The bailiff immediately told the story again.

After a brief silence, Xue Bufan pretended to be impatient to fool the man.

"Perhaps they couldn't sleep at night and lit some calming incense in their own rooms. Otherwise, why are their rooms intact?"

"They are just a bunch of exiled prisoners. Why make such a fuss? Go back to sleep. If you delay your journey tomorrow, be careful of being whipped!"

After saying that, Xue Bufan strode away with his men without even looking back.

Wen Jingxian and the other two always felt that something was very strange, but they couldn't find any clue.

After confirming that everyone was just asleep, he had no choice but to leave.

Xie Chengyuan slept on the floor of the room.

After seeing everyone leave, he slowly opened his eyes and looked towards the most inconspicuous spot under the bed.

"Come out, everyone has left." Xie Chengyuan spoke in a hoarse voice.

...

...

Shen Shuli: “…”

Shen Shuli slowly crawled out from under the bed, glanced at the four teenagers who didn't react, and then slowly walked to Xie Chengyuan's position.

"When did you wake up?" Shen Shuli asked.

Xie Chengyuan answered honestly: "I woke up when that person poured the drug into the room."

The corners of Shen Shuli's mouth twitched. She really wanted to ask him how he was going to fight back when he knew someone was plotting something bad, but this was none of her business.

When the accident happened at the post station, Shen Shuli was very worried about Mu Wanjun and had no choice but to climb into the room through the window outside.

But almost all the rooms were lit, so Shen Shuli could only choose a place with no lights on to climb through the window.

There were only two rooms on this floor without lights on. Shen Shuli guessed that either no one was in these two rooms or they were fast asleep, so she randomly chose a room and climbed through the window.

But she didn't expect that there was someone in the room, and it happened to be the room where Xie Chengyuan was.

The moment she entered the room, she immediately realized that someone had put drugs in the room.

Just as she was about to take action, she suddenly felt a chill on her back. Turning back, she met Xie Chengyuan's eyes as he stood up.

At this time, Xie Chengyuan's head was wrapped in cotton strips, with only his eyes and nose exposed.

The moonlight shining on him made him look like a walking mummy, which was very creepy!

Shen Shuli was so frightened that she almost screamed out loud!

"Why are you here?!" Xie Chengyuan asked in slight surprise.

Xie Chengyuan never expected that the thief was actually her.

Just as he was about to get up and move, he saw someone climbing in through the window.

Just as he was about to kill the thief, the other party turned around.

He recognized her immediately and stopped in time.

But at this moment, Xie Chengyuan felt inexplicably guilty.

All along, he had been interacting with her as Chu Jingxuan. How should he explain to her that he suddenly became Xie Chengyuan?

"Do you know me?"

Shen Shuli was a little embarrassed at first, but she quickly realized that something was wrong and asked.

Shen Shuli had met Chu Jingxuan once in Qingyun County before, and when Jin Zhaozui met Chu Jingxuan later, he was always wearing a mask.

That night at the General’s Mansion.

Xie Chengyuan's body and face were covered with wounds and blood, and it was very dark, so she didn't recognize that Xie Chengyuan was Chu Jingxuan at all.

Later on the road to exile.

Xie Chengyuan's entire body was wrapped in cotton strips, with only his eyes and nose exposed.

Shen Shuli couldn't see the other person's face anymore.

She was very curious about how Xie Chengyuan knew her.

Xie Chengyuan also reacted at this moment and realized that her face was still wrapped in cloth and she couldn't see what she looked like at all.

At this moment, he really wanted to make up something to fool people.

But I thought that my injuries would heal sooner or later, and the cloth on my face would have to be removed sooner or later.

Sooner or later, she will recognize herself.

If they keep deceiving each other, there may be countless troubles and misunderstandings between them.

He didn't want to go that far.

In this case, why not take this opportunity to explain it to her?

After thinking this through, Xie Chengyuan did not answer directly, but slowly untied the cloth wrapped around his face.

Shen Shuli didn't know what he wanted to do, and seeing that he was having some difficulty solving the problem, she said, "Let me help you."

Xie Chengyuan paused, nodded slightly, and took the initiative to sit down at the table to facilitate the other party's operation.

Shen Shuli moved gently, fearing to hurt the other person.

She still remembers the bloody look on Xie Chengyuan's face.

I don’t know how his face has recovered after being healed by the spiritual spring water.

After untying all the strips of cloth on his face, Shen Shuli walked around in front of him.

When I saw his face clearly, I was surprised that his face had completely recovered.

He was very satisfied with the effect of the spiritual spring water and couldn't help nodding his head.

"Your face has recovered, but the injuries on your body..."

"etc!"

But soon.

Shen Shuli suddenly realized something and stared at Xie Chengyuan in shock.

"You, you, you, how could you and..." Shen Shuli pointed at Xie Chengyuan's face with shock in her heart.

Xie Chengyuan's body has been inexplicably tense since he saw Shen Shuli.

He immediately answered quickly: "I was pretending to be Chu Jingxuan who was drunk today. It was me who met you that day."

Shen Shuli was even more shocked!

She never thought that the Chu Jingxuan she met that day was actually Xie Chengyuan!

On the night when the General's Mansion was ransacked, Shen Shuli saw with her own eyes how serious Xie Chengyuan's injuries were!

It was hard for her to imagine that he, who was almost paralyzed, could escape from the encirclement of the Jinwu Guards and appear in Jinzhaozui to meet her as if nothing had happened!

Shen Shuli pursed her lips tightly, her heart unable to calm down for a long time.

He could have found many reasons to refuse to meet me.

But he still kept his promise, and when I wanted to see him, he came to meet me despite all the difficulties!

This boy...

"Then how did you get away to see me that day?"

Shen Shuli was silent for a long time before asking with mixed feelings.

"I used up all the medicine you gave me, and I was able to barely hold on to see you."

Xie Chengyuan said very calmly, as if he was talking about something very trivial.

Shen Shuli was even more shocked.

"You, you, you know it's me?"

"I didn't know at first, but I remember the smell on you. It was exactly the same as when you pretended to be a maid. I confirmed it when I saw you again in Jin Zhao Zui."

Xie Chengyuan was inexplicably in a very good and proud mood at the moment.

He knew that he had not recognized the wrong person.

Shen Shuli was speechless.

She didn't expect her identity to be revealed like this.

Only then did she realize that she was using spiritual spring water every day, and the unique spiritual fragrance of spiritual spring water was difficult to imitate by other scents.

"Then why did you fool me with a fake identity in the beginning, and now tell me the truth?" Shen Shuli asked in confusion with mixed feelings.

"Because sooner or later I will have to stand up, and sooner or later this face will have to face you." Xie Chengyuan was very frank.

"I concealed it before because the court was too active. The Xie family has too many secret enemies. I think you know what happened on the day we met. I am worried that I might implicate you. I hope you don't mind."

Shen Shuli didn't expect that this young man would think so much in the short time they first met.

How could she blame him for this?

This young man.

Too sensible, aren’t you?
