Xiao Chengyi let go of Mu Yun'an and returned to his previous calmness. He said: "Come in."
Qingying walked in, handed a letter with both hands and said: "Your Majesty, someone tied this letter with an arrow and shot it at the gate of the government office. Because the rain was too heavy, our people could not catch up."
He had been leading people to guard in front of the county government office. Sure enough, someone sent a letter to the county government office, but the other party was very cautious and took advantage of the rain to hide himself well.
Xiao Chengyi reached out to take the letter and opened it, and saw a few big characters written on it: "Xiao Chengyi, long time no see."
Xiao Chengyi studied these big characters, and it was not difficult to see the provocation of the other party.
He curled his lips, but suddenly laughed: "As expected of the prime minister's son, it seems that he has long expected that I will be guarding the county government office.
Therefore, I specially sent a declaration of war to this king, and I am somewhat looking forward to the game with him."
This letter can be said to confirm his previous guess that the mysterious Master Qianji is the former Prime Minister's Master Han Qiancheng.
And this letter was Han Qiancheng declaring war on him.
Mu Yun'an frowned and asked, "But he didn't say what his purpose was? Did he spend so much effort just to send you such a letter?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "I made a miscalculation. He must have thought of other ways to publicize the letter to Yan Jing. It won't be long before Yan Jingxuan will know about Chu Chu's arrest."
Since Han Qiancheng guessed that he would stay at the county government office, he must have planned it and spread the news to the capital in other ways.
Mu Yunan asked worriedly: "Then what should we do now?"
She didn't know how Yan Jingxuan would react if he learned about Chu Chu's affairs. After all, it was not only Chu Chu who was arrested, but also Yan Ruoling and Ye Xiuchen.
Xiao Chengyi crushed the letter into pieces, held it in his hand and said, "Let's see what Han Qiancheng's goals are first. At least before his goals are achieved, Chuchu and the others are safe. I will send people to keep an eye on them at Qingfeng Village."
Mu Yun'an nodded, stood side by side with him and asked, "What do you think Han Qiancheng wants to do? Does he simply want to seek revenge on Yan Jingxuan? Or is he targeting you?
But when you were in Beichen, you didn’t seem to have any issues with him, right?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "Why not? Have you forgotten that Han Qianyu was disfigured? When Han Qiancheng asked for medicine, I turned him away several times.
Moreover, the destruction of the Han family was also our fault, so how could Han Qiancheng not hold grudges? And..."
He narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Not only me, but you are also his target."
Mu Yun'an looked confused: "Me?"
Xiao Chengyi nodded: "To be precise, it's the Mu family. Han Qiancheng's father, Han Jun, died at the hands of his father-in-law.
So whether it’s Yan Jingxuan, me or you, we are all targets of Han Qiancheng’s revenge.”
Mu Yun'an's heart felt like it was falling into an ice cave after hearing this. She gritted her teeth and said angrily: "Who is so hateful that he poisoned Chu Chu and the others and let them fall into the hands of Han Qiancheng.
If it weren't for that person, would we be so passively threatened? If I knew who did it, I would definitely cut her to vent my anger."
She put her hands on her hips angrily, with a fierce look on her face.
Xiao Chengyi looked at her and said, "I can probably guess who did it."
Mu Yun'an was stunned and asked hurriedly: "Who is it?"
