Shen Yi's Darkness and Depression

Chapter 55 Vinegar Jar

"Brother Shuo, how did you get that palm injury?" Yun Wan asked with concern.

"During the investigation, I was injured by a hidden weapon. Fortunately, I was not poisoned." Shen Yishuo recalled that when he found the body of the magistrate, because he was too impatient, he tripped over a thin thread in the grass and triggered the mechanism. Fortunately, he hid quickly and subconsciously When he covered his cheek with his hand, he was cut by a hidden weapon.If it wasn't for his quick reaction, it might have been more serious, not to mention the disfigurement, what if he was really blind?
"Brother Shuo's investigation is really dangerous, what happened in Qingzhou?" Yun Wan asked nonchalantly.

"The local magistrate was kidnapped, and he left a note from the Ancestry of Darkness, and demanded a ransom from the government." When mentioning the Ancestry of Darkness, Shen Yishuo noticed that Yun Wan's eyes were slightly sad, presumably she knew Duanmu Chong Ze was kidnapped and killed by him.

"How is the magistrate?" Yun Wan asked with concern.

"When we found Mr. Liu in the dense forest, he had his tendons cut off and tied to a tree, bleeding to death." Shen Yishuo said while observing Yun Wan's expression.

"It's so miserable." Yun Wan asked very puzzled, "Is it really the work of the Anshang Sect Alliance?"

"In my humble opinion, it doesn't seem like it was the work of the Anshang Zongmeng. It's very likely that Lord Liu was avenged by revenge." Shen Yishuo said with certainty.

"Can you find the poisoned silver needle?" Yun Wan asked.

"No, the Dark War Clan Alliance is only for money, and there is no reason to cause people to die tragically. At that time, Master Duanmu had more sword wounds in his heart, it was already very rare, and Master Liu died even more strangely." Shen Yishuo made it clear that Yun Wan knew Her father died of poisoning, so she only said a few more words about the case, which was considered an explanation to Yun Wan.

"It's really strange, not looking for money, using such a cruel method is really like seeking revenge." Yun Wan guessed that the case in Qingzhou was under the banner of the Dark War Clan Alliance.

"Sister Guan is right. I have met Master Liu before. He is upright and honest. Qingzhou is mostly local tyrants and evil gentry. He must have offended someone on a daily basis, otherwise he would not have ended up like this." Shen Yishuo shook his head regretfully. , The scene of Liu Zhifu leaning against the big tree with his head lowered and covered in blood appeared in front of his eyes again. Even if he didn't die from bleeding from the wound, if he was tied to the tree like this and didn't eat or drink, he would starve and freeze to death.

"Brother Shuo, everyone has their own destiny, just live well." Hearing Shen Yishuo's words, Yun Wan comforted Shen Yishuo, knowing that the case was definitely not solved yet.

"Well, what sister Wan said is true. Master Duanmu is upright and upright. He has no enemies but suffered miserably..." Shen Yishuo felt that his words became more and more inappropriate, so he quickly changed the subject, "Sister Wan, don't worry, I will definitely catch the real culprit as soon as possible."

"Brother Xie for thinking about my father, Yun Wan is very grateful." Yun Wan was very pleased to be able to treat Shen Yishuo so frankly, after all, being a prince doesn't need to worry about it.

"Sister, you're welcome." Shen Yishuo helped Yun Wan up. He couldn't stand this bow. She was obviously a weak girl who needed her father's protection, but she lost her support early on. Anyone who saw her would feel sorry for her.

"Third brother~" Dugu Xiaomeng saw Shen Yishuo from a distance, but didn't recognize the two women next to him. When he walked in, he found that it was Yun Wan and her maid, especially when she saw Yun Wan give Shen Yi a hand. After Shuo saluted and was lifted up, Dugu Xiaomeng asked unhappily, "Why are you here?"

"Hello, Fourth Prince." Yun Wan didn't want to pay attention to that sad face, and greeted Shen Yixi directly.

"Third brother, sister Yunwan, what a coincidence." Shen Yichen winked at Shen Yishuo, seeing that they were talking smoothly, suddenly Shen Yishuo stepped forward to help Yun Wan who was bowing, and he didn't understand what happened.

"Fourth brother, Xiaomeng, sister Wan just came to see how my injury is doing?" Shen Yishuo felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward and explained.

"It's obviously the culprit, but I'm so embarrassed to come." Dugu Xiaomeng muttered.

"Xiaomeng, don't be rude." Shen Yishuo was afraid that Yunwan would blame herself.

"Brother Shuo, the fourth prince, my sister has something to do, so I will leave first." Yun Wan pulled Xue Qing to leave without even looking at Dugu Xiaomeng.

"It's already here, what's the rush?" Seeing that Yun Wan was about to leave, Shen Yixi pushed Dugu Xiaomeng, just wanting her to have a good talk with Yun Wan, even if she saw off the guests.

"Why push me? It's obviously a snobbery." Dugu Xiaomeng said angrily when she found out that Yunwan was treating her like air.

"As long as you're not snobbish, that's fine?" Shen Yixi noticed that the third brother had a gloomy expression, so he scolded Dugu Xiaomeng first.

"Ze Fenglin is also injured, why doesn't she go and see?" Dugu Xiao dreamed that Yun Wan was walking away, and said loudly on purpose, she was not the one to take offense.

"Xiaomeng, don't come to see me if you continue like this." Shen Yishuo turned and entered the room. He originally wanted to see Yunwan off, because Dugu Xiaomeng didn't have time to say goodbye to his sister Wan after making such a fuss. But watching Yun Wan walk away without looking back, he felt a little resentful, maybe Yun Wan came to see him just to get a little comfort in his heart.

Picking green apricots at the dawn of spring, it's hard to pretend to be a good dream, all living beings are jealous of it, and the warbler is ashamed with a smile.
