Chapter 116 Discovered
Shi Yuan was a little surprised by what Shi Xiaoxiao said.
He was pleased with Xiaoxiao's bravery, but he would not let Xiaoxiao do such a dangerous thing.
"No, Daddy can do these things. I hope my Xiaoxiao can grow up without worries."
Shi Xiaoxiao disagreed, "Daddy, Xiaoxiao also wants to be able to stand on her own two feet and share your worries. You have always been the one protecting Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao also wants to grow up quickly and protect Daddy and Mommy. This time, just treat it as a training session for Xiaoxiao."
As she spoke, she pulled up Shi Yuan's sleeve and shook it, "Okay, Daddy, don't worry. If Xiaoxiao encounters something she can't solve, she'll be the first to come to you."
Shi Yuan tapped Shi Xiaoxiao's forehead in amusement, and said in a doting tone, "Okay, okay, whatever you want to do, but some things are very dangerous. I'll assign you some secret guards."
"Oh, no need. Huiyun and Fengying are enough. Too many people would be too eye-catching."
Shi Yuan didn't force it, nodded, and said softly: "It seems that Daddy's love for you is not in vain. You know how to share Daddy's worries."
Shi Xiaoxiao raised her head proudly, "Of course!"
She took the token in her hand and waved to Shi Yuan, "Then my daughter will go back first."
Shi Yuan nodded.
Looking at Shi Xiaoxiao's back, his eyes deepened slightly.
Xiaoxiao seems to be getting smarter and smarter.
It wasn't long before Shi Xiaoxiao returned to the yard.
A figure landed in Xixiao Courtyard.
An Er walked to Shi Xiaoxiao's side and clasped his fists to her.
"Miss Shi!"
Shi Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows slightly and said calmly, "Who was there tonight?"
An Er was slightly surprised.
How did she know someone had gone there before he even opened his mouth to speak?
It seemed as if everything was within her expectations.
An Er was slightly surprised and admired Shi Xiaoxiao even more.
He immediately said respectfully: "It was Councillor Huo Tingxing, but he waited for a while after arriving there and then left in a hurry."
An Er naturally knew many ministers by Ji Chen's side. He knew at a glance that the man was Huo Tingxing.
Therefore, there was no need to follow to check his identity, so he hurried back to inform Shi Xiaoxiao.
What he didn't understand was why the councillor appeared there for only a short while and then left in a hurry.
It was as if a ghost was chasing him.
Shi Xiaoxiao lowered her eyes slightly when she heard that.
Leaving in a hurry?
It seems that he has suspected something.
After all, Mo Qing disappeared after he released the flare. Anyone who is not stupid would know that there must be something fishy.
Perhaps he had guessed that Mo Qing was exposed.
But so what, she just needs to know that he is Huo Tingxing.
It doesn't matter whether Mo Qing was discovered or not.
Shi Xiaoxiao curled her lips slightly, a hint of evil amusement flashing in her eyes.
He waved his hand and said, "Okay, I got it."
An Er was confused.
He asked softly, "Then will your subordinates still keep an eye on it?"
"No need."
There was no need to keep watching there anymore. Mo Qing had already been caught, and there was nothing to be found out even if we continued watching.
An Er clasped his fists and went out.
Although he didn't know what Shi Xiaoxiao was up to, it had nothing to do with him.
He was too lazy to ask, he just needed to protect her safety.
After Shi Xiaoxiao pondered for a moment, she began to feel doubtful.
Why did Huo Tingxing want to harm Shi Yuan?
Why do you want to destroy the entire Prime Minister's Mansion?
What grudge does Shi Yuan have against him?
As for asking him to drag the entire Prime Minister's Mansion into it.
They used such vicious tactics as treason and collaborating with the enemy.
As far as she knew, Shi Yuan admired Huo Tingxing very much and admired his abilities.
Since Shi Yuan could feel good about him, it seemed that he had no grudge against Shi Yuan. Then why did he want to harm the Prime Minister's Mansion?
Could it be that he wants the position of Prime Minister Shi Yuan?
So you want to bring Shi Yuan down and then take his place?
Or maybe he is just someone else's lackey, taking orders from others, and the person who wants the Prime Minister's Mansion to be destroyed is someone else?
Shi Xiaoxiao shook her head. No matter whether he was ordered by someone else or not, she would not let him go.
If Huo Tingxing is really someone else's running dog, then if something happens to him, the real person behind him will definitely react.
She couldn't figure it out, and she was too lazy to think about it anymore.
She didn't want to dwell on the problems that gave her a headache.
Anyway, she only knows that if no one offends me, I will not offend anyone. If someone offends me, I will punish him even if he is far away.
She is a very vindictive person.
She will be good to those who are good to her, and she doesn't want to have anything to do with those who are not good to her.
Putting everything behind her, she fell asleep.
And the other side.
Huo Tingxing returned to his house, feeling uneasy.
After much thought, he decided to take a trip late at night.
He immediately changed into night clothes and ran in one direction.
In a mansion.
Huo Tingxing looked respectfully at the person in front of him.
He lowered his head again and again.
"Your Highness, Li Hua just released a signal flare, but when I arrived, he wasn't there. I suspect he might have been exposed."
In the darkness, a figure stood under the wintersweet tree, pinching a tender yellow plum blossom with his fingers.
The man had an extremely cold aura, no expression on his face, and a pair of unfathomable black eyes.
Hearing this, he tilted his head slightly, a dangerous glint in his eyes.
His voice was slightly hoarse, as if he was whispering, "Is it exposed?"
Huo Tingxing lowered his body even lower, his voice trembling slightly. "Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't set off flares casually. Since he did, there must be news to be spread. But the person didn't show up. He must have been caught. Should we continue with our plan?"
Now that the person might have been arrested, he didn't dare to contact Li Hua rashly.
This matter is of great importance. If he rashly contacts Li Hua, he might be traced back to find clues about him.
That was a capital crime, and even his family would be implicated. He really didn't dare to make the decision on his own.
So he had no choice but to find this person who was extremely dangerous to him.
The man was silent for a moment.
The breath of his whole body was so low that Huo Tingxing was suffocated.
When Huo Tingxing's back was wet with cold sweat.
He just said, "Then, the plan is cancelled!"
Huo Tingxing was shocked. He was shocked by the choice made by His Highness.
They had been preparing for this plan for a long time, but now it has been cancelled.
He suddenly hoped that Li Hua was really arrested, in case his guess was wrong.
Now that the plan has been cancelled, he will be the one to suffer.
He suddenly remembered something and asked worriedly, "Then what should we do with the things we left in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
He was afraid that Shi Yuan would find out and take advantage of them.
The man thought for a moment and said slowly, "I will send someone to investigate the situation. Don't act rashly for the next few days."
Huo Tingxing bowed his head and clasped his fists, "Yes!"
Then he retreated quietly.
After Huo Tingxing left, the man was still standing there in a daze, as if thinking about something.
After a long time, the plum blossoms on his fingertips were crushed by him and slowly fell down.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and a deep gloom appeared in his eyes.
Shi Yuan, the old fox, actually discovered it.
