Star Trace Gate

Bedroom.

Ren Ye stood side by side with Lian'er, looking solemnly at his room, feeling very nervous.

The internal situation in Prince Huai's Mansion is complicated. A trivial matter may lead to trouble or even loss of head. As for the servants in Zhu Zigui's palace, they were all veterans who had been in the palace for many years. There was no possibility that anyone would "recklessly enter" King Huai's palace.

All three hair strands were broken. Someone must have sneaked into the room while he was going to see the princess.

"brush!"

While he was thinking, Er Lun, who had just entered the room to check, came out without any sound of footsteps: "Your Highness, there is no one in the room."

"Have you found them all?" Ren Ye asked cautiously.

"There must be no one." The honest look on Er Leng's face disappeared, replaced by seriousness and calmness: "But we still have to search to prevent the thieves from setting up hidden weapons."

"I will ask people to search for you right now." Lian'er interrupted.

Ren also looked at her: "Remember, you must call someone trustworthy, not too many, just three or five people."

"Yes." Lian'er saluted and left in a hurry.

Er Leng stood at the door of the palace, with his right hand pressing the famous sword Yao Yue beside him, and asked Ren Ye curiously: "Your Highness, how did you find out that someone had entered the palace?"

"I have my own way." Ren Ye replied in a calm tone, thoughtfully.

He was tying his hair behind his back, and he didn't know it.

Ren Ye had worked at the border for many years and had participated in several undercover missions. He had long been accustomed to surviving in dangerous environments, and many of his actions were subconscious. Tying his hair is just a routine operation. He also likes to keep his phone completely cleared. Chat, call records, etc. are all 0, and he never downloads any small programs that can show his living habits.

Of course, Ren Ye himself didn't like this habit. He thought it was a disease, a disease that made everyone look dirty, but this disease saved his life several times.

Standing in the dimly lit corridor, Ren Ye began to "read" Zhu Zigui's memory. He wanted to find out whether this waste had any important items hidden in the palace.

I went through it carefully and didn't recall any important information.

If it’s not stealing, then what does someone want to do when they enter your room?

Tread...  

There was a sound of footsteps, and Lian'er returned with four trusted eunuchs.

"See Your Highness." The four of them saluted respectfully.

In Zhu Zigui's memory, only these personal eunuchs and maids around him could be trusted, but this was not absolute, there was still the possibility of them rebelling.

Ren Ye nodded slightly in response and winked at Er Leng.

"You come in with me." Er Leng pressed the invitation with his hand and led four eunuchs into the hall.

The door to the main hall of the palace opened inward. Ren Ye and Lian'er only stood in the corridor and observed, not daring to step forward.

Er Leng led four young eunuchs who moved swiftly, and searched carefully, including blind spots in the palace and places that were difficult to observe, and searched everything inside and out. Even several teapots were tested for poison with silver needles, but there was nothing unusual.

Er Leng stood in the center of the hall, looked up at the beams, and reminded carefully: "Look at the dusty areas to see if there are any marks. Be more careful."

"Yes."

The little eunuch on the left wiped his sweat, knelt on the ground, moved his body bit by bit, and looked for traces along the bookshelf.

Next to the bed, a young eunuch with delicate features and delicate features, who was only about sixteen or seventeen years old, took off his shoes, boots and coat respectfully, and then carefully groped upwards along the footbed.

This job is actually the most difficult to do. The ancients paid attention to the distinction between superior and inferior, and the royal rules were very strict. Once you find something too personal on the prince's bed, you will lose your mind. After all, a servant like this at the lowest level is not a legionnaire of the imperial court, and he has no backers...

No matter what time it is, it is difficult for "Little Karami" to live.

The little eunuch was frightened, but he didn't dare not be careful. After a while, sweat started to form on his forehead.

Er was stunned and landed silently from the beam, walked towards Ren Ye and reported: "Your Highness, there are no traces of the thief hiding here. I thought...!"

"Oh!"

At this moment, the little eunuch on the bed had just opened the red quilt, and unconsciously stepped on the edge of the bed with the sole of his right foot, making a muffled sound, which attracted everyone to look at him.

"You slave is so clumsy...!" The older eunuch turned around and scolded.

"what?"

The little eunuch's body lying on the bed suddenly stiffened. He looked curiously under the quilt and saw a soft, unnamed flesh worm, which slowly unfolded its curled-up body.

Er Leng suddenly turned his head, and his body suddenly exuded a powerful murderous aura.

"brush!"

The famous sword Yao Yue was pulled out from its homemade leather sheath, and he shouted in shock: "No...!"

"puff!"

The flesh worm on the bed emitted a burst of strange black light, which shot up like a bullet and shot directly into the little eunuch's eyebrows.

It all happened so fast that there was no time for anyone to react. Standing in the corridor, Ren Ye saw only a bright black light, and the little eunuch fell down from the bed on his back.

"what!!!"

Immediately afterwards, painful howls resounded. The little eunuch covered his forehead with both hands, his body twitched and rolled on the ground: "Then...the eggs got into my head...Your Highness, save... …help me……!"

The other three eunuchs were the first to react. Without thinking too much, they rushed over.

"Don't move!" Er Leng rushed into the door to stop him.

Ren Ye and Lian'er followed closely behind. The former looked at the little eunuch dumbfounded: "Er stunned, save him!"

"If we can't save him, please don't get close, Your Highness!" Er Lenghu stood in front of Ren Ye, his muscles tensed up, holding a knife in one hand, staring at the little eunuch on the ground, as if he was ready to risk his life at any time.

"Ah!! Save...save...!"

The little eunuch covered his forehead, his body was twisted and deformed, and he made a sharp plea while struggling desperately.

"It... hurts so much... Pfft!"

He suddenly turned over and put his limbs on the ground. When he roared, a stream of black fireworks came out of his mouth.

This scene completely shocked Ren Ye. Although he stood far away, he could feel the heat of the black flames, and even the stone ground was filled with green smoke.

boom!

The fire shot up from the Tianling Cap, and the little eunuch's figure became distorted. In less than two breaths, his whole body was enveloped in black flames, and he burned from the inside out.

Everyone immediately retreated outside the palace, frightened inside, looking at what was happening in front of them with wide eyes, but they could not do anything to help.

After about ten breaths, the black flame gradually weakened until it went out.

The originally lively and cautious eunuch now only left a few skeletal remains and a fishy smell floating throughout the palace.

In just a dozen breaths, he was burned alive and burned out.

Ren Ye stared blankly at the traces of human figures on the ground. The bones were broken into pieces, and the back of his neck was swaying in the cool breeze.
