The mind-reading sick prince led me and the system to go crazy

After the city guards took all the officials away, Xie Xi did not go directly to interrogate them one by one, but took his fourth brother Xie Jin to Jiangning No. 1 Restaurant.

The Tianzi private room in the First Restaurant.

The guards of both sides stood opposite each other, guarding their respective masters.

Xie Xi seemed unaware of the alertness coming from Wen Chao and Wen Kang. He pursed his lips, picked up the teapot unhurriedly, and poured a cup of tea for Xie Jin: "Top-quality Qiancengxiang, fourth brother, you can have a taste."

Hearing this, Xie Jin lowered his eyes and glanced at his teacup with a dark look in his eyes, then quickly retracted his gaze. When he looked up at Xie Xi, his face regained its gentle and harmless look, and he smiled and said, "Thank you, second brother."

"But I wonder where my second brother lives now?"

Xie Jin did not touch the teacup, still indignant: "I never thought that Shi Weian was harboring evil intentions, taking advantage of the banquet to send assassins to kill the officials in Jiangnan. If my second brother had not arrived in time, I am afraid that I, the fourth prince, would not have escaped..."

At the end, Xie Jin paused, and looked at Xie Xi with a look of dependence and fear, and said with a sigh: "If I really fell into the hands of Shi Weian, I'm afraid my second brother, father and mother would all be sad..."

"Second brother, do you think what Fourth brother said is right?"

Xie Xi: “…”

It doesn't matter whether it's right or wrong. What matters is that Xie Xi heard a silent threat in his words.

Xie Xi closed his eyes, and his heart gradually grew cold. His fourth brother had really grown up, and now even the words he spoke were full of thorns.

It made him feel endlessly chilled.

The reason why he didn't take action against his fourth brother now was indeed out of consideration for his father and mother.

But once he returned to Shengjing, he would definitely tell his father and mother everything his fourth brother had done to him, and leave it to them to decide.

If his fourth brother was not born of the same mother as him, he would not have so many concerns.

As expected, there is no true love between brothers in the royal family.

Xie Xi sighed inwardly, picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said in a light tone: "If Fourth Brother is really afraid that Father and Mother will be sad, then Fourth Brother should not have come to Jiangning."

"Besides, Fourth Brother should have known that the Jiangnan area is in chaos now. He came here at this time instead of earlier. If Father and Mother knew about this, Fourth Brother would be scolded again."

The smile on Xie Jin's lips gradually faded.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked directly into his second brother Xie Xi's eyes without giving in, as if he wanted to see through the other's thoughts.

Could it be that what happened at the banquet today aroused the suspicion of the second brother? Or did the second brother deliberately hide in the dark and hear something?

If it were in the past, Xie Jin would definitely not suspect that his second brother had noticed his disguise, but now...

Nothing can be predicted!

Damn it!

If he had guessed his second brother's plan early on, he wouldn't be in such a passive situation now.

Also, Shi Weian must be silenced to eliminate the hidden danger.

As his thoughts raced back and forth, Xie Jin felt more and more regretful. After all, his plan this time was too reckless. He didn't expect Shi Weian to be such a loser that even his trump cards were taken away by others!

Having missed this good opportunity, he can only wait for the next time!

Xie Jin subtly suppressed the murderous intent in his eyes and said with a smile: "Second brother has always loved me the most. How could he possibly tell this to my father and mother and let me be scolded?"

Xie Xi suddenly chuckled: "Of course."

"As early as half an hour ago, I had already sent someone to deliver a letter to Shengjing. In addition to reporting to the emperor about what happened at today's banquet, I also briefly mentioned my fourth brother. I'm sure the emperor will soon know that my fourth brother is now in Jiangning."

"Moreover, due to his stupidity, Fourth Brother was deceived by Shi Weian and almost joined Shi Weian in murdering Jiangnan officials."

Actually not.

Half an hour ago, Xie Xi had no extra time to write a letter and send it back to the capital.

It depends on whether Xie Jin believes it or not.

Upon hearing this, Xie Jin's face suddenly twisted, and his right hand hanging by his side slowly clenched into a fist.

He sneered in his heart, he didn't expect that Xie Xi would have such a plan behind his back!

Xie Jin barely suppressed the anger in his heart, took a deep breath, and said, "Since Second Brother is determined to have Fourth Brother scolded, Fourth Brother will excuse himself first."

He would send someone to intercept the letter as soon as possible.

This time when he left Shengjing, no one knew about it except the two guards who followed him.

Even his father and mother were kept in the dark by him. The "Fourth Prince" who stayed in Shengjing was just his substitute!

If my father really gets to know about this, I'm afraid he will be furious.

Xie Jin didn't dare to gamble.

Xie Jin got up and left.

"Wait a minute."

As soon as Xie Xi opened his mouth, Guard Mu Qing understood instantly, strode forward, raised his hand to stop the Fourth Prince, stared at the Fourth Prince, and said expressionlessly: "His Highness has ordered, please do not leave, Fourth Prince."

Before he finished speaking, Wen Kang and Wen Chao drew their swords and pointed them at guard Mu Qing.

Xie Jiu, Xie Shiqi, and Xie Shiba stood up almost at the same time.

Xie Jiu: "His Highness has ordered that the Fourth Prince please stay."

Wen Kang and Wen Chao both looked extremely ugly.

Even Xie Jin's expression was not much better. He shouted coldly: "Second brother, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to kill this prince?"

Xie Xi calmly pointed to his seat and said, "Fourth brother, sit down."

Xie Jin didn't move for a moment.

Xie Xi didn't mind letting him continue standing. "The matter about Shi Wei'an has not been clarified yet. Fourth brother, there is no need to leave in such a hurry. Moreover, fourth brother should know why I appeared in Jiangning."

"And since Fourth Brother has had dealings with Shi Weian, should Fourth Brother talk to me and provide some clues to this case?"

Having said that, Xie Jin stopped pretending. He turned around, stared at Xie Xi with sharp eyes, and sneered: "Your Highness the Crown Prince really thinks highly of me. With my status, even if Shi Weian really did something bad behind my back, would he tell me?"

Xie Jin knew that he would have a falling out with his second brother Xie Xi after they met today.

"I heard that Fourth Brother has been staying in the Governor's Mansion for a few days. Does that mean you really don't know anything?"

"I don't know, second brother, you don't have to doubt me."

"Since Fourth Brother is unwilling to cooperate, I will have no choice but to go to the prison in Jiangning first."

"Go ahead, second brother. I said I don't know, and that's it!"

Xie Jin pretended to be tough, but gave Wen Kang and Wen Chao a look without saying anything.

Xie Xi stared at him for a moment with deep eyes, then slowly withdrew his gaze. He lowered his head again and took a sip of tea, "Okay."

"Mu Qing, go to the prison."

"Yes."
