Zhong Xiaoshu shouted loudly, and suddenly the noisy voice disappeared.

The world around her suddenly became very quiet, and she let out a long breath of cloudy air.

She sat cross-legged on the ground and looked around, it was gray everywhere, and she couldn't tell where it was.

The next morning, a mist arose, and dew hung on the blades of grass, waiting for passers-by to pass by and wait for an opportunity to wet the hem of his clothes.

Outside the Imperial City, the patrol team patrolled as usual.

When they walked under a city wall, someone keenly smelled the smell of blood, and everyone immediately scattered to find the source of the smell of blood.

After a while, there was a scream, and the people around gathered around, and in the light of the torches, the large characters written on the city wall were revealed.

"Give her back to me!"

The palace people yawned and got up to work early, took a shortcut, and the hem of their clothes was successfully wet with dew.

He rubbed his eyes and opened the door of the main hall to clean it, but he saw a person lying in the hall.

As soon as this came out, he was so frightened that he immediately came to his senses.

There was a silk veil hanging in the hall, and the figure lying in it stood outside and couldn't see it clearly.

The palace man swallowed his saliva hard, afraid of something strange, and didn't dare to go in alone to check it.

He ran out of the main hall and dragged another little eunuch in, and after pulling away the silk veil, they finally saw Zhong Xiaoshu lying on the ground sleeping.

Zhong Xiaoshu came back without alarming anyone, and the dark guard did not have any news.

The first one who couldn't sit still was Yin Zhige, and after knowing it, he immediately rushed to the main hall.

Seeing the person he thought about day and night standing in front of him, his throat ached a little.

He strode forward and said that Zhong Xiaoshu was tightly hugged in his arms, and Zhong Xiaoshu was almost strangled by him.

"Do you remember how you got back?"

Holding Zhong Xiaoshu's shoulder, Yin Zhige asked, Zhong Xiaoshu looked at him and shook his head.

"I just feel like I've been dreaming, so many dreams, real and false, that my head is messed up."

Zhong Xiaoshu thought about it for a while, and only remembered that he woke up from a dream in front of a ruin.

But then she fainted again for some reason, and then began to have some messy dreams again.

Yin Zhige paused, Tianyu begged that man last night, and then Zhong Xiaoshu came back today, could it be Tianyu's reason?

Before he could determine whether his conjecture was correct, Xiao Dezi rushed in from outside in a panic, saying that the second prince had something important to see.

"What?"

After listening to the report of the second prince, Yin Zhige immediately slapped the table.

"I found it early in the morning when the guards were patrolling, and the bloody five big characters were written on the wall, which scared several timid people on the spot."

"Who's pretending to be a ghost?" Yin Zhige was in a bad mood, and the second prince was not much better.

The blood characters are written under the imperial walls, isn't this in the red. Guoguo's slap in the face, he is responsible for the patrol guards of the imperial city.

After the two discussed the countermeasures, the second prince went out of the imperial study, and after returning to the temporary residence in the palace, he saw Tianyu's red eyes.

"Lord, there is a palace maid outside who said that someone wrote blood on the city wall, right?"

Looking at Tianyu, who was frightened, the mood of the second prince was simply extremely bad.

At noon, a war report came from the frontier, saying that it was good news, and even the scout who delivered the letter had a smile on his face.

The scout knelt down and saluted, and then his face was full of irrepressible happiness, and he looked at Yin Zhige.

"The ministers have not disgraced their mission, the Xia Kingdom has been defeated and retreated for ten miles, and has already admitted defeat and sued for peace, and my Xichuan territory has increased several cities!"

The soldiers may have a loud voice, and there is no need for the little eunuch outside to eavesdrop on the corner, and the scout's excited voice will come out, and it is difficult to hear it.

As soon as such happy news came out, the people in the entire palace were jubilant, just like the New Year.

I don't know who said it, happiness is sad.

In the middle of the night, after beating the last drum, the husband was about to pack up and go home, but he was passing by an alley.

Suddenly, a pair of hands reached out from the darkness, grabbed him by the neck, and dragged him alive into the abyss.

The next morning, the inhabitants of the box were awakened by a loud scream.

Someone died at the mouth of the alley, with a huge cut in his neck and his head almost falling off.

The body was found by a young woman who had gotten up early to buy groceries at the entrance of the alley, and now looked like she was frightened crazy.

Someone in the crowd recognized the deceased as a husband who lived in the east of the city, and pretended to have died last night, and all of a sudden the air froze.

"How did you cut this wound so big?"

Although there were soldiers who separated the crowd, there were still many people outside, and the corpse had been covered with a white cloth and carried away.

But the blackened blood on the ground silently testified to what had happened here.

"I saw it when the officers and soldiers didn't come before, and the wound almost cut off the whole head, where could such a weapon be hidden in the city."

A few good people gathered together and chatted, and the voice was not restrained, so it was not small, and the people who were a little closer around could hear it.

"I used to see that the people in Frontier Town wore a kind of scimitar."

"Could it be that the frontier people did it? The wound was so big, it was easy for a cutlass to cut it. ”

……

The three of them became tigers, I don't know why, public opinion appeared suddenly.

The husband of the Seongdong watchman died, and the cause of death was that his neck was cut, and the wound on his neck almost made his entire head hang down on his chest.

Just when everyone was suspicious, the second deceased appeared, still in the east of the city, who had his hands and feet cut off and died of excessive blood loss.

The wounds of the two deceased were somewhat similar, so more and more people began to spread the word that it was a frontier man who committed the crime, and the tool of the crime was a scimitar.

The news couldn't be hidden, and it was quickly sent to the palace, and Yin Zhige directly lifted the table after knowing it.

"Who is behind this, and is it going to stir up the feelings between me and the frontier!"

The porcelain on the table crackled and fell to the ground, shattered everywhere.

The palace people who were waiting around didn't dare to come out, for fear of getting angry.

When the second prince came, he saw broken porcelain in a place, and he didn't have to think about it to know what was happening.

"Your Majesty is angry, this matter must not be so simple."

Yin Zhige only felt that his temples kept jumping, and he exhaled a breath of turbidity, "You say." ”

"In today's situation, someone must be behind the guidance.

Now that the number of dead is increasing day by day, and the people are uneasy, for fear of chaos, the ministers think that we can invite the king into the urn. ”

Yin Zhige raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, "How to please?" ”

The second prince clenched his fists, frowned and said, "Now all this seems to be not aimed at Your Majesty or Niangniang, but for Tianyu." ”
