Sun Yue tore off a jade pendant from his waist and threw it in front of Qin Yan, speaking proudly. "Ten days later, we will make an appointment to fight against the No. [-] building in the world. I will send four people to test you. If you can match two questions, I will not care about today's matter."
"Compare! I'm afraid of you!" Qin Yan yelled, blushing and thick.
Ji Xiamo glanced at Gongsun Yue, and greeted him with a gentle smile. "Mr. Gongsun, although the purpose of this competition is to teach Qin Yan a lesson, but if it is really arranged like this, I am afraid that in the end, you will end up with someone who bullies others with power and deliberately makes it hard for you to be the head of the general's house."
"Well? If you say so, how should we do it?"
"Why don't you ask Mr. Qin Zhang to prepare four questions and have a fair fight, so that even if Qin Yan loses, no one will dare to say anything."
Gongsun Yue nodded simply without thinking deeply. "Okay! Let's do it!"
Ji Xiamo walked up to Qin Yan, took off the jade pendant around his waist under Qin Yan's angry eyes, and handed it to Gongsun Yue.
Gongsun Yue took it, casually threw it to the servants around him, turned around and left in high spirits.
"Ji Xiamo!! Which side are you from!!" Gongsun Yue left, freed from Jin Wuji's suppressed Qin Yan, and roared at Ji Xiamo with fiery eyes.
Ji Xiamo rolled her eyes, and the bone fan in her hand hit Qin Yan hard on the head. "You think I'm happy to take care of you, young master! If it weren't for young master, look at your father won't break your leg!"
Qin Yan covered his head in pain and grinned. Although Qin Yan was stupid, he was not so stupid that he could not be saved.He figured out the pros and cons of it as soon as he turned his head, but he still felt a little nervous.
"Then why do you say that my head was caught by the door! Your head was caught by the door!! My head is round!!"
"Pfft!" Seeing Qin Yan who was gesturing with his head with two hands, proving that his head was round, Ji Xiamo couldn't hold back his joy for a moment.
"Okay!" Ji Xiamo tapped Qin Yan and smiled. "Stop playing tricks on me!"
Qin Yan covered his head and sneered. After calming down, he felt a little embarrassed looking at Ji Xiamo. "Hey! You're not afraid that he will answer you on the spot if you're talking about literature with that guy? Let me tell you first, I don't know anything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting."
"Don't put your hopes on me, I'm not the same as you, my lord." Ji Xiamo threw off the fan to isolate Qin Yan's hopeful eyes.
"Then you still..."
"Because I understand, young master, that little bastard is not as good as the two of us!" Ji Xiamo said triumphantly, swinging his fan.
Little bastard?Gongsun Yue?Qin Yan's expression twitched.
"How did you know?"
"Guess!" It was a matter of course.
"Guess..." Qin Yan was silent. "What should we do after ten days? My father's military camp is full of military officers, and he doesn't even know a single word."
"You don't need to look for anyone, that little bastard can do whatever he wants, and you can eat and drink as usual with peace of mind." Ji Xiamo patted Qin Yan's shoulder loyally. "Isn't there still a young master here? With the young master here, even if you fall into the pit, the young master will pull you up!"
"Hmph! I can stand you!" Qin Yan snorted, turning his face away and ignoring Ji Xiamo.He didn't admit that he was touched.
Ji Xiamo shook the bone fan, smiling unfathomably. "But don't worry, I have my master in everything. I have my own way to help you through the difficulties. Gongsun Yue can't touch you!"
Gongsun Yue, you little brat, how dare you pretend to be a master with me!See if I don't kill you! !
[Text No.30 Episode [-] The chest is flat]
After talking nonsense with Qin Yan, it was only after joking that there was another person beside him.Signaling Qin Yan to be quiet, Ji Xiamo turned around with a smile and looked at the timid and silent boy behind him.
Ji Xiamo put on a kind smile, reached out and patted the young man's frail and frail shoulders comfortingly. "Don't worry, it's all right."
The young man looked up at Ji Xiamo, bowed his head, and thanked him softly. "Slave, thank you, Young Master Ji, for saving your life."
"You are not serving Mr. Pan, why are you here?"
"Young master suddenly said that he wanted to eat porridge this morning, so he sent his servants to buy some red dates and lotus seeds, but he didn't want to bump into that young master unintentionally and cause trouble. Fortunately, young master Ji came to help him." The young man thought for a while and said . "My son was weaker than ordinary people when he was young, and he only ate barley."
Ji Xiamo nodded, his eyes flickered slightly, and he glanced at the bamboo basket in the young man's hand in an unclear manner.
Seeing that Ji Xiamo stopped asking, the young man buried his head in a low voice. "The slave has been out for a while, if you don't go back, I'm afraid you will be worried. If Mr. Ji has nothing else to do, the slave will leave first."
Ji Xiamo raised her lips into a smile, and turned sideways to get out of the way. "Say hello to Mr. Pan Zhang for me!"
The young man bowed his head in response, and was about to leave in a hurry.
When the young man passed by Ji Xiamo, Ji Xiamo suddenly twisted Qin Yan who was beside him. Qin Yan yelled in pain, jumped to the side and bumped into the young man.
"Ah!" The boy exclaimed, and he staggered and fell forward.Ji Xiamo flashed his eyes quickly and wrapped his hands around the boy's chest.
The boy stabilized his body, and quickly broke free from Ji Xiamo's arms, his big eyes were round and round, and he looked like he was still in shock.
Ji Xiamo withdrew her hand lightly and smiled gently. "Be careful."
Holding the bamboo basket tightly in his arms, the young man thanked Ji Xiamo in a panic, turned around and disappeared into the crowd.
Looking at the back of the boy leaving, Ji Xiamo rubbed his right hand intentionally or unintentionally, feeling the contact just now, the darkness in his eyes deepened.
"Ji Xiamo!!" A roar pulled Ji Xiamo back from his thoughts, and Qin Yan angrily walked to Ji Xiamo's side, staring at him as if he wanted to eat someone.
Ji Xiamo picked his ears, and glanced coolly at Qin Yan, who was blushing and thick-necked, "I'm not deaf, I can hear, I have the strength to run around the street twice, what's the noise?"
"You!" Qin Yan pointed at Ji Xiamo angrily. "What did you just pinch me for!!"
"Oh!" Ji Xiamo responded lightly. "Try the feel, the boy's skin is quite tender."
As he said that, Ji Xiamo's wretched/obscene eyes slid up and down from Qin Yan's body, with a vicious look.
"Ji Xiamo!!" Qin Yan was furious, his handsome face flushed red, he didn't know whether it was from anger or shame.
Just as Ji Xiamo was teasing Qin Yan endlessly, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and a gloomy chill made his breathing stagnate, and his whole body tensed up.
Ji Xiamo turned her head cautiously, and met a pair of dark and deep eyes, and suddenly she felt bad.
"Brother Jin~~" Ji Xiamo pulled the corner of his mouth and waved his paw dryly.
Jin Wuji glanced at Ji Xiamo's hand, the coldness in his eyes became even worse, and his brows frowned.
"I didn't intend to do something bad just now!" In the spirit of being lenient for confession and strictness for resistance, under Jin Wuji's cold violence, Ji Xiamo was completely recruited within a minute.
"Are you sure he's a man or a woman?" After hearing Ji Xiamo's explanation, Qin Yan rolled his eyes and looked at Ji Xiamo like an idiot.
"This has always been a problem that has troubled me. I always feel that Pan Zilong has something to do with the case of the Pan Mansion. There is also this book boy, and the timing of his appearance is too coincidental."
"so what?"
Ji Xiamo touched his nose, and gestured a few times with his hands on his chest. "It's a man, and her chest is flat. But the strange thing is, his body has a very faint smell of rouge powder, which is almost easy to ignore if you don't smell it carefully."
"It can't be like this in the future!" Jin Wuji interrupted Ji Xiamo's gesture coldly, with a hint of anger hidden in his deep voice. "If he really gave birth to a daughter, wouldn't you be fouling people's innocence!"
Sensing Jin Wuji's anger keenly, Ji Xiamo nodded like a little yellow chicken, and almost raised three fingers to swear to the sky. "Yes! I will correct it and strive for leniency from the organization!"
"Brother Jin." Seeing Jin Wuji ignoring people with a cold face, Ji Xiamo stuck to him with a playful smile, and pulled Jin Wuji's arm to puff up his face and act like a baby. "Let's go home, okay, I'm hurting."
Jin Wuji's hand holding the sword tightened suddenly, and quickly lowered his head to look at Ji Xiamo's injured shoulder. When he saw the faint scarlet color on Ji Xiamo's shoulder, annoyance flashed away in his deep and cold black eyes.
"I have ordered someone to pass on to the doctor. Let's go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion first." Seeing that Ji Xiamo's wound was open, Qin Yan didn't care about arguing with Ji Xiamo again, and ordered the guards who followed him to take the carriage away. Come here, looked at Ji Xiamo and said anxiously.
The three of them got into the carriage in a hurry, and Ji Xiamo leaned lazily in Jin Wuji's arms, quickly filtering through his mind everything that had happened since he took over the case of the Pan Mansion, with deep black eyes flashing Faint dark color.
This mess, he seems to have found a clue.
The three of them hurried back to the prime minister's mansion, and sneaked back to the plum garden behind their backs.The doctor who Qin Yan sent also arrived, helped Ji Xiamo re-apply the medicine, bandaged it up, and gave instructions for a long time before taking the reward and leaving.
Ji Xiamo rubbed his painful forehead, looked at the door drowsily, and muttered softly.
Jin Wuji sent the doctor away, looked at Ji Xiamo's sullen look, and frowned slightly. "The wound is open. From now on, take good care of your wounds and don't go anywhere."
Ji Xiamo pursed her mouth and reached out to take the orange that Qin Yan had peeled. "Brother Jin, don't listen to that old man talking nonsense. It's just exaggerating to scare people. Doctor... Bah! The doctor has a few normal people in his mouth."
"My lord!" Aoki hurried in from outside the house.
Aoki walked quickly to the bed, bowed to Qin Yan, and then enshrined an unnamed letter to Ji Xiamo. "Young master, the Fifth Prince came this morning and saw that the young master was not in the mansion, so he left a letter saying that he has already investigated the matter that the young master commissioned him to investigate."
"Really!" Ji Xiamo was overjoyed and hurt his shoulder. Jin Wuji quickly stepped forward to hug Ji Xiamo, with a hint of anger on his face.
Ji Xiamo patted Jin Wuji's arm reassuringly, and turned to motion to Aoki. "Bring me the letter quickly."
After receiving the letter from Aoki, Ji Xiamo quickly opened it, read the letter word by word, and then there was a long silence.
Seeing Ji Xiamo's strange expression, Qin Yan wrinkled his nose uneasily. "Ji Xiamo?"
Staring at the two thin sheets of paper in his hand, Ji Xiamo was silent for a long time, then suddenly smiled.
"Sure enough! Sure enough!!" Ji Xiamo covered her face, laughing like crazy.
"Ji Xiamo, what did you write in the letter? Just say what you have to say, I get goosebumps when you laugh like that." Qin Yan rubbed his arms and said with disgust.
After a while, Ji Xiamo stopped laughing, and then looked at the envelope in his hand, his face gradually became serious again.
"Brother Jin." Ji Xiamo re-sealed the letter, put it away carefully, and looked up at Jin Wuji beside him. "I have something I need you to do now."
Ji Xiamo signaled Jin Wuji to come over and whispered softly, Jin Wuji frowned a little, and his eyes turned cold.
"Brother Jin." Ji Xiamo held Jin Wuji's hand with a solemn expression. "I'll leave this to you."
Jin Wuji thought for a moment, then looked back at Qin Yan who was eavesdropping, and said coldly. "My son's safety is entrusted to you. If there is any mistake, I will not forgive you."
After Jin Wuji finished speaking, he ignored Qin Yan's reaction and quickly disappeared into the room.
Looking at Jin Wuji's back, Qin Yan opened his mouth to speak but stopped, and was stunned for a while, unable to react.
Ji Xiamo leaned against the head of the bed, frowning slightly, touching her nose with one hand habitually, and carefully sorted out every detail since the investigation of the case.
"Qingmu." Ji Xiamo ordered. "Bring me the results of the autopsy records and the booklet sent by the Fifth Prince."
"Yes!"
The sky was getting dark gradually, and the food and hot tea had been changed several times. Aoki looked at the time, worried that Ji Xia Mo's eyes would be hurt if the light was too dark, so he lit a few more lights in the house.
Qin Yan stood guard at the door of Ji Xiamo's room holding a sword, a big horse, and a golden knife. He commanded the soldiers all over the yard majestically, and guarded the entire plum garden like an iron bucket.
Ji Xiamo flipped through the booklet that had already been rolled up, her brows became tighter and tighter, and the strength in her hands wished she could crush the booklet.
"Bastard thing!!" Cursing angrily, Ji Xiamo slammed the booklet in his hand on the table in a rage, overturning the dishes and food all over the floor.
Hearing the movement inside the house, Qin Yan, who had been guarding outside the house all the time, was startled, and rushed in with a group of soldiers, sharpening the sword five points in his hand.
The candles in the house flickered, the bowls and dishes were broken into pieces, and the soup dripped and splashed on the broken porcelain pieces.Ji Xiamo propped herself on the bed with one hand, panting slightly, and couldn't hide her anger.
Qin Yan swept around the quiet room, looked at Ji Xiamo whose shoulders were trembling with anger, and looked at Aoki questioningly.
Aoki held his breath and shook his head in fear.
Seeing the eerie silence in the atmosphere, Qin Yan closed the sword in his hand, went to the window and squatted down, looking worriedly at Ji Xiamo's pale face in pain. "Ji Xiamo, be careful of the wound."
The half-covered window sill opened, and a black shadow fell silently in the quiet room.Sensing that there was someone behind him, Qin Yan quickly got up, unsheathed the sword in his hand, and protected Ji Xiamo behind him.A kind of soldier drew out his sword in unison, aiming at the coming person, his aura was on the verge of firing.
"Guard Jin?" Qin Yan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw who was coming, and motioned for the soldiers to retract their weapons and step back.
Jin Wuji scanned the messy room, his face turned cold, he walked to the bedside and squatted down in three steps, his black eyes stared at Ji Xiamo's pale face.
"Brother Jin, you're back." Seeing Jin Wuji, Ji Xiamo pulled himself up and smiled.
Jin Wuji got up and hugged Ji Xiamo, carefully inspected his wound, and made sure that there was no further rupture, so he was a little relieved.
"What happened?" Jin Wuji glanced at the broken dishes and bowls all over the floor, and asked in a cold voice.
Ji Xiamo shook his head silently, "It's nothing, by the way, Brother Jin, have you found anything?"
Jin Wuji stared at Ji Xiamo, nodded slightly, and handed a brocade box to Ji Xiamo.
Ji Xiamo took it, and after seeing the contents in the box, she closed her beautiful black eyes, and a mocking wry smile twitched at the corner of her mouth. "really."
Qin Yan and Aoki looked at each other face to face. "Ji Xiamo, what kind of charades are you playing?"
Ji Xiamo opened his eyes, closed the brocade box in his hand, handed it to Jin Wuji, and said in a low voice, "Qingmu, send someone to the Fifth Prince's Mansion, and tell the Fifth Prince that we will gather at Pan's house tomorrow, and Ji Xiamo from the Prime Minister's Mansion will release him." government case."
"Yes!" Aoki backed out cautiously.
"Ji Xiamo!" Qin Yan stepped forward with a look of astonishment. "Do you know who the murderer is?"
Ji Xiamo raised the corners of her lips, and a cold light flashed in her eyes. "Qin Yan, it's getting late, let's stay at the prime minister's residence today."
Qin Yan wanted to ask something more, but was suppressed by Jin Wuji's cold eyes, so he had to follow the servants out of Ji Xiamo's room with his stomach full of confusion.
The house was quickly cleaned up by the servants. Jin Wuji closed the door, walked to the bed and sat down, staring at Ji Xiamo with his cold and deep eyes, with faint worry.
"Brother Jin." Leaning against Jin Wuji's cold arms, Ji Xiamo's messy breathing became a little more stable.
"I just went over the case of the Pan family. I have neglected some important points." After hesitating for a long time, Ji Xiamo pursed his lips and said in a low voice.
"Go to sleep." Jin Wuji calmly stopped Ji Xiamo, who wanted to clarify the truth, and with a snap of his fingers, several internal forces extinguished the burning candles in the room. "I'll talk about it tomorrow, you're tired now."
Ji Xiamo raised her head, quietly looked at Jin Wuji's firm and cold chin, and silently leaned against Jin Wuji's arms without saying a word.
Jin Wuji half hugged Ji Xiamo and untied his belt, took off his clothes, carefully avoided his wounds and put him on the bed to lie down.
"Brother Jin." When Jin Wuji lay down, Ji Xiamo held Jin Wuji's hand, buried his face in the bed and said in a muffled voice. "Is there a reason for killing people?"
"……kindness."
"Then, has Brother Jin ever killed anyone?"
"..." Jin Wuji held Ji Xiamo's hand tightly, silent for a moment, and nodded slightly. "Killed, many."
Jin Wuji raised his head and looked at the beams in the darkness lightly, his voice was calm without any fluctuation. "There are bad people, and there are good people. There are many, many, so many... I can't remember how many there are."
"Can Brother Jin find a reason for himself every time he kills someone?"
"I don't remember, maybe there is."
Silence lingered between the two, Jin Wuji quietly looked at the red bed curtain dancing in the wind, like scarlet blood flowers in full bloom.
Incense was burning in the furnace, and the smoke rose, scattered with the wind, and disappeared without a trace.
Time passed quietly, so long that Jin Wuji felt his body was cooling down little by little, stiff, like a dead person waiting to rot silently in the dark.
Suddenly, Ji Xiamo propped himself up and clung to Jin Wuji's shoulders, his red lips brushed past his ears, soft and itchy, like a feather falling on his heart.
"Brother Jin, if you do something bad in the future, I will definitely bend the law for personal gain."
[Text No.30 Episode [-] Yiren is originally a man]
Ji Xiamo got up just after dawn, and asked Aoki to put away the red clothes he had prepared, and put on a plain white robe. After a brief wash, he left the plum garden.
Perhaps it was because he didn't have a good rest last night, Ji Xiamo's eyes were slightly blue, and he was a little listless.For breakfast, I only drank a bowl of porridge, ate a vegetarian dumpling, and some pickles, and then lost my appetite.
After the three of them had breakfast, they left the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the carriage sent by Feng Shaojin was already waiting outside the mansion.Jin Wuji was worried that Ji Xiamo was hungry, so he packed some fruits and put them in the car.Winter had just passed, and what the mansion kept were ordinary apples and pears. Ji Xiamo was sitting in the center of the car absent-mindedly playing with a pear, but his mind had long gone.
Ji Xiamo's carriage stopped outside Pan's house, and Feng Shaojin had already arrived. The two guards guarding the door had apparently been ordered in advance. Seeing Ji Xiamo's arrival, they respectfully welcomed him into the house.
Ji Xiamo took a steady breath and pinched his face to make himself look as energetic as possible.
"Brother Jin, you have to protect me in case of danger." Ji Xiamo moved to Jin Wuji's side and whispered with a smile.
Jin Wuji looked down at Ji Xiamo's small head, suppressed the urge to touch it, and gave a low reply.
Being led by the guards to the living room, Feng Shaojin was sitting in the hall talking with Pan Zilong, seeing Ji Xiamo coming, Feng Shaojin got up to greet him. "It can be regarded as coming, it really makes this king wait."
Ji Xiamo was holding a beautiful fan with a bone fan in his hand, with a playful smile on his face. "Isn't this helping the old lady across the road on the road, and delaying doing good deeds without leaving a name? The fifth prince has a lot, don't blame, don't blame!"
"You!" Feng Shaojin shook his head and laughed. "My mouth is full of nonsense, and I have no shape."
"Master Ji." Pan Zilong greeted him with cupped hands. "I heard from Xiaozhi yesterday that Zilong would like to thank Mr. Ji for saving him."
Ji Xiamo looked at Pan Zilong, the smile in his eyes subsided a little, and he nodded slightly. "It's a little effort, no thanks."
After some joking and chatting, several people took their seats one after another. Shutong Xiaozhi served tea, and then quietly waited behind Pan Zilong, keeping his head buried in silence.Ji Xiamo glanced at Little Pheasant lightly, picked up the hot tea, and covered the corners of his tightly pursed mouth.
Feng Shaojin took a sip of tea to moisten his mouth, and looked up at Ji Xiamo. "Xiaomo, you sent a message last night that you have solved the murder case of the Pan family, and you will tell the truth."
Ji Xiamo blew away the floating tea leaves, and the scattered heat made Ji Xiamo's face blurry, making it difficult to see the reality.
In the quiet living room, Ji Xiamo drank half a cup of hot tea, then put the cup down, put the smile away from his black eyes, and looked at Pan Zilong calmly. "Mr. Pan, I don't know how the injury is now?"
Pan Zilong paused in his hands, and the gentle smile on his face froze a bit.Feng Shaojin and Qin Yan looked at each other face to face, not knowing what to say.
Pan Zilong put down his cup and looked at Ji Xiamo with a smile, "I don't know what Mr. Ji said? Zilong is dull, and he doesn't know what Mr. Pan means."
Ji Xiamo played with the bone fan, leaned lazily on the back of the chair, and looked at Pan Zilong with an indifferent expression. "You failed to kill me in Pan's mansion that night, and then you were seriously injured in the chest by Jin Huwei. I don't know how the injury is now."
As soon as these words came out, Feng Shaojin and Qin Yan who were seated suddenly stood up, Jin Wuji stepped forward with his sword in hand to protect Ji Xiamo behind him, and looked coldly at Pan Zilong with his black eyes.
Pan Zilong stared at Ji Xiamo, tapping his fingers on the table with a calm expression. "Hearing what Young Master Ji said, it seems that you are doubting me?"
Ji Xiamo raised the corners of her lips, stood up and signaled Jin Wuji to get out of the way. "When I visited Pan's house that night, I accidentally found some strange black spots on the rockery. It was blood."
"The 37 people in the prime minister's mansion were all buried in flames overnight. Among these people, only two were fatally wounded. One was Mrs. Pan, who was injured on the left back of the head. The other was the second son, Pan Zikai, who was injured in the throat and was killed with one blow." Life."
"I checked the room of the two, and found that the beds were all burned into charcoal, while some other wooden furniture in the house were only burnt to charcoal on the outside, and the inside was completely preserved. This shows that the two were burned after death , and the Pan Mansion started fire at these two places."
"What did you say!" Pan Zilong stood up suddenly and looked at Ji Xiamo in astonishment. "You said my father was killed by gangsters before the fire?"
Ji Xiamo frowned slightly, but still nodded. "That's right. If I guessed right, the bloodstain I saw on the rockery that night belonged to Pan Zikai, and that was the first scene of the crime."
"Mr. Pan is haunting the Pan Mansion late at night. I'm afraid he wants to hide something shady?"
Pan Zilong narrowed his eyes and sneered. "Master Ji, do you mean that I killed Pan Zikai?"
"if not?"
"Where's the evidence!" Pan Zilong said coldly. "Since Mr. Ji said that I am a murderer, where is the evidence! Or is Mr. Ji trying to put me in prison, and use torture?"
"Evidence?" Ji Xiamo's eyes flicked across Pan Zilong's body and settled on his chest. "The evidence is the sword wound on your chest, and the callus on your hand left from years of sword practice."
"The day before yesterday I came to Pan's house to inquire about the missing maid, and I smelled a faint smell of medicine on your body. Although it was covered by a strong incense, I compared it with many medicine smells when I went back. It is a golden sore that is specially used to heal sword wounds. medicine."
"Also yesterday, I met your book boy on the street. He told me that you want to eat porridge, so you came here to buy some red dates and lotus seeds, and these are all used to replenish blood."
Pan Zilong clenched his hands in his sleeves and spoke in a cold voice. "I have practiced martial arts since I was a child, and it is common for me to be injured. Mr. Ji just uses this to confirm the crime of killing me. I'm afraid it will make people feel dissatisfied."
"First, Jin Huwei's sword is not an ordinary thing, and even ordinary doctors can see some clues. Second, if my prediction is correct, Mr. Pan entered Pan's residence at night, maybe it was because of this little thing?" Ji Xiamo opened her palm with a smile, and a crystal clear jade bead lay in her palm.
Pan Zilong's pupils suddenly tightened, and his figure swayed slightly.
Ji Xiamo played with Yuzhu, smiled and looked at Xiaozhi, the book boy behind Pan Zilong, with a cold light flashing in his eyes. "I'm sure you're familiar with this little thing, right? The book boy, Little Pheasant? Or, I should call you the third lady of the Pan family, Pan Han'er."
"What!!" Qin Yan exclaimed, and Feng Shaojin's eyes widened, his face full of astonishment.
"What nonsense are you talking about!!" Pan Zilong yelled, and raised his fist to throw at Ji Xiamo.Jin Wuji's eyes turned cold, he stepped forward, and slapped Pan Zilong's chest with one hand.Pan Zilong snorted, staggered back, a mouthful of blood spilled out.
"Zilong!!" Xiaozhi exclaimed, and stepped forward to hug Pan Zilong's crumbling body.
Ji Xiamo took two steps forward, looking at Pan Zilong with an unchanged expression. "Among the 37 corpses in the Pan Mansion, Pan Han'er's bones make me feel very strange. Pan Han'er's bones are relatively wide, and there are bone calluses on the inside of the thumb and shoulders, which are formed after years of hard work. Originally I think that Pan Han'er, as an unfavored illegitimate daughter, is not like those pampered daughters, but your words the day before yesterday caught my attention."
"You said that when the missing maid was rescued by Pan Han'er, her left leg was broken. Although Pan Han'er tried her best to find a doctor to treat her, the root cause of the disease still remained."
"It's a coincidence." Ji Xiamo's mouth curled up in a cold arc. "During the autopsy, I found that in the body of 'Pan Han'er', the bones of the left leg were slightly deformed, and there were very thin cracks in the inner bone seam."
"Actually, the missing girl is not Xiao Lian, but Pan Han'er! The dead body is the missing Xiao Lian."
"No!" Qin Yan felt that his whole head was in a mess. "But isn't Pan Han'er a daughter? How could..."
"Yes." Ji Xiamo looked at the trembling little pheasant holding Pan Zilong with a half-smile. "I'm afraid that people in Pan's mansion would never have dreamed that the cowardly and timid Third Miss of Pan's mansion turned out to be a man! So, I have always felt that this book boy is obviously a man, but his body smells like powder, which can be explained." Got it. And his hands, pampered hands that haven't suffered."
"What he said casually yesterday made me feel very strange. He said that you were weaker than ordinary people when you were young, and you only ate barley. How could he know how you were when you were a child, a book boy who has been with you for less than a month?"
"I asked the fifth prince to search for this jade bead, and finally found a jade pavilion. This kind of jade bead looks ordinary, but in fact, each pair is different and unique."
"According to the boss in the Jade Pavilion, there are 34 jade beads in total, and they were made into two jade bracelets. They were bought by a man and a woman half a year ago. One of the two jade beads is engraved with a Words, dragon and pheasant."
As Ji Xiamo said, he motioned to Jin Wuji who was beside him. Jin Wuji understood, turned and left the living room, and brought back a middle-aged man.
The man bowed into the living room, knelt on the ground, shaking like chaff, not daring to raise his head.
"Let's take a closer look, those two people were the ones who went to your store to buy jade bracelets that day." Ji Xiamo said.
The man raised his head tremblingly, looked at Pan Zilong and Xiaozhi for a moment, and kowtowed again and again. "That's right, it's the two of them. Although the girl has changed into a man's clothes, the villain will not admit her mistake."
Pan Zilong closed his eyes, with despair on his pale face.
Ji Xiamo waved his hand to signal the man to step back, took the brocade box from Jin Wuji, and threw it in front of Pan Zilong, and two bracelets made of jade beads fell out of the box. "This is what Guard Jin found in your room."
"In addition, I entrusted the Fifth Prince to send people to Pan Han'er's hometown, and secretly searched and found the midwife who gave birth to Pan Han'er's mother, Luo Yao. I learned that Luo Yao gave birth to a son instead of a daughter. ! The single character is named Pheasant!"
"Pan Zilong, what else do you have to say now!!!"
"Heh! Hahaha..." Pan Zilong covered his face decadently, laughing like crazy. "I thought that if everyone is dead, I can take the little pheasant away and find a place to live in seclusion. No one will separate us again. But, after all the calculations, you, Ji Xiamo, have not been counted. Appear."
"..." Ji Xiamo
Did he hear something he shouldn't have heard?
"Don't blame him!!" Little Pheasant stood up and stood in front of Ji Xiamo, shouting loudly. "It's me, it's all my fault!!"
"Little Pheasant..."
"I hate the Pan family. I returned to the Pan family just to get revenge, but I didn't expect to meet Zilong. I couldn't control my heart and fell in love with him. I clearly know that this is taboo and incest. I won't end well with him, but I can't control it..."
"Little pheasant!!" Pan Zilong yelled, struggling to get up and hug the little pheasant tightly in his arms, looking at Ji Xiamo coldly. "I killed Pan Zikai! It has nothing to do with the little pheasant."
"Zi Long……"
"I like the little pheasant. If a man loves him, he loves it. People here can't tolerate us, so let's go. The world is so big, there will always be a place for us." Pan Zilong looked down at the little pheasant whose face was full of tears. , eyes full of tenderness.
"Everyone was busy with my father's birthday party that night. I was intimate with Xiaozhi behind the rockery, discussing about elopement, but I didn't want to be heard by that bastard Pan Zikai. He ignored me and Xiaozhi's suffering. Begging, insisting on reporting to my father, I was impatient, so I could only kill him."
"After killing Pan Zikai, I brought him back into the room and knocked over the candlestick. I only wanted to cause Pan Zikai's accidental death, but I didn't expect to kill so many people!"
"Nonsense!" Qin Yan yelled angrily, glaring at Pan Zilong with wide eyes, wishing he could chop him up with a knife.
"Master Pan was also killed and burned. Everyone in the entire Pan residence died before the fire started. The entire Pan residence was doused with a lot of kerosene. Could it be that you did all of this?"
"We don't know!" Xiaozhi raised his head and stared at Qin Yan in disbelief. "Zilong and I just killed Pan Zikai, moved them to the room and burned them, and then left. We don't know anything else!"
"How dare you speak hard when you are about to die! Pan Zilong! With 37 lives, you will kill your father and brother, and you will not be able to pay off your debt!"
Pan Zilong sneered. "It's your inability to find out the real murderer, and now it's all on me."
"you……"
"Come here!" Feng Shaojin frowned and called a group of guards coldly, not wanting to talk nonsense, and surrounded Pan Zilong and Xiaozhi.
"Take these two people back to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and judge after hearing!"
"Yes!!"
"One person does things and one person is responsible. If you want to kill or kill, you can do whatever you want, let go of the little pheasant!!"
"It's your incompetence!! You can't find out the real murderer! Stupid officials!!"
…………
"Are you okay?" Jin Wuji walked to Ji Xiamo's side, his eyes flashed with worry.
Ji Xiamo raised his head, shook his head silently, his frown was never loosened.
"Ji Xiamo!" Qin Yan walked to Ji Xiamo's side with a smile, and wanted to give him a love punch, but was stopped by Jin Wuji's cold eyes, and he was stillborn.
Qin Yan rubbed his hands sleepily, and smiled dryly. "Ji Xiamo, okay! I really underestimated you. You actually solved a case that had no clue."
Ji Xiamo cast a cool glance at Qin Yan, and walked out the door without saying a word.
Feng Shaojin followed, looked at Ji Xiamo's furrowed brows, and spoke in a deep voice. "What's wrong? You don't seem happy."
Ji Xiamo paused, was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know what's going on, but I always feel like I've forgotten something very important."
"Maybe it's because you're too tired these days? Then you should rest well, and I'll make a contribution to your father." Feng Shaojin reached out and patted Ji Xiamo's shoulder, comforting him.
Ji Xiamo nodded hesitantly and said nothing more.
The three of them left Pan's house, and Feng Shaojin got into the sedan chair and went back to the Five Princes' Mansion.Qin Yan didn't bother Ji Xiamo anymore, said goodbye to Ji Xiamo, and went back to his home.
Sitting in the carriage, Ji Xiamo twirled the bone fan in his hand for a while, recalling what happened just now in his mind, only to feel a severe pain in his head.
Jin Wuji reached out and pressed Ji Xiamo on his shoulder, and spoke in a low voice. "take a break."
Ji Xiamo nestled in Jin Wuji's arms, silent for a long time, and said hesitantly, "Brother Jin, I think Pan Zilong is not the only murderer."
"Rest first, and then look for evidence."
"Does Brother Jin trust me?"
"kindness."
"...Brother Jin, I don't believe it. I can't find evidence to overturn my inference just now."
"Get some sleep first."
"it is good."
Brother Jin, will you always be here?
Just like now, as long as I need it, I will always find you when I open my eyes.
[Text No.40 Episode Prison]
Ji Xiamo was lazily leaning against the round table in front of the window, throwing three glazed dice
"Compare! I'm afraid of you!" Qin Yan yelled, blushing and thick.
Ji Xiamo glanced at Gongsun Yue, and greeted him with a gentle smile. "Mr. Gongsun, although the purpose of this competition is to teach Qin Yan a lesson, but if it is really arranged like this, I am afraid that in the end, you will end up with someone who bullies others with power and deliberately makes it hard for you to be the head of the general's house."
"Well? If you say so, how should we do it?"
"Why don't you ask Mr. Qin Zhang to prepare four questions and have a fair fight, so that even if Qin Yan loses, no one will dare to say anything."
Gongsun Yue nodded simply without thinking deeply. "Okay! Let's do it!"
Ji Xiamo walked up to Qin Yan, took off the jade pendant around his waist under Qin Yan's angry eyes, and handed it to Gongsun Yue.
Gongsun Yue took it, casually threw it to the servants around him, turned around and left in high spirits.
"Ji Xiamo!! Which side are you from!!" Gongsun Yue left, freed from Jin Wuji's suppressed Qin Yan, and roared at Ji Xiamo with fiery eyes.
Ji Xiamo rolled her eyes, and the bone fan in her hand hit Qin Yan hard on the head. "You think I'm happy to take care of you, young master! If it weren't for young master, look at your father won't break your leg!"
Qin Yan covered his head in pain and grinned. Although Qin Yan was stupid, he was not so stupid that he could not be saved.He figured out the pros and cons of it as soon as he turned his head, but he still felt a little nervous.
"Then why do you say that my head was caught by the door! Your head was caught by the door!! My head is round!!"
"Pfft!" Seeing Qin Yan who was gesturing with his head with two hands, proving that his head was round, Ji Xiamo couldn't hold back his joy for a moment.
"Okay!" Ji Xiamo tapped Qin Yan and smiled. "Stop playing tricks on me!"
Qin Yan covered his head and sneered. After calming down, he felt a little embarrassed looking at Ji Xiamo. "Hey! You're not afraid that he will answer you on the spot if you're talking about literature with that guy? Let me tell you first, I don't know anything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting."
"Don't put your hopes on me, I'm not the same as you, my lord." Ji Xiamo threw off the fan to isolate Qin Yan's hopeful eyes.
"Then you still..."
"Because I understand, young master, that little bastard is not as good as the two of us!" Ji Xiamo said triumphantly, swinging his fan.
Little bastard?Gongsun Yue?Qin Yan's expression twitched.
"How did you know?"
"Guess!" It was a matter of course.
"Guess..." Qin Yan was silent. "What should we do after ten days? My father's military camp is full of military officers, and he doesn't even know a single word."
"You don't need to look for anyone, that little bastard can do whatever he wants, and you can eat and drink as usual with peace of mind." Ji Xiamo patted Qin Yan's shoulder loyally. "Isn't there still a young master here? With the young master here, even if you fall into the pit, the young master will pull you up!"
"Hmph! I can stand you!" Qin Yan snorted, turning his face away and ignoring Ji Xiamo.He didn't admit that he was touched.
Ji Xiamo shook the bone fan, smiling unfathomably. "But don't worry, I have my master in everything. I have my own way to help you through the difficulties. Gongsun Yue can't touch you!"
Gongsun Yue, you little brat, how dare you pretend to be a master with me!See if I don't kill you! !
[Text No.30 Episode [-] The chest is flat]
After talking nonsense with Qin Yan, it was only after joking that there was another person beside him.Signaling Qin Yan to be quiet, Ji Xiamo turned around with a smile and looked at the timid and silent boy behind him.
Ji Xiamo put on a kind smile, reached out and patted the young man's frail and frail shoulders comfortingly. "Don't worry, it's all right."
The young man looked up at Ji Xiamo, bowed his head, and thanked him softly. "Slave, thank you, Young Master Ji, for saving your life."
"You are not serving Mr. Pan, why are you here?"
"Young master suddenly said that he wanted to eat porridge this morning, so he sent his servants to buy some red dates and lotus seeds, but he didn't want to bump into that young master unintentionally and cause trouble. Fortunately, young master Ji came to help him." The young man thought for a while and said . "My son was weaker than ordinary people when he was young, and he only ate barley."
Ji Xiamo nodded, his eyes flickered slightly, and he glanced at the bamboo basket in the young man's hand in an unclear manner.
Seeing that Ji Xiamo stopped asking, the young man buried his head in a low voice. "The slave has been out for a while, if you don't go back, I'm afraid you will be worried. If Mr. Ji has nothing else to do, the slave will leave first."
Ji Xiamo raised her lips into a smile, and turned sideways to get out of the way. "Say hello to Mr. Pan Zhang for me!"
The young man bowed his head in response, and was about to leave in a hurry.
When the young man passed by Ji Xiamo, Ji Xiamo suddenly twisted Qin Yan who was beside him. Qin Yan yelled in pain, jumped to the side and bumped into the young man.
"Ah!" The boy exclaimed, and he staggered and fell forward.Ji Xiamo flashed his eyes quickly and wrapped his hands around the boy's chest.
The boy stabilized his body, and quickly broke free from Ji Xiamo's arms, his big eyes were round and round, and he looked like he was still in shock.
Ji Xiamo withdrew her hand lightly and smiled gently. "Be careful."
Holding the bamboo basket tightly in his arms, the young man thanked Ji Xiamo in a panic, turned around and disappeared into the crowd.
Looking at the back of the boy leaving, Ji Xiamo rubbed his right hand intentionally or unintentionally, feeling the contact just now, the darkness in his eyes deepened.
"Ji Xiamo!!" A roar pulled Ji Xiamo back from his thoughts, and Qin Yan angrily walked to Ji Xiamo's side, staring at him as if he wanted to eat someone.
Ji Xiamo picked his ears, and glanced coolly at Qin Yan, who was blushing and thick-necked, "I'm not deaf, I can hear, I have the strength to run around the street twice, what's the noise?"
"You!" Qin Yan pointed at Ji Xiamo angrily. "What did you just pinch me for!!"
"Oh!" Ji Xiamo responded lightly. "Try the feel, the boy's skin is quite tender."
As he said that, Ji Xiamo's wretched/obscene eyes slid up and down from Qin Yan's body, with a vicious look.
"Ji Xiamo!!" Qin Yan was furious, his handsome face flushed red, he didn't know whether it was from anger or shame.
Just as Ji Xiamo was teasing Qin Yan endlessly, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and a gloomy chill made his breathing stagnate, and his whole body tensed up.
Ji Xiamo turned her head cautiously, and met a pair of dark and deep eyes, and suddenly she felt bad.
"Brother Jin~~" Ji Xiamo pulled the corner of his mouth and waved his paw dryly.
Jin Wuji glanced at Ji Xiamo's hand, the coldness in his eyes became even worse, and his brows frowned.
"I didn't intend to do something bad just now!" In the spirit of being lenient for confession and strictness for resistance, under Jin Wuji's cold violence, Ji Xiamo was completely recruited within a minute.
"Are you sure he's a man or a woman?" After hearing Ji Xiamo's explanation, Qin Yan rolled his eyes and looked at Ji Xiamo like an idiot.
"This has always been a problem that has troubled me. I always feel that Pan Zilong has something to do with the case of the Pan Mansion. There is also this book boy, and the timing of his appearance is too coincidental."
"so what?"
Ji Xiamo touched his nose, and gestured a few times with his hands on his chest. "It's a man, and her chest is flat. But the strange thing is, his body has a very faint smell of rouge powder, which is almost easy to ignore if you don't smell it carefully."
"It can't be like this in the future!" Jin Wuji interrupted Ji Xiamo's gesture coldly, with a hint of anger hidden in his deep voice. "If he really gave birth to a daughter, wouldn't you be fouling people's innocence!"
Sensing Jin Wuji's anger keenly, Ji Xiamo nodded like a little yellow chicken, and almost raised three fingers to swear to the sky. "Yes! I will correct it and strive for leniency from the organization!"
"Brother Jin." Seeing Jin Wuji ignoring people with a cold face, Ji Xiamo stuck to him with a playful smile, and pulled Jin Wuji's arm to puff up his face and act like a baby. "Let's go home, okay, I'm hurting."
Jin Wuji's hand holding the sword tightened suddenly, and quickly lowered his head to look at Ji Xiamo's injured shoulder. When he saw the faint scarlet color on Ji Xiamo's shoulder, annoyance flashed away in his deep and cold black eyes.
"I have ordered someone to pass on to the doctor. Let's go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion first." Seeing that Ji Xiamo's wound was open, Qin Yan didn't care about arguing with Ji Xiamo again, and ordered the guards who followed him to take the carriage away. Come here, looked at Ji Xiamo and said anxiously.
The three of them got into the carriage in a hurry, and Ji Xiamo leaned lazily in Jin Wuji's arms, quickly filtering through his mind everything that had happened since he took over the case of the Pan Mansion, with deep black eyes flashing Faint dark color.
This mess, he seems to have found a clue.
The three of them hurried back to the prime minister's mansion, and sneaked back to the plum garden behind their backs.The doctor who Qin Yan sent also arrived, helped Ji Xiamo re-apply the medicine, bandaged it up, and gave instructions for a long time before taking the reward and leaving.
Ji Xiamo rubbed his painful forehead, looked at the door drowsily, and muttered softly.
Jin Wuji sent the doctor away, looked at Ji Xiamo's sullen look, and frowned slightly. "The wound is open. From now on, take good care of your wounds and don't go anywhere."
Ji Xiamo pursed her mouth and reached out to take the orange that Qin Yan had peeled. "Brother Jin, don't listen to that old man talking nonsense. It's just exaggerating to scare people. Doctor... Bah! The doctor has a few normal people in his mouth."
"My lord!" Aoki hurried in from outside the house.
Aoki walked quickly to the bed, bowed to Qin Yan, and then enshrined an unnamed letter to Ji Xiamo. "Young master, the Fifth Prince came this morning and saw that the young master was not in the mansion, so he left a letter saying that he has already investigated the matter that the young master commissioned him to investigate."
"Really!" Ji Xiamo was overjoyed and hurt his shoulder. Jin Wuji quickly stepped forward to hug Ji Xiamo, with a hint of anger on his face.
Ji Xiamo patted Jin Wuji's arm reassuringly, and turned to motion to Aoki. "Bring me the letter quickly."
After receiving the letter from Aoki, Ji Xiamo quickly opened it, read the letter word by word, and then there was a long silence.
Seeing Ji Xiamo's strange expression, Qin Yan wrinkled his nose uneasily. "Ji Xiamo?"
Staring at the two thin sheets of paper in his hand, Ji Xiamo was silent for a long time, then suddenly smiled.
"Sure enough! Sure enough!!" Ji Xiamo covered her face, laughing like crazy.
"Ji Xiamo, what did you write in the letter? Just say what you have to say, I get goosebumps when you laugh like that." Qin Yan rubbed his arms and said with disgust.
After a while, Ji Xiamo stopped laughing, and then looked at the envelope in his hand, his face gradually became serious again.
"Brother Jin." Ji Xiamo re-sealed the letter, put it away carefully, and looked up at Jin Wuji beside him. "I have something I need you to do now."
Ji Xiamo signaled Jin Wuji to come over and whispered softly, Jin Wuji frowned a little, and his eyes turned cold.
"Brother Jin." Ji Xiamo held Jin Wuji's hand with a solemn expression. "I'll leave this to you."
Jin Wuji thought for a moment, then looked back at Qin Yan who was eavesdropping, and said coldly. "My son's safety is entrusted to you. If there is any mistake, I will not forgive you."
After Jin Wuji finished speaking, he ignored Qin Yan's reaction and quickly disappeared into the room.
Looking at Jin Wuji's back, Qin Yan opened his mouth to speak but stopped, and was stunned for a while, unable to react.
Ji Xiamo leaned against the head of the bed, frowning slightly, touching her nose with one hand habitually, and carefully sorted out every detail since the investigation of the case.
"Qingmu." Ji Xiamo ordered. "Bring me the results of the autopsy records and the booklet sent by the Fifth Prince."
"Yes!"
The sky was getting dark gradually, and the food and hot tea had been changed several times. Aoki looked at the time, worried that Ji Xia Mo's eyes would be hurt if the light was too dark, so he lit a few more lights in the house.
Qin Yan stood guard at the door of Ji Xiamo's room holding a sword, a big horse, and a golden knife. He commanded the soldiers all over the yard majestically, and guarded the entire plum garden like an iron bucket.
Ji Xiamo flipped through the booklet that had already been rolled up, her brows became tighter and tighter, and the strength in her hands wished she could crush the booklet.
"Bastard thing!!" Cursing angrily, Ji Xiamo slammed the booklet in his hand on the table in a rage, overturning the dishes and food all over the floor.
Hearing the movement inside the house, Qin Yan, who had been guarding outside the house all the time, was startled, and rushed in with a group of soldiers, sharpening the sword five points in his hand.
The candles in the house flickered, the bowls and dishes were broken into pieces, and the soup dripped and splashed on the broken porcelain pieces.Ji Xiamo propped herself on the bed with one hand, panting slightly, and couldn't hide her anger.
Qin Yan swept around the quiet room, looked at Ji Xiamo whose shoulders were trembling with anger, and looked at Aoki questioningly.
Aoki held his breath and shook his head in fear.
Seeing the eerie silence in the atmosphere, Qin Yan closed the sword in his hand, went to the window and squatted down, looking worriedly at Ji Xiamo's pale face in pain. "Ji Xiamo, be careful of the wound."
The half-covered window sill opened, and a black shadow fell silently in the quiet room.Sensing that there was someone behind him, Qin Yan quickly got up, unsheathed the sword in his hand, and protected Ji Xiamo behind him.A kind of soldier drew out his sword in unison, aiming at the coming person, his aura was on the verge of firing.
"Guard Jin?" Qin Yan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw who was coming, and motioned for the soldiers to retract their weapons and step back.
Jin Wuji scanned the messy room, his face turned cold, he walked to the bedside and squatted down in three steps, his black eyes stared at Ji Xiamo's pale face.
"Brother Jin, you're back." Seeing Jin Wuji, Ji Xiamo pulled himself up and smiled.
Jin Wuji got up and hugged Ji Xiamo, carefully inspected his wound, and made sure that there was no further rupture, so he was a little relieved.
"What happened?" Jin Wuji glanced at the broken dishes and bowls all over the floor, and asked in a cold voice.
Ji Xiamo shook his head silently, "It's nothing, by the way, Brother Jin, have you found anything?"
Jin Wuji stared at Ji Xiamo, nodded slightly, and handed a brocade box to Ji Xiamo.
Ji Xiamo took it, and after seeing the contents in the box, she closed her beautiful black eyes, and a mocking wry smile twitched at the corner of her mouth. "really."
Qin Yan and Aoki looked at each other face to face. "Ji Xiamo, what kind of charades are you playing?"
Ji Xiamo opened his eyes, closed the brocade box in his hand, handed it to Jin Wuji, and said in a low voice, "Qingmu, send someone to the Fifth Prince's Mansion, and tell the Fifth Prince that we will gather at Pan's house tomorrow, and Ji Xiamo from the Prime Minister's Mansion will release him." government case."
"Yes!" Aoki backed out cautiously.
"Ji Xiamo!" Qin Yan stepped forward with a look of astonishment. "Do you know who the murderer is?"
Ji Xiamo raised the corners of her lips, and a cold light flashed in her eyes. "Qin Yan, it's getting late, let's stay at the prime minister's residence today."
Qin Yan wanted to ask something more, but was suppressed by Jin Wuji's cold eyes, so he had to follow the servants out of Ji Xiamo's room with his stomach full of confusion.
The house was quickly cleaned up by the servants. Jin Wuji closed the door, walked to the bed and sat down, staring at Ji Xiamo with his cold and deep eyes, with faint worry.
"Brother Jin." Leaning against Jin Wuji's cold arms, Ji Xiamo's messy breathing became a little more stable.
"I just went over the case of the Pan family. I have neglected some important points." After hesitating for a long time, Ji Xiamo pursed his lips and said in a low voice.
"Go to sleep." Jin Wuji calmly stopped Ji Xiamo, who wanted to clarify the truth, and with a snap of his fingers, several internal forces extinguished the burning candles in the room. "I'll talk about it tomorrow, you're tired now."
Ji Xiamo raised her head, quietly looked at Jin Wuji's firm and cold chin, and silently leaned against Jin Wuji's arms without saying a word.
Jin Wuji half hugged Ji Xiamo and untied his belt, took off his clothes, carefully avoided his wounds and put him on the bed to lie down.
"Brother Jin." When Jin Wuji lay down, Ji Xiamo held Jin Wuji's hand, buried his face in the bed and said in a muffled voice. "Is there a reason for killing people?"
"……kindness."
"Then, has Brother Jin ever killed anyone?"
"..." Jin Wuji held Ji Xiamo's hand tightly, silent for a moment, and nodded slightly. "Killed, many."
Jin Wuji raised his head and looked at the beams in the darkness lightly, his voice was calm without any fluctuation. "There are bad people, and there are good people. There are many, many, so many... I can't remember how many there are."
"Can Brother Jin find a reason for himself every time he kills someone?"
"I don't remember, maybe there is."
Silence lingered between the two, Jin Wuji quietly looked at the red bed curtain dancing in the wind, like scarlet blood flowers in full bloom.
Incense was burning in the furnace, and the smoke rose, scattered with the wind, and disappeared without a trace.
Time passed quietly, so long that Jin Wuji felt his body was cooling down little by little, stiff, like a dead person waiting to rot silently in the dark.
Suddenly, Ji Xiamo propped himself up and clung to Jin Wuji's shoulders, his red lips brushed past his ears, soft and itchy, like a feather falling on his heart.
"Brother Jin, if you do something bad in the future, I will definitely bend the law for personal gain."
[Text No.30 Episode [-] Yiren is originally a man]
Ji Xiamo got up just after dawn, and asked Aoki to put away the red clothes he had prepared, and put on a plain white robe. After a brief wash, he left the plum garden.
Perhaps it was because he didn't have a good rest last night, Ji Xiamo's eyes were slightly blue, and he was a little listless.For breakfast, I only drank a bowl of porridge, ate a vegetarian dumpling, and some pickles, and then lost my appetite.
After the three of them had breakfast, they left the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the carriage sent by Feng Shaojin was already waiting outside the mansion.Jin Wuji was worried that Ji Xiamo was hungry, so he packed some fruits and put them in the car.Winter had just passed, and what the mansion kept were ordinary apples and pears. Ji Xiamo was sitting in the center of the car absent-mindedly playing with a pear, but his mind had long gone.
Ji Xiamo's carriage stopped outside Pan's house, and Feng Shaojin had already arrived. The two guards guarding the door had apparently been ordered in advance. Seeing Ji Xiamo's arrival, they respectfully welcomed him into the house.
Ji Xiamo took a steady breath and pinched his face to make himself look as energetic as possible.
"Brother Jin, you have to protect me in case of danger." Ji Xiamo moved to Jin Wuji's side and whispered with a smile.
Jin Wuji looked down at Ji Xiamo's small head, suppressed the urge to touch it, and gave a low reply.
Being led by the guards to the living room, Feng Shaojin was sitting in the hall talking with Pan Zilong, seeing Ji Xiamo coming, Feng Shaojin got up to greet him. "It can be regarded as coming, it really makes this king wait."
Ji Xiamo was holding a beautiful fan with a bone fan in his hand, with a playful smile on his face. "Isn't this helping the old lady across the road on the road, and delaying doing good deeds without leaving a name? The fifth prince has a lot, don't blame, don't blame!"
"You!" Feng Shaojin shook his head and laughed. "My mouth is full of nonsense, and I have no shape."
"Master Ji." Pan Zilong greeted him with cupped hands. "I heard from Xiaozhi yesterday that Zilong would like to thank Mr. Ji for saving him."
Ji Xiamo looked at Pan Zilong, the smile in his eyes subsided a little, and he nodded slightly. "It's a little effort, no thanks."
After some joking and chatting, several people took their seats one after another. Shutong Xiaozhi served tea, and then quietly waited behind Pan Zilong, keeping his head buried in silence.Ji Xiamo glanced at Little Pheasant lightly, picked up the hot tea, and covered the corners of his tightly pursed mouth.
Feng Shaojin took a sip of tea to moisten his mouth, and looked up at Ji Xiamo. "Xiaomo, you sent a message last night that you have solved the murder case of the Pan family, and you will tell the truth."
Ji Xiamo blew away the floating tea leaves, and the scattered heat made Ji Xiamo's face blurry, making it difficult to see the reality.
In the quiet living room, Ji Xiamo drank half a cup of hot tea, then put the cup down, put the smile away from his black eyes, and looked at Pan Zilong calmly. "Mr. Pan, I don't know how the injury is now?"
Pan Zilong paused in his hands, and the gentle smile on his face froze a bit.Feng Shaojin and Qin Yan looked at each other face to face, not knowing what to say.
Pan Zilong put down his cup and looked at Ji Xiamo with a smile, "I don't know what Mr. Ji said? Zilong is dull, and he doesn't know what Mr. Pan means."
Ji Xiamo played with the bone fan, leaned lazily on the back of the chair, and looked at Pan Zilong with an indifferent expression. "You failed to kill me in Pan's mansion that night, and then you were seriously injured in the chest by Jin Huwei. I don't know how the injury is now."
As soon as these words came out, Feng Shaojin and Qin Yan who were seated suddenly stood up, Jin Wuji stepped forward with his sword in hand to protect Ji Xiamo behind him, and looked coldly at Pan Zilong with his black eyes.
Pan Zilong stared at Ji Xiamo, tapping his fingers on the table with a calm expression. "Hearing what Young Master Ji said, it seems that you are doubting me?"
Ji Xiamo raised the corners of her lips, stood up and signaled Jin Wuji to get out of the way. "When I visited Pan's house that night, I accidentally found some strange black spots on the rockery. It was blood."
"The 37 people in the prime minister's mansion were all buried in flames overnight. Among these people, only two were fatally wounded. One was Mrs. Pan, who was injured on the left back of the head. The other was the second son, Pan Zikai, who was injured in the throat and was killed with one blow." Life."
"I checked the room of the two, and found that the beds were all burned into charcoal, while some other wooden furniture in the house were only burnt to charcoal on the outside, and the inside was completely preserved. This shows that the two were burned after death , and the Pan Mansion started fire at these two places."
"What did you say!" Pan Zilong stood up suddenly and looked at Ji Xiamo in astonishment. "You said my father was killed by gangsters before the fire?"
Ji Xiamo frowned slightly, but still nodded. "That's right. If I guessed right, the bloodstain I saw on the rockery that night belonged to Pan Zikai, and that was the first scene of the crime."
"Mr. Pan is haunting the Pan Mansion late at night. I'm afraid he wants to hide something shady?"
Pan Zilong narrowed his eyes and sneered. "Master Ji, do you mean that I killed Pan Zikai?"
"if not?"
"Where's the evidence!" Pan Zilong said coldly. "Since Mr. Ji said that I am a murderer, where is the evidence! Or is Mr. Ji trying to put me in prison, and use torture?"
"Evidence?" Ji Xiamo's eyes flicked across Pan Zilong's body and settled on his chest. "The evidence is the sword wound on your chest, and the callus on your hand left from years of sword practice."
"The day before yesterday I came to Pan's house to inquire about the missing maid, and I smelled a faint smell of medicine on your body. Although it was covered by a strong incense, I compared it with many medicine smells when I went back. It is a golden sore that is specially used to heal sword wounds. medicine."
"Also yesterday, I met your book boy on the street. He told me that you want to eat porridge, so you came here to buy some red dates and lotus seeds, and these are all used to replenish blood."
Pan Zilong clenched his hands in his sleeves and spoke in a cold voice. "I have practiced martial arts since I was a child, and it is common for me to be injured. Mr. Ji just uses this to confirm the crime of killing me. I'm afraid it will make people feel dissatisfied."
"First, Jin Huwei's sword is not an ordinary thing, and even ordinary doctors can see some clues. Second, if my prediction is correct, Mr. Pan entered Pan's residence at night, maybe it was because of this little thing?" Ji Xiamo opened her palm with a smile, and a crystal clear jade bead lay in her palm.
Pan Zilong's pupils suddenly tightened, and his figure swayed slightly.
Ji Xiamo played with Yuzhu, smiled and looked at Xiaozhi, the book boy behind Pan Zilong, with a cold light flashing in his eyes. "I'm sure you're familiar with this little thing, right? The book boy, Little Pheasant? Or, I should call you the third lady of the Pan family, Pan Han'er."
"What!!" Qin Yan exclaimed, and Feng Shaojin's eyes widened, his face full of astonishment.
"What nonsense are you talking about!!" Pan Zilong yelled, and raised his fist to throw at Ji Xiamo.Jin Wuji's eyes turned cold, he stepped forward, and slapped Pan Zilong's chest with one hand.Pan Zilong snorted, staggered back, a mouthful of blood spilled out.
"Zilong!!" Xiaozhi exclaimed, and stepped forward to hug Pan Zilong's crumbling body.
Ji Xiamo took two steps forward, looking at Pan Zilong with an unchanged expression. "Among the 37 corpses in the Pan Mansion, Pan Han'er's bones make me feel very strange. Pan Han'er's bones are relatively wide, and there are bone calluses on the inside of the thumb and shoulders, which are formed after years of hard work. Originally I think that Pan Han'er, as an unfavored illegitimate daughter, is not like those pampered daughters, but your words the day before yesterday caught my attention."
"You said that when the missing maid was rescued by Pan Han'er, her left leg was broken. Although Pan Han'er tried her best to find a doctor to treat her, the root cause of the disease still remained."
"It's a coincidence." Ji Xiamo's mouth curled up in a cold arc. "During the autopsy, I found that in the body of 'Pan Han'er', the bones of the left leg were slightly deformed, and there were very thin cracks in the inner bone seam."
"Actually, the missing girl is not Xiao Lian, but Pan Han'er! The dead body is the missing Xiao Lian."
"No!" Qin Yan felt that his whole head was in a mess. "But isn't Pan Han'er a daughter? How could..."
"Yes." Ji Xiamo looked at the trembling little pheasant holding Pan Zilong with a half-smile. "I'm afraid that people in Pan's mansion would never have dreamed that the cowardly and timid Third Miss of Pan's mansion turned out to be a man! So, I have always felt that this book boy is obviously a man, but his body smells like powder, which can be explained." Got it. And his hands, pampered hands that haven't suffered."
"What he said casually yesterday made me feel very strange. He said that you were weaker than ordinary people when you were young, and you only ate barley. How could he know how you were when you were a child, a book boy who has been with you for less than a month?"
"I asked the fifth prince to search for this jade bead, and finally found a jade pavilion. This kind of jade bead looks ordinary, but in fact, each pair is different and unique."
"According to the boss in the Jade Pavilion, there are 34 jade beads in total, and they were made into two jade bracelets. They were bought by a man and a woman half a year ago. One of the two jade beads is engraved with a Words, dragon and pheasant."
As Ji Xiamo said, he motioned to Jin Wuji who was beside him. Jin Wuji understood, turned and left the living room, and brought back a middle-aged man.
The man bowed into the living room, knelt on the ground, shaking like chaff, not daring to raise his head.
"Let's take a closer look, those two people were the ones who went to your store to buy jade bracelets that day." Ji Xiamo said.
The man raised his head tremblingly, looked at Pan Zilong and Xiaozhi for a moment, and kowtowed again and again. "That's right, it's the two of them. Although the girl has changed into a man's clothes, the villain will not admit her mistake."
Pan Zilong closed his eyes, with despair on his pale face.
Ji Xiamo waved his hand to signal the man to step back, took the brocade box from Jin Wuji, and threw it in front of Pan Zilong, and two bracelets made of jade beads fell out of the box. "This is what Guard Jin found in your room."
"In addition, I entrusted the Fifth Prince to send people to Pan Han'er's hometown, and secretly searched and found the midwife who gave birth to Pan Han'er's mother, Luo Yao. I learned that Luo Yao gave birth to a son instead of a daughter. ! The single character is named Pheasant!"
"Pan Zilong, what else do you have to say now!!!"
"Heh! Hahaha..." Pan Zilong covered his face decadently, laughing like crazy. "I thought that if everyone is dead, I can take the little pheasant away and find a place to live in seclusion. No one will separate us again. But, after all the calculations, you, Ji Xiamo, have not been counted. Appear."
"..." Ji Xiamo
Did he hear something he shouldn't have heard?
"Don't blame him!!" Little Pheasant stood up and stood in front of Ji Xiamo, shouting loudly. "It's me, it's all my fault!!"
"Little Pheasant..."
"I hate the Pan family. I returned to the Pan family just to get revenge, but I didn't expect to meet Zilong. I couldn't control my heart and fell in love with him. I clearly know that this is taboo and incest. I won't end well with him, but I can't control it..."
"Little pheasant!!" Pan Zilong yelled, struggling to get up and hug the little pheasant tightly in his arms, looking at Ji Xiamo coldly. "I killed Pan Zikai! It has nothing to do with the little pheasant."
"Zi Long……"
"I like the little pheasant. If a man loves him, he loves it. People here can't tolerate us, so let's go. The world is so big, there will always be a place for us." Pan Zilong looked down at the little pheasant whose face was full of tears. , eyes full of tenderness.
"Everyone was busy with my father's birthday party that night. I was intimate with Xiaozhi behind the rockery, discussing about elopement, but I didn't want to be heard by that bastard Pan Zikai. He ignored me and Xiaozhi's suffering. Begging, insisting on reporting to my father, I was impatient, so I could only kill him."
"After killing Pan Zikai, I brought him back into the room and knocked over the candlestick. I only wanted to cause Pan Zikai's accidental death, but I didn't expect to kill so many people!"
"Nonsense!" Qin Yan yelled angrily, glaring at Pan Zilong with wide eyes, wishing he could chop him up with a knife.
"Master Pan was also killed and burned. Everyone in the entire Pan residence died before the fire started. The entire Pan residence was doused with a lot of kerosene. Could it be that you did all of this?"
"We don't know!" Xiaozhi raised his head and stared at Qin Yan in disbelief. "Zilong and I just killed Pan Zikai, moved them to the room and burned them, and then left. We don't know anything else!"
"How dare you speak hard when you are about to die! Pan Zilong! With 37 lives, you will kill your father and brother, and you will not be able to pay off your debt!"
Pan Zilong sneered. "It's your inability to find out the real murderer, and now it's all on me."
"you……"
"Come here!" Feng Shaojin frowned and called a group of guards coldly, not wanting to talk nonsense, and surrounded Pan Zilong and Xiaozhi.
"Take these two people back to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and judge after hearing!"
"Yes!!"
"One person does things and one person is responsible. If you want to kill or kill, you can do whatever you want, let go of the little pheasant!!"
"It's your incompetence!! You can't find out the real murderer! Stupid officials!!"
…………
"Are you okay?" Jin Wuji walked to Ji Xiamo's side, his eyes flashed with worry.
Ji Xiamo raised his head, shook his head silently, his frown was never loosened.
"Ji Xiamo!" Qin Yan walked to Ji Xiamo's side with a smile, and wanted to give him a love punch, but was stopped by Jin Wuji's cold eyes, and he was stillborn.
Qin Yan rubbed his hands sleepily, and smiled dryly. "Ji Xiamo, okay! I really underestimated you. You actually solved a case that had no clue."
Ji Xiamo cast a cool glance at Qin Yan, and walked out the door without saying a word.
Feng Shaojin followed, looked at Ji Xiamo's furrowed brows, and spoke in a deep voice. "What's wrong? You don't seem happy."
Ji Xiamo paused, was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know what's going on, but I always feel like I've forgotten something very important."
"Maybe it's because you're too tired these days? Then you should rest well, and I'll make a contribution to your father." Feng Shaojin reached out and patted Ji Xiamo's shoulder, comforting him.
Ji Xiamo nodded hesitantly and said nothing more.
The three of them left Pan's house, and Feng Shaojin got into the sedan chair and went back to the Five Princes' Mansion.Qin Yan didn't bother Ji Xiamo anymore, said goodbye to Ji Xiamo, and went back to his home.
Sitting in the carriage, Ji Xiamo twirled the bone fan in his hand for a while, recalling what happened just now in his mind, only to feel a severe pain in his head.
Jin Wuji reached out and pressed Ji Xiamo on his shoulder, and spoke in a low voice. "take a break."
Ji Xiamo nestled in Jin Wuji's arms, silent for a long time, and said hesitantly, "Brother Jin, I think Pan Zilong is not the only murderer."
"Rest first, and then look for evidence."
"Does Brother Jin trust me?"
"kindness."
"...Brother Jin, I don't believe it. I can't find evidence to overturn my inference just now."
"Get some sleep first."
"it is good."
Brother Jin, will you always be here?
Just like now, as long as I need it, I will always find you when I open my eyes.

Ji Xiamo was lazily leaning against the round table in front of the window, throwing three glazed dice
