Three Kingdoms: I, the Emperor of Wei, am loyal and pure!

Seeing the jade belt being caught by Cao Xiu, Ji Ping's heart instantly rose to his throat. After all, there was a huge secret hidden in this jade belt.

Once the imperial edict hidden in it was discovered by Cao Xiu, it would cause a great uproar in Xudu City.

Not only would Ji Ping and his entire family be killed, but even the safety of the emperor in the palace would be affected.

But on the surface, Ji Ping did not show such worry, because he knew that the more panicked he was at this time, the easier it would be for people to detect~clues.

Cao Xiu, who was standing opposite, glanced at Ji Ping and found that Ji Ping's face was normal. Then he held up the jade belt in front of him and looked at it carefully: "Mr. Ji Ping, can you tell me why the emperor gave you the jade belt?"

Cao Xiu's voice fell into Ji Ping's ears, making Ji Ping's thoughts turn rapidly. He subconsciously replied: "The emperor sympathized with me for going to the palace late at night and consulting for the emperor. It was very hard, so he specially gave me the jade belt to encourage me."

Cao Xiu nodded when he heard it, but there was still some doubt in his eyes. He smiled and said: "This is a gift from the emperor. It makes people greedy. I wonder if Mr. Ji Ping is willing to give up this jade belt and give it to me?"

Cao Xiu's words made Ji Ping's heart, which was about to fall, rise to his throat again.

This jade belt hides a shocking secret. How could he hand it over to Cao Xiu?

Besides, although Cao Xiu said that he coveted his jade belt, who knows if he had any doubts and wanted to study it carefully behind the scenes? .

If he found out, the secret in the jade belt would bring disaster.

So Ji Ping subconsciously wanted to refuse, but then he thought that if he refused rashly, it would appear more suspicious and would cause Cao Xiu's distrust.

Besides, Cao Xiu just said that this jade belt was a gift from the emperor, so Cao Xiu should understand that it is unreasonable for others to take the gift from the emperor.

Even if Ji Ping was willing to give it, if Cao Xiu accepted it, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor and he would be impeached.

So after some analysis, Ji Ping thought that Cao Xiu was testing him, so he pretended to be generous and said: "Since General Cao likes it, I will give this jade belt to the general. As the saying goes, a horse is suitable for a hero, and the same is true for a precious sword and a jade belt. With the hard work of guarding the palace every day and night, the general deserves this jade belt."

·· ··········Please give me flowers···· ·······

Seeing Ji Ping say this, Cao Xiu smiled faintly, then waved his hand and said: "I was just joking with Mr. Ji Ping. This is a gift from the emperor to you. How can Cao Xiu steal your love?"

While saying this, Cao Xiu threw the jade belt back to Ji Ping's hand.

... ... 0

Until this moment, Ji Ping finally put his heart back into his stomach, and was glad that he had made the right bet just now.

He put the jade belt in his hand solemnly close to his body, and then he bowed to Cao Xiu and said: "In this case, I will take my leave. General Cao has worked hard."

"Mr. Ji Ping, take care."

After saying goodbye to each other, Ji Ping finally left the palace full of dangers and boarded his carriage.

The first thing Ji Ping did when he entered the carriage was to breathe heavily and wipe the cold sweat that almost seeped out of his forehead.

It was really a close call just now...

Just a thought difference, Ji Ping might be exposed, and even implicate the emperor... 勺.
