Among their group, Nangong Ruoli's water nature is the best, and in the years on Jueya Mountain, it is not an exaggeration to say that she grew up in water.

So seeing her in the water, Gu Lingxi was very relieved at first.

But Nangong Ruoli didn't come up, Gu Lingxi saw that there had been no movement, and he was about to jump into the water as soon as the cloak was untied, but he was stopped by the guards, and some of the guards had already started to go into the water.

But before the guards could move further, a figure flew down faster than anyone else and jumped into the water.

Underwater, Nangong Ruoli was already drowsy due to lack of oxygen, and after entering the water, she felt that someone was grabbing her feet below and pulling her to the bottom of the water.

And she did see a few figures hiding under the lake.

When Luo Yitian came up, what he saw was that Nangong Ruoli's leg was firmly entangled by aquatic plants, and she had lost the strength to break free.

Without hesitation, he swung his sword and cut off those aquatic plants, Nangong Ruoli was held by Luo Yitian and jumped out of the water at once.

may be because she has been in the water for too long, Nangong Ruoli's face is a little purple,

After taking a few breaths hard, Nangong Ruoli shouted at the guards of the Imperial Palace, "Hurry up and there are people under the water, follow the flow of water at the bottom of this lake, and arrest people!" ”

Gu Lingxi's face was not good-looking, and she walked over quickly to look at Nangong Ruoli, "How are you?" Scare the hell out of you! ”

"I didn't ......"

"It's entangled in water and grass underneath, and if it's a little bit late, the person will die!" Luo Yitian looked at Nangong Ruoli coldly, "Can you be so willful because you have good water nature?" ”

Maybe it was because Luo Yitian's tone was a little rushed, Nangong Ruoli turned his head and glanced at him, "You took gunpowder?" ”

Luo Yitian, "......"

"Okay, don't quarrel, go back and change your clothes, let people prepare some ginger soup, and come out after you drink it!"

"I don't need ginger soup, I'll come over after I go back and change my clothes!"

Nangong Ruoli said while being pulled away by Luo Yitian, "When she drinks the ginger soup, I will send the person over!" ”

At this time, Nangong Ruoli was already fine, and Gu Lingxi was in the mood to deal with this sudden incident.

First, he glanced at the maid beside him, "Go back to the prince, and say it's okay, let him not have to come!" Entertain the guests in the front yard! ”

"Yes, Crown Princess!"

After the maid faded, Gu Lingxi glanced at the people around her, "I'm really sorry for this kind of thing to happen, please move to the guest garden, this palace knows that the matter is not clear, and you will not be at ease, so let's just take advantage of everyone's presence to ask things clearly!" ”

This is exactly what everyone can't ask for, whether it's for their own justice or to watch the excitement, in short, it's to figure out the beginning and end of the matter!

In the guest garden, Gu Lingxi looked at the group of people inside, and slowly spoke, "First of all, in the direction of the fire in the Imperial Palace, the fire did not burn, but it produced a very thick smoke, and no one was injured!" ”

After saying this, Gu Lingxi looked at the girl who fell into the water just now, she was the daughter of a civil official in the imperial court, and she seemed to be the kind of lady who was very weak in standard.

What happened just now was obviously frightening her hungry, and at the moment she was pale as if she would faint at any moment.

"What do you call this one?" Gu Lingxi asked.

The young lady reacted slowly, "Back to the crown princess, courtier Zhou Cai'er!" ”

"Miss Zhou!" Gu Lingxi nodded, "Can you recall a little bit, how did you fall into the water?" ”

Zhou Caier's face was still a little suspicious, "It seems that someone pushed me, but there was obviously no one behind me when I was standing, and then I felt as if something had hit my leg, and as soon as my knee was weak, the person slipped into the lake!" ”

"Then can you think carefully about whether someone pushed you, and someone plotted against you, so you fell into the lake?"

Gu Lingxi's question made Zhou Cai'er's brows furrow deeply, and she thought for a while before shaking her head, "I...... I really didn't notice, but no one would be trying to hurt me, right? ”

She is just the daughter of a civil official, and she is soft-spoken, so under normal circumstances, no one will frame her, and she is afraid that she is a drunkard who does not mean to drink.

"Since Miss Zhou really can't figure out the whole story, then our Imperial Mansion can only be sorry for everyone for the time being!" Gu Lingxi looked around, "In the next time, please remember to each other, when something happened, who were around you!" Who hasn't been in front of your eyes from beginning to end! ”

This is to let everyone testify to each other, but many people don't care, after all, if you don't do bad things, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, and you can help the Royal Mansion investigate the truth of the matter, and it won't be no good.

So soon, everyone started talking about it in twos and threes.

"I'm sorry for everyone, try to remember when you were together, who you were with, and how long you were together, so that it will be convenient for us to investigate more clearly."

After saying this, Gu Lingxi instructed the maid on the side to call Tian Ke out and let Tian Ke go with him to record everyone's time.

At the end of the inquiry, before I had time to sort it out, the guards of the Imperial Palace's palace over there had already brought the assassins found in the lake and escorted them over!

"Crown princess, there are a total of four people in the lake, two people were killed on the spot, one committed suicide, and this last one is left!"

Gu Lingxi looked at the person who was thrown on the ground and even had his chin removed, and frowned, "People from the Western Regions? ”

Gu Lingxi, who didn't look at that person at all, stubbornly lay on the ground and pretended to be dead.

Seeing this, the guard was about to kick the man's body, but was stopped by Gu Lingxi.

Glancing sideways at the back, a maid behind him immediately cleverly came over with a small medicine box.

Picked out a bottle from it and threw it to the guard, the guard knowingly poured out the pill and fed it to the man, just for a moment, the man collapsed on the ground like mud, looking at Gu Lingxi with a frightened face.

The guard stepped forward and pressed his chin back, and the man immediately spoke, with a strong Western accent in his tone, "What did you do to me?" ”

As soon as the man spoke, the faces of the two people in the crowd changed at the same time.

Liu Jingxian looked at Lin Xian'er, who was also pale, and asked her silently what was going on, didn't she say that everyone had been dealt with? Now what's going on?

And Lin Xian'er was even more flustered at the moment, the plan had completely changed, the assassination that was supposed to have turned into an assassination like this, and she was completely unaware of the arrangements in between, things became like this, and she didn't know how it would develop next.

Will these people from the Western Regions really confess themselves as they promised before?

What should they do if they do confess themselves? Don't you admit it to death? Did it work?

Lin Xian'er, who was flustered, didn't notice at all that a wisp of white smoke followed her breath into her body......
