Chapter 1701 That's my father's man

Qu Xiao still didn't speak, his mood was obviously a little down.

Xue Yan said: "We can't promise you anything for the time being, but for the time being, we can go according to the plan you said, until the day when the deadline expires, you will show up again."

That is to say, let Xiahouzheng and Qu Chuo fight first, get rid of one and count as one, then both of them are coveted by Daling, and it will be a disaster to keep them sooner or later.

"Thank you." Qu Xiao thanked.

Xue Yan: "Others, we can only decide later."

Qu Xiao nodded. Of course he understood.

Finally, Jiang Yue said, "Did you want to come to Daling yourself?"

Qu Xiao nodded, still telling the truth: "Ever since I learned that Beicheng Kingdom will also send Daling as an ambassador, there have always been people in Dongxiao's officials discussing whether Dongxiao will also send Daling as an ambassador, and then, I Then I asked an official who was loyal to me behind the scenes to pretend to be the same as harming me, and took the initiative to play, and wanted me, the emperor, to also send an ambassador to express his sincerity. Xiahouzheng and my uncle were both eager for me to die, so naturally they all pushed the boat along the way. Agreed. They even used their eyes to warn me above the hall, telling me not to object, so I pretended to listen to their words and didn’t object. Then I personally sent the ambassador to the Great Ling and that’s how it was settled.”

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan had already guessed that Qu Xiao himself was going to send Da Ling himself, but they didn't expect Qu Xiao to use a trick, so that people couldn't suspect him, and they didn't even know that he was actually behind it. The manipulator may have just known that Qu Xiao was quite tricky. At this moment, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were not surprised when they heard these words.

Of course, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan could also feel the sincerity of Qu Xiao in front of them, but after all, this matter cannot be decided hastily.

Jiang Yue asked again: "There is one more thing, I hope you will answer us truthfully."

Qu Xiao: "What's the matter?"

Jiang Yue: "Do you know that there is a man named Sun Ye, a spy sent by your Dongxiao Kingdom to Beicheng Kingdom, and then this spy came to Daling with the Beicheng Mission, not only to steal the cannons and gunpowder production drawings , and also wanted to kill my husband."

"I know," said Qu Xiao, "that's my father's person. I heard my father mention it on the sickbed. My father was still in good health, and when he didn't have power, he sent some spies to other countries. Later, the power fell, and the spies sent out were also purged by all countries. This is the only one left. It happened to be known by Xiahouzheng again. Xiahouzheng used the name of my father to contact him. He always thought that my father was loyal to him. Emperor, my father was very kind to him. Later, when my father died, he thought that his allegiance was me, but he did not know that the person behind him had become Xiahou Zheng. I tried to send someone out to contact him more than once, but all failed. Xiahouzheng asked him to change his place. He thought it was me who was loyal to Xiahouzheng and was doing something for Xiahouzheng. Originally, I didn't know what happened in the future. Yes, but at the end of last year, Xia Houzheng committed a crime at the palace banquet, and he mentioned this matter, saying that if Sun Yi succeeded, he would have gunpowder and cannons, and he was still afraid of big lings, but it was a pity that Sun Yi did not succeed. , and asked him to send people to inquire from various sources, and finally found out in Beicheng, the place where Sun Yi was staying and the people he knew were checked, and Sun Yi was already dead."

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both nodded, indicating they understood.

They also thought it was Xiahou Zheng.
