After leaving the palace, Chu Ning did not go back to the princess's mansion directly, but went to King Ning's mansion.

When she entered the palace, the emperor did beat her in front of Master Lin for the death of the two people in the palace - Master Lin was looking for death and life, and begged the emperor to give him justice.

The emperor naturally wanted to question Chu Ning.

But Chu Ning didn't care.

Even if the emperor is thunderous and angry, the one who is terrified will never be her.

went to King Ning's Mansion because the emperor asked her to assist King Jinyi Wei in King Ning's case, and in the words of the official, it was to atone for her sins.

Chu Ning was noncommittal.

A trip to King Ning's Mansion couldn't delay her much, so she didn't refuse.

When she stepped into King Ning's Mansion, she was followed by two brocade guards-

Jin Yiwei was ordered to investigate the cause of King Ning's death, but the emperor only gave three days.

There was a condensed and depressing atmosphere in King Ning's mansion at the moment, and the people looked panicked, and when they saw the arrival of the eldest princess, they knelt on the ground and didn't dare to raise their heads.

The place of the crime was in the bath.

The palace housekeeper led the eldest princess to the place where King Ning bathed, and explained as she walked: "The prince is used to bathing after dinner, and then go to the Qinglou to sit. Last night, the subordinates calculated the time, the carriage had stopped outside the mansion, and the prince bathed but did not come out for a long time, although the subordinates had the intention to urge, but they did not dare to disturb due to the prince's order not to disturb. ”

So it took a long time for them to realize that something was wrong.

When King Ning's personal guards went to ask for instructions, they found King Ning dead in the bath, and his body had been soaked for a while.

Ning Wangfu suddenly fell into a chaos, and everyone was panicked.

But in the middle of the night, the palace gate was closed, and the news could not be delivered to the palace, so it could only wait until the palace door was opened in the morning.

Chu Ning didn't speak, and arrived at the bathhouse with an expressionless face.

King Ning's body had been fished out of the pool and laid flat on the floor tiles on the edge of the bath.

The corpse was swollen, and naturally there was nothing beautiful to speak of.

Jin Yiwei stepped forward to perform an autopsy, said "Lord Wang, his subordinates are offended", then squatted down and cautiously lifted his clothes.

The fatal wound is the vital point in the center of the neck, the wound is very clear, and it kills with one move.

Chu Ning examined the wound silently, with no special emotions on her face.

"Wounded by a hidden weapon." Her tone was indifferent, "King Ning's death should be the work of the masters of the rivers and lakes, and there is no target to lock for the time being." ”

Jinyi guard next to him: "......"

That's it?

The emperor asked the eldest princess to assist Jinyiwei in finding out the cause of King Ning's death, but the eldest princess only gave such an answer?

"What about the others?" One of the brocade guards asked respectfully, "Can Your Highness see what kind of secret weapon this wound was made?" ”

"The tip of a thin knife or dagger." Chu Ning turned around and glanced around the bath hall, and didn't find anything abnormal, so he turned around and walked out, "Go back and tell your commander, let him investigate King Ning's death by himself, and the palace will no longer pay attention to it." ”

Coming here in person has already given the emperor enough face, don't ask for more.

Hearing this, the two brocade guards looked at each other silently, and their expressions were a little subtle.

Sure enough, it was the eldest princess who didn't recognize her six relatives.

King Ning is also her royal brother, so she is indifferent to his death, and she is not even happy to help investigate the murderer......

The cause of King Ning's death is not easy to investigate, and even the eldest princess said that she can't lock the target, and if it's really a person in the rivers and lakes, the target is so big, where to find the murderer?
