266. Shen Chen Went Back Because of Her
Master Li rolled his eyes and said, "Who said I'm worried about you? Hurry up and sit down, my eyes hurt when I look at you!"
Lin Xi was not polite, "Thank you, Master, for giving me a seat."
She couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "What's going on in Jinling? It's Yi Hong who wants to exterminate the surviving clan of the old Chu. Why did Shen Chen go back?"
Suddenly, Lin Xi had too many questions that she wanted to know.
But after thinking about it, the most important thing at the moment is the situation in Jinling, which is related to Shen Chen's safety!
When Master Chen and Master Li heard this, their eyes changed when they looked at Lin Xi.
Master Chen said: "You already know about the surviving people of the old Chu state in Jinling?"
Lin Xi said: "Shen Chen told me about the identity of the old lady, and I know a little bit about it. To be honest, when I diagnosed and treated the old lady, I found that the old lady was poisoned."
Master Li's expression changed: "Seriously?"
Lin Xi nodded heavily, "I don't dare to deceive you two. My medical skills have been relatively successful, and it is not difficult to diagnose poisoning. After investigation that day, it was found that Huaijin's stepmother Wang was most likely to have poisoned her. However, Shen and I later Even Chen felt something was wrong, but finally found out that it was actually Yi Hong who had poisoned him."
Master Chen's expression also changed at this time, "What then?"
"Then we thought that this should be the intention of the imperial court to clean up the old Chu remnants in the city. We didn't want to get involved, so we hurried back." Lin Xi said truthfully.
Master Chen looked at Master Li, "It seems that the Holy One has really demoted Yi Hong overtly and secretly promoted him, and is determined to solve everything at this time."
"Wait, wait." Lin Xi was a little confused, "I want to ask, what does it mean to be demoted? I heard from Huai Jin that his father Yi Hong came back from leave on the grounds that his mother was seriously ill. Moreover, wasn't he supposed to be in Jiangnan at this time? Right?"
Master Li said: "How does a child like Huai Jin know about the affairs of the court? Yi Hong offended the Holy Spirit by admonishing him in the capital, so the Holy Spirit demoted him to the position of governor. The so-called leave because of his mother is just a good name. That's it. , it can also deceive most people and prevent them from thinking about what Yi Hong really wants to do."
Lin Xi understood: "Yi Hong's fundamental purpose was always in Jinling, not on patrol. So he didn't stay in Jiangyou for too long, and secretly returned to Jinling early to arrange arrangements. It happened that we were about to arrive at the lantern festival in the city, and by then the people in Jinling City When people come and go, you can use the guards to seal off the city, or you can do it cheaply, so that you can catch them all in one go?"
"You're not too stupid." Master Li said solemnly.
Lin Xi thought about all the previous events and suddenly realized.
On the way back, Yi Huaijin was disappointed and could not get along with Yi Hongduo. She thought that Yi Huaijin was referring to the past, but it turned out that he was referring to the present. He pointed out that Yi Hong had returned to Yi Mansion that day!
When leaving, Yi Huaijin hesitated several times. Thinking about it now, it was clear that what Yi Huaijin wanted to say was Yi Hong! But Yi Hong must have told Yi Huaijin not to tell outsiders that he was back.
"Not good!" Lin Xi's face suddenly changed, "Shen Chen and I estimate that nothing will happen to Jinling City for at least half a month, but that is without Yi Hong. Now that Yi Hong is in Jinling, the old lady's poisoning will be very serious. Quickly leak it, I’m afraid something will happen to Jinling right now!”
Master Li and Master Chen suddenly looked ugly.
Master Chen frowned and said to Master Li: "Before you and I question Lin Xi, I have ordered people to inquire about the situation in Jinling. The results will be available as soon as the morning after tomorrow."
Lin Xi said anxiously: "But Shen Chen's life and death are unknown now, what should we do?"
As soon as he said this, Master Li sneered angrily, slapped the table and said, "Even if something happens, he deserves it! Who told that boy to act so arbitrarily that he dared to go back alone! Why did he lie to others and go to Yuezhou County? He already If you want to be a hero and don't let others know about it, then life or death will be up to you!"
Lin Xi was stunned for a moment after hearing this. Just when she was about to defend Shen Chen, she suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but be stunned.
"No, Shen Chen said he was going to Yuezhou County just to lie to me, not to you."
"What did you say?"
Master Chen and Master Li looked at her.
Lin Xi clenched his hands and said, "You two are extraordinary people. Sure enough, you realized something was wrong in such a short period of time. Shen Chen is so smart, couldn't he have thought of this?"
Master Chen didn't understand: "But why does he just want to hide it from you?"
Lin Xi was silent for a moment and said: "Because it was the old lady who reminded me to leave that day, I realized something was wrong with Jinling City." She hesitated for a moment, and did not say anything about her possible connection with the old lady. She only said: "That day Yi Hong Since you are in Yi Mansion, you must know about this matter."
When Master Li heard this, he said: "Is Shen Chen worried that Yi Hong will think that the old lady reminded you because you have a relationship with her, and will regard you as a Chu person and want to kill you? So you can't stay in Jinling. Is it safe to go back to Ruyang?"
Lin Xi's heart skipped a beat. She was surprised that Master Li was so sharp and thought of this level all of a sudden.
However, the next moment I heard Master Li sneer and say: "Shen Chen is so concerned that he is confused and confused! Then the old lady let you go, is it because of you?"
Lin Xi: "No, otherwise, why?"
Master Chen said: "Because of Huai Jin."
Lin Xi: "Ah?"
Master Chen sighed: "You are still young and don't know the past of the Yi family in Jinling. The only direct descendant of the Yi family is Huai Jin. The old lady must have found out that Yi Hong poisoned her, and she was disheartened. I am worried that Yi Hong can even catch up with Huai Jin, so I want you, an outsider, to take Huai Jin away. Let me ask you, did the old lady specifically ask you to take Huai Jin away?"
Lin Xi: "Uh, yes."
Master Chen: "That's it."
Master Li became even more angry, "If it were in the past, how could Shen Chen not see through it? He was born as a refugee and was raised by farmers, how could he be from Chu? How could Shen Chen become so stupid in just a few years! "
Lin Xi shrank his neck, not daring to say this.
But when she thought about it, Lin Xi felt something was wrong.
When Yi Huaijin came to see them that day, Yi Hong should have already returned home. He must have met the old lady and knew that the old lady wanted to remind her to leave. Since he knew that, how could he agree to let Huaijin and her leave smoothly?
Moreover, Shen Chen returned to Jinling alone that night.
Lin Xi intuitively felt that there must be some kind of connection between the two.
Could it be...Yi Hong did it on purpose??
He already knew that the old lady wanted to protect her, and then he deliberately let them leave, and then forced Shen Chen to go back?!
Lin Xi immediately sat upright. He remembered that Shen Chen left alone that night and came back a long time ago, and the clothes on his body were missing. If Shen Chen was not lost at that time, but got into a fight with someone, got injured or something, and his clothes were damaged, Shen Chen wanted to prevent her from letting her go. Did you find it and tear it off on purpose?!
Lin Xi thinks this is very possible!
With Shen Chen's personality, he would not go back to Jinling unless he was sure that he must go back.
So how did he determine that?
There is only one answer - Yi Hong deliberately sent people to hunt them down, making Shen Chen think that Yi Hong already knew her identity, so he had to go back!
