Chapter 120: Murderous in Prison
"They found out you escaped from the prison?" Xiao Yihan asked Shen Yunxi as he ran forward. Obviously, he also found out that Shen Yunxi was running from the direction of the Heavenly Prison.
Shen Yunxi shook his head and said, "No, they should be patrolling here." It's not time for a shift change on the prison side, but we must get rid of them. There will be a change of shift in another quarter of an hour, and by then I have not returned or been caught by them, and the emperor is afraid that he will not be able to hide it. ”
"Hmm." Xiao Yihan hummed lightly and agreed with Shen Yunxi's words.
At this time, a thought suddenly broke into Shen Yunxi's mind, she looked at the corridor ten meters in front of her left, she pointed there, and said to Xiao Yihan: "Yihan, go over there." ”
Xiao Yihan's sword eyebrows twisted slightly, although he had doubts in his heart, he also understood that Shen Yunxi would not say this to him for no reason, so he quickly ran in the direction of the corridor. Soon, the two of them hid around the corner of the corridor.
They were so anxious that she almost forgot that she still had medicine on her.
The guards behind him followed, but they didn't see their figures, standing outside the corridor and looking around, but they didn't see that in the corridor next to them, a white shadow suddenly rose into the air and stopped on the beam of the corridor.
The leading guard was about to command his subordinates to search around, when a mellow voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "What are you doing here?!" ”
The guard turned around and saw Wei Qian walking over with a long sword, full of courage.
"An assassin broke into the palace, and when he was chased here, he disappeared." The leading guard bowed his hand and said to Wei Qian respectfully.
Hearing this, Wei Qian asked in a cold voice: "Even if you are an assassin, why didn't you open the gong to inform the others, do you think that you alone can successfully capture the other party?!" ”
The guard was stunned for a moment, and then immediately bowed his head and admitted his mistake and said, "Dereliction of duty, please lead the punishment." ”
"Go down and get thirty sticks!" Wei Qian ordered without hesitation.
"Yes!" The guard replied in a deep voice, then looked up at Wei Qian, and said sharply, "But before he can be punished, he must catch the assassin in order to repay the merits." ”
Wei Qian glanced at the few people behind the guard, waved his hand, and said, "Okay." I'll take over here, you go down first. ”
"Yes." Although the guards were unwilling, he had to listen to Wei Qian's words, so he had to answer and turn away.
Wei Qian looked at his departing figure, then turned his head and commanded the guards who stayed behind with a cold face: "One team to this side, one team to that side." He pointed to the left and right sides of the corridor, but not to the corridor.
"Yes, Commander." The guards responded, chasing in the two directions pointed by Wei Qian.
Wei Qian stood in place, glanced left and right at the guards who were far away, and then looked up at the corner of the corridor, but he didn't walk over, only said, "It's almost time to change shifts." With that, he stopped and turned to leave.
Behind him, Shen Yunxi jumped down from the beam, looking at Wei Qian's departing back and frowning slightly, obviously he had already discovered her traces when she hid in this corridor, so he would only appear when the guard was about to search her whereabouts again, and then sent them away, and pretended to punish the guard who took the lead.
It's just that the rumors say that he is upright, but he has helped her again and again.
So what is the reason for this?
"You have a great relationship with Commander Wei?" Xiao Yihan came out of the shadows, looked at the direction of Wei Qian's departure, and asked Shen Yunxi.
Shen Yunxi shook his head and said, "No, I only met yesterday." ”
"Oh." Xiao Yihan nodded in response, but the end note dragged on a little long, obviously, he also had doubts about Wei Qian's help. It's just that I didn't ask.
Shen Yunxi didn't say much more, turned his head to look at him, and said, "Let's go, it's almost too late." As he spoke, he put the poison back in his sleeve and quickly ran towards the direction of the prison with Xiao Yihan.
Passing all the way, he didn't see a single guard, and Shen Yunxi couldn't help but feel a little strange. But after thinking about it, what Wei Qian said in front of the corridor, she understood. Perhaps, he removed the guards for her first, so that she could return to the prison smoothly before the change of guards, so as not to be known by the emperor, and he must be responsible as the commander of the Imperial Forest Army.
Outside the prison, the two stopped, Xiao Yihan turned his head and said to Shen Yunxi: "If it's not necessary, try not to get out of this prison again, it's too dangerous." Fortunately, Commander Wei is here today, and without his help, we would probably be kneeling in front of the imperial study by now. ”
"I know it." Shen Yunxi nodded and said. Immediately, thinking of what Cuihuan said on the palace road, she said again: "Yihan, there is something to trouble you. ”
"If there's anything you need me to help with, just tell me."
"You go and help me find out who Qiaoyu and Shuning have seen and what they have done recently."
"Do you suspect that your incident has something to do with them?" Xiao Yihan frowned.
Shen Yunxi pursed his lips and said, "It's better not to be one of them." "If that's the case, they're too scheming.
She said that she suspected Shuning, because Shuning's identity was already suspicious, so she must have investigated. As for Qiaoyu, this is about the fact that she was invited to Lanxin Garden by Shen Yunyou that day.
She didn't care about Qiaoyu's remarks to her for the time being, just talking about Shen Yunyou's behavior that day was quite incomprehensible.
If it was said that she was to take revenge on her, so she invited Qiaoyu to Lanxin Garden, but Qiaoyu was not hurt at all, and her words flickered between her words, which had to make her suspicious of her.
If one of these two people must be the one who betrayed her, she only hopes that person is Shuning, not Qiaoyu. After all, this Shuning is a latecomer, and it is reasonable to have different intentions for her. But Qiaoyu, she asked herself if she was not thin on her, if she did such a thing to her, then her vision of knowing people was really a little inaccurate.
Listening to the deep meaning in Shen Yunxi's words, Xiao Yihan understood what she was thinking, nodded and said, "I know how to do it." ”
"Thank you, Yihan." Shen Yunxi Yucheng said to Xiao Yihan, not only to thank him for checking Shuning and Qiaoyu for her, but also that he could think of her, and he could find the murderer for her and clear her name.
Against the backdrop of candlelight, the corners of Shen Yunxi's eyes flickered brightly.
"Alright, let's go inside." Xiao Yihan smiled and patted Shen Yunxi's shoulder, and said softly.
"Hmm." Shen Yunxi snorted lightly, turned around and walked into the prison. After taking a few steps, he turned his head and smiled at Xiao Yihan, who also smiled at her when he saw this.
After Shen Yunxi's figure disappeared from sight, Xiao Yihan stood down again, and after making sure that there was nothing abnormal inside, he turned around and opened the prison and disappeared into the twilight.
Inside the prison, there was silence.
Shen Yunxi didn't doubt it at all, she took off the pure white light veil under it, and walked into the prison with heavy steps. Tonight's trip, although there are some dangers in the middle, she finally didn't go in vain.
However, Shen Yunxi was walking down the corner of the stairs when she suddenly felt a fierce murderous aura rushing towards her, she was shocked suddenly, and when she raised her eyes, she saw a black figure sitting in front of the table in the middle of the prison to try the sinner, staring at her at this time, her eyes burning.
And the murderous aura she noticed just now came from him!
