"Who?" King Shun asked. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Who does Your Highness think it is?" Chu Shenxia asked rhetorically.

King Shun lowered his head and thought for a while, and suddenly thought of a person's name, but he felt that it was unlikely, so he looked at him with some hesitation, but he didn't expect Chu Shenxia to nod slowly.

King Shun was surprised and said, "I haven't said who it is. ”

"There is only one person who can make His Highness think of but dare not confirm it, and there is only one King Qing at present, and I am afraid that I really can't think of a second person besides him." Chu Shenxia's eyes twitched slightly.

While speaking, there was a sudden movement behind them, and the two of them turned around to look together, only to see a black shadow flashing, followed by Ruoyu, who disappeared in front of the two in the blink of an eye.

King Shun jumped and immediately chased after him, Chu Shenxia followed closely behind, and the two chased straight to the corner and saw no one.

King Shun patted the wall with some annoyance, and Chu Shenxia quipped: "Ruoyu's light skills are not under the two of us, it is really hidden." ”

King Shun glanced at the wall angrily, and was about to jump out of the wall as soon as he jumped over, but his arm was suddenly firmly grabbed by Chu Shenxia, and he suddenly returned to the ground.

Chu Shenxia explained unhurriedly: "Your Highness is too late to chase them out now, we don't even know which direction they went, Ruoyu martial arts are on par with me, no accident, I should be able to bring that person back, Your Highness doesn't need to worry." It's time for the people from the Criminal Department to arrive, so let's go to the courtyard first. ”

King Shun turned his face slightly to the side, hid the thick anger in his eyes, put his hands behind his back, and walked towards the courtyard without saying a word.

He didn't know how many times he had told her, even though she was a killer with strong martial arts, in his eyes she was just a woman, and she shouldn't be doing the murderous thing, why didn't she understand?

Chen Que, the head of the Si Punishment Temple, turned over the corpse roughly, then motioned to the people on the side to carry the corpse out, raised his eyes and said respectfully to King Shun: "Your Highness, since this murder happened in the Mansion of the Xiaoqi General, I wonder if you can send someone to search the mansion?" ”

King Shun glanced at him deeply, and said lightly: "Since it happened in the General's Mansion, naturally it is not up to me to have the final say, did the chief secretary ask the wrong person?" ”

Chen Que suddenly realized, faced Chu Shenxia, and asked condescendingly, "I don't know..."

"Whatever you want." Chu Shenxia evoked a smile, but it made people look at the temperature, Chen Que was stunned, but he couldn't say anything, so he had to beckon his subordinates to go in.

"It's just that the east wing where my mother is located still asks the master not to disturb." Chu Shenxia bowed slightly.

Chen Que quickly sneered, as if he had caught some weakness of this young general, and he couldn't refuse: "No, according to my years of experience in handling cases, it is possible for the murderer to hide anywhere in the mansion, especially if he takes advantage of the chaos to escape to the east wing where you are not allowed to be disturbed." ”

Chu Shenxia frowned slightly, King Shun had already seen all this, and said in front of him: "I just saw the murderer jump over the wall and leave, he won't be in the mansion, if the chief secretary is really not at ease, search elsewhere more carefully, but Mrs. Chu has already slept, so it is really not appropriate to disturb." ”

Because of the politeness of King Shun's words, Chen Que didn't realize that it was wrong, and insisted on saying: "This is absolutely not good, I can't let go of any suspicious place, the murderer may be two people, and the murderer who escaped may just be eye-catching, and the real murderer is very likely to remain in the mansion." I checked it out for the sake of Mrs. Chu, lest the murderer cruelly hurt Mrs. Chu. ”

Chu Shenxia glanced at him, saw that there was a faint smug look on his face, and thought that he was unique and did not participate in the party struggle, so he naturally would not listen to King Shun's words. Chen Que handled the case fairly, so he served as the chief secretary in the year when the emperor ascended the throne, and it is not deliberately difficult, but it is just more serious.

Thinking of this, he made a gesture of please: "Since the chief boss insists on this, then I won't stop it, please." ”

King Shun was a little embarrassed, he agreed so easily, but it seemed that his words were extremely capricious.

At first, the three of them walked without saying a word, but after a while, Chen Que couldn't help but speak: "General Chu became a cavalry general at a young age, so he must have many outstanding points." ”

Chu Shenxia humbly said: "Don't dare, it's just luck." ”

Chen Que snorted coldly and said slowly: "Luck? Some people have been unlucky all their lives and blame bad luck for their stupidity and laziness, and some people have succeeded with their intelligence and strategy, but they also blame luck and say that they are lucky. I only believe in necessity, never in luck. ”

King Shun couldn't help but yawn, as soon as the old lord said the reason, it was like the water of the Yangtze River gushing endlessly, every time he caught a minister in the court that did not match his intentions, he had to argue for a long time, so that later, the ministers were afraid of him, he did not open his mouth and admitted defeat: "It's me who is wrong, it's me who is wrong, everything you say is right." ”

However, Chu Shenxia didn't know, and immediately replied: "Youxiucai studied hard in a cold house for three years, and finally rushed to the exam with the silver with confidence, escaped from the robbers' den, ate tree roots and slept in the cold weather, and finally arrived in Jincheng after a lot of hard work, only three hours away, the scientific examination was over, and he died on the spot." He was just a little bit out of luck. ”

A glimmer of light flashed in Chen Que's eyes, with some smiles in the corners of his eyes, and he said quickly: "Then you can only blame him for not being smart enough, what if you don't have money to go to Jincheng?" He can use all means, even if it is to steal and borrow, there is always a way to get to Jincheng, the world thinks that it has something to do with luck, but in fact, it is not, but he is not smart enough. ”

"Really? I don't think so, he was able to escape from the robber's den, which means that although he has no force to resist the robbers, he has enough intelligence and courage, and eating tree roots shows that he is very determined..."Chu Shenxia didn't seem to feel bored, and even retorted with interest.

King Shun shook his head helplessly, and with a quick step, he left the two of them far behind, and because he was in a hurry to walk, he didn't pay attention to his feet, and he tripped over something under his feet, and almost fell.

frowned and looked back, but it was a corpse, just stepped on by him like this, his mouth seemed to be open, King Shun was stunned, and hurriedly whispered to probe for breath, and found that she was already weak and only breathed out and did not inhale, but after all, there was still breath, and Yixi shouted: "Come here!" ”

A black shadow suddenly rushed to him, the movement was so fast that he couldn't see clearly, and a knife pierced the chest of the dying maidservant, King Shun was stunned at first, reacted very quickly, and reached out to grab his arm, the man was obviously dressed, but he was slippery like a loach, and he twisted twice and broke free. He jumped again, but he didn't even see where he went.

King Shun smiled bitterly, it was the first time he saw someone so arrogant, and he left like a wind after killing people in front of him.

When Chu Shenxia and Chen Que heard the shouts and caught up, they didn't even see the black shadow that had swept away, they only saw King Shun sitting on the ground and a female corpse lying on the ground, the blood on their chests was gurgling out.

Chu Shenxia looked at the two holes in the woman's chest in a daze, why didn't she seal her throat with a knife?

Chen Que didn't pay attention, just looked at the blood that was still flowing out and asked, "This hole that is still bleeding is obviously filled in the back, Your Highness, did you pierce it?" ”

King Shun glared at him coldly and explained the situation in great detail.

Chen Que was obviously attracted by King Shun's description, there is still such a master in this golden city, who can come and go freely from the front of King Shun who has been fighting for many years, and such a master is actually just to kill a servant, which is really incomprehensible.

Chu Shenxia also frowned, but what he thought was completely different from Chen Que, why didn't he seal his throat with a knife? Could it be that there are really two murderers, so are these two murderers both sent by King Qing? If not, then what is the purpose of the other murderer?

Before they could stop for a moment, there was a sound of fighting in the east, and the three of them felt a gamble in their hearts at the same time, and hurriedly flew over.

Confirming that the voice came from the east wing, Chen Que said angrily: "As I expected, there are indeed ghosts in the east wing." ”

When Chu Shenxia heard him say this, his steps were faster, like the wind, and he ran to the front of the courtyard of the east wing at once, but he was stunned all of a sudden, and the two people behind him arrived and asked in unison, "What's wrong?" ”

When they asked, the eyes of the two had already fallen on the courtyard, and they didn't need Chu Shenxia to answer, they were already clear in their hearts.

Seeing his subordinates lying on their knees, Chen Que couldn't speak with a black face, it was too embarrassing for him, so many people, he couldn't beat a single Jing Yan.

Chu Shenxia's heart finally let go, and he called in a low voice: "Jing Yan." ”

Jing Yan glanced at him, but he had no plans to go over, he still stood in front of the door of the wing room, his eyes swept coldly over those shouting subordinates, and his tone was not high but he said very strongly: "If you are arguing with Mrs. Chu in the room, I want you to look good." ”

Silenced for a moment, those people chose to shut their mouths very decisively, and when they saw Chen Que with a black face, they hurriedly got up and stood behind him with their heads bowed under Chen Que's terrible eyes.

Chu Shenxia's gaze fell on Jing Huan, who had a cold face, and he couldn't help but be moved, his eyes that were inviolable as if guarding his beloved things penetrated Chu Shenxia's hard heart, and he was suddenly very sour, if Shen Yu was still there, he would protect his mother like him. Thinking that he had just agreed to Chen Que to search the East Wing, he suddenly crawled up in shame, and apologized to this Chen Que: "I'm sorry, Lord Si, I'm afraid of my mother's room..."

Chen Que waved his hand unexpectedly, as if it was useless to say: "That's it, Mrs. Chu will not bother since she has already slept." His eyes fell on Jing Yan twice, and he continued: "Besides, with such a dutiful person guarding it, there must be no murderer who can escape here." ”

Quickly withdrawing from the east wing, Chen Que's subordinates opened their mouths as if they wanted to say something, but they were glared back by him, and said angrily with their eyes: "There are so many of you who can't beat him, if you say it, won't you lose my face, what are you doing with me, hurry up and search in other yards!" ”

Chen Que couldn't get angry, looked at their backs and scolded angrily: "This group of rice buckets! ”
