Chapter 397: Ancient Dimension, Cannon Fodder Female Matching Whose Marriage Was Snatched Away by Co
After saying that, he hurried out of the room and trotted all the way to find the shopkeeper.
After Xiao Shunzi left, the room suddenly fell into silence.
Even though there was a lot of traffic outside the window, it was as if not even a sound could be heard inside the room because someone was guarding it.
Xiao Jingyuan raised his hand slightly and snapped his fingers lightly in the air. The crisp sound seemed particularly abrupt in the quiet environment.
After the sound, a man with cold eyes and a ghostly figure knelt in front of Xiao Jingyuan.
Xiao Jingyuan's gaze was still fixed on the direction where Miaomiao had left, his voice low and cold.
"Tell me everything Miss Shi did this morning."
There was an unquestionable majesty in his tone, as if he must know everything related to Miaomiao.
The shadowy man bowed slightly, then began to report in a calm tone.
When mentioning that Miaomiao had people keeping a close eye on Prince Zhao and her cousin, Xiao Jingyuan's brows instantly furrowed tightly, and a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes.
A strong feeling of displeasure welled up in his heart. How could a hypocritical man deserve Miaomiao's attention?
"Prince Zhao..."
He squeezed out these words from between his teeth, with a dangerous glint in his eyes.
"What has he been doing recently? Briefly tell me about what happened between him and the other woman in the Shi family."
Xiao Jingyuan has been putting some pressure on Prince Zhao in the court these days, but now he knows that it is not the right time. If he lets Prince Zhao die now, Miaomiao's identity will become the ex-fiancée of Prince Zhao's son.
This will affect Miaomiao, unless she belongs to him...
And, in an absolutely lucky way...
As much as he loved Miaomiao, he hated King Zhao's family and that woman so much that he wished they would be torn to pieces.
Perhaps sensing the emperor's wrath, even the usually expressionless secret guards trembled unconsciously.
Then, he began to report to Xiao Jingyuan everything that had happened in Prince Zhao's Mansion in recent days.
Not only did Xiao Yichen accept Shi Shu's "comfort" on the day the imperial edict to cancel the engagement was issued, but he also persuaded Shi Shu not to change her surname and almost had an affair with her.
He also said that the relationship between the two had progressed rapidly in recent days and they were already having an affair without any intermediary.
There was also the quarrel between Prince Zhao and Xiao Yichen today, and what they said.
Xiao Jingyuan finally couldn't help but snorted coldly. The sound cut through the silent space like an ice knife, making his subordinates shudder.
"Damn it!!"
Although he knew this would happen, Xiao Jingyuan was still amused by the other party's shamelessness.
He even dared to set his sights on his daughter Miaomiao. He was bullying Miaomiao because she had no one behind her.
"Go check and see if they are still there?
Forget it, no matter whether they are there or not, I will find a way to let the secret guards send them back to that place. Since the place was chosen by Xiao Yichen, let him suffer the consequences.
Pay attention, make this a bigger deal, don't let that old bastard King Zhao suppress it so easily, okay?"
The secret guards are closely connected to the emperor's will, like invisible tentacles extended by the emperor.
They could even perfectly understand the emperor's intentions without the emperor saying much, not to mention that now, what a certain prince did directly touched the emperor's reverse scale.
After the secret guards left, Xiao Jingyuan returned to the palace...
In the imperial study, thinking about this matter again, Xiao Jingyuan's eyes flashed with a complex emotion.
He knew very well that Miaomiao's actions were merely an instinctive defense, and he originally wanted Miaomiao to kill the enemy with her own hands.
However, in her pure inner world, she was unaware of the grudges and hatreds of her previous life, so how could she do these things without feeling guilty?
Xiao Jingyuan couldn't help but recall the words he had heard in his previous life. At the time, he felt that they were insignificant and full of regret, but now he felt a heart-wrenching pain...
"The original legitimate daughter of the Shi family died more than ten years ago. Shi Shu is the cousin of the legitimate daughter of the Shi family. She just took over the position."
"King Zhao discovered that the daughter of the Shi family did not want to marry, so he simply came on the wedding day and replaced her with someone else..."
When Xiao Jingyuan thought about this, he somehow suddenly thought of the dream in which he was trapped on the day of his rebirth.
That dream that had repeated itself a hundred times: a woman in a red wedding gown whose face couldn't be seen, vomiting blood and dying on her wedding day...
He seemed to see Miaomiao's despair and helplessness at that time...
Whenever I think of the scene in my previous dream, which I thought was just normal, now it hurts my heart.
Xiao Jingyuan only felt as if there was a surging force stirring wildly in his chest, and the severe pain was like a sharp steel knife, cutting his heart and lungs wantonly.
He tried his best to suppress it, but the pain was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, becoming more and more intense. Finally, he could no longer bear it, and a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out, splashing a shocking red stain on the ground.
"His Majesty!!"
When Xiao Shunzi saw Xiao Jingyuan spitting blood from his mouth, he was so scared that his face turned pale and he rushed over in a few steps.
However, when he got closer, he was shocked to find that although His Majesty was spitting blood, there was no sign of dejection on his face. Instead, his eyes were like swords, burning with an extremely cruel emotion.
"Your Majesty, you..."
Xiao Shunzi asked in a trembling voice.
Xiao Jingyuan slightly raised his bloodless hand and waved it without question, interrupting Xiao Shunzi's surprised question.
"Someone, call the doctor immediately."
......
Miaomiao didn't know what was happening in the palace.
After she returned to Shi's house, she finally couldn't resist and took a nap. When she woke up, it was still light outside. She was originally planning to continue looking at the account book at home, but was disturbed by Cuihuan.
"Miss, this is bad, my cousin was caught in the Wenxuan Building.
She was having an affair with Prince Zhao at the time..."
Miaomiao was a little confused when she heard this. How could the retribution come so quickly?
