Chapter 31(2/2)

"No problem, I'm very sensible."

Xin Yi followed Fu Jiuqu's example and poked his forehead with his fingertips. Before he got angry, he pressed his acupuncture points with both hands, pinched, kneaded, pressed, and rubbed, interrupting his anger, and then deliberately

She spoke softly, with the air of a resentful young woman in her boudoir.

"Actually, I am self-aware. With such an ugly face, I have already suffered enough from admiring Saburo in the past. I don't dare to have such wishful thinking in the future."

Xin Yi glanced at him and continued to take him for granted. He suppressed his laughter and sighed quietly.

"Right now, I don't ask for anything. I just want to solve the case quickly, get some money, open a small medical clinic, and live alone with my children..."

Fu Jiuqu closed his eyes and said nothing.

Xin Yi could clearly feel the uneasiness in Prince Guangling's breathing. When he touched his scalp, his fingertips pressed slightly harder.

Immediately afterwards, the topic changed.

"By the way, that day at the Lu family, I heard Lord Jingzhao mention a person named Chen Chusheng. I wonder if the Lord has heard of him?"

Xin Yi was very curious as to why Gao Miao asked Mr. Cui about Chen Chusheng, and wanted to find out more from Fu Jiuqu.

Unexpectedly, Fu Jiuqu told another "ghost story".

"Did you know that there was a fire in Zhangjiacun in the first year of Qingli..."

The first year of Qingli? Ten years ago?

Xin Yi shook his head.

Fu Jiuqu opened his eyes and looked at her: "In the winter of that year, a fire broke out in a medical hut in the north of Zhangjia Village. All eighteen members of the family were not spared, and the medical hut was burned to the ground. The case was extremely bizarre, but in the end there was no

murderer."

After a pause, he said calmly: "The male owner of the family who died was named Chen Chusheng. He was originally a medical officer of the Hanlin Academy. Gao Miao had a dystocia when she was born, and almost killed two people. Fortunately, Chen Chusheng saved her..."

So that’s it?

The extra plot made Xin Yi feel nervous.

"Why did Dr. Chen build a medical hut in Zhangjiacun? Is the fire really a fire? Why was there no murderer?"

"That's another reason." Fu Jiuqu clearly didn't want to say more. He looked up at Xin Yi and gave a meaningful smile.

"It's a good press, let's follow your plan."

Xin Yi was stunned for a moment, countless thoughts flashing through his mind.

"The prince's disease cannot be solved by recurring attacks. Before we can get a cure, we have to find a way to relieve pain..."

"Xin Yi." Fu Jiuqu suddenly said.

Xin Yi didn't expect to be called by his first and last name, so her fingers trembled in fright and her heart almost stopped.

"Prince?"

Fu Jiuqu sneered, "Why, isn't that your name?"

"Yes." Xin Yi was just trying to figure out what he meant when he caught Fu Jiuqu's sudden gaze. It was cold and desolate, as if the continuous rain of autumn had been hidden.

"Why lie?"
