"I see," Shen Yuexi nodded suddenly, "Chen Lingxiu doesn't dare to tell the truth, then I can rest assured." ”

"Only the dead can be reassuring." Unexpectedly, Zhao Zheng said quietly.

Shen Yuexi's heart sank, "Seventh Master, what do you mean?" ”

"Before, I just didn't know the details of her entry into the palace, and I was afraid of getting into trouble, but now that I know the truth, I can rest assured that I can solve her, and I only think that He Chunlian is dead, and the He family will not lift their hole cards." Zhao Zheng whispered, his face as usual.

Shen Yuexi put down her chopsticks and lost her appetite for eating. However, she didn't say a word.

"Originally, I didn't want to tell you about this, but I was afraid that you would often worry about it, so it was better to tell you, and let you feel completely at ease, Chen Lingxiu will no longer exist." Zhao Zheng said frankly.

Shen Yuexi was still silent.

"Don't think too much about it, let's eat." Zhao Zheng said to Shen Yuexi.

He was calm from beginning to end, as if what he was discussing with Shen Yuexi at the moment was not the issue of a person's death.

"I killed Chen Lingxiu." Shen Yuexi sighed, she didn't really want this kind of result.

"If she doesn't die, maybe one day you will die." Zhao Zheng also put down his chopsticks, "So you don't have to blame yourself too much." ”

Shen Yuexi was still speechless, she looked at Zhao Zheng's calm face, and knew that this man was ruthless and silent.

"Have you ever killed someone before?" Shen Yuexi asked.

The corners of Zhao Zheng's mouth moved slightly, and then slowly replied: "Killed." ”

"What does it feel like to kill someone?"

“…… Nothing to feel. Zhao Zheng's voice was cold and indifferent.

I really don't feel anything, it's all the people who assassinated him, his enemies, if he doesn't kill them, he will be the ones who die.

Hearing such an answer, Shen Yuexi didn't say anything anymore. Lowering his eyes, looking at the meal in front of him, he was silent.

"In the afternoon, I'll take you to the chess club?" Zhao Zheng saw that Shen Yuexi was depressed, so he proposed.

"Why don't you take me to Yunyou Temple and confess my sins in front of the Buddha." Shen Yuexi said.

"It's fine." Zhao Zheng didn't persuade Shen Yuexi anymore, and happily agreed.

There was no appetite left and right, and before lunch was over, Zhao Zheng took Shen Yuexi out of the house.

The carriage passed through the streets of the capital, went out of the city gate, and went all the way to Yunyou Temple. Shen Yuexi lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the open scenery outside wordlessly.

Behind the carriage, not far away, someone followed them from the first time out of the city, until the carriage turned to the fork in the temple, and the man stopped, looking thoughtfully in the direction where the carriage had disappeared.

Huineng didn't expect Zhao Zheng to come suddenly, and with Shen Yuexi, he stepped forward, greeted Zhao Zheng, and then led Zhao Zheng to the backyard meditation room.

"Yuexi wants to come and worship the Buddha." Zhao Zheng shouted to Huineng.

Oh. Huineng bowed slightly, and walked towards the main hall with Zhao Zheng and Shen Yuexi.

In the hall of the Great Hero, a statue of the Buddha towers in the middle, the Buddha's eyes are slightly closed, and the corners of his mouth are unpredictable.

Shen Yuexi looked up for a while, then knelt on the futon in front of the Buddha, folded his hands, and closed his eyes.

Huineng looked at Zhao Zheng on the side, and Shen Yuexi suddenly wanted to come to worship the Buddha, there must be some reason. But Zhao Zheng's gaze was always on Shen Yuexi, and he didn't receive Huineng's gaze.

Shen Yuexi knelt down for a long time, and she said a long word to the Buddha in her heart.

"I even confessed my future sins in front of the Buddha." After Shen Yuexi got up, she turned her head and said to Zhao Zheng and Huineng.

Zhao Zheng wanted to ask Shen Yuexi what her sins could be in the future, but he didn't ask, who could predict what would happen in the future?

After worshiping the Buddha, the three of them walked out of the main hall, Shen Yuexi's foot just stepped out of the high threshold of the main hall, and an arrow flew from the left front, Zhao Zheng and Huineng stretched out their hands at the same time, one held the arrow, the other held the tail of the arrow, they looked at each other, and then looked in the direction where the arrow flew at the same time.

A figure quickly disappeared into the woods outside the temple.

Hui Neng glanced at the monks standing outside, and the monks quickly jumped over the wall and chased after the figure where it had disappeared.

Zhao Zheng turned his head to look at Shen Yuexi, he was a little afraid, if he and Hui Neng hadn't shot in time just now, the arrow would have hit Shen Yuexi's chest, and he would definitely die.

Who wants to kill Shen Yuexi? The first answer that appeared in Zhao Zheng's mind was the emperor, and on the day of the chess game, the emperor also asked what would happen to him if Shen Yuexi died one day, and he didn't expect to do it so soon.

Shen Yuexi was shocked, stunned and looked at the direction where the arrow came from, she had just confessed her sins in front of the Buddha, and she couldn't imagine that she would almost lose her life in a single turn. I am still too kind, this world is originally so cruel, in front of their own interests, either you die or I die, compassion can't solve the problem.

But who was going to kill her? Emperor? An Yiru? Or did the Beihu send people to track them down? Or someone else she didn't know?

Shen Yuexi quickly analyzed these possibilities in her heart, but she had no clue.

"Let's go to the meditation room first, and when my disciples come back, we'll see if there's any clue." Huineng spoke.

Zhao Zheng nodded, then looked around, protected Shen Yuexi, and walked to the meditation room in the backyard.

"Seventh Prince, who do you think will do it?" Entering the meditation room, Huineng asked Zhao Zheng in a low voice.

Zhao Zheng thought about it and glanced at Huineng, but didn't say anything.

Huineng looked at Shen Yuexi, "Have you ever had a feud with anyone?" ”

"If you talk about feuds, the Seventh Princess should be the one who wants me to die the most," after a pause, Shen Yuexi said again, "Maybe there is still the emperor?" Maybe...... Is it a secret killer sent by Beihu? ”

Speaking of Beihu, Shen Yuexi's angina was painful, if this is the case, it seems that he is going to kill everything, does he really want to let himself die like that?

"It's easier to find someone to do it." Zhao Zheng said thoughtfully.

The emperor in Shen Yuexi's mouth or the killer from Beihu are both big troubles and dangers.

The situation was a bit serious, and the three of them didn't say anything anymore, waiting for the monks who had just gone out to chase people to come back and make plans.

After waiting for a while, some monks came back one after another to report that no trace of the person was found, and no clues were found.

Yunyou Temple is halfway up the mountain, there are many big mountains and trees, if the person sneaks into the woods just now and escapes along the mountain road, it is really like looking for a needle in a haystack, and it is difficult to find a trace.

Sure enough, several other monks came back, but they also found nothing.

After the monks left, Zhao Zheng took the arrow in his hand and looked at it carefully, it was a very ordinary arrow, the kind commonly used in the army, and it was not special.

Arrows, although they belong to military supplies, ordinary people are not allowed to make them privately, but as long as they are willing to pay money, this kind of arrow is easy to get, so just one arrow cannot guess the identity of the murderer.

"Master, can you help me find someone with extraordinary skills, I think that there will be such a person by Yuexi's side in the future." Then, Zhao Zheng pleaded with Huineng.

Although Zhao Zheng also knows many different worlds, but it is also because of his acquaintance that it is a little inconvenient to recruit to the palace to listen to errands, so please Huineng, Huineng often travels around and meets more masters, if he thinks it is a suitable person, Zhao is relieved.

Huineng nodded, "I'll help you contact you as soon as possible, and there will be news in the next few days." ”

Zhao Zheng nodded, "Then there will be Master Lao." ”

Huineng smiled, "Seventh Master, you're polite." ”

Zhao Zheng and Shen Yuexi left Yunyou Temple, all the way, the coachman was in front of the car, and Xiaoluzi sat in the back of the car, looking around, alert.

All the way was peaceful.

When he returned to the palace, the porter hurriedly greeted him, and after greeting Zhao Zheng and Shen Yuexi, he said: "Seventh prince, there are distinguished guests in the palace, and the thirteenth princess is here." ”

Zhao He? After Zhao Zheng was stunned, he suddenly remembered that when he was in the palace, he agreed to take Zhao He back to the palace when he left the palace, but because of Chen Lingxiu's affairs and the emperor's language hints when playing chess, Zhao Zheng was distracted and forgot Zhao He long ago.

Unexpectedly, Zhao He came by himself.

When I entered the palace, I saw Zhao He standing quietly in the palace looking at the scenery. and An Yiru and Hexi, who were by her side.

Hearing the movement, Zhao He turned his head and smiled at Zhao Zhengwei: "The seventh brother is forgetful, and he left the palace in a hurry, so I had to come by myself, hoping not to disturb the seventh brother." ”

Zhao He never called Zhao Zheng the seventh brother, she called him the seventh brother, which sounded more intimate.

"Blame me, I forgot you when I left the palace, I am naturally happy that you can come, how can I disturb it." Zhao Zheng said that he was happy, but the expression on his face was not half happy.

Shen Yuexi was almost assassinated just now, and now he just wants to find out who committed the murder, and he doesn't want anyone to disturb him at all.

"Then I'll stay in the house." With a cold smile on his face, Zhao He looked at Steward Yang on the side.

The thirteenth princess was a distinguished guest, and Steward Yang didn't dare to decide which courtyard to let her live in, just waiting for Zhao Zheng to come back and ask for an idea.

Steward Yang turned his head to look at Zhao Zheng, waiting for his orders.

"Pack up Heyuexuan and invite the thirteenth princess to move in." Zhao Zheng said to Steward Yang.

Steward Yang got his life and hurriedly went down to do it.

Then, no one spoke, and a large group of people stood there, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

"Heyuexuan wants to smoke incense, to build a few charcoal stoves, it is estimated that it will take some time, if the thirteenth princess does not dislike it, she can go to Ruyi Garden to rest first, drink tea and warm up." In the end, it was An Yiru who opened his mouth to break the deadlock.

An Yiru is still good at this, she has the consciousness of a housewife.

"No need," Zhao He didn't agree, she looked at Shen Yuexi, "I want to go to this girl's room to sit." ”

An Yiru's face turned dark, but it was not easy to attack, so she had to keep a smile on her face, but she gritted her teeth in her heart, when will this cheap woman who steals her limelight everywhere die?

"My house is simply furnished, there is nothing to be curious about, let's ask the thirteenth princess to go to the house of the seventh princess to rest for a while." Shen Yuexi had just shaken from the door of the Hades Palace, and he was not in any mood to entertain anyone at the moment.
