C276 Do you think I'd believe you

Seeing Yan Shuo heavily nod his head, Yan Jue was no longer able to laugh.

Just like Yan Shuo, he naturally thought of the tenth day of August, the incident that happened in the Royal Tomb.

He raised his eyes to look at Yan Shuo, and said. "Are you suspecting that the person who had escaped from the imperial mausoleum that day was Tian Xin?"

Yan Shuo looked at Yan Jue, and after pondering for a moment, he nodded his head, "Mn, I have indeed suspected that before."

In an instant, both of them fell into a short period of silence.

If the person who barged into the Tomb of the Emperor was really Tian Xin, then the matter would be grave.

With what Old Nine thought, he would definitely not hand Tian Xin over so easily.

Once they competed with the laws of the country, the situation would only get worse.

After a while, Yan Jue raised his eyes, looked at Yan Shuo, and said: "This matter is no small matter, let's first ask Tian Xin about the heartlock, and not randomly guess."

"Does royal uncle think that we should let the Ninth Imperial Uncle and the Ninth Aunt know about this?"

Yan Shuo's face still showed some hesitation.

Yan Jue saw the worry in Yan Shuo's eyes and raised his eyebrows. "What is the Emperor worried about?"

Yan Shuo also did not hide it, and said: "Royal Uncle, actually … Have you ever doubted the identity of the Ninth Aunt? "

Yan Jue's expression changed slightly, but it was also in that split-second that he regained his calm, "Why do you ask?"

Yan Shuo sighed, and said: "To be honest, we have already mentioned this to Ninth Imperial Uncle, his attitude is very clear. Whether or not Ninth Aunt is Liu Tian Xin, he will definitely protect her to the end."

He looked at Yan Jue, his gaze becoming a little more serious. Eighth Uncle, you and I both know about the Ninth Imperial Uncle, if he is determined to protect the entire Ninth Aunt, he will definitely not care about the consequences. "

Yan Jue's expression became more and more solemn. With his understanding of Ninth Brother, if he was determined to protect Tian Xin, at that time, even if she met with the Kaiser in battle, he would not hesitate at all.

"So, we are thinking, if the heartlock appeared in the Royal Tomb for some other reason, then it's fine. But if the Ninth Aunt is really the People from the Divine Artefact Hall, then wouldn't it be like beating the grass and scaring the snake if we bring the heartlock to her?"

"Nope."

On this point, Yan Jue answered very straightforwardly, "Tian Xin may indeed be the person who escaped from the Mausoleum of Books that day. However, she is not related to Shen Ji Hall at all."

"Why is royal uncle so sure?"

"Has the Emperor forgotten about his face?"

Yan Jue looked at him and continued: "People from the Divine Artefact Hall, you have wanted to take her away multiple times, and even arranged for that servant girl called Xiao Yi to be your spy. If it wasn't for Tian Xin obstructing you, I'm afraid she would have already been taken away by People from the Divine Artefact Hall."

His words, caused the expression on Yan Shuo's face to soften a little.

"Your majesty, don't forget, Tian Xin has suffered a lot of injuries due to this."

Hearing Yan Jue's analysis, Yan Shuo nodded in agreement, "On this matter, we are very grateful to the Ninth Aunt, but … "Her identity …"

He wanted to say something but hesitated before continuing, "Even if she isn't People from the Divine Artefact Hall, her identity shouldn't be simple. We have a feeling that … She is not like the real Liu Tian Xin. "

This point, Yan Jue agreed, he thought, maybe, Ol'ninth had also been suspicious for a long time.

After pondering for a moment, Yan Jue said: "I still feel that it's best to find an opportunity to ask Tian Xin about this matter if it's a misunderstanding. If it's not, we might be able to ask about other things."

Hearing Yan Jue's words, Yan Shuo hesitated for a moment, then nodded his head, "That's fine, when we return to the palace tomorrow, we will find a chance to ask her."

After the uncle and nephew were done discussing, Yan Jue suddenly raised his head and looked at Yan Shuo, saying, "Does the emperor feel that your Ninth Aunt is a bad guy?"

Yan Shuo shook his head and laughed bitterly, "If we felt that she was a bad person, we wouldn't be this distressed."

He lowered his eyebrows, looked at the heartlock in his hand, and said: "But sometimes, there are not only good people and bad people in this world. Even if it's a good person who violates the laws of the country, he will also be punished."

Opposite the palace that Yan Shuo resided in was Yan Yuan's and Liu Ruo Qing's room.

Ever since he came to the imperial mausoleum, Liu Ruo Qing had been feeling uneasy in his heart.

She remembered that day when they sneaked into the Royal Tomb. Because of those foolish Shen Ji Hall s, she had been heavily injured and had escaped due to them triggering the mechanism within the Royal Tomb.

At that time, Yan Yuan had helped her hide it, and she was also afraid that Yan Yuan would target his.

Similarly, she had forgotten about the heartlock.

When she came to the Royal Tomb today, she remembered that she left the heartlock there in a hurry.

If someone were to ask her about it during the ancestral worship, how would she reply?

Back then, she did not know if she could easily deceive Yan Yuan with her random reason.

But now, if she still used that reason, would Kaiser and the other ministers believe her?

Liu Ruo Qing was still a little unsure in her heart. Fortunately, this day had passed, and there didn't seem to be anything strange going on, so the heartlock shouldn't have been discovered, right?

No matter what, she had to find a chance to retrieve the heartlock. If it fell into Kaiser's hands, it would be troublesome.

Yan Yuan saw that she was staring at the table in a daze with all sorts of uneasy emotions lingering on his face. He originally wanted to ignore his, but his heart was unconsciously affected by her emotions.

"What are you worried about?"

His tone was stiff, but it was filled with concern.

Liu Ruo Qing suddenly raised her head, and looked at the probing look in his eyes, and her heart trembled.

He was hesitating on whether to tell Yan Yuan or not.

After thinking for a moment, he gave up. "Nothing."

Afraid that Yan Yuan would not give up, she got up and walked towards the bedside, "I'm a little tired, I'll go to sleep first."

The more she tried to escape, the more Yan Yuan felt that she was hiding something from him. His cold eyes instantly froze.

Gazing out the window, he recalled the night of the tenth day of August when she trespassed into the Royal Tomb, and his heart trembled.

That day, the reason she told him was not completely believed by him. It was just that he did not dare to think deeply about it.

After that, so many things had happened that he had no choice but to delve deeper into his thoughts for food.

Thinking like this, his gaze turned to Liu Ruo Qing, and said in a deep voice, "Was there anything else that was hidden from me when you barged into the imperial mausoleum that night?"

Liu Ruo Qing was extremely frightened by Yan Yuan's words. She immediately sat up on the bed and looked at her.

"I... Didn't I make things clear to you that day? "

Her eyes flickered a little as she subconsciously avoided the sharp glint in Yan Yuan's eyes.

Yan Yuan walked in front of her with large strides, and pinched her shoulder with a bit of force.

"Do you really think I would believe it?"

His eyes looked at Liu Ruo Qing fiercely, and the sharp light in his eyes made Liu Ruo Qing's heart tremble.
