"He ran away that night." He said coldly, then hugged Feng Xin and left the house. Although he was facing his mother, it did not mean that he recognized her approach.

He also disliked that wild man.

...

Just when everyone thought Xiao Zhen was dead and his body was escorted back to Suzhou by his personal guards, Xiao Zhen was drinking tea with Xie Jingrun at the bottom of the cliff.

No one knows that there is actually a different world at the bottom of the cliff. The soldiers brought back from Suzhou by Xiao Zhen settled here.

In the thatched hut, Xiao Zhen was leisurely savoring the tea.

Although he didn't really feel a cold, he thanked Jing Run, but this time he had to admit that he was very quick in his work and had strategy.

This time he arranged the matter.

He had long guessed that Situ Wuji would send someone to assassinate him, so he let him go with the flow and fall to the cliff and pretend to die.

In order to make Situ Wuji believe that he was dead, Xie Jingrun also prepared the body of a death row prisoner in advance to numb the killers.

At present, Situ Wuji has believed it because the news came from the Jinyiwei, and there was rumors outside that the emperor set up a plan to kill him on the grounds that he had held troops and respected himself.

This is likely to be a rumor that Situ Wuji sent to make people spread to anger his soldiers. At that time, Situ Wuji raised an army to force the palace, and his soldiers would have a grudge against the emperor because of his death and would not want to go to serve the king.

And all these were argued by Xie Jingrun.

Xie Jingrun looked at the sky outside, put down his cup, stood up, "King Su can lead his troops into the city tomorrow night."

"I know." Xiao Zhen nodded, stood up, and suddenly slapped his shoulder with a palm, "Are you interested in my Qingqing?"

Xie Jingrun frowned, resisted the urge to wave his hand, glanced at him, and said disapprovingly: "As far as I know, she hasn't recognized you yet. Is it too early for King Su to say this?" What does it mean to be from his family? Rong Qingqing hasn't called him father yet, so he has the nerve to say from his family. Humph!

Xiao Zhen was stunned.

Xie Jingrun was right. Qingqing did not reject him, but she never called him.

Thinking of this, he felt a little sad, but confident, "It will take her a matter of time before she recognizes me. We are father and daughter, and we have a blood relationship that cannot be cut off."

Xie Jingrun could not refute this.

"I'm leaving." He waved his hand away and left.

Looking at the young man hiding on the mountain road, Xiao Zhen realized that the boy had not answered his question at all.

So is he interested in Qingqing or unintentional?

However, judging from what he said to Qingqing last night, this kid clearly had something to do with her.

Thinking of this, he snorted coldly.

The brat wants to marry his daughter, but his attitude is so arrogant, be careful that he doesn't agree.

Xie Jingrun, who had already left the valley, suddenly sneezes.

He frowned and touched his nose. Someone must have cursed him in the dark!

At this time, Situ Mansion.

Situ Wuji was discussing with his sons and aides about the imprisonment for the palace tomorrow night. He didn't know at all that he was getting into someone else's trap.

He stroked the token in his hand and was determined to win tomorrow night's imprisonment.

...

As soon as Xie Jingrun returned to the mansion, he saw Xiao Tao waiting by the door and looking around.

Seeing him, Xiaotao immediately walked over.

"What's the matter?" Xie Jingrun asked while walking in.

"Mr. Marquis, my lady asks you to come to her later. She wants to tell you if she has something to do." Xiao Tao whispered.

Xie Jingrun paused, a little surprised.

"I understand." He responded and quickly returned to Qingfengyuan.

At night, Qinfang Garden.

Rong Qingqing was in the room, doing yoga while waiting for Xie Jingrun.

However, she had been waiting for most of the day and could not see that guy.
