Act 84 Prayer for Hidden Murder
Remember in a second
Seeing them away, Yu Xuanxun felt a little calm, and sat on the altar and pondered the bag in his hand.
remembered that he once followed his sister to the scene of the martial arts ring at someone else's house, and couldn't help but laugh on his face, if it wasn't for the eldest brother, I was afraid that my sister would have married the young lady of that family.
My sister has always treated her very well, and once said that if she had the opportunity, she would take her to the imperial capital to have a good time. But now that she has come to the imperial capital and is in the palace, she is no longer there.
After five years, she still can't forget the feeling when her eldest brother told her the news, just the day before her sister wrote that she would soon bring her beloved to Yumen Villa to find her, but ...... She couldn't figure out why her sister died suddenly.
Although the eldest brother told her that she was killed because of an accident on the way back, Yu Xuanxun didn't believe this statement, but he had no way to find out, and gradually had to accept the result.
If she remembers correctly, the news of her sister's death came from Songcheng, what fierce beasts are hidden in Songcheng, and many unbelievable things will happen.
Now that he knows that his sister's beloved at that time is Wu Ye, then he must have known what happened at that time, and when the prayer is over, he will definitely go to the Taiyi Bureau to ask him about the cause and effect.
In the second night of hunger and nostalgia for the old man, because of last night's planting Yuxuan was a little more vigilant, and he was also extra vigilant against the movements around him.
But after all, I haven't eaten for a day and a night, and I don't get a drop of water, even if I try my spirit, I can't improve my concentration, and I fell asleep unconsciously.
The cold of the night made her wake up suddenly, her arm tightened, Yu Xuan Xun realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly struggled to get up, and the man in black in front of him suddenly took out a dagger from his sleeve and approached step by step.
Yuxuan asked guardedly, "Who sent you?" Taking advantage of the situation, he glanced down the stage and found that all the guards had been stunned, and he secretly screamed in his heart that something was not good, and tried to find something to attack while retreating.
But in the end, there was nothing, seeing that there was no way back and was about to fight to the death, even the most timely appearance to knock back the man in black, Yu Xuanxun also snatched the dagger in the other party's hand in a panic and cut his arm.
In order to protect Yu Xuanxun, who almost fell off the altar, even the man in black escaped.
"You've been secretly observing, haven't you?" Yu Xuanxun didn't believe that Lian would come in such a timely manner, and the only possibility was that he had always been there.
Lian put away his saber and replied indifferently, "The prince is worried about the girl's safety, and specially ordered his subordinates to secretly protect the girl." ”
"If you say that, you were there the first night." Yu Xuanxun seemed to think of something, and asked with confirmation, "So did you see who knocked me out last night?" ”
Lian Shi shook his head and explained, "My subordinates came at night today, and the prince heard about the girl's situation from Princess Di, so he ordered his subordinates to come over." ”
Yuxuanxun guessed that things would not stop there, although it was not known who was behind the manipulation of the bad assassin, but now was undoubtedly the best time to deal with her.
Therefore, the other party will not easily let go of this last opportunity, but the appearance of Lian Ji has already aroused their vigilance, and I am afraid that it will not be so easy to lead the other party to appear.
After thinking about it, Yuxuan had an idea, whispered a few words to Lian Zhi, and waited for the third night to come.
However, the only accident that she didn't expect was Shi Ruomei, everything had been planned, just waiting for you to enter the urn, but Shi Ruomei gave her a Li Dai Taozhuang, which disrupted all her plans.
Yu Xuanxun, who was hidden under the altar, tried to break free several times, but because he couldn't use his strength after a few days of hunger strike, he was trying to attract Lian Ji's attention when he heard the sound of squirming footsteps, and was still speculating that there was smoke floating from above.
Yu Xuanxun was stunned to find that it was the other party who set fire to the altar, and the panic was still spreading, and Shi Ruomei's shout came from his ears, "Come on, Xuanxun is still below." ”
Gradually, her voice became weaker, the smoke became louder and louder, and in the noise, Lian Shi appeared and carried her out from under the altar, and she hurriedly said to Lian Shi as she ripped off the strip of cloth in her mouth, "Quick, let me down, Ruomei is still on it." ”
But Lian Ji did not immediately carry out her words, "The prince has an order to protect you thoroughly, and his subordinates will take you to a safe place first." ”
Yuxuan wanted to resist, but after all, he still couldn't use any strength, seeing that Shi Ruomei was suffering in the firelight, he was very annoyed in his heart, "Even if I let me go, Ruomei will not forgive myself in my life if something happens." ”
Lian Ji didn't stop leaving, and at the moment when An Ran let go of Yuxuan and found it, he received a slap from her, "She is my only sister in the palace, why don't you let me save her, why." ”
Looking at the altar that collapsed in the firelight, Yu Xuanxun was already in tears at this moment, and her heart was almost out of breath, just when she hugged her head and cried, Shi Ruomei's voice came, "Xuanxun will be relieved to see that you are okay." ”
Looking up and seeing the eleventh prince approaching with Shi Ruomei in his arms, Yu Xuanxun cried and laughed and rushed over and hugged Shi Ruomei, and said angrily, "You stupid girl, what should I do if you die, it's a big thank God that you're okay." ”
"Being able to be with you is the biggest thing in my life." Shi Ruomei, who escaped death, happily hugged Yuxuan and said with a smile.
After resting, Yu Xuanxun took Shi Ruomei to think about the emperor to explain what happened in the past few days, but who knew that the result was that she neglected her duties and destroyed the blessing, resulting in a failure.
Yu Xuanxun protested unconvinced in his heart, "There was such a big movement in the fire last night, isn't it that someone deliberately wants to kill the slave?" If it weren't for the eleventh prince, I am afraid that the slave and Ruomei would have been buried in the fire. ”
"Do you have evidence that someone set the fire to it?" The emperor approached and asked, "I have already found someone to inspect the altar, and there is no sign of arson, but it seems that someone is only concerned about sisterhood and playing on the altar." ”
"The emperor doesn't believe the words of the slave?"
"If I want to believe it, I must come up with substantial evidence, otherwise I will not be able to convince the public based on your words alone."
"There must be proof, but not now."
"Then when you come up with evidence, I will seek justice for you, and I will be punished obediently now."
Yu Xuanxun was powerless to refute, and in the end, he was fined ten boards by the emperor to clean up the altar and deal with the mess after the fire.
The ninth prince and the eleventh prince sent people to help her deal with the aftermath, but they were all refused, and Yuxuan was stubborn and dragged her injured body back and forth in the rain.
In the end, she fainted on the ground due to physical exhaustion, and the chief manager of Laining led someone to send her to Deren Palace, and ordered the imperial doctor to come to see her in person, so she went back with peace of mind.
Shi Ruomei and Mrs. Yu took turns to stay by their side to take care of the fever, "You have a good rest, I will help you decoct the medicine now." ”
"Just leave this kind of thing to the palace maid, and the master girl will go and rest after a night of tiredness." Lady Yu, who was also tired, said.
Yu Xuan Xun said in a commanding tone, "You all go and rest, I'm much better." ”
"The matter of decoction can only be relieved if I come in person, and when Madam is tired, I will send you back to the room to rest first." Shi Ruomei's tone was very stubborn, and he forced Mrs. Yu to leave as she spoke.
Yu Xuanxun suddenly felt thirsty and struggled to get up, and a guard suddenly came over to help her up, and said softly, "You are weak now, or you should rest more." ”
Yuxuan found that it was the Nine Princes, and said in a daze, "I'm thirsty." ”
The Ninth Prince turned around and poured her a glass of water, handed it over, and said softly, "Drink slowly." ”
Yu Xuanxun was stunned and took a drink, and returned it to the Nine Princes, "Can I pour another glass?" ”
"You should let this king say something." Instinctively took it and turned around.
Yu Xuanxun said lightly to his back, "The prince shouldn't appear here, everything the slave maid did was to blame, and the prince should not be affected." ”
The Nine Princes suddenly turned around and hugged her into his arms, tightly protected in his embrace, and whispered in his ear, "When Lian talked about that night, how afraid this king is of losing do you know?" ”
"Lord Wang, everyone says that the slave is a nine-life cat demon, so it is not so easy to die."
"No nonsense." Yu Xuanxun's joke was stopped by the Nine Princes, and he held her face dotingly and said, "You belong to this king, and you are not allowed to know anything without this king's order?" ”
Yu Xuanxun's mind suddenly appeared in the emperor's appearance, and he moved back with some resistance, took down the hand of the ninth prince and said seriously, "Zheng Zhinian, Jiao Jiuxing, these two people were the same subordinates of the old general Tong Su as my father, I suspect that my father's death is related to them, and the slave wants to ask the prince to help me check their current identities." ”
The Ninth Prince put the poured water into Yu Xuanxun's hand, "Why did you think of these two people, they have not heard from them since they left the barracks, if you want to find them, I am afraid it will not be so easy." ”
"The slave knows the difficulties, but she wants to try if she has a glimmer of hope." The hand that grabbed the cup squeezed subconsciously.
The Ninth Prince held her hand distressedly and promised, "This king will live up to your trust, and he will help you dig them out with all his connections." ”
"The slave and maid thanked the prince first."
The Nine Princes pulled Yuxuanxun to him, the distance between his head and his head made each other's breathing very clear, and the cup in his hand fell to the ground without holding it steadily for a while.
Before Yu Xuanxun could react, the kiss of the Nine Princes had already fallen on her lips, and for a long time, the Nine Princes commanded with a doting face, "Rest well, this king will come to see you another day." ”
"Xuanxun, I got you some food, I haven't eaten much for a few days, so I'll pad my stomach first." Shi Ruomei suddenly broke in and saw the picture of them together, "You guys? ”
