Chapter 106 Let me see your sincerity
"Miss Ji, don't underestimate yourself. You are someone who can make Shen Jing fall in love with you, which shows that you are still somewhat useful."

Wei Songlin stroked Ji Anyu's cheek with the back of his fingers.

"If you didn't have any status in Shen Jing's heart, he wouldn't have come to you in person that night. This shows that he trusts you deeply."

"That's just what outsiders see." Ji Anyu looked sad.

"People only see the glory on the surface, how can they know the pain in my heart? Lord Wei, you have been with the prince for many years, you should also know that the prince is very defensive."

Seeing that Wei Songlin's expression relaxed, Ji Anyu took the opportunity to speak.

"I don't know the prince, but you don't know him either. Do you think he would be tempted to trust a girl? I remember Lord Wei said that the prince and you are like brothers, so would you trust a girl?"

Wei Songlin's eyes moved and he suddenly took a step back.

There was no way he could trust anyone, let alone a girl who showed up out of nowhere.

Ji Anyu wiped the smile from her lips with a handkerchief.

"I think the prince treats me the same way as Lord Wei. He doesn't trust me and is only pretending to be attracted to me. He probably wants outsiders to think that the prince has a weak spot and let down their guard against him. When the time is right, the prince will catch those people with ulterior motives in one fell swoop."

Wei Songlin's expression suddenly became sharp, and he stared at Ji Anyu angrily.

"That's right. Shen Jing has always been vigilant." He had been lurking beside Shen Jing for many years, but in the end he failed to gain Shen Jing's trust.

How could Shen Jing trust Ji Anyu, who suddenly appeared?

He was thinking wrongly. He made a rash conclusion based on the fact that Shen Jing had protected Ji Anyu several times. Shen Jing had also saved him several times before.

"Miss Ji Er, I can't figure out why Shen Jing likes you. You are just a decent-looking person, and the rest of you is just so-so. But since Shen Jing has chosen you as bait, he will protect you for the time being."

"Oh." Ji Anyu sighed.

"My marriage to the prince was granted by the emperor. Even though I know that the prince has no interest in me and is even using me, I cannot disobey his order."

She stole a glance at Wei Songlin.

"I was reckless in my words and offended Lord Wei. I apologize to you. You have repeatedly asked me to cooperate in killing the prince. I was originally timid, and you pushed me into a corner, so I couldn't help but get excited and speak out of turn."

Seeing that Wei Songlin had no intention of leaving, Ji Anyu cursed inwardly.

"Sir Wei, if we really want to investigate, we are in the same boat. Although I don't know why you insist on killing the prince, I also hate that the prince used me. If I find an opportunity in the future, I will definitely kill Shen Jing with my own hands. However, when the assassination is reported to the emperor, I hope Sir Wei can say a few good words for me."

Wei Songlin lowered his eyes to look at the girl in front of him who seemed to be on the same boat with him, then raised his head and stared at Dongshan.

"Today is a good day. Let me see your sincerity tonight."

Ji Anyu raised his eyebrows in confusion. What did Wei Songlin mean?
Suddenly, Wei Songlin smiled coldly and grabbed a handkerchief to cover her mouth and nose, and she soon lost consciousness.

……

"Where did the lady go?"

Qing Wu returned to Chaoyang Courtyard after dinner. After taking a look around, he didn't see Ji Anyu and felt something was wrong.

Qiao Xin was sitting beside the stone table embroidering a handkerchief. "Oh, the young lady has gone to change her clothes."

"You didn't follow?"

"Han Yan is beside the young lady."

Qing Wu tightly grasped the sword at his waist, "How long have they been gone?"

"It's been a while." Qiao Xin thought about it and it seemed like it took longer to change clothes than before.

"Maybe the young lady has a stomachache. She has been taking those medicines recently. Could she have an upset stomach?"

Qing Wu frowned seriously when he suddenly heard the sound of weapons fighting.

"Oh no, something happened." She quickly turned around and rushed to the toilet.

Qiao Xin quickly dropped her handkerchief and chased after him.

Along the way, I saw a familiar secret guard being beaten.

"Who hurt you?"

"Go find the prince quickly, the young lady has been kidnapped!"

Qing Wu looked back at Qiao Xin who was hurrying over.

"Don't tell anyone. I'll go back to Prince Zhong's mansion to get help to save the young lady. You go and see Han Yan." Qiao Xin nodded fearfully and staggered to the toilet.

She was worried that Han Yan had already...

Qiao Xin pushed open the door of the toilet and saw Han Yan lying on the ground.

"Han Yan, Han Yan!"

Qiaoxin called out with a pale face. She checked Hanyan's mouth and nose and saw that he was still breathing. She couldn't help but cry for joy.

"There is still hope." Qiao Xin quickly carried Han Yan back to the house.

On the east mountain.

Ji Anyu woke up and looked around in shock, seeing trees everywhere.

This is where?

"Master Wei, where are you? Wei Songlin!"

She was answered by silence, with the faint sound of birds chirping.

Wei Songlin is gone.

Bastard, he actually abandoned her in the wilderness.

Ji Anyu stood up weakly and suddenly found a dagger on her body.

She grabbed the dagger and looked at it. The blade was extremely sharp.

Wei Songlin wanted her to use this dagger to assassinate Shen Jing!

Haha, so this is what Wei Songlin meant when he said he wanted to see her sincerity.

Ji Anyu smiled coldly, thinking that Wei Songlin would not still be ambushing people nearby, so she just waited for Shen Jing to come find her.

Wei Songlin is stupid, and she doesn't have time to play with him.

Ji Anyu looked up at the sky. She had to go down the mountain before dark.

There are jackals in the mountains at night. If she encounters one, she will be either dead or crippled.

Ji Anyu quickened her pace, secretly cursing Wei Songlin for giving her some kind of drug that made her legs and feet weak. After running a few steps, her heartbeat quickened and she felt dizzy.

She looked around as she walked down the mountain. If she guessed correctly, she was at Dongshan at this moment.

It just so happened that the place where Wei Songlin dropped her off was sparsely populated, overgrown with weeds, and the road was steep and difficult to walk on.

The soil under his feet was still a little soft, and Ji Anyu slipped and fell several times.

It can be seen that it had just rained here.

No wonder that bastard Wei Songlin said today was a good day, he must have thought of the difficult mountain road.

If he really succeeds in killing Shen Jing, he can put the blame on Shen Jing accidentally falling into the mountain and being eaten by jackals.

Ji Anyu hooked onto the tree trunk and wiped away the tears that were streaming down her brow. She looked at the long and tortuous road down the mountain, and she didn't know how Wei Songlin brought her up.

It was obvious that he was torturing her on purpose and prolonging the time it took her to get down the mountain. By the time she reached the bottom of the mountain, Shen Jing might have arrived at Dongshan.

Ji Anyu didn't know how long he had been walking, he just felt his legs and feet were tired and sore, he accidentally slipped and fell down the mountain, and instantly passed out.

"Who?"

Xu Yuyan seemed to hear some sound. He walked over and was surprised to see Ji Anyu appear in front of him.

"Miss Ji Er, wake up."

Xu Yuyan hesitated for a while and looked at the unconscious Ji Anyu with embarrassment.

He had already paid a heavy price and made up his mind a few days ago that he did not want to get entangled with people from the capital for the time being.

But the weather in the mountains is changeable. If he doesn't come to the rescue, Ji Anyu will most likely be in great danger.

"Miss Ji, I'm sorry." Xu Yuyan pulled Ji Anyu up and carried her to a safe place.
