Jiang Chiyu's thoughts were pulled far away, and she didn't hear what the man beside her was saying.

Just stared blankly at the piece of wood.

"Huh? Fish."

"What's wrong?" Jiang Chiyu was startled and looked at Huo Jin again, "Have you found the counterfeit?"

Huo Jin had a troubled look on his face, shook his head, and then there was a long silence. The impostor seemed to have disappeared from the world.

"The emperor plans to canonize Yu Jiaojiao as queen. We will all attend the canonization ceremony tomorrow."

Huo Jin mentioned something, but Jiang Chiyu didn't take it to heart. According to the Yu family's layout, Yu Jiaojiao should have become the queen.

It was just a smooth move by Prime Minister Yu.

into the night.

Before the lights of the Governor's Mansion were extinguished, a sedan hurriedly entered the door. The person who came was very mysterious, wearing a cloak.

Jiang Chiyu smelled the incense in Yongshou Palace and knew who came to Huo Jin in the middle of the night, but she didn't take it seriously.

In the room, Yu Zhizhi was very excited: "This is the evidence. The Ai family has not told you. Why can Yu Jiaojiao still be in charge of the middle palace? Tell me?"

Yu Zhizhi looked at Huo Jin doubtfully, knowing what happened last night and knowing that the man in front of him was real.

But not as sharp as before.

"It's because he has love in his heart that the Governor has lost his way, right?" Yu Zhizhi's voice was a little dull, "You don't even want to avenge your family's destruction?"

"Where are the letters?" Huo Jin asked indifferently, asking Yu Zhizhi for those letters.

Yu Xiangchu wrote an expose letter, which also contained evidence of his collaboration with the enemy. Only by mastering these can we completely overthrow Prime Minister Yu.

Yu Zhizhi paused for a moment: "In the past, when we had the best relationship, I never took risks for you. A Jin, do you know why?"

"?"

The man didn't speak, but Yu Zhizhi smiled: "You always seem like a person without warmth. You don't care about my emotions, and you don't consider whether those are what I think."

Yu Zhizhi said that she was naive in the past and thought that in this wasted time, they were two poor people who drew warmth from each other.

But now it seems that everything is just her own passion. Huo Jin is not a wretch, he is a chess player.

"what would you like?"

"I want Ah Mo to sit on the throne of the King of God." The ambition in Yu Zhizhi's eyes continued to expand.

I didn’t think about myself before, but I don’t think about myself now.

Huo Jin was silent for a while: "Okay."

"The Ai family didn't think about themselves in the past, but now it's time to take this step. What kind of puppet emperor, what are the disobedient puppets doing?"

Yu Zhizhi's eyes darkened. For her, some things needed to be ended.

Huo Jin was not naive: "Give me half of the evidence and let me know that it is true. Otherwise, what will I do if my hard work is in vain?"

"You can't trust me, can you?" Yu Zhizhi twitched the corners of his lips, "That's right, you never gave me any trust before, okay."

Yu Zhizhi handed over the letters hidden in his sleeves. After a long silence, Huo Jin read the letters at a glance.

It was Prime Minister Yu who exposed the Huo family's crime of collaborating with the enemy to the late emperor.

"It's time to end things."

"Tomorrow, the Ai family doesn't want her to sit in the back seat." Yu Zhizhi gritted his teeth, an illegitimate daughter of a concubine, but tried to step on her.

I don’t know what kind of ecstasy soup Yu Jiaojiao gave Nangong Yuli, which actually made the emperor relent and exclude Yu Jiaojiao from entering the palace.

But now he is fascinated.

"I know what to do, I don't need your reminder." Huo Jin sat there, half of his indifferent face reflected by the candlelight.

Jiang Chiyu was waiting outside the door with soup. She was not surprised when she saw Yu Zhizhi coming out.

"I forgot what the little Queen Mother said very quickly." Jiang Chiyu raised a sneer on his lips, "Sometimes, what you see with your eyes may not be true."

"I'm much smarter than you."

Yu Zhizhi was very confident and left in a hurry.

Jiang Chiyu came in with hot soup and placed it on Huo Jin's side: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." The man's eyes darkened and he held the letter tightly in his hands.

Jiang Chiyu only read a few words briefly and already knew what it was.

Evidence of past crimes.

"Yu Zhizhi gave it to him?" Jiang Chiyu pursed his lips with a smile, "It seems they are all selfish. They have evidence of the Huo family being wronged in their hands, and I just want to give it to you now."

"Ah."

The man responded indifferently, his brows furrowed tightly, but after a while, Huo Jin hid the things.

Jiang Chiyu also continued to sit with him until late at night.

Huo Jin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"I……"

"No matter what you do, I will support you." Jiang Chiyu patted the back of his hand, "As long as you make up your mind, it'll be fine."

Huo Jin stood at the window, watching the rain pouring down outside, drenching the paintings in the garden.

The next day.

The ceremony for sealing the queen was being anxiously prepared. The preparations were finally completed before it started, and Jiang Chiyu walked over from this side of the steps.

But they saw a group of eunuchs sneaking away from them.

"lady."

"?"

Jiang Chiyu didn't speak. He just stood on the side and looked at the people not far away. They were busy and the whole process was very sneaky.

Jiang Chiyu found Huo Jin and was about to walk over when he saw Yu Jiaojiao running out of the side door.

It was clear that today was her big day, but she came out to see Huo Jin at this time.

The relationship between them is not very good.

Jiang Chiyu pricked up his ears and stood far away, but he could hear some very soft sounds.

"You really don't want to take me away?" Yu Jiaojiao took a deep breath, "Why not? I can give you what you want."

"Don't make trouble."

Huo Jin spoke indifferently, tensing his body as he stood in front of Yu Jiaojiao.

"You know best what the relationship is between you and me."

Jiang Chiyu's heart was in suspense. She seemed to have heard something crazy, and Yu Jiaojiao was about to cry.

"As long as we escape and you take me far away, they won't be able to find me."

"Impossible." Huo Jin took a deep breath, "As long as we leave, they will know that there will be no burial place when the time comes. You don't want to have a straw mat sweep you away after you die, right?"

"..."

Jiang Chiyu shook her head, feeling that all this was ridiculous. She walked over again and pricked up her ears, hoping to hear more clearly.

But Huo Jin has already arrived.

"When did Madam learn how to eavesdrop, huh?" Huo Jin said with a smile on his face, "Tell me what you heard, sir?"

Huo Jin's face was gloomy. Jiang Chiyu backed away repeatedly. She smiled and said, "I didn't hear anything. I'm just curious. When did you become so good with Yu Jiaojiao?"

"It's just a joke." Huo Jin said.
