After marrying the hunter, he became more and more abnormal

Chapter 450…

It was impossible to ask for help from others, and Shen Qingyun was ultimately unable to get any scented tea from Shen Fu.

As for Lingchuan, although the plan was aborted due to Shen Fu's departure, there are advantages to changing people. Shen Qingyun knew very little about them, so it would be easy for them to deal with the situation if they couldn't hire anyone.

That’s right. From the very beginning, Ling Chuan had never thought of inviting the fictitious friend to come out. What he could give Shen Fu was to use their friendship to reveal the source and efficacy of the medicine.

And now, the seeds of suspicion have been planted in the hearts of the Shen brothers. Even if Shen Qingyun does not trust them, once the matter is related to the Shen family, he will definitely send people to investigate thoroughly.

So after discussing it, the two decided to take the cold approach.

Shen Qingyun didn't come to find them, and they didn't go to find him either. When things were almost left alone, the anxious people would naturally come to them.

The days passed peacefully like this for a few days with no one disturbing them until someone from the government office posted a notice on the street about the Hua family.

"I heard that the traitor Hua family will be executed tomorrow at noon."

"Tsk! Great job! I hate traitors the most!"

"It's just..."

When they heard the news, Xia Mo and Ling Chuan were stunned at first, and then they realized that this was most likely their strategy.

After all, Qiao Ruicheng was in an awkward situation. If he jumped out to appeal for the Hua family at this time, it would definitely arouse the old emperor's suspicion, which would be very disadvantageous to him.

Ling Chuan said: "I will go to the execution ground tomorrow to check. If he is okay, he will give us a signal."

Xia Mo also thought about Hua Chaoxue coming to the courtyard to look for them, and said, "I'll go too."

Ling Chuan frowned slightly, not quite in favor of him going with him, "It's bloody."

Xia Mo glanced at him speechlessly, "I've seen people being killed, so why would I be afraid of others being beheaded?"

Unable to persuade him, Ling Chuan had to give up.

On the second day, the two hid among the crowd who followed the prison van and threw rotten vegetable leaves and stones, looking around, trying to find Hua Chaoxue.

The prisoners in the prison van were disheveled, bloodied and ragged, with their heads lowered so that their original appearance could not be seen.

Xia Mo took a few glances and found that it was indeed very similar to some of the substitution plots he had seen, so he became more and more certain that these prisoners were not Master Hua and his gang.

Finally, the prisoners were taken to the execution platform. Ling Chuan searched for two familiar faces in the crowd. One was the one they gave to Hua Chaoxue, and the other was the one he saw in his dream.

So he gently pulled the boy, and when he looked over, he said, "I saw them."

Xia Mo's face lit up with joy, and he asked, "Where is it?"

Ling Chuan didn't say anything, he just turned his head and looked in one direction.

Following his perspective, Xia Mo accurately found Hua Chaoxue looking around in the crowd. He didn't care about the prisoners on the execution platform and seemed to be looking for something.

It's good to cooperate with smart people who have tacit understanding with you, Xia Mo sighed, feeling that they are one step closer to returning home.

As he was thinking, he glanced at the tall young man next to Hua Chaoxue. At this moment, Hua Chaoxue just turned his gaze away and talked to him. It was obvious that they knew each other.

"The person next to him...could it be him?" Xia Mo turned around and asked Ling Chuan.

Ling Chuan replied: "It's him."

After getting a positive answer, Xia Mo couldn't help but take another look, but unexpectedly the other party looked over at him suddenly as if sensing his gaze, causing him to quickly look away.

Qiao Ruicheng hesitated for a moment, and when Hua Chaoxue asked him "What happened over there?" he quietly withdrew his gaze, said nothing, and asked him again: "Did you find them?"

Hua Chaoxue shook her head and sighed, "I didn't see it."

Then he touched his face and said thoughtfully: "Maybe they are here too, but I just can't recognize them."

Qiao Ruicheng frowned and subconsciously looked towards Xia Mo, only to see that he was throwing something towards the execution platform. His shouting was drowned out by the noise and he could not hear clearly.

Perhaps he was overthinking, Qiao Ruicheng looked away again.

Xia Mo got a false alarm and thought to himself that it was fortunate that he was quick to react and promptly grabbed some vegetables from the basket of the auntie next to him to put on a show and dispel the other party's suspicion.

After confirming that Hua Chaoxue was fine, Xia Mo finally felt relieved.

At the same time, it also proves that their plan was very successful. Qiao Ruicheng knew the conspiracy of the Cangxuan countries three years in advance, and he would never let them take advantage of the opportunity and cause the tragedy of the previous life to happen again.

Xia Mo and Ling Chuan have confidence in him.

……

Maybe the third prince is too popular, so after reaching his peak, there must be decline.

Even though the eldest prince hated him and Prince Qiao and his son suspected that he was the one who exposed Qiao Wenjin's gender, he was at the top of Jin Xuhua's list of clearing obstacles.

What Qiao Ruicheng sent the secret guards to do just happened to give them a boost - it turned out that the third prince was not of royal blood, but the product of his mother's debauchery in the harem.

This news was so shocking that the old emperor almost fainted from anger.

No man can tolerate his woman giving birth to a child that is not of his own blood, let alone the man is the emperor.

The third prince, who was caught off guard, refused to admit it, but it was useless because the other princes would not be stupid enough to give up such a good opportunity to get rid of their competitors.

They dug up the scandal of the palace maid committing an indecent act in the bed of the Third Prince's mother and concubine, and added fuel to the fire in the old emperor's ears, saying that they had always felt that the Third Prince was not like him.

The old emperor was furious and wanted to use blood test to prove his relationship with the third prince, and the third prince had to obey even if he didn't want to.

Even if he is really the old emperor's flesh and blood, there are people who can prove that he is not.

As expected, he is not the old emperor's son.

The officials from the Third Prince's mother's clan who had been kneeling outside and thinking about meeting the Emperor collapsed to the ground after learning the result, muttering with a deathly pale face: "It's over, it's all over..."

The third prince is really finished, along with his maternal family and the officials who have close dealings with him.

Of course, the ones who regretted their decision the most were those who had immediately surrendered to the eldest prince when they saw him fall from power. They did not get any benefits, and almost lost their families as soon as they gave gifts and established a relationship with him.

Because of the third prince, the old emperor was also afraid that the Qiao family's dynasty would change, so he secretly tested the blood of other royal heirs. Those who were worthy would be kept, and those who were not worthy would be secretly killed.

Xia Mo and the others knew nothing about this. They only knew that the Third Prince was gone, and Jin Xuhua's butcher knife would be directed at the next one until all obstacles were removed.

On the other side, Shen Qingyun waited a long time for Ling Chuan's reply, and finally couldn't wait any longer and went to his house.

Perhaps because he was worried that they really would not help, or perhaps because of Shen Fu's warning, he stopped being aggressive and even brought gifts.

Although the first meeting was not pleasant, since he was a guest at home, Xia Mo did not lose face and served him tea.

Shen Qingyun asked Ling Chuan directly: "Mr. Mo, is your friend willing to see me?"

Ling Chuan said calmly: "He didn't reply. Wait a little longer. I will go to the original restaurant to find you when there is news."

Hearing this, Shen Qingyun frowned slightly, and stared at Ling Chuan more sharply.

Xia Mo felt that this guy must be suspicious of them, suspecting that they were deliberately delaying.
