Chapter 209 Attacking the Capital



Chapter 209 Attacking the Capital

After listening to Zhong Lin's words, Xu Yingying nodded helplessly, "Okay, I understand."

After saying that, Xu Yingying quickly found Li Siqi and prepared to tell him this extremely important news.

"How is it?" Li Siqi glanced at Xu Yingying.

After hearing what Li Siqi said, Xu Yingying pretended to be mysterious and pulled Li Siqi aside.

Li Siqi frowned slightly, not knowing what Xu Yingying was doing.

"I'm going to tell you a secret. Don't be too surprised when you hear it." Xu Yingying looked around, as if she had received some incredible information.

Li Siqi found it interesting after hearing what Xu Yingying said.

What kind of big event could make Xu Yingying find me so mysteriously?

"I heard that the Western Regions are going to attack the capital." Xu Yingying said seriously.

Looking at Xu Yingying's expression, Li Siqi was sure that she was not joking, but these words were like a bolt from the blue, making Li Siqi feel very uneasy.

"You asked that guy?"

Li Siqi frowned slightly. If this information was true, it would definitely be explosive news.

Xu Yingying nodded, "Yes."

Li Siqi took a breath of cold air. This information was very important.

And just at this moment, someone came to convey the order.

Seeing the eunuch delivering the imperial edict, Li Siqi and Xu Yingying saluted respectfully.

"Your Highness."

Su Shengyuan looked at Li Siqi attentively, and then looked at Xu Yingying.

"There's nothing else to do, just to inform you to attend the sacrificial ceremony in three days."

After hearing this, Xu Yingying nodded and accepted the order.

"Your Highness, I'm leaving now."

Su Shengyuan was very polite to Li Siqi, and Li Siqi nodded.

Looking at Su Shengyuan's back walking away, Li Siqi turned around and glanced at Xu Yingying.

"Is there anything else you can ask?"

Li Siqi frowned and glanced at Xu Yingying, his eyes full of anxiety.

Seeing how concerned Li Siqi was, Xu Yingying nodded.

"It's no problem for me to ask her, but I don't know if it will work."

Xu Yingying didn't agree too confidently.

After hearing Xu Yingying's answer, Li Siqi nodded quickly and glanced at Xu Yingying.

"Thank you for your trouble." Li Siqi was very sincere.

Xu Yingying blushed slightly, turned her head and stammered, "I...I'll go ask first."

After Xu Yingying finished speaking, she turned and left. Li Siqi sighed and shook his head.

"Zhong Lin, Zhong Lin." Xu Yingying called Zhong Lin's name, and soon Zhong Lin appeared in front of Xu Yingying.

"Master, what happened?" Zhong Lin was very confused. Looking at Xu Yingying's anxious look, Zhong Lin felt particularly puzzled.

Xu Yingying was a little anxious at this time and wanted to find out what was going on in the Western Region as soon as possible.

"It's what you talked about last time, the thing in the Western Regions." Xu Yingying stared at Zhong Lin with her eyes wide open.

Zhong Lin nodded after hearing this, "Yes, the Western Regions are going to attack the capital, but I just heard about this, and I don't know if it's true or not."

Zhong Lin stared with her eyes wide open, her expression very innocent.

"what?"

After hearing what Zhong Lin said, Xu Yingying was completely dumbfounded. She didn't expect that such important information from Zhong Lin was actually heard from somewhere else!

Resisting the urge to remain silent, Xu Yingying continued to ask, "Where did you hear that?"

Although the reliability of this information was greatly reduced, it was explosive news after all, so Xu Yingying still planned to ask about it.

After hearing what Xu Yingying said, Zhong Lin scratched his head again, "I heard it from others when I was walking around on the road. It's hard to say whether it's reliable or not."

Zhong Lin still looked very sincere.

After hearing this, Xu Yingying's enthusiasm was dampened a lot. After all, this was the news that Zhong Lin heard from passers-by.

"What's wrong?" Zhong Lin asked Xu Yingying. Xu Yingying looked really strange.

"Nothing for now." Xu Yingying shook her head, still looking helpless.

After hearing what Xu Yingying said, Zhong Lin seemed to be thinking about something.

Xu Yingying found Li Siqi.

"How is it?" Li Siqi was very excited to see Xu Yingying coming back. He wanted to know if Xu Yingying had found out any new and valuable information.

"Well... the source of the news is hearsay, so you should judge the truth of this matter yourself." Xu Yingying scratched her head, looking embarrassed.

After hearing Xu Yingying's words, Li Siqi remained calm.

"Even if it's something we heard about it, it's probably not groundless. No matter what, we must pay attention to the developments in the Western Regions." Li Siqi looked solemn and serious.

After hearing what Li Siqi said, Xu Yingying nodded and expressed her affirmation. After all, even without this information, the Western Regions still needed to be guarded against.

The next day, when Xu Yingying was sitting at home, someone actually delivered a letter.

Looking at the letter, Xu Yingying frowned, a little confused. She was not sure whether the letter was for her.

"Are you sure this isn't for Li Siqi?"

Xu Yingying looked at the maid and asked. She noticed that the signature on the letter was actually Yang Huiwen.

What could Yang Huiwen want from me?

She really couldn't figure it out.

"I told you it's for you."

The maid was very sure. After all, she had asked the other person specifically a long time ago.

Xu Yingying nodded and opened the letter with curiosity.

"Can we come to Baihua Tower for a gathering?"

Looking at the contents of the letter, Xu Yingying fell into deep thought. Yang Huiwen actually wanted to meet with her.

However, since the other party is looking for me, there must be something. He would not look for me for no reason, so I still have to go this time.

Xu Yingying came to Baihua Tower very happily.

She originally thought that Yang Huiwen, as the top star, would be very popular, but she happened to see Yang Huiwen being excluded. It seems that jealousy exists everywhere.

When Yang Huiwen saw that it was Xu Yingying, she was very excited and her eyes lit up, which scared Xu Yingying.

"What are you going to do?" Xu Yingying looked at Yang Huiwen.

"Come with me." Yang Huiwen took Xu Yingying's hand, and Xu Yingying came to her own room and closed the door.

"What happened that day...is it related to ghosts?" Yang Huiwen glanced at Xu Yingying and asked cautiously.

Xu Yingying didn't expect Yang Huiwen to ask such a question, but since she asked it and was very sincere, she just told the truth.

"Yes, it's a long story about that day, but you're right."

Xu Yingying was rarely honest with Yang Huiwen.

After hearing this, Yang Huiwen nodded thoughtfully.

"I want to ask you a favor. I won't ask you for nothing. I can give you a reward."

Yang Huiwen's attitude was very humble, which made Xu Yingying a little uncomfortable.
