Chapter XXXIV Investigation

"The lone king is in the palace, and there are many people around him, so he naturally can't go there in person. But in this palace, although the lone king is the head of the world, there are very few people who can use it, and the lone king has no choice out of you. ”

After Lu Jue heard Feng Yewu's words, his heart suddenly warmed.

I have always been deeply buried in Feng Yewu's thoughts.

After all, the disparity in identity is a fact that cannot be changed.

Now Feng Yewu opened his mouth to ask him, not to mention investigating the cause of death, even if he was a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, he would never give up.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the slave must go all out in this matter."

Lu Jue hurriedly bowed and agreed.

Subsequently, Lu Jue and Feng Yewu discussed until midnight.

Outside the palace, the moon is shining brightly, and at curfew time, all the doors on the street are closed.

Only the people who beat the watch, dragging a long voice to report the time very casually.

A figure quickly crossed the buildings of Kyoto.

Under a night suit, it was Lu Jue.

After receiving Feng Yewu's advice, Lu Jue changed into a night robe and hurriedly left the palace.

And the Prime Minister's Mansion is naturally the first place he wants to go.

This time, Feng Yewu also told in every possible way, after all, this matter is extremely important.

If Lu Jue missed, Feng Yewu would definitely not be able to save him.

Otherwise, it will definitely fall into the mouths of hundreds of officials.

And the murderer behind the scenes on the other side, if it is really the king of Pingyi, then the other party will definitely bite it to the death.

Lu Jue broke into the Prime Minister's Mansion like this, and once he was discovered, he would inevitably be recognized as an assassin.

And the death of Xiangguo's daughter is likely to be pushed directly on him.

Lu Jue was agile, lightly touched the ground under his feet, and after a few columns, he flew over the high wall and entered the Xiangwang Mansion.

According to Feng Yewu's analysis, the daughter of Xiangguo just died tonight.

So the body is still parked in the Xiangguo Mansion, according to Kyoto customs.

The white-haired person sent the black-haired person to the coffin for three days.

But because the elderly are still there, the deceased cannot be placed in the main hall, but can only be placed in the side courtyard.

And at this moment, Lu Jue is in the partial courtyard where the daughter of Xiangguo lived before.

After Lu Jue took a brief look at it, he found a coffin.

After some observation, no guards were found.

Come to think of it, who would have any thoughts about a dead man.

Lu Jue approached the door of the boudoir in front of Xiangguo's daughter, and only saw two sleepy maids.

Simply bypassing the two, Lu Jue climbed in through a window.

In the boudoir, the body of the daughter of Xiangguo was quietly placed in a coffin, because it was not yet the day of the funeral.

This coffin has not been closed, which is very convenient for Lu Jue to see.

Lu Jue looked at the daughter of Xiangguo who was lying calmly in front of him, as if she was asleep, so she had to bow a few times first.

said that he didn't mean to be offended, and then hurriedly checked.

"Angina?"

Lu Jue looked at the person lying quietly in front of him, his eyes attracted by the other party's look.

The brow furrowed, apparently due to the pain.

It's just that the lips are purple and the gums are dark red. This is not something that can be caused by a disease.

Apparently caused by poisoning.

His eyes moved, and Lu Jue saw the daughter of Xiangguo holding her chest tightly with her hands.

If you look at it from the perspective of ordinary people, you will naturally think that it is caused by chest pain.

Lu Jue raised his hand and wanted to move the arm of the daughter of Xiangguo, but he found that it was extremely stiff.

The stiffness of the corpse indicates that the force was gathered before death.

It's just that...... The stiff arm deepened the doubts in Lu Jue's heart.

If it is really caused by illness, then after the heartache, the instinct should be soothed.

Then the muscles of the whole body relaxed, but the daughter of Xiangguo in front of her covered her chest until she died.

Apparently because of the poisoning, which caused chest pain, the deceased gritted his teeth because the pain was unbearable.

It causes the gums to be dark red, and when the deceased is in pain, the poison in the body spreads throughout the body.

So the arms will also be so stiff.

"In that case......

Lu Jue took out a silver needle from his arms, and then aimed it at the throat of Xiangguo's daughter and slowly stabbed it into it.

After a while, Lu Jue pulled it out.

Just look at the silver needle, it is the same as before, and there is no sign of poisoning and blackening.

"It seems that this is what many coroners say, not poisoning, but heartache."

Lu Jue naturally wouldn't stop because of this thorn.

After all, if the reason could be found out in this way, then Feng Yewu would have known the truth a long time ago.

Lu Jue didn't feel that he moved his gaze to the chest that Xiangguo's daughter was protecting with her hands.

Looking at the posture of the daughter of Xiangguo, she couldn't help but ask softly:

"If your heart hurts, why do you cover your chest?"

The words fell lightly, and Lu Jue's eyes changed, as if he had found the evidence.

Just look at Lu Jue raising his hand, and a needle is about to pierce the chest of Xiangguo's daughter.

That position is the key position that the daughter of Xiangguo protects with her hands.

Just as Lu Jue's silver needle fell, he suddenly heard a strong force behind him.

"Ding, ding, ding!"

The sound of three metal entering the wood fell on the coffin that Lu Jue was lying on.

Fortunately, Lu Jue had already noticed it, and this hand dodged.

I only saw that outside the boudoir of Xiangguo's daughter, a figure flashed by.

Lu Jue came to the coffin, put away the hidden weapon inserted in the coffin, and hurriedly chased out.

And the man in the shadows is clearly gone.

Lu Jue returned to the boudoir, but found that his silver needle was gone.

"Someone? Someone broke into the lady's boudoir! ”

Just as Lu Jue hesitated to continue checking, he heard a sudden crowd in Xiangguo's mansion.

Obviously, it was the person who disturbed the subordinates of the Xiangguo Mansion and led everyone here.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Jue hurriedly fled.

After all, if he is really caught, I am afraid that he has not found any clues, and Lu Jue's own life will be involved.

After some tossing, the sky gradually brightened.

Lu Jue could only return to the palace with the secret weapon first.

At this moment, outside Feng Yewu's dormitory, Mingde's father-in-law had already gotten up, walked outside the door, and asked about Feng Yewu's early dynasty.

"Last night, after a fuss in Xiangguo, the lonely king occasionally felt a cold, and he retreated early today."

In the dormitory, Feng Yewu sat quietly on a chair, looking very anxious.

Hearing Mingde's father-in-law's inquiry, he just sent it over in a hurry.

Lu Jue returned overnight, which made Feng Yewu's heart extremely uneasy.

As time passed, Feng Yewu was also worried for a whole night.

The early dynasty has long run out of energy.

"No!"

After a while, hearing that Mingde's father-in-law was leaving, Feng Yewu stood up eagerly and confirmed it to the cold moon on the side.

"Lu Jue hasn't come back yet?"

Han Yue looked at the back window of the dormitory, but there was no one in the room, so she had to helplessly look at Feng Yewu, who was full of eagerness, and shook her head.

After Lu Jue left, Feng Yewu became worried, and even regretted letting Lu Jue do it.
