The short-lived ghost of the Xie family has lived a long life

Chapter 783
"She asked me to pay more attention to my opponents in the court."

Zhao Yishi turned around, looked at Shen Chong, lowered his eyes and smiled, "I only have one opponent in the court."

Shen Chong didn't know what to say for a moment and could only remain silent.

"But that guy doesn't."

Zhao Yishi said slowly: "This world is his, this country is his country, he will not use such an important thing to embarrass me."

Only then did Shen Chong dare to look up at him: "Your Highness, could it be the remnants of the Han King's Party?"

Zhao Yishi thought it was so, but thinking about it, it wasn't necessarily true.

"Tall trees are prone to wind hazards. I am afraid that many people will be concerned about my position as the crown prince."

He took a deep breath and whispered: "Even they have distanced themselves a lot from me."

The second half of this sentence made Shen Chong feel stunned.

Usually, the third master and the little master Pei are on the left and right, hugging His Highness affectionately, but today it is...

"His Royal Highness's identity is different from that of the past. Today, Miss Yan and the others are here. Naturally, the Third Master and Little Master Pei will not behave like usual..."

"Shen Chong."

Zhao Yishi interrupted: "They are the only two people in the world who can call me Huairen."

Shen Chong: "..."

"Go."

Zhao Yishi suddenly felt indescribably tired, "Xiang Yanrui and his wife keep an eye on them. If something happens, you are the only one I want to ask."

"Yes!"

Shen Chong did not leave, but instead took a step forward and whispered: "Miss Yan, Third Master and Little Master Pei, would you like to..."

"No, they will be worried."

"Yes!"

……

On the way to Duanmu Palace, there was silence;
Returning to the other courtyard, there was also silence all the way.

Everyone was tired and felt like their hearts were heavy, as if they had been stuffed with a lot of things, and they urgently needed a good night's sleep to relax.

Pei Xiao couldn't sleep and ran to Xie Zhifei's bed.

"When Yan Sanhe said he didn't want Huairen to protect him, why didn't you say a word? Huairen has many experts around him, so we can investigate the case if we free up manpower, right?"

Xie Zhifei can't always say that Yan Sanhe is guarding Zhao Huairen.

He covered his eyes with his hands, "She has Da Xia, I have Ding Yi, and you have Huang Qi, so there is no need for him to send more people."

"But wouldn't it be better to send more people to protect us?"

"It's okay, it's just in the way."

Xie Zhifei said in an impatient tone: "Didn't you see that the hero didn't even enter the study door today? You still like her, have you ever thought about it for her sake?"

"I……"

"sleep."

Xie Zhifei was like swatting away flies.

"I have to go see the bodies of the two watchmen tomorrow morning. It's almost the fourth watch and I won't be able to sleep for a few hours."

Pei Xiao returned to his couch with his head drooped.

My body is very sleepy and I can't open my eyes, but my mind is still awake. I always feel that everyone is a little abnormal recently.

Yan Sanhe, a man who always only cares about women's life and not men's, actually blames himself for Chen Pi and two watchmen?
unusual!
Xie Shifu was most worried about Yan Sanhe's safety. He sent Ding Yi to follow him when nothing happened. Such a big thing would happen and he wouldn't let Huairen protect him?
unusual!
Mr. Li is a person who will listen even if he doesn't understand. Today he is only waiting in the yard?
unusual!
The most abnormal thing is myself. Even though I haven't done anything yet, I always feel guilty when I see Zhao Huairen.

I didn't rob or steal, and I didn't hide anything from him. What should I feel guilty for?
Pei Xiao bit her lower lip unconsciously, or should I confess to Huairen that I like Li Buyan?

But what's the use of confessing?

If people look down on him, what's the point of saying so?
In the darkness, Pei Xiao sighed quietly, thinking to himself, this man, don't be emotional about anything, so that you can have no worries and sleep until dawn.

It's not like him now, turning over and over like spreading pancakes. …

It's like spreading pancakes, and Mr. Pei is not the only one.

Yan Sanhe also had difficulty falling asleep.

An enemy appears behind Hengkong, disrupting all her plans. So what's the next step?
There seemed to be no way to go, there was a dead end in front of her, she could neither look back nor pass through the wall, she could only stop where she was.

Is there any breakthrough?
Yan Sanhe turned over gently, and when he saw Li Buyan sleeping soundly with his arms wrapped around the quilt, he couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

This girl likes her when she says she likes her, and puts her down when she says she likes her. She only embarrasses others, not herself. What a good temperament.

Yan Sanhe closed his eyes gently, and after a long time, his consciousness gradually blurred.

I don’t know how long I slept for, but suddenly Li Buyan’s scream sounded in my ears——

"Yan Sanhe, come and take a look, the incense has lost a little ash."

fragrant?
Incense ash?

Yan Sanhe woke up with a start. He didn't even have time to put on his shoes and rushed to the incense burner.

I saw a little incense ashes in the clean incense burner.

"I-I saw it fall with my own eyes."

Li Buyan's expression was indescribably horrifying: "It, it's really counting down."

Yan Sanhe looked very calm, which she had expected.

At this time, Xie Zhifei and Pei Xiao rushed in one after another. One had not put on his shoes and the other had not buttoned up his clothes.

Li Buyan quickly greeted: "Third Master, Little Master Pei, come and see."

When Xie Zhifei and Pei Xiao looked down, their expressions suddenly changed.

Yan Sanhe is right. No matter how slowly you burn, there will always be a time when the incense is burned out and the length of the incense is reduced by a little.

If it were yesterday morning, their faces wouldn't be so frighteningly white. Now...

Behind them, there is a pair of eyes staring at them. They investigate one and kill the other;
In front of me, the incense is burning continuously, and the countdown time is shortening little by little;
There is a wolf in front and a tiger behind. They are caught in the middle and cannot move.

What's even more dangerous is, what exactly is this incense counting down to?

Will the national fortunes change and the country change hands as Yan Sanhe expected, or will someone be unlucky?
If anyone is unlucky, who is it?
Are they several of them?

Pei Xiao looked up at Yan Sanhe and asked fearfully:

"Yan Sanhe, is there a possibility that after this incense burning is over, if the Zheng family's case is not solved, all of us will die."

"Have!"

His uncle's!

Pei Xiao slapped his forehead, "I'm going to go to the temple to offer some incense for us and light some peace lamps."

Xie Zhifei turned around and walked out, "I will go to Dongcheng immediately to take a look at the two corpses of the watchmen."

Li Buyan said: "I'm going to write a will right now, just in case."

In an instant, only Yan Sanhe was left in the room.

She sat down on the bamboo couch and looked at the incense head intently.

This inner demon has shown its weirdness and danger from the very beginning.

The Zheng family’s courtyard wall collapsed;

She sensed that there was an inner demon in the Zheng family mansion;
The horses of the three battalions all fell down;

The incense burned on its own for no apparent reason;
Whose inner demon is it?

Okay, regardless of whose inner demon it is, burning the incense means that the inner demon has begun to be solved, and she is the one who truly solves the inner demon.

Is there another possibility that this fragrance is counting down to her.

Will she die if she doesn't solve it within the stipulated time?
