Just when these men showed the expressions of hungry wolves pounced on the tiger, Gu Jin suddenly felt that a gust of wind passed by in his ears, and the fire fold in his hand suddenly went out.

It was dark at first, and she couldn't see the scene in front of her clearly, and after getting used to it for a while, she realized that there was a sound of fighting.

Gu Jin wondered in her heart, could it be that these people had infighting, she wanted to take advantage of the chaos to leave, but suddenly felt that something was not right.

She had observed those rough men just now, and she could see that they didn't have light kung fu on their bodies, but relying on brute strength, now they could hear the sound of fighting in their ears, and there was the sound of fluttering!

Gu Jin hurriedly restarted the fire, but there was calm in front of him.

The five men fell to the ground and cried bitterly, but the one standing on their side was an acquaintance.

The caftan is pine and cypress colored, and the ancient jade is warm and deep - Lu Chengxiu.

"Don't get out of here yet."

There was a faint anger in the man's voice, but it still did not lose the steadiness and persistence of his usual life.

Those men seemed to be seriously injured, but when they heard this, they all managed to get up from the ground and run away, not even daring to take a look at Gu Jin's skirt when they left.

Gu Jin took a breath, looked at the backs of the five people and narrowed his eyes, but he didn't say anything after all.

She looked at Lu Chengxiu in front of her, only to see that his figure was slender, Gu Jin originally thought that he was more literate than Lu Guitang, but when I saw him tonight, I knew that he was also very handy in fist and foot kung fu, it can be seen that the water in the Dazhen court is quite deep, and Lu Guitang is not the only one who is clumsy.

Gu Jin leaned slightly to face him, did not salute, but said thanks: "Thank you, Lord Wang." ”

The corners of Lu Chengxiu's mouth hooked, and his face revealed a little joy, and he said lightly: "Miss Gu has saved this king so many times, and now I have saved you after all." ”

Gu Jin was slightly stunned, remembering that when she was married to Dr. Kang by He Shiqiang, Lu Chengxiu dared to risk the world's disapproval to block the sedan chair on the long street, she was not sure what Lu Chengxiu thought about herself, but if it was the four words of gratitude and retribution, she couldn't help but sneer.

"I hope I won't accept the prince's kindness in the future, after all, it's ...... It's uneven. ”

Lu Chengxiu was slightly stunned, naturally he didn't understand the meaning of Gu Jin's words, so he simply diverted the topic.

"It's getting late, what is Miss Gu doing when she comes to this deep mountain alone?"

Gu Jin glanced up at him, and saw that Lu Chengxiu's words were serious, she chuckled, naturally she didn't bother to say these twists and turns to him, so she simply paced forward and walked into the depths of the dense forest.

"The prince is here for him."

After a few steps, Gu Jin stopped again, and with a new tuft of soil in front of him, if nothing else, it would be the place where Una's bones were buried.

Lu Chengxiu had been following behind her, and when he saw this, he also stopped, looked at the prospect, and sighed twice: "My fourth brother has asked General Gu Shao to be a helper, and I see that he is bound to win this investigation, and I can't let it go." ”

Gu Jin tilted her head slightly, she didn't think that Lu Chengxiu would be honest with herself this time, she sighed lightly, and walked closer to the new mound: "His Royal Highness King Xian and his brother have left the inner city, so naturally they won't be able to come back tonight, and this Una's corpse will naturally be in the prince's pocket." ”

"But if I don't come tonight, I'm afraid Miss Gu will also hand over Una's body to the fourth brother safely."

Gu Jin shook his head, he always felt that he was quite estranged from Lu Chengxiu, that is, he was grateful for his kindness in saving him tonight, but it was still difficult to work with him with normal emotions, and he only denied it at the moment: "The prince looks down on the courtiers, if the prince does not arrive tonight, it is unknown whether the courtiers are dead or alive at this time." ”

Lu Chengxiu was silent, and didn't say much at the moment, but found the branches next to him to dig up the new mound of earth, and he didn't shy away from whether Gu Jin was by his side, and when Una's body appeared in front of the two again, two quarters of an hour had passed.

As the night got darker, Gu Jin found a dead branch and lit a torch, and the two of them saw Una's body more clearly.

I only felt that it was only a few hours of hard work, and this person's face turned blue, obviously because of the poison, and the two of them were a little glad that there was a holy decree to bury him at the palace banquet, otherwise the appearance of Una at this time would definitely attract people with hearts to make a big fuss.

"Where is the prince going to take him?"

Chen Xiangsheng had already told them that the real cause of Una's death was poisoning, and with Lu Chengxiu's style of acting, it should not be rigorous enough to dig out Una's body again to verify whether what Chen Xiangsheng said was true.

Sure enough, when he saw Lu Chengxiu's head, his expression was still quite serious, and he asked Gu Jin: "I'm going to take him to the Criminal Department, the waiter of the Criminal Department is waiting for me, will Miss Gu go with me?" ”

Gu Jin hissed, although he didn't understand the affairs of the prison, he could also guess what Lu Chengxiu was going to do by sending a corpse to the Criminal Department, there was a work in the Criminal Department, and the work could be autopsied, and the autopsy could tell what Una had eaten before his death.

Gu Jin nodded, and he was very happy, but it made Lu Chengxiu a little surprised, he knew that Gu Jin was bold, careful, intelligent and cautious, different from ordinary boudoir women, but she dared to personally get involved in the criminal department to observe the autopsy and ask about the case, which still surprised him again.

Una was quite tall, and had been buried in the soil for several hours, covered in dust. Gu Jin thought that it would be very difficult for Lu Chengxiu to drag him, but he didn't expect that he came on a horse, Lu Chengxiu only dragged people out of the dense forest, and the horses were quite spiritual and waited outside.

Walking on this path, and taking advantage of the dead of night, Lu Chengxiu and Gu Jin went all the way to the Criminal Department unimpeded.

As Lu Chengxiu said, the waiter of the Criminal Department was already waiting inside, and when he saw that Gu Jin was following Lu Chengxiu, he didn't dare to ask more questions at all, but respectfully took Una's corpse and called the Punishment Department's servant.

"Lord, if you want to find out what this person ate before his death, you have to cut the abdomen to collect evidence, and the taste is ......," the old man said here and couldn't help but pause, "It's better for the prince and this girl to wait here." ”

Lu Chengxiu pondered for a moment and nodded in response.

Gu Jin didn't say much, so he sat in the hall with him, Lu Chengxiu found the squire of the Criminal Department this time, this person is from the party of King Shu, and he is a person trusted by Lu Chengxiu, even so, it doesn't hurt if she doesn't see the autopsy in person.

"Miss Gu is willing to come to the Criminal Department with me because she wants to find out the real cause of Wuna's death as soon as possible, so that Ming'er can tell me about the fourth brother early in the morning, right?"

Gu Jin's face was silent, but her heart was pierced by Lu Chengxiu, she was unwilling to face this, so she diverted the topic again: "The prince received the holy order to investigate this matter thoroughly, and naturally he wants to know the result more than the courtiers." ”

The implication: It's not that I have to come with you, it's that you have to come.
