Rebirth: The paranoid war king was controlled by the crazy female protagonist

After she left, Xiao Yanzhou did not stay long, but after a while he noticed something strange behind him.

He Yi naturally noticed it, and asked him what he meant in a low voice, "Your Majesty, I will get rid of them right away."

"No need." He thought, maybe it was someone around Xiaoyu.

"Let's go and get rid of them."

"It's Your Majesty."

They hid themselves in the crowd and soon shook off the people who were following them.

"Your Majesty, it has been thrown off."

Xiao Yanzhou was silent for a moment, "It seems that he is not an ordinary follower."

"Let's go back to the palace."

Along the way, his past with Jiang Qingyu flooded into his mind, but apart from the memories of more than ten years ago, he had hardly seen her, as if she had disappeared in the Jiang Mansion.

"He Yi, check everything about the Jiang family's children for me, don't let it leak out."

"It's Your Majesty."

He paused, remembering what he had missed, "Did the previous matter have any results?"

"I found a clue in the palace, but there is no complete evidence, so I dare not..."

"Speak." He interrupted neatly.

He Yi was suddenly startled, and did not dare to hesitate any longer, "It seems to be related to Lord Jiang."

His slightly frowned brows were full of ghostly intent, and he snorted coldly, "Humph! This old fox is really getting more and more unscrupulous. Does he think I will always indulge him?"

"Summon him to the palace tomorrow."

If this is true, then everything that happened in the past six months is closely related to the Jiang family.

"By the way, check for me what Jiang Qingyu is doing in Huanxiang Pavilion."

Jiang Zhuo was willing to let Jiang Qingyu return to the brothel even at the cost of his reputation, so what did he want to gain by using her?

……

Qing Yu heaved a sigh of relief only after returning to the house and making sure that no one was there.

For some reason, she was always worried that Xiao Yanqing would suddenly appear. In the current situation, Xiao Yanqing already understood her habitual "tactics", which made her speechless and unable to explain her intentions.

After she finished her bath, she pondered today's events, the troubles in the man's life, and the suppressed ambition in his heart. She seemed to be more and more certain of the relationship between this man and Xiao Yanqing. Could it be...

Brother?

She came to this conclusion.

In Jiang Qingyu's memory, there is not much left related to the royal family. From what he knows during this period, Xiao Yanqing has two or three brothers who are in power, but their power is no match for Xiao Yanqing. Could it be that they are rising in secret?

Who could it be?

Boat…

She suddenly thought of this word. Is there anyone whose name has the word "zhou" in it?

Late at night, after learning that the guards had lost him, Xiao Yanqing tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Since he was able to shake off his guards, it at least shows that the man is very strong and alert.

He wanted to convince himself not to care, but now as soon as he closed his eyes, he could see her face playing and laughing with others.

It really made him even more angry, as if there was a breath stuck in his chest that couldn't dissipate for a long time.

Fortunately, he got dressed and went to find her.

He wanted to know, what on earth was this woman going to do?!

Qing Yu lay on the bed for a while and looked out the window. Suddenly, he felt a figure behind the door and his expression tensed and he became alert.

She quickly turned over and hid by the door, ready to go.

Who is it?

As soon as the door opened, the man seemed to have anticipated her location, and before she could react, he had grabbed her hand, and they fell onto the bed together, subduing her.

Taking advantage of the moonlight, she could see his delicate features. The anger between his brows also seeped through his frozen eyes. Only then did she see the man in front of her clearly.

"Your Highness?!" A hint of doubt flashed across her watery eyes.

Why is Xiao Yanqing here?

Xiao Yanqing met her gaze and did not intend to let go. His suppressed anger and breath pressed on her chest, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

He looked like he was in a bad mood.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that he was slow to speak, she asked in a low voice, and did not struggle to break free.

"Don't you have anything to tell me?" His tone was not harsh, but the boiling coolness in his voice struck her nerves.

She quickly thought about it in her mind. Of course there is, but...

She swallowed, "Your Highness, are you not going to let me go?"

"I don't plan to." Unexpectedly, he admitted it directly.

Qing Yu: “…”

She tugged at her fingers helplessly and said frankly, "Jiang Zhuo came to see me."

"Jiang Zhuo? What did he say?" He frowned slightly, obviously not knowing about this matter, and immediately realized the danger that was about to happen.

"He said he wanted me to meet someone in a few days."

"who?"

She shook her head. "I'll know when the time comes."

He lowered his eyes in thought, his tightly drawn eyelashes concealing some of his emotions, "Okay, I get it."

"continue."

She was confused. What should I continue? I have already finished talking about this.

"Gone."

"Gone?!" Upon hearing her answer, the fierce look in his black pupils dimmed a little.

The irritation in his expression was about to burst out, "Jiang Qingyu, I will give you another chance."

She was so close to her body that she could almost feel the vibrations in his chest.

"Really... it's gone." She muttered guiltily.

I tried my best to hide my nervousness. Did he know? Or was he seen?

Seeing that she was going to keep it a secret to the end, he immediately became angry and raised his voice suddenly, "Do you think I dare not do anything to you?!"

An indescribable uneasiness spread in her heart. It was not that she was afraid of what he would do, but that the time she expected had not yet come, and she could not anger him now.

Seeing the worry in her eyes and her rapidly beating heart, he spoke again to remind her, "Tell me! Who did you go to see?"

"Friends," she whispered, without the momentum she had before.

It seems that he really knew it.

"friend?!"

"Is it the same person from last time?"

"Yes…"

"Why do you want to see him?" He pressed on.

"I want to play together so..."

"Jiang Qingyu, don't try to fool me this time. Do you want to use him? Or... do you like him?"

There are only these two possibilities that would make her take the risk and even hide it from him.

As he pressed her, her heart beat faster and faster. He was right. Things were indeed developing in the direction she had worried about. After that scene, he had come to understand himself better and better.

I don’t know if this is good or bad…

Seeing her dazed look, he released his hand that was pinning her down and stood up.

"I'm right, am I?"

What a cunning woman.

Stunned, she sat up and looked at him uncertainly, knowing that this was not the end of the punishment for hiding his secret from her, but the beginning of another punishment.

So how does he want to punish me, and how should I respond to it to ensure that I have complete control over him?

"Who is he?" His eyebrows twitched, and the moonlight coming in from the window added to the oppression he was carrying.

"I...I don't know." Facing his gloomy and somewhat scary expression, she chose to answer truthfully.

"You don't know?" He didn't believe it!

Even if she couldn't be sure, she must have had some guesses about his identity. Whatever it was, it couldn't be the three words "I don't know".

He tried his best to suppress his anger, but he was still relieved by her dazed answer.

He grabbed her neck, brought her close to him, and gritted his teeth, "Jiang Qingyu! Is it because I'm too good to you that you forget your current situation?!"

The strangled throat made her unable to breathe, "No..."

"Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you can control my emotions?!"

She was slightly startled. Could it influence his emotions?

"No...I...will not hurt Your Highness."

The hand that was pinching her neck trembled slightly. He was clearly about to see through her and could clearly feel that she cared about him.

But why is she still unwilling to face him honestly? !

"Why is that?"

"Is this the thing that I can't satisfy you? He can satisfy you?!"

"No..." She swallowed uncontrollably, breathing becoming increasingly difficult.

Even so, she didn't get angry, nor did she push him away.

Noticing the tears flashing in her eyes, he felt pity for her, and he grabbed her neck and pulled her into his arms, hugging her tightly.

She fell straight into his arms. She didn't understand. Why didn't he punish her when he was so angry? Why did he hug her when he hated her for lying to him?
