Chapter 593

Yu Shu told Xue Rui in detail that the father and son of the Xin family had asked her to predict Yun Hua's death.

Rather than saying that Xue Rui's reaction was surprise, it would be better to say that he was bewildered. "So he's still alive?"

"It can't be wrong. I used Jing Chen's horoscope three times, and the result was the same. Princess Royal Luyue passed away twenty years ago. If Yun Hua is also dead, then the six lines will not be a hexagram at all."

After Yu Shu finished speaking, she did not hear Xue Rui's reply for a long time. Looking at his erratic eyes, she raised her hand and waved in front of his eyes.

"Big brother? What are you thinking about? "

Xue Rui put away his thoughts of running away and said to her, "I have some suspicions, but I can't confirm it yet. I won't tell you for the time being."

Yu Shu nodded indifferently and continued her words. She said happily, "This is good news for us.

"This is good news for us. Yun Hua is my Eldest Senior Brother. Back then, his purpose of entering the capital city was the same as mine, which was to destroy the Book of Mystic Fairy's Six Rens. However, I don't know where he is hiding now. Otherwise, we can find him and ask him clearly."

Xue Rui looked at her and asked, "Are you going to tell Jing Chen about this?"

Yu Shu had never thought about this before. After thinking for a while, she nodded gently. "I asked him to come to Wangji Tower tonight. I will tell him then."

Xue Rui said slowly, "Jing Chen will be surprised when he hears this news."

Yu Shu said, "I didn't tell him because I wanted to give him a surprise. I just think of it as repaying him for not hiding the matter of the Life Breaker from me. Moreover, Yun Hua is Jing Chen's biological father and his closest relative. He has a reason to know that his father is still alive. As an insider, what right do I have to hide it from him? "

Xue Rui's eyes darkened a little and he said to himself, "Does he have a reason to know …"

"Why, do you think it's inappropriate?"

Xue Rui shook his head. "It's good to tell him. Let him know that the 'death' of Yun Hua Yi Zi was strange. He will not blindly listen to the arrangements of that side. The more suspicious he is, the better. "

Yu Shu suddenly thought of yesterday morning at Kunling Bureau. Jing Chen's promise to her hesitated and did not mention it in front of Xue Rui.

It had nothing to do with whether she believed Jing Chen's words or not. She just felt that it was stupid to gossip about her ex-boyfriend in front of her current lover.

After she shared this shocking discovery with Xue Rui, Yu Shu also calmed down from the panic she felt when she found out that Yun Hua was still alive.

"Big brother heard about my bravery at the Aquatic Conference."

Xue Rui smiled. "You're referring to the fact that you took advantage of His Majesty. Did you fool a bunch of people? "

"… What. I'm really talented, "Yu Shu muttered. But she did not have much confidence. Xue Rui knew her the best. It would be strange if he believed that she could really summon the wind and rain.

"You're really bold," Xue Rui said worriedly, "You even lied to the emperor. Aren't you afraid that it will be difficult for you to back down in the future? If there is a drought. The emperor sent you to the place to make rain. What are you going to do? "

Yu Shu became proud again. "I thought about it, so I told them that day. If I use this ability, I will die. I can't guarantee that I can return to Turin."

Xue Rui was relieved. He raised his hand and flicked her forehead. He chuckled and said, "You're cunning … In the evening, Jing Chen came.

Yu Shu heard from the waiter that Xin Lishan was still sleeping soundly in the house. To prevent him from waking up and bumping into Jing Chen, she sent Gui Ba to guard outside Xin Lishan's mountain gate.

Little Qing took Jing Chen to the slightly deserted third floor. Yu Shu and Xue Rui were waiting in the tea room.

There were two long blue and white lamps on both sides of the tea room, illuminating the room.

Jing Chen saw Xue Rui, who was wearing a bamboo gown and sitting leisurely. He stopped in front of the door and looked at Yu Shu with a tired expression.

Xue Rui closed the lid of the tea, stood up, and said, "Brother Jing, please come in. I want to see you today. I have something to discuss with you."

Jing Chen looked at Yu Shu's indifferent face under the lamp. The light in his eyes dimmed, and he stepped in. The maid closed the door behind him.

The three of them were in the same room. There was a strange silence in the air. The first to break the silence was Jing Chen, "Did you tell him everything about me and you?"

Of course, this question was asked to Yu Shu. He didn't mean to blame her, but he looked at her without moving his eyes.

Yu Shu was silent for a moment. When she was about to answer, she heard a voice beside her, "If you are talking about the Great Trouble and the Life Breaker, I know everything."

Jing Chen then turned his eyes to Xue Rui. Looking at the man who always appeared beside Yu Shu, there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.

He knew this feeling. It was because of many things that he should have done — accompany her, protect her, and not let her be bullied. He couldn't do it, but the person in front of him did it.

Xue Rui frankly met Jing Chen's gaze. Not so long ago, he had envied this person. Perhaps Jing Chen's background was slightly more unfortunate than his own, but he was fortunate enough to meet a person who was worth sacrificing for. Unfortunately, he was unable to cherish her and missed out on her.

"What do you want to say to me today?"

"With all due respect," Xue Rui stopped being polite, and his voice became cold.

"Brother Jing is righteous. You can set an example for the Great Peace Country. I admire you. Brother Jing is kind. In order to repay the kindness of the sect, you endured humiliation. I understand. But dare I ask Brother Jing, what did my sworn sister do to you? Why did you disregard her life and involve her in a dangerous situation? "

He had long wanted to question Jing Chen face to face. Why could he cut off all ties with him when he wanted to? He wanted to get back together, so he thought that Yu Shu should obediently give in.

Even if his reason was dignified, it couldn't hide the essence of using her.

Men always had such a self-righteous drawback. They thought that they could decide everything. A selfish man was more arbitrary than a selfish woman.

Seeing Jing Chen, it reminded him of himself three years ago. He wholeheartedly wanted to marry the Tenth Princess, but he didn't consider whether she was willing or not. In the end, he ended up in an irreversible situation.

As a man, Xue Rui didn't think that he had the right to blame Jing Chen. But as Yu Shu's man, he couldn't tolerate Jing Chen's covetous heart.

"Or is Brother Jing really naive to think that as long as Shu agrees to marry and have children with you, you will live in peace?"

Although Jing Chen was used to Yu Shu's cold words, he still felt that Xue Rui's bluntness was a little harsh. The things that he had always wanted to deceive himself and others became clearer.

That day at the bottom of the Imperial Tombs, he had his doubts, but he still chose to believe Da Dian's words. Da Dian had told him who the person who broke his life was. Apart from kindness and righteousness, in his heart, the person he liked was Xiaoyu.

He was happy to have such a chance to be with her again.

"She doesn't owe me anything. I'm the one who let her down."

"You didn't let me down. I've said that we're even." Yu Shu's voice was flat. She had long passed the stage of anger and unwillingness. Now, Jing Chen was no longer a friend or an enemy to her.

Hearing this, Jing Chen just turned his head to look at her. His handsome face did not show much emotion.

Seeing this, Xue Rui stopped and did not continue to be aggressive. Instead, he changed the topic and brought it to the murder case in Taishi Shuyuan.

"The murderer who killed Zhan Xueyuan has not been identified. It is obvious that those people's goal is to target you, the scourge of Daan. That's why the woman close to you was implicated. I'm afraid that their next target is Shu. For her safety, I want to trouble Brother Jing with something."

"What is it? Go ahead."

"Recently, His Majesty may send more people to protect Shu. If they mention it in front of you, I hope that you can refuse on behalf of Shu. As for the excuse, I've already thought of it for you. Just say that Shu knows the Death Severing Technique and is not in danger of losing her life. You will also protect her from the side. There is no need to do anything unnecessary. "

Originally, this was not what Xue Rui wanted to ask Jing Chen to cooperate with — with Zhan Xueyuan's death, he was afraid that the Emperor would disregard Yu Shu's life and arrange the marriage between Jing Chen and her ahead of time, using her to lose her life first.

That was why he had originally wanted to remind Jing Chen not to agree to their marriage and delay it.

But now, the situation had taken a turn. Yu Shu's performance at the Aquatic Conference had caused Emperor Zhao Qing to reevaluate her weight. A title bestowed by the Emperor was enough to explain the problem.

They would not be in a hurry to send Yu Shu to her death. On the contrary, they would send more people to protect her safety.

"I don't understand." Jing Chen frowned. "Why did you refuse?"

Yu Shu also did not understand why Xue Rui was doing this. Wasn't it a good thing to have more people to protect her life?

But she did not raise her doubts. She believed that Xue Rui must have his reasons for making such a request.

Xue Rui quickly gave this reason —

"Historically, the Emperor of Da An Kingdom has a group of secret personal guards that follow and protect the Emperor. They are not dispatched by the Ministry of Military Affairs, and there are only a few dozen of them. But in terms of martial arts, there is no lack of people who can compete with Brother Jing. They are also very good at hiding and are loyal. So, since the founding of Da An Kingdom, although there have been many assassinations, there has never been a precedent of one successful assassination. "

"If my guess is correct, the Emperor will send more people to protect Shu in secret this time. He will definitely choose people from these personal guards," Xue Rui said and glanced at Yu Shu, saying,

"If you do not want to have people watching you when you eat, sleep, or go to the toilet, and report your every move to the Emperor, it is best to refuse."

Yu Shu had too many secrets. If any one of them was leaked, it would be enough for her to lose her head.

These personal guards were not protective talismans for her, but talismans that would lead to her death.

Yu Shu's expression changed. She unconsciously changed her posture and looked at Jing Chen. Her expression clearly showed resistance.

Jing Chen lowered his head and thought for a moment. He said, "Okay, I will pay attention. Regardless of whether the Emperor and the Great Advisor mention it to me, once I find that there are masters around her monitoring, I will come out to stop them."

"It better be so."

Xue Rui said this and turned to Yu Shu, saying, "Don't you have something to tell Brother Jing?"

Yu Shu did not expect that it would be her turn so soon. She took a deep breath and looked at Jing Chen who had been deceived for more than a decade. She could not help but feel pity in her heart. She unconsciously lowered her voice,
