Chapter 316: Is It a Blame?

Everyone shook their heads, even saying that they had not heard Adu's last words.

At this moment, half of the woman's head suddenly poked out from behind her, it was a five or six-year-old male doll, he tugged at the corner of the woman's clothes, and said timidly: "I heard it, he said blessed ......."

Before the child could finish speaking, the woman covered his mouth, carried him and ran into the house with him, latching and locking it.

The rest of the people were also extremely frightened, and they dispersed without waiting for Xiling Yue to ask again. For a while, the people watching from the periphery of Adumen ran away, leaving only Xilingyue standing next to the corpse.

A thought flashed through her mind, and she immediately stepped over Addo's corpse, pushed the door and ran into the courtyard. Just now, she didn't look at this courtyard carefully because of Adu's face, but she didn't care much at the moment, and hurriedly kicked open every door to search the whereabouts of the murderer one by one.

Nobody, nobody! Only Adu's bedroom was in a mess, the chest of drawers fell to the ground, the bed was opened, and half of the curtain was torn off, apparently rummaged through.

Could it be that the murderer is here to find something?

But Adu is a eunuch, what can he hide? It must be related to "Preface to King Teng's Pavilion"!

Xi Lingyue thought like this, and hurriedly searched the bedroom, wanting to find clues left by the murderer. She seemed to smell a familiar smell on the futon, but she couldn't remember where she smelled it for a while, and was about to lower her head to get closer, when she suddenly heard a "pop" sound, and a white porcelain vial fell out of her arms, the cork fell off, and the small black pill "banged" and scattered on the bed.

It was Xiao Yi's internal pill for her to treat her shoulder injury.

The smell of this pill was too big, and it immediately covered up the slightest hint of vague smell, no matter how sensitive Rao is Xilingyue's sense of smell was, it was impossible to smell anything else in this pungent medicinal smell. She straightened up in disappointment, sighed, and was about to leave, when she suddenly heard someone outside shouting, "Who ?!" ”

Xiling Yue ran out of the house when she heard the sound, and happened to see a team of bad people and fangding drawing knives into the courtyard, and they were raising their heads and shouting in a certain direction. She followed that line of sight and looked up, only to see a brown-clothed figure leap up from the willow tree in the courtyard, draw an arc in the air, and quickly fall to the roof tiles above her head, not forgetting to cover her face with her sleeve. There was a crisp sound of footsteps on the roof, and the tiles fell one after another, and in the blink of an eye, the figure in brown had disappeared without a trace.

The face of the bad guy at the head changed greatly, and he immediately ordered: "Quickly, close the door of the fang and report to the county lieutenant!" ”

In the evening of this day, Xiling Yue returned to King Fu's Mansion exhausted. The bad guys worked hard all afternoon and didn't find any trace of the murderer, but caught her and asked questions, suspecting her of being an accomplice. She was troubled for two hours, she really couldn't afford to toss, and she didn't want to lose face in the eldest princess's mansion, so she had to ask the coachman to move the rescue soldiers to the Fuwang Mansion.

Steward Fang personally went to pick her up. Jing Zhaoyin kept making amends, and scolded the county magistrate of Chang'an County who ordered her to arrest her, and the county lieutenant slapped the bad guy who was looking away. But Xilingyue didn't have the heart to be angry at all, she kept thinking about who the murderer was.

Thanks to the bad guys and the blessings of the fangs, the neighbors had to tell the scene before Adu's death after interrogation-

Sending Xilingyue away, Adu ran back to the door of his house, opened the courtyard door but was stunned in place, and did not step in.

The next moment, he suddenly snorted and was hit in the forehead by a dart.

He trumpeted bitterly: "King Fu is shameless! Then he was poisoned and died.

The neighbors were very shocked when they saw this, and a few bold people surrounded them, and the timid ones went to report to the official. No one saw the killer the whole time, and they didn't even know if the killer was hiding inside the door and where the darts were fired. It wasn't until the bad guys and the fangmen hurried to find that the murderer was hiding in a tree. The brown shirt was similar in color to the branches of the willow tree, almost blending in with each other, and it was difficult to distinguish.

It happened very suddenly, and there was only a moment before and after, but it made Xilingyue think about it for an afternoon.

Last time in Luoyang Xiangshan Temple, Shopkeeper Liu intermittently shouted the word "Chengxuan" before he died.

And this time, Adu shouted more clearly and loudly.

The murderer killed twice, and he was able to let the deceased blame Li Chengxuan on his own, what kind of means is this? Could it be some kind of deceptive spell? Xilingyue forced herself to calm down and slowly recalled the situation at that time.

Obviously, the murderer has been lurking in Adu's house for a long time. At first, he didn't seem to want to kill, otherwise she and Ado would have died when they first entered the door.

The murderer was more like he came to find something when Adu was not at home, and it was she who sent Adu back in a carriage and asked him to return home half an hour early, disrupting the murderer's plan.

Because of her short stay, Adu didn't show her around the house, so no one noticed that there was a third person in the house. After Adu sent her out, the murderer also planned to take the opportunity to leave, but he didn't want to be bumped into by the returning Adu at the gate, so he had to kill him.

Then the neighbors quickly gathered around, and the murderer did not cover his face, so he hid in the willow tree for fear of being discovered. When she returned, she only thought about going to the house to find the murderer, but she ignored that the willow tree in the courtyard could also hide people.

In the end, because the bad guys and the fangding arrived in time, the murderer saw that there was no way out, so he covered his face and jumped on the roof to escape.

Who is so hand-eyed? Can you blame Li Chengxuan every time?

This person who is good at using poisonous darts can learn about Li Chengxuan's traces in time in Luoyang and sneak into the Xiangshan Temple where he stays; Now he learned for the first time that Adu was out of slavery and found the residence arranged for him by Li Chengxuan......

If it weren't for the thieves in the Fuwang Mansion, there would be only one possibility - the mastermind behind the scenes came from Daming Palace.

Xiling Yue secretly analyzed, and for some reason, what Li Chengxuan had said to Adu flashed in his mind - "The pardon of official slaves and their separation from slavery must be approved by the Son of Heaven." ”

Suddenly, Xiling Yue broke out in a cold sweat! She didn't dare to think about it anymore, and immediately got up to find Li Chengxuan. She first went to the courtyard where he was sleeping, and the next person said that the prince was having dinner; She went to the dining room to look for it, and said that he went to the study after dinner.

When Xilingyue found the study again, she saw that it was dark inside

, and Steward Fang stood at the door to stop her: "Lady forgive your sins, the prince just went out." ”

"Out? When? ”

"It's just Fangcai, after dinner."

Xilingyue didn't believe it at all: "It's all this hour, will the prince still go out?" ”

Steward Fang didn't answer again.

Xiling Yue was really anxious: "Uncle Fang, can the prince know about the fact that I was detained by bad people today?" ”

"I know, the old slave only went to pick you up because of the prince's orders." Steward Fang was respectful.

"Then Adu shouted the title of the prince before he died, did he know?"

"I know, too."

"Then he still won't see me?!" Xiling Yue was unbelievable.

Steward Fang still stopped her wholeheartedly: "The prince went out precisely because of this matter." ”

Xiling Yue raised her eyes and looked at the study, and when she saw that it was dark inside, she couldn't help but ask angrily: "Since the prince is not in the mansion, why did Uncle Fang stop me?" Shall I go to the study and have a look? ”

"The prince has instructed that outsiders in the study room are exempted, and I ask you to forgive your sins." Steward Fang's face did not change color, and he did not give an inch.

Xiling Yue stomped her feet in anger, didn't say anything more, and turned to leave.

Early the next morning, even Guo Zhongting heard about Adu, and hurriedly came to Fuwangfu to find Li Chengxuan. When Steward Fang saw that it was him, he didn't stop him and invited him to the study.

Early in the morning, Li Chengxuan actually sat in the study and played chess with himself? !
