Chapter 294: Killing
Empress Dowager Deng's words were obviously suspicious of Yu Xuan.
Almost everyone felt that Yu Xuan was dead.
Yu Xuan is still very calm.
"Yes, the courtiers also think that this poisonous snake is strange, so the courtiers suggest that they investigate thoroughly.
It is necessary to carefully check all the people who have come into contact with the sedan car.
And the people who enter and leave the palace these days also have to be checked.
If this matter can't be investigated, how can the emperor and you sleep peacefully? ”
Empress Dowager Deng couldn't help but ask.
"In that case, you will have to be questioned, aren't you afraid?"
Yu Yu is righteous and awe-inspiring.
"As long as you can ensure the safety of you and the emperor, the courtiers are willing to do anything!
Anyway, the courtiers are sitting upright, not afraid of being investigated! ”
Empress Dowager Deng was speechless.
She really didn't expect Yu Yuanyuan to say such a thing.
Even Empress Wen looked at Yu Yuan without a trace, and seemed to be surprised by her reaction.
Concubine Shu secretly grabbed the silk handkerchief, and she was very nervous.
If Empress Dowager Deng really wants to investigate thoroughly, maybe she will finally find out about her head.
At that time, her trick of shouting and catching thieves will be exposed.
Empress Dowager Deng showed a thoughtful expression, as if she was thinking about whether Yu Yuan's proposal was feasible.
Shu Guifei was afraid that the Queen Mother would agree to a thorough investigation, so she hurriedly spoke.
"It's the first day of the Lunar New Year, and there are many people in the palace, it's really hard to check?
Besides, it is unlucky to spread the news that such a thing happened on the first day of the new year.
According to the concubine's opinion, it's better to turn a big thing into a small thing, right? ”
Empress Dowager Deng is also a person who has lived in the harem for most of her life, and she has experienced far more intrigues and tricks than Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu's words sounded fine at first glance, but Empress Dowager Deng immediately sensed her nervousness.
Let's contact what she just said, and Yu Yuan's reaction.
Empress Dowager Deng quickly guessed a rough idea.
She let go of the hand holding Shu Guifei: "You are not unreasonable, since the poisonous snake did not hurt anyone, this matter is over, and the mourning family does not want to make everyone unhappy on the first day of the new year because of this little thing." ”
Concubine Shu was keenly aware of Empress Dowager Deng's emotional changes.
She was a little uneasy in her heart, but she didn't say much, for fear that she would say too much.
Empress Dowager Deng looked at Yu Xuanxuan again.
This time, her gaze became much kinder.
"You are a good boy, and it is his blessing that Mozhu can marry you."
Yu Xuan said obediently: "The Queen Mother praised it falsely." ”
Empress Dowager Deng said softly.
"Your hand has just caught a poisonous snake, and it is indeed not clean.
What if you get poison on you? This is no joke.
Come and take the princess of Langjun down to change clothes and wash. ”
Yu Yuanyuan had to stand up and thank him, and then followed a palace maid out of the main hall.
As soon as they left with their front feet, Princess Tao Ran slipped out with their hind feet.
Anyway, Princess Tao Ran doesn't attract much attention on weekdays, and at this time, everyone is focused on the Queen Mother, and few people really pay attention to her whereabouts.
Concubine Shu has been secretly keeping an eye on Princess Tao Ran.
She saw Princess Tao Ran follow Yu out with her, her red lips raised slightly, revealing a smug chuckle.
Let the two women go dog-eat-dog, and she only needs to reap the benefits of the fisherman.
……
Yu Yuanhuan followed the palace maid for a while.
At first, Yu Yuanyuan didn't feel anything, but when she found out that they were going further and further, Yu Yuanyuan couldn't help but be vigilant.
She deliberately slowed down: "Where are we going?" ”
The palace maid was walking in front, and Wen Yan glanced back at her.
"The princess of the county is a little safe, and the front is here."
Yu Yuan looked ahead, it was a deep path leading to the bamboo forest, and the surroundings were very silent, and there was no one else to see except them.
Intuition tells Yu that there must be a hidden crisis ahead.
She stopped, refusing to go any further.
"You've walked so far and haven't reached yet, you shouldn't be leading the wrong way, right?"
Seeing this, the palace maid also stopped.
She stared at Yu Xuan with a threatening tone in her voice.
"The slave advises you to go forward obediently, don't toast, don't eat, eat and drink."
Yu Yuan stepped back: "Who are you?" What do you want to do to me? ”
She lowered her hands and quietly pressed the small crossbow hidden in her wide sleeve with her right hand.
This little crossbow was specially tailored for her by Xiao Ti, in order to give her self-defense, she has always carried it close to her, but she didn't expect it to come in handy today.
There are only three small arrows in the crossbow, so they can't be used indiscriminately.
Yu Yuan held his breath, staring at the palace maid's every move, secretly looking for a suitable opportunity to do it.
The palace maid obviously felt that she had won the battle.
She didn't bother to pretend anymore and smiled whimsily.
"I'm a life-seeker sent by King Yama, specifically to ask for your life!"
After saying that, she took out a dagger from her sleeve and stabbed straight at Yu Yuan!
Yu Xuan dodged sideways, and at the same time seized the opportunity of this moment, raised his right hand, and pressed the machine expand.
Whoosh!
The small crossbow shoots an arrow, which hits the heart of the palace maid!
The palace maid screamed in pain, and blood continued to gush out from the wound.
She staggered and fell to the ground.
Yu Yuanxuan immediately turned around, preparing to return the same way.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she ran out two steps, she ran into Princess Tao Ran who was following her.
Princess Tao Ran originally wanted to find an opportunity to attack Yu Yuanyuan, but who knew that she happened to see the scene of Yu Yuanyuan shooting the palace maid.
She immediately shouted, "Come on! The princess of Langjun has killed someone! ”
Yu Yuan retorted: "She did it first, I just protect myself!" ”
But Princess Tao Ran didn't listen to her explanation at all, and only shouted that Princess Langjun had killed someone, and it seemed that she had made up her mind to press the charge of murder on Yu Yuan's head.
Now that the human and material evidence is complete, it is difficult to clear the suspicion.
Yu cursing secretly.
She turned around and ran, intending to find Xiao Ti.
Xiao Ti is very familiar with the palace, he should know how to get out?
Princess Tao Ran saw that she was going to run, so she chased after her.
"You stop! You killed someone, don't try to escape! ”
Yu Xuan didn't look back, and his feet sped up.
As she turned a corner, a hand suddenly reached out from the side, grabbed her arm, and pulled hard.
Caught off guard, she was pulled into a room by the other party.
The door was quickly shut.
Yu Yuan raised the small crossbow and aimed it at the people around him, ready to make a move at any time.
"Don't shoot arrows, it's me."
Yu Yuanyu couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this familiar voice.
Through the faint light, she could clearly see the appearance of the man in front of her, it was Shen Junzhi, who she hadn't seen for a long time!
Yu Yuanyuan just wanted to open his mouth and ask why he was here?
Shen Junzhi covered her mouth, and at the same time made a silent movement, signaling her not to make a sound.
Hurried footsteps sounded outside the door.
At the same time, it was accompanied by the shouts of Princess Tao Ran.
"Someone, the princess of Langjun has killed someone!"
