Chapter 1056 Foreign Enemies and Internal Traitors Sitting Opposite Each Other
Chapter 1056 Foreign Enemies and Internal Traitors Sitting Opposite Each Other
When Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu arrived, they discovered that there were two shadowy figures hiding in the courtyard where Jiang Ciche's study was located.
Leng Rongyue brandished the tranquilizer gun in her hand, then pointed to the two hidden figures, indicating to Xiao Jingyu...you take care of one, I'll take care of the other!
Xiao Jingyu nodded, concealing himself as he approached the hidden guard who was further away.
Soon, Leng Rongyue saw the hand gesture Xiao Jingyu made and attacked at the same time as him... Both hidden guards lost consciousness at the same time.
Xiao Jingyu and Leng Rongyue reunited, and before they could even speak, their ears twitched simultaneously... There was the sound of a carriage!
The two exchanged a glance. Regardless of the carriage outside or whether the Crown Prince of Dongwei was openly entering the Vice Minister's residence or secretly searching for someone, they first needed to confirm whether Vice Minister Jiang Ciche was currently in this study.
If someone is in... that would be best;
If the person is not there, they will first have to find the Second Assistant Minister Jiang Ciche, and then wait for him to come to them...
The two nimbly climbed onto the roof, gently lifted a tile, and peered down into the house below, where lights were on...
Below was indeed Jiang Ciche's study, which was very quiet at the moment.
A man was sitting behind the desk reading a book. He appeared to be nearly sixty years old, with a light beard on his chin...
Because he was looking down, his face was not very clear.
Leng Rongyue had never met the Second Assistant Minister Jiang Ciche.
Leng Rongyue had only ever seen Jiang Ruofu, Jiang Ciche's arrogant and haughty granddaughter who looked down on people, on Yunxiang Mountain... Oh, and the maids and servants around Jiang Ruofu.
Leng Rongyue thought that the person who could openly read a book here must be Jiang Ciche!
Leng Rongyue looked at Xiao Jingyu.
When Leng Rongyue saw Xiao Jingyu smile and nod at her, she felt relieved, knowing that they didn't need to go looking elsewhere. The person reading below was the Second Assistant Minister Jiang Ciche.
It's unclear whether Jiang Ciche knew... that in a little while, he wouldn't be able to read so quietly anymore. In just a short while, Jiang Ciche looked outside three times.
"Could it be... that it was arranged in advance?"
Leng Rongyue lowered her voice and asked Xiao Jingyu.
"It seems... that's right!"
Xiao Jingyu frowned and nodded.
Before long, Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu heard the commotion...
"Thud..." A very slight sound, probably someone was testing the waters.
The small stone landed, and there was no sound in the yard.
The hidden guards in this courtyard have been drugged by Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu.
Xiao Jingyu and Leng Rongyue even speculated that... the hidden guards might have already received instructions from Jiang Ciche in advance!
Jiang Ciche's study is not a place where just anyone can approach and walk around!
The courtyard was spacious, and the sound of a small pebble did not disturb Jiang Ciche in the study.
It was precisely because of the hidden guards outside that Jiang Ciche was able to sit so confidently and boldly in the study.
Another small pebble was thrown into the yard...
Xiao Jingyu and Leng Rongyue, who were leaning over the roof, looked towards the east courtyard wall following the sound...
Just then, a round head popped out from the courtyard wall, peering furtively into the yard.
Then, a figure slowly climbed over the wall and into the courtyard. Although the sound when it landed was not loud, it was a far cry from the feeling of Xiao Jingyu's light, feather-like descent!
The man entered the courtyard, tiptoed over and opened the gate. A short, stocky figure squeezed through the door; judging by his build, it was none other than that beastly crown prince of the Eastern Wei Kingdom.
As Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu watched the two sneakily walk towards the study, they also heard something moving outside the door where the two had entered!
It seems there are spies from the Eastern Wei Kingdom in Jiang Ciche's residence!
The night was quiet, and the footsteps outside were not deliberately quiet. Jiang Ciche heard the footsteps, put down the book he had barely read a few words from beginning to end, and looked toward the door of the study.
There was still no polite knocking; the study door was suddenly pushed open.
The beastly crown prince of the Eastern Venezuelan country stepped in.
Jiang Ciche was taken aback, but quickly calmed himself down.
Jiang Ciche slowly stood up and stood behind the desk, looking at the Crown Prince of Dongwei who had barged in.
"Your Excellency, we...we agreed to meet tonight, so why...why did you bolt the gate?"
The Crown Prince of East Venezuela asked with a displeased expression.
"If His Highness the Crown Prince wishes to meet with me, why did he choose to meet outside instead of at my residence?"
Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu exchanged glances on the rooftop. It seemed they hadn't agreed on a location for their date.
Jiang Ciche wanted to meet outside the mansion, but the beastly Crown Prince of Dongwei insisted on meeting in the study of the Second Assistant Minister's residence!
Jiang Ciche was forced to accept the meeting, and felt frustrated, so he deliberately didn't open the courtyard gate!
A look of disdain flashed in both Leng Rongyue's and Xiao Jingyu's eyes...
If you truly have backbone, you won't secretly collude with foreign enemies and act as their lackey!
The beastly crown prince of Dongwei Kingdom didn't care whether Jiang Ciche was happy or not, or whether he was willing to receive him.
Without waiting for Jiang Ciche to offer him any courtesy, he walked to a large chair and sat down with his chest puffed out and belly protruding!
