I'm a detective for Dongchang

Chapter 116 You Say I'm a Eunuch?

More than half a month has passed since the night of "watching the moon" on the roof.

Recalling that day before parting:

Yuan Yanxi was going to Jingzhou on the second day. He said that he would be back in half a month at the latest, and let her stay there, obediently waiting for him to officially come to propose marriage. Lu Xizhi was so scared that he fell to the ground:
"Propose marriage??"

Yuan Yanxi frowned: "Why are you so surprised, don't you want to?"

It has nothing to do with whether she wants it or not. She was confused just now and was bewitched by beauty. How could she marry a eunuch? !Ten thousand steps back, even if he wasn't a eunuch, he didn't get married just because of a kiss!This is also too fast.

Try to say tactfully: "This... no, it's not that I don't want to, Director Yuan... we, are we too fast...."

"Hurry up?" But he changed his mind and smiled slightly, thinking that she was shy, "What? I just realized how shy I am now, Lu Xizhi, isn't it too late?"

Lu Xizhi gritted his teeth, avoiding his sight, suddenly knelt on the ground, and boldly said: "Daughter of the people, you... you... your identity, cherish it..."

Yuan Yanxi thought it was because of her disparity in status, so she rejected him, supported her shoulders with both hands, lifted her up, and easily embraced her, stroking her hair, "You think I'm that stubborn Stone? No one dares to stop who the governor wants to marry. Just wait."

Knowing that he misunderstood her meaning, Lu Xizhi hurriedly pushed him away and jumped a meter away: "My lord...is... an eunuch! How can, how can..."

Yuan Yanxi hung her hands in the air, looking at her dully, seeing that her expression did not seem to be fake, thinking about the word she heard just now, and thinking of her slightly hesitant and regretful eyes in the past...

So... For so long, this girl thought he was a eunuch? ?Eunuch? ?

The factory superintendent, who has always been calm, self-retaining, lonely and handsome, was flushed with anger at this moment. He took a step forward angrily, grabbed the woman who was trying to escape, and pressed her against his body, gritting his teeth. Ask her: "You said I was a eunuch? Say it again?"

Lu Xizhi was caught off guard, and then suddenly...she let out a cry of surprise, and suddenly covered her mouth.

ah! ! !No way.

"Let go of me, let me go..." Lu Xizhi was frightened and growled anxiously.

Breaking free from his embrace, Lu Xizhi stared at him in disbelief for a while, and then heard a subdued smile, and suddenly realized that this was inappropriate, and turned away with a blushing face.

After an oolong, Lu Xizhi wished he could find a hole in the ground and squat on the ground covering his face, pretending to be an ostrich and refusing to get up.

Until there was a sigh behind him, and a voice above his head: "Xizhi, wait for me to come back."

Thinking of this, Lu Xizhi felt hot all over again, his face was so red that he was about to bleed.

There is nothing to do in the first half of the month. Lu Xizhi just goes to the East Factory every day to meet up, eat a sumptuous lunch in the cafeteria, and then go home. Darkness followed her inseparably.

Lu Xizhi felt very uncomfortable, as if she was being watched every day. She asked Bei Xue why, but Bei Xue only said that it was Yuan Yanxi's arrangement, so that she should not be burdened.

After being idle for a long time, even Lu Zhonglian began to talk about her, why did she go home so early, and said that the twelve-month silver she received every month was easier than him.

"Father, there is no case recently. It is peaceful. Factory Supervisor Yuan said that I have just recovered and asked me to rest more."

A few days ago, Beixue received a letter from Fei Ge, saying that the factory supervisor would be back today. It was a coincidence that she had just received a poisoning case yesterday, so she hadn't gone home yet.

She didn't want to admit that she was waiting for him...even if she missed him a little bit.

At that time, Lu Xizhi was still sleepless in the archives of the East Factory. This poisoning case was really tricky. Apart from vomiting and diarrhea, the victim had no poisoning reaction.

"Lu Xizhi, you are disobedient."

The dusty air rushed towards her face, and she didn't even notice that someone came in.

Yuan Yanxi was dressed in a red dress and a black cloak, just like this, she came into view, her handsome face, healthy wheat-colored skin, sharp edges and corners like a knife cut, which made people's heart beat; the long eyelashes formed a thick layer under the eyes A pair of dazzling black eyes that seem to be able to see through all the secrets of the past and present life, awe-inspiring like cold stars, straight nose bridge and lips that are bright red.

There was surprise in Lu Xizhi's eyes, she couldn't help but stood up, walked out from behind the table to meet him, but stopped two steps away, because she saw someone else was there.

"Miraculous Doctor Miao?"

"Little girl, are you cured?" Miao Wanhuo's voice was as loud as ever.

"Quick, quick, I'm starving to death, hurry up and ask someone to go to the kitchen to get something to eat."

Lu Xizhi said, "You haven't eaten yet?"

"Every time I am forced to run all the way, if I know it, I call me a doctor, but if I don't know, I think I am a postman!" Miao Wanhuo sat down and said angrily: "Nuo Nuo Nuo, look at the city gate!" That boy, you still ask me today, yo, you have been sending messages again? Which family died this time?" Pooh!
Seeing that Miao Wanhuo was very angry, Lu Xizhi burst out laughing.

Yuan Yanxi ignored him, just stared at Lu Xizhi, his eyes lingering on her: "Why haven't you gone back yet?"

Lu Xizhi briefly explained the poisoning case.

After Yuan Yanxi listened quietly, she pondered for a while, "There seems to be a case two years ago. The victim died suddenly after suffering from inexplicable abdominal pain and vomiting. His family members thought that someone had poisoned them, so they reported to the police. However, the family members of the deceased seemed to insist on their own opinion, and they went to the yamen again and again to beat drums and call for grievances, asking Zhao Xuanwu to reopen the case. After the autopsy, they seemed to have a specific suspect, but in the end they didn't find any trace of homicide."

After cleaning his hands, he went on to say: "I didn't handle this case at the time, but I just heard about it a little bit. Because the family members made trouble in the yamen, I remembered it. You might as well ask Zhao Xuanwu."

Lu Xizhi was overjoyed at the moment, the case had progressed, how could he sit still, jumped up immediately, and wanted to go to the Yamen.

"Sit down!" Yuan Yanxi sat at the table, looking at Lu Xizhi helplessly, "Have you had dinner yet?"

Lu Xizhi stuck out his tongue and smiled, without saying a word, he went straight to Yuan Yanxi and handed him a glass of water, "This subordinate really hasn't eaten yet."

"Eat first, let the case go, and go tomorrow."

Lu Xizhi nodded, and asked Miao Wanhuo casually, "It's been a long time since Dr. Miao, did you meet him on the road?"

Yuan Yanxi looked up at her, not intending to hide it: "Prince Jing was assassinated, this time I went to Jingzhou to investigate this matter, and Miao Wanhuo went with me."

"Someone dares to assassinate the prince?" What's more, isn't that Prince Jing not long since he became king?

"Hmph, of course I dare." Yuan Yanxi said with a gloomy face and disdain.
