Looking around, the city has been covered in heavy snow.

On the other side of the city wall, many people gathered.Under the corner, there was a corpse in black lying alone in the snow.

The corpse's face was dead white, and his eyes were staring blankly at the sky. The fear before death remained in his eyes, as if he had seen something frightening before he was alive. His expression was amazed.The eyes are more like a dry well that has swallowed many people. When Li Zhimao looked down, he could deeply feel the fear of the corpse.

The eyebrows and eyelashes of the corpse were also covered with frost and snow.Li Zhimao turned over the corpse, just like turning over a block of ice, it was hard and heavy, obviously the result of being frozen in the snow for a long time.

"This is the No. 15 corpse we found this month. Who is hiding among us and killing people?" Xu Zuo stood up after seeing the corpse, turned his head and glanced at everyone around him, as if he wanted to see the corpse with a glance. Find the murderer in the dark crowd.

Li Zhimao squatted in the corner, while searching for things that could prove his identity in the clothes on the corpse.

As soon as he turned over the corpse, a large amount of blood stains under the corpse were exposed. The blood had dried up, and the bright red blood soaked through a large expanse of snow beneath him, staining a piece of pure white, just like his daughter's powdered face. Extra bright red rouge was sprinkled.

"The location of the wound is different every time. This time it is here." Yuan Jinian also squatted beside the corpse. After Li Zhimao turned over the corpse, he pointed to the waist of the corpse.

Everyone looked at the wound.

Yuan Jinian's originally outstretched index finger bent down, and he pinched a small object from the snow with his thumb.

Everyone couldn't see what he found, so they had to enlarge their eyes and ask him, "What did your Highness find?"

Yuan Ji Nian rubbed the things between his fingers and didn't speak, but his lips moved for a while, and his eyelashes drooped. The others couldn't see the emotion in his eyes clearly, they only knew that he seemed to be weighing something thing.

The others had no choice but to wait silently for the next article, most of their eyes focused on Yuan Ji Nian.

"It's him." Yuan Jinian flipped his slender fingers to the top and spread out his palm, a little bright thing was lying in the center of his palm, glowing with a bright blue gleam, like a clear lake Wave floating water.

Others only thought that the "he" Yuan Ji Nian said was referring to the small crumb in the palm of his hand, so they all moved closer to take a closer look.

Li Zhimao also looked at it for a long time, but couldn't see clearly, so he had to ask again: "Your Highness, this piece of debris is..."

Yuan Ji Nian explained to them: "It's a small piece of a hidden weapon."

As for the murderer, after seeing this small piece of debris, Yuan Ji Nian knew it very well, while the others were still kept in the dark.

But why did Pei Qian kill these people?

The bodies don't look like theirs either.

As soon as he had this question, Li Zhimao next to him began to ask:

"Could it be that someone is deliberately intimidating us?"

Xu Zuo immediately replied, "Those Zhou people must have done this."

"Correct!"

"It must be!" The others agreed in unison.

"Since the discovery of the first corpse, we have sent more people around the city to investigate, but he can still sneak in and kill people. This person may not be too rampant."

"Yes, this person can kill people under our noses, I guess it must be..."

"I think so."

"He has been with us for a while, and he knows each of us like the back of his hand. It is easy for him to sneak into the city and kill people."

"What do you think, Your Highness?" When everyone was talking about their own thoughts, Ding You supported his crutches and cast a glance at him.

"..."

He heard familiar names several times in his ears, and at this moment, a few people mentioned Pei Qian, and Yuan Ji Nian opened his mouth which had just been closed.

"This matter has not yet been investigated, so don't jump to conclusions. Before the murderer is found, everyone should not be suspicious and affect the morale of the army. Violators will be dealt with by military discipline."

"Yes." Everyone had to stop discussing and answered him dejectedly.

After finishing his orders, Yuan Ji Nian also turned around and left.

"I feel that he must know who the murderer is." Xu Zuo patted the snow on his body, watching Yuan Ji Nian's back getting further and further away.

Ding You replied with a meaningful smile, "Maybe."



"What a bloody smell, do you smell it?"

The little soldier beside him clenched the sharp gun in his hand, and took a few deep breaths: "I smell it too, it seems to be from..."

He approached the place with the strongest smell, and finally stopped in front of a camp: "It must have come from here."

Before he could get the affirmation from his companion, he was dragged by his arm and covered his mouth at the same time.

The companion had a secretive expression on his face, and he let go of his mouth only after the two of them had walked far away.

Before he could question his companion, the companion pointed to the tent just now and said, "Look, what is that place?"

After seeing the camp he went to just now, his face turned pale and he couldn't speak clearly.

"That...that's not..."

"It's Mr. Pei's camp. Let's go quickly." The companion took his arm and was about to leave.

"Is Mr. Pei in danger?" He didn't move, just refused to leave.

The companion smiled: "He? I think it's dangerous to see him."

"Finally gone."

In the tent, Pei Qian breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the bed.He waited for the two people to leave before he began to take off his heavy night clothes.

As soon as his fingers touched the skirt, just such a small movement of pulling it down made him gasp.

The wound was on his right shoulder, and it would hurt if he moved it casually.

He tried to tear off the clothes carefully again, and the wound started to hurt like hell again.Being tortured impatiently, Pei Qian grabbed the hem of the clothes with her hands and tore the clothes heavily, revealing her white jade body completely.

It's just that this piece of white jade is flawed, and there is still a wound on the right shoulder with a deep red blood scab. The blood has not completely solidified, and some blood is oozing out from the wound because of his too much movement just now.

Rather than saying that a piece of white jade has flaws, it is more appropriate to say that it is a piece of high-quality blood jade soaked in blood, because not only his shoulders, but other parts of his body are also covered with large and small light red scars. There are at least two dozen wounds on his bruised body.

The medicine and gauze he had just used last night were still on the table for his convenience. Pei Qian walked to the table with her upper body on, and her loose hair covered his half-concealed back, and at the same time covered it. That big hideous wound.

With the medicine in hand, Pei Qian turned around and walked towards the bed, but there was a sudden light behind her, and the light rushed in.

Pei Qian stopped in her tracks, her ears caught the faint sound of footsteps behind her.

Turning around, Pei Qian saw the person clearly, and squeezed the medicine bottle tightly: "Get out, I didn't let you in."

"Why did Mr. Pei lose his temper so much? There are so many people, and you haven't killed them all, right?" Liu Yiwen didn't seem to be frightened by him, but was still deliberately provoking him with a faint smile.

"There are people you sent inside, right?" Judging from the meaning of Liu Yiwen's words, she probably knew what he had done these days, and Pei Qian didn't want to pretend to be with him for a long time, so she simply said the words directly out.

In the past few days, there have been wave after wave of people who want to kill Yuan Ji Nian, more or less more than a hundred.

Judging from the badges everyone wears, some are from the Emperor Zhou, some are from the royal family of the Song Dynasty, and the rest are from the Liu Yiwen sect. Wouldn't think of it either.

However, it can be seen from this that Emperor Zhou should have known Yuan Ji Nian's identity before sending someone to kill him secretly.

"Mr. Pei is really smart."

Liu Yiwen still had a gentle and non-aggressive smile, but her eyes were looking straight at the wound on Pei Qian's back, hiding a faint smile, and said calmly, "It's just that trash The body has been brought back by me and buried in the ground, just around Mr. Pei's tent."

"you……"

It's not because of fear, but because of Liu Yiwen's expression that is too calm and calm, he feels creepy, and he won't be able to speak any more for a while.

"I know Mr. Pei thinks I'm weird, but I also want to ask Mr. Pei, is it really worth it to protect a big Zhou's enemy after suffering so many injuries?" Liu Yiwen looked The look in his eyes, as if he was the strangest person.

"It has nothing to do with you." Pei Qian quickly picked up a thin dress from the bed and put it on, raised her hand, and shot a small arrow towards Liu Yiwen.

Liu Yiwen dodged around, the small arrow brushed past his shoulder, and when the gust of wind that pierced through the air came over, there was also the sound of cloth ripping in his ears.

There also appeared to be blood oozing from the shoulder.But Liu Yiwen didn't seem to notice, but slowly took out a letter from his sleeve.

"Mr. Pei, don't be in a hurry to kill me. Why don't you read General Pei's letter first."

When Liu Yiwen said that it was his father's letter, Pei Qian took a step back subconsciously, and turned her eyes to the side, resisting everything about his father from the inside out.But he couldn't be too obvious in front of Liu Yiwen, so he could only find a way to send him away first.

"Just let it go if you believe me, leave quickly, or I don't know if I will kill you."

Liu Yiwen put the letter on the table according to his instructions. Seeing this, Pei Qian's tense body relaxed a little. He picked up the medicine powder and poured it on the wound on his shoulder, roughly picked up the gauze and wrapped it around the wound Go up, waiting for Liu Yiwen to leave.

But after he finished treating the wound, Liu Yiwen still hadn't left.

"It's a pity that General Pei missed it."

"Have you read the letter?" Pei Qian turned her head and got dressed.

Before Liu Yiwen could answer, he had already stepped forward to Liu Yiwen, grabbed his lapel, and threw him to the ground, with the tiger's mouth firmly stuck on his neck, and asked sharply: " Have you read the letter?"

Liu Yiwen couldn't speak, but looked straight into his eyes, and smiled provocatively.

When Pei Qian's subordinates became stronger, Liu Yiwen clenched her palms tightly and mouthed:

"There's nothing wrong with Israel's serving others. No wonder you worked so hard to protect him. Didn't you just want to let your Pei family occupy a high position through him?"

When hearing this sentence, Pei Qian already knew what was written in the letter.

Not many people knew about Prince Zhou. When other people in the palace saw Emperor Zhou occasionally standing in front of the East Palace feeling sad, they just thought that Emperor Zhou missed the prince again.

Furthermore, this matter was of great importance and was deliberately kept secret. Except for a few of them who were often around Yuan Ji Nian who knew the truth, the only person in the palace who knew about this matter was Emperor Zhou.

So this time, of course his father didn't know that Prince Zhou had already changed the core.

It was just too much force, and the pain in his shoulder broke out again and again, and it took away his strength little by little, and Liu Yiwen's words made him even more distracted.

"I just want to kill him with my own hands." Pei Qian said in an unquestionable tone. He lowered his head and looked at Liu Yiwen contemptuously, "Then why did Mr. Liu kill him? The emperor agrees to your request, you might as well beg me, at least I know where your brother is."
