Chapter 73: Drowning in the Palace

Jun Mufan shook it vigorously, "Let it go!" But he didn't shake it off.

Qin Yuan's gaze seemed to be nothing, and fell on the hands of the two people holding each other, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a strange smile.

When Jun Mufan and Mo Hongqing were involved, they turned around so inadvertently, only to see a black fog, flying towards the southwest, instantly hidden among the rows of houses.

Heaven, a demon appeared, he broke free from Mo Hongqing's restraints, cautiously moved his wrist, and pointed to the southwest, "What is there there?" ”

Mo Hongqing's face was even more gloomy, and his tone was extremely cold, "What are you asking for?" ”

Jun Mufan wondered, he could offend him by asking a place, this person is too difficult to get along with now, so he simply doesn't ask, it's not that he won't read it.

"I'm leaving." Jun Mufan didn't know what kind of monster it was and what its purpose was, so he felt that it was better to take a look and feel more steady.

"Stop!" Mo Hongqing seemed to understand where he was going, and dragged him tightly, "At a young age, can you learn well?" ”

He asked a place, why didn't he learn well, but if he didn't use internal force, he really couldn't escape his restraint, and he didn't know when, this guy's kung fu would be as good as he promised.

His Majesty's safety is related to the world, Jun Mufan thought that he should still send him back, so as to save him from getting in the way here, "Okay, okay, don't go."

Mo Hongqing gave up at this time, just out of formality, bowed slightly to Qin Yuan, and the two walked to the other end of the street.

Qin Yuan looked at Jun Mufan's back, his eyes slowly narrowed, and a cold light appeared, this kid was still so close to Mo Hongqing, he had to be removed.

Turning a corner on the street, a few miles back, it is the outer city of the palace, and before entering the city, I saw Guo Bingzheng with the royal guards, coming to greet him.

Jun Mufan took the opportunity to say goodbye, but at this time, I saw Xiao Li's father-in-law, riding a horse, hurrying over, jumping off the horse and kneeling to worship the field, "Your Majesty, that old palace maid, Aunt Ping, drowned." ”

Mo Hongqing's expression froze, "What? ”

Xiao Li's father-in-law said cautiously, "Today, the county lord of Qingwan went to make peace, the palace was busy, and no one paid attention to Aunt Ping. ”

Jun Mufan was also shocked, Aunt Ping died, so an important clue was broken, which made some things even more confusing, but she didn't die sooner or later, but she died at this time, whether she fell into the water, committed suicide, or had another hidden secret, which inevitably makes people suspicious.

He didn't care who the demon was, and directly followed Mo Hongqing to the palace.

The river behind the Chengqian Palace, hidden in the green trees and bushes, because it is outside the palace wall of the Chengqian Palace, so very few people come, the river water is crystal clear, and the fish and shrimp swim in it.

Aunt Naping was salvaged and placed on the shore, because Xiao Lizi had specially instructed her, so the scene maintained the appearance of the crime to the greatest extent.

The palace maids and eunuchs, curious and frightened, all stood and watched from afar, pointing and discussing.

Jun Mufan's eyes were calm and fearless, he walked to the corpse, and squatted down, in the horror of everyone, he pinched Aunt Ping's chin, mouth, nose and eyes, and did not let go of any place, and checked it carefully.

Asked the first little eunuch who saw the corpse, until now, he was still frightened, according to him, because the palace was busy, he took advantage of the time when no one was paying attention, came out to peek, walked here, and saw the water, floating clothes, look carefully, only to find that it was a person, he was so frightened that he was so frightened that he was busy and called someone over.

Jun Mufan nodded, the corpse's skin had been whitened by the blisters, his whole body was swollen, he hallucinated around, a few weeds at the water's edge, and was trampled in the direction of the river.

Looking at Aunt Ping again, the clothes on her chest were a little weird, Jun Mufan reached out and took out a paper bag from it, the powder in it was completely soaked with water, Jun Mufan twisted it with his hand, sniffed it lightly on the end of his nose, and threw it away.

After standing up, he said lightly, "You don't have to panic, and don't use false rumors to cause panic, this Aunt Ping is old, walks unsteadily, and falls into the water, carry it away, and bury it." ”

Until the corpse was carried away, Jun Mufan looked at the weeds by the water, a cold smile hooked up on the corner of his mouth, glanced around again, turned around for a moment, and left the river.

Mo Hongqing was in the main hall, holding a book, flipping through it at random, it was obvious that he was a little absent-minded, as if he had infinite thoughts, in the afternoon Jun Mufan said that the strange girl didn't look down on him, although he behaved as if nothing happened, but when there was no one, his mood was indescribably low.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he returned to his consciousness, and when he saw Jun Mufan coming in, he closed the book and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Jun Mufan sat down in front of him and said with great certainty, "It was he who killed him, and he faked it as a false suicide in fear of crime." ”

Mo Hongqing narrowed his eyes, "Let's hear it." ”

Jun Mufan was confident, put the water-soaked paper bag on the table and said, "That Aunt Ping is afraid of revealing flaws, so she has already sprinkled the only bit of Guan Mutong powder into the river, and now when the limelight is tight, she will not buy new goods, how can she jump into the river with Guan Mutong, the only explanation is that someone made Aunt Ping make a false impression of suicide in fear of crime in order to hide herself, so that the whole thing cannot be investigated." ”

But the other party did a lot of calculations, but he didn't calculate that Jun Mufan was present when Pinggu fell to Guan Mutong, and his move might make a fool of himself and expose himself.

Mo Hongqing faintly realized something, looked at him and said, "What do you mean, the real behind-the-scenes instigator may be in the palace?" ”

Otherwise, he would not have risked killing people in the palace, Aunt Ping was old and had no chance to go out of the palace to do errands, so she couldn't kill her outside the palace, but if the murderer wasn't from the palace and the palace was heavily guarded, he wouldn't be able to do it.

"There are two other possibilities, it may be one, a person who can enter and leave the palace freely, or it may be a martial arts master, killing an insignificant person is still easy." Jun Mufan said.

Mo Hongqing frowned slightly, nodded, he was about to say something, only to hear Guo Bingzheng's report, saying that the Yun Meiren of Shuyu Pavilion was coming, and they had to stop talking.

Mo Hongqing motioned to Guo Bingzheng to let her in, only to hear Huan Peiding, Yun Meiren came over, with a three-point smile on her face, and her bright-eyed and bright teeth added a little color, and blessed her body, "Your Majesty Jin'an." ”

smiled at Jun Mufan again, "Jun Mufan's son is auspicious." ”

Such a courteous corporal, giving him a salute without official or position, it really left a good impression on people, Jun Mufan helped stand up, clasped his hands into fists, and bowed to her, "I've seen Niangniang." ”

Yun Meiren smiled, and then sat down on Mo Hongqing's side, Mo Hongqing saw that Jun Mufan's expression was calm, he didn't know what kind of psychology he had, he reached out to hold Yun Meiren's hand, and asked softly, "Aifei is looking for me, but is there something?" ”“
