"Who?"

Ye Kenan also took out the pistol in his arms, it turned out that there was a well under the palace wall, from which thick black smoke rose, and then a woman's hand appeared.

In the moonlight, the pale hands, the slender knuckles showed signs of decay, and the sharp nails trimmed into the shape of daggers, which grasped the edge of the wellhead. Then came a black hair, like an endless black vine, sprouting from the mouth of the well......

Xiao Junwang felt the black smoke rush into his mouth, as if he was blocked by a woman's finger, and he couldn't make any sound in an instant. He saw it, and Ye Kenan saw it, it wasn't a dream......

A woman crawled out of the well.

There is no complicated headdress for Qing court women, nor gorgeous and heavy court clothes, only a light white robe, just like a Chinese girl on the stage, in the deep palace forbidden garden of the Forbidden City.

"Concubine Zhen! The person who killed you was the big eunuch Cui Yugui, and the little Shao Ying was not in the court, so it had nothing to do with the small one. ”

The sixty-year-old head of the Internal Affairs Office had already knelt down, and the woman in white who had crawled out of the well, covered her face with her long black hair, could not see her face clearly, and every step was so difficult that it made people stand on end in the moonlit night of the Forbidden City.

Suddenly, Detective Ye Ke raised his head and said loudly: "Concubine Zhenniang! The Qing Dynasty is dead! Sixteen years ago, the Queen Mother Lafayette had ascended to heaven, and Guangxu Ye had also died, and now he is buried in Xiling. Your general body has also been buried on the side of the mausoleum of Lord Guangxu, enjoying the glory. The little Ye Kenan, in order to escort a boy, once went to the underground palace of Guangxu Ye under construction. Now that the matter of a thousand autumns has passed, in this deep palace, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty may not be able to stay for a few days. Gengzi year, your hatred, your resentment, history has avenged you, don't be obsessed. The Yellow Spring is falling from the poor, the two places are gone, Guangxu Ye has been miserable all his life, and finally got relief, he is waiting for you underground and looking forward to your reunion, please go back......"

Concubine Zhen, who couldn't see her face, trembled slightly when she heard Ye Kenan's voice, and slowly retreated back the same way, like a cloud of smoke, and retracted back into the well.

Shao Ying, the head of the Internal Affairs Office, had already been like dust, and continued to kowtow on the ground and said: "In the year of Gengzi, when the Eight-Nation Coalition Army entered Beijing City, and the two palaces were about to flee to Xi'an, Cui Yugui was ordered by the Empress Dowager Lafayette to push Concubine Zhen into this well and drown. Later, a year later, although Niangniang's body was salvaged, there was a legend that Zhenfeijing was haunted. ”

"There are so many ghosts in the palace!" Ye Kenan made a pun, and he was not taboo, so he helped the minister in charge up, "I heard that Concubine Zhen was killed by the Empress Dowager Lafayette because she supported Emperor Guangxu's reform and reform." But if the law change was successful, and the six gentlemen of Wuxu were still alive, maybe now the dragon flag has not landed, and it is still Guangxu Ye who is sitting on the dragon court. ”

"The snow-white cat I saw just now is probably also the embodiment of a ghost......

The little king was also in a cold sweat, holding a gun in his hand, and followed the head of the Internal Affairs Office into the East Sixth Palace, which was the residence of the concubines back then, with insufficient yang and yin energy. No wonder, the temperature in the entire Forbidden City is lower than outside, all year round.

Yanxi Palace has arrived.

However, the palace seen in the moonlight is completely different from any of the Forbidden City, but a Western-style three-story building. The building is surrounded by a pool, and the main building has nine rooms on each floor, surrounded by a corridor, and there is a three-storey hexagonal pavilion at each of the four corners.

Ye Kenan and Xiaojunwang are amazed that Yanxi Palace is built with copper, glass as the wall, and the mezzanine is a glass fish tank, swimming with countless goldfish, as well as lotus algae that imitates the aquarium, and the water light refracts the moonlight, like a dream, like a crystal clear Dragon Palace in the East China Sea.

The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs introduced: "The original Yanxi Palace has long been destroyed by fire, and the Western palace in front of us was built by the order of the Empress Dowager Longyu after the death of Lafayette and the first emperor, also known as the Water Palace, and it is also the last palace built in the Forbidden City. When Zhang Xun was restored, the plane of Nanyuan Aviation School also dropped a bomb here from the sky. ”

"This is the cultural relics storehouse?"

"This crystal palace died before the Qing Dynasty was built, and it was never really used. Thirty years ago, when the royal feng shui master Mr. Li was alive, he said that the feng shui of this place was suitable for Tibetan antiquities. Over the years, there have been too many stolen treasures in the palace, and in order to avoid losses, I ordered the treasures collected by the inner government to be managed in one place, so I chose Yanxi Palace, which is surrounded by water. ”

Inspector Ye naturally understood: "Because cultural relics are the most taboo against fire, the Crystal Palace is the most suitable place, in case there is a Zhu Rong patronage, you can extinguish the fire on the spot." ”

"That's right, Inspector Ye, I was scared to death by Concubine Zhen just now, I have to go back to the house to rest, what do you two say?"

"Lord Governor, tonight, His Royal Highness the Little County King and I will wait in this Yanxi Palace to see who the murderer is in the Forbidden City?"

"Farewell! Please take care, we'll see you tomorrow morning. ”

Shao Ying, the Minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, made another move, and slipped away under the escort of two eunuchs.

The water outside the Yanxi Palace rippled, reflecting the moonlight onto the faces of Ye Kenan and the little county king.

"Inspector Ye, did you say that you can really catch the murderer tonight?"

"What the hell knows? But I heard that Feng Yuxiang is about to make a move on the little emperor, and maybe after tonight, we won't have a chance to catch it. The detective lowered his voice and pointed to a light in the Western Crystal Palace, "There is someone inside, maybe the old eunuch on duty in the warehouse." This guy is either a thief who guards and steals, or he is about to die tonight. ”

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the palace gate......

The little king immediately became nervous, and it seemed that he was about to hit the ghost again. Ye Kenan quickly extinguished the lights, and the two of them climbed up the palace wall, hid behind the eaves of the glazed tiles, and peeked condescendingly, just like the ghostly white cat just now.

A coffin.

Five men in black coats, carrying a crumbling coffin, actually entered the palace in a grand manner.

Ye Kenan held his breath, his mind was spinning rapidly, just now the Minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs had already said that the guards of the Forbidden City had been disarmed by Feng Yuxiang, and the palace tonight could be called "undefended". The eunuchs in the Forbidden City have long since left morality, and most of them have also let this group of people in, otherwise how could the coffin fly through the wall?

The coffin was lowered at the entrance of the Crystal Palace, babbling sounds. The uninvited guests pried open the nails on the lid of the coffin, as if the tomb robbers were about to enter the most thrilling moment.

Ye Kenan, who was lying on the top of the wall, saw the corpse in the coffin by the clear moonlight.

A male corpse, unable to see his age clearly in the dark, his face was blurred, and he could only see that it was full of beard and long hair and shawl. Didn't smell of a rotting corpse, seemed to have just died, or......

The corpse opened its eyes.

Facing the crescent moon on the corner tower of the Forbidden City, the man in the coffin radiated a terrifying gaze, and a bright and dazzling blood jade hung from his chest.

Ye Kenan and the little county king both recognized this face.

He is Qin Beiyang.
