Chapter 1497: Truth

Editor: Henyee Translations

But… how could Qiu He do this?

“Why?”

How dare she?

Whose idea was this?

Qiao Wei felt a sudden wave of terror, unable to comprehend what she had done to warrant such treatment.

...

Seeing her dazed and confused state, Lixia compassionately explained, “Miss Qiao, this may seem perplexing. Why would Qiu He want to end your life? The answer lies in the strategic implications. Your demise here in the relay station would cast our lord and madams as the prime suspects. They would be defenseless.”

“As an officially registered escort, your death would provide ample grounds for accusation. Our lord would find himself trapped, unable to escape prison. His reputation might be tarnished, and he could even face mortal danger.”

“In the grand scheme, you’re just a pawn—a pawn strategically employed to target our lord and madam.”

Qiao Wei collapsed to the ground, a thud resonating through the room. All vitality seemed drained from her, her face drained of color as she stared ahead with vacant eyes. “Impossible, this is impossible…”

She protested, but the chill in her heart grew with each passing moment.

She wasn’t naive. Many things became clear with a bit of thought!

The rift between her and Qiao Xuan was no secret, and the longstanding grudge between the Qiao Family and Qiao Xuan was well-known. The ongoing conflict with Qiao Xuan was a public spectacle, yet everyone chose to turn a blind eye.

Recalling the heated argument with Qiao Xuan today, she realized Qiu He had deliberately fueled the flames with provocative words. Anger clouded her judgment, prompting her to intervene and stop Qiao Xuan from further quarreling.

It was also Qiu He’s idea to skip today’s banquet and deliberately stir up trouble for them…

But after the events that unfolded today, culminating in her being poisoned to death, did most people assume Qiao Xuan was the culprit seeking revenge?

Qiao Xuan’s audacity stemmed from the backing of Shao Yunduan, the Crown Prince’s favored minister. With such support, she recklessly pursued her agenda without concern for consequences.

Lixia was correct. Shao Yunduan was the primary target of this intricate plot. Qiao Wei was merely a pawn—a pawn meant to be sacrificed.

Escaping suspicion for murder was a formidable challenge for Shao Yunduan, given the tangled web of old and new grievances, coupled with the encouragement provided.

The orchestrator behind the scenes wouldn’t allow him an easy escape.

It made sense…

Qiao Wei bit her lip so hard it almost bled. It dawned on her why someone had sought her out, compelling her to join the escort team.

The incentives presented were tempting. They wanted her to keep tabs on Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan, stirring up trouble to eliminate them. In return, a life of wealth awaited her!

Even though the person’s identity seeking her out wasn’t explicitly confirmed, the unmistakable hints led her to believe it was the Fourth Prince.

She placed unwavering trust in the Fourth Prince’s capabilities, relying on his assurance without doubt.

Little did she know that this was not a path to a marriage alliance but an irreversible journey.

No wonder Qiu He remained silent throughout the journey. She casually and indifferently brushed him off when she couldn’t dissuade him any longer, knowing it was a path of no return.
