Xiao Xu felt creepy when he thought about how some women, after getting the handkerchief, spread all kinds of rumors about Shen Yanjin.
They must be crazy about wanting Shen Yanjin!
If she used this handkerchief to threaten the beast, she could guarantee that something would happen soon.
Not everyone can enjoy the treatment of the heroine, and as for her... it's just an accident.
She is not a human.
Xiao Xu reached out and poked the handkerchief, complaining in his heart: Fortunately, I got the handkerchief back, otherwise who knows what would have happened. This evil bastard has no self-awareness at all and throws away personal belongings carelessly.
She was heartbroken for him.
The candlelight flickered red, Xiao Xu lay on the table, staring at the word "Chen" in the corner of the handkerchief, pressing it with his index finger as if to vent his anger.
Her eyes grew darker.
After yawning.
Xiao Xu put away the handkerchief, got on the bed, pulled the quilt over himself and lay down.
His eyes slowly closed and he fell into sleep.
Before falling asleep, she wondered strangely why she felt so sleepy... early tonight?
What Xiao Xu didn't know was that the handkerchief he had snatched back was stained with Shen Yanjin's scent.
Vertical day.
After a good sleep, Xiao Xu stretched, kicked off the quilt, moved to the edge of the bed, put on his shoes, walked to the door and pushed it open to go out.
I went to the well in the yard to fetch a basin of water, went back to my room to wash up, patted my face, and then watered the various flowers in front of the wall.
Holding a large water scoop, he squinted his eyes and scanned the area, his gaze involuntarily falling on the place where he had squatted that night.
There was still no line of words, and no new morning glories grew.
Xiao Xu walked over, adjusted her skirt, and squatted down. She scanned the wall carefully, wanting to reach out and touch it, but then she seemed to think of something and withdrew her hand.
She stood up and her hand involuntarily reached to her ear, pinching her earlobe as usual, but she pinched the earlobe instead. She hissed in pain, dropped the water ladle, and hurried into the room.
He looked at the only bronze mirror in the room.
It's a red earring.
A golden bird-shaped ornament hangs in the middle, with three small white beads hanging below, and finally ending with a red bead.
Exquisite and clever, very beautiful.
With such high-quality workmanship, it must be from a famous workshop.
Xiao Xu touched the golden bird and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Even she herself didn't notice.
After going out to the kitchen to eat a bowl of meat porridge to fill his stomach, Xiao Xu returned to his room to get his talisman.
In order to prevent herself from encountering more evil spirits, she had to replenish the talisman paper that she had used up that night. In her eyes, talisman paper was like money, the more the better.
…
Golden Palace.
The old emperor stood up suddenly, threw out a memorial, and angrily said: "What is this? Many men, women and children have disappeared in the capital recently? Are the military officials of the Southern Court all good-for-nothings?"
The ministers immediately knelt down and raised their voices: "Your Majesty, please calm down..."
The only person in the hall who was not kneeling looked at the scene indifferently, with no expression on his face.
He stood straight and was tall, making the people kneeling in front of him, behind him, on his left and right sides feel an invisible oppressive force.
The old emperor glanced at him and said, "Shen Aiqing, come to the front."
Shen Yanjin then stepped forward. His official hair had been changed to light black, and compared with the past, he looked completely different.
Standing in front of the hall, he stopped, neither looking up nor looking down, and bowed to the old emperor.
The old emperor stroked his beard, narrowed his cloudy eyes and said, "Since the Southern Court is incompetent, you can take over. As long as you solve the missing person case, I will promote you to a higher rank."
