Chapter 51: Men Fall in Love
After listening to the two people's opinions, Shen Shixu stood up and said to them: "Let's go, let's go to Chunshui Hutong, there are some things we need to see in person."
As soon as he walked out, he saw Xiao Jinyi who came to look for him, so Xiao Jinyi followed him.
"Why are you here?" Shen Shixu asked Xiao Jinyi who had caught up with him. Normally, the morning court would not have ended at this time!
Shen Shixu didn't know that Emperor Wu'an and other ministers deliberately prolonged the time because they wanted to hear gossip. That's why he didn't go to court today, and the morning court ended in less than an hour.
"I didn't see you during the morning court session, and I was worried that something had happened to you, so I went to your house after the court session. Xiao Shitou told me that you were called away by people from the Dali Temple in the middle of the night.
I thought there might be a case, so I came over to take a look. But you, with so many people out, have you found the murderer? ”
Xiao Jinyi believed in Shen Shixu's ability very much. Although it had only been half a day since Shen Shixu left home, Xiao Jinyi felt that Shen Shixu already knew who the murderer was.
Shen Shixu did not disappoint his blind trust. He asked Jiang Bin and the others to go to Chunshui Hutong first, and he lagged behind a few steps and walked side by side with Xiao Jinyi.
"I do have a candidate in mind. Going there now is just to fill in a missing link. Just now, I asked Jiang Bin and Zhang Ming for their opinions on this case."
"What did they say? Are you satisfied with the answer?" Xiao Jinyi asked, but looking at Shen Shixu's expression, he had already guessed the answer in his heart.
If they had answered well, Shen Shixu's expression would not be so calm at this time.
Shen Shixu glanced at the backs of Jiang Bin and the others, and chatted with Xiao Jinyi about Jiang Bin and the others' learning progress, "Although I only accepted two apprentices, I also taught Zhang Ming as my apprentice.
But these two people can only be described as ordinary. Zhang Ming has a thorough understanding of the ways of the world, but he has a quick temper and is easily swayed by other people's emotions.
This may be the reason why he can maintain human relationships so well. After all, people who can empathize with others are mostly sincere.
This case was a murder in the heat of the moment. The deceased said something I shouldn't have said, so he deserved to die.
He didn't do any big evil, but he committed many small evils. He was a very annoying guy, and people wanted him dead.
When asking his neighbors, one of them was extremely angry and said that if he hadn't been concerned about his family, he would have fought with the deceased. This sentence made Zhang Ming think that he was the murderer.
But in fact it was not the case. The coroner judged that the wounds on the deceased's body were caused by a butcher's knife. The person who said this was the accountant of a cloth shop. He was thin and was no match for the deceased, so it could not have been him.
Jiang Bin opposed Zhang Ming's opinion, but he said that he didn't know who the murderer was, and his view was not comprehensive. He missed some things and still needed to practice more. ”
Xiao Jinyi looked at Shen Shixu who was speaking at length in front of him, his eyes full of gentle smiles, "Ah Xu is obviously younger than Jiang Bin and Zhang Ming, but seeing how you take care of them and teach them everywhere, I feel that you are the elder."
Hearing him say this, Shen Shixu couldn't help but touch his face and said worriedly: "I heard from my mother that worrying too much will make you old. I take care of the children every day, so I'm not getting old, am I?"
Shen Shixu panicked and put his face in front of Xiao Jinyi, his eyes full of worry, and stared at him with a little fear, "Your Highness, show me quickly, have I changed since last month?"
Xiao Jinyi looked at the handsome face in front of him. His white jade face had tiny pores, a pair of smart fox eyes were filled with worry, and his bright red lips were pursed because of nervousness.
Shen Shixu just stared at Xiao Jinyi, as if Xiao Jinyi was everything to him. Although he knew that his idea was impossible, Xiao Jinyi's throat still tightened because of this impossible idea. "I haven't aged. I'm still as good-looking as before. No, I should be better looking than before."
Before, Shen Shixu still had the spirit of a young man, but now, after having experienced the officialdom, he has a more restrained aura.
From the dazzling morning sun, it turned into a bright and cold moon. Although it is not as dazzling as the morning sun, it is as dazzling as the moon.
After hearing that he had not aged but had become more vicissitudes of life, Shen Shixu wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead in a slightly funny way, "Fortunately, fortunately, if I had become ugly and could not find a wife, my mother would have scolded me to death when I returned."
Xiao Jinyi's heart, which had been beating like a deer because of Shen Shixu's approach to him, seemed to stop at this moment, and he felt a pain in his heart.
Later on the way to Chunshui Hutong, Xiao Jinyi didn't say a word, and his whole body was emitting cold air. Shen Shixu, who was right next to him, shivered from the cold air.
He turned his head to look at Xiao Jinyi and saw that his face was tense and his eyes were lowered to look at his own hands, which were clenched so tightly that it seemed as if they were bleeding.
Although Shen Shixu didn't understand why he suddenly got angry, he still handed him a light blue handkerchief.
When Xiao Jinyi saw the handkerchief he handed over, he felt a little better, but he was reluctant to use it and just held it in his hand.
Xiao Jinyi held a green handkerchief in his hand, holding it tightly as if he was holding a piece of driftwood in the waves. "Ah Xu, what do you think about gay love? Would you fall in love with a man?"
Shen Shixu was a little surprised that he would ask this question. He looked at him in shock, and an explosive idea appeared in his mind.
Does Xiao Jinyi like men?
Xiao Jinyi looked at his shocked expression and felt very nervous. Although he had already thought in his mind that even if Shen Shixu didn't like men or himself, he must be with Shen Shixu, he still wanted to know the answer!
Shen Shixu lowered his head and thought for a while before answering, "I don't reject falling in love with men. As for whether I would be with a man, I have never thought about it before. But I just thought about it. If I really like it, a man is not a bad choice."
When Xiao Jinyi heard this answer, he felt like he was saved. The coldness around him disappeared at once, and he felt like he was bathed in spring breeze.
Shen Shixu watched him change his mood again, and silently complained to 011 in his heart, "I never thought that the famous cold-faced god of war would be such a person with such changeable emotions, but I actually think he is a little cute! 】
011 felt a little uneasy when he heard this, as if his master was about to be kidnapped. But it was his first time to build a system and also his first time to bind people, so he wondered if he was overthinking it.
