"What do you mean, Your Highness the Night King?" Shen Lingling looked puzzled, "Why can't I understand what you are saying?"
"Don't you understand? Don't pretend to be an idiot." Ji Xun's cold eyes shot sharply at Shen Lingling, "Hurry up and tell us the true identity of Prime Minister Zhou."
At this moment, Shen Lingling's heart suddenly tightened, and her mind was spinning wildly. Could it be that the Night King already knew about Zhou Qian's impersonation of Prime Minister Zhou?
No, no, no, it's impossible. This matter was done so secretly. If it weren't for the most trusted person around Zhou Qian, it would be impossible to know the truth.
Although Shen Lingling was born in the countryside, she was also extremely smart. Although she was horrified inside, her face remained calm. When she heard the Night King's words, she showed an expression of confusion, but her other emotions were well concealed.
She quickly came to her own conclusion that the Night King must be deliberately tricking her.
After all, Prime Minister Zhou and Zhou Qian are two different people. Even if they pretend to be alike, there may still be some flaws. And the Night King is a very thoughtful person, so it is very possible that he could sense something is wrong with Prime Minister Zhou.
Shen Lingling's mind was spinning rapidly. She looked at Ji Xun and wondered, "What does Your Highness the Night King mean? Prime Minister Zhou's true identity? What's his true identity?" I have to say that Shen Lingling is extremely talented in acting, otherwise she would have been It was also impossible for Prime Minister Zhou to raise her as his aunt overnight.
Ji Xun looked at Shen Lingling calmly and felt puzzled when he saw that there was no wave or panic in her eyes and she didn't look like she was lying.
Is there no problem with Prime Minister Zhou? Or is there something wrong with Prime Minister Zhou but Shen Lingling doesn't know about it? Or maybe Shen Lingling knows the truth but can hide it so tightly?
"Shen Xiaoshi, don't forget who saved your life." Ji Xun turned his attention to Shen Xiaoshi, "Don't forget who wants to kill you. I can save you, and I can also drive you out of Xuan. The palace will leave you to fend for yourself."
When Shen Xiaoshi heard this, he was so frightened that he knelt down towards Ji Xun and King Xuan, banging his head twice, "Your Highness the Night King, Your Highness King Xuan, please be kind and take us in.'
After saying that, he hurriedly turned to Shen Lingling and said urgently, "Sister, Prime Minister Zhou is not a good person. If you really know something shameful about him, just tell him." Shen Lingling once said to him that she was holding Zhou in her hand. The Prime Minister has a big secret, and he actually hopes that Shen Lingling can choose to tell it, but since Shen Lingling denies it so firmly, what else can he do besides cooperate?
Maybe the sister is afraid that the trump card will be useless, so the Xuan King and the Night King will no longer protect them.
Shen Lingling also slid off the chair and knelt on the ground with her belly full, her eyes filled with tears and looking at a loss. "I, I do know some of Prime Minister Zhou's secrets, that's why he imprisoned me.'
"The previous aunt of Linghua Pavilion did not commit suicide, but was accidentally strangled to death by Zhou Chenxiang and pretended to be a suicide. Also, his twelfth aunt was kidnapped. Of course, the most important thing is me. I accidentally overheard His Highness the Crown Prince convincing Prime Minister Zhou to ambush His Highness the Night King and the Night Princess in Wuyin Mountain. It must be because I know too much, and Prime Minister Zhou was worried that I would reveal it to my family, so he was so cruel. The ground killed my whole family.'
Shen Lingling burst into tears. She deliberately avoided the important things and told some important things she knew, but she stubbornly concealed the huge secret that Prime Minister Zhou was Zhou Qian in disguise.
Ji Xun observed Shen Lingling. Although she spoke extremely sincerely, he still felt that this woman was not simple.
Just keep it for now. If she were a fox, her tail would show up sooner or later.
Thinking of this, Ji Xun lowered his voice and said to Prince Xuan: "Since his sister and brother are so persecuted by Prime Minister Zhou, they are quite pitiful, so let's keep them in Prince Xuan's Mansion for the time being.'
"Okay." Prince Xuan nodded and looked at Shen Lingling, "I leave no idlers in Prince Xuan's palace. Shen Xiaoshi, you continue to work in the stable. As for Shen Lingling, what do you know?'
"Folk women know how to embroider." Shen Lingling said hurriedly, "Although I'm about to give birth, I can do embroidery at any time.'
"Okay." King Xuan nodded and called the housekeeper to arrange for the two of them to go down.
"Brother, can you trust her words?" After Shen Lingling left, King Xuan looked at Ji Xun with a smile, "Should we send someone to keep an eye on them?"
"We must keep an eye on it." Ji Xun nodded, "If Prime Minister Zhou really has something in her hands, he will not let it go after finding out that she is missing. As long as he keeps an eye on it, he will definitely gain something."
"Okay, I will send someone to keep an eye on it." King Xuan nodded, was silent, and suddenly smiled, "Brother, did you feel that the prince's attitude suddenly changed and he started to show his kindness to us?"
"Well, I do feel it." Ji Xun's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly and the corners of his lips raised, "I don't know what they are planning, but this is not normal~~
"First find out Wei Xuanyuan, and then find out the details of Prime Minister Zhou. As long as they have problems, they will always reveal their flaws."
After saying these words, Ji Xun paused, opened the letter in his hand, looked at it a few times, and suddenly stood up.
"Since there is nothing going on in the capital, I will leave the capital for a while to pick up your imperial sister-in-law."
"If you go back and forth for at least a month, won't you miss the winter solstice to worship your ancestors? Didn't the emperor just say that the emperor's sister-in-law knows the art of disguise, which is very safe? Why do you take it?" King Xuan stood up.
"Wouldn't it be possible for you to go to the ancestor worship ceremony?" Ji Xun said, already stepping out of the door, "By the way, if there is heavy snow in the capital and the roads are blocked, your wife-in-law and I may live in Shenjia Village for a while. Maybe even during the Chinese New Year. “He especially misses the courtyard at the foot of the north mountain in Shenjia Village, and also misses Uncle Shen’s family.
Now that the prince has calmed down for the time being, he will take this opportunity to go there with Yu Yu to spend a few days of peace and comfort.
"Isn't it possible? There are so many things in the capital that have not been resolved, and my dear brother, you are the boss again?" King Xuan chased him out.
"I won't be a hands-off shopkeeper." Ji Xun has already left the house, "Don't you have a lot of things to do in the business? Yu Yu and I will go around to inspect the business situation in various cities. By the way, my father leaves it to you. ." After saying that, the man disappeared into the night.
