Chapter 48: Let's Go Back Together On the way back, Xiao Zhinian suddenly thought about how Shen Zhejiang addressed Zhao Xiaosi, feeling it was a bit too affectionate. So, he asked, "Why does Teacher care so much for Zhao Xiaosi?" Shen Zhejiang didn't hide anything and said directly, "He once studied under my sect, learning to read and write." Xiao Zhinian's tone was so sour it could make teeth fall out: "With his little brat self, what big words can he know? He's not even as good as me." Shen Zhejiang…-

Chapter 47: But It Wasn't a Good Dream Either Chapter 47 But It Wasn't a Good Dream Either Zhao Jianji, upon hearing that Xiao Zhinian had come to visit and offer condolences, was so moved that tears streamed down his face. He rushed straight from the courtyard and performed a grand salute to Xiao Zhinian. What opportune timing. "..." Xiao Zhinian straightened his face and cleared his throat lightly. "This official is already aware of the matter in your residence." "Your Honor, you must help this…-

Chapter 46: Where the Heart Finds Peace, So It Is Chapter 46: Where the Heart Finds Peace, So It Is The morning light was faint, and there weren't many pedestrians on the road, but Xiao Zhinian, dressed in disheveled clothes, running wildly through the streets, attracted a lot of strange looks, people thinking he was crazy, all keeping their distance. Xiao Zhinian was single-mindedly focused on seeing Shen Zhejiang, and didn't notice any of these people at all. The Zhao family's incident was no…-

Chapter 45: Why is He Foolishly Meddling in the Zhao Residence's Affairs? "Fire! Someone, come quickly! Hurry!!" The fire spread from the Zhao manor like water being splashed, the night wind blowing fiercely, and huge flames devoured every corner of the courtyard. Zhao Jianji, draped in a water-soaked bedding that a servant had given him, ran out of the house, gasping for breath after only a few dozen steps, but fortunately, he had escaped with his life. "Hah—a narrow escape means good fortune ahead,…-

Chapter 44: How Could I Possibly Forgive You So Easily? His whole heart was in his throat. Xiao Zhinian reacted quickly, dodging and leaping onto the roof beam, holding the Silver Frost Dagger in his hand, ready to catch the intruder off guard. The one who pushed the door open was a child, barely taller than the desk, carrying a pillow, swaying with each step, looking somewhat stiff, as if he hadn't fully woken up. Xiao Zhinian took a closer look and realized it was Zhao's kid, what was his name again?…-

Chapter 43: Hmm, a Little Bitter The medicinal soup was quickly finished. Xiao Zhinian took out a clean handkerchief from his sleeve. A corner of the handkerchief was embroidered with a delicate bamboo design. It was Shen Zhejiang's original one. Gently wiping the corner of Shen Zhejiang's mouth that was stained with the remaining medicine, Xiao Zhinian felt a pang in his heart. He said, "The medicine is so bitter, you should have said something, Teacher." "It's nothing, I..." Shen Zhejiang paused,…-

Chapter 42: Is it Possible to Try and Rely on Him? Shen Zhejiang hadn't expected to survive. He dazedly opened his eyes, staring blankly at the snow-blue curtains above for a moment before realizing the place was somewhat familiar. The few sparse decorations, the landscape painting hanging on the wall, and the rows of Phoebe wood bookshelves, all wafting with the scent of paper. It turned out to be his courtyard. How could he be here? He tried to move his body, but a sharp pain shot through every…-

"Stop!" Xiao Zhinian's skills were obviously superior to the assassin's, and he soon caught up, flying up and kicking the man squarely in the back, sending him crashing from the roof to the street. The assassin rolled a couple of times, raising a cloud of dust. He was about to get up and flee when he realized he was trapped in a narrow alley, with a high wall behind him, leaving him nowhere to escape. Xiao Zhinian landed on the ground, casually picked up a discarded bamboo pole, and leisurely looked at…-

Chapter 40: Sir, You Must Hold on Tight Chapter 40 Sir, You Must Hold on Tight The next morning. "It was him! He poisoned them all to death! I didn't expect him to be this kind of person!" Inside the posthouse, Xiao Zhinian was awakened by the noisy clamor outside the door. He rubbed his forehead, only to find that the arm Shen Zhejiang was using as a pillow was a little numb from being in the same position. That's right, last night they were in the room discussing the matter of the post horses dying…-

Chapter 4: This Prince will have him beaten to death with clubs! Chapter 4: This Prince will have him beaten to death with clubs! Shen Zhejiang indeed stopped. He felt his sleeve. His clothes had been changed, and even the letter was gone. He didn't know if it was lost in the water or taken by Xiao Zhinian. Xiao Zhinian shouldn't know about what happened back then. If he saw the letter, how would he view him? "Liu Bao, bring him in." Not giving Shen Zhejiang a chance to refuse, Xiao Zhinian gave an…-
