Chapter 510 Don't Tell Ajing
Sima Changfeng looked at Xiao Yu with a cold gaze, "Everything I did was just for revenge!"
"Revenge?" Xiao Yu frowned slightly.
Sima Changfeng's face was gloomy. He snorted coldly and said, "Where do you think those secret guards came from? They were all born by their parents. Some were sons of good people, and some were sons of slaves. But as secret guards, they only need to make a sharp knife, so how can they have any worries? So their parents became the dead souls under the knife, and they died with their eyes open."
Only then did Xiao Yu understand Sima Changfeng's life experience.
Xiao Yu hesitated for a moment and asked, "Do you want to seek revenge on the emperor?"
Sima Changfeng's eyes were cold. "Su Heng worked for the emperor back then."
Xiao Yu didn't believe everything he said.
"You have been in the palace for so many years, why have you never taken any action?" Xiao Yu asked in an indifferent tone. His questioning and suspicion were obvious.
"Some of those people are orphans who joined voluntarily. They have undergone bloodthirsty training for years. Their purpose of living is to carry out missions and to defeat everyone in the annual showdown to become the new leader. I need help, but they can't."
Sima Changfeng had a heavy expression on his face, and from just a few words, one could get a glimpse of what kind of life he had led as a secret guard over the years.
Xiao Yu had no sympathy for this.
When they were young, perhaps they had no choice, but in the massacre that year, many of the people who died were the elderly, the weak, women and children who were powerless. No one could forgive him on their behalf.
But with him around, many things were indeed much easier. The antidote to the Ban Yue poison was still in his hands. To a certain extent, he could control Sima Changfeng, but not completely.
He would never completely trust Sima Changfeng.
"I can temporarily reach an agreement with you, but you have no credibility with me. Tell me where you are from, your parents' names and where they are from. I will send someone to verify them one by one."
Sima Changfeng knew that Xiao Yu was dissatisfied with his concealment of his identity, so he spread his hands helplessly, "Even if I told you, you won't be able to find out. The people in that village have long been dead."
After saying that, he added with a sinister smile, "I killed him."
Xiao Yu looked at him calmly, curled his lips and sneered, "A wild goose leaves traces when it passes by. As long as it exists, I can find it."
Seeing that he could not dispel Xiao Yu's suspicion, Sima Changfeng told Xiao Yu everything.
After that, Sima Changfeng said: "You can check it out, but I have one condition."
Xiao Yu frowned, "What conditions?"
Sima Changfeng said: "Don't tell Ah Jing my true identity for now, at least until revenge is successful. After the enemy dies, I will let her do whatever she wants."
Yan Qing who was behind Xiao Yu couldn't help it at this moment. He had seen shameless people, but he had never seen anyone so shameless.
Before Xiao Yu opened his mouth, he mocked, "Sima Changfeng, you killed her brother, and you lied to her to treat you as your friend! Are you sick?"
Sima Changfeng didn't care about Yan Qing's scolding. He said calmly, "She hates me. I will let her do whatever she wants to calm her down, but not now."
Yan Qing stretched his neck and looked at Sima Changfeng in disbelief, and was amused by his shamelessness.
"Is this a matter of time? You are cheating! You are really an old lady leaning against the wall to drink soup!"
Xiao Yu raised his hand at the right time to stop Yan Qing from saying the next thing, and responded calmly, "I promise you."
Seeing Xiao Yu's instructions, Yan Qing was still indignant, but did not continue.
Ignoring Yan Qing's questioning gaze, Xiao Yu continued, "To prove your sincerity, find out where Chu Yin, the Xiongnu who colluded with Su Heng, is hiding."
Sima Changfeng readily agreed, "Deal!"

On the way back in the carriage, Yan Qing looked like he was troubled. He looked at Xiao Yu and seemed to be hesitant to speak. He wanted to open his mouth several times but held it back.
Xiao Yu looked at him, raised his lips slightly and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Seeing Xiao Yu asking, Yan Qing no longer held back, sat up straight and asked: "Prince, although it is important to find evidence against Su Heng, we can try other methods. There is no need to sacrifice Sister Jing's beauty."
"Although Sister Jing is fierce and has good kung fu skills, most people don't dare to provoke her, but Sima Changfeng is a shameless person, and Sister Jing is pretty, so there is no guarantee that she will not suffer. After all, she is a woman."
Hearing her words, which he didn't know whether to praise or insult, Xiao Yu couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Ajing is not an ordinary woman. She can decide for herself what to do."
"Your Highness, do you want to tell Sister Jing? But if she knows, won't she go and get Sima Changfeng?"
"Ajing must know the truth. If she gets angry right after knowing it, she will not be suitable to stay in the capital. If she can keep her composure, we can discuss the next matter in detail."
After hearing what Xiao Yu said, Yan Qing breathed a sigh of relief and secretly apologized in his heart for suspecting that Xiao Yu would take advantage of Sister Ajing's beauty.
He knew that the prince would never use any means to achieve his goals.

There were only Xiao Yu, Yan Qing and Li Jing in the study.
Xiao Yu told Li Jing the whole story from beginning to end, looking at her calmly, waiting for her reaction.
Li Jing looked at Xiao Yu, her cold almond-shaped eyes filled with complicated emotions: shock, anger, and hatred intertwined. Her hands on her knees were clenched so tightly that the knuckles turned white.
The little bit of trust and goodwill that had once developed disappeared in an instant. Strong emotions filled my body and my heart was beating wildly in anger.
"Sister Ajing, are you okay..." Seeing her like this, Yan Qing couldn't help but worry, as if she would pick up her sword and kill at the next moment, and his brows were so tight that they could pinch a mosquito.
Seeing her intense emotions, Xiao Yu frowned slightly and said, "Ah Jing, whether he is sincere in cooperating remains to be considered. During this period of time, you need to temporarily suppress your hatred. Can you do it?"
"I don't know." Li Jing said in a deep voice.
One of the enemies who killed her brother is now shamelessly living in the yard where she and her brother once lived together. Now she just wants to chop off that man's head with a sword as a sacrifice to her brother.
The pain in her palm allowed her to maintain a bit of rationality, so she did not pick up the sword and go look for Sima Changfeng.
Thinking about what happened before, Li Jing's anger increased instead of decreased.
No wonder Li Qingfeng knows so much about her life preferences and everything about her and her brother.
Sima Changfeng actually dared to take advantage of the relationship between her and her brother, deceive her, and gain her trust and favor. No matter what, she would not speak calmly to Sima Changfeng, at least not now.
The nameless anger was still surging in her heart. Her breathing became heavier. Li Jing looked at Yan Qing with cold eyes and said without letting anyone refuse: "Come out and practice sword skills with me."
Looking at the coldness and murderous intent in Li Jing's eyes, Yan Qing felt his hair stand on end and a chill on his back.
He stretched his neck to look at Xiao Yu, with pleading in his eyes. Xiao Yu nodded gently and comforted him, "Go, Ajing knows her limits, nothing will happen."
Yan Qing then followed Li Jing and stood up. He looked at Xiao Yu pitifully and winked at him, asking him to watch carefully to prevent Ah Jing from being too harsh.
Xiao Yu shook his head helplessly and stood up. Yan Qing then smiled brightly and followed Li Jing out.
