After Bai Xiyue read the news, she set it on fire, and the ashes floated in the hall of Tianji Pavilion. She glanced at the shadow and turned to leave.

The Shadow stared at where she had disappeared and said to the masked man, "Master, let her be checked."

This woman is generous, the origin is unknown, and she can do martial arts, and she targets the royal people like this, so it is better to figure out whether she is an enemy or a friend.

On the other side, Bai Xiyue was already on her way to find the second prince, and she bought the news, so she didn't want Gu Jiuxiao to have a better day, but also let him taste the painful feeling.

Although the second prince is an adult, he can live in the palace because he is loved by the emperor. However, there is another mansion next to the palace, which was also given to Gu Jiuxiao by the emperor to live on weekdays.

Bai Xiyue went directly to the second prince's mansion, the news wrote on the second prince's movements today, some of his henchmen, and the floor plan of the second prince's mansion, so many things, a hundred taels of gold is not too expensive.

Bai Xiyue shook off the messy thoughts in her mind, secretly hid in the corner, waited for a good time, and waited for the opportunity to move, not too long ago, the moon disappeared into the clouds, only to see the shadow of the tree shake, and she left the place.

The next day, a large number of officers and soldiers appeared near the second prince's mansion, and the surrounding people did not dare to approach, and some people who saw it even fainted in fright.

In the palace, Gu Yuanzhen summoned people from the Criminal Department.

"See the emperor!" Shen Tian knelt down and bowed.

Gu Yuanzhen waved her hand impatiently, "Get up!" ”

"What did you see in the second prince's mansion, why did the people around you faint in fright." Gu Yuanzhen asked sharply.

Shen Tian replied hesitantly: "Go back to the emperor!" When we arrived, we saw ,,, only ,,,"

"I only saw something!" The emperor asked impatiently, nothing has been going well recently, he has been in a hurry for several days, and he is about to get sick, which is not easy to live in peace for a few days, but Xiao'er has an accident again.

"I saw several corpses hanging in front of the door, and they were all skinned, and the wrists and ankles of those people were also cut, and blood flowed down the corpses, and there were rivers of blood on the streets."

"Not only that, but when we entered the house, we found that all the guards were dead, and strangely enough, they didn't have any wounds on their bodies, nor did they show any signs of poisoning, as if they were asleep, but they really didn't have a pulse." Shen Tian said it in one breath.

"What!" Gu Yuanzhen almost couldn't stand when she heard this. After stabilizing his body, he asked, "What about Xiao'er!" Xiao'er is okay! ”

Those individuals are not important, if they die, they will die, as long as Gu Jiuxiao is fine, no matter how many people die Gu Yuanzhen will not feel distressed.

After Shen Tian heard this, he couldn't help but recall the gloomy scene.

"The second prince was not in the mansion last night, but the second prince's room seemed to have gone through a fierce fight, everything was shattered, and the whole room was also covered with blood, and the smell was pungent, as if he had entered the Shura field."

After hearing this, Gu Yuanzhen said angrily: "At the feet of the Son of Heaven, such a thing happened."

In the event of such a serious murder, it was the second prince's guards who died, which inevitably made people feel that the emperor's governance was not strict enough, which led to such a thing, Gu Yuanzhen definitely didn't want to admit his incompetence, he could only find out who was behind the scenes to blame.

"Your Majesty, the people around you have seen this scene, and now the people in the city are panicking, and many people say that the second prince has been contaminated with ominous things." Shen Tian continued.

He has been in the Criminal Department for so long, and it is the first time he has encountered such a strange method of killing, or in the place where the second prince lives, it is really strange that so many people who died did not catch the assassin.

"Check it, check it for me." Gu Yuanzhen slapped the table with a clang.

"Yes. The subordinates will go. ”

After Shen Tian retreated, Prime Minister Zuo came.

"See the emperor!"

"Get up!" Gu Yuanzhen had just lost her temper, and now she was a little weak when she spoke, not as full of anger as she was just now.

Prime Minister Zuo also heard about this morning's incident, he came today to think of a good thing that kills two birds with one stone, although the emperor has always encountered unsatisfactory things recently, but Prime Minister Zuo can be said to be a good thing, the day before yesterday and the second prince stood in a team, and by the way, Bai Xiyue was humiliated, and today he encountered such a thing, so that he had a reason to mention Bai Xiyue, Prime Minister Zuo was excited and didn't sleep all night.

"Your Majesty! Don't you think it's a bit strange that the second prince is happening! Prime Minister Zuo first tentatively said his thoughts, he knows the emperor very well, he doesn't like others to directly put forward his ideas and opinions, in order to achieve his own goals, he has long practiced a series of clichés.

You only need to guide the emperor step by step, otherwise you may achieve the opposite effect.

Gu Yuanzhen asked suspiciously, "How can Aiqing say this?"

"Your Majesty! Who could have killed so many guards so quietly without leaving a trace, and most importantly, with such cruel means. Prime Minister Zuo guided the emperor.

Gu Yuanzhen thought about it, this technique is a little familiar, who could it be, he searched in his mind, and suddenly thought of a person, that person also washed the Dragon Yin Hall in blood, and his methods were even more cruel than today.

"You mean Gu Yichen."

Seeing that the emperor was suspicious, Prime Minister Zuo continued: "Apart from the regent, who else would have such a great hatred with the royal family."

"The regent has nothing to do with the second prince, how could he do this." Gu Yuanzhen felt that Gu Yichen was a little reluctant to judge from this.

"Your Majesty, you have heard the rumors in the city recently, Prime Minister Bai's daughter failed to seduce the second prince, but was humiliated." Prime Minister Zuo continued to introduce.

Gu Yuanzhen disagreed, "Some women pursue Xiao'er, it's normal, it can't be this woman who killed these guards!" ”

"And what if the Lord Regent helps!" Prime Minister Zuo reminded.

Gu Yuanzhen was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, she had a bold guess, could it be that Gu Yichen liked Bai Zheng's daughter, and seeing that she was wronged by this, in order to avenge her, he killed Xiao'er's guards.

Prime Minister Zuo Cheng saw that the emperor already had a conjecture in his heart, so he said the real purpose of his coming.

"Your Majesty, it's better to marry Prime Minister Bai's daughter to the regent and calm his anger, otherwise he dares to kill the second prince's guards today, maybe he can kill the emperor tomorrow!"

Prime Minister Zuo looked worried about the emperor when he said it, and anyone who saw it had to say a word of loyalty.

Gu Yuanzhen's anger that had just subsided after hearing these words burned again, "Why should I calm the anger of a prince, who does he like, I don't want him to marry anyone." ”

The expression on Prime Minister Zuo's face almost didn't collapse, why did he choose him to support him in the first place, and he only thought about killing his own brother, completely ignoring the overall situation.

Prime Minister Zuo didn't think that he was still the same, and he only thought about killing his colleagues.

"Your Majesty, this Bai Xiyue not only has a bad reputation, but also loves the second prince, if the regent marries her, do you think he will have a good life!"

After Gu Yuanzhen heard this, he withdrew Prime Minister Zuo, this matter needs to be cautious, he doesn't know Zuo Guangzhi's careful thinking, but giving such a woman to Gu Yichen in marriage can indeed humiliate him fiercely. For a while, Gu Yuanzhen was a little undecided.

"Master, the shadows are coming!" The dark one walked in from outside the door.

Gu Yichen looked at the chess game and said, "Let him in!"

The shadow walked in, his face a little nervous, and he stood crampedly in front of Gu Yichen.

"Have you found out what her background is?" Gu Yichen dropped a chess piece and said slowly.

The shadow slammed down and knelt down, and said in a heavy tone, "The subordinates are incompetent, and their background can't be found."

Gu Yichen's tone suddenly said coldly: "It's quite incompetent!" Are the people of Tianji Pavilion too comfortable, they have lost several times, last time it was the woman in white who escaped, and this time it was the woman in black who made such a move.

Wait, Gu Yichen suddenly thought of something, it is very likely that these two times are the same person, if so, then who is she doing things for. It seems that he has been poisoned, so that many forces in the secret are ready to move, and they must be detoxified as soon as possible.

"When will Lin Zi'an come back!" Gu Yichen regained his expression.

"Dr. Lin will be back before the Midyear Festival." The shadow was frightened at this time, he knew his master's methods, and never left useless people, and he seemed to have made a lot of mistakes recently.
