Chapter 931: Unrequited Love

The Xie Clan hastily dispatched their men of sacrifice, determined to swallow the five thousand taels of silver rewarded by the Emperor back into their own mouths.

It was not that Xie Xian was greedy, but he really did not care about this small amount of money.

The main thing was that the Emperor wanted to take revenge and let the assassins assassinate him.

However, this matter is at most a low-class method and can’t be brought up to the public. Moreover, you’re holding a public reward with the drum flag. Are you afraid that Yin Qing’s reaction will be too slow and the difficulty of assassinating him will be too low?

This could only be done privately.

Who would do it?

The Xie family. Otherwise, would the emperor keep him?

He didn’t want to use the imperial guards. It was not worth it if he really lost them. Moreover, those people all had official positions. It was a matter of life and death if you sent people to Northern Wu to assassinate them. No one would be willing to do so. If there was a traitor with ill intentions in Northern Wu, the whole team would be wiped out. Not to mention, Daliang’s face would be completely trampled by Northern Wu.

The Xie family’s men of sacrifice were Emperor Yong Ping’s target.

Xie Xian was well aware.

###

After sending the men of sacrifice away, Xiao Baoxin was busy with the hibiscus marriage.

She picked one after another. Not only was she not satisfied, but she was also not satisfied. They were either too old or too young. There were at least two children who were of the same age as Mu Jin…

This reminded Xiao Baoxin of another matter. On the day of Xie Xian’s assassination, Mu Jin seemed to have taken a fancy to someone when she was halfway through her conversation with him.

Regardless of whether she really liked him or not, at least from what Mu Jin said, it naturally eliminated the possibility of Jin Jin.

However, Xiao Baoxin was quite curious about who it was. Mu Jin was like a gourd with a saw-off mouth. He could not get a single word out of her.

Cai Wei leaving the residence was a huge loss. Without that megaphone, how much information had she missed?

They picked a sunny day. Xie Xianzheng was also in the residence. The couple discussed and invited Jin Jin over. Previously, he had promised others that the Xie family would work hard to marry a young lady that he had taken a fancy to.

Especially in the residence, there was no movement for such a long time. Xiao Baoxin was afraid that this Jin Jin person would be rude and inconsiderate, ruining the reputation of the little lady.

“General, do you have someone you like?” Xiao Baoxin was not a person who beat around the bush. Jin Jin was also a boorish man who knew how to eat. If you were to be tactful with him, he might not be able to hear it. It was a waste of breath.

Xie Xian once again realized his wife’s straightforward character.

Really, he didn’t say a word of courtesy and spoke his mind directly without wasting a single word.

Jin Jin was also stunned. He was a rough person, but he did not expect Madam Xie to be so straightforward. She hit the bull’s eye with her axe.

“There is.” He readily admitted it, and it was extremely rare to see a trace of red on his tanned face.

Xie Xian drank his tea silently.

“Who is it?” Xiao Baoxin was interested.” General, you’re straightforward. I won’t beat around the bush. He had promised the general before that when the general had someone he liked and wanted to get married, the Xie family would definitely come forward to be your guarantor.”

“General, is it convenient for you to explain it to us?”

Jin Jin blinked and picked up the snacks that he always had on the table. He only said hesitantly after he had finished all four plates and his mouth was clean,”

“I’ve been wondering if I should mention it too.”

“If I didn’t say-”

“If I say it, I’m afraid that she won’t agree and ruin her reputation again.”

Xiao Baoxin felt as if grass had grown in his heart. If it wasn’t for the fact that his gossipy dog blood soul was burning, he wouldn’t be able to sleep soundly if he didn’t figure this out. She wouldn’t be so eager to listen to his nonsense.

If he wanted to say something, he could just shut up if he did not want to.

He was hesitant, like a man.

She couldn’t catch up to her husband.

He really wanted to, but his mouth was also really tough. He refused, refused, and repeatedly refused. If it wasn’t for her talent and skills, she would have long been listed as a rejected person if she didn’t know that he wanted to kiss, hug, and lift his heart high.

“Then let’s not talk about it-”

“It’s the Fifteenth Lady of the Wang family.”Before Xie Xian could finish his sentence, Jin Jin spoke first,”It has nothing to do with her. She didn’t even say a few words to me. It’s me, that single… Xiangsi.”

Xiao Baoxin almost spat out a mouthful of blood on Jin Jin’s face.

Wang Shiwu’s mother, who lived in the back of the residence, didn’t usually walk around the residence, but he could see her now–several times, what should she say? Was he scheming?

Perhaps this was fate?

Aunt Fifteen was her best friend. Before she understood Aunt Fifteen’s true thoughts, she naturally couldn’t make a judgment.

However, the scholarly daughter of the Wang family and General Jin Jin, who only knew how to eat and kill enemies and allies on the battlefield, made Xiao Baoxin’s heart feel like it was about to explode.

“Since it’s unrequited love, then don’t tell anyone.”Xiao Baoxin gritted his teeth, thinking about his best friend’s reputation.

“Didn’t the madam ask?””

He had been holding it in for the past few days. He didn’t know if he should say it. Even his appetite had become bigger.

Xiao Baoxin choked.” Isn’t it because of my mouth?” He finally understood why Mu Xi didn’t say anything. It was about Wang Shiwu’s mother. Her identity was very sensitive.

“It’s Madam who is responsible. She has always kept the promise she made to me in her heart. ” Therefore,” Jin Jin said sincerely,” I’ll have to trouble Madam to ask Fifteen Wifey a question. I, Jin Jin, am willing to entrust my family and my life to her. I’ll listen to her from now on. I’ll raise her son as my own…” Feasible?”

It wasn’t that Jin Jin was too ambitious.

He knew that there was a Wang Shiwu’s wife in the Xie residence through her son, Chu An. He had interacted with Chu An quite a lot. The seven-year-old boy was steady-even more steady than him. He spoke like a little adult, but just like him, he loved to eat. The two of them were eating friends and had once exchanged information about delicacies.

Naturally, she also knew that Wang Shiwu’s mother wasn’t Chu An’s biological mother, and she also found out that the widowed daughter of the Wangmen family had married Chu Silang.

Jin Jin was extremely grateful. There was actually such a beautiful woman in this world. At that time, he thought that it was rare. Later on, he accidentally met Wang Shiwu’s mother in Chu An’s front yard.

Alright, it was fine if he didn’t see her, but once he did-

Why was such a beautiful woman a widow?

Why was the heavens so unwelcoming and made her life so difficult? She didn’t even have a confidant?

Why wasn’t it his?

Jin Jin was twenty-four years old, and his heart suddenly exploded. Every day, he would scratch his heart, dig up his portal, and steal his cave to see Fifteen Madam Wang. As a result, he became much closer to Chu An. He would take the initiative to bring many delicacies outside the residence to Chu An. It was no longer the same as before.

Who was Chu An? When he was two years old, he was adopted by his biological parents to Wang Shier’s mother. He lived with her in the Chu family and the Xie family for five years.

The Xie family was not bullied and targeted like the Chu family. The Xie family treated the mother and son very well.

However, he was living under someone else’s roof after all. Chu An was mature and knew how to read people’s expressions early on. That Jin Jin knew everything. How could he not see what was going on in his heart?

In less than half a day, he had already found out about Jin Jin’s background.
