The other side

Ouyang Yao and the others came to a temple, and when they saw this place, everyone asked:

"Isn't this the Wutong Hall where Concubine Ruan lives? Didn't she go to worship the Buddha with peace of mind? How to ......"

Ouyang Yao walked in with a solemn face, and everyone followed.

As soon as I entered, I turned my head and saw more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground, among them, the one who was plainly dressed and had a somewhat old face was the owner of this Wutong Palace, Concubine Ruan.

"Shhh Rao is a minister who has experienced all kinds of major events, and the ministers are also a little frightened by this.

The minister in charge of handling this aspect was also stunned for a moment, and then immediately stepped forward to check the body, and the attendant guards and some ministers went to the store to look for clues without Ouyang Yao's order.

Ouyang Yao frowned tightly and looked at the corpse on the ground fixedly.

Who is so bold? He dared to kill people in the palace. ”

"Yes, it really disturbed everyone's interest to be found at such a time."

After relieving himself, the minister who remained behind Ouyang Yao began to discuss.

After a long time, the guards and ministers who entered the palace ran out, and two guards were pulling an unconscious palace maid.

"Your Majesty, my subordinates found this maid in the secret compartment under Concubine Ruan's bed."

Ouyang Yao frowned and looked at the sleeping maidservant and said, "Wake her up." ”

At this time, the minister who checked the corpse also found that there was a living person in the corpse, he checked her pulse, and after understanding the situation, he used spiritual power to wake her up.

The servant girl woke up slowly, she looked around in fear, and cried out, "Dead! There are dead people! "It seems that she is not in her right mind.

Seeing this, the minister who woke her up asked the guards to come and suppress her, and then he walked up to Ouyang Yao and replied: "Your Majesty, when the minister checked the concubine again, he found that the concubine had no injuries on her body, but her face was blue, and she was probably poisoned to death." Others, on the other hand, have traces of being attacked by spiritual power. The minister believes that if he can kill so many people in such a sensitive place in the palace without making a sound, this person's strength should be extremely strong. Of course, the possibility of multiple people committing the crime cannot be ruled out. ”

He paused, pointed to the suppressed and delirious servant, and said, "And the handmaiden, the minister guesses, should be the one who came from the scream." ”

At this time, the maid who was brought out was also woken up by the guards, she looked up blankly, and when she touched the bright yellow figure, she said in panic: "See Your Majesty!" ”

Ouyang Yao didn't speak, and a minister standing next to him stepped forward and said, "Say!" Why did you kill Concubine Ruan! The minister did not question her if she had killed Concubine Ruan, but directly convicted her, confirming that she was the murderer.

Only then did the maid notice the corpse lying on the ground, and she was so frightened that she took a few steps back.

"No, I didn't kill it! I didn't kill it! Her face turned pale and she cried out in horror.

"Hmph" he snorted coldly and continued to ask:

"Not you? Then tell me, why is the entire Wutong Hall dead, and only you are still alive? Why are you at Concubine Nguyen's bed? ”

"I don't know? I don't know......" the servant girl shook her head vigorously and cried out loudly.

"Prime Minister, maybe she is not a murderer" At this time, Ouyang Yao, who had been standing in the center of the crowd for a long time, slowly spoke.

"Your Majesty! If she wasn't, who else could there be? The prime minister looked at him in disbelief, and his tone was quite unhappy.

"But she has no motive to kill, and she doesn't have the ability to kill multiple people at once."

"Maybe she has a helper? And your majesty, how do you know that she has no motive to kill? There was a hint of impatience in his expression, and his tone was not very respectful.

"Brother Royal"

Ouyang Yao wanted to dismiss his words again, but was interrupted by Ouyang Lan's sudden shout.

He turned around, and the ministers also turned around, and then saw Ouyang Lan coming quickly with a group of women and children.

"Husband!"

"Daddy!"

……

Seeing the backbone, the people who came with Ouyang Lan went to their respective husbands or fathers and talked aggrievedly about the assassin's assassination that had just happened.

Ouyang Lan took Fu Baixing and Bei Tan Luo to Ouyang Yao and Fu Kangcheng's side.

"Ahh The female relatives who had just seen the corpse were frightened, but fortunately, the appearance of the corpse was not terrifying, so they were only frightened for a while, and they were able to adapt quickly.

"Lan'er, why are you here?" Ouyang Yao looked at them with a puzzled expression.

"There was an assassination just now, and the people present were worried that the assassins would come again, so I brought them here." Ouyang Lan's face was calm, and she didn't look frightened at all.

"What? Assassin! Ouyang Yao was a little surprised, and at the same time very angry.

Fu Kangcheng walked to Ouyang Lan's side, looked her up and down, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was okay, and then stretched out his long arms and took her into his arms.

"Uncle Yao, what happened?" Bei Qian Luo was holding Fu Baixing in his hands, and since Ouyang Yao had walked out of the crowd directly when he saw them, they didn't see those corpses.

"Alas" Ouyang Yao sighed, not knowing if he could tell her about it.

Fu Kangcheng let go of Ouyang Lan and saw his hesitation, so he directly recounted the incident to her.

"What! Is Concubine Ruan dead? Ouyang Lan was very surprised.

"Hasn't she always been quiet? How could someone suddenly be killed? ”

Bei Tanluo walked to the side of the corpse and looked at it for a while, looking up at the servant girl who was designated as a suspect, but happened to see something suddenly appear in the prime minister's hand, and he quietly punched it into the servant girl without being noticed by others.

She frowned, thinking about what it was.

Suddenly, the servant girl rose from the ground and struck at Fu Kangcheng at an alarming speed.

Fu Kangcheng turned his back to her, but out of the instinct of a cultivator, he quickly noticed it, he turned around, carried out spiritual power in his hand, and hit her before the maid could strike first.

"Poof!" The maid's cultivation is not strong, even if she has the blessing of special power, she can't withstand the blow of a ground level master.

After being attacked, she vomited blood on the spot and fell to the ground without breathing.

The prime minister didn't expect Fu Kangcheng's strength to be so strong, so he was a little stunned when he saw the maidservant die.

But he didn't show his panic after being in a high position for many years, and after adjusting his emotions, he began to complain to Ouyang Yao:

"Your Majesty, the minister said that she was the murderer of Concubine Ruan, but you didn't believe it, but now that she is going to kill in front of you, don't you still want to believe it?"

Ouyang Yao frowned, believing his words a little in his heart, but he still couldn't understand why she did this, what her motives were.

Bei Tan Luo took in the whole process, and felt very ridiculous about his words at the moment.
