Xiao Jinxing was very silent on the carriage ride.
Although he had always been silent around her, the current Xiao Jinxing seemed even more brooding.
"What did Wu Wenchang say to you? You seem so downhearted," Ye Qichi couldn't help but ask.
Xiao Jinxing gave Ye Qichi a glance, "How do you know that Wu Wenchang spoke to me about some matters?"
Her tone was not one of surprise.
As if she had gotten used to the fact that Ye Qichi seemed to know everything.
"I happened to see you walking with Wu Wenchang and Wu Xufan when I came out of Hezhen's room," she said.
"In two months, the Emperor will go hunting," Xiao Jinxing said. "The Empress Dowager has asked me to seize the opportunity to kill the Crown Prince and then frame Xiao Jinsen for it."
Ye Qichi was somewhat astonished.
Not astonished that Xiao Jinxing was moving to act so soon.
She was surprised that Xiao Jinxing would openly share their plan with her.
To be trusted like this was indeed a bit overwhelming.
