Chu Yan simply sat cross-legged, and said carelessly: "I don't care, I want to reconcile! I didn't agree to Shen Yan's matter! If I agreed, why would I run out? Are you and your mother too wishful thinking?"

The King of Changsha was slightly annoyed when he heard the words, glaring at her and said, "Shut up! Mother is all for you, how can you speak against her? It's nothing more than normal nonsense. If mother hadn't protected you many times, I would have been rude to you long ago!"

"Then you let me marry Qu He!" Chu Yan knew he was wrong, curled his lips and said, "As for Shen Yan, you don't care about him at all. He has a concubine, and I heard that he treats that concubine very well. "

"..." The fact that Shen Yan had a concubine really dissatisfied the King of Changsha. Except for having a concubine, he almost met all the requirements of the Queen Mother and the King of Changsha.But it was precisely because he had a concubine that the King of Changsha was hesitant to make a decision, and turned a blind eye to Chu Yanli's palace.

"Let me think about it again." The King of Changsha sighed, rubbing his brows and said tiredly, "I worry about national affairs, and your marriage is also the same. You are already twenty, and if you don't get married, no one outside will care about you." Know how to joke."

Chu Yan was not worried at all about what people outside said.If the sky falls, it won't be able to hit her, so if you want to hit Changsha King first.She wanted to persuade her again, but suddenly her ears moved, as if she heard screams outside.

She thought she was hallucinating, and the King of Changsha stood up suddenly, lowered his head and said to her, "What happened outside?"

As he spoke, he walked around the desk and walked out quickly, opened the palace door and shouted loudly: "Feng Ma! Where are you? Where did you die!"

In the palace road on the left, a short, fat man looked flustered, walked with his head down, and muttered to himself. After walking a few steps, he suddenly fell and nearly rolled down the steps.He got up in a hurry, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and walked to King Changsha in steady steps, and bowed deeply, as if he was still trembling.

"Where did you go?" Changsha King frowned and asked him, "What happened outside? Why did I hear a scream?"

Feng Ma's chubby body moved a little closer to King Changsha's ear, and whispered a few words.

Chu Yan came out, and seeing Feng Ma's terrified expression, he just felt that something big was about to happen.Sure enough, after hearing what Feng Ma said, King Changsha's face darkened, and he said with unprecedented dignity: "What? Is there such a thing?"

Feng Ma bent over and said anxiously: "The old slave has ordered people to surround that place. If the king doesn't believe it, he can go and see it. But the most important thing now is that the king has to call the people from Tingwei's mansion. Don't let it out, or it will cause panic!"

The king of Changsha kicked him lightly: "Then you should go!"

"Here! Here!" Feng Ma resigned obediently, and hurriedly disappeared into the night.

"What's the matter, my lord?" Chu Yan asked curiously, "What happened?"

Changsha King, who always doted on her, was sullen at the moment, not in the mood to tell her what happened. Instead, he urged her to go to the Ganlu Hall and let her talk with the Queen Mother.

Feng Ma dispatched the Habayashi Army to surround the bell tower overnight, and went to Tingwei's mansion non-stop, dragged and dragged the old Tingwei, who was looking through the files, into a carriage and brought them into the palace, and on the other hand, he asked someone to invite Tingwei Zheng Zhang He, he hesitated when calling Qu He, but decided to let Qu He come over to have a look, after all Qu He is valued by the king.

After Shen Yan led the Yulin army to surround the bell tower tightly, the old Ting Wei, Ting Wei Zheng Zhang He, Ting Wei Zuo Jian Qu and rushed to the palace together. He was going to see Changsha King, but he heard that Changsha King The bell tower, several people ran to the bell tower without resting.

The night is dark and starry, and the bell tower stands majestically in the southwest of the city, silent.Under the moonlight, the armored men with sharp swords and halberds stood under the bell tower with a cold expression.The King of Changsha stood on the bell tower, looking at the lights of thousands of houses outside the city with his hands behind his back. Those red lanterns were no longer the lights of the night at this time, but pairs of scarlet eyes, which made people frightened.He heard someone coming up from downstairs, and after a while the people behind him saluted him. He turned his head and couldn't hide his worry on his face: "Everyone, I am really disturbing you to enter the palace late at night. It's just that this matter is very important. Can't wait until dawn."

He turned around and pointed to the place where the two Habayashi soldiers were guarding. There was still a person lying on the ground.Taking the lantern from Shen Yan, he walked to the heavy bell and moved the lantern upwards. The light illuminated the blood dripping on the bell, and under the orange light, it looked weird and terrifying.

"You have all seen that the blood on it belongs to this palace man." The voice of Changsha King was slow and deep, and seemed to be a little hoarse, "During the palace confinement, a murder case happened, and it was in such an important place as the Bell Tower, which affected the people." It is huge and extremely corrupt. You all have a look, I ordered you to solve the case within three days, did you hear that?"

The three of them clasped their hands together and said, "Here!"

The King of Changsha still has something to do, he needs to appease the people in the palace. Although he has ordered the news to be blocked, there is no impenetrable wall in the world, let alone the palace.

After he left, Zhang He glanced at Princess Xianning first, Princess Xianning ignored his gaze, and went to the palace servant's body to look carefully.So he turned his head and looked at the old Tingwei again, and the old Tingwei seemed to be looking at the blood on the big clock very seriously, but he was actually distracted.

"How does Qu Zuojian feel?" Zhang He thought for a while, and walked up to Princess Xianning, and began to ponder over the corpse together.

Princess Xianning took the lantern from the hand of the guard next to her, and with the help of the light, illuminated the faces of the palace servants, down to the neck, body, hands, and feet.

Zhang He suddenly gasped in surprise, squatted down, carefully looked at the palace man's stomach, rolled up his sleeves and stretched out his hand to press it.

"What did Zhang Tingwei discover?" Princess Xianning said calmly.

Zhang He turned his head, smiled at her, and said, "Why don't you and I say something each to see if the inferences are consistent?"

"Okay." Princess Xianning stood up with a smile, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw the old court lieutenant who had been observing them pricked up her ears. She smiled nonchalantly, "Then start with me. Around ten, judging from the fact that her legs are deformed and bent, she lived in the palace since she was a child, or she must have lived in a place where there are many kneeling ceremonies. Long-term and frequent kneeling postures made her legs thicker than ordinary people. Be thick."

"She is from the north, and she has the obvious appearance of a northerner. She is tall, with a broad face and long hands." Zhang He took the conversation and analyzed, "She should have given birth to a child, and she had a child when she was in her 20s. She was seriously ill, as evidenced by the medicine bag she was carrying. She died from a sharp weapon, and the murderer must have been a man taller than her, and she knew him, so she was defenseless. After the sharp weapon pierced her chest, it was pulled out, and blood splashed on the On the ground. The reason for guessing that it was a man taller than her was because the wound on her body was caused by a dagger piercing downward. Judging from the way she fell to the ground, she was shouted by the murderer before she died, turned around and was killed. The time of death is probably within half an hour."

"Her clothes are commonly used by women in the palace, but the handkerchief in her sleeve is not from the palace. This person must have someone he knows outside the palace. And when she met the murderer on the bell tower, it must be If there is something that needs to be told to the murderer, the matter is very important and secret, because the clock tower is heavily guarded, she has a reason to take the risk to meet the murderer. Because the murderer is someone near the clock tower, most likely the Habayashi Army on duty." Xian Ning The princess pointed to the handkerchief in the sleeve of the palace man, and pointed to the Habayashi Army guarding downstairs.

"If you want to find out the truth, you need to know who she is, which palace she works in, whether she has family members outside the palace, and where this veil came from. Being able to kill people in the palace is not an ordinary high status."

Listening to the deduction of the two, the old Tingwei couldn't help but be suspicious: "Who is it that wants to kill people in the bell tower?"

??Chapter 63 She is sincere to you

When Song Zhi woke up, Princess Xianning was not in the guest house, not even Dou Tu, only Qing Nu was with her.She looked at the surrounding environment, staring at the bamboo slips spread out beside the bed in a daze, it seemed that someone left in a hurry last night, and she didn't even have time to put away the bamboo slips.She hoarsely wanted to call Qing Nu, but she lost her voice when she spoke, so she could only knock on the short table beside the bed, trying to attract Qing Nu's attention.
