Chapter 457: 457 The Meeting of Father and Son

457 The Meeting of Father and Son-in-law (3)

He had been feeling uneasy all day. Before he finished dealing with the matters there, he returned alone. Halfway through, he met Mo Yuan and found out that Shen Yijia had been taken to court.

Thinking of the corpse that suddenly appeared in Cangtong Town, he almost immediately concluded that someone had deliberately released this bait to lure him out of the capital to deal with Shen Yijia.

“No.” Shen Yijia grinned and shook her head in his arms. “I knew you would come back.”

For some reason, she was confident in Song Jingchen. It was precisely because of this that she didn’t attack anyone in court.

Otherwise, when Song Jingchen returned, he would have to clean up another mess.

Song Jingchen felt his heart ache.

Xuanyuan Ce waited for a while, but no one came in. When he came out, he saw the two of them hugging in broad daylight. His face instantly darkened.

Song Jingchen let go of Shen Yijia. Thinking of what he had heard on the way, he guessed Xuanyuan Ce’s identity. He cupped his hands and said, “Thank you, Lord Jing’an, for testifying for my wife.”

After interacting with Lord Cai a few times, he naturally knew who he was. It was obvious from Lord Cai’s attitude towards Deputy Minister Luo and him.

Lord Cai was just a despicable person who curried favor with the powerful.

Fortunately, Xuanyuan Ce’s status was high enough. Otherwise, if someone else had testified, this would not have happened.

“Is there a need for you to thank me?” he thought.

Xuanyuan Ce was depressed. When he met Shen Yijia’s resentful gaze, his face darkened.

Song Jingchen didn’t seem to notice anything wrong with Xuanyuan Ce. Besides, this person had just helped Shen Yijia.

He said politely, “Your Highness, come in and sit down.”

Xuanyuan Ce didn’t say anything and sized Song Jingchen up.

The more he looked at him, the more he disliked him. Why didn’t he notice this kid when he first saw him? His face was handsome enough to deceive any girl.

His face was filled with disdain. Even Shen Yijia, who was slow to react, noticed it.

She puffed up her cheeks. “Don’t think that you can embarrass my beautiful husband just because you saved me once!” she thought.

She went forward and held Song Jingchen’s arm. “His Highness has been sitting there for a long time. He’s very busy. Let’s not waste his time.”

Xuanyuan Ce was speechless.

He was about to say that he wasn’t busy when Song Jingchen spoke first. “Then I’ll send His Highness off.”

Xuanyuan Ce was speechless.

Standing in front of the Song residence, Xuanyuan Ce had the illusion that he had been chased out.

Was it an illusion?

Shen Yijia ran to the carriage and personally lifted the curtain. “Your Highness, quickly get in the carriage. It’s so hot outside.”

Xuanyuan Ce was speechless.

When he got into the carriage, a small hand lifted the curtain at the side. When he met Shen Yijia’s smiling eyes, Xuanyuan Ce felt better.

In the next moment, Shen Yijia said, “Thank you for your help today, Your Highness, but I don’t like to owe people favors. This is for you. We’ll split it equally.”

With that, she stuffed a stack of banknotes in. Before Xuanyuan Ce could refuse, the little head disappeared.

Xuanyuan Ce was speechless once again.

What had he done? Why did she have to draw a line with him? He clearly didn’t say that he wanted her to split the money with him.

Xuanyuan Ce counted the banknotes in a daze. There were a total of twelve banknotes.

It was missing 50 taels!

Shen Yijia did not know what he was thinking. Otherwise, she would definitely say righteously that she had asked for the extra 100 taels with her own ability.

Xuanyuan Ce did not know whether to laugh or cry as he put away the banknotes. He rubbed his eyebrows and said, “Chu Feng, look for that little beggar later and investigate the Shen family.”

At this point, he paused. “I’m mainly investigating Madam Wang and this girl in the Shen family.”

There were many similar people in the world. It wasn’t that he hadn’t seen people who looked like Ji Luo all these years, but no one gave him such a feeling.

Moreover, the speed at which Shen Yijia attacked that day was not something ordinary people could have.

It was a coincidence that they looked alike, but what if their skills were the same?

The carriage drove out of Liu’er Street and a person walked out of the alley.

Looking at the carriage that was getting further and further away, Mo Yuan’s eyes were filled with killing intent.

On the other hand, Shen Yijia counted the remaining banknotes in her hand several times. Her heart ached so much that she wanted to cry.

“How did you shrink in such a short time?” she thought.

Song Jingchen found it funny and rubbed Shen Yijia’s head. “You can’t bear to give it to him?”

He did not expect Shen Yijia to get so much money from a single trip to the court. It was an eye-opener.

Shen Yijia cried, “If I don’t give it to him, I’ll feel like I owe him. If he treats you like that again, I’ll be too embarrassed to attack.”

She could only blame herself for being too principled!

She recalled the banknotes and noticed the fatigue on Song Jingchen’s face. Her heart ached as she asked, “Is the case very difficult?”

Song Jingchen was still touched by her words. When he heard this, his eyes darkened. “The corpse was thrown in a river. It took all night to salvage it.”

Although he had yet to investigate, he had a vague guess.

Shen Yijia’s eyes widened. “So many people died and no one noticed?”
