As the night darkened, the lights were still lit in the case room of the government.

With a 'snap', Lin Yingxue threw the dossier she had just finished reading in front of her, and then she rubbed her eyes tiredly - this was no longer the first dossier she had read.

The government in Xuzhou is really bad, all the files are piled up randomly, and no one takes care of it at all, so when she wants to find the case file of the nameless male corpse of the year when Yu's son disappeared, she can only look for a needle in a haystack in the file room from afternoon to night.

Murong Xun heard the movement and glanced in the direction where Lin Yingxue was, only to see that Lin Yingxue did not apply powder, frowning lightly, and her face was floating with a girlish sorrow.

Such a pure and beautiful beauty is something he has never seen, because Lin Yingxue is always covered in thorns when facing him, and her body is full of defense, like a hedgehog that people can't get close to.

If one day she could put away all the thorns for him and lie meekly in his arms, it would be a wonderful thing...... As soon as such a thought came out of Murong Xun's mind, Murong Xun was taken aback-

How could this woman compromise with him, who was at odds with him and vowed to put him to death? Murong Xun laughed at himself and withdrew his gaze, but that thought was buried like a seed in an invisible place in his heart.

was busy until late at night, Lin Yingxue's eyelids became heavier, and she fell asleep on the table unconsciously, Murong Xun was also tired, so she couldn't help but close her eyes and began to close her eyes and recuperate.

After the two of them went to sleep, there was no sound in the room, and everything was silent, only the burning candle flame was still dancing happily.

In the middle of the night, Murong Xun was awakened by a puff of smoke, he opened his eyes suddenly, and his eyes as sharp as an eagle's falcon scanned the room and quickly understood what was going on.

"It's on fire, let's go!" He almost immediately rushed to Lin Yingxue's side and lifted Lin Yingxue up from his chair.

"Ahem......" Lin Yingxue, who was woken up, was still a little dazed, "What's wrong?" She asked with some puzzlement as she was forced to walk outside with Murong Xun.

However, Murong Xun didn't have time to explain, so he found a place where the fire was weak and rushed out with Lin Yingxue.

It wasn't until after leaving the file room that Lin Yingxue found out that the file room had caught fire at some point, Xu had been poured oil, and in the blink of an eye, the entire file room became a big fireball, Lin Yingxue didn't dare to imagine if they had taken a step at night just now, and she would still be able to stand here.

"This ......" Watching the tongue of fire that rushed to the sky light up the entire night sky, illuminating the surrounding area as bright as day, Lin Yingxue only felt a little afraid in her heart.

"Someone, it's on fire! Hurry up and put out the fire! At this time, the officers and soldiers in the government and the people living around them sensed that something was wrong and came out to put out the fire, but the files were all flammable paper, and even if the fire was extinguished, those files would not be saved.

"I'll leave it to them here, and Miss Fifth will go back and rest first." Murong Xun looked at Lin Yingxue's blackened clothes that were burned by the tongue of fire, and said lightly.

However, Lin Yingxue didn't respond to Murong Xun, she stood there dumbfounded and didn't know what she thought, and suddenly her expression changed, "Oh no, mother-in-law is in danger!" ”

Lin Yingxue suddenly thought of the old woman who had given them clues during the day, since Rusheng and Qionglou had already attacked them, that old woman ......

Lin Yingxue had a bad premonition in her heart, she lifted her skirt and turned around and ran quickly towards the door without even saying hello.

Seeing this, Murong Xun on the side hesitated for a moment and quickly followed.

Running all the way to the old woman's door, Lin Yingxue didn't even bother to breathe and was about to step forward and knock on the door, but as soon as she raised her hand, the door opened by itself, and a faint smell of blood wafted out of the house along the cracks, and Lin Yingxue's heart sank to the bottom.

She hesitated for a moment before walking briskly in, and when she entered the room, she saw the old woman she had only seen during the day, and now she had fallen straight in the front yard with lifeless eyes.

'Plop', Lin Yingxue sat on the ground, her face full of exhaustion.

"We can't go any further, we are in the dark, and any further investigation will only implicate more innocent people." Moreover, all the files of the government were destroyed, and they could not find the body of Yu's son, so naturally there was no way to prove that Meng Yi was an impostor.

Murong Xun obviously thought of this, and he hesitated for a moment before nodding in response: "What you said is reasonable, I still have some things to do in Xuzhou, and we will leave the day after tomorrow." ”

Lin Yingxue was slightly surprised that Murong Xun agreed so easily, after all, in her cognition, Murong Xun was not the kind of person who would care about the life and death of others, so the only explanation why Murong Xun agreed so simply was that Murong Xun didn't want her to stay in Xuzhou for a long time.

And Murong Xun also said that he had some personal matters to do, and he would not be able to leave until the day after tomorrow, could he ...... Lin Yingxue quickly thought of Lin Zhengjie.

No wonder Murong Xun was afraid that she would stay in Xuzhou for a long time, I was afraid that she would find out that Lin Zhengjie was also in Xuzhou...... Lin Yingxue secretly sneered in her heart, but her face answered quietly.

After a month, Lin Yingxue and Murong Xun returned to the imperial city smoothly, and to Lin Yingxue's surprise, Murong Jun was actually waiting for her at the city gate.

"A-kun!" As soon as Lin Yingxue jumped off the carriage, she was tightly embraced by Murong Jun before she could salute.

Lin Yingxue was moved in her heart, and at the same time remembered that there were many people passing by and officers and soldiers guarding the city, so she was a little embarrassed.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Lin Yingxue patted Murong Xun on the back and broke free from Murong Xun's embrace.

Murong Xun frowned and stared at Lin Yingxue, as if he had thousands of questions to ask, but in the end, he only turned into one sentence: "Let's go, I'll take you home." ”

"The case on the county lord of Yuhui has not been completely sorted out, I think the county lord of Yuhui needs to go back to the criminal department with me first." Murong Xun's voice interjected coldly.

A trace of displeasure flashed on Murong Jun's face when he heard this, and he said coldly: "Don't bother with the fifth brother, I have already dealt with Yingxue's case." ”

- Zhou Qingshu was escorted back long before they came back, and it was not a big deal for Murong Jun to handle the case in advance.

Murong Xun glanced at the two of them with deep affection, and for some reason felt a little uncomfortable.

"Yes, the third brother is really attentive to his fiancée." With that, Murong Xun rode over to the two.

Murong Jun glanced deeply at Murong Xun's back, and while getting into the carriage with Lin Yingxue again, he said with concern: "Is he embarrassed for you outside?" ”

"Nope." Lin Yingxue shook her head and leaned on her beloved's shoulder like an ordinary woman, "I'm all right outside, but it's a pity that I couldn't find evidence to bring down King Yi on this trip to Xuzhou." ”

"You shouldn't have to worry about this in the first place." Murong Jun grabbed Lin Yingxue's hand and kissed it on the lips, before continuing: "Your accident this time really worries me, no matter what you do in the future, you must inform me in advance." ”

Murong Jun didn't use a consultative tone, but more like some kind of order.

Lin Yingxue smiled and responded willingly: "Yes, Third Highness, the little girl knows." ”

Lin Yingxue blinked, her face revealed girlish innocence, Murong Jun saw this, where could he still be serious?

He lightly imprinted a kiss on Lin Yingxue's forehead, and then the two of them were tired of it for a while, and then Lin Yingxue got down to business, "By the way, I didn't have nothing to gain from this trip to Xuzhou this time." ”

"Huh? What's the catch? Murong Jun didn't seem to care about what Lin Yingxue was going to say at all, he stared at Lin Yingxue intently, as if he was staring at a lost treasure.

Lin Yingxue was a little embarrassed to be stared at by Murong Jun, so she simply turned her head and didn't look at the people around her, but just said to herself: "I found Lin Zhengjie's trace in Xuzhou." ”

"Lin Zhengjie?" Murong Jun's hand moved, he let go of Lin Yingxue's hair, and finally had a serious look on his face, "You told me before that you were going to see him in the cell, but then I was busy with affairs and forgot about it for a while." What's the matter, but the fifth brother stole the beams and changed the pillars and rescued the people? ”

"Hmm." Lin Yingxue nodded, "But Murong Xun won't be stupid enough to do it himself, he should let the next minister named Zhang Quan do it...... Although this crime cannot be directly placed on Murong Xun's head, this is also a handle for Murong Xun. ”

"Well, I know, I will arrange someone to go to Xuzhou to spy on Lin Zhengjie." Murong Jun touched Lin Yingxue's head and was about to say something, but at this time, the carriage stopped.

"So soon?" Lin Yingxue was slightly surprised, she opened the curtain and looked, but it was not the house she was familiar with, "How did you get here?" ”

Lin Yingxue turned her head to look at Murong Jun - the place where the coachman stopped was not somewhere else, it was the Three Princes' Mansion.

"Get out of the car and you'll know." As Murong Jun spoke, he got out of the carriage first and stretched out his hand to Lin Yingxue.

Lin Yingxue jumped out of the carriage with Murong Jun's hand, and the two entered the mansion together.

"Alright, close your eyes." I don't know what kind of pass Murong Jun is selling, just after the backyard, Murong Jun told Lin Yingxue to close her eyes.

Lin Yingxue glanced at Murong Jun with some confusion, "What's wrong?" ”

"Just do it." Murong Jun raised the corners of his mouth, and the smile on his face seemed to be a little brighter than the sunlight around him.

Lin Yingxue saw that she couldn't resist Murong Jun, so she had to close her eyes obediently.

With her palms clasped, Lin Yingxue followed Murong Jun's steps with confidence, not at all afraid of the darkness in front of her.

After a while, Murong Jun stopped, "You can open it." ”

Lin Yingxue opened her eyes as she said, and the scene in front of her suddenly brightened her eyes.
