The Killer's Cleansing Manual
Chapter 17: Arrested After Just Drinking
He was about to retort, but Qi Yili gave him a sidelong glance, and his courage withered in a second. He sighed and obediently went to get the wine.
Soon, he came back stealthily with a few jugs of wine, as if he was holding stolen gold in his arms.
It’s not that Lin Shanjuan can’t drink, on the contrary, she loves drinking too much. She has always suspected that she is actually the reincarnation of a wine jar.
But I searched around the princess's house for the whole afternoon and still couldn't find it. I didn't expect this little fat boy to be so smart and move in so quickly!
"You can still find this thing? I've been here all afternoon and still can't find it. That's amazing!" She praised sincerely.
Xiaodunzi was the one who couldn't resist praise. He was delighted when he heard this. "Of course, the emperor and I have been here many times."
The two of them each had a pot of wine and drank from it, continuing the topic just now. Xiaodunzi rested his chin on his hand and kept an eye on his surroundings.
But how far could a little fat boy like him see? He didn't notice that the two people in the corridor had been staring at them for a long time.
Yue Liu, who had just returned after a long journey on horseback, took the cloak and slowly put it on Xihe's shoulders.
"Your Highness, do you need me to remind them?"
Xihe was angry, and his forehead was throbbing as he looked at the two people who were drinking and acting like brothers in the corner.
She heard that Lin Shanjuan was wandering around the mansion all afternoon, and thought she was going to do something. She thought she should not alert the enemy first, but observe secretly, and then catch her when she could.
As a result, they didn't find any evidence against Lin Shanjuan, but they did find evidence against Qi Yili!
Who would have thought that she saw with her own eyes the younger brother of the emperor climbing to the other side of the wall and pulling over a small stool.
She guessed that Qi Yili wanted to see what her son-in-law looked like, so she didn't stop him immediately and gave him enough face. She wanted him to take a peek and then leave on his own, without anyone noticing.
But she didn't expect that one was the current emperor and the other was the future prince consort, and their first meeting was an accidental encounter in her backyard.
Thinking of Lin Shanjuan's unruly character, she was also worried that the three of them would make a scene, which would alert the guards and make Qi Yili lose face.
Unexpectedly, the two of them not only get along well with each other, but if she doesn't stop them now, Lin Shanjuan might become Qi Yili's sworn brother before he even becomes her son-in-law.
Seeing that the two of them had already started to raise their hands to swear, regardless of Xiaodunzi's obstruction.
Xihe's face darkened, "Send the emperor back!"
Yue Liu sighed for Qi Yili in his heart, and left in response. Amidst Xiaodunzi's screams, he threw him over the wall. Then he helped Qi Yili up and climbed out.
Qi Yili recognized Yue Liu. Before being carried out, he had already laid down because he was "devastated by being caught by the imperial sister". However, he did not forget to say goodbye to Lin Shanjuan in a drunken state:
"Lin Zhiyin! I'm leaving first! We'll talk some other day! Don't forget to find me in the Imperial Study!"
Lin Shanjuan was not much better. The wine from the princess's mansion was different from the watered-down wine from Xiongfeng Village. It was mellower, stronger, and more intoxicating.
She hadn't drunk in a while, and she was greedy. The topic of conversation was very interesting, so she was about 70% drunk. She replied incoherently, "You go first! I'll rest for a while and then call a taxi back!"
Yue Liu led the two of them over the wall. Xihe had also reached the foot of the wall. He lowered his eyes and saw Lin Shanjuan mumbling and rummaging through his clothes, as if he was looking for something.
She leaned in closer to listen: "Where's my...cell phone?"
Xihe looked at her in confusion - could it be that she was really hungry and wanted to eat chicken right after dinner?
What kind of chicken is hand chicken?
Noticing a person standing in front of him, Lin Shan looked up wearily and squinted his eyes to identify him carefully.
Xihe said nothing, but stood there dignifiedly, bathing in the moonlight, allowing her to look at him as she pleased.
I was busy discussing cooperation during the day, and only now did I have time to take a closer look at Xihe's appearance.
The willow-shaped eyebrows and peach blossom eyes show a face full of affection and tenderness, but those eyes are without any emotion.
It is indeed beautiful, but it is a pity...
When Lin Shanjuan saw her thin shoulders, he couldn't help but sigh for her: It's a pity that she has to bear too much and is born in this era, where her ambitions are difficult to fulfill and she has no freedom.
She leaned back against the porch pillar, looking so nonchalant that she didn't look like a woman at all. No wonder she was not recognized even after disguising herself as a man and going to Xiongfeng Village for a month.
"Don't tell me, I've killed so many people and met so many people, but I've never seen anyone as iconic as you."
Lin Shan smiled tiredly, and began to yawn as he smiled, it seemed that he was sleepy.
Xihe frowned, very concerned about what she said about "killing so many people".
She was clearly an unfavored concubine, so why did she kill so many people?
Now that I think about it, there are indeed many doubts. She is a martial arts expert, bold in her actions, and very sharp in her judgment and decision-making on practical matters. Moreover, she is calm and composed. These are definitely not qualities that a lady who has been unpopular since childhood, bullied and confined to a small courtyard can possess.
All these things really made her concerned.
This person must have a deep secret hidden in him, but he doesn't know whether it is good or bad for him.
I originally wanted to find an ordinary person, but after searching for so long, I ended up finding trouble.
A gust of night wind blew by, and Xihe did not feel cold despite being covered with a shawl. Instead, Lin Shanjuan sneezed subconsciously, but fortunately he knew to avoid the person in front of him.
She is quite well-mannered. Although her demeanor is rough, she still has the proper manners.
Xihe lowered his eyes to look at her, and listened to Lin Shanjuan muttering, "But you are not only good-looking, but also willing to treat me to delicious food. Even if there is someone who looks like you, you are still beautiful!"
Xihe is silent. She has heard all kinds of compliments about her appearance since she was a child.
When she was a child, people said she was smart and lively. When she came of age, people in the capital spread the rumor that she was so beautiful that she could shame the moon and flowers.
But later, wasn't it those people who spread the saying "beautiful women are the root of trouble"?
She turned around, gathered her sleeves and prepared to leave, but felt a slight tug.
In front of a drunk person, Xihe had no patience and no longer had the superficial gentleness she showed during the day.
"Do you still need me to help you?"
Lin Shanjuan didn't say anything, but pulled on Xihe's silk sleeve to help him stand up. Xihe looked back angrily. The man was holding onto the pillar behind him and looked at her helplessly: "Why are you so fierce? Look, I'm standing up now, aren't I?"
It was impossible to reason with a drunk man, so Xihe frowned, tossed his sleeves and walked ahead, "Go back to your room!"
Lin Shanjuan stared at Xihe expressionlessly, and Xihe looked back at her unwillingly. Their eyes met, one casual and vague, the other full of gunpowder.
Suddenly, Lin Shanjuan laughed again, crossed his arms and shook his head: "I really don't know why you insist on marrying me, but don't worry, if I really marry you, I can at least help you share some of the hardship."
Sweet words never have any persuasive power. Xihe looked at her dazed drunken state, sneered and walked away.
Lin Shanjuan caught up with Xihe with soft steps and walked backwards in front of her.
