Because neither Zhan Zhao nor Shen Chuyi had eaten, the three returned to the dining room.At this time, the people are almost dispersed, so it is equivalent to the sense of existence of the three of them.Shen Chuyi buried his head in the meal, a little cautious.Zhan Zhao was casual, and asked Bai Yutang while eating, "Will there be any gains in Prince Qi's Mansion?"

Bai Yutang stood on the table with his elbows, propped his chin, and said: "The harvest is not counted, but I have inquired about some things."

"Oh?" Zhan Zhao picked the ending lightly, waiting for Bai Yutang to continue.

Bai Yutang said: "There is no other wound on King Qi's body, only a knife in the abdomen. I heard from the imperial doctor that fortunately the bleeding was stopped in time, so King Qi's life was saved." After a pause, he looked at Shen Chuyi, "Shen Chuyi saw it before That uncle is the steward of Prince Qi's mansion. Everyone is called Uncle Song. In fact, he is a fellow countryman who used to be King Qi. I heard that King Qi was often taken care of by him, so he took this uncle Song as soon as he was bestowed by the Holy Lord. .”

"This Uncle Song is a very nice person. After following King Qi, he put all his heart and soul on King Qi. So when he found out that King Qi was injured today, it is understandable that he might have some misunderstandings under the excitement."

"But Uncle Song doesn't seem to think it's a misunderstanding..." Shen Chuyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Bai Yutang pursed his lips and nodded, "That's the case."

"Fifth Brother, did you ask Uncle Song about what happened?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"Are you still worried about what Fifth Master is doing?" Bai Yutang asked back before continuing, "I asked, the other party only spoke to me after the imperial physician confirmed that King Qi's life was not in danger."

"The king of Qi just came back from other places today. Uncle Song went to pick him up at the gate of the city himself. At the gate of the imperial city, it was because King Qi was going to enter the palace to meet the saint. At that time, Uncle Song left temporarily because of trivial matters. When he came back, he saw The king of Qi was lying on the ground. Coincidentally, Shen Chuyi was still standing beside him."

"How long has Uncle Song been away?"

"It is said that there is not even a stick of incense."

"Then what happened to the half stick of incense?" Zhan Zhao put down his chopsticks and lowered his head in thought.

"I don't know. The city gate guards interrogated us before, but they didn't see what happened. The thing that really got attention was when Uncle Song pointed at Shen Chuyi and said he had killed someone." Bai Yutang said.

"How did Uncle Song describe the scene when he saw Miss Shen?"

"Cough." Bai Yutang coughed, then pulled his throat to imitate Uncle Song's speech, his eyes widened, and he seemed extremely excited, "She is a murderer, and the Kaifeng government must arrest her to death! I When she arrived, she was standing next to King Qi, her hands were still covered with blood! At her feet was the dagger she had thrown away when she saw me! My darling, fortunately I arrived in time, otherwise the murderer would definitely We will not let our King Qi go!"

Shen Chuyi was about to cry: "I haven't picked up that knife before, okay? Where did you get 'throw away'?"

This Uncle Song is clearly talking nonsense with his eyes open...

"That is to say, Uncle Song didn't see Miss Shen murder." Zhan Zhao said.

Bai Yutang nodded: "Miss Shen is suspected, but it's not enough to convict."

"Who else knows that King Qi will return to Bianjing?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Bai Yutang was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly stood up and said, "I really didn't ask this question. I have to go to Prince Qi's mansion again, and take a look at Prince Qi's situation."

As he spoke, he slightly nodded to Zhan Zhao and Shen Chuyi, turned around and ran out.

Bai Yutang simply left as soon as he said it, and he really acted vigorously and resolutely!

At some point, all the people who used to eat in the kitchen left, and now only Zhan Zhao and Shen Chuyi were left.

Shen Chuyi swallowed, and decided to continue eating.

Zhan Zhao picked up a chopstick dish and put it in his bowl, turned to look at Shen Chuyi, and brought the chopstick dish for her by the way, and said, "No one just eats."

"Yes yes yes." Shen Chu nodded, ate the food that Zhan Zhao gave him, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhan."

Zhan Zhao took a few mouthfuls of food, probably because he felt too quiet, he thought for a while, and asked, "When Miss Shen saw King Qi, was King Qi conscious?"

Shen Chu nodded: "Yes, he even called for help."

Zhan Zhao said, "It means that he was injured not long ago."

Zhan Zhao was silent for a while, and then said: "It seems that King Qi was conscious when he was injured, which means...he must have seen the murderer."

The frontal injury meant that the murderer was stabbed head-on.

Even if the murderer is masked, men and women can still be judged based on their body shape.

In this way, as long as King Qi wakes up, Shen Chuyi should be cleared of suspicion.

But... just sit and wait for King Qi to wake up?

What is the murderer's purpose in killing King Qi? Will he come back to assassinate King Qi after knowing that King Qi is not dead?

Just as Zhan Zhao was thinking, Shen Chuyi's cough brought him back to his senses.

The other party was clearing his throat, and a pair of eyes were staring at him.

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows: "Miss Shen, do you have something to say?"

"Uh, that..." Miss Shen felt embarrassed, but she had to say, "Lord Zhan, I'm sorry."

You must apologize.

"What is this for?"

"Master Zhan, I already know your intentions for today's matter."

"It's my small belly, I'm indiscriminate, I'm doing it... I know you've been very polite to me, that's fine, I'm sorry."

After a pause, Shen Chuyi said again.

"Also, thank you."

"Ms. Shen doesn't need to be like this." Zhan Zhao originally looked at her, then turned his head away and said slowly, "Ms. Zhan can understand Miss Shen's mood."

After a short silence, he spoke again.

"I heard from Ms. Shen Lanhe that Ms. Shen's hometown uses various methods to handle cases, and she can even identify the murderer in time. Ms. Shen shouldn't be so wronged there."

Shen Chuyi shook his head and said, "Yes, the technology of handling crimes in the future will be higher than it is now. After all, machines and technology can be used there. But... criminals can also use this power. In fact, it's the same everywhere. It's a blessing, not a curse, and it's a disaster that can't be avoided."

Shen Chuyi suddenly became a sensible person, which made Zhan Zhao a little uncomfortable.He looked at her, and said instead: "Where misfortune goes, good fortune will come."

"I borrowed a good word from Mr. Zhan." Shen Chuyi said.

"Lady Shen will accompany Zhan to visit Prince Qi's mansion later."

Seeing that Shen Chuyi finished eating, Zhan Zhao stood up and cleaned up the dishes on the table.

Shen Chuyi immediately helped Zhan Zhao tidy up, and asked, "Go to Prince Qi's mansion? Is the old man willing to see me?"

"If you are not happy, there is nothing you can do. If you don't want to make things worse, you have to solve it as soon as possible."

After all, it was King Qi who was injured, and the imperial doctor will definitely alarm the emperor when he comes to see him.

If the emperor interfered, things would be much more complicated.At that time, Shen Chuyi wouldn't be able to eat and talk here so comfortably.

"En." Shen Chu nodded.

Watching Zhan Zhao pick up all the bowls and chopsticks, his hands are empty.As soon as Shen Chu stretched out his hand to help him share the burden, the other party shook his head and said, "Miss Shen just wait for me at the gate of Kaifeng Mansion."

"Okay, Mr. Zhan." After Zhan Zhao said so, Shen Chuyi agreed.

Zhan Zhao nodded at him, turned around and walked towards the door.

When he reached the door, he stopped again and looked back at her.

Shen Chuyi just took a step, and wanted to follow Zhan Zhao out.Seeing him stop, she stopped too, looking at him wonderingly.

Zhan Zhao raised the corners of his lips and said softly, "I forgot to say that."

The sound was soft, like scratching an itch with a feather.

"Miss Shen, long time no see."
