Chapter 18: I was wrong

The boy was dressed in a light blue round-necked robe, and his figure was slender.

The rain wet Shen Zhiyi's bun, and she felt embarrassed, lowered her head, and didn't dare to look at him directly.

Shen Silent raised his feet and stepped forward, and scolded in a low voice: "What are you doing standing stupidly?" ”

He frowned, his handsome face full of coldness.

"Are you waiting for me?" Shen Zhiyi put his hands around his chest, shivering from the cold.

The azure skirt clings to the girl's body, and she struggles to raise her delicate little face, revealing a small section of the full roundness of her chest.

Seeing this scene, Shen Silence's Adam's apple moved slightly, and he handed her the umbrella: "Take it." ”

He grew too tall, and Shen Zhiyi could only stand on tiptoe and hold the umbrella with great difficulty.

Shen Jing wrapped the cloak in his hand around her, and then took the umbrella again.

The way the two get along made Xia Zhu extremely surprised.

She inexplicably felt that something was not right with Shen Silence.

Such a hot, possessive gaze is obviously looking at a lover......

After sending people to Xichen Courtyard, Shen Silent stopped and asked in a light tone: "Why didn't you tell me when you went out today?" ”

"I'm sorry, I forgot."

The momentum on his body was too penetrating, and Shen Zhiyi was subconsciously a little scared.

Shen Silent grabbed the little girl's waist and pinched her soft flesh as if punishing: "If there is such a situation in the future, I will directly let people confine you up." ”

He has always been a good talker and never jokes.

"Don't do that, I know I'm wrong." The girl's eyes were slightly red, and her long eyelashes with water droplets trembled slightly.

As soon as she saw her crying, Shen Silent was reluctant to blame again: "Go bathe first, and I'll have someone come over to bring you ginger soup later." ”

The little girl is weak, and it is not good to get cold.

"Hmm." Shen Zhiyi pushed him away with great effort, and his delicate red lips opened slightly.

Shen Silent resisted the urge to kiss her and sent someone inside.

……

After bathing and changing, Shen Zhiyi felt a lot more refreshed.

Jiang Nian, who came back from outside, put the box in his hand on the table: "This is the ginger soup that the eldest prince asked the young lady to send." ”

Red dates are deliberately placed in the ginger soup, which smells sweet.

Shen Zhiyi only drank half a bowl before he felt panicked.

Because of the rain just now, her whole body was cold.

"Ahh

Jiang Nian, who was standing on the side, hurriedly picked up the blanket and put it on her: "Miss, the eldest prince came to the Xichen Courtyard this afternoon. ”

"Really?" Shen Zhiyi was a little surprised.

Jiang Nian twisted her hair with a handkerchief and said, "When I heard that the young lady was not there, the eldest prince looked angry. ”

When she thought of Shen Silence's cold eyes, she felt palpitations.

"Don't tell my mother about my brother coming here, so as not to worry her." Shen Zhiyi pursed his lips, and his little face was full of sorrow.

Seeing that his young lady was not in a good mood, Jiang Nian didn't say much: "The slave knows." ”

——

The next morning, the sun was shining.

Shen Shen watched the chess game in front of him, and reached out to drop a sunspot into it.

"Did she really just ask you to help investigate the officials who had been to these places?"

He raised an eyebrow, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Seeing that he was about to lose, Ji Yuan threw down the white son in his hand with self-abandonment: "Yes." ”

With that, he added.

"I don't think she looks like she's looking for a life-saver, there must be something else hidden in this."

Hearing this, Shen Silent sighed softly: "She is here to seek revenge." ”

"Why are you so concerned about this?" Ji Yuan supported his cheek with one hand, very puzzled.

Shen Si bent his fingertips slightly, and tapped the table: "The enemy my sister is looking for is the same as the one she is looking for." ”

"With your sister's delicate and weak appearance, can you still make enemies with others?" Ji Yuan laughed.

Seeing that he looked disapproving, Shen Silent said word by word: "Didn't you always want to investigate the case four years ago?" I suspect there is some connection between the two. ”

After thinking about it for a long time, Ji Yuan shook his head.

"It's impossible, most of the women involved in that case are dead, and your sister and that Xia girl didn't have an accident."

Shen Silent took a sip of tea: "Don't you think they have too many similarities?" ”

Four years ago, a large number of young women were brutally murdered.

Most of these people live in the three areas of Jiangnan, Longxi and Bianzhou......

"Also, why didn't I think of it!" Ji Yuan narrowed his eyes, and his expression suddenly became excited.

Some words can be said to the end, but Shen Jing didn't say more: "I still have something to do, so I'll go back first." ”

"Be careful on the road, don't send it slowly." Ji Yuan waved his hand at him and went straight to the pavilion library.

He spent the morning researching all the information about the murder of a young girl four years ago.

……

The other side.

Shen Zhiyi, who was just about to take a nap, was called up by Jiang Nian: "Miss, the people from Dali Temple let you go over with Miss Xia." ”

"Okay."

She thought that there were clues to the investigation, so she hurriedly rushed over with Xia Zhu.

Inside the hall.

Ji Yuan handed the paperwork in his hand to the two people in front of him.

Looking at their puzzled eyes, he spoke out unhurriedly: "As early as four years ago, there were many women in Jiangnan, Longxi, and Bianzhou who were abused and killed by the same person, is the person you are looking for the murderer in this murder?" ”

"That's right." Xia Zhu's eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth.

Facing her hateful gaze, Ji Yuan lowered his voice: "This matter you want to investigate is also a case that I have been trying to solve before. ”

As he spoke, he laid out a list and placed it on the table.

"During that time, there were five officials who went to these three places, and unfortunately, none of them were murderers."

Shen Zhiyi's eyes widened, and his expression was incredulous: "Master Ji, how is this possible?" ”

"If the murderer was one of the five of them, I wouldn't have gone unanswered." Ji Yuan sighed and said helplessly.

Even the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, who decided the case like a god, said so, and they had to believe the facts in front of them.

After being silent for a long time, Xia Zhu slowly spoke: "So, the real murderer may not be an official in the court. ”

"It's just my guess, it doesn't mean they're not suspicious."

Before finding the real clues, Ji Yuan didn't dare to guarantee it easily.

Shen Zhiyi was a little disappointed: "Even Lord Ji can't find out who he is, so aren't we helpless against this person?" ”

"As long as he does this, he will leave some clues." Ji Yuan patted her on the shoulder to express comfort.

——

At dusk, the remnant sun is like blood.

In the bedroom, Jiang Nian compared the two skirts in his hand with a distressed expression: "Miss hasn't chosen yet?" ”

"Let's wear blue, keep it low-key." Shen Zhiyi raised his hand, and his tone of voice was very perfunctory.

After his young lady changed her clothes, Jiang Nian spent a lot of effort to paint her the most popular peach blossom makeup in Beijing.

Shen Zhiyi lifted the broken hair on her forehead, and the petals between her eyebrows made her more and more charming.

Looking at the beautiful girl in front of him, Jiang Nian couldn't help but be stunned......

After a long time, she came back to her senses: "Miss, do you want to tell the eldest prince about the Qixi Festival with the third prince?" ”
