However, Shang Zhiqing's move was extremely risky. From the position of the original owner, Shang Zhiqing was the person who killed her. But from her perspective, if not for Shang Zhiqing's move, he probably would not have been able to become Xie Qingrong.
When he thought of this, the fury in Xie Qingrong's heart towards Shang Zhiqing had already slowly dissipated, and he retracted the hand that was grabbing onto Shang Zhiqing's throat.
"Elder sister, what do you mean by this?" Shang Zhiqing asked even though she already knew the answer.
Xie Qingrong squinted his eyes, covering the dangerous glint that flashed past his eyes, "For now, I will trust you one more time. I hope there won't be a next time for something like this. "
"Alright." Shang Zhiqing promised solemnly.
Although Xie Qingrong believed what she said, in her heart, she was still skeptical about what Shang Zhiqing was saying.
"I heard that big sister has already recognized father, and that big sister's name is already carved on the Ji Family's family tree. I wonder when big sister's name will be carved on the Shang family's family tree?" Shang Zhiqing smiled slightly.
Xie Qingrong did not bother with Shang Zhiqing's teasing. With a serious look on her face, she asked: "Emotions, tell me honestly, is mother dead or not?"
Hearing this, the smile on Shang Zhiqing's face dimmed, and slowly disappeared.
The atmosphere was a little awkward and tense at the moment. Shang Zhiqing remained silent for a long while, shook her head and said: "Mother isn't dead, but Mother is better off dead than alive."
Xie Qingrong frowned, and asked: "What happened? Wasn't mother a descendant of the Shang family? Why would it be better to die than to live? "
Shang Zhiqing pursed her lips, hesitation flickering in her eyes. Evidently, she didn't know how to tell Xie Qingrong the truth behind this matter.
"My mother made a mistake that year, so she was punished by the elders of the clan. It has been many years. After all these years, the only person my mother had ever cared about was my sister. "Therefore, that day, I appeared in the general's manor. It was only when I saw my elder sister's cowardly appearance that I felt a little resentful in my heart. That's why …"
In the end, Shang Zhiqing did not explain what mistake Shang Huaiyue committed or what punishment she received.
This matter seemed to be extremely important, and Shang Zhiqing was afraid that she would not be able to bear the responsibility of telling the truth.
This was why he was hiding something.
Xie Qingrong patted Shang Zhiqing's shoulder to comfort him, and did not continue the line of questioning.
Only after a long while did Shang Zhiqing regain her senses, as if she had just recovered from her slightly sunken expression. She said: "Other than that, I have a second matter to tell Big Sis in the Mo Bei. This is a very serious matter, if we use pigeons to send a message, I'm afraid it will be easily intercepted. "
Xie Qingrong frowned and asked: "What is it? You are actually required to come here personally from the Yue Country? "
"I wonder if elder sister and brother-in-law remembered the incident back in the capital when the Ye Family was wiped out, but Ye Jiaze was nowhere to be seen." Shang Zhiqing said solemnly.
Xuanyuan Chen raised his head and glanced at Shang Zhiqing in surprise, as if he was wondering how Shang Zhiqing knew about this.
This was strange, Ye Wenfu seemed to have known that the Ye Family would be annihilated, hence he had long since exiled Ye Jiaze out.
Could it be that he was hoping for Ye Jiaze to make a comeback?
"Yes. That day at the execution grounds, besides Ye Ningyu, who had fled with Xuanyuan Jing, there were still no traces of the Ye Family's direct disciples or even Ye Jiaze. Chen Feng and I suspect that Ye Jiaze is hiding in a unknown place, hoping to make a comeback. " Xie Qingrong frowned, and said coldly.
The people of profound mechanism and Tianyi Pavilion did not see any trace of Ye Jiaze, and it was likely that there were other forces behind Ye Jiaze that were helping him to escape, escaping out of their sight.
"Elder sister, do you know where I found Ye Jiaze's figure?" Shang Zhiqing deliberately mystified.
"Where?" Xie Qingrong asked.
"He's in Jiang Prefecture." Shang Zhiqing confidently told her the place she was at, and then carefully analyzed it with Xie Qingrong.
"Everyone in the world knows that the Heavenly Sage and Wu Huan will have a battle. Chu Country was a wolf's ambition. If the Heavenly Sage and Wu Huan were to start a fight, the Army of Chu would definitely step in. I can't guarantee that Yue Country won't be able to participate in it. But I can guarantee that Qi Yun and Jun Changyou have no intention to fight at all. "
"Therefore, I have been scouting the borders of various countries for unknown factors and dangers. The moment there is any movement, the information will be handed to me."
"Other than the Misty Mountain, the Jiang Prefecture is the city at the border between the Chu Country and the Heavenly Sage. Ye Jiaze tried to control the Jiang Prefecture and collude with the Chu Country. At that time, there will be an external collusion, and the Heavenly Sage will probably face the enemy from the back. "
The veins in his hand were faintly discernable, as if just a little more strength would be able to completely crush the wine cup.
After a moment of silence, he said coldly: "Ye Wenfu is truly worthy of being the owner of the Ye Family. The current Prefecture Chief of the Jiang Prefecture is Jiang Yizhou. Although he is extremely intelligent, he is headstrong and cannot bear the big responsibility. "
"Why don't we secretly send someone to Jiang Prefecture to kill Ye Jiaze …" Xie Qingrong did not finish speaking, but the three people present already understood the meaning of Xie Qingrong's words.
If Ye Jiaze did not get rid of it, there would be endless trouble in the future. However, Ye Jiaze's martial arts strategy was far superior to ordinary people, who could be sent to be absolutely safe?
Before waiting for Xie Qingrong to choose the names of the people that appeared in her mind, Ji Rufeng immediately stopped him: "You must not act rashly. If Ye Jiaze is really colluding with the Chu Country, Crown Prince Gongsun will definitely be able to think of a plan that Crown Prince Xuanyuan and the Crown Princess can come up with. "
"I'm afraid that Ye Jiaze has already built a steel wall beside him. If it was one of them, then it doesn't matter. Sending people out to get rid of Ye Jiaze still requires a long term consideration. "
Xuanyuan Chen laughed, and said something unrelated: "Why are Ji gongzi helping A Rong and me like this? Although A Rong is from the Ji Family, but with the Ji gongzi's personality, she does not seem to be someone who can easily lend a hand. "
Throughout the journey, he and Xie Qingrong had encountered many difficult things and Ji Rufeng had always been generous and generous, not being stingy at all. He could not help but be a little suspicious of Ji Rufeng's real intentions.
However, Ji Rufeng did not put Xuanyuan Chen's suspicions into his eyes. He smiled slightly, and laughed in an extremely free and easy manner. Think of it as me being happy. When I am happy, I can do whatever I want. How can there be so many reasons?
"Hahahaha." Xuanyuan Chen suddenly laughed out loud and looked towards Xuanyuan Chen with some suspicion. It was the first time she had ever seen Xuanyuan Chen look this happy.
Xuanyuan Chen twiddled his fingers, a tinge of admiration appeared in his heart for Ji Rufeng's free and easy personality and magnanimity. Towards Ji Rufeng's intentions and goals, no matter how much doubts he had, it seemed to be nothing.
