Chapter 168: Like a Dead Man

After not seeing the bustling streets and lanes of the Imperial Capital for a long time, Murong Jingyu missed the exquisite buildings and jade buildings in the Imperial Capital. This was a city filled with vitality everywhere. If it weren't for taking care of the injured Shen Yihuan, he would have set out long ago to return home.

.

Murong Jingyu looked at the cheering crowd and wondered why everyone living in Huanxi City was in such good spirits. It seemed that he was the only one who could be frowning, depressed, confused and helpless. He kept running around but

I don't understand more and more why I have to work so hard.

"Guan'er~ Guan'er~" From childhood to adulthood, no matter how time changed Yun Wan's appearance, Murong Jingyu would never mistake her figure. He could recognize her slender figure among the crowd at just one glance.

"Brother Jing, why are you back?" Yun Wan was extremely surprised. She personally asked Shen Yihan two days ago when Murong Jingyu would be back. Who knew why this man suddenly appeared on the street? Could it be him?

Did he return to the imperial capital without telling Shen Yihan?

"What's wrong with Guan'er? Am I so scary?" Murong Jingyu found that Yun Wan's eyes were full of fear, as if he had seen a ghost. He was just a little tired but his appearance had not changed.

"It's not that my brother is scary, it's just that when I asked the eldest princess before, she said I had no news about you and I don't know when you will come back. I was really shocked when I saw you all of a sudden." Yun Wan explained, fearing that Murong Jingyu was overly concerned about why she came.

Here, it seems like I just did something shameful

"Sister, are you really looking forward to my coming back?" Murong Jingyu was overjoyed by Yun Wan's kind attitude. He thought Yun Wan wanted him to come back early.

"It's not that I'm looking forward to it, it's just that I have something small and I want to ask my brother for help. I just want to ask."

Yun Wan was polite, fearing that she would be so alienated from Murong Jingyu again and would not be able to face the eldest princess after returning home, especially since she and Yuchen were still living in Murong's mansion and had been taken care of by Shen Yihan, which made Yun Wan grateful.

, even for Shen Yihan's sake, she had to be friendly to Murong Jingyu.

"Guan'er, what's the matter? You might as well tell me now." It was rare for Murong Jingyu to hear what Yun Guan wanted to ask him to do. As long as it was for her, he would be willing to do anything for her.

After all, it was Murong Jingyu who failed Yun Wan first. If he could really help her, it would be able to make up for some of the regrets in his heart.

"Sister Han will naturally talk to brother when we return to the house." Yun Wan couldn't directly mention Yuchen's sensitive period. There are differences between men and women. This is the most basic etiquette. She just wanted Murong Jingyu to test Yuchen.

There is no need for a formal request.

"Well, since my sister wants to whet my appetite, I can't help it, haha~" Murong Jingyu smiled helplessly. He felt that Yun Wan was closer to Shen Yihan than he was. If it weren't for the fact that he was Yuchen's cousin,

Brother, Yun Wan may not have any contact with him.

"Brother Jing, please hurry back to the mansion. Don't let Sister Han wait in a hurry." Yun Wan urged. She didn't know when Murong Jingyu returned to the imperial capital or whether he sent someone to deliver a message to the eldest princess.

"Yes, why did my sister appear here?" Murong Jingyu was happy to see Yun Wan patronizing her, and then he remembered to ask Yun Wan why he was here.

"I was just wandering around, and I happened to end up here." Yun Wan did not want to have too much contact with Murong Jingyu, lest rumors spread and cause trouble for herself. Even for Shen Yihan, she should keep a distance from him.

"Is there anything else wrong with Guan'er? Shall we go back home together?" Murong Jingyu wanted to chat with Yun Guan more so that he could ask what happened in the imperial capital recently. He was too busy to write a letter to Shen Yihan to report that he was safe.

.

"No, brother, please go back home quickly. I have to go to the school to pick up Youchen later." Yun Wan declined because she didn't want to go with Murong Jingyu.

"I'll accompany you. It's rare that I have free time today. I'm such an incompetent brother. My sister has been coming to the Imperial Capital for several months, and I haven't even accompanied you to visit the Imperial Capital."

Murong Jingyu only went to Longyuan Hall to see Yuchen off, but did not go to the school with Yun Wan. He did not want to miss this rare opportunity, especially since Shen Yihan was not around, and Yun Wan still smiled at him.

"I'm almost familiar with the terrain of the imperial capital. Didn't Brother Jing ask General Lin to take us siblings around before? Then I followed Brother Shuo out twice. I won't get lost now."

Ever since Shen Yishuo took Yun Wan to see the night view of the Imperial City on the top of the mountain, she had a very good understanding of the location and distribution of the city. Except for the detailed alleys, Yun Wan had already visited most of the Imperial City. In order to choose

She even came out of the mansion twice by herself.

"Guan'er really won't get lost? Then do you know where this is?" Murong Jingyu asked, pointing to the tall mansion on the left.

"Prince Huanyi's Mansion, brother Jing, don't you remember? I've been here before." The mansion that Yun Wan saw just now is directly behind Prince Huanyi's Mansion. Except that the courtyard in the mansion is too large, she didn't like it.

The one thing that dissatisfied her was that it was too close to Prince Huanyi's Mansion, which made people know that they should suspect her of having intentions.

"Sister, your memory is indeed very good. I just sent Prince Huanyi back to his palace to rest. He had the hardest time during the long journey." Murong Jingyu saw Yun Wan in the crowd as soon as he came out of Prince Huanyi's palace.

"Is King Huanyi okay? I heard from Sister Han that he was seriously ill, otherwise you would have returned to the imperial capital long ago." Yun Wan asked with concern.

"He managed to save his life. After a month of recovery, he is still not doing well. The silver needle that was inserted into his body has not come out yet, so he can only take good care of himself."

Murong Jingyu was worried about Shen Yihuan. If any silver needle penetrated into the internal organs or went to the head, King Huanyi would have to lie down in bed even if he survived.

Afraid of ending up completely awake and enduring pain and torture.

"Brother Jing, I've always wanted to ask you, are those bandits related to the Hidden Shang Alliance?" Yun Wan's biggest concern is the Hidden Shang Alliance. Only by solving similar cases can she find out the real culprit who killed her father.

Who is it?

"Maybe, I have been tracking them for a month, and their whereabouts are mysterious. If they are camped bandits, it is better to say that they are well-trained soldiers, disguised as bandits, just to deceive others and do evil things." Murong

Jingyu responded with gnashed teeth, he had never shown such a strong side in front of his Guan'er.

"Brother, why are you so sure?" Yun Wan asked coldly.

When hatred fills the sea of ​​​​the heart, even if the warm sun shines, it cannot dispel the haze. Yun Wan really wants to see with her own eyes why those so-called dead soldiers are so evil? Are they the real culprits who killed her father?

Dare I ask if the mountain bandits are fierce and difficult to catch alive, they will die as if they are looking forward to returning home, full of hatred.
