Next, Song Rui would cooperate with the Jia family.

He believed that he would soon be able to obtain more evidence and take control of more courtiers.

At that point, these people would be sufficient to sink Empress Jia, the Jia family, and the old fox together.

At the same time, he could take over everything belonging to the old fox smoothly and stabilize the situation in the Imperial Court.

“Really?” Qin Xiaoyao didn’t quite believe it.

“Mm-hmm.” Song Rui smiled and nodded.

“When the matter is accomplished, the court will be stable again. We can then go back to Mountain Spring Town.” At this point, Song Rui’s face was already filled with yearning.

Qin Xiaoyao’s heart skipped a beat.

“Mm-hmm!” She felt at ease at once.

After a while, she suddenly realized something.

“Oh, 1 see! You and Prince Huaiyin… so you two were in contact all along!” She struggled out of Song Rui’s arms abruptly.

They even had plans to take down Empress Jia, the Jia family, and Minister Shen on the Emperor’s birthday next month. How long had these two been in contact?

It was not possible that these two guys had just come into contact with each other.

To think that she was constantly worried about him and thought of myriad ways to get Prince Huaiyin to help him. It turned out that these two guys had hooked up long ago.

Song Rui’s expression froze.

Oops. He was too careless.

“So it’s true.” Qin Xiaoyao was even more annoyed when she saw this.

“My dear, lis… listen to my explanation first.” Song Rui immediately panicked.

“Alright. Then tell me.” Qin Xiaoyao suppressed the anger in her heart and glared at Song Rui.

Song Rui gulped.

“This… this matter…” He racked his brains, trying to find an excuse.

However, when he faced his wife’s face which looked as if it was about to explode in rage, he realized that all his efforts would be in vain.

Qin Xiaoyao was even more annoyed when she saw this.

“Tell me… When did you guys hook up?” she asked. Her tone sounded like Song Rui was a husband who had been caught cheating on her.

“That’s not how you use the phrase ‘hook up,’ is it?” A look of awkwardness flashed across Song Rui’s face as he carefully glanced at Qin Xiaoyao.

“If that’s not how it is used, then how should it be used?

“Hurry up and answer my question!” Qin Xiaoyao said impatiently.

She now suspected that that rascal Prince Huaiyin had tricked her.

And he was still talking about how he had helped her locate her husband in the Prime Minister’s residence after coming to the capital.

Perhaps, he had found her husband long ago.

Moreover, the two of them had even worked together. One of them had infiltrated the Prime Minister’s residence, and the other had pulled her along to help deal with the Liao soldiers who had breached the border.

When she thought of this, Qin Xiaoyao instantly felt furious.

“Tell me quickly!” She looked angrily at Song Rui, who didn’t reply in time.

Song Rui’s heart shuddered.

“Then if I tell you, can you not get angry?” he asked Qin Xiaoyao.

Qin Xiaoyao almost gritted her teeth in anger.

“What do you think…”

Song Rui’s eyes were filled with fear.

“I guess not,” he replied.

“Then why are you still asking?” Qin Xiaoyao was even angrier.

Song Rui looked at Qin Xiaoyao guiltily again.

“On the third day after leaving Mountain Spring Town, I was saved by His Highness,” he finally said.

Qin Xiaoyao was shocked.

Just as she was about to blow up, Song Rui added, “In return, I agreed to work for His Highness.

“I just didn’t expect you to leave Mountain Spring Town and go to the border to carry out so many deeds.”

Qin Xiaoyao frowned.

“Since you were out of danger, why didn’t you send a message home? Or inform me,” she questioned him.

A trace of guilt flashed across Song Rui’s eyes again.

Following that, Song Rui didn’t answer her but asked instead, “If you found out that I’m in the capital, what would you have done?”

“Don’t ask stupid questions. Of course, I would have come to look for you,” Qin Xiaoyao immediately said.

As soon as she said that, she understood what Song Rui meant.

“Even if you were afraid that I would come to the capital and expose your identity, I’m still here now, aren’t I? Haven’t I met up with you and acknowledged you?” Qin Xiaoyao said indignantly.

Was she someone who didn’t know priorities?

If he told her the truth, not only would she help him keep his identity a secret, but she could also help him in secret.

Song Rui sighed again.

“But now you entered the capital as a warrior. After that, you were conferred the titles of a marquis and a general.

“Even the Empress’s brother wouldn’t dare to antagonize you in your current status. You can even protect our family.”

He didn’t need to worry so much about Marquis Xiaoyao, but he was worried about Commoner Qin Xiaoyao. Moreover, the fact that his wife would be entering the capital was already set in stone at that time. There was no way to change it.

Qin Xiaoyao was stunned.

Only then did she figure out the key points.

Nonetheless, she was still annoyed.

After a moment of silence, she finally couldn’t bear to remain angry at Song Rui.

She pulled a long face and asked Song Rui “What else are you hiding from me?”

Song Rui was surprised, but he felt a little relieved.

However, after recalling some things, a guilty look flashed across his face again.

When Qin Xiaoyao saw this, her anger surged again.

“Oh, great. So there are still other things.”

Qin Xiaoyao couldn’t hold it in anymore and said angrily, “Song Que, tell me everything honestly today. Otherwise, I won’t let you off!”

Song Rui’s heart shuddered.

“My dear, don’t be angry. I’ll tell! 1’11 tell you everything!” he quickly said.

After hesitating for a moment, he revealed everything under Qin Xiaoyao’s gaze.

“The other thing was, after you came to the capital, I arranged for someone to help you.”

Qin Xiaoyao was stunned.

“Who is it?” She couldn’t be bothered to think any further and simply asked directly.

“Liu Ling,” Song Rui said guiltily.

Qin Xiaoyao was stunned again.

Then, she glared furiously at Song Rui.

That was great. This guy had been jealous of her all this while, presumably because of Liu Ling.

Yet now, he was saying that Liu Ling’s involvement was arranged by him.

Was it fun to toy with her?

When he saw that Qin Xiaoyao was about to blow her top, Song Rui quickly grabbed Qin Xiaoyao’s hand.

“Liu Ling is not an outsider,” he continued.

Qin Xiaoyao looked at Song Rui.

Song Rui quickly continued, “He’s my younger cousin.”

“And Yun Niang from Cloud Scent Court. She’s also my younger cousin.

“Their father is our mother’s younger brother, our uncle.”

Qin Xiaoyao was shocked.

Thereafter, a wave of understanding flashed across her heart.

It was no wonder that Mother seemed overly concerned about Liu Ling. Had she recognized Liu Ling?

Good grief. Liu Ling looked so much like her husband. Also, his face looked a little similar to her mother-in-law’s. Yet she didn’t notice anything unusual!

“So, you were the one who arranged for Yun Niang to take the initiative to approach me and ask me to redeem Liu Ling?” Qin Xiaoyao asked.

To think that she thought she was charming and capable, which was why Yun Niang approached her.

It turned out that her husband was the one who instructed Yun Niang.

Recently, she was still feeling smug, thinking that her business was doing well and that she had the talent to do business.

It turned out that it was because her husband had helped her behind her back.

Song Rui looked at Qin Xiaoyao guiltily.

“Mm-hmm.” Then, he nodded.

“Yun Niang and Liu Ling have been in the capital for many years.

“It just so happened that during that period of time, Jia Kun was pestering Liu Ling. So 1 made those arrangements and asked Liu Ling to help you.”

Qin Xiaoyao glanced at Song Rui and felt a little better inwardly.

It seemed that Liu Ling’s trouble was not entirely fake.

Otherwise, she really didn’t know how she would get along with Liu Ling in the future.

After a moment of silence, Qin Xiaoyao looked at Song Rui again.

“1 remember that you promised me in the past that we husband and wife would not hide anything from each other and would face everything together..”
