CHAPTER XIII. 3

Not long after, there was a faint labor pain in Yuzhu's abdomen, and blood gradually oozed from his trousers.

Seeing this, Shangguan Beitang couldn't help but feel apprehensive in his heart, Mu Nanfeng patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "It's nothing, the prince doesn't have to worry, you and I are waiting outside the house, and leave everything to Xiaoru to take care of." ”

Shangguan Beitang stood up from the side of the bed at this time, looked at Yuzhu distressedly, and instructed Xiaoru: "You must take care of the princess on the side, I will ask Mama Liu to come over to help you." ”

was about to walk out, but Yuzhu grabbed him frantically and bit him the arm.

Although she is nervous and suffers from madness, after all, as a mother, she still understands that her child is gone.

The person who gave her medicine was Shangguan Beitang. subconsciously, I didn't believe that Xiao Yiqing made her so desolate. Therefore, she determined that the person who harmed her was Shangguan Beitang.

Even if she was crazy, she still remembered the hatred.

Shangguan Beitang was bitten violently, and he roared in pain and gasped in a low voice: "Hiss." ”

Seeing that Shangguan Beitang's arm was bitten out of blood, Mu Nanfeng hurriedly stepped forward to point at Yuzhu's acupoint and taught her not to move, only then did he pry her mouth open, and Shangguan Beitang pulled out his arm.

When I looked at it, there were purple-red tooth marks, and some marks had been bitten off, and bright red blood flowed.

Xiaoru was so frightened that she immediately cried, took out her handkerchief with a crying voice, and said, "Slave, bandage the prince." ”

Shangguan Beitang glared at her, dodged her hand and said, "What are you crying about?" Don't worry about me, take care of the side princess. ”

Out of Yuzhu's door, I happened to meet Mama Liu who was in a hurry, Shangguan Beitang hurriedly grabbed Mama's hand and said, "Mama, Yuzhu will be handed over to you." ”

"Don't worry, the old slave will definitely protect the Yuzhu girl."

Looking at Mama Liu's figure, Shangguan Beitang turned his face sideways, wiped away the tears that slipped from the corners of his eyes, and muttered, "After all, I still hurt her." ”

Mu Nanfeng looked at him, shook his head and said, "Let's go, I'll give you some medicine." ”

Shangguan Beitang didn't say a word, and the two walked all the way.

After a long time, Mu Nanfeng asked again: "How do you plan to solve this matter?" ”

Shangguan Beitang was silent for a moment again, and said, "An Hai has already gone to arrest the people of the Huo family, but I am afraid that every move of my Beixuan Mansion is already under the control of others. This is already a surprise, and I am afraid that I can't hide it if I want to. ”

Mu Nanfeng nodded approvingly: "Yes, so we have to think about it in the long run." ”

"Now people know that something has happened to me in the Beixuan Palace, but they don't know what happened? Uncle Qin, from the accident of the princess to the present, has anyone been out of the palace? Shangguan Beitang asked Uncle Qin, who was accompanying him all the way.

"Back to the prince's words, except for the people brought by An Hai to arrest the Huo family, no one has ever left the palace, and the old slave has ordered all the family members to guard all the doors to prevent the news from leaking." Qin Bo said.

"Well, with you, this king can save a lot of worry. What about Magnolia? ”

"The old slave has ordered her to be locked up in the firewood room."

Shangguan Beitang glanced at Uncle Qin approvingly and said, "That's very good. ”

Mu Nanfeng said: "Since this is the case, then we will ask Yulan to talk to the person behind him, I am afraid that at this moment, that person also wants to know the outcome of the matter."

Shangguan Beitang shook his head: "No, no, although An Hai has already gone to arrest the people of the Huo family, but it is exactly like this, but it also reveals that we already know who did this." Now this medicine was given by Huo Jiaban, and the matter was done by Yulan, and it has nothing to do with him, so he may not come to see Yulan. Maybe he will frame Magnolia for indiscriminate climbing. ”

"So, what should I do?" Qin Bo also asked eagerly.

"The only way to do this now is to take care of Yuzhu, although we arrested Huo Jiaban and Yulan, but that person still doesn't know what Yuzhu's situation is, and he is very anxious to know the result at this moment."

"As long as we don't leak out the situation of Yuzhu, that person will definitely come to find out. When the time comes, he can catch the turtle in the urn, and he can't recognize it if he wants to. Shangguan Beitang said and lowered his head.

It's just that this method still involves Yuzhu after all, and he is also stunned when he thinks about it.

"Don't worry, the old slave will ask someone to guard this yard tightly, and not a single fly will let it fly out." Qin Bo arched his hand and said.

"In that case, you can arrange to do it!" Shangguan Beitang commanded.

"Yes." Uncle Qin left in response.

At midnight that day, An Hai came back and said that not long after Huo Jiaban left the capital, he suddenly encountered robbers in a forest on the outskirts of Beijing and was killed, and none of the 63 people in the class survived.

When Shangguan Beitang heard this, he said: "Where is this encounter with robbers, it is clearly murder and extermination!" ”

"Yes, my subordinates have checked the situation at the scene, and everyone's belongings have not been taken. It's just that the murderer has a dead hand, and the wound is killed by a knife, and he doesn't intend to leave a living mouth. An Hai reported.

"What else can be found on the scene?" Mu Nanfeng asked again.

"Yes, we found this on Master Huoban." Anhai said as he pulled out two vials from his bosom.

One is celadon and the other is white porcelain. He handed the bottle to Mu Nanfeng.

Mu Nanfeng carefully opened the white porcelain bottle, put it to his nose and sniffed it. opened the celadon again and said: "Yes, these two flavors are Jiumu agarwood and no void." ”

Shangguan Beitang also stepped forward and asked An Hai, "This bottle is on Huo Jinlin?" ”

"Yes."

"It's all too obvious. What motive did he have to kill Yuzhu? ”

"Lord Wang, his subordinates also found this on him." An Hai said as he handed a piece of white cloth to Shangguan Beitang.

Shangguan Beitang took it, opened the white cloth and saw that it was a bloody letter:

I am Huo Jinlin, the fifth-generation descendant of the Huo family class, and I swear to the sky and the moon today that I will make the Beixuan Mansion unpeaceful in my lifetime.

In the past, my father took me into Beijing to celebrate the birthday of the Empress Dowager, and my father sang on stage, which won the applause of the house, and the Empress Dowager was overjoyed and rewarded the Huo family class. also wants to stay in the Huo family class to wait in the palace. Exclusively for royal performances.

But the king of Beixuan made a hindrance and admonished the empress dowager: "The reason why Huo Jiaban has such a deep singing skill is that he has this ability because he has walked the rivers and lakes to gather various singing methods over the years. If they are left in the palace, they will be like birds in a cage, and they will no longer be allowed to spread their wings and fly high, and if the ancestors want to hear such graceful singing skills in the future, I am afraid it will be very difficult. ”

At this point, my Huo Jiaban has been adrift again, wandering the rivers and lakes. This caused my father to be unwilling, and accidentally broke his waist bone when he sang on stage, and he was in pain, and he took medicine every day, so that he broke his throat and could not sing on stage again in this life.

I, Huo Jinlin, swear here, I will take revenge in this life and give my father justice.

On the sixth day of the ninth month of the twenty-eighth year of Rongzong

Shangguan Beitang couldn't help but be shocked by this matter after reading this blood letter, he had never thought that his words would cause such a big hidden danger.

Mu Nanfeng took the blood book from his hand and looked at it, and said: "I'm afraid this matter is just an excuse, the real murderer behind the scenes is using Huo Jinlin's revenge." ”

"Although Huo Jinlin has a heart of revenge, if there is no one behind him, he will be a flat-headed commoner, but he may not dare to go to the Beixuan Palace to make trouble." An Hai said.

"Yes, and the blood book is hidden on him, which is too obvious." Mu Nanfeng continued.

"When the king saw that the master of the Huo class was talented and his singing skills were extremely deep, he cherished his talents, thinking that if he went to the palace only for the royal family, he would no longer be able to study his homework wholeheartedly. This made him go away from the sky, and he didn't want to feel resentment in his heart. Shangguan Beitang said.

"Now someone must have taken advantage of his revenge, and now we can only seek justice for Yuzhu by catching the person behind the scenes." Mu Nanfeng said again.

"Yes, Anhai, just do what this king has just arranged, loose on the outside and tight on the inside, remember, you can only let people in, and you must not let them escape." Shangguan Beitang admonished.

"The subordinates understand. The subordinates will do it. "An Haidao.

The Beixuan Palace's mansion has been messy for two or three days, but this chaos seems to be full of order.

In the past few days, there have also been rumors of the Beixuan Palace's scandal in the capital, and some say that the side concubine is bedridden, and I am afraid that time is running out. Some people also say that the side princess Jiren has her own natural appearance, and she has been out of the disease and has no major problems.

These nonsense rumors reached the ears of the murderer, and he naturally didn't know which one was true and which one was false.

In order to determine whether he had succeeded or not, he made a bold decision to go to the Beixuan Palace.

It was a dead night, he wore a night suit, dressed up in the same color as this dark night, and took advantage of the dead of night to sneak into the Beixuan Palace.

He had walked through this courtyard many times, and he knew when the family changed shifts and which corner was not guarded. So he easily touched the courtyard of Yuzhu.

He was hiding in a hidden corner of the courtyard. Silently watching everything in the room.

Under the pale yellow oil lamp, a slender figure was sitting in front of the dresser, removing the makeup that had been applied for a day.

Her demeanor was light and moving, her expression was melancholy and slightly melancholy, and her long eyelashes flickered in the shadows illuminated by the light.

I heard a soft sigh from the man in the room: "Hey. Xiao Yiqing's heart tugged, and he almost pulled out of the hidden corner.

But I heard a maid say, "Niangniang, what's wrong?" ”

The figure shook his head and said, "It's okay. ”

The maid said again: "Then the slave maid serves the mother and rests!" ”

Xiao Yiqing looked at the figure of another maid in the room, stood behind the dresser, and wanted to help Yuzhu remove the hair ornament on his head.

He couldn't help frowning slightly. Thinking that this maid is very vulgar at all times, even her figure is so vulgar. In vain ruined the sight of the beauty in this shadow.

After removing the makeup, the maid said again: "Niangniang, rest!" The slave went to blow out the lamp. ”

The shadow didn't listen to her, but stood up gently, slowly stood in front of the window, and whispered: "The belt gradually widens and does not regret it, and it makes people haggard for Yixiao." ”

When Xiao Yiqing heard this, she didn't feel melancholy in her heart, she missed me so much, and she hated that I asked her to wait so long.

He said secretly in his heart: "Yuzhu, don't worry, I will take you away tonight and take you away from this oppressive and painful palace." From then on, you and I are high and unrestrained. ”
