Chapter 46 Eavesdropping
Zhong Ning looked at its little head trembling and couldn't help but smile slightly, but then he thought of the information he had just received.
She roughly understood it!
This is because their master is dead and Princess Zhaoyang is about to return to the capital. They will take the opportunity to take action on the day Princess Zhaoyang returns, completely eliminate Princess Zhaoyang, and destroy the marriage between the two countries!
Zhong Ning: Chirp, chirp, chirp... (Do you know roughly how many people there are?)
The sparrows looked up: chirping, chirping, chirping... (There were so many people, filling up the whole room, and even in the yard)
Zhong Ning: ...chirp chirp chirp chirp (Okay, I know, thank you!)
There were people in the room, and there were guards in the yard, plus she sensed that there were secret guards outside the yard.
This means there must be at least thirty or forty people!
With her current martial arts skills, she can’t do it!
Zhong Ning thought about it and thought that maybe she needed to go to Princess Zhaoyang. If Princess Zhaoyang revealed her identity in order to find Xiao Yu, then the place where she was most likely to be now should be a heavily guarded place.
When she first entered the city, she heard that the private garden of Mr. Wang's family was suddenly heavily guarded and watertight.
It can be seen that the county magistrate Lu Youqian must have temporarily requisitioned the private garden of Mr. Wang's family in order to provide Princess Zhaoyang with a better residence.
The person who is being closely protected there must be Princess Zhaoyang.
After Zhong Ning figured out all the key points, he placed all the remaining millet in his palm on the wall of a house.
By the way, I added another handful, which was enough to feed the little sparrow.
Then he left quietly.
She needs to go to Princess Zhaoyang to find out the current situation of the court, and then see how to solve this matter?
Otherwise, how could she, alone, stop so many Northern Di spies?
That night, while it was late.
Zhong Ning, dressed in black, appeared outside the Wang family garden.
After walking around for a long time, he found a place with less tight defense, jumped over the wall, used his internal strength, and leaped along the top of the wall until he reached the house that was brightly lit in the dark.
Then he bent over and crawled on the roof of Princess Zhaoyang's bedroom, lifted two tiles, and listened attentively to the sounds inside!
"Princess, please stop crying. You cry every day and your eyes are red and swollen. If His Majesty knew, he would be so distressed!"
A comforting voice with a hint of heartache was heard, it should be from Princess Zhaoyang's personal maid.
Her appearance here seemed to be someone sent here to serve Princess Zhaoyang.
"Xiao Lang is missing and his whereabouts remain unknown. Whenever I think that Xiao Lang is most likely dead, I wish I could go with him!"
A charming and tearful voice sounded, it was Princess Zhaoyang.
"Your Highness!" another maid said, "The Imperial Concubine has fainted three times since she heard that Your Highness had escaped secretly..."
Princess Zhaoyang paused, "I am sorry to Mother! I will apologize to Mother when I return to the palace after visiting the Japanese Palace!"
"But Xiao Lang..." Princess Zhaoyang wanted to cry again.
A cold male voice suddenly rang out at this moment, "Your Highness, you may not know that the Xiao family has been secretly communicating with the Northern Di people and has been imprisoned by His Majesty!"
"What did you say? The Xiao family is loyal, and General Xiao is guarding the Beidi front. How could they do such a thing?" Princess Zhaoyang's voice suddenly increased, and her slightly swollen eyes widened!
"How could I have dared to do this without having solid evidence?" the man's voice rang out indifferently, a hint of coldness. "Your Highness, please worry about how you will explain this to His Majesty!"
"Qi Yu, you dare to threaten me? What can I say? As a princess, don't I even have the right to choose my own happiness?"
"Heh!" Qi Yu smiled coldly, his voice full of sarcasm.
"Your Highness, you are supported by the people of the world, so you naturally have the right to protect them. You disregard the safety of the people of the world for your own selfish desires. If the two countries go to war over this, Your Highness, how will you explain to the innocent people who died because of you?"
"Choose your own happiness? Is your happiness choosing a coward who will only elope with you when faced with a big situation?"
"Qi Yu, how dare you!" There was a hint of anger in his voice, and listening carefully, there was also panic and guilt!
The man named Qi Yu was about to reply, but suddenly stopped. His ears twitched slightly, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said lightly:
"That is all I have to say. I hope Your Highness will take note!"
"Oh, by the way, His Majesty has ordered that Your Highness the Princess should be escorted back to the capital in three days. For the sake of Your Highness's reputation, it is said that Princess Zhaoyang is bedridden and has never left the capital. Your Highness, please do not forget this!"
After saying that, Qi Yu left directly.
Princess Zhaoyang was left standing there, pointing a finger in anger in the direction Qi Yu had left, her voice filled with rage: "How dare you! Qi Yu, just wait! When I return to the palace, I will make sure that father punishes you for your disrespect!"
Hearing this, a nonchalant voice seemed to come from outside the door: "Whatever!"
Good guy.
Zhong Ning just felt very excited.
Dare to confront the princess in person!
This Qi Yu must be the most trusted sword under the emperor's command.
Otherwise he wouldn't dare treat the princess like this.
Unless Your Majesty doesn't dare to do anything to him.
Zhong Ning frowned and thought secretly, what did the sentence he just heard mean?
What does it mean that the Xiao family had an affair with Beidi and has been thrown into jail?
If she remembered correctly, the book mentioned that General Xiao was the commander guarding the Beidi front line. He was loyal to the country, the court, and the people.
It seemed that before Xiao Yu left, he buried a bomb in General Xiao's study, and only waited for him to leave Beijing before having someone detonate the bomb.
This directly led to the Xiao family being massacred and all nine clans being wiped out.
General Xiao was also stripped of his military power and died to atone for his crime!
Since then, the northern border of the Dayong Dynasty lacked a powerful general who could guard against foreign enemies, which gave the Northern Di an opportunity to invade again and again!
Wow, Zhong Ning couldn't help but sigh!
Xiao Yu is so cruel!
After all, I have raised you for more than ten years.
This is how you treat your adoptive parents and their family.
From this we can see that the cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness in the bones of the Northern Di people are innate and inherited!
She had to find a way to rescue General Xiao and his family.
The northern border needs General Xiao to guard it. We must not allow the Northern Di to successfully destroy the peace of Dayong's border and wantonly frame loyal officials.
What is known at present is that General Xiao and his family have been imprisoned, and the princess will return to Beijing in two days!
Thinking of this, Zhong Ning slowly put the tile back.
She needs to think carefully about how to use the limited information to achieve the best results.
It would be best if she could extricate herself from it without being involved in any consequences.
Zhong Ning retreated cautiously and was about to fly back along the same route, but she saw a man in a brocade robe standing diagonally behind her under the moonlight in the darkness, staring at her with cold eyes!
