Chapter 376 Absolute Trust
Seeing that he coaxed Xiaocui back, Shen Zhiyue ran back to the kitchen, took out a jar of wine, and held it up with both hands.

"I bought it as I passed by, and I don't know if it's good to drink. Today is full of people, so if you don't get drunk, you won't go home."

Yu Qing took over the wine jar and began to pour wine for everyone. When it was Bai Mingyu's turn, Shen Zhiyue covered his bowl with his hand.

"Do you still have the awareness to be a personal bodyguard? Your master suffered internal injuries. I'm afraid he will live too long?"

Yu Qing immediately turned to fill the bowl in front of her, and then sat back in her seat.

Shen Zhiyue stood up and raised her glass: "It's been so long since the collapse, let's relax today, come on, cheers."

Bai Mingyu raised an empty bowl and touched her lightly, and then everyone reacted and clinked glasses one after another.

The spicy taste poured into the throat, Yu Cong and Yu Qing wiped the corners of their mouths comfortably, and sat down comfortably, feeling that they were back in the military camp tonight. After the victory in the war, they would drink and eat meat around the campfire, so happy.

They shouldn't have returned to the capital this time. It would be nice to be stationed at the border forever. Although the conditions are difficult, it is better than losing their lives.

At night, everyone gradually became drunk, she fell into his arms and breathed out alcohol: "Bai Mingyu, there is something I want to tell you."

Shen Zhiyue was thinking about getting drunk and uttering the truth, so that she didn't have to worry about what he thought, and she would face the storm tomorrow.

Bai Mingyu hugged her and went back to the room, avoiding the group of drunks, finally being able to spend a while alone with her.

He hugged her on his lap, and his gentle and hoarse voice rang in her ears.

"Yue'er, what do you want to tell me?"

Shen Zhiyue stared at him, her eyes became darker and darker, she didn't know why she was so hungry and thirsty since the day in the Ji Mansion, it might be because of her beauty.

She stretched out her hand to touch his Adam's apple, and could feel it sliding up and down, Bai Mingyu's breathing was slightly heavy.

"Yue'er just wants to tell me this?"

"Hmm~"

Bai Mingyu turned over and pressed her on the bed, leaned over to look at her: "Yue'er."

His deep voice filled her eardrums, her whole body was limp, and she couldn't tell the difference between east, west, and north.

Shen Zhiyue took the initiative to hug his neck: "Bai Mingyu, you suffered internal injuries and cannot exercise vigorously."

"Whether you can exercise vigorously or not, this king has the final say."

"You, um..."

When she woke up the next day, Shen Zhiyue stared at the roof with dull eyes. She seemed to have said something, but she didn't seem to say anything. She moved her body, and the pain instantly swept through her whole body.

Who made the first move last night? !
Bai Mingyu walked in with a washbasin filled with hot water as if he had timed it well, "Yue'er, wake up."

Shen Zhiyue just put on her clothes, and looked at him full of resentment: "Don't you know how to restrain yourself? Are your injuries okay?"

"Yue'er will help the king to see if there is anything wrong."

Bai Mingyu sat on the edge of the bed and ripped off the clothes on his chest to show her. She really leaned over to look, but think about it, isn't he suffering from internal injuries, which can be seen with the naked eye?
She was about to sit down when she saw bruises on his chest and scratches on his neck out of the corner of her eye. Is this her hand? ?
Bai Mingyu looked at her with ambiguous eyes, she was very wild last night, not bad.

Shen Zhiyue met his fiery eyes, and immediately dispelled her doubts. This is what she did, she scratched the majestic prince.

"I, I'm drunk, I'm unconscious, I didn't mean to."

Bai Mingyu approached her and lightly pecked her lips: "I don't blame you."

Shen Zhiyue saw that there was no abnormal expression on his face. Did she really talk about her father last night? She probably didn't.

"I actually wanted to tell you last night, me and you."

At this time, Yu Cong's anxious voice sounded at the door: "My lord, my lady, it's not good, Ji Tianbao died in another courtyard."

She and he looked at each other, how could it be possible, she hurriedly put on her shoes and went out.

"When I left, he was obviously fine, why did he die?"

"People from Ji's family have already carried the body back to Ji's mansion, and now the funeral will begin."

Shen Zhiyue asked anxiously: "How did he die?"

The members of Ji's family were very protective of the corpse, and he had no chance to get close to it. He only found out this morning after listening to other people's discussions on the street, so Yu Cong shook his head.

Immediately afterwards, Yanzheng ran out of Xiaocui's room in a panic, bumped into them, and stopped in embarrassment.

Bai Mingyu frowned, the matter had already turned into a tricky direction, Ji Tianbao's death was equivalent to a reshuffle of the entire Ji Mansion, as for who had the power, it depended on the means.

Shen Zhiyue knew that Ji Tianbao's death might disrupt his plan, so she walked up to Yan Zheng and said very seriously.

"Did you return after you left yesterday?"

Yanzheng heard her doubts, yes, both he and Xiaocui want Ji Tianbao to die, but he is not the one to avenge his kindness, if he said to save Ji Tianbao's life, he would do what he said.

"We left from the other courtyard, stayed by the river, came back after a while, and never went back."

As long as Shen Zhiyue knew that Ji Tianbao's death had nothing to do with her own people, she turned and looked at him: "Then what should we do now?"

"Yu Cong, is there any news from the emperor?"

"There is no news yet." Yu Cong said respectfully: "If the subordinates hadn't believed in the wrong person, the identity of the prince would not have been exposed in advance, and the prince had suffered such a serious injury."

Bai Mingyu said: "This matter has nothing to do with you, go to the housekeeper to find out how Ji Tianbao died."

The Feng family took Zhai Jun's move, eating at both ends, and easily deceived them.

They came to the housekeeper's residence, and Yanzheng stayed here to guard Xiaocui, not to let Xiaocui cause trouble.

The housekeeper's door was open, as if waiting for them to come early in the morning. Shen Zhiyue walked in and saw the housekeeper sitting on a chair.

"We didn't kill Ji Tianbao. Someone killed Ji Tianbao and wanted to blame us."

The housekeeper couldn't help but sighed, those who were supposed to come ran away anyway, now that the Ji family is dead, what face does he have to meet the head of the family with his old bones.

Bai Mingyu walked in: "Housekeeper, we need to enter Ji's mansion to confirm how Ji Tianbao died."

Hearing the voice, the butler raised his head and looked at him. He didn't change his face. He looked majestic and imposing, and he looked like an extraordinary person.

He knelt on the ground and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Ji Mansion has guarded the Jiangnan industry for more than [-] years. You have ignored it all these years, and you have absolutely trusted the Ji Mansion. The Ji Mansion is ashamed of its trust in you."

The master made Ji's mansion into a mess, and the business went from bad to worse. It's Ji's mansion who can't stand Nanwang.

Bai Mingyu held his arm and forced him to stand up: "I don't blame Jifu."

If you want to blame it, blame the Feng Clan for seeing every stitch in every possible way and using everything to the extreme.

The housekeeper trembled and stood up: "It's not that I don't want to bring you into the Ji's mansion. After the master's accident, the servants of the Ji's mansion changed a lot, and I couldn't get in either."

The Feng Clan moved so fast this time, Bai Mingyu fell silent, Feng Zhu must have known enough about Ji Mansion's assets to kill Ji Tianbao, otherwise they would end up in vain.

There is only one possibility that Zhai Jun can't reach the property. There is already an internal response in Ji's mansion. This internal response usually does not show up, and only investigates the Ji family's property behind the scenes.
