Lost Charm

Chapter 99 East Palace

As soon as the crown prince said this, the surrounding conversations dropped significantly, and everyone pricked up their ears waiting for Xu Qin's answer.

Xu Qin still looked calm, but his heart was already flustered. He had a premonition that the prince would target him, but he hadn't thought that the prince would suddenly attack him.

Cold sweat broke out on his back at some point, he quietly wiped the sweat on his hands with his sleeves, his head was running at high speed to come up with a decent answer, but at this moment, he couldn't think of how to respond.

"Mr. Xu has something unbearable to say? You might as well say it directly." Seeing this, the prince immediately took advantage of the victory and pursued him.If Xu Qin was really shrewd, he should have flirted with him immediately, but he didn't react fast enough and fell silent. Among the crowd, he felt that there was really a difference between King Jing and the crown prince.

"With the words of the prince and the palace, the grass people are relieved." Xu Qin gritted his teeth, and now he could only say straight: "The grass people just arrived in the East Palace yesterday, and what happened to the grass people is still shocking in retrospect. It's really hard to judge the kindness of Prince Jing and His Highness the Crown Prince."

The prince's face changed, and dirty things in the palace would never be brought up in public. Xu Qin's remark was an insult to him, and his tone became cold at the moment, saying: "Mr. Xu is now referring to the lonely East Palace. Go to the palace of the second brother?"

"nature."

Of course it was Yu Chijiong who had the guts to say this. He strode up to Xu Qin, gently took Xu Qin's hand to comfort him, and said to the prince with disdain: "My family Xu Qin is timid, and his psychological shadow is not yet gone. Go ahead, the prince invites a beggar from the side of the street to come in, let him see the bloody thing last night and ask him, he will answer the side of the road better."

"Yu Chi Jiong, you are such a brave dog!"

With a bang, the prince threw the cup in his hand on the ground, and the officials immediately knelt down one by one on the ground, chanting the words "Prince calm down", but it was obvious that Xu Qin and Xu Qin were not among them.

"Didn't His Royal Highness want the grassroots to speak directly?" Although Yu Chijiong blatantly contradicted him, he also kept a mind in his words. If the prince reacted, he could make a fuss about Yuchijiong describing Prince Jing's mansion as a beggar on the street. Where I live.

It's a pity that the prince can't hear it anymore, his focus has been on the disclosure of last night's incident, and a discerning person can see that it is not simple. It took him a whole day to suppress it, and finally no news came from the East Palace, but The two actually spoke out in front of everyone.

"God, what's going on!"

When the crown prince and Xu Qin were confronting each other, a sudden exclamation came to everyone's ears, and everyone looked in the direction of the sound, only to see that the person who spoke was the official of the Mingdu Procuratorate, and even the bachelor didn't make a sound. The product official kind of chimed in.So everyone followed his line of sight again, and saw a snow-white puppy jumping in from the door wagging its tail. It was small and cute, and it was believed to be the lost pet of the prince and concubine, but those four dog paws walking on snow, However, it was stained with blood. As it moved forward step by step, a blood-stained footprint gradually appeared on the ground.

The faces of the people changed drastically. The appearance of such an ominous thing in the East Palace would definitely not be a good omen, especially since the crown prince had already had bruised veins, and his face seemed to have changed. Some bold officials poked their heads out, and there were also Against the background of the moonlight, the blood-colored small footprints stand out in bright red on the gray-white stone slab, which is so red that it is frightening.

How did this dog appear here in such a good way?Is the servant blind? Why don't you stop him?

It wasn't that the servants were lazy, but that the dog appeared out of thin air. They stood at the door all the time, and no one passed by. It was only when there was a sound in the hall that they were surprised to see a dog that was supposed to be in the harem coming with blood.

"What's going on!" The prince yelled at the eunuch beside him. Even though the maids rushed out to drag the ominous dog away, the bloodstains on the ground still hurt his eyes.

"Prince calm down, we have sent someone to investigate." The eunuch's head was covered with sweat, the prince had already been made unhappy by Yu Chijiong, what just happened just added fuel to the fire, the prince's anger would rise, and he might lose his head at any time.

Seeing that the focus had been shifted, Yuchi Jiong quietly led Xu Qin back into the crowd. He quickly glanced at Sun Lie and found that although the fox was also kneeling on the ground, there was no wavering in its eyes.He thought for a while, and followed the crowd to get closer to the ground, but instead of kneeling, he squatted.At the same time, he did not forget to give Xu Qin a firm handshake to signal the other party not to be afraid, but Xu Qin also shook back with force.

Xu Qin's face was a little pale, obviously he was intimidated, but he didn't run away, and stared at the bloodstains, Yu Chijiong couldn't help laughing when he saw this, Ji Hai's formation was to keep the current situation firmly in mind with.

This can be regarded as progress, if Yu Chijiong himself, not only would he remember it, but he would even catch the white dog to study it, but these preconditions are all based on the fact that the prince does not exist.But even so, Yu Chijiong still gestured to Xu Qin a few times, implying that he should not be too ostentatious.

Xu Qin and Xu Qin are flirting with each other here, while the prince over there is naturally furious - no one can see how the dog appeared.

"Trash! What's the use of a bunch of trash like you!"

The eunuchs and maids couldn't help trembling when they heard these words, usually the incumbent would start beheading people after saying these words, but this time it will take an unknown number of lives to suppress the prince's anger.At this moment, a guard came over, bit the bullet and whispered a few words to the prince, and the next moment, the table in front of the prince was kicked away along with the food.

Unfortunately, a sprout flew onto the face of Minister of Rites, but at this moment, he could only let his skin be friends with sprouts, who told him to be unlucky to sit in the first row?

"You all go back to Gu, who dares to say a word about what happened tonight, Gu can guarantee that you will suffer more than death!"

The prince left in a hurry after uttering a harsh word, and the remaining officials didn't dare to say anything, and all of them left with their asses on fire.Xu Qin and Yu Chijiong were let go just like that, they held hands and went back with Sun Lie, their unusually calm appearance was obviously completely different from those restless officials' style of painting.

"Tell me, what's going on." As soon as he returned to the room, Yu Chijiong stopped Sun Lie and asked him to tell the truth.

"I don't know what you're talking about." Uncle Sun Lie sat down on Arhat's bed, and pretended to be a fool.

"Ji Hai, look at Sun Lie's stinky fart." Yuchi rolled his eyes at the other party.

Xu Qin looked at Sun Lie with surprise in his eyes, but his tone was affirmative: "You made that dog."

"It is to save you from the sea of ​​suffering. If you dare to speak to the prince like that, ten heads are enough to kill you." If he hadn't reacted quickly and moved the dog from another place in time, they would never have had a good fruit tonight.Sun Lie snorted coldly and said, "Show such a face to your savior."

Yu Chijiong raised his eyebrows slightly, and did not comment on Sun Lie's words, but Xu Qin said bluntly: "Why do you have such a strong taste, I was so scared that I didn't see those people."

Speaking of this, Sun Lie's complacent face turned gloomy, he lowered his eyes, and said softly: "I didn't make the dog like that, it was because it accidentally entered by mistake..."

Xu Qin frowned and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Yu Chijiong knew what Sun Lie was referring to almost instantly, his face became serious, and he said, "It's the same way of death?"

"Yes, the same limb was nailed to the wall, and the blood flowed all over the place. The dog ran around at night, and it was only when it got down from the rockery that it discovered the tragedy." Sun Lie said calmly, he was sent out Collecting intelligence, instead of witnessing the scene of the crime again, when he received the news from his avatar, especially the puppy who didn't understand sex, thinking that people were playing with it, walking around on the red, immediately He was also so frightened that his legs went limp, and he almost spit out the wine at the banquet.

"Another one died?" Xu Qin said in a dumb voice. He couldn't react to this point, but his brain was flooded. He glanced at Yu Chijiong, saw him nodding, and immediately lost his strength and sat down: " How could it be like this?"

"This is no longer a provocation, it's obviously an addiction to killing. This time, the one who died was a court lady who was once favored by the prince. She had no name or title. She died...it didn't hurt the prince." Sun Lie revealed the identity of the victim , as he said, yesterday's court ladies could barely be said to be their servants, and today's dead have nothing to do with them. The abnormal killing methods can already characterize the prisoner as a serial killer.

"There is a serial killer in the East Palace. This news will definitely spread. I'm afraid no one will believe you when you say that Caihu murdered people." But I can't do anything in front of me, I really miss the days when I was a thousand households.

To be precise, it is the taste of missing power.

"It will definitely spread. I have found Prince Jing's spies." Sun Lie was very optimistic about this.

"So what if Prince Jing knows we're stuck here?" Yu Chijiu pierced Sun Lie's daydream right to the point. They were not important enough to be worthy of King Jing's rescue.

"What was the dead man nailed to the wall?" Xu Qin didn't speak for a while, but brought the topic back to the case when he opened his mouth.

"Let's think about it... I can't see clearly and I dare not go forward to see clearly. It should be a branch, a long branch." Sun Lie closed his eyes and drew a length, about the length of a dagger.

"Long wooden sticks first, and then branches..." Xu Qin gave Yu Chijiong a begging look, now he only saw that the murderer was good at using long weapons, but nothing else.

"I can only see so much." Yu Chijiu spread his hands helplessly, this time Ji Hai quickly discovered the connection between the two cases, but unfortunately the same sentence - what can they do?

Xu Qin bowed his head unwillingly, he always felt that he had forgotten something, and it was very important for tonight's case to go over this thing.

"You don't see things comprehensively, can't you see that the murderer likes to pin people on the wall?" Sun Lie had a rare opportunity to tease Yu Chijiong, so naturally he would not let it go.

wall?

Xu Qin suddenly opened the door, and without thinking about it, he opened the door and rushed out. Yu Chijiong and Sun Lie glanced at each other, and quickly followed out, only to see Xu Qin standing motionless at the door, with his head raised, staring at the corridor somewhere.

The mysterious knife mark that was only engraved yesterday, today there is one more under it.
