight and the arrangements for Su Xi's mother and son.

Jiang Yu's brows furrowed even more as he heard this, and he couldn't help but interrupt: "You want to put that child in the palace?"

Jiang Xue nodded and said: "For Gu Lintan, the mother and son are not only a handle, but also a constraint on his weakness. Now we are not the only ones who want to seize this weakness, but the people behind Gu Lintan also want to. I think that since he has chosen to hand over their mother and son to me tonight, it is the lesser of two evils."

"In this case, I will directly ask the mother to come forward and take the child to Yi'an Palace to raise. This will not only deter the people behind Gu Lintan, but also contain Gu Lintan."

"But will he really do what you want and willingly hand over the child?" Jiang Yu asked doubtfully.

"Maybe not," Jiang Xue said, then sneered, "But so what, I will leave him with no choice."

When the two returned to the door of the private room, it was quiet inside, not even a sound was heard. Jiang Xue raised her eyebrows, which she did not expect.

Mo Lian pushed the door open, and Jiang Xue took a look and saw only three people sitting silently. She was a little surprised. It was rare that Jing Ye and He Zhilin didn't have another conflict, but Lu Qiong Shuang was not a talkative person. .

Jiang Xue walked up behind Lu Qiong and patted her shoulder. Seeing her expression of despair, she turned her head. When she saw her, her mouth immediately became crooked as if she was about to cry.

Jiang Xue was about to ask a question when she saw Jiang Yu walking over and quickly reaching out to Lu Qiong's collarbones and squeaking twice, causing Lu Qiong to howl out immediately.

Jiang Xue understood immediately and glanced at Jing Ye with a hint of reproach. She saw that he was still drinking tea calmly and calmly, as if the matter had nothing to do with him. He then turned around to see Lu Qiong, who was both full and full. He looked resentful but dared not say anything. Suddenly he felt that this scene was really funny, so he covered his mouth and laughed out loud.

Lu Qiongshuang shouted to her angrily: "Cousin!" Then she turned around and stared at Jing Ye.

Jiang Xue couldn't help laughing and said: "How did you provoke him again?"

Lu Qiongshuang pursed her lips and said bitterly: "Who knows what happened to him! I just said a few words to Mr. He back then..."

"If you think the tongue is in the way," Jing Ye glanced over and interrupted Lu Qiongshuang's words, "I might as well help you get rid of it."

Lu Qiong's eyes were about to burst, and he growled like a wild little beast: "When I return to the East China Sea, I will definitely tell Master and let her know what you are doing outside..."

"Speaking of the East China Sea," Jing Ye said again leisurely, "If you really miss me and I'm not afraid of trouble if you are alone, I can send you back now."

Jiang Xue didn't want the two of them to continue arguing with each other, so she had no choice but to reach out and pat her back gently to comfort Lu Qiongshuang before she could speak, and said: "If you are really bored in this room, Why don't I have someone take you back to rest first, right?"

She raised her eyes and looked at He Zhilin in confusion, and said, "Why can't I see Jiang Qibin?"
