Chapter 331 Xiao Jian's Past
When it comes to Cai Lian, Aunt Xiao still feels a little awkward.
Although she pretended not to know Cai Lian at the time and did not dare to ask the Fifth Lady anything, everyone knew that Xiao Jian rescued Cai Lian in order to let her do something.
Later, in order to avoid suspicion and not to implicate his uncle and aunt if something happened, Xiao Jian began to act alone, busy contacting people everywhere, and no longer contacted them.
They never saw Cai Lian again after that, but they were still deeply impressed by this smart, hardworking and beautiful girl.
But in the current situation, it is clear as long as you think about it. It is impossible for Cai Lian to get close to the Fifth Prince for no reason, and it is even more impossible that it was a coincidence after she separated from Xiao Jian.
So there is only one possibility, Cai Lian betrayed Xiao Jian.
It's even possible that she stepped on the sister of her savior to get to the top!
When Aunt Xiao thought of this possibility, she became very angry. She could guess the whole cause and effect. Their Yun'er was just a princess, but Cai Lian actually became a concubine.
It’s not that he looks down on Cai Lian, it’s just that the Fifth Prince acts too much in love with Xiao Yanzi. As a result, he has three women in his backyard, and Xiao Yanzi is the one who is doing the worst.
It’s simply unbelievable!
"I originally wanted to wait for you to come back and then confront Cai Lian in front of the Fifth Prince, but we left in a hurry today."
After Aunt Xiao briefly explained what happened, Uncle Xiao was also a little angry. "Are you sure it's her? Don't make a mistake. There's no misunderstanding here, right?"
Aunt Xiao spat softly, "I saw it with my own eyes, how could I possibly misunderstand? This traitor stepped on Yun'er to get to the top. How dare she do that?"
"No wonder that lady asked us that day if we knew Cai Lian. I guess she also had some doubts." Uncle Xiao pondered.
Speaking of Xinrong, Aunt Xiao had a much better impression of her than Cailian. "I think Cailian is not content in the mansion either, otherwise why would Fu Jin associate us with her for no reason? She must have been investigating something."
Xiaoyanzi, who had been silent from the beginning and had only listened quietly to the conversation, finally understood what was going on. "Uncle and aunt, is what you just said true? Is Cailian really yours?"
Xiaoyanzi suddenly remembered what Cailian said to her when she first moved into the Fifth Prince's mansion.
When Cai Lian said that she had met her brother once, she didn't take it seriously.
Now that I think about it, Cai Lian was someone Xiao Jian arranged for! What was this about just a chance encounter? Perhaps I hadn't told her the truth. I'm afraid she and my brother are very familiar with each other. It's even possible that Cai Lian has always been in contact with her uncle and aunt.
Xiaoyanzi didn't dare to think about it anymore. She was afraid of being stupid to death. She really didn't believe Cailian at first, but she didn't expect that she really knew her.
Seeing Xiaoyanzi's sudden question, Uncle Xiao didn't intend to hide it from her. "Cai Lian was rescued by your brother. She was almost dead at the time, but your brother gave her something to eat, took her on a journey around the country, and taught her how to make a living. So, I guess your brother is her benefactor."
Aunt Xiao snorted coldly, "Your uncle is still being conservative. If it weren't for Feng'er, Cai Lian would have died long ago. How could she have had the chance to enter the prince's mansion and become a concubine?"
"Yes," Uncle Xiao nodded and added, "But from what we understand, your brother didn't save her out of pure kindness. He just needed her to work for him."
"Work for your life?" Xiaoyanzi felt as if everything was getting confusing, as if everyone had their own goals and things to do, and she was the only one who was living in confusion.
Even though she and Xiao Jian had lived together in Huibin Building for several months, her understanding of him was limited to the fact that he was a hero with excellent martial arts skills.
Uncle Xiao was a little hesitant. These things were in the past. Xiao Jian had done it to avenge his father, but now all was over. He was hesitating whether to let Xiao Yanzi know.
Sometimes, being confused can make you happier.
Seeing Uncle Xiao's hesitation, Xiaoyanzi was very determined, "Uncle, please tell me, I really want to know more about my brother."
She hasn't called him brother yet.
After a long time, Uncle Xiao told Xiao Jian what he had been doing over the years.
Xiao Jian already remembered the events when the Xiao family suffered misfortune, so he has been trying to find a way to avenge the Xiao family for so many years.
But he knew that his enemy was the current emperor, the most noble person in the world. He did not have the ability to overthrow a dynasty, so he could only plan and find an opportunity to assassinate him.
Xiao Jian thought of many ways and made efforts for many years.
He even went so far as to collude with a number of evil cults such as the White Lotus Sect just to be able to assassinate the emperor together.
He had saved Cai Lian on impulse. Before that, he had never thought that he could train a few stunning beauties to get close to the emperor and assassinate him.
Xiao Jian even wanted to chop off the Dog Emperor's head himself to avenge his father.
But after rescuing Cai Lian, Xiao Jian changed his mind again. Cai Lian was very smart and might be useful at a critical moment. For example, he could let her lurk around the emperor. Even if she could not assassinate the emperor, it would be crucial to pass on the message when they were preparing to assassinate.
Later, the emperor's southern tour gave them the opportunity. This was thanks to the emperor and his entourage's high-profile behavior. Soon, the news of the emperor's incognito visit spread everywhere.
Upon hearing the news, Xiao Jian took Cai Lian on horseback to catch up with the southern tour team, and then the story of Cai Lian selling herself to bury her father and successfully getting close to the Fifth Prince happened.
As for why it was the Fifth Prince, it was because Xiao Jian recognized his sister.
Although he couldn't be sure at the time, just based on her appearance and innate blood connection, Xiao Jian was almost certain that this was his sister.
Most importantly, the nun who adopted Xiaoyanzi told him that his sister was called Xiaoyanzi! Calling her Xiaoyanzi gave Xiaojian more confidence in recognizing his sister.
This was enough to make Xiao Jian ecstatic.
But the only thing that made him dissatisfied was that his sister was so close to the son of their father's murderer, and even called the murderer "Emperor Father"!
Although he didn't know how Xiaoyanzi became the emperor's adopted daughter by accident, how could he allow his sister to recognize a thief as her father!
This discovery drove Xiao Jian crazy.
So he changed his mind temporarily, and Cai Lian changed from seducing the old pervert to seducing the fifth prince.
Obviously, it is difficult to seduce the Fifth Prince, and Cai Lian did not succeed completely, but at least she did cause some conflicts between Xiaoyanzi and Yongqi.
Later, in Qijiang Town, Xiao Jian came closest to a successful assassination. This time, almost all members of the White Lotus Sect were mobilized, and Xiao Jian and his brothers were among them.
It’s a pity, he was almost successful.
Xiao Jian made all kinds of calculations, but still failed. He underestimated Fu Lingan's meticulousness and carefulness, and also underestimated his strength.
Since his plan failed, Xiao Jian could only lie low and hide from being hunted down.
