The willow trees on the bank of the river swayed slightly in the wind.

When I looked into the center of the river, I could see several large ships in colorful costumes moving slowly, and from the direction of the big boats came a distant and ethereal sound, which seemed to be the sound of waves surging and like a rhythmic echo.

On one of the big boats, a group of rich sons on a spring outing were chanting poems, and one of them said: "Everyone, now we have six princesses in the country, Princess Yanshang, Princess Zixing, Princess Blue Night, Princess Xiaoyao, Princess Yunyi, and Princess Yuyin. ”

"The princess of the blue night is now seventeen years old, a song of blue charm, I don't know how many women in the boudoir regard it as a divine comedy, if I marry a wife, I will marry a woman like the blue night." A boy said loudly.

"Blue Night? I prefer Princess Yunyi, I heard that Princess Yunyi knows how to paint, although her paintings are only spread in the palace, but there are imitations circulating outside, I had the pleasure of witnessing once, that painting does not look like a thing in the world, if you can marry such a woman as a wife, there will be no regrets in this life, but it is a pity that we are able to write poetry, and it is worse to get fame. Another son said.

Another son said: "It's easy to get fame in the exam, it's difficult to marry a princess, today's emperor, everyone knows that he spoils his children, and everyone looks at the treasure, and the eldest princess herself is willing to marry that Wei Li, otherwise even if Wei Li is the youngest marshal of the empire, there will never be the possibility of marrying a princess."

"I understand, if you want to marry a princess, you must first get the princess's heart." One of the sons said.

"But we won't even see the princess." Another boy said.

At this time, a Xiao Si suddenly came in, came to the side of the son who had been silent at the head, and whispered a few words.

Seeing that the son, who had been very calm and did not speak, suddenly showed an extremely shocked expression, and it took a while to come back to his senses, wave his hand, and let Xiao Si leave.

With a serious expression, he said, "All irrelevant personnel retreat." ”

So the dancing girls and the women who accompanied the wine all left here, and the cabin became quiet for a while, and the sons who were on a spring outing together also knew that something big must have happened, and they didn't dare to speak, and the room became smelly of pins dropping.

The footsteps of the people leaving outside slowly became quieter, and after a while, they could not be heard, they should have gone to the deck below the third floor, and the deck was separated by four or five floors, and the conversation here must not be heard.

"The second prince was assassinated." The head of the son said.

"What?" A prince almost screamed, who didn't know that the second prince was the heir to the future throne, he felt very angry, who killed the second prince, who sent the assassin, who hated the second prince so much?

"It can't be," the other questioned.

"The message is true." The head of the child explained.

"Killing the second prince is to cut off the inheritance of our country of separation, maybe we should start a war and let the other party see that we are not easy to bully!" Another boy said.

The furrowed eyebrows of the leading prince became more and more concentrated, and then said: "It is not only the second prince who died, but also the fourth prince, the sixth prince, and the tenth prince, all of whom were assassinated together, and the place where they were assassinated was on the birthday banquet of the eldest princess. ”

After the head of the prince finished speaking, one of the sons was taken aback and said, "This is impossible, how can the eldest princess?" ”

Another person said: "This is someone who wants to frame the eldest princess, and he killed the four princes at once, and it is really dangerous to die." ”

"Let's be quiet" The son said: "I didn't listen to your quarrel, now the main thing is to think about it, what should we do?" ”

A boy stood up and said, "Brother Xu, slow down, I think there is still a possibility?" ”

"You say," said the head childe.

"Brother Xu, I think it's possible that the eldest princess wants to ascend to the big treasure." The boy said.

"It can't be." The head of the son said.

"Brother Chao, how is it impossible, I also think it is possible, but even if it is true, we can't go around saying it, otherwise I am afraid that there will be a disaster of blood and light." Another said.

"Everyone has made an appointment, don't talk nonsense at this time, the world is full of people, we don't say it, others will say it, wait until the rumors come, and then it's okay to talk about it, but don't talk about it now." The head of the son said.

So everyone stopped talking about what happened just now, and after ten minutes, the dancing girls who left were called back, and the sons continued to have fun, drinking and teasing the beauty in their arms.

After three rounds of drinking, the sons were drunk, I don't know who said: "Alas, how good it would be if the Grand Duke was not married, even if she became the emperor, it was actually not bad, tsk, think about a female emperor If she can be my woman, it would be good, four princes, die...... It's dead, what's the big deal, kill ......" halfway through the wine talk, he was covered by the person next to him with his hand, and then went to look at the maids around him, and found that there was no reaction, so he was relieved, after all, people will say anything when they are drunk, and it is estimated that no maid will take it seriously.

In the evening, the banquet dispersed, and the sons let the boat dock, and then they parted and went home in a carriage.

In the dark night, a group of black-clothed people appeared, their figures were women's, gathered in a corner, and then separated, their martial arts seemed to be very good, a few flickered, and disappeared into the darkness.

Early the next morning, in the lobby of the Fushui County Ya, there were 18 corpses, these 18 corpses, both men and women, all died by cutting their throats, and what they had in common was that they were on the same boat yesterday.

The county magistrate was sitting in the lobby with a sad face at the moment, looking at the eighteen corpses placed below.

The murderer is obviously a tight-knit organization, and he is a little scared in his heart, after all, although he is an official, the other party is in the shadows, and it is easy to kill him, if he continues to investigate, he will definitely be able to gain something, but maybe he may encounter accidents.

"Lord Bing, there is a female official outside who claims to be from the capital and wants to see you." The errand officer said.

"Let her go to my study." The county official said that he was keenly aware that the other party might have something to do with this organization and this case, after all, he didn't come sooner or later, but it was a bit strange to wait until now.

"Long County Order, the above means that this matter should not be pursued further." The woman in a strong suit came to the study and placed a token on the table.

The dragon county order, who originally felt a little puzzled, was startled when he saw the token, because this token is the token of 'dragon guard', which is cast in a special metal, and ordinary people have no ability to imitate it.

"Okay, I got it." After all, this world is still the Zhu family, and the Long County Order knows who this matter has to do with it, it must be the royal family, and he really can't continue to investigate.
