Chapter 277 Xiao Jinxing leaves Song Yanqing behind
Xiao Jinxing took a sip of hot tea, looked at Xie Ruotong and said calmly, "It's expected."
Xie Ruotong blamed himself, "It was me who thought I could find the clues of the King of Chu in him, which delayed the time."
"It is not easy to investigate Xiao Jinshen. If he was so easy to deal with, he would not be able to live to this day." Xiao Jinxing seemed to comfort Xie Ruotong.
Xie Ruotong remained respectful.
"Today I asked you to come. In addition to asking you to investigate Xiao Jinshen's whereabouts, I would also tell you about my king's treatment of Song Yanqing." Xiao Jinxing said the topic.
"yes."
"As Xiao Jinshen's confidant, Song Yanqing should have been beheaded and displayed to the public with other people involved in the plot of rebellion, but Song Yanqing is an indispensable talent. I was impressed by him before, but he followed Xiao Jinshen, so I could not force it." Xiao Jinxing said, "But now, Xiao Jinshen has left the palace. As a free man, Song Yanqing intends to keep Song Yanqing by his side."
"Your Majesty," Xie Ruotong said bluntly, "Song Yanqing's loyalty to the King of Chu exceeded the prince's belief and beyond my imagination. I knew that Song Yanqing could tolerate his own torture, so I used his favorite woman Xie Ruilin to threaten him to tell the whereabouts of the King of Chu. As a result, Song Yanqing did not betray the King of Chu until the moment Xie Ruilin died. I felt that such a person could not be loyal to King Chen anymore."
"What I value is Song Yanqing's loyalty." Xiao Jinxing said it clearly.
Xie Ruotong was a little surprised.
"Do you know how many treason ministers I have captured this time?" Xiao Jinxing asked.
"I don't know."
"More than fifty ministers."
Xie Ruotong was still a little surprised when she heard this number.
More than half of the people in the imperial court were bribed by the King of Chu.
Under such a situation, King Chen can still make a comeback and turn the tables... King Chen's ability is indeed immeasurable.
"All of these fifty people are greedy for life and fear of death." Xiao Jinxing said, "Only, Song Yanqing you interrogated."
"I just think that Song Yanqing may not be loyal to King Chen." Xie Ruotong said his reasons, "I even think that he is not sincere, but stupid."
"Great wisdom is like foolishness." Xiao Jinxing praised.
Xiao Jinxing was so sure of Song Yanqing, so Xie Ruotong couldn't say anything else.
"Of course, there is no need for me to win over a minister who is plotting against rebels. It's just that the situation in the court is unclear and the talent loss is serious. Now I need someone with ability to assist me in managing the affairs of the court and the country!" Xiao Jinxing explained the reason.
"I understand." Xie Ruotong respectfully.
Now, because the King of Chu was plotting a rebellion, a large number of ministers were killed.
Now that King Chen is in power, he naturally has to make up for these vacancy.
To put it bluntly, King Chen is now in the stage of seeking talent, so he can help Song Yanqing escape.
"Actually, I know where Xiao Jinshen has gone. If I have not been able to track down Xiao Jinshen's whereabouts these days, I will no longer have to waste my energy." Xiao Jinxing ordered, "Just arrange for the people below to do something about chasing Xiao Jinshen."
"yes."
"Now I hope that you can help me and convince Song Yanqing to serve me." Xiao Jinxing was straightforward.
Xie Ruotong looked at Xiao Jinxing with her eyes.
After a long time, I didn't receive the order.
"Is there any difficulties?" Xiao Jinxing raised his eyebrows.
"I am incompetent and cannot complete the prince's order. I am more willing to investigate the whereabouts of the King of Chu." Xie Ruotong said bluntly.
"I think you know Song Yanqing better."
"But I killed the woman he loved the most, and he must have hated me to the core now. If the prince really wants to use Song Yanqing, I suggest you find other eloquent people to convince me. I am really powerless." Xie Ruotong refused.
Xiao Jinxing was silent for a while.
Xie Ruotong never let go.
"Since it's very difficult for you, I won't make things difficult for you." Xiao Jinxing said, "Then I'll order you to continue to investigate Xiao Jinshen's whereabouts."
"I obey the order."
"In addition, the situation in the court is stable, so I will definitely go to the border. At that time, you will naturally follow me."
"I obey the order." Xie Ruotong had no room for resistance, but she wanted to ask, "Will the princess leave together?"
"Natural." Xiao Jinxing was determined.
"Yes." Xie Ruotong had no more worries.
"Get out."
"Prince, I have another request." Xie Ruotong respectfully.
"you say."
"The death of my grandmother was not a natural death, but was framed. Now I have found out, who was framed by my grandmother? I beg the prince to bring these people to justice."
"Who are there?" Xiao Jinxing asked.
"King of Chu, Xie Ruilin, Xie Ruiyao, my mother Shen, and my fourth brother Xie Zhongwen. Now Xie Ruilin and Xie Ruiyao are dead, and the whereabouts of the King of Chu are unknown, they are my mother and my fourth brother."
"The emperor's grandmother is the eldest princess of the Great Xuan Kingdom. She has a noble status and is naturally framed. If someone is framed, she should be severely punished. I will allow you to give the most serious punishment to everyone who frames the eldest princess." Xiao Jinxing agreed immediately.
"Thank you, King Chen." Xie Ruotong stipulated that he would thank you.
"Xie Ruotong." Xiao Jinxing said, "I am not only eager for Song Yanqing's talent, but also for you."
Xie Ruotong looked at Xiao Jinxing, "I thank the prince for his kindness to me."
"Get out."
"yes."
Xie Ruotong left Xiao Jinxing's bedroom.
She walked out.
I saw Ye Qichi in front of me.
She hurried forward, "Princess."
"Xiao Jinxing called you here?"
"yes."
"Have Xiao Jinshen found out?"
"No." Xie Ruotong explained, "The prince asked me to help him persuade Song Yanqing to be loyal to him."
"Can you have killed him?" Ye Qichi smiled.
"Almost." Xie Ruotong said in a vague way.
But it is not difficult to imagine how terrible Song Yanqing is now.
"Then did you agree?"
"I don't have enough ability, so I naturally don't want to disappoint the prince."
So I refused.
Want to come.
Xie Ruotong was interrogating Song Yanqing, the process would not be too beautiful.
"Are you leaving now?" Ye Qichi asked.
"Yes. The prince also asked me to investigate the whereabouts of the King of Chu."
"He didn't tell you where King Chen might have gone?" Ye Qichi raised his eyebrows.
She had discussed where Xiao Jinxing had gone long ago.
The two naturally reached a consensus point of view.
"The prince didn't say it clearly."
"Okay, you can check it more if you have nothing to do." Ye Qichi didn't say much.
"Then I sued."
"Wait." Ye Qichi called her, "I want to meet Song Yanqing."
Xie Ruotong was surprised.
"Didn't Xiao Jinxing go to buy Song Yanqing's hearts? I'll try it."
"yes."
"Wait for me, I'll go and say something to Xiao Jinxing."
"yes."
Ye Qichi did not delay and walked into the bedroom directly.
-------------------
Therefore, Song Yanqing will not die for the time being.
But don't worry, it won't be a good time.
after all.
Heart-wrenching is more uncomfortable than body-wrenching.
