"Grandpa Huang, can you please invite Uncle Jin to attend the meeting together?"
As soon as these words came out.
Including King Kang, everyone's expressions became a little subtle.
Everyone looked at Zhou Jingxian who made the request in surprise. They didn't understand what it meant to ask King Jin to follow her without her own father at this time.
Zhou Qian thought of what King Jin had said before, and his doubts gradually deepened.
Could it be that he had misunderstood that Jingxian was not an innocent person, and that the tobacco seeds damaging the car on Guannai Road was indeed arranged by her?
In order to avoid arousing his suspicion, he deliberately did not ask King Kang to follow him, but asked King Jin to follow him. He specifically wanted to complain and pointed out that King Jin sent guards to spy on the news.
Little did he know that King Jin had already confessed to him.
After King Jin heard Zhou Jingxian's words, he also thought of filing a complaint. The corners of his mouth could not help but rise, and his heart became happy.
I'm really dozing off and I give you a pillow. I've seen stupid people, but I've never seen anyone as stupid as Zhou Jingxian.
Can't you tell the difference between big things and small things?
What the father is most interested in now is obviously to show off his achievements in front of everyone.
yes.
The credit for escorting the tobacco convoy was important, but could it outweigh the father's desire to show off?
Zhou Jingxian doesn't even have this kind of vision, so no wonder she can only do these drudgery tasks.
If you think about it this way, if Zhou An's death was really a plot, it must have been instigated by King Kang!
"Old Shi, what are you doing standing still? Follow me quickly."
Zhou Qian finally agreed to her request, but his tone revealed a hint of impatience, which was a warning.
"Father, it's completely dark. Please walk slower. You've been waiting for half an hour, and you won't wait for this half an hour."
King Jin also deliberately added fuel to the fire, implying that Zhou Jingxian was stalling for time.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Zhou Qian walked faster.
Even others noticed that His Majesty's mood had changed from sunny to cloudy. Looking at Zhou Jingxian who had caused His Majesty's mood change, his heart suddenly thumped.
King Kang was even more puzzled and extremely panicked.
What's going on today?
King Jin had a droopy face and looked unhappy.
Why is that girl Jingxian also looking gloomy?
What happened?
It's a pity that King Kang wanted to ask at this time. The three of them had already gone far away. He was completely powerless and could only pray secretly that Jingxian would not do anything that would make a big loss out of a small thing.
"Okay, let's just say it here..."
Phew!
Zhou Qian hasn't finished speaking yet.
Zhou Jingxian knelt firmly on the ground again.
This kneeling made Zhou Qian stunned.
Daxing's etiquette is not that strict, and he doesn't like it when he kneels down every now and then.
Therefore, no matter whether they are princes or grandsons, they can stand and speak as long as they can. If the kneeling just now was a return to life, then this kneeling does not seem to be a complaint or a request for credit, but rather...
"Grandpa Huang, my granddaughter is guilty, please be punished by Grandpa Huang!"
Before Zhou Qian could finish thinking about it, Zhou Jingxian spoke decisively.
After saying that, he turned his hands again and kowtowed to King Jin.
"Please also ask Uncle Jin to forgive my niece for her incompetence."
What?
King Jin was still thinking about what kind of hard-to-get trick Zhou Jingxian was playing by asking for punishment instead of taking credit. When he saw Zhou Jingxian suddenly begging him for forgiveness, he suddenly looked confused and looked at his father.
Father and son looked at each other, and they both saw a look of confusion on each other's faces.
Zhou Qian himself was worried about King Jin's anomaly, and now he saw Zhou Jingxian was doing the same. He didn't bother to guess what the two people were up to, and gave a low drink.
"Girl Jingxian, tell me what you have to say. If you are really guilty, Grandpa Huang will definitely consider your role in escorting tobacco seeds as a reward."
Just now we met.
He then noticed that Jingxian had lost a lot of weight, her face was as pale as a vegetable, her breathing was rapid and her steps were weak.
This kind of performance in martial arts practitioners must be caused by excessive consumption.
Coupled with the fact that the guards were keeping an eye on her, he knew that Jingxian had gone to great lengths to ensure that there would be no more accidents with the tobacco seeds... That's right.
"Girl Jingxian, are you worried that I will blame you for the case in Lai'an County? It's not your fault. If I want to blame it, I can only blame Su Rui for his poor arrangements and those killers who are so bold. It has nothing to do with you. "
"No, Grandpa Huang, this case is related to me because...because..."
Zhou Jingxian was a little excited and coughed a few times in a low voice. In the confused eyes of Zhou Qian and King Jin, she revealed everything without reservation.
"Because Zhou An was at the scene when the case in Lai'an County happened. I don't know whether he was deceived or kidnapped. But the situation was chaotic at that time. He shot arrows at me and Mr. Ning first. I thought He was the leader of the killers, so he shot him. Who would have thought that when Mr. Ning rushed into the sea of fire to save people, he would drag Ning Wuchang as his back and burn himself to death...cough cough cough!"
Mentioning this matter, Zhou Jingxian's nose seemed to still be reverberating with the burning smell of that night, and she coughed violently.
Zhou Qian and the King of Jin, on the other hand, were so shocked by her concise and concise narration that their jaws almost dropped.
Especially King Jin.
He only heard about the cause of Zhou An's death in Jiachu, which was that he was burned to death, but he didn't pay attention to the previous details.
After all, people are dead, and how they die is not important to him. He only needs to focus on this point to make his father suspect that Zhou An's death was jointly designed by Prince Kang and his daughter.
But he never expected that Zhou An's death would not be silent, but fall into King Kang's trick.
on the contrary.
Zhou Jingxian spoke eloquently and took the initiative to bring up the matter, which caught King Jin off guard and made him panic at the same time.
"Even if An'er is fooling around, there is no way he would ignore the great national destiny and go get together with those killers and raid the convoy escorted by officers and soldiers. He must have been taken hostage by those killers!"
King Jin shouted.
The plan to throw dirty water on Prince Kang and his daughter was disrupted. Zhou An's mistakes must be reduced and Zhou An's death cannot be allowed to affect the Jin Palace again!
"Is that so? Girl Jingxian?"
Zhou Qian's voice was low, and his eyes seemed to be filled with anger.
He finally understood why King Jin was so arrogant today and specifically proposed to establish the crown prince.
When a father learns of his son's death, he immediately chooses to escape guilt instead of confirming it. There is only one possibility.
That is, King Jin had heard the bad news long before this.
In other words, when King Jin kept this matter secret, when did he want to say it?
Perhaps he wanted to take advantage of his suspicions and successfully shake his mood when he awarded the reward to Jingxian, and then use Zhou An's death to say it was the conspiracy of Prince Kang and his daughter?
"Back to Grandpa Huang, there were many people present in this case from beginning to end, but I don't know much about Zhou An's follow-up situation. The case was finally handed over to Mr. Jiang from Jinling, but because I was worried about Zhou An's death, It would cause a bad reaction, so I didn’t bring Zhou An’s body back to the capital.”
Zhou Jingxian didn't want to conceal Zhou An's death out of conscience.
But equally, it was impossible for her to let Mr. Ning suffer in order to excuse Zhou An.
She has no control over the outcome of this case.
Zhou Qian, however, was shocked after hearing her statement. He took a deep breath and asked her urgently.
"You didn't bring Zhou An's body back to the capital? Then do you know whether Zhou An carries a token to prove his identity?"
