"Your Highness?" I was startled: "Are you awake?"

"..."

He looked at me in silence. That excessive silence made me a little uneasy. Doesn't he like others touching his books? Thinking about this, I quickly put the book aside, but he didn't say anything, but slowly

Get up slowly and come towards me.

The space in the carriage was too small, so even a small movement was so conspicuous, and when he leaned towards me, his intimidating momentum gave me the illusion of being like a mountain.

At this moment, a burst of rapid horse hooves suddenly sounded from behind.

Although there are not many people passing by on the official road, there are people who are rushing from time to time. This kind of horse hoofbeat is not unfamiliar. It often sounds from behind and then slowly disappears in front.

But this time, the sound of horse hooves stopped in front of us.

"Your Highness, I have something important to report."

My heart was in my throat. Pei Yuanhao frowned slightly and raised his head: "Say."

"The cavalry was destroyed and the substitute died."

What?!

Could it be that all the cavalry teams before Pei Yuanhao - I was shocked and hurriedly raised my head to look at Pei Yuanhao, but he did not show any surprise. He just sneered and murmured: "She took action.

Quick."

He said this in a very low voice, but I was so close to him that I could hear every word clearly. He said to the outside: "Go down and receive the reward."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

After the man finished speaking, he rode away. Pei Yuanhao slowly lowered his head, looked at my pale face, and suddenly said: "Are you scared?"

"..." I nodded gently.

"Do you know who wants to harm me?"

"..." I bit my lower lip, and after a long time, I said softly: "Yes, Queen...?"

He raised his eyebrows, glanced at me as if he was surprised, and then smiled: "How did you tell?"

Actually, I didn't see anything before, I just always felt strange that the bowl of poisoned almond tea was accidentally exchanged for Yao Yingxue, which allowed Queen Yin to escape the disaster, but she didn't do anything from the beginning to the end.

He was not happy at all to have survived, but he was very unhappy and had no sympathy for me.

Moreover, the poisoning happened in Shangyang Palace, and the poisoners were all related to Pei Yuanhao, but the queen asked him to judge the case. This is not common sense at all, and it does not seem like a shrewd person like the queen would commit such a crime.

’s mistake.

It wasn't until the appearance of the Marrow Cleansing Flower that pointed all the clues to the south, and the person in charge of the trial couldn't escape the involvement, that I vaguely felt that the whole thing was actually a set-up, and Pei Yuanhao was introduced step by step, and the final result

The goal is Jiangnan.

The light of swords and shadows, Jiangnan surrounded by thugs!

However, judging from his previous performance, he only sent a substitute to follow the cavalry after leaving the palace gate, and used such a covert method to transform the carriage. Such a trick of changing the weather, obviously, he has already been prepared, otherwise - he will be attacked

I'm afraid it was him who died.

After hearing what I said, he smiled faintly: "You're not stupid."

It seems that my guess was not wrong.

At this moment, my heart suddenly palpitated——

Since he had known for a long time that this was the Queen's game, and he had also known that going south would be dangerous, why did he still want to get involved in this game?
