When Lin Xiao pulled himself out of the fragrant nephrite, the night had already fallen outside.
He had actually stayed in the palace for an entire afternoon. Looking at Beauty Hu's tired face, Lin Xiao softly reminded her to rest well before leaving the palace.
When he returned to the Purple Orchid Pavilion, the Startling Salamander looked at him suspiciously and circled him a few times. Its nose twitched slightly.
"Young Master, you have a strange fragrance on your body.”
"Uh ~ Maybe it's the incense in Beauty Hu's palace. It's quite choking."
"Hmm, is that so? Young Master, this isn't the smell of incense. This is the smell of a woman.”
Looking at the Startling Salamander's suspicious eyes, Lin Xiao could not help but break out in a cold sweat. Was a woman's intuition so accurate?
"Hehehe ~ Men are like cheating cats. They can't control their hands.”
Yan Lingji, who was sitting on the bed, seemed to be watching the show and didn't mind the matter getting bigger. She kept fanning the flames, making the Startling Salamander's eyes become more and more suspicious.
"Did anything happen this afternoon?”
Lin Xiao immediately changed the topic. Startling Salamander thought for a moment and said,"This afternoon, Miss Zi Nu came to look for Young Master.”
"Oh? Violet Girl came to find me? Did she say anything?"
"Yes, Miss Zi Nu said that she received a piece of news that someone has gathered a group of Bai Yue survivors outside Xinzheng City.”
This piece of news caused Lin Xiao to sink into deep thought. At this moment, a group of Bai Yue survivors had arrived. Who did this? Why?
Han Fei? It shouldn't be. If it was Han Fei's plan, Zi Lanxuan should have known.
Could it be Ji Wuye? However, Ji Wuye was the one who started the incident with the remnants of the Yue in the city. It was obvious that this person would not gather the remnants of the Yue, and he had always advocated eliminating the roots.
King Han, that was even more impossible. King Han was narrow-minded and suspicious by nature. The Hundred Yue Land was like his bottom line. It was absolutely impossible for him to touch it.
Han Wangan's attitude towards the Yue should be the same as Ji Wuye's. He should kill them as soon as possible.
Zhang Kai Di, this old fellow, had always been unclear and belonged to a neutral force that wouldn't get into trouble. Thus, there was only one person's force.
Fourth Young Master, Han Yu. This person seemed gentle and modest, but in fact, he was very scheming. This matter might have come from his original intention, or it might have been another scheme. No matter what, what the court did in the struggle for power was beneficial to him.
"You guys wait for me here. I'm going to see Miss Violet.”
After Lin Xiao instructed the two of them, he pushed open the door and walked out towards the front courtyard. When he went upstairs, he happened to meet Nongyu.
After asking for Violet Girl's location, Lin Xiao went all the way to the room on the second floor.
At this moment, Violet Girl, Wei Zhuang, and Zhang Liang were discussing something.
"You're finally back."
Seeing Lin Zhan push the door open and enter, Violet Girl stood up from her seat. Without Lin Xiao, the few of them seemed to have lost their backbone. They each insisted on their own words and did not have any conclusion.
"I've already heard about it from Ah Ni. What do you think?"
"Zifang and I think it's just Ji Wuye's plan.”
Violet Maiden did not mention Wei Zhuang's name. It seemed that Wei Zhuang's opinion was different from theirs.
Lin Xiao looked at the latter. Wei Zhuang's face was expressionless. When he felt Lin Xiao's questioning gaze, he hesitated for a moment and spoke.
"Ji Wuye wouldn't do that. He's just looking for trouble. Although he's suspected by King Han, they're still on the same side.”
"What do you think?"
Facing Violet Maiden's questioning gaze, Lin Xiao slowly nodded his head, agreeing with Wei Zhuang's words.
He had already analyzed this point before he came. It couldn't be Ji Wuye, King Han, or Zhang Kedi.
"Why?"
Seeing Lin Xiao's denial, Zhang Liang and Purple Girl were both puzzled. Logically speaking, this was not a good thing for Han Fei. Only Ji Wuye could have come up with such a plan to harm him.
"Ji Wuye and Han Wangan are jackals of the same feather. Their attitude towards the Bai Yue is to eliminate the weeds and eliminate the roots because the Bai Yue has hidden too many secrets. So if it was them, we wouldn't have been able to see this group of Bai Yue survivors.”
"Then who could it be?"
"Could it be that Fourth Young Master Han Yu?”
Lin Xiao smiled and nodded in response to Zhang Liang's hesitant words, confirming his guess.
"Fourth Young Master's attitude towards Brother Han has always been wavering. Where did you come from this time?”
" No matter what the purpose is, the final result is in his favor. But this time, it seems that he just wants Han Fei to hold this hot potato.”
"Then what should we do next?"
"Just prepare for tomorrow. That's the most important thing. Besides, Zifang must have been warned by her grandfather not to get too close to Han Fei recently.”
Hearing Lin Xiao's words, Zhang Liang nodded silently. For a neutral force like Zhang Kedi, it was better to avoid contact with Han Fei when he had become a sensitive figure.
"We don't need to care about the matter of the Yue survivors. We will have an answer to these matters tomorrow.”
After stabilizing everyone's emotions with a few words, Lin Xiao returned to his room again. He was ready to start planning his own matters.
That was because he had received a piece of news in Beauty Hu's palace today. That was that an envoy from the Qin country had recently returned to the Han country.
I'm so hardworking, and there aren't many good authors who take the initiative to add more. Thank you for your support.
