The driver of the car honestly waited outside the palace, but after waiting for more than half an hour, he almost fell asleep while sitting on the wheel.

"Get up-get up-what to sleep-" There was a cry from someone, the coachman was startled, and woke up suddenly, no matter who the person was, he bent down in fear and said: "Master forgive me, the little one didn't sleep, the little one closed his eyes and waited." ”

The little guy guarding the door sneered: "If you don't hurry up and pull the curtains, the old ancestor will come out immediately." ”

The coachman looked up, recognized that it was the little guy guarding the door, and secretly scolded, just in time to see the old man being helped out of the gate by the two, he quickly took a small wooden ladder, and opened the curtain of the car and waited for someone to come.

However, when he got closer, he noticed that Elder Chang was a little strange, and couldn't help asking, "Ancestor, what's wrong with this?" "It looks like it's unconscious.

One of the two people holding the elder said: "I drank some wine with the old man and fell asleep." ”

The coachman sniffed, and sure enough, he smelled a smell of wine, so he no longer doubted, and opened the curtain even more, so that the two of them could help the old man into the car.

After settling down with the old man, one of them said: "Before the old man woke up, he said that he still had something to go to the Hou Mansion, you drive directly to the Hou Mansion, don't make too much noise on the road, if you disturb the rest of the ancestors, don't do this work." ”

"Yes, yes, I know." The coachman jumped into the carriage with a smile, and as soon as the whip was raised, the carriage drove towards the Hou Mansion.

After Wuying went to the Ling Mansion, Gong Xiru had been waiting uneasily. After hearing a noise coming from the inner room, he hurriedly walked in and saw Ling Yi sitting up.

Sit down on the edge of the bed. He smiled and said, "Why are you awake, but worried?" Don't worry, I've got you covered. ”

Ling Yi looked at him quietly for a while before lying in his arms and said softly, "I'm not worried, it's because you're worried too much, and you haven't slept so late." I've heard what you've just said, and if you can keep up, nothing will happen. Even if it is discovered, it does not necessarily mean that the case will be settled. ”

Gong Xiru squeezed her soft hand and said, "I shouldn't have been so alarmed, but when I encountered your incident, I was at a loss." For fear that one will accidentally fall into the trap of those people. Floating Life - You have to be good, you must stay by my side well, if I don't have you, I don't know how to live. ”

Ling Yi snorted: "Where is it so exaggerated, without me before, you wouldn't be living well." ”

"That was before I had you, before I experienced the beauty and happiness of having you, before we got married. I miss you every day, and I'm afraid you don't like me. I didn't want to bother you, so I had to find all sorts of excuses to see you—God still favored me after all. ”

Ling Yi's heart has softened, she doesn't think about the outside world, as long as she is in this room, as long as she relies on this person next to her, she feels that she can unload all her burdens and all her defenses, and she doesn't even have to think about what to do next.

Neither of them spoke, both immersed in the beauty and tranquility of this moment, but soon, the noise broke the silence of this moment.

Ling Yi looked up and asked puzzled, "What's going on outside?" Why is it so noisy. ”

Gong Xiru frowned slightly, got up and walked out, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw Gong Sheng stumbling towards him with a frightened face.

"Master Hou-no, go to the front yard and have a look, old man-he-he-" Gong Sheng trembled and didn't know how to continue, because everything happened so suddenly that he couldn't think about it.

"What the hell is going on?" Ling Yi had already dressed and walked out and asked.

Gong Sheng bent down and choked up, "The two masters should hurry up and take a look." ”

Led by Gong Sheng, Ling Yi and Gong Xiru came to the front yard, and at this time, a large group of subordinates were already surrounded in the courtyard, and they didn't know what they were discussing.

"Hou Ye is here, Hou Ye is here-" The crowd automatically moved out of the way, Gong Xiru and Ling Yi stepped forward, but after seeing the person lying on the ground, both of them were shocked, Ling Yi breathed sluggishly, took a step back, stared straight at the corpse on the ground, Gong Xiru hurriedly supported her, and asked angrily, "What's going on?" ”

Gong Sheng was so frightened that his voice trembled, and he led the little guy guarding the door to reply: "It was he who found the body of the elder and then told the little one, and the little one went to report to the Hou Ye, and we don't know everything else, and we don't know why the elder is like this, why he is here." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone outside shouting, "Go in at once - arrest the murderer." As soon as the words fell, the door was knocked open, and then a large group of torches poured in, among which Luo Hui was the leader, and this kind of battle frightened the subordinates of the Hou Mansion one by one to shrink their necks, and they were afraid in their hearts.

Wuying didn't know when he appeared in front of Gong Xiru, and whispered in the latter's ear: "Master Hou forgives his sins, when he goes down, it's already late, his subordinates didn't expect that this Luo Hui would take people to Soling Mansion in the middle of the night, at this time Ling Yi has been alarmed, Master Ling should be on the way here." ”

Ling Yi heard it clearly, and said with a cold smile: "This real murderer is really painstaking, Luo Hui must have been led over, it seems that this time, the person behind this scene is determined to put me to death-"

Gong Xiru held his hand and said earnestly as if he had sworn an oath: "I won't let anyone hurt you, believe me." ”

The smile on the corner of Ling Yi's mouth gradually brightened: "I have always believed in you, I am nothing good as a person, it is just a big fate, all these years, which time have I not come from the ghost gate, they want to kill me, and it depends on whether the king of Hades dares to accept my life." ”

Luo Hui and the others who broke in, saw that the courtyard was brightly lit and full of people, they were also shocked, Luo Hui saw Gong Xiru and Ling Yi standing in the center of the crowd, and ordered his people to stop first, and he squeezed through the crowd and walked forward.

He was so focused on Gong Xiru and Ling Yi that he didn't notice his feet, so he tripped over the corpse of the old man without warning, and just as he was about to scold, he looked at a pair of dead eyes, and in an instant, it was like a cold air entering the body, and the coldness rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and he was stunned for a moment before he screamed and crawled out of the distance.

"Dead man-dead man-" Luo Hui crawled into the crowd in embarrassment, trembling with fright, and only those frightened eyes stared at him in his mind, as if he was looking for his life.

Seeing this, the people standing on the periphery immediately surrounded it with weapons, and the subordinates of the Hou Mansion retreated to the side one by one, and finally let the elder in the middle appear in front of everyone, and the guards were also shocked, why was there a corpse lying on the ground? Could it be-

Someone stepped forward to help Luo Hui up, and asked in the latter's ear in a low voice: "My lord, there is a dead body in the Hou Mansion, do you want to let the priest come to the autopsy?" ”

Luo Hui came back to his senses a little, and everything came to him in an instant, he turned his head sharply to look at Gong Xiru, and asked, "Why is there a corpse in the Hou Ye's mansion?" Xia Guan saw that person - it seems to be the third elder of the Gong family? ”

Gong Xiru said expressionlessly: "I don't know about this matter, it was reported that there were dead bodies in the house, why are there dead bodies in my house?" Please also ask Lord Jing Zhaoyin to be aware of this matter.

In addition, this person is the ancestor of the palace family, the palace family has two murders in a row, which should not be underestimated, and he also asked Jing Zhaoyin to write a book overnight, and ask the emperor to cooperate with the military department to investigate this matter, and Ben Hou will also play, asking the emperor to find out the truth and catch the murderer of the two elders of my palace family. ”

"The thief shouted to catch the thief, I see that the murderer is among you people, come and immediately surround the Hou Mansion, the real murderer is still at the scene, no one is allowed to enter or exit, and those who violate the order will be beheaded." Luo Hui ordered loudly, and the guards immediately surrounded everyone in the courtyard, and the scene suddenly reached the point of tension. (To be continued.) )
