The look from the Fifth Prince made Yu Jin stop smiling immediately.

He had long guessed that this bastard had no good intentions in appearing here, so he had the time to talk nonsense with him, but he didn't expect that he was not wronged at all.

This bastard hasn't let go of his dirty thoughts towards Ah Si yet. It seems that he didn't smash the wine jar hard enough.

"What are you doing here, Brother Wu?"

Although the Fifth Prince was of a rough character, he was not stupid. He felt an inexplicable chill when the other party's expression suddenly changed.

"Why, do I need to report to my seventh brother where I'm going?"

Yu Jin smiled and said, "That's not the case. I was just asking casually. After all, this doesn't seem like a place where Fifth Brother would come."

The fifth prince looked at Yu Jin, wondering what the other person was up to.

He didn't think the boy was just asking casually. That day, the boy said he was drunk, and the wine jar fell on his head.

Thinking of this, the Fifth Prince had the urge to raise his hand and touch his head.

This impulse made the fifth prince extremely angry.

It's not like he's afraid of this kid, so why is there this involuntary reaction?

"Then why is Seventh Brother here again?"

Yu Jin smiled: "Fifth brother lives in the palace and may not know that my younger brother's place of residence is nearby, so of course he will be here."

"Oh, by the way, your palace is not built yet." The fifth prince finally found a way to strike back at his opponent, and said with a sneer, "It's really hard for you, my seventh brother. How about you stay at my brother's house for a few days?"

"I appreciate Fifth Brother's kindness. But I like to drink from time to time. Once I drink too much, I want to do things I like. It would be bad if I cause trouble for Fifth Brother." Yu Jin said, looking at the Fifth Prince with a half-smile, "I never thought Fifth Brother would like to watch the excitement of weddings and funerals."

"Who likes to watch this?" the fifth prince blurted out.

Yu Jin narrowed his eyes, his gaze as sharp as knives.

Very good, it’s confirmed, this bastard is here just to target me.

At this point, the Fifth Prince lost interest in meeting a beautiful woman and said with a dark face, "Since you don't have the guts to fight, I won't waste my words on you."

"Fifth brother, take care."

Yu Jin stood where he was, staring motionlessly at the Fifth Prince and his servants as they walked away, then he quickly walked towards Quezi Hutong.

Returning to the house with a crooked jujube tree in front of the door, Erniu, who was eating braised beef, immediately looked up at his owner.

The big dog has a very sensitive nose and has already smelled the faint smell of blood on its owner.

It looked down at the bowl full of marinated beef, struggled for a moment, then finally stood up and came to its owner, sniffing with concern.

"It's okay." As Erniu became smarter in the past few months, the man and the dog had a better understanding of each other. Yu Jin stroked Erniu's head and said comfortingly.

Erniu then let out a low cry and ran back to continue fighting with the pot of marinated beef.

"master--"

Yu Jin raised his hand to interrupt Leng Ying's question: "Has Long Dan come back?"

“Not back yet.”

Yu Jin walked to the stone table under the albizzia tree and sat down. He tapped the table with his slender fingers and said, "Tea."

Leng Ying immediately brought the teacup and teapot, poured a cup of tea and passed it over.

Yu Jin took it and drank it sip by sip. In his mind were Jiang Si's ruthless words and the figure of the Fifth Prince wandering around the Dongping Marquis's Mansion.

Before he knew it, he had finished a pot of tea and finally returned.

Long Dan did not come back alone, he was dragging someone with him, or to be more precise, a corpse.

Seeing Yu Jian, Long Dan threw the body to the ground and knelt on one knee: "Master, there is no one left alive."

Yu Jin walked over and looked down at the male corpse on the ground.

The man's face was ashen, with blood smeared at the corners of his mouth.

"Death from poison?"

"Yes, when I was about to take him down, he broke his poisonous fangs."

The wind blew, and the rolled-up albizzia flowers fluttered down onto the male corpse. The beautiful pink and white flowers formed a sharp contrast with the horrible male corpse, making the scene seem even more bizarre and eerie.

Yu Jin didn't care, he squatted down, grabbed the corpse's right hand and examined it carefully.

There was a thin layer of silk on the man's hands.

"Master, this man's martial arts are not weak, and I only managed to win by a narrow margin." Long Dan said in a low voice.

Long Dan and Leng Ying had been following Yu Jin for a long time. Although one of them was smiling and the other was paralyzed, their skills were extraordinary. The one who could make Long Dan feel exhausted was not just any guard.

Yu Jin looked serious.

It is not easy to raise assassins, and why would such carefully trained assassins attack him?

This is what puzzles Yu Jian the most.

He was just an idle prince. Even if he had some power, it was in the south. With his return to the capital, that little power was nothing in the eyes of others. To say that it would offend some people was not the case at all.

The appearance of this assassin is very interesting.

Yu Jin's lips curled up slightly. Instead of feeling distressed, she found it interesting.

"Master, what should we do next?"

Yu Jin smiled coldly: "What should I do? Of course I should report to the authorities."

It just so happens that I don't like those people of Lao Wu, and I can't kill them in a short time, so it would be nice to collect some interest first.

Since Zhen Shicheng returned to the capital, he has been involved in one case after another. Although he is very busy, he feels like a fish in water.

He likes to vindicate the deceased and bring the murderer to justice, which makes him happy.

However, the eldest son's non-cooperation in recent days has obviously affected Lord Zhen's good mood.

"Where are you going now?" Zhen Shicheng strolled in the courtyard during the break and once again caught his son who was about to go out.

Zhen Heng lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly: "A friend asked his son to go to the forest to appreciate orchids and paint."

Why is his father so idle? Is there no case for him to solve? He just stares at him all day long.

Zhen Shicheng's face darkened when he heard this: "Appreciating orchids and painting? What's the point of mixing these useless things in? If you have the time, wait until I get off work and accompany me to visit someone."

Zhen Heng's temples were throbbing.

People say he is as gentle as jade, but who could have known that deep down he always has the urge to hit me!

He was a scholar, and reciting poems and appreciating flowers with friends were obviously common pastimes, but why did it become so unbearable in the eyes of his father? Don't think he didn't know that his father wanted to force the girl he liked on him by taking him to visit friends.

Maybe if he goes to visit someone's house with his father today, his father will be able to arrange the marriage for him tomorrow.

Zhen Heng knew what was going on and had made up his mind not to go out with Zhen Shicheng.

"Appreciating orchids and painting are just a reason for a small gathering. After all, my son will need support from his classmates when he enters the officialdom in the future, so he can't miss all gatherings. Besides, my son has already made an appointment with someone - "

Seeing his son find another excuse to escape, Zhen Shicheng waved his hand unhappily and said, "Get out of here."

Zhen Heng: “…” He must have picked it up, right?

Come to think of it, he was actually quite curious about what kind of girl his father had chosen.

Thinking of the female coroner who was holding a human head and studying it next to Zhen Shicheng, Zhen Heng's mouth twitched.

No, he should stop being curious. Curiosity can bring bad luck!
