MTL - Ci Jinzhi

  The moment Xin You met King Shang Qing's gaze, Xin You knew that the other party's intentions were not good.

  What does it matter? Ever since she said those words to Daize, she has been waiting for this day.

  It doesn't matter if she is being rude or rude, as long as she can take King Qing's life today, it will be a success for her.

  Xin You walked over steadily, and calmly saluted King Qing: "I have met His Highness King Qing."

  King Qing raised his chin: "Xiao Wang goes out in a micro-clothes, Miss Kou doesn't need to be polite. Come here today, I have something to say to Miss Kou."

   "His Royal Highness Prince Qing, please follow me." Xin You led King Qing to the reception room.

  King Qing turned around and ordered the two attendants who were following him: "Just stay here and watch over."

  Some things, the less people know, the better.

  As for Miss Kou—a murderous intent welled up in King Qing's eyes.

  If it is really a fortune-telling to calculate some information, you can still consider keeping her alive. If you have a plan, you will never let her live!

  In the reception room, the blue vase still held wild cherry blossoms, but the pink was replaced by snow white.

  Liu Zhou brought in the tea and returned it, and the door of the reception room was also closed.

  With two cups of tea in between, King Qing looked at the girl opposite.

  His eyebrows are exquisite, noble and natural, which makes him instinctively disliked.

  King Qing didn't want to admit that he couldn't help feeling a little jealous when facing this girl who looked a little like his aunt.

  This inexplicable emotion made King Qing feel even worse, and he was cold when he opened his mouth: "Miss Kou, Xiao Wang doesn't like to show off, so I just said it straight."

  Xin You held the teacup, leaned forward slightly, and made a posture of listening carefully: "His Royal Highness, please speak."

  King Qing was also playing with the teacup, but he didn't intend to take a sip: "Miss Kou told Dai Ze that my uncle's death was related to me. What does it mean?"

  The **** the opposite side became nervous: "Did Mr. Dai tell His Royal Highness King Qing?"

   "These are not important." Qing Wang looked impatient, "Xiao Wang just wants to know, what does my uncle's death have to do with me!"

  Xin Youzai looked at King Qing carefully.

  King Qing sneered: "Miss Kou is showing Xiao Wang's face?"

  Xin You pursed her lips, her expression calmed down: "It seems His Highness King Qing doesn't believe this. Since you don't believe it, Your Highness, please go back."

Let go of the hand playing with the teacup, and slapped it on the table. At this moment, that obviously handsome face was only ruthless: "This king calls you 'Miss Kou', you really take yourself seriously! You What is it, dare to be proud of yourself in front of this king!"

  In the small reception room, without a third person, King Qing released his condescension and meanness without any scruples.

  The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the girl showed humiliated indignation on her face: "Ministers don't dare to be arrogant in front of His Royal Highness Prince Qing. But since His Royal Highness Qing doesn't believe it, why waste time with me."

   Seeing her getting up and about to go out, King Qing grabbed her and said, "Stop! Does this king allow you to go?"

   During the tug and tug, the two were close at hand.

   King Qing is three inches taller than Xin You. Although he is not as tall as the crown, the skeleton of a man is not comparable to that of a girl.

The pressure of the past few days, the urgency to know the truth, the sense of being offended by the girl in front of her who is not obedient, and the common-sense cognition of her absolute superiority in physical strength, all these factors add up to make the girl who is not familiar enough and has not gained King Qing's trust. Xin You got the chance to get close to the target.

   "His Royal Highness Prince Qing, if you embarrass me like a little girl, aren't you afraid that it will affect your reputation?"

  These words made King Qing even more annoyed: "You still dare to threaten this king?"

  He pinched the girl's chin with one hand and tightened it without hesitation: "I really don't understand, what gave you the confidence to be neither humble nor arrogant in front of this king? Princess Zhaoyang? Or the fifty thousand taels you donated..."

  These sarcastic words entered Xin You's ears without leaving any trace in her heart. She maintained an expression of anger and humiliation on her face, but her mind was astonishingly calm, and she quietly raised one hand when King Qing was talking more and more freely.

   Between her fingers is a sharp blade as thin as a cicada's wing, as long as the irritated man's throat is wiped—

   There was a sound, followed by shouts from King Qing's attendants: "Stop! Be bold!"

  Xin You and King Qing looked over together.

  Outside the door of the reception room that was kicked open, He Qingxiao's red clothes were still the same, her eyebrows and eyes were like snow, and her eyes were fixed on the two of them.

  The distance between the two is very close, even if they are startled by his sudden intrusion, they can still see that the sword is on the verge of breaking out.

  King Qing threw away his hand and rushed over angrily: "He Qingxiao, what do you mean?"

  The person who was still guarding him outside the door dared to kick the door in. Is He Qingxiao crazy?

   Being offended one after another, King Qing's anger rose to the extreme.

   Facing the angry King Qing, He Qingxiao calmly cupped his hands: "I don't know that the one inside is His Highness Qing, but I hope His Highness will forgive you."

   "I don't know? Didn't you see the king's attendants outside the door?"

  He Qingxiao followed King Qing's gaze to look at the two attendants, and said calmly: "I am in a hurry to handle the case. Seeing that these two people were dressed in ordinary clothes, I didn't recognize them as His Highness's attendants, and they didn't declare their identities. I'm really sorry for disturbing His Highness."

   "You—" King Qing wanted to lose his temper, and looked at He Qingxiao, who was in a vermilion official uniform, and Jin Linwei, who was following behind him, and held back.

  Jin Linwei's handling of cases can be large or small, and it is easy to be bitten back if it is stained.

  As the door of the reception room opened and Jin Linwei appeared, the atmosphere Xin You deliberately created disappeared, and King Qing's sanity returned.

   "Xiao Wang can't figure out why Master Hou broke into Miss Kou's reception room when he was handling the case." King Qing looked at He Qingxiao, then at Xin You, and asked meaningfully.

  Faced with such questions, He Qingxiao was calm and unhurried: "Just because the matter to be investigated may have something to do with Ms. Kou, I need to bring Ms. Kou back to the Yamen for questioning."

  King Qing thought of Jin Linwei who had been haunting the streets these past few days, and his heart moved, and he lost most of his doubts about He Qingxiao's words.

  He Qingxiao cupped his hands: "If His Highness King Qing has nothing else to do, I will take Miss Kou away."

  King Qing turned his body sideways: "It's nothing, I just came to ask Miss Kou, what new stories does Mr. Song Ling have?"

   Speaking of this, he took a deep look at Xin You: "Miss Kou, do you think so?"

  Xin You lowered her eyes, visibly trembling, and took a long time to utter a word: "Yes."

   This kind of reaction made King Qing somewhat satisfied.

  If he had recognized his weakness from the very beginning, and hadn't acted neither humble nor overbearing in front of him, it wasn't that he couldn't listen to her nonsense patiently.

   "Miss Kou, I haven't finished asking about the new book yet. Xiao Wang will come to ask for advice another day." After King Qing finished speaking, he strode away.

  He Qingxiao spoke, breaking the brief silence: "Miss Kou, let's go."

  Xin You followed behind him, walked out of the bookstore without saying a word, and was taken to the Fusi Yamen in Beizhen.

   This was the first time she entered this kind of place, and she remained expressionless from the time she entered until she was brought into a room.

  He Qingxiao signaled his subordinates to retreat, and there were only two people left in the room.

  He looked at her for a long time before asking softly, "Miss Kou, is there...no one you care about in this world?"
