823. Chapter 823 Secret letter from Imperial Capital
Late at night, strong winds suddenly rose, and a thunderbolt of lightning broke through the dark sky, and the heavy rain accompanied it.
Wei Zijin, who had always been dreaming, was suddenly awakened by thunder and lightning. She had not yet come to her senses. She didn't even know whether she was awakened by the thunder and lightning or because of the nightmare she had, just sitting on the bed in a daze.
"Zi Jin, why are you awake?" Xiao Jingyao seemed to hear the sound of Wei Zi Jin getting up, and the maid who was ordered to watch the night lighted up the candlelight in the house. He saw that Wei Zi Jin's shoulders seemed to be trembling, and hurriedly walked to her and sat down.
Holding her whole body into her arms.
"I had a nightmare..." Wei Zijin whispered, not wanting to think about what was in his dream. She just leaned in his arms like this, listening to his powerful heartbeat, and then let out a low breath.
Come to mind.
"Jingyao, when did you get up?" With the swaying candlelight and the lightning that occasionally cut through the sky, she noticed that Xiao Jingyao was wearing a long gown and looked like he had woken up for a long time.
"Just before you wake up!" Xiao Jingyao replied softly. Although his voice was as gentle as before, Wei Zijin still keenly captured his frowning brows and his dull face.
Wei Zijin thought of the nightmare he had before, suddenly had an unknown premonition and asked worriedly: "Is something happened?"
Xiao Jingyao didn't plan to hide this from her, so he took out the secret letter from the imperial capital and handed it to Wei Zijin.
"Is this?" Wei Zijin took the secret letter and asked in confusion.
"This is an urgent secret letter sent by Han Xianger from the palace..." Xiao Jingyao explained in a deep voice. Before he could finish his words, Wei Zijin had already lowered his head and hurriedly went to see what was written on the secret letter.
Xiao Jingyao stood up in the middle of the night.
There are not many words on the secret letter, but from the font, it can be seen that Han Xianger, who wrote this secret letter, was also anxious!
Wei Zijin held his breath intently, and when he saw the word "reducing the vassal state", his mood suddenly sank to the bottom!
She looked at the secret letter silently for a long time before handing it back to Xiao Jingyao, frowned and asked, "Jingyao, what do you think about this?"
"Han Xianger overheard the discussion between Xiao Heng and the attendant Deng Xian, which means that even if Xiao Heng had such an intention, he had not announced it in the court yet. This gave us the opportunity to deal with it!"
When Xiao Jingyao said this, he paused and continued: "I have sent someone to inform Xiao Rong and others of this news. I believe that as soon as this news comes out, it will definitely shock all the princes and princes!"
Wei Zijin nodded and said thoughtfully: "This time Xiao Heng may not only want to reduce the vassal states, but also to remove the power of famous clans. In this way, it gives us a legitimate reason to win over the aristocratic clans and other princes!
”
Xiao Jingyao nodded and smiled, a sharp light flashed in his eyes: "Yes, what we are waiting for is this legitimate reason!"
He said this, stroked Wei Zijin's hair and put a gentle kiss on her forehead: "It's still early now, you can sleep for a while..."
Wei Zijin nodded softly and lay back on the bed. Xiao Jingyao pulled the brocade quilt for her, then got up and gave an emergency order.
Wei Zijin closed her eyes, listened to the storm outside, and would not stop for a moment, and sighed with a wry smile: "What should be come, it's still here after all!"
