Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 232 Yingge Switches allegiance to Xu Lin
Han Fang shook his head, indicating that he did not know who did it.

Since Han Qiancheng's body was found near the Xu residence, Han Yu glared angrily at the Xu residence.

"Son."

"I believe that Xu Lin is not the mastermind behind this."

Han Fang spoke up upon seeing this.

"Why?"

Han Yu's eyes showed displeasure.

Han Qiancheng's mission was to secretly monitor the Xu residence. Now that he has suddenly died not far from the Xu residence, Xu Lin is obviously the most suspicious!
"Because Lord Qiancheng's fatal wound was not a sword wound."

Han Fang explained.

Then he dismissed those around him and pointed to Han Qiancheng's wound.

Xu Lin is skilled with a sword, as most people know.

"Although Qian Cheng's cultivation is high, he is still much inferior to that scoundrel Xu Lin."

"He may not have used a sword to kill Qiancheng."

Han Yu's face gradually darkened.

He had no children, only his adopted son Qiancheng. Qiancheng's sudden death was a great blow to him.

"What the young master said is absolutely true."

"But if Xu Lin really wanted to kill Lord Qiancheng, why would he wait until now?"

Han Fanggong analyzed.

He wasn't siding with outsiders, but this really didn't seem like something Xu Lin would do!
Upon hearing this, Han Yu rubbed his fingers and fell into deep thought.

Han Fang's words are not without reason.

"Son."

"The sudden murder of Lord Qiancheng near the Xu residence is something I believe someone might be trying to watch from the sidelines."

"Let you fight with that scoundrel Xu Lin so he can reap the benefits."

Han Fang continued.

"It's not impossible."

"You go and investigate this matter yourself!"

Han Yu nodded slightly, then gave the order.

"promise!"

Han Fang immediately accepted the order.

Then he turned and left the Fourth Prince's residence.

……

That night.

Xu Mansion, on the outskirts of Xinzheng City.

After dinner, Xijun did not go back to rest.

Soon, only Xu Lin and Xi Jun remained in the large study.

"Is something wrong?"

Seeing that Xi Jun showed no sign of leaving, Xu Lin asked, puzzled.

"When does the sir intend to punish his subordinate?"

Xi Jun blinked her bright, clear eyes and asked.

She wanted to be punished as soon as possible.

Although she looks very heroic, she is not a person with a good mindset.

"You want to be punished as soon as possible?"

Xu Lin teased.

"Yes."

Xi Jun lowered his head and admitted to the matter.

"it is good."

"It's better to choose a day than to hit it."

"Go and close all the doors and windows."

Xu Lin said loudly.

"promise!"

Xi Jun, dressed in a white silk dress, was taken aback upon hearing this, and then nodded.

Squeak.

The wooden doors and bamboo windows were closed one after another.

Although it's not summer yet, the temperature is already over 20 degrees Celsius.

"Is it hot?"

Seeing that Xi Jun's breathing was getting faster, Xu Lin asked with a smile.

"Fortunately."

Xi Jun shook his head.

Then he kept blinking, which showed that he was very nervous at the moment.

Did you try to stop Honglian from leaving last night?

Xu Lin asked calmly.

"I offered a few words of advice."

Xi Jun told him the truth.

Xu Lin nodded, took out a black eye mask from his storage space, and handed it to Xi Jun.

Xi Jun was puzzled by this, but still accepted the blindfold with both hands.

"Please sit on the soft couch first."

"Then put on the blindfold."

Xu Lindao.

"it is good."

Xi Jun obediently accepted the order.

After speaking, she slowly walked to the soft couch, sat down on it, put her legs together, and slowly put on the blindfold.

After putting on the blindfold, Xijun became even more nervous.

I wonder how Xu Lin intends to punish her.

The long wait caused Xi Junyu's neck and palms to become quite sweaty.

……

After half a cup of tea.

Xu Lin carried the bamboo basket and walked towards Xi Jun.

"Open your mouth."

Xu Lin ordered.

Upon hearing this, the elegant and refined Xi Jun was first taken aback, then startled.

Then, she gently bit her lower lip and slowly opened her thin lips.

Seeing this, Xu Lin looked satisfied and then put the pancake from the bamboo basket into Xi Jun's mouth.

"Guess what this is?"

Xu Lin said. Xi Jun nodded slightly, then began to taste the pancake.

"Pancake?"

After more than ten breaths, Xijun asked in a low voice.

Xu Lin nodded, took two segments of orange from the bamboo basket, and put them into Xi Jun's mouth.

"What is this?"

Xu Lin asked again.

"tangerine?"

Xi Jun asked as she chewed gently.

"Yes."

"You guessed very accurately."

Xu Lin praised.

After saying this, he had Xijun kneel down on the soft couch.

Then, the last item was placed into Xijun's mouth.

Upon entering the mouth, Xi Jun's eyebrows furrowed.

She was about to bite when Xu Lin stopped her.

"This thing should not be bitten."

Xu Lin said seriously.

Xi Jun nodded and began to taste it.

"gentlemen."

"I truly cannot guess."

After a long silence, Xijun gave a vague reply.

As soon as she finished speaking, her cheeks turned flushed red.

Even if she's never eaten pork, she's surely seen a pig run.

So she actually already guessed what it was, but found it difficult to say.

"You really can't guess?"

Xu Lin brushed aside Xi Jun's gray hair and asked.

Xi Jun shook his head, then couldn't help coughing a few times.

……

A quarter of an hour later.

Xi Jun covered her mouth and left the study.

To prevent Xijun from making the same mistake again, Xu Lin was extremely ruthless in the final stages.

After Xi Jun walked away, Xu Lin stretched comfortably and then wrote a letter to Jing Ni.

Based on the timeline, Zi Nu and Madam Hu should be arriving in Xianyang soon.

It's not appropriate for Madam Hu, a widow, to stay at Xin Zilan Pavilion, nor is it quite appropriate for her to stay at his house, so Jingni needs to arrange a place for her to stay.

……

The next day.

The dwelling of the Black Crow.

After lunch, Mo Ya summoned Ying Ge and Bai Feng.

"The Qin army will arrive in Xinzheng soon."

"How have you considered the matter of switching allegations?"

"I ask in a deep voice," Mo Ya asked.

In his view, this matter should be addressed sooner rather than later.

"I don't want to work for anyone anymore."

Bai Feng spoke first.

He wants freedom!
Serving Ji Wuye for so many years has left him feeling very frustrated.

At this moment, all he wants is freedom.

In a world of great strife, how easy is it to achieve freedom?

"It's a deep voice," said Parrot Song.

"So you figured it out?"

Mo Ya looked at Ying Ge.

The parrot nodded.

She has been investigating Xu Lin recently and has been able to confirm that Xu Lin is a wise ruler.

"Although there are restrictions if I switch to Xu Lin, I will also receive his protection."

"..."

The parrot sang a song to persuade Bai Feng.

Bai Feng was still young at the time and couldn't listen to what Ying Ge was saying.

Seeing this, Mo Ya told Ying Ge to stop trying to persuade Bai Feng, because no one can make a choice for anyone else.

As long as Bai Feng doesn't regret it later!

When do you plan to go to the Xu residence?

"Ink Crow asked."

"Tonight."

The parrot answered.

"I'll go, you come with me."

Mo Ya said.

"Need not."

Parrot immediately refused.

Then they left.

……

Two hours later.

The sun was already setting in the west.

Yingge changed into a light blue dress and rode her horse to the Xu residence.

Xu Lin was resting with his head on Yan Lingji's jade legs.

Upon learning that Yingge was requesting an audience, Xu Lin couldn't help but yawn, and then had Xijun take Yingge to the study.

"You should rest first."

Xu Lin suddenly stood up, put down the skirt he had rolled up, and gently patted Yan Lingji's jade legs.

After speaking, he strolled leisurely towards his study.

"gentlemen!"

Upon seeing Xu Lin, Yingge immediately bowed respectfully.

"Figured out?"

Xu Lin asked with a smile.
