  Chapter 49 Even an iron kidney can’t take it.

  After looking into the eyes of Han Fei and the others for a while, Xiao Feng couldn't help feeling disappointed when he saw that none of the new projection tasks had been triggered.

However, Xiao Feng was still very polite. He smiled and nodded at the two of them, then got into the carriage.

"Da da da…"

Looking at the back of the luxurious carriage slowly leaving, Han Fei couldn't help but asked curiously: "Brother Wei Zhuang, what do you think of this person?"

"Anyone who dares to belittle Ji Wuye in public is either a fool or a powerful madman." Wei Zhuang said indifferently.

"oh?"

Han Fei looked amused. "Then do you think he is the former or the latter?"

"the latter."

Wei Zhuang's sword eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

The moment he made eye contact with Xiao Feng, Wei Zhuang felt as if he was being stared at by some ferocious beast.

As a swordsman, Wei Zhuang is very confident in his intuition. This person is definitely not as simple as he seems.

Han Fei heard this and said with some gloating: "In this case, Ji Wuye is going to be in trouble."

The enemy of my enemy is my friend!

As long as Xiao Feng is against Ji Wuye, Han Fei naturally hopes that he will become as strong as possible.

On the other side, after Xiao Feng returned to the Xiao Mansion in a carriage, he first took a hot bath to wash away the smell of alcohol, and then came to the villa where Jing Wei lived.

When Jingwei sensed someone approaching in his sleep, he suddenly opened his eyes, protected the baby Yan'er in the cradle with one hand, and held the Jingwei sword hidden in the pillow with the other hand.

"Ma'am, it's me."

Hearing Xiao Feng's reassuring voice, Jing Wei felt relieved and immediately fell into a broad and warm embrace.

Jingwei twisted her body and adjusted herself to a comfortable position. Without even turning her head, she asked, "Didn't you go to Zilanxuan? I thought you were going to stay overnight there~"

"Madam, I went to Zi Lan Xuan just to get information and listen to some songs."

While climbing the mountain to search for lotus, Xiao Feng was fishing by the river, saying: "Besides, how can those mediocre women in Zi Lan Xuan compare with Madam? How can I let Madam stay alone in an empty room?"

Feeling that Xiao Feng's shotgun was already loaded, Jing Wei's pretty face flushed slightly and said, "Don't... don't wake Yan'er up."

"Don't worry, ma'am. I will be very gentle."

After Xiao Feng finished speaking, he freed up one hand and gently covered Jingwei's little mouth.

The following 20,000 words are omitted...

The next morning,

Xinzheng City, Xiao Mansion.

Just as Xiao Feng was having breakfast with Jing Wei, a servant suddenly came to report that the newly appointed Sikou Lord had arrived and wanted him to cooperate in investigating a case.

When Jingwei heard this, his expression changed slightly and he cast a questioning look at Xiao Feng.

"Don't worry, ma'am. It shouldn't be a serious case. I'll be back soon."

Xiao Feng patted Jingwei's thigh, gave her a calm look, and then followed the servants to the living room.

When Xiao Feng came to the living room, he saw two figures sitting there.

One of the figures was dressed in purple clothes. It was Han Fei, whom Xiao Feng had met last night.

The other figure was wearing a light green gown and had a delicate and gentle appearance.

What a pretty girl~ No, it's a boy!

The handsome young man who seemed to be suffering from a lot of bullying next to Han Fei should be Zhang Liang in his youth.

"My name is Xiao Feng, nice to meet you, Lord Si Kou."

Xiao Feng bowed to Han Fei and asked directly, "I wonder why you came here today, Lord Sikou?"

"Mr. Xiao, do you know that two murders occurred in Xinzheng City last night?"

Xiao Feng frowned slightly and said, "Oh? Really? What does that have to do with me?"

"Mr. Xiao, you may not know that the identities of the victims of those two murders were rather special."

Han Fei observed Xiao Feng's expression and asked tentatively, "One of the dead was Hong Yu, the maid of Miss Nong Yu from Zi Lan Xuan, and the other was Liu Yi, the left military commander."

Xiao Feng suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. They both met me last night, and Liu Yi and I had a conflict. So Lord Sikou is suspecting that I am the murderer?"

"good!"

Han Fei nodded affirmatively and asked bluntly, "May I ask where Mr. Xiao was and what he did between midnight and 12 o'clock last night?"

"Let me think about it~"

Xiao Feng stroked his chin, and said with a look of reminiscence on his face: "I went to Zi Lan Xuan to drink and listen to music last night, and did not leave until midnight. After returning home, I took a bath first, and then went back to my room to sleep."

"Is there any witness?"

Facing Han Fei's scrutinizing gaze, Xiao Feng remained calm and said, "My maids and my wife can testify. Do you need me to call them over?"

"certainly!"

"Someone, go get Xiaohong and the others, as well as the lady, to come over to me."

"Yes, sir."

Soon, Jingwei, dressed in gorgeous clothes, and the four maids who helped Xiao Feng bathe and change clothes last night, came into the living room.

Han Fei first questioned the four maids. Since all four of them were witnesses, their credibility was relatively high. Han Fei believed that there was no need for them to lie about such things.

Compared to the four maids, Jingwei, the wife of the Xiao family, is more likely to give false testimony.

"Madam, may I ask if Mr. Xiao has been with you the whole time since he took a bath last night? Did he leave during the whole time?"

After Han Fei finished speaking, he stared at Jingwei's eyes, wanting to see if there was any flaw.

"To answer your question, sir, I can guarantee that my master did not leave last night."

Seeing Jingwei's certainty, Han Fei became more suspicious of Xiao Feng and couldn't help but ask, "Madam, your words are a bit too arbitrary. Can you guarantee that Mr. Xiao didn't leave after you fell asleep?"

"I can guarantee it!"

Jingwei nodded slightly and explained shyly, "My master is strong and energetic. I was serving him last night until the Yin hour (3:00 to 5:00) before I rested."

"…"

Upon hearing this, Han Fei and Zhang Liang looked at each other in surprise.

Really? I don't believe it!

If Jingwei didn't lie, then doesn't that mean Xiao Feng's ritual of intimacy lasted for at least several hours?

Even kidneys made of iron can't handle it!

Therefore, instead of believing Jing Wei's words, Han Fei and the others felt that she was giving false testimony for Xiao Feng.

What Han Fei and the others didn't know was that although Xiao Feng's kidneys were not made of iron, they had a very strong recovery ability, and one kidney was stronger than six!

"In that case, we'll take our leave now."

"You two, please!"

Since Han Fei had no other evidence to prove that Xiao Feng was the murderer of Liu Yi and Hong Yu, he did not expose Jing Wei's "lie" but left with Zhang Liang.

 I would like to thank my book friend Yiyezhixinqiu for the reward of 100 Qidian coins, and I would also like to thank other book friends for their rewards and support.
