When someone fetched water, he wrung the handkerchief and was about to wipe it, but another hand snatched the handkerchief and wiped it on its own.

Huo Zhen wiped his hands quickly.

Liu Menglan checked his wounds and dressed him, the blood stains on his arms had been almost cleaned, and after twisting the handkerchief twice, Liu Menglan had already bandaged him.

In this way, Huo never talked to Liu Menglan during the whole process.

Shen Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to ask him about his progress, and then was about to say goodbye, but he rolled up his sleeves and said, "I can't leave yet." ”

"Huh?" Shen Yan didn't know what he meant.

He pursed his lips amusedly.

Su Ri only felt that the world was boring, and there was nothing to rejoice about. Coupled with the military criminals who work in the prison all day long, there is really nothing to smile.

But every time I see her stunned, I think it's funny.

"Sit here and wait for me, and go back together when I'm done. ”

"Then how can it be done?" Shen Yan didn't agree, "Then I will not return at night!"

Shen Xidu has never acted so recklessly, does she dare to go past her?

"Why don't you go home at night?" Huo Zhen said, "Didn't your sister ask you to find out about the progress? There will definitely be news later." ”

After speaking, he looked at Liu Menglan: "You go back first." ”

Liu Menglan shouted in her heart for great goodness, where can she take care of Shen Yan?

Shen Yan subconsciously refused. But when I saw his arm resting on the table with a slight stiffness, I didn't feel my will waver.

People like him were also injured, so it can be seen that Fang Cai didn't know how dangerous it was, and he couldn't help but say: "Are those people on the other side very powerful?"

Huo Ji only looked at her with beautiful dark eyes: "Are you caring about me?"

Shen Yan's face was hot, and she retracted her body that leaned forward at some point.

He really embarrassed her to say this.

Ji said that she had the appearance of a vice-vixen since she was a child, and she may have been a little broken when Ji was there, but she was not afraid of her.

But in the past year, she has followed Shen Xi to silently restrain her behavior, but he still thinks about her like this, is she really cheap in her bones?

Discouraged and embarrassed for a while, he didn't make a sound.

Huo Zhen just confirmed it in passing, but she was so sensitive, so he looked at her faintly.

She has a charming appearance, which is admittedly inferior to Shen Xi, but that charm is natural, but under her forced restraint, it is not revealed.

His parents were lost when he was a child, until he met King Yan, and then sent him to the Wei family, and Fang and Helan began a stable and prosperous life together.

He has no hatred, no opponents, and focuses on errands, and has become a cool official who stands alone in torture.

Except for official duties, life is smooth and boring.

When he saw Shen Yan for the first time, he also felt that she was no different from ordinary ladies, but because of Shen Xi's identity, he put down his body and teased her.

It wasn't until I saw her soft and rigid side later that I was quite impressed.

However, this is nothing, taking her to the fire to roast taro is boring, second, it is still with two points of teasing, and third, it is curious.

But it wasn't until Fang, in the midst of a night of filth, that he suddenly saw her delicate and weak on the shore, and he clearly noticed that his heart trembled.

Yan Wang went to dinner every day, and often brought him and Helan Chen, the tricks on the Fengyue field, he was first novel, and then he also saw it thoroughly.

Occasionally, I went to a banquet on behalf of the palace, and occasionally the girls were brave enough to be courteous, and many of them were also good-looking, and they always felt that they were not all the way.

So I thought that even if the person I picked in the future would not be the kind of person who could stand out and be in charge everywhere, he must also be a flamboyant general.

This weak rabbit, which stretched out its paws from time to time, really surprised him, and jumped into his heart at once.

"You treat me as your own brother. He expected that he had frightened her, so he said, "There is nothing wrong with caring for your brother." ”

Shen Yan thought of her own brother and was a little indifferent.

But inexplicably, hearing his explanation, Fang Cai's embarrassment disappeared a little, maybe he didn't mean to be so frivolous.

She also doesn't want outsiders to think she's pretentious.

Now that Liu Menglan is gone, then she will stay and wait for Xiao Huai's news, and save Shen Xi from having to run back and forth.

"My lord, there's a situation!"

At this moment, a guard arrived under the curtain: "A group of corpses were found on the river beach five miles downstream from the docks, the number of them is nineteen, which is exactly the number of assassins who escaped from the previous raid!"

Huo Yan's mind was still on Shen Yan a moment ago, but at this moment, the cold air in his body had suddenly condensed, and he lifted the long sword and went out!

Shen Yan also immediately put aside the cranky thoughts in her head and followed.

Liu Menglan returned to Shen's house, and Shen Xi was still in Shen Ruopu's study.

When I returned to the Xiangxiang Courtyard and heard him say that Huo Yan had left Shen Yan, his heart was good, he stayed to pay attention to it, and with Huo Yan by his side, he would not be unable to protect a Shen Yan.

Thinking that there was nothing wrong, he sent Liu Menglan back.

Huo Zhen led people to the place where the body was found, and Yan Qin's people were already tightly guarding the river beach.

Shen Yan followed closely behind him.

Returning to this cold and emotionless atmosphere, she has no negative emotions, because no one will care about you and will notice your existence at the moment.

"Judging from the clothes on the corpse, it is indeed the same as the corpse left by the previous Lord and Lord Helan. The guard led Huo Zhen to him.

Huo Zhen squatted down, lit the torch, rolled up his sleeves and carefully examined the wounds on the corpse, facial features, hands and feet, and even his shoes.

Shen Yan saw that his right arm was injured and extremely inflexible, and the guards were all rough men, so she didn't notice his inconvenience, so she consciously stepped forward to help deliver some things.

He turned his head to look at her, "You're not afraid?"

She shook her head.

He paused and took the long sword from his waist that was in the way and gave it to her: "Help me hold this." ”

Shen Yan honestly stood up with his sword.

"The wound was deep and narrow, and it should have died from a sword wound. ”

It was not until he had gone through all the corpses that he got up, went to the river, washed his hands, and came back and said, "Judging by the shape, the murder weapon must be the same long sword they wielded.

"There was not much blood around the wound, it should have been washed by water, and the body was not fully armed, so it should have been attacked in the water and died. ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Yan Qin on the side: "Please ask Lord Yan to send someone to salvage this section of water, check carefully, and if you find the same weapon, be sure to remember to tell me the location." ”

Yan Qin hurriedly bowed his head and immediately explained to the sailors with good water characteristics to search the river.

Huo Zhen looked at the river with a solemn expression, but he didn't know what he was thinking.

Until another guard trotted over and said, "The prince has returned to the city! Please go back to the house after you are busy with the business at hand!"

Only then did he turn his head to look at the person who came, and then at Shen Yan who was standing behind him with a sword in his hand, and said, "Let's go." ”[.]
