Only the father and son were left in the room.

Xiahou Qing felt a little complicated. frёewebnoѵēl.com

He had just experienced Xiahou Zheng’s betrayal. At this moment, the betrayal of anyone around him would be difficult for him to accept.

Moreover, the person being suspected was his closest second uncle.

Xie Jinnian lowered his eyes and didn’t say anything. He just stood there quietly.

A cold wind blew, shaking the candlelight on the stage. The shadow projected on the ground jumped sinisterly.

Finally, Xiahou Qing spoke, but he did not immediately ask if the news was true.

“You were close to that girl? You even told her such a big secret.”

This was a little unusual.

Xiahou Qing’s eyes were filled with doubt.

Xie Jinnian sighed softly. “I went to the Hundred Flowers Palace this morning and played a few rounds of chess with Yun Lin. He asked about the treasure map and the dragon crystal. I gave myself away a little and let him see that something was wrong. He said that if I didn’t tell the truth, he would report me to Foster Father. I had no choice but to tell him honestly about my subordinate discovering the fourth dragon crystal.”

At this point, he said helplessly, “I didn’t tell Second Young Madam in the carriage. Second Young Madam heard it outside the door herself. I underestimated Yun Lin. He’s very smart and I can’t hide anything from him.”

His words seemed to be narrating his helplessness, but he was actually praising Yun Lin and removing himself.

In any case, as long as Yun Lin was brought along, most of the matter would be resolved.

Xiahou Zheng was blinded by jealousy and insisted on going against Yun Lin. Otherwise, he would not have suffered a crushing defeat if he had flattered Yun Lin properly.

The suspicion in Xiahou Qing’s eyes dissipated a lot. He frowned and glanced at Xie Jinnian. “Which subordinate of yours saw it with his own eyes?”

“Ye Lang.”

Xie Jinnian finished speaking without changing his expression and took the initiative to ask, “Godfather, do you want to send him over for questioning?”

“No need.” Xiahou Qing looked at Xie Jinnian solemnly. “I’ll only ask you one last time. Are you sure the fourth dragon crystal is in Second Grandfather’s hands?”

Xie Jinnian met Xiahou Qing’s scrutiny without dodging. “I believe Ye Lang won’t lie to me.”

Xiahou Qing closed his eyes. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

Xie Jinnian lowered his eyes and said with a complicated expression, “I didn’t dare to. Besides… I also have a trace of doubt. Could it be that it’s just a resemblance and not the fourth dragon crystal that Foster Father has been looking for? I said the same to Yun Lin. I asked him not to say anything first. I’ll work hard to investigate.”

Su Xiaoxiao, who had heard it outside, was stunned by the Head Eunuch’s unfounded ability.

This guy made baskets in his previous life, right?

He was so good at making things up!

Xiahou Qing asked, “Who else did you mention the dragon crystal to?”

Xie Jinnian said, “Other than Yun Lin and Foster Father, no one else. Oh, including Second Young Madam, who was eavesdropping.”

Su Xiaoxiao muttered, “Eavesdropping my ass!”

After that, Xiahou Qing did not say anything else.

Xie Jinnian came out of the room.

Su Xiaoxiao glared at him and snorted. She shook her head and turned away!

Xie Jinnian looked at Su Xiaoxiao and smiled gently. “Foster Father, Second Young Madam asks if you have any other instructions?”

“No, you guys go back first.”

Xiahou Qing’s tired voice came from the room.

The two of them walked out of his bedroom.

Su Xiaoxiao placed her hands behind her back and swaggered ahead.

Xie Jin followed closely.

When they reached the deserted path, Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and said, “Are you still still going to me? Aren’t you going to frame me?”

Xie Jinnian said calmly, “Look back.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I can’t be bothered to look at you!”

Xie Jinnian said, “I think you’d better take a look.”

Su Xiaoxiao stopped and turned around strangely. Only then did she realize that her golden bracelet had hooked his sleeve and even pulled out a large portion of the thread.

This bracelet was given to her by Mother Palace Lord. Originally, there were two small auspicious cloud pendants hanging on it. Perhaps one of them had been pulled by Wei Xiaobao and was cut.

From the looks of it, it looked like she had dragged Xie Jinnian all the way.

Su Xiaoxiao looked shocked. “Just now… was it always like this?”

Xie Jinnian replied calmly, “Yes.”

Su Xiaoxiao felt terrible. “There were so many people on the way Why didn’t you remind me?”

Xie Jinnian said, “I thought you did it on purpose.”

Su Xiaoxiao’s face darkened.

Eunuch Head, are you addicted to scamming!

Just you wait!

A big move was coming!

Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly untied the thread on the bracelet and shouted angrily, “Wuhu!”

Xie Jinnian smiled. “It’s in the cage.”
