Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Truth Is Revealed

"Knock" There was a knock on Ji Xiao's door.

"Who?" Ji Xiao hurriedly got out of Si Yuanchen's arms, and when the two of them hugged him, he didn't feel anything, and as soon as he calmed down, he felt a little shy, and his face was covered with a little blush.

"Ji Gongzi, the slave maid came on the order of her mother-in-law, may I ask Gongzi, is Si Gongzi here with Gongzi?" Outside, there was a servant girl sent by Meng Po, who came to spread the word.

As soon as Ji Xiao heard that it was the person sent by Meng Po, he remembered that the person in front of him had promised Meng Po to marry her slave girl Erong. This Meng Po was really anxious, so she sent someone to inquire.

As soon as he thought of this, Ji Xiao became angry. The person in front of him usually looks very smart, why is he not calm when he encounters something related to him?!

Thinking that he was also concerned about himself, Ji Xiao was not only secretly happy in his heart. However, on the bright side, he still put that face on the face, Nunu mouth, and signaled to Si Yuanchen that he would solve the matter of recruiting him back.

Glancing at the person he had put on the tip of his heart, Si Yuanchen withdrew the hand that was originally stretched out because he was holding Ji Xiao, stood up, calmly dusted off the ashes on his clothes, and said loudly to the door: "I'm here." What's the matter? ”

"Si Gongzi, the slave maid came to ask the son to discuss the marriage with Miss Erong on the order of her mother-in-law." The voice of the servant girl came from outside the door.

As soon as he heard this, Ji Xiao began to raise his eyebrows, and regardless of the helplessness on Si Yuanchen's face, he turned around and walked to the side of the bed and threw herself into the futon like an angry little daughter-in-law, sulking there by himself.

Si Yuanchen looked at his angry behavior, shook his head as if helpless, and rushed out of the door to respond: "It just so happens that I also have something to discuss with Meng Po." I would like to ask the girl to wait outside for a while, and then she will clean up and come. As he spoke, he walked to the bed.

When Si Yuanchen walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, he stretched out his hand and rubbed Ji Xiaolu's head vigorously outside the quilt, full of comfort. "I'll go and explain to that Meng Po, you are here alone, be good, don't make any temper." Si Yuanchen softly coaxed his family's little overlord. What's the solution? In Si Yuanchen's opinion, his sweetheart should be spoiled. There was an unhappy snort from under the quilt, which was a response. Si Yuanchen smiled and got up to prepare for a showdown with Meng Po.

Following the maidservant outside the door, Si Yuanchen came to see Meng Po for the third time.

"Come, sit, let's discuss your wedding with Erong." Meng Po beckoned Si Yuanchen to come over.

"Mother Meng, I came here to tell you that I'm sorry, I can't marry Miss Erong." Si Yuanchen didn't bend around, and directly picked out the intention.

"That son's poison, don't you want to solve it?" Meng Po opened her mouth quietly, she was not in a hurry, anyway, it was not her who was poisoned. It's just that I didn't expect that Si Yuanchen was still with Ji Xiao in the end. has seen so much of the rights and wrongs in the world, if she can't see through the hearts of the two of them, then she is stupid. Sure enough, the two people who are destined will be together no matter what. Meng Po smiled a little vicissitudes, waiting for an answer.

"I want to understand, but I can't go against my own heart and my lover's affection." After that, he sighed, turned around and left without further excuses.

Ji Xiao is in the room

Si Yuanchen pushed the door in.

"Yo, look, who is this? Isn't this the bridegroom's officer, why did you come to me? Ji Xiao got up from the bed, leaned against the wall and hugged his chest and squinted at Si Yuanchen. This man, just knowing that he was angry, rubbed his head and left?!

"Don't make a fuss." Si Yuanchen frowned slightly, he liked Ji Xiao to talk like this, and when he smelled it, there seemed to be a sour smell in the air, so he quipped: "What, Ji Gongzi is jealous?" As he spoke, he reached out to pinch Ji Xiao's face. It seems that even if you are cold and indifferent, when you meet someone you like, you will become naïve.

"Not really." Ji Xiao opened Si Yuanchen's outstretched hand, turned around, and snorted. After humming, I was surprised, how do I feel that I have a tsundere attribute?

"Ji Xiao, Brother Si, King Yucheng has sent someone over, please go back. He said that he was asking how the case was going. Yuan Li came in from outside the door, and when he saw that the two were so close, he couldn't help but feel as if his head was glowing, and it was still the kind of light bulb with a strong wattage.

"By the way, we don't solve this poison anyway, but the case of King Yucheng's daughter has not been solved yet, and there are not many days left for your god's oath, we need to end this matter as soon as possible, so it's better to pack up and leave now." Ji Xiao, although he occasionally has convulsions, he still has a sense of responsibility when it comes to business.

"Okay." Si Yuanchen said, "Let's go." ”

"I'm with you." Yuan Li responded.

There was no delay in this matter, and the three of them immediately prepared to leave, and by the way, they returned the Demon Ling Grass they had taken from Du Zicheng to the group of ghosts.

In order to prevent Meng Po from blocking them, or Si Yuanchen, the three of them directly left a note on the table, chatted about their gratitude for the past few days, and left.

Along the way, what was different from when he came was that Si Yuanchen no longer slowly followed Ji Xiao, but stepped forward and paralleled Ji Xiao, quietly bringing Ji Xiao into his own protection.

His move made Yuan Li, who was next to him, feel that his wattage had increased by a few thousand watts, which was a lot of pressure.

"Let's go to the slums of the underworld first, shall we? Maybe you can find some clues. Ji Xiao raised his head and asked Si Yuanchen's opinion.

The change in the relationship between the two in an instant made Ji Xiao a little uncomfortable, and Xu had not yet adapted. As he spoke, he quietly retreated a few centimeters to the side, trying to widen the distance between him and Si Yuanchen.

"Hmm." Pulling Ji Xiao back to his side, Si Yuanchen responded.

"Hey, hey, hey......" Ji Xiao smirked. For a while, he forgot that the case had not been solved, and indulged in the face of his own man. The immortal god that he Ji Xiao fancied was really outstanding. Si Yuanchen is plainly dressed like snow, and his bearing is dusty, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the best-looking man Ji Xiao has ever seen in his life.

Si Yuanchen and Ji Xiao walked side by side, Yuan Li followed a few steps behind them, and the three of them walked in the direction of the River Styx.

A few miles away from the slums, the three of them achieved an unexpected harvest.

"Brother Zhu, you have been really developed recently!" A man dressed in a patch conversed with a gorgeously dressed man next to him on the side of the road.

"Eh, Ah Fu, where are you talking about? Haven't I always been like this? The man seemed unwilling to be known about his past, so he quickly denied it.

The two of them didn't have a loud voice, but when they met Si Yuanchen, who had 10,000 years of skill, and Ji Xiao, the owner of the Divine Sword, this conversation was as clear as it was spoken in front of several people.

The three of them had no intention of eavesdropping on others, but they didn't want to ......

"Don't pretend to be you, everyone used to stay in this poor place together, but after you got along with the daughter of Yuan Zhao and the king of Yucheng, your eyes were red, and you didn't have to come forward to curry favor with Li Xue'er, so you would have the wealth you have today." The man called Ah Fu said to the man in fancy clothes. He really can't get used to this Zhu Chong. I don't know what happened, this person went from rags to brocade?!

"Hey, hey, how do you talk!" Zhu Chong was exposed by someone, and his face began to become unkind.

When Ji Xiao and the three of them spit out the three words King Yucheng from Ah Fu's mouth, they began to pay attention to the two, but they didn't want to get more information from them.

Si Yuanchen's face changed slightly, expecting that this person was not simple, and estimated that they were inseparable from Li Xue'er's death.

"I heard that on that day, you followed that Yuan Zhao to meet that Li Xue'er, how is it, is Li Xue'er beautiful?" Ah Fu saw that Zhu Chong's face was not good, and he felt that he didn't want others to listen to it, so he leaned into his ear and whispered, asking with a smile. People like them, if they don't have a little brain, I'm afraid they will not be able to get ahead in this life.

Zhu Chong is smarter than Ah Fu, and he didn't get it, so it's better to ask.

Zhu Chong saw that this Ah Fu was like this, so he also began to show off, and he didn't know if it was true or not, and said: "You don't know the daughter of the King of Yucheng, that is called a beautiful flower, I followed Yuan Zhao to hide in the corner of the Yucheng Palace, and after Yuan Zhao left, he slipped into the room and saw that Li Xue'er, hey, I have to say, Yuan Zhao's stinky boy Yanfu is really not shallow, he is nothing more than a book before his death, and he can also make the eldest lady favor him."

But I didn't expect that Li Xue'er was a woman with a stubborn personality, and there was no way, so I had to ......" That Zhu Chong's face was miami, so that Ji Xiao, who was paying attention to them on the side, saw it, and he was angry. This brute, it must have been something he did to Li Xue'er, and Li Xue'er died!

"You scumbag, where are you going!" Ji Xiao took out his sword and stepped forward, knowing that this person was not much related to Li Xue'er's case, and it was more likely to have a direct relationship, so he thought about bringing this person back to see King Yucheng.

"Who are you, how can you casually stab people with a sword!" Zhu Chong saw a sword coming straight at him from nowhere, and he was so frightened that he retreated a few steps and hurriedly dodged, so he pointed at Ji Xiao and scolded.

"Ji Xiao." Si Yuanchen spoke, "You don't have to say more to him. Si Yuanchen has always been calm, not as impulsive and reckless as Ji Xiao, at this time, he already understood that the person in front of him was probably the real murderer of Li Xue'er, and now, just take him back to see the king of the underworld.

Ji Xiao heard Si Yuanchen speak, so he directly found a rope and forcibly tied Zhu Chong. Zhu Chongyuan was just an ordinary ghost in the slum, he couldn't beat Ji Xiao, and seeing that the other two men beside Ji Xiao didn't look like easy to mess with, he also knew that he had no hope of escaping, so he gave up the struggle and only lamented that he shouldn't have gone out today. And that Ah Fu disappeared as early as when Ji Xiao drew his sword.

The three of them accidentally caught the real murderer on the way back to see King Yucheng, which they never expected.

On the way, Ji Xiao put the Suixin sword against Zhu Chong's neck and forced him to tell him about Li Xue'er.

It turned out that Zhu Chongyan envied Yuanzhao and was favored by Li Xueer, although the two were not above board, but how could Li Xueer make her lover's life so difficult, so she secretly helped Yuanzhao. Zhu Chong saw Yuan Zhao's eyes red like this, and quietly followed Yuan Zhao to Yucheng Wangfu that day, and when he saw Li Xue'er being so beautiful, he couldn't control his desire to force Li Xue'er for a while. Li Xue'er is also a stubborn master, and he refuses to obey, so he killed the killer, stole the inconspicuous property in Li Xue'er's room and fled. I didn't expect to meet Si Yuanchen and Ji Xiao and others today, it was really a miscalculation.
