Rebirth: The paranoid war king was controlled by the crazy female protagonist
Chapter 181 The Name Called in the Dream
As soon as Xiao Yanzhou entered, she sat up and rubbed her eyes lazily.
"Brother Zhou...what happened?" she murmured, her voice a little hoarse from having just woken up.
He hurried forward with concern, "Why did Xiaoyu wake up?"
She blinked her blurry eyes and said, "I heard voices outside."
After hesitating, he told her, "Xiao Yu, Jiang Zhuo is here to see you."
She was drowsy, but suddenly woke up at this moment, "Okay, let him in."
"Is everything ok, Xiao Yu?"
"Yeah, no problem."
Although she agreed, her mood changed visibly from the moment she saw Jiang Zhuo.
"Daughter, are you okay?" Jiang Zhuo couldn't wait to come to the bedside, his face full of worry.
However, in her opinion, it was a drama full of loopholes. Her daughter was almost blown to death, but there was not even a trace of tears in her pupils.
She pretended to be calm and curled the corners of her lips. "My daughter is lucky. She was only slightly injured. It's okay. It's a pity that those people suffered with me."
Xiao Yanzhou, who was standing aside, heard these words. Her sad tone was obviously filled with hostility, and her hands tightly clutching the quilt told him so.
Is she scared? Or... angry?
Jiang Zhuo didn't pay attention to her words and smiled slightly, "Don't think too much, my daughter. Take good care of your injuries first and listen to His Majesty, understand?"
She nodded in acquiescence.
During this time, Jiang Zhuo put a note in her hand and winked at her.
She instantly understood what Jiang Zhuo meant. He must be trying to let her accidentally hint the contents of the note to Xiao Yanzhou.
Jiang Zhuo got up and left without saying a few words, and she clenched her fists tightly, as if she wanted to tear her flesh and crush the note.
How can a person who took advantage of his daughter's life still live in this world? !
Why did they assign her a task with such confidence? This is ridiculous!
Jiang Zhuo, your happy days won’t last long, so enjoy your last peace!
"Xiao Yu! Xiao Yu!"
Xiao Yanzhou called out to her many times but she didn't respond until his palm covered her clenched fist. Only then did she come to her senses and look at him.
"What's wrong, Xiaoyu?" He looked at her with hopeless eyes, which were filled with hatred.
"Brother Zhou, what crime will the murderer be charged with if he is caught?" she asked this question.
But before she could get a reply, she continued, "Whatever it is, it shouldn't be a crime punishable by death."
"Xiao Yu..." He understood that she must want to tell him something.
Now he had to admit how important Xiaoyu was in his heart, and he absolutely could not allow anyone to bully her.
She lowered her head and looked at her hands, and he followed her gaze.
She slowly opened her fist, and inside was a piece of paper.
Xiao Yanzhou's nerves tensed up immediately. Was it Jiang Zhuo who just gave it to her? !
She took the note in her hand, and a more meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her lips. "Brother Zhou, guess what's written on it?"
He was stunned and did not respond to her smile. Whatever it was, it was definitely not a good thing.
But why did Xiaoyu choose to tell myself?
He reached out to take it, but heard her continue: "I think it should be telling me that the murderer is Xiao Yanqing or something like that."
He opened the note in confusion and was stunned for a moment.
The note clearly said, "The murderer is Xiao Yanqing."
He looked back at her, but his face showed the joy that she had guessed the answer correctly.
"Hehehe..." She laughed softly, excitement mixed with a strange morbidity surrounding the house.
"Really? You took me for a fool."
At this moment he noticed her gradually gaining viciousness. Having witnessed this scene with his own eyes, he was not surprised, but was more concerned about her purpose.
What does she want to do and what result does she want?
"Don't worry, Xiaoyu. No matter who he is, I won't let him go."
She curled her lips and said calmly: "Brother Zhou, can you take a look at who was the one who tried his best to control the situation when the incident happened? Who was the one who tried to block the handling of this matter again and again?"
Her calm thinking ignited his repeatedly suppressed anger, and he controlled himself to pull the note in his hand, thinking about something.
……
In the next two days, the Ministry of Justice also came to report to Xiao Yanzhou that the murderer had not left any loopholes, but the scope was also being narrowed. It was found that all the relatives of the people imprisoned in the prison had left Yongqing City before the incident.
As for the fact that they confessed under coercion and inducement during torture, it was because someone asked them to frame King Xiao, but they didn't know who it was.
As Qingyu expected, Jiang Zhuo looked for him every day, saying that he came to see her, but Jiang Zhuo's topics all revolved around the case of the explosion in the gunpowder workshop.
This further confirmed what she said, that whoever wanted to control the gunpowder factory case must be the murderer.
Qing Yu's condition has been fluctuating over the past two days. After diagnosis, the imperial physician gave the answer that something must have stimulated her. Xiao Yanzhou naturally blamed Jiang Zhuo for this stimulation.
It also proves that she has extraordinary endurance.
In order to reduce her pain, we had to let her sleep more, which resulted in her being drowsy for two days and not knowing what was happening outside.
Xiao Yanqing tried every possible way to see her in the past two days and was worried about her situation all the time. However, because Xiao Yanzhou stayed by her side almost all the time, he could not get close to her and could only watch her from a distance.
He kept telling himself that he must quickly find out all the evidence at hand so that the emperor would return to the palace to deal with it.
The person being searched for based on the portrait has been confirmed to be in Yongqing City, and all that remains is to arrest him.
"Your Majesty." He walked into the house and looked at her sleeping soundly on the bed.
He couldn't feel at ease. How was she? Was she okay? Was she feeling very uncomfortable?
Xiao Yanzhou also came back to his senses in exhaustion, "Are there any results?"
"It's Your Majesty."
He turned to her on the bed, and after confirming that she was okay, he didn't want to wake her up, "Let's talk outside."
But just as Xiao Yanzhou stood up, she on the bed suddenly murmured from her dream.
"Um... Yan Qing..."
His heart suddenly stopped.
Xiao Yanzhou also looked back in surprise, "What did Xiao Yu say?"
Her whispered words were not clear, and Xiao Yanzhou could not make out the content of the words, but he heard them clearly.
Yuer was calling his name.
He unconsciously clenched his fingers, repeatedly restraining himself from taking steps forward.
Xiao Yanzhou turned his head to look at her, as if expecting the lovely scene to happen again.
At this moment, he selfishly hoped that Yu'er could say it again so that the emperor could hear it, so that they would not have to continue hiding it.
It's a pity that everything didn't go as he expected.
