The fortune-telling princess: Marry a thousand-year-old man

Chapter 19 It’s night, involved in a murder case

In the memory of the original owner, there is a description of this tower, towering and majestic.

However, she felt that this tower had an indescribable chill.

Shivering, he continued to recall the memory of the original owner.

This tower has been there forever. My fathers and grandfathers didn't know what was in this tower, and they didn't let anyone go up and look at it.

It is said that the only person who can open the tower is the Prince Regent.

Lu Wan Ning pinched her chin and thought, if only Ye Canghao could open the tower, she didn't think there was anything good in the tower, so it would be better to hide far away.

"Ah...killed someone."

Lu Wan Ning was thinking about where to stay tonight when she suddenly heard someone shouting urgently in the distance.

Even the officers and soldiers patrolling the streets heard it and rushed here.

Lu Wan Ning heard that voice was somewhat familiar, thinking it was the watchman she met just now.

Before the officers and soldiers came, she came to the watchman in advance.

"Uncle, what's the matter?"

The watchman had already lost the thing he was holding. When he saw the person coming, he said in fear: "Little...little girl, leave quickly, you're going to kill someone."

I saw a masked man with messy clothes, holding a bloody dagger in his hand, and dragging a young girl on the ground.

The girl's clothes were torn and her hair was messy. She didn't need to think about what just happened.

Ah, this...

"Over here, quick."

Over there, the patrolling officers and soldiers gradually appeared.

The watchman even shouted: "Master, this way."

Seeing that the situation was not good, the masked man made sure that the person in his hand had more air coming out and less air coming in, so he left the person behind and ran for his life.

Seeing this, Lu Wanning didn't care about anything else. She stepped forward to check the girl's injuries and made sure she could still be saved. She quickly applied a hemostatic charm to the woman's injured abdomen. At the same time, her hands were covered in blood.

When the officers and soldiers approached, they saw her hands covered with blood. They all thought she was the murderer and swung their knives at her.

Lu Wan Ning worked hard to make sure that the person's life was not in danger, then wiped the sweat from his forehead and scolded these officers and soldiers for closing their eyes and listening, "Hey, what are you doing? It's not the person I killed."

One of the officers and soldiers shouted: "You didn't kill the person, look at your hands full of blood."

The watchman was trembling with fear, but he still spoke for the kind-hearted little girl, "Master, it's really not this girl. I just saw a masked man stabbing the girl on the ground, so I shouted, and then this A girl showed up, she and I had met before, and I urged her to go home early."

The officers and soldiers were confused and still refused to let down their guard. They pointed the tip of the knife at Lu Wan Ning and asked: "Why are you, a little girl, walking alone at night? Don't you know there is a curfew at night?"

Lu Wan Ning wanted to say that she really didn't know the curfew in this era. If she had realized this problem earlier, she would not have left the palace in the middle of the night.

But now is not the time to say this, "Hey, if you don't save people, you will really die."

Upon seeing this, one of the officers and soldiers carefully put away his machete and slowly stepped forward to check on the injured person.

When he noticed that his breathing seemed to be non-existent, he realized that the matter was serious and hurriedly urged: "Someone, take the victim to the hospital."

"Yes."

The other officers and soldiers sheathed their swords and carefully lifted the girl on the ground.

The watchman, who had calmed down, walked to Lu Wanning and protected him behind him.

"Little girl, it's okay, don't be afraid."

If it hadn't been for the amulet the little girl gave him just now, he would have been doomed.

After seeing the man in black murdering someone, he screamed and ran away, but he tripped over something on the way. When the amulet fell, he saw the murderer approaching.

The murderer raised the knife and dropped it. Just when he was about to deal with him, the amulet suddenly flashed with golden light, which made the murderer unable to open his eyes for a moment. Only then did he have the opportunity to stand up again and run away.

Lu Wan Ning smiled faintly, she was not afraid at all.

However, her evil talisman was used by the watchman to ward off evil spirits, but she didn't expect it to be wasted like this.

That's all, it's probably the watchman's fate, and this is what happened.

Since she had helped, but the result still couldn't be changed, there was nothing she could do.

In fact, she realized that the watchman would be killed by unknown things, so she kindly gave him the talisman seal, but she didn't expect that it would be used at this time by mistake.

Lu Wan Ning shook her head helplessly, fate is also luck.

"Uncle, I'm fine, are you okay?"

The person who is afraid must be the watchman, right?

I saw that he was still shaking a little.

The watchman looked at his trembling hands and smiled bitterly: "It's okay, uncle is okay too."

After sending the victim to the hospital, the remaining officers and soldiers gradually believed that the two men were witnesses.

"You two, since you have witnessed the murderer with your own eyes, please come with us."

Lu Wan Ning wondered what this had to do with them, "Hey, the murderer shouldn't have gone far yet. If you don't track the murderer, why are you spending your time here with us two ordinary people?"

"You dare to go out during curfew time. You are very brave. Come with us to the Yamen. We want to investigate your identity."

Officials have very upright reasons for arresting people.

"I..." Lu Wan Ning had nothing to say.

The watchman blocked her behind him and said: "Master, this little girl is probably separated from her family. Just do it well and don't embarrass her about this matter. I saw the murderer with my own eyes, although he was masked." His face, but I remember his eyes, let me describe them to you."

Seeing Mrs. Geng's kindness, Lu Wan Ning thought about the disaster in the near future when she would not be able to help him, so she had no choice but to accompany him on this last journey.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

The two followed the official to the Yamen. Because the investigators had gone to bed, the official had to temporarily put the two in jail until the trial tomorrow.

Lu Wan Ning, who entered the cell on the second day after arriving in ancient times, said that she disagreed with ancient feudalism. It was unreasonable for them to go to jail just for witnessing the murderer's killing process!

The watchman in the next cell heard her sigh and advised: "Little girl, don't worry, wait until the adults handling the case are on duty tomorrow, and we can go out after we explain the matter clearly."

"I'm fine, uncle," strangely enough, the watchman uncle seemed to trust the official.

"Uncle, why do you trust these officials so much? Didn't you say "official" means "don't come in if you don't have money?"

She saw on TV that ordinary people were most afraid of dealing with officials.

The watchman smiled happily and said: "With the regent sitting in charge, there are no officials in the imperial capital who dare to commit corruption."

"Oh?" Lu Wan Ning was curious and sat cross-legged on the ground, waiting for the watchman to explain to her.

The watchman smiled and said: "Little girl, I am a watchman. If you ask me to say how good the regent is, I really can't describe it well. In short, I know that with our regent here, there will be no corrupt officials in this world." You uncle, just relax."
