Chapter Ninety-Three: Murder II

Xing'er glanced at Zhao Yi, if it weren't for Gao Yuanli's face, she didn't care what kind of county lord emperor he was, and was about to speak, but she heard Gao Yanli's cold voice: "Your Majesty, since you refused, that humble position had to be truthfully retold to the emperor of my dynasty, because the emperor of the vassal country did not cooperate, which led to the interruption of the investigation!" He was reluctant to say a word to her, even if he was the emperor of a country, he couldn't be rude to her.

"You ....." Gao Yanli's words made Zhao Yi angry, but he remained silent, although his face was cold, he had to give in, but he inevitably had a grudge against Xing'er in his heart!

Xing'er glanced at Long Xingyu coldly, and then walked straight in, Gao Yanli and Dabao bowed slightly, and followed in. The mourning hall is located in the side hall, Xing'er easily found it by feeling, the mourning hall is all white, there is a crystal coffin in the middle, a few futons are placed on the ground, and there are a few children kneeling on it, crying hoarsely, Xing'er frowned, these children, at a glance, knew that they were invited back to cry and mourn, there was not a single tear in their eyes, and there was no sad look on their faces, they only performed the crying scene hard. A subordinate explained: "It is the custom of the vassal kingdom that if a person dies outside his home, someone must cry to show his mourning, so that the soul can come back with the cry and find his relatives!" ”

Xing'er nodded, the bardo body is the most fragile soul, and only after the first seven will the soul fully know the fact that he has died. She slowly approached the crystal coffin, which contained ice cubes and a layer of mist that obscured her vision.

She gently wiped it on the coffin surface, and she could clearly see the jade-like face inside, as if she was asleep, her narrow eyelashes were like a row of fans, stained with a little frost, and under the quiet face, the beautiful facial features were as perfect as carving. The whole person was indeed as pale as if there was no blood left, and together with his lips, they all turned into the color of white paper!

Xing'er scanned her body, and the faint cold breath lingered in it, like a fishy cold smell, touching Xing'er's nerves. There was a black aura in the woman's eyebrows, which lasted for a long time, Xing'er was stunned in her heart, and wanted to reach out to pull the lid of the crystal coffin, but was stopped by Zhao Yi who came later, "Stop, what do you want to do?" Immediately, several guards rushed up, stretched out their swords and pointed at Xing'er, the dead are the greatest, no matter what, once the coffin is sealed, something happens, and the coffin cannot be opened easily, it is a great disrespect to the deceased!

Xing'er glanced at them lightly, her deep eyes had a terrifying power, her red lips opened lightly, and she said word by word: "Put down the sword!" The guard was stunned for a moment, but the sword in his hand was unconsciously put down, and Long Xingyu said sternly: "Don't you have to move an inch and disturb the deceased, but it's disrespectful!" ”

Xing'er ignored her, looked at Zhao Yi and said slowly, "Do you really want her to rest in peace?" ”

Zhao Yi's face was surprised, the woman in front of him was a little more beautiful than Long Xingyu, the aura eyes and indifferent expression made people alienated but had to be convinced, but after all, he was the king of a country, although he was a merry emperor, he was not mediocre, the woman in front of him, and the woman he usually provoked, was not the same kind of person. 0 The resentment towards Xing'er just now turned into a burst of restlessness at this time, looking at Xing'er's faint face, he became angry namelessly, as if Xing'er shouldn't be cold to him, "It has nothing to do with you whether I want her to rest in peace, the county lord has suffered misfortune in the territory of your Great Yan, no matter how you push it, it is difficult to shirk the responsibility!" Since the coffin has been sealed, there is no reason to open it again, if you insist on making it difficult for others, then please don't blame me for offending! Zhao Yi's words, in fact, are not just aimed at Xing'er, the county lord is her cousin, she has watched her grow up since she was a child, and now she is fifteen, with a pretty face, she is the most favored sister in his heart, and it is also because He Qianqian also took her with him, he is sad and sad, this is one of them. There is another reason why he has to stand firm and seek justice for the county lord! The father of the county lord is the prince of Dingyuan of the feudal kingdom, with heavy troops in his hands, although he is his own uncle, he has no disrespectful behavior on weekdays, but once he allows the county lord to be humiliated, or let Xing'er open the coffin disturb the county lord and send it back to the ears of the prince of Dingyuan, then the next thing is enough for him to choke!

Xing'er looked at Zhao Yi for a while, the dead are the greatest, since the vassal has such a custom, she will not force it, but the reaction of the emperor in front of her is a little allergic. She said lightly: "Since my relatives are against it, I naturally won't open the coffin, you can say it, you don't have to use knives and guns, let people see it, and think something is wrong!" ”

Zhao Yi's face was slightly angry, and he glanced at Xing'er coldly: "I'm going to rest, if it's okay, please step down.1" Xing'er didn't say anything anymore, just glanced at the crystal coffin thoughtfully, frowned slightly, and said to Gao Yanli: "Go back!" ”

Gao Yuanli nodded, bowed to Zhao Yi, "Humble Gao gradually leaves and retires!" Xing'er saw that Dabao looked like a great enemy, and couldn't help but smile mischievously at him, this smile fell into Zhao Yi's eyes, he looked at Xing'er's back in a complicated way, and asked Long Xingyu beside him: "Do you know her?" ”

Long Xingyu saw Zhao Yise scolding Xing'er sharply, and his heart was very happy, "She is Xiaoyu's fifth sister, and she was the regent's side concubine in the past, and after the regent ascended the throne, she still hasn't had any subordination." ”

"You're at odds with her?" Zhao Yi asked in a deep voice, "With her appearance, she doesn't even have a substile, isn't she favored?" ”

In the past, she was rude at home, relying on her father's favor and doing a lot of things that hurt her sisters' feelings. Even the identity of her side concubine is from a wrong background! Long Xingyu said disdainfully.

A hint of interest flashed in Zhao Yi's eyes, "What do you say?" ”

The emperor proposed to the fourth sister that day, but she didn't know what means she used, so she asked her father to send her to the sedan chair. Such an impostor stupid thing was naturally seen through by the emperor. The emperor cares about his father's face, so he will not retire. And the emperor has always liked my fourth sister, so he married my fourth sister a few days ago. And was canonized as a dragon concubine a few days ago. And she, I'm afraid that she has already been forgotten by the emperor! Long Xingyu said hatefully!

"I see!" Zhao Yi said thoughtfully, paused for a while and asked, "Why did she get mixed up with Gao Yanli again?" Could it be that she will also investigate cases? ”

"She only messes around, this Gao gradually leaves my eldest sister's fiancΓ©, she is entangled all day long, and I don't know what it means!" Long Xingyu sighed and said gloomily! For Xingyun, she has a little sincere care, but the sigh at this time is a show, just because she knows that Zhao Yi has always valued brotherhood, after she condemned Xing'er, of course she had to do something back to save her impression, so as not to be thought by Zhao Yi that she was narrow-minded and could not tolerate others!

Zhao Yi looked at Long Xingyu's delicate face, thinking of the ** who was good with her, he couldn't help but shake his heart for a while, holding her soft little hand, his eyes were dark gray, "Tell me slowly, okay?" ”

Long Xingyu lowered her head shyly, "Your Majesty, you are so bad!" The guards slowly retreated, made way for a road, and watched Zhao Yi and Long Xingyu hold hands and walk towards the main hall of the palace!

Xing'er frowned all the way and was silent, and Gao gradually left and asked, "Do you have a clue?" ”

"If you offend the emperor today, will he give you small shoes to wear?" Xing'er's sentence for no reason made Gao Yanli confused, "What did you say?" ”

"I said that although the emperor is not a narrow-minded person, but after all, he is the king of a country, although he is subordinate to our Great Yan, but he has their national dignity, those guards and officials see you contradicting their emperor like this, I am afraid that they will not easily spare you!" When she left, she clearly felt the murderous aura of those guards, these people are loyal to the emperor's personal guards, and these people can't be ignored too much, in this dynasty of loyalty and righteousness, loyalty is often the most powerful killing weapon, and it can stalk a person endlessly!

"Are you worried about me?" Gao was shocked in the centrifugation, and he got carried away for a while, and looked straight at her, the affection in his eyes did not dodge or dodge, like the bright sunshine under his eyes, burning people's hearts!

Xing'er's mind was not on him, she lowered her head and frowned and thought, if she looked up at this time, she would definitely be able to see the burning affection in his eyes, she said: "It's not okay to worry, you should be careful yourself!" After a pause, she asked, "Are all the victims women?" ”

Gao gradually lost his eyes, "There are a total of eight victims, all of them are unmarried women, and they die exactly the same, the murderer must be the same person!" ”

Xing'er is silent, whether the murderer is human or not, it's uncertain. The corpses were all found near Xishan, and they all had the cold and sticky aura of the snake king, so it was not difficult to speculate who the murderer was. Since ancient times, absorbing human blood, most of them are done by zombies, and there is also a saying that Maoshan also relies on absorbing human blood to expel yin qi and prolong life, but this method is poisonous and cruel, so it was strictly forbidden by the ancestors of the Long family in the early years, and destroyed all the records and documents about this law. However, the purpose of sucking human blood is to support life, so why did he break the girl's body? And looking at the county lord's eyebrows just now, a black aura has not dissipated for a long time, and it seems that someone has extracted his soul from the center of his eyebrows. The snake king naturally can't stay out of the matter, but he just does everything so publicly, isn't he afraid that she will come to the door? Or did he just want her to come to the door!

After thinking about it for a while, he didn't have a clue, but he found that a servant rushed over, arching his hand in front of Gao Yanli, with a solemn expression, "Gao Zhutou, I found a female corpse near the ten miles of Xishan!" ”

Xing'er suddenly raised her head and said, "Take me quickly!" Gao Yanli gritted his teeth and said: "This murderer is too bold!" ”

"Brother-in-law, don't be angry!" Xing'er was very calm at this time, the murder happened again and again near Xishan, and she had been to Xishan before, and knew his lair, presumably his only purpose in doing so was to lure her there.

"Let's go, let's see!" Gao gradually said forbearingly, Xing'er nodded, turned back to the stupid Dabao and said: "Dabao, you also go together, if you want to follow Gao Zhutou, you must train your own courage!" ”

Dabao's face was a little pale, but he still said resolutely: "Niangniang, I'm not afraid!" At this time, it happened to be the time when the sun was shining at noon, Xing'er looked at the determined look in Dabao's eyes, and couldn't help but feel relieved!
