Xiao Lingyue raised her lips and smiled, turning to look at him: "If the dignified King Yi wants to punish someone, does it matter whether he has a reason... or not?"
There was a bit of ridicule in her tone, but what she said was true.
If Zhan Beihan really wanted to die alone, no matter whether there was a reason or not, he would have plenty of ways.
Especially in the Northern Qin Kingdom, not only could he cover the sky with one hand, but there were only a few people who could really influence him, even Emperor Zhaoming might not be able to do it.
Therefore, whether the crime was innocent or not, Xiao Lingyue didn't take it to heart at all.
Zhan Beihan stared at her deeply: "You are indeed very courageous."
Moreover, she had an indescribable understanding and familiarity with him, as if she could directly guess what he would think and do.
This kind of understanding is not something that a stranger who meets by chance can have. At least, it is an old friend who has a close relationship with him.
Who is she?
The man's eyes darkened slightly.
Xiao Lingyue never thought that her random words could arouse Zhan Beihan's suspicion. She smiled and squinted at him teasingly: "Don't you already know whether I am courageous or not? There's no need for it.
Repeat?"
"So, how much of what you said is true and how false?" Zhan Bei said coldly, "Or is it all false?"
"Everything I tell you now is true."
Xiao Lingyue was too lazy to get up, so she simply lay on the ground, looking at the looming moon in the sky: "You can believe it if you want to, but if you don't want to, I can't help it."
Zhan Beihan leaned over and stared at her: "I will give you a chance to tell the truth."
Xiao Lingyue smiled lazily and said, "What do you want to ask?"
"Are you from Nanyan?" Zhan Beihan asked bluntly.
"It was before, but not now."
"What is the purpose of returning to Beijing in place of Shen Wan?" Zhan Beihan asked again.
"There is no purpose." Xiao Lingyue blinked.
"lie!"
The man leaned over her, with his back to the moonlight. His handsome and sharp eyebrows were outlined, looming, and his narrow phoenix eyes were sharp and bright, and he could easily see through her lies.
Xiao Lingyue really had a headache: "If you are afraid that I will be detrimental to Northern Qin...then you can rest assured that I only returned to the capital for personal matters and have nothing to do with Nan Yan."
"What private matter?" Zhan Bei asked coldly.
There is a posture of getting to the bottom of things.
Xiao Lingyue looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile: "It's said to be a private matter...His Royal Highness, King Yi, has no connection with me. Isn't it a good idea to ask so clearly?"
"Your identity and origin are unknown. If you don't explain clearly, you can't get rid of the suspicion." Zhan Beihan said in a cold tone.
Xiao Lingyue's mouth twitched: "..."
What kind of suspicion? It was obviously him who doubted her unilaterally.
"I don't want to say it." Xiao Lingyue raised her eyes and looked at him, "I know that the safety of Northern Qin is your responsibility, and it is right for you to be suspicious, but I have already said that I am only returning to Beijing for personal matters. After the matter is done, I will
Leaving immediately will not cause any harm to Northern Qin. For this reason, I think I am sincere enough. If King Yi insists on forcing others to make things difficult, then there is nothing I can do."
She had only one purpose in returning to Beijing, which was to collect the medicinal materials needed for Beibei's detoxification.
But he couldn't tell Zhan Beihan about this.
If he knew about it, he would definitely get to the bottom of it and investigate what kind of poison Beibei was poisoned and how he was poisoned...
If we dig deeper and deeper like this, the identities of mother and son will definitely not be preserved, and we don’t know how many things will be involved by then.
Xiao Lingyue didn't want to cause more trouble.
She smiled bitterly and said: "I know that as His Royal Highness, King Yi, there are many ways to deal with and embarrass me, and I don't want to be your enemy." Hot 『』 This chapter has been completed!
