Chapter 959: The Temptation of Frustration
Time was pressing, but Wen Qingzhu still decided to take a look.
After all, Horai has done so many things for her, and now she is under house arrest in the palace.
It's a bit too early to reveal your identity so quickly.
The entrance to the royal palace.
Wen Qingzhu rode a horse, looked at the guards in front of him and said, "I want to see the second prince." ”
The guard turned his head and sent someone in, and then he came back and said to Wen Qingzhu: "Wait a minute, your lordship, someone will come out to pick up your lord when it is confirmed." ”
Wen Qingzhu knew that Heavenly Eagle City was now heavily guarded.
Before the matter of the second patriarch, the second prince was already wary of her.
Now I'm afraid I'm doubting myself.
After a while, it was actually Fuqu himself who came out to greet her.
The guards saluted one after another, and Wen Qingzhu followed suit: "I've seen General Fuqu." ”
Fuqu rode a horse and stopped at the door, staring at Wen Qingzhu without moving: "Where did the adults go last night?" ”
Wen Qingzhu replied quietly: "I went to do some things outside the city." ”
"Oh? Out of town? The adults must have known about last night's events. Frustrated's eyes were rather unkind.
Wen Qingzhu understood that Fuqu was already suspicious of her.
But she was also prepared: "I'm really sorry, I only found out about last night's incident when I entered the city just now." ”
Frustrated Qu looked at her for a long time, and finally let her in.
Wen Qingzhu rode behind Fu Qu, and when he passed the entrance of the main hall, on the other road, Danton was walking towards this side with Yiremu.
She saw Denton at first sight, and knew that now was the time to test her acting skills, so she immediately straightened her back and looked solemn.
Soon, Denton also discovered Wen Qingzhu.
At a glance, he felt that Wen Qingzhu's silhouette was extremely familiar, but the appearance of the person in front of him was different.
"Who is she?" Denton immediately asked Irem.
Looking at Wen Qingzhu's slowly moving back, Yi Remu's expression was very complicated: "She is Lord Xiaoshui, and He Lai is now the master." ”
"She's a little water lady?" Danton walked to the intersection, stopped, and looked straight at Wen Qingzhu's back.
No, it's still different.
The body shape is a bit similar, but the temperament is completely different.
Yiremu looked at her sideways: "Adults know Xiaoshui-sama?" ”
Denton shook his head, pointed to the front and said, "Let's go, don't let the second prince wait for a long time." ”
Irem nodded, and continued with her.
When he arrived at the second prince's hall, he saw that there were wolf skins decorated in the house.
Denton suddenly remembered, yes!
The wolf skins he bought at the beginning were bought by this little water adult!
She should have a very powerful guard by her side!
Denton stopped abruptly, and Iremu reminded him, "My lord, the prince is waiting for you inside. ”
He took a deep breath and walked in.
I have a new judgment on this little water lord in my heart, not to mention anything else, her strength is more powerful than everyone thinks.
In front of a small courtyard.
Wen Qingzhu dismounted with Fuqu, and saw Fuqu take a waist card and show it to the guards with full helmets at the door.
Looking at these two guards in full helmets, Wen Qingzhu suddenly remembered that there were also guards wearing such a set of armor around the left column before.
She looked up at the courtyard, and the walls were covered with sharp barbs, all made of iron.
Obviously, it's not the same here.
Wen Qingzhu followed Fuqu in, and walked all the way, but he didn't meet anyone.
They came to a house on the east side.
Frustrated Qu pushed open the door, pointed inside, and said, "Horay, is inside." ”
Wen Qingzhu walked in without hesitation, and sure enough, he saw He Lai lying on the bed.
"Your Excellency!" When Horay saw this, he immediately sat up.
Wen Qingzhu hurriedly went over and pressed him down, while looking at the injuries on his body.
Except for the right leg, the rest of the area was wrapped in gauze.
In particular, Horay's right hand seemed to be hanging again.
Feitian said before that Horay's injuries were not particularly serious.
But she saw with her own eyes that it was a different story.
Wen Qingzhu apologized solemnly: "I knew that I shouldn't have let you visit the second patriarch!" I'm sorry. ”
The frustrated Qu behind him stared at her expression, and his heart began to shake again.
Could it be that the death of the second patriarch has nothing to do with this little water lord?
Anyway, yesterday, he did send someone to search Xiaoshui's original residence, as well as He Lai's residence, and even quickly checked the city, but found no trace of her.
That means she's not in the city.
Seeing that Fu Qu was here, He Lai reacted quickly, and hurriedly shook his head and said: "Don't worry, my lord, you are weak now, you don't have enough manpower, and you have to run many things yourself, so it's my honor for me to mention that adults do things."
Fortunately, the adult went outside the city, and I went to visit the adult, otherwise, if something happened to the adult, I would really feel uneasy. ”
"You ......" Wen Qingzhu was still full of remorse.
Coarse cloth looked at Horay's injuries, and it seemed that he would need at least a month of recuperation.
Wen Qingzhu checked his pulse, listened carefully, and confirmed that it was only serious and actually okay, so he was a little relieved.
"Lord Xiaoshui knows how to heal?" Frustrated Qu behind him stepped forward.
Wen Qingzhu stood up: "Yes, when I came to Heavenly Eagle City, Lord Corpse Chaser knew, and now the Second Prince and Lord Qiu Lin all know it, doesn't General Fuqu know?" "Love me eBook
Without waiting for him to reply, Wen Qingzhu said to himself again: "Oh-yes, that's right! I forgot that Frustration had been out of town before! ”
Fuqu closed his eyes, held back a trace of restlessness in his heart, and said patiently: "In that case, can I ask you to help take a look at Xiao Wuzhu's corpse?" ”
"Xiao Wu Zhu is dead!" Wen Qingzhu's eyes widened, deliberately revealing shock.
Frustrated Qu nodded, without any nonsense, turned around and left.
Wen Qingzhu told He Lai to rest well, and she waited to come back.
Following the frustration out, they left the solemn courtyard and went to the Wuzhu Palace.
Unlike before, the Wuzhu Hall is now scattered.
The frustration passed, and there was not even anyone to greet him.
When they got into the house, someone came up to them and whispered a few questions.
Frustrated Qu was a little impatient and waved them all down.
He pointed to the human-shaped wooden box in front of him and said, "This is Lord Wu Zhu's eldest disciple, who also died in the explosion last night, but it's very strange, there is a knife mark on his body, can I trouble you to take a look?" ”
Wen Qingzhu smiled and asked, "Can I refuse?" I have always been at odds with the people of the Wuzhu Temple. ”
She squinted at the people lying inside, "Especially him." ”
Although the face of the lying person was blown up for a long time, Wen Qingzhu could still recognize it at a glance.
This person is the same person who tried to forcibly arrest her last time.
Fuqu took a deep breath: "Lord Xiaoshui, I know you have a holiday with him, but now is a special time, especially when He Lai is still under suspicion, I suggest you should take a look at this corpse." ”
"Why is Horai suspected? Didn't he want to save the second patriarch? And if it weren't for him, the left column would have been seriously injured now! ”
Wen Qingzhu was a little displeased, and his expression was not so good when he looked at Frustrated Qu.
Frustration Qu hooked the corners of his mouth and said: "Lord Xiaoshui, now that He Lai is injured and under house arrest, and the powerful guard beside you is not there, do you think you have a reason to refuse?" ”
"You-" Wen Qingzhu clenched his palms angrily and threw himself into acting.
The two looked at each other for a moment, but Wen Qingzhu still compromised: "Okay, I'll take a look." ”
She turned her head to the wooden box and took a closer look at the wounds on the eldest disciple's face, neck, hands, and feet.
After reading it, Wen Qingzhu turned his head to the frustrated channel: "His face and neck were injured by explosives, there are inconspicuous scratches on his hands, and there are scars for at least seven days, which seem to be caused by sharp weapons." ”
She looked at the eldest disciple's right foot: "The other is his right foot, the bones have traces of twisting, according to my judgment, it was before he was injured, so it must have been chaotic at the time." ”
Frustration continued: "Look at the knife marks on the back of his waist and abdomen. ”
Wen Qingzhu refused without hesitation: "I'm sorry, I don't watch it." ”
"Adults really don't look at it? I know that Ho Lai is basically fine, but the second prince wants to put the blame on him, are you sure you won't help? ”
"You threaten me?!" Wen Qingzhu shrugged his shoulders angrily.
Frustrated Qu smiled: "It's not a threat, it's just that the lord of the base is not ordinary to Ho Lai, if we can keep Ho Lai and let the lord use us, I am still very happy." ”
Wen Qingzhu sneered twice and did not reply.
But he finally got a little bottom, at least he revealed his purpose.
After thinking about it for a long time, Wen Qingzhu could only reluctantly agree.
While checking the eldest disciple's injury, she said to her in frustration: "Lord Xiaoshui is really special, are you really the one who follows the eldest prince?" ”
Wen Qingzhu remained silent, facing the suspicion and temptation of Fuqu, only silence would not have any flaws.
Take a closer look at the knife marks on the back of the man's waist.
Wen Qingzhu twisted his eyebrows, isn't this the injury caused by the scimitar commonly used by the Huns?
He remembered that Holai did not use a scimitar, and that the people of the Wuzhu Hall generally did not carry knives.
Isn't that ...... Left column!
Wen Qingzhu felt that something was wrong, and Frustrated Qu ruled out the option that He Lai was the pusher, but detained him again.
There must be something else they haven't investigated.
She rechecked it, and finally saw a faint black in the deepest part of the wound.
It doesn't look like a scab.
Wen Qingzhu turned his head and took out a silver needle and pricked it in the middle.
When I took it out, the silver needle turned black.
"Poisoned." Wen Qingzhu looked at the silver needle in front of him, and he was almost certain that it was He Lai's hands and feet.
She looked down at the wound, how could the outer layer of toxin look like it had been removed?
Frustrated Qu walked over and looked at the silver needle in her hand: "It seems that you and I suspect in the same direction, Xiao Wuzhu was poisoned." ”
"The general also knows that he was poisoned?" Wen Qingzhu turned his head to look at him, "You know, why did you let me come over?" ”
Fuqu laughed: "I just want to see what the adult is capable of, and now it seems that the adult's ability is at least better than the medical officer in the palace." ”
Wen Qingzhu laughed angrily, this frustration is not only very good at leading troops to fight, but also very good at seeing and understanding people!
After being silent for a while, Fuqu walked to the other side of the wooden box and looked at the person inside: "At present, the information I have received from my side is that the left column is the most suspicious, but no poison was found on his scimitar, which is a strange point." ”
"How long did it take for you to get there?" Wen Qingzhu felt that if He Lai wanted to do it, it would be impossible not to be prepared.
Now that they are at an impasse, it must be the people on the left side who have replaced the real murder weapon.
The left column has a good relationship with the Asan tribe, and it may be the hands of the Asan tribe.
But the left column is clearly the person of the second prince, and it may also be the second prince.
But now that Fuqu doesn't know the truth, could it be that the second prince deliberately set up a situation to let her come back?
Wen Qingzhu looked at Frustrated Qu suspiciously, she didn't rule out now that the second prince wanted to see her ability.
"Your Excellency, you can wonder if someone else will replace the murder weapon on the left column, is it from our side, or someone from the Asan tribe?"
Frustrated Qu could see at a glance what she was thinking.
Wen Qingzhu was engrossed, it seemed that she couldn't be distracted, and she was more depressed than she thought.
So she nodded, "That's right." ”
Frustrated Horse still smiled at the same time: "Of course it's not us!" ”
