His Peasant Wife: Yao Ling [Part 2]

Chapter 287: Nei Huang, Part 3&4

— PART 3

"Da Ge, what's so important that you have to come here by yourself?" Xiao Fang asked curiously.

She didn't bother to ask why did her brother know that she had arrived at Nei Huang...

Qi Hao already had his own intelligence network and she was pretty sure that he must have put a few of his people around her --- just for her safety and inquired about her from time to time.

"There were some movements in the capital... However, it suddenly ceased out of nowhere. It made our father and I feel that it was actually calm before the storm," Qi Hao said softly.

This matter had given him and their father a headache!

"What do you mean, Da Ge?" Lin Jian asked.

He couldn't grasp what Qi Hao was saying, thus, he asked in confusion.

Qi Hao looked at Lin Jian and wondered why he followed along with Xiao Fang and called him 'Da Ge'.

They had just known each other ah~! Thus, he didn't like being called 'Da Ge'.

Qi Hao furrowed his eyebrows, but he didn't refute Lin Jian at this moment.

There were some more urgent things that needed to be deal with.

When Qi Hao paid more attention to Lin Jian's behavior, he could see the infatuated look on the youngster's face when he was looking at his sister.

Qi Hao sneered at Lin Jian secretly when he knew that the latter had an ulterior motive...

'Hah!' Qi Hao thought to himself, 'It won't be easy to get his sister!'

He took note of Lin Jian and decided to make it hard for the man to pursue his sister!

Qi Hao decided to concentrate back to the matter at hands.

"At first, we didn't know what was wrong back then. However, I received Xiao Fang's letter about the Han Emperor's intention to get rid of many officials and we connected the dots. We had made some preparations, but just like I said, the movement suddenly ceased and it made us feel more uncomfortable," Qi Hao said.

Qi Hao was good at analyzing things and making plans, thus, once something wasn't right, he was able to catch it even though it was only a small movement.

This was taught by his father and the reason why his father was able to climb into such a high rank.

However, even a clever person wouldn't be able to guess that his own monarch would try to kill the officials that were loyal to him!

This was just ridiculous! If it wasn't Xiao Fang who told him, he wouldn't believe it!

He knew that Xiao Fang wouldn't play around with such important matters.

Yao Ying said, "Was it because of the rumor?"

Qi Hao nodded his head. "I had tried to find out more about it and the Han Emperor didn't stop his plan, but he was waiting at the right moment. And we found information by chance... He wanted to use Xiao Fang for something!"

"What do you mean?" Yao Ling asked in surprise.

If the Han Emperor was specifically targetting Xiao Fang, it would be dangerous!

"The Han Emperor is looking for Xiao Fang because he already knew that the blood letter was on her. He secretly gave the order to capture you once you step foot inside the capital. You can't go back now!" Qi Hao said worriedly.

"Father sent me here to warn you first!"

Xiao Fang's face turned pale when she heard this.
