Chapter 127: CH 127

Ji Ling Xue asked: "Who is outside?"

Xiao Yi Chen should be at the authority solving the mystery of today's case, then who could be outside?

Ji Ling Xue clutched the white bottle in her hand, she planned to sell this bottle of poison on the black market in a few days time but it might actually be handy now.

A timid voice came from outside, it sounded a bit far, like it was a courtyard away, "Miss Mo Xiang, are you there?"

Ji Ling Xue's forehead was filled with black lines, they broke her window to find Mo Xiang? She turned to look at Mo Xiang who was holding a needle with her ears perked up listening carefully, "Mo Xiang, you're in a relationship?"

Mo Xiang looked shocked, recently princess loved to tease her, she only had princess in her eyes, when does she have the time to look at other men.

Mo Xiang fell silent for a moment: "It sounds like the guard who watches the rear door, I wonder why he came to find me, I'll go take a look first." Mo Xiang said, putting down the needle and lifting up her skirt to jog outside.

Ji Ling Xue looked at the back of Mo Xiang with a smile: "Was she really not in a relationship?"

It wasn't long after Mo Xiang left when she came running back, anxiously saying: "Princess, bad news?"

Ji Ling Xue lost her grip on the teacup and it fell on the floor, splashing water over her skirt, Ji Ling Xue had no time to mind it, pulling on Mo Xiang's hand she asked: "What happened?"

Mo Xiang said: "Just now it was Xiao Si who threw the pebble at the window having bribed the guard at the rear door, he said a group of ruffians came to the restaurant tonight with metal rods, the customers were chased away, and they broke the tables and chairs in the restaurant, they got into the kitchen and took the recipe book, the waiters and chef fought with the ruffians over that recipe book, in the end the recipe book was stolen and people were hurt, princess, this servant will find a doctor to go over there."

Ji Ling Xue held onto Mo Xiang's arm: "I'll go with you."

Mo Xiang was rather hesitant, "Princess, you are of a honourable status, it's not been safe in the capital recently, it's better if you didn't show your face."

You came across a faceless female corpse this morning and the killer had yet to be caught, if prince found out, the servants would be blamed.

Ji Ling Xue smiled, "That killer committed a crime today, they won't reappear."

Recently the martial law at night had been stricter, the killer wouldn't stupidly come running out to be arrested, besides she's always had good luck, she won't come across the killer just by stepping out of the city gate.

"But..." Mo Xiang thought for a while but couldn't think of any other reason to stop Ji Ling Xue from coming along, who told the prince to be so good to princess, giving her such an impressive bodyguard.

Ji Ling Xue threw on a cloak, pushing Mo Xiang out of the door, "It's fine, don't think about it, let's leave quickly, we don't know the state of the restaurant or how seriously hurt they are."

Ji Ling Xue's mention of this also made Mo Xiang's thoughts run wild, no longer thinking about if Ji Ling Xue would come across danger, the two of them left via the rear door of the prince's residence, together with Xiao Si they sat in the carriage heading to the outskirt of the west city gate.

As soon as Ji Ling Xue left, Ji Yu Qing heard about it.

Ji Yu Qing looked at the masked man in black in front of her, this black clothing wasn't normal night clothes, rather the special outfit of the secret guards in the residence.

Ji Yu Qing nodded: "Fine, I understand." The man in black's eyes shifted until he disappeared, Ji Ling Xue looked at the unconscious Zi Ye on the floor, turning around she returned to her room. 

She sat in front of the dressing table, picking up her makeup tools, after a quarter of an hour, Ji Ling Xue's face appeared in the copper mirror.

Ji Yu Qing touched her face in satisfaction, a strange smile rose on her lips, she took out three slips of paper hidden in her chest, putting it into an envelope, she left.

Xiao Yi Chen's study was tightly closed, but Ji Yu Qing knew there were a lot of secret guards hiding everywhere, she pushed open the study door with little steps, it was as she thought, Xiao Yi Chen's study was only open to Ji Ling Xue.

Last time she wanted to deliver refreshments to Xiao Yi Chen in the study but was heartlessly stopped at the door by the guards, it was clear there were movements outside, but Xiao Yi Chen in the study didn't come out.

A bitter smile appeared on Ji Yu Qing's face, she lit the oil lamp in the study standing in front of the bookcase she found a book and looked at it under the light.

An hour later, Xiao Yi Chen returned to the residence looking tired out, a secret guard appeared to greet him: "Prince, princess is in the study waiting for you."

Xiao Yi Chen nodded, the secret guard disappeared into the darkness. Xiao Yi Chen smiled.

It was rare for Ji Ling Xue to wait for him in the study, thinking about it he hurried up, pushing open the door, Xiao Yi Chen saw Ji Ling Xue seriously thumbing through a book under the light, he entered, pulling Ji Ling Xue into his arms, "Xue Er, why are you not asleep already?"

Ji Ling Xue looked up smiling, hugging Xiao Yi Chen's waist: "Prince you hadn't come back so I couldn't sleep."

Xiao Yi Chen's blood was sent racing by Ji Ling Xue's passion, he held her waist kissing her forehead, "How come you're so obedient tonight, maybe the princess was looking forward to what they didn't finish earlier?"

Ji Ling Xue's cheeks turned red, bashfulness filled her eyes, tempting Xiao Yi Chen, stooping over he picked Ji Ling Xue up, he sat on the chair, placing Ji Ling Xue onto his lap.

Ji Ling Xue blinked, patting Xiao Yi Chen's chest, "Prince, you're so bad..."

Xiao Yi Chen stared at Ji Ling Xue for a long time, he felt there was something off with Ji Ling Xue tonight, but women's thoughts were always hard to read.

Xiao Yi Chen said: "Do you want to know what this prince found out tonight?"

Ji Ling Xue: "..."

Xiao Yi Chen continued to say: "This prince and Chi Feng wanted to go to the authority to see the autopsy report to see if there were any clues to the killer, unexpectedly half way there a scream was heard..."

Ji Ling Xue paled, her lips twitched asking: "There was another faceless female corpse?"

She had heard a lot about this faceless corpse from Zi Ye, the funniest thing was, Ji Ling Xue was actually the person who found the corpse, Ji Ling Xue was very lucky, she could even come across such an unfortunate situation.

Xiao Yi Chen nodded, vividly describing everything that happened tonight, especially describing the appearance of the corpse, scaring the Ji Ling Xue in his arms so much she trembled.

Xiao Yi Chen hugged Ji Ling Xue with a great sense of accomplishment, very pleased with her present scared position, how can a woman not be scared.

Ji Ling Xue trembled asking: "That...that killer...prince has caught them?"

Xiao Yi Chen nodded, "This prince immediately suspected there was a problem with the night watchman, apart from the night watchman's footprint there wasn't anything else, so the prince threw the night watchman in prison to properly question, maybe the night watchman had a conscience, or maybe being detained in a prison he got scared and  immediately knelt down in confession..."

"The deceased turned out to be his wife younger by four years, a month ago his wife had an affair, after warning her several times to no end, finally when he was sounding the night watches on his way home, he came across his gorgeously dressed wife preparing to meet her lover, seeing this blood rushed to his head, he picked up a hammer and beat his wife to death, at that time he was very afraid, he didn't know what to do, he wanted to turn himself in but then he heard about the faceless corpse, he was struck with an inspiration to imitate the faceless corpse and cut off his wife's face, then moved the body to the snow..."

Ji Ling Xue's body was covered with goose bumps, she didn't feel well imagining that scene.

Xiao Yi Chen continued to say, "Xue Er, guess where that night watchman hid his wife's face?"

Ji Ling Xue looked straight into Xiao Yi Chen's eyes, instantly feeling the atmosphere turn sinister, she covered her ears and shook her head.

Xiao Yi Chen chuckled: "Xue Er, you weren't scared when you saw the corpse today, why are you so scared like this tonight when you heard be describe the woman's corpse?"

Ji Ling Xue eyes moved about, finally saying: "Because...because there are no ghosts during the day!"

Xiao Yi Chen raised his head laughing heartily, this was the funniest thing he heard.

Qingfengyashe, the floor was covered with china shards, only a few remaining tables were intact, several waiters sat on the tables cursing as they helped each other treat the wounds on their bodies.

A carriage came from a distance, Ji Ling Xue and Mo Xiang jumped down from the carriage, seeing this the people inside immediately stood up, "Miss..."

Ji Ling Xue nodded, glancing over everyone, her eyes falling on the heavily bandaged right hand of the chef, there was still blood on her face, the bandage around her hand was already soaked red with blood, maybe because it was too painful, her face had already lost colour and she seemed to be in a daze.

Xiao Si said: "Chef's hand was hurt during the struggle over the recipe book..."

Ji Ling Xue crouched down, wanting to undo the bandage, the chef suddenly started crying, "Miss I'm sorry, I'm useless, I didn't guard the recipe book well...wuwu, what will happen now..."

Ji Ling Xue patted the other person's shoulder: "Don't be upset, so what the recipe book was stolen, it's not much of a loss for us, on the contrary your hand..."

A doctor rushed over with a medicine box, standing next to Ji Ling Xue, soon after he opened the box taking out a pair of scissors cutting off the layers of bandages around the chef's hand, looking at the deep cut on her palm, he sighed, "That cut is very deep, it's cut a nerve...even after it's healed the sensitivity won't be the same as before..."

The chef's eyes darkened hearing this, saying sorrowfully: "I...I won't be able to use a ladle to cook in the future? What can be done, I'll be a useless person from now on...I wanted to enter the cooking competition at the beginning of next year..."

The people fell silent hearing her desperate words.

Ji Ling Xue patted the chef's hand in consolation: "First don't think so far ahead, heal your hand then we'll think about it again."

The chef pursed her lips looking down, forcing herself to nod, she lost the recipe book carefully compiled by the miss, miss didn't tell her off but instead comforted her, miss really was generous.

Ji Ling Xue stood up looking at the six waiters next to her, they were fortunate only having sustained light injuries.

Ji Ling Xue turned to look around at the mess: "I'm sorry, because of my oversight you were hurt, we'll shut the restaurant for now, everyone properly recuperate."

Xiao Si asked: "Miss, will you still run your restaurant?" If miss didn't want them, they would have to return to begging, will their carefree days end?
