In the evening, under the leadership of Shen Zitian, Chu Qingyan dressed up and went to see Shen Zitian himself.

Chu Qingyan followed a maid carrying a lantern, but she felt unconfidant. That day, Shen Zitian never came to find him after Shen Muchen cleared his grievances for Li Wanxue. In the past, Shen Zitian would not give up as long as it was related to him.

But later Shen Zitian never looked for him again. Afterwards, Chu Qingyan ordered people to find A Yue's relatives and gave them a sum of money to send them outside the pass. Later, A Yue's death sank into the bottom of the valley like a rock sinking into the sea and disappeared into everyone's memory.

Things were going smoothly until a day ago, Bai Lian whispered to himself that the people they sent were waiting at the original location for a long time but did not wait for A Yue's family. He secretly sent someone to find the house and there was no sign of anyone having any activity.

I asked the residents of the next house and they unanimously said that A Yue's family had moved out a few days ago and had never come back.

Chu Qingyan was worried that Shen Muchen's people had done something in the middle, so he did everything for Li Wanxu. But then Chu Qingyan found Shen Muchen and planned to test his words. As a result, he happened to be in charge of affairs in the Office of Internal Affairs that night, and the guards around him also had their own duties, not them.

Except for Shen Muchen, the only one who has the ability to make a few people disappear in the Yucheng is Shen Zitian.

Bypassing the winding corridor, a moving red lantern was reflected in the dark pond. Chu Qingyan wiped his sweat from time to time, and even his heart was beating and unable to calm down. "Have your Majesty ever said what he summoned me?"

The palace maid who led the way did not turn back, "The county lord understood when he saw His Majesty. I was only responsible for leading the way."

He took a deep breath and kept himself calm like before.

Soon she found a self-comfortable statement: her subordinates were very clean and would not leave any obvious traces found by Shen Zitian. Besides, Shen Zitian could not be so concerned about the death of a maid.

That's right, that's it. Thinking of this, Chu Qingyan's mood has been much more relaxed. She must remain calm and cannot let her see any clues, otherwise not only will she die without a burial place, but also will implicate the entire Chu family.

In the blink of an eye, the palace maid had already brought Chu Qingyan to the destination. Chu Qingyan came back to her senses and saw that this was not Zichen Palace.

Called the departing palace maid, "Hey, wait, this is not Zichen Palace."

They are now in Shuiyang Garden in the middle of the lake, which is a mini palace built in the center of the water, with only one room.

"Your Majesty is waiting for the county lord in Shuiyangyuan~" After saying that, he lowered his eyes, bowed slightly, and quickly left with a red lantern.

"Is this here..." Chu Qingyan murmured to herself at the thin hollowed-closed door of Shuiyangyuan in front of her.

"Crimp" pushed open the door and saw Shen Zitian. He took off his gorgeous clothes and changed into a clean and plain gray shirt. He did not tie his head or take the lead.

The walls of Shuiyangyuan are hollowed out on both sides. When the breeze blows through one side of Shuiyangyuan and passes through the other side, you can feel a hint of coldness in the house, and a few black lines are slightly brought.

"Close the door and come in." Shen Zitian did not turn around but poured another tea cup on the table.

The smile on Chu Qingyan's face suddenly stiffened, but she still listened to Shen Zitian's words and turned around and closed the door.

"The weather is so cold, and Your Majesty has such leisure to come to Shuiyangyuan for tea. In my opinion, this Shuiyangyuan does not cover up the cold winter and does not prevent mosquitoes in summer, which is really not a place to soothe your mind."

After hearing Chu Qingyan's words, Shen Zitian tilted his head and smiled. He said three words to Qingyan's point of view, "Zi Feiyu", and then turned to face Chu Qingyan who was still standing there, patted the empty mat beside him, "Qingyan, come and sit."

Shen Zitian was the same as usual. Chu Qingyan walked forward with a grin and sat next to Shen Zitian as before. "Your Majesty looks very happy today?" Yes, he looked very happy. When Qingyan thought about it, he relaxed a lot.

He lowered his head and pushed the teacup towards Chu Qingyan, answering "Yes."

"Your Majesty wants to tell Qingyan what is so happy about His Majesty?"

Seeing that Shen Zitian's teacup was empty, Chu Qingyan put down the teacup and stood up, reached out to pick up the handle of the pot to pour tea into the cup.

"I haven't killed anyone for a long time. I've killed you today. What do Qingyan thinks?"

When Chu Qingyan heard this, her heart trembled, and her hand raised in the air could no longer be moved.

He smiled dryly and took back the teapot. "What did Your Majesty say? Qingyan doesn't understand." He was already filled with a heart.

"A few days ago, I almost killed an innocent person, so I was concerned about the murder case. At that time, everyone's words were the same. They said that they saw Li Wanli killing people on the edge of the bridge. But when I asked in detail, how many people's certificates would not be effective. Do you know why?" Shen Zitian asked.

Chu Qingyan's face was a little pale and she quickly shook her head.

Shen Zitian continued, "Because there were three people, one of them was picking up clothes at the washing machine, and two were picking up things in the rest of the department, but they all said that they saw Li Wanli killing people on the bridge."

He walked around Chu Qingyan, "It was you who died in Zhu Xinggong, so I have never doubted you, but then I have to doubt whether you asked them to say such testimony from now on."

At first, Shen Zitian had no reason to suspect Chu Qingyan, but as the investigation deepened, all the fingers were raised to one person.

Chu Qingyan.

"In the end, your Majesty doubts me? Your Majesty once said that he would never doubt me again in this life!"

Chu Qingyan knew that the paper could not contain the fire, so she could only grab the last straw at this moment.

Shen Zitian once swears to her that it is in this Shuiyang Garden. He said, "No matter what I have, Shen Zitian will not doubt Chu Qingyan. I will protect Chu Qingyan for the rest of my life and will not let her suffer any grievances..."

Nineteen years have passed, and he has always remembered such a promise in his heart. When did it change?

Shen Zitian could no longer remember when he was disappointed with her for the first time.

Shen Zitian's voice sounded at Shuiyangyuan, "I have sent someone to destroy Ayue's family. There will be no more people or things related to Ayue in the world. I know that you have been worried for a long time and didn't plan to tell you about this, but..."

"Your Majesty, but why..."

Shen Zitian, who was standing in front of the door, turned around and smiled, "Because, my promise to you..."

Chu Qingyan stood there in a daze, watching him leave Shuiyangyuan. He was less than thirty years old, but his face had already been covered with the vicissitudes of time.
