Seeing Jiang Fang lowering his head and saying nothing, Xiao Huaijin continued: "I don't need to tell you more about the reason, right? I think you are so smart that you must be able to see through the connection at a glance."
Jiang Fang was a little speechless. He didn't seem to be provoking anyone. Why did everything suddenly turn on him? He might as well be farming in Langtou Village. At least his life was still very stable.
Jiang Fang said: "Now that you have found me and said such things, do you think I still don't understand the connection? After all, isn't it just like using me as bait?"
Xiao Huaijin did not expect Jiang Fang to be so direct, but he also liked such direct conversations, so he said: "His target is you."
Jiang Fang said: "Either there are people from him in the imperial hospital, or there are people from him in your mother's concubine's Qiushui Palace, maybe there are both places.
Killing two birds with one stone, then it is indeed our remaining fifth prince, Xiao Huaiyan, who is the most suspicious, but now that there is no evidence, it can only be suspicion."
Xiao Huaijin said: "It's not that there is no evidence at all. I have sent a special person back to the Western Region to investigate Liu Yu's identity. I believe there will be news soon.
But what is imminent now is the birthday of the Queen Mother. All members of the royal family will gather here for this banquet. If something unexpected happens in front of everyone, it will be a matter of course for Lao Wu.
But before that, he must get rid of you first. The Queen Mother has a deep influence in this palace. In addition, she has stabilized the people's hearts in the past few days and won unanimous praise from the people.
As the legitimate daughter of the Queen Mother, you are naturally qualified, and with your reputation among the people, you are also a threat to him, so he will definitely take action in the next few days."
Jiang Fang looked at Xiao Huaijin and said, "I saved you twice. I thought you would come to repay my kindness."
Xiao Huaijin smiled bitterly: "Doesn't that mean I'm here to repay your kindness? Of course, I have a way to get out of this incident. If I hadn't been thinking about your life-saving grace, I wouldn't have had to wade through this muddy water."
Jiang Fang rolled his eyes. He was not here to repay a favor. He obviously wanted to use himself as a bait to kill Xiao Huaiyan, just in time to avenge Xiao Huaiyan's pursuit.
Xiao Huaijin looked at the fair and tender body, with the appearance of a scholar. He was still an old fox at heart. As expected, this royal person did not have a fuel-efficient lamp.
Jiang Fang asked: "Since you have analyzed this matter so thoroughly, of course you have some way to deal with it, right? Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Jiang Fang actually has many ways to protect himself, but now that someone is helping him find a way, he doesn't want to waste his brain. As long as the method is feasible, Jiang Fang will just cooperate.
Xiao Huaijin said: "People will be entering the palace one after another in the past few days. Lao Wu will definitely not bring anyone with him when he returns to the capital, but if he really has this intention, then he will naturally provide support.
But during this period of time, I have been in the southwest of the fiefdom, far away from Lao Wu, and I don't know his movements. He is in a remote place, so his actions must be cheap.
But he will not be allowed to be so unscrupulous in the palace. In the past few days, you have frequently left the palace to go to the Yan family. I guess he will probably play tricks on you.
If something happens to you on the way to the Yan family, the Yan family will definitely be involved. Mr. Yan Ge and the Queen Mother are not dealing with each other. Once this happens, there will be chaos.
Taking advantage of this chaos, Lao Wu took action again, so it was justified. He had already severed the relationship between the Queen Mother and Mr. Yan Ge. If Lao Wu took the opportunity to win over Mr. Yan Ge, he would directly secure the throne.
"
Jiang Fang naturally knew what Xiao Huaijin said, but Jiang Fang always had a question: "Your inference is that the Fifth Prince is the mastermind behind this.
But have you ever thought that if the mastermind behind this is not the Fifth Prince, then wouldn’t it kill two birds with one stone and make us brothers kill each other?”
Xiao Huaijin frowned. He did think that it would be someone else, but when he thought about it carefully, all the evidence pointed to Xiao Huaiyan.
At this moment, Jiang Fang suddenly began to doubt Xiao Huaijin. With such a great temptation to the throne, how could Xiao Huaijin, as a prince, not be tempted at all?
He has been making suggestions here. Although he saved his life, if these accidents were intentional on his own, just to gain his trust, it would not be unreasonable.
If you really do what Xiao Huaijin said, then it will be Xiao Huaiyan's life that is at stake. If there is any mistake in this, then your own life will most likely be lost.
Now that he thought about it carefully, Jiang Fang felt that he was sweating all the time. In this palace, the only people he could trust were Empress Dowager Jiang and Duan Jiu.
And now my identity is indeed a stumbling block in seizing the throne. If I want to eliminate Empress Dowager Jiang, I need to be eliminated as well.
Xiao Huaijin asked: "Why did you say this?"
Jiang Fang calmed down and said: "The Xiao family's royal family has a large number of people, and I have always felt that women are not qualified to step onto the throne.
It was only because they were afraid of the power of the Queen Mother that they never dared to make any mistakes. However, the Queen Mother's accession to the throne this time has been decided, which will inevitably disturb the people's hearts.
Although the late emperor still has two princes, they have all been granted titles, so they are all princes. How can it be that only Lao Wu is the one who wants to seek power?"
Xiao Huaijin asked: "Are you doubting me?"
Xiao Huaijin's attitude made Jiang Fang even more suspicious. She was clearly talking about so many people in the Xiao family, and everyone was actually suspicious, but Xiao Huaijin's first reaction was that Jiang Fang was doubting him.
Isn't this a typical case of a guilty conscience?
If all of this was planned by Xiao Huaijin himself, then this teenager who looks like a teenager really has a terrifying character.
With such a plan, he would not hesitate to use his own life as a bet, just to win his trust and then kill someone with a knife to plot against his other brother.
Jiang Fang said quickly: "How come your brain suddenly fails to work? You forgot that you still have two uncles. Do you think they don't have that kind of leisure time?"
Xiao Huaijin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You just need to know that I don't have this intention, so you should be careful about your own safety these days."
Xiao Huaijin's words stunned Jiang Fang, and he subconsciously asked: "Why don't you have such thoughts? I don't believe that there will be anyone who would not be tempted by this right to the world."
