Chapter 792 You Are the Important One
Xiao Tingshan has been feeling uneasy ever since he returned to the Sixth Prince's Mansion.
As daybreak approached, he sat at the table. As he said, there was indeed a pot of good wine prepared, and not only that, there were also many delicacies.
He and Wenren Zong knew each other when they were humble, and it was actually Wenren Zong who approached him first.
Oddly enough, he had been planted with a kind of poison since he was young, which was closely related to his life.
When he was injured, Wenren Zong also felt it.
However, he has been in good health since childhood, so my illness is nothing to him.
But even so, he and his life are tied together.
He had searched widely for a sorcerer who was proficient in the art of poisoning insects, and some people had tried several times. Although the bond between him and the Wenren Sect was weakened a lot, there was one thing that could not be changed.
If he dies one day, Wenren Zong will definitely protect him and die.
So all these years, he has always been by his side, risking his life to protect him time and time again.
Also because of the existence of the poisonous insect, and the relationship of more than ten years, he trusts Wenren Sect much more than others.
In other words, this is the only person in the world he can truly trust.
But now...
When Xiao Tingshan thought of the group of people who were like ghosts and whose whereabouts were unknown today, he felt a lump in his heart.
In addition, there is a fear that he is unwilling to admit.
Yes, fear.
He couldn't explain the reason, but he just felt that the man in the lead was full of gloomy and cruel aura, like the Yama King who was taking lives, or like an evil ghost from hell.
He is different from those who have lived in the capital for a long time and play power games in the court.
The man looked young, but he had a cold and solemn air, as if he had walked through a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
But he sent people to investigate Xie Jingchi. When did such a person appear around Xie Jingchi?
If he could ask these people to take action, then how could he be in such a miserable state when Xiao Heyu chased him several times?
Thinking of this, Xiao Tingshan couldn't help but recall that after Xie Jingchi fell off the cliff at the hunting ground, Chai Bin, Lu Qian, Suo Rong and others all disappeared for no reason.
Yes, just disappear.
It was as if those people had never existed, and all traces of them had been wiped out.
If it was just a simple massacre, how could it leave no trace?
Who is behind Xie Jingchi?
Or, who is protecting him?
Suddenly, Xiao Tingshan felt his heart tighten and an indescribable pain spread. At that moment, even breathing became difficult, as if someone was holding his throat tightly.
But it was only for a moment, and soon he returned to normal.
A trace of confusion flashed across Xiao Tingshan's eyes. He couldn't explain the feeling at that moment, but he just felt that some bond seemed to be broken.
That feeling made him more and more irritated. He couldn't help but quickly turn the Buddhist beads in his hand, but his heart couldn't calm down.
He no longer wanted to think about today's loss. After all, as long as the mountains are green, there will be no shortage of firewood.
As long as Wenren Zong can come back safely, that will be enough.
Not long after, Songbai came in hurriedly holding a box: "Your Highness, someone sent you a gift and asked you to open it yourself."
Xiao Tingshan stood up and looked at the box in Songbai's hand, and had a bad feeling.
Songbai put the box on the table and Xiao Tingshan slowly opened it.
What came into view was Wenren Zong's head placed there. There was still a bit of evil on his face, and his eyes were wide open. It was obvious that he died very quickly.
Xiao Tingshan's eyes turned red, he swallowed his saliva, his fingers fell on the hair of the head, and tears flowed from his eyes...
"A Zong."
You said you wanted me to wait for you to come back for a drink.
How can you break your promise!
Xiao Tingshan staggered, crying and laughing at the same time.
Songbai didn't know what to say. He thought his master was the descendant of the current emperor, the true son of the emperor. He thought that life would get better and better, but he didn't expect...
I didn’t expect that the Wenren guard who had been with His Highness for many years would die like this.
Xiao Tingshan couldn't help shaking, and asked tremblingly, "Did the other party leave any message?"
Songbai came back to his senses and nodded, "The other party said that this is a reward for your actions yesterday."
“Haha, hahahaha! Xie Jingchi, what a great Xie Jingchi!”
Xiao Tingshan picked up the wine glass, drank it all, then threw the jade cup heavily to the ground, his eyes filled with deep hatred.
Just then, the maid beside Lou Yulan came hurriedly to report.
"Your Highness, Aunt Lou is about to give birth!"
Xiao Tingshan was in a daze for a moment, but he couldn't be happy at all because of Wen Renzong's death.
After a long while, he said, "I know. I'll be there in a minute."

On the other side, Shen Shuyi slept until noon and felt tired and exhausted.
She had been able to sleep since she was reborn, but after tossing and turning for a long time last night, she felt weak all over and couldn't exert any strength at all.
She opened her eyes and stared at the bed curtain, knowing that Xie Jingchi was no longer by her side.
This man was indeed as cruel and ruthless as he looked. Although she didn't read the book that her second aunt gave her that day, she made good use of it by giving it to him.
Thinking of the beauty of last night, Shen Shuyi couldn't help but blush.
Even when she got up and washed, she still felt like she was walking on cotton and her whole body ached.
After washing up, Shen Shuyi walked out of the room and saw Xie Jingchi reading a book there.
Shen Shuyi was annoyed whenever she saw him. She didn't know how many times she had given in last night before he finally gave in.
I don’t know how a civil official like him could have such a good physique.
Thinking of this, Shen Shuyi thought of Xiao Tingshan, who was breathing heavily with every step.
Well, it turns out that you shouldn't marry a sick person. Even if Xiao Tingshan is good at martial arts, he is still that kind of person...
"Serve the meal." Xie Jingchi put down the book in his hand and looked up at Shen Shuyi.
Shen Shuyi avoided his gaze, but her ears were burning uncontrollably.
Xie Jingchi walked up to her side and said in a gentle voice, "Lou Yulan gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, tonight. The Sixth Prince's Mansion has sent an invitation to hold a third-day bathing ceremony in three days."
Shen Shuyi raised his eyebrows. Giving birth?
It is about the same time as in her previous life. After all, when she married Xiao Tingshan in her previous life, the pair of children already existed.
In this life, let those two good children fend for themselves.
Thinking of this, Shen Shuyi raised her hand and gently covered her belly. Will she have a child of her own in this life?
Thinking of Xie Jingchi's Meng Lang last night, Shen Shuyi felt that this might not be difficult.
"There's no rush to deal with offspring. Let's wait until the situation stabilizes." Xie Jingchi saw through her thoughts.
Shen Shuyi raised his eyes and looked at him: "You don't want it?"
Xie Jingchi gently held her hand and said, "Mr. Liancheng said that you are in poor health. You have only been recovering for a short time. You should take care of yourself for a while longer."
"Besides, after attending the baptism ceremony of the Sixth Prince's Mansion, I will go to Qiongzhou. I will be worried about leaving you alone in the capital."
His words were straightforward and his eyes were open and sincere, which made Shen Shuyi evoke many feelings that he had never experienced before.
"Eat, offspring are not important, you are important." Xie Jingchi said in a deep voice.
