Conan's physique? The Crown Princess is involved in a murder case again

Jing Zhichen's sudden appearance caught Xu Xiuzhu off guard.

Others did not know this Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace who had just returned to the capital, but Xu Xiuzhu did.

"presumptuous!"

Xu Xiuzhu shouted loudly, wishing he could tear Nanny Wu's mouth apart.

"My lord, see His Highness the Crown Prince."

Due to the rules, Xu Xiuzhu did not dare to take action in front of Jing Zhichen and could only kneel down and salute hurriedly.

When Nanny Wu, who had just insulted Jing Zhichen, heard Xu Xiuzhu call him "Prince", she was so scared that her legs went limp and she almost fainted.

Jing Zhichen did not respond, but instead looked at Xu Xingyin.

Xu Xingyin was still wearing the same coarse cloth clothes, most of which were stained red by the spilled blood.

The simple clothes are out of place with the gorgeous clothes in this courtyard.

She just lay there motionless, like a shattered rag doll.

Seeing this, Jing Zhichen became a little angrier for no reason. He took out a pill and fed it to Xu Xingyin before saying something casually.

"The Xu family's way of entertaining guests is really unique."

Jing Zhichen didn't ask him to get up, and Xu Xiuzhu didn't dare to move, his face full of shame.

"The words and deeds of this old servant in the mansion are inappropriate. This is my fault. Please punish him, Your Highness."

"No need." Jing Zhichen chuckled, his tone cold, "Please ask this maid to explain the words to me clearly."

After she finished speaking, a secret guard came forward and picked up Nanny Wu by the collar, asking her to answer.

After Jing Zhichen spoke, no one dared to help Nanny Wu.

She was seen standing there trembling, pointing at the man who was beaten half to death on the ground and stammering as she explained.

"Your Highness, I didn't mean to do that. It was our Seventh Miss who climbed over the wall late at night to meet a strange man, and she lied to see a doctor. I was worried that the news would get out and it would be bad for the Duke's Mansion..."

"Wild man?"

Seeing Jing Zhichen's face suddenly change, Nanny Wu thought that Jing Zhichen was disgusted with Xu Xingyin's shameless behavior.

He was suddenly full of confidence, but he didn't notice that Xu Xiuzhu who was kneeling was giving him a hint, which made his eyes cramp.

"That's right! I saw it with my own eyes. I don't know where this poor fellow came from, but he thought he had some looks and dared to seduce the young lady of our mansion. He has no idea of ​​his own limitations! He is worse than pigs and dogs..."

Before Nanny Wu could finish her words, Jing Zhichen kicked her hard to the ground, breaking several ribs. She was sweating profusely from the pain but dared not cry out.

Not to mention Nanny Wu, everyone else was too frightened to speak.

For the sake of face, Xu Xiuzhu had no choice but to persuade him.

"It's all my fault for not disciplining you. I shouldn't have humiliated your Highness with my own household affairs. My daughter is really..."

"Why, Lord Guo also thinks that I am ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth?"

"No, no, no! How dare I say that to Your Highness..."

At this point, Xu Xiuzhu finally reacted and said in astonishment: "Could it be that tonight my daughter..."

"Xu Qi said that your wife was ill and came to me to borrow Mr. Huaigu."

"..."

Everyone had different expressions for a moment, and they were all frozen and unable to answer.

Jing Zhichen didn't care how ugly the other person's face was, and his tone was as cold as the wind and frost that night.

"Originally, I shouldn't be involved in your family affairs, but since it involves me, I have no choice but to intervene. This old evil slave made up rumors about me out of thin air, so I will cut out his tongue and exile him to Ganzhou. As for the others, I believe that the Duke will give me an explanation."

Xu Xiuzhu smiled awkwardly, "That's natural."

After dealing with all these, Du Huaigu walked into the yard carrying his medicine box.

He glanced at Nanny Wu who was dragged away by the secret guards, cursed her as "stubborn slave" with disgust on his face, and then walked to Jing Zhichen's side and saluted.

"Your Highness."

Jing Zhichen nodded, his eyes fell on Xu Xingyin without any compassion or sympathy, he just said coldly.

"Mr. Huaigu, please stay and treat Xu Qi and her daughter. I will not disturb you."

After saying this, Jing Zhichen quickly left the Duke's Mansion surrounded by a group of people.

The meaning of "being offended" is expressed vividly.

Du Huaigu sighed, took two steps forward to take Xu Xingyin's pulse, and then couldn't help but sigh.

Fortunately, Jing Zhichen gave Xu Xingyin the medicine in time, which temporarily protected his heart.

Otherwise, if new injuries are added before the old ones are healed, even the great gods cannot save them.

Xu Xiuzhu was already depressed because he had made Jing Zhichen unhappy for no reason. Du Huaigu was someone Jing Zhichen had left behind, so he naturally didn't dare to neglect him any further.

Even though Du Huaigu didn't look happy at all during the whole process, Xu Xiuzhu could only bear it and personally brought people to arrange housing needs for Du Huaigu.

……

Xu Xingyin had a long dream, in which he dreamed of the day when things changed in the Zhennan General’s Mansion.

That day was the day when the two good friends were getting engaged. Xu Xingyin went to the Shen Mansion to join in the fun. It was sunset when Xu Xingyin set out to return to the general's mansion.

That was the first time Xu Xingyin saw the general's mansion in such chaos.

The servants fled in all directions, gold and silver were scattered all over the ground, and the officers and soldiers in the yard were shouting with swords in their hands.

"Jiaojiao, hurry up..."

A weak call fixed Xu Xingyin there. She turned around woodenly and met her grandfather's pale face.

The old man, who had spent half his life in the military, had his hair meticulously groomed and his armor shining brightly, just as it had been hanging in his study yesterday.

And under the armor, the sharp blade was pulled out with blood and flesh, rolling up into a horrible wound, and the white bones were vaguely visible.

Xu Xingyin staggered forward and hugged his grandfather in panic.

Blood flowed out from between her fingers, soaking her lotus-colored clothes and dripping onto the cold floor, smearing the symbol of the end of life.

Then he held her hand, as if with all his strength.

"The Chen family has fought against the enemy for many years, and would rather die for the country than live in shame on the walls. I am worthy of the people and the monarch."

He struggled to put a bronze plate into her hand and opened his mouth, but no sound came out because of the pain.

The girl's tears fell on his weathered cheeks, and she kept reaching out to wipe the blood from his lips, trying her best to suppress the sadness in her heart, as if by doing this she could deceive herself and tell herself that her naughty grandfather had just fallen.

"Jiaojiao, live on..."

The moment his arms lost strength and fell, Xu Xingyin heard his own voice trembling to the point of collapse, choking with sobs that sounded almost like pleading.

"Grandpa, please don't...please open your eyes..."

"what!"

In the inner courtyard, the girl's high-pitched scream reached the sky, piercing Xu Xingyin's heavy sorrow.

She carefully placed General Zhennan's body on the ground, put the bronze plaque away properly, and ran in regardless.

I saw that all the soldiers of the Chen family were locked by the arms and pressed to the ground by the officers and soldiers. Even his grandmother, Old Lady Chen, who always had her way, was forced to kneel on the ground.
