Volume 1 Newlywed Yan'er Chapter 44 Wooden Box

Xue Junwu was very surprised, and did not continue to be suspected by His Majesty the Emperor, but just drank a cup of weak tea calmly.

After that, he just talked about what ordinary father-in-law and son-in-law should talk about, and about half an hour later, Xue Junwu left the Qianxuan Hall safely, of course, he was still searched for a reason, but in the end, he really didn't find anything from him.

It seems that His Majesty the Emperor is only speculating, and there should be no substantial evidence yet.

Today, the entire harem because of the assassin, but also made people panic, Xue Junwei returned to the harem from the Qianxuan Palace, only a short visit to the queen, and then returned to the princess's mansion with Anyang.

In the moon and mist, there was a cold wind outside.

Xue Junwei took advantage of the night to leave the princess's mansion alone, the emperor had a curfew, and the entire street was empty.

Wearing a black cloak alone, he went alone to the place where he had negotiated with the crown prince when he was in the Imperial Doctor's Pavilion.

After all, the palace is full of people, and Xue Jun is worried that after he returns from the Qianxuan Palace, he will also be secretly followed.

When I came to an alley alone, and when I walked in quietly, there were already people waiting in the deep alley.

The visitor couldn't see his face clearly, not only was he wearing a night suit, but even his face was half covered, leaving only a pair of bright-looking eyes exposed.

"What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked you to give."

The man pulled out a box the size of a jewelry box from his clothes, and the voice was supposed to be a woman.

The crown prince said that he would let someone he trusted come over and return the box, so Xue Junwu was not too suspicious.

He took the box and opened it, and there was nothing else in it, just a pile of letters to and fro, each of which was yellowed by time.

When Xue Junwu first opened it in the Tai Hospital, there were only these letters in it.

He carefully counted the letters inside, and after counting, he counted them again, his hands kept moving, but his heart gradually became suspicious.

This number is not right, when he was in the hospital, Xue Junwei counted in advance, there were a total of thirty-two letters, and at this moment there were only thirty left.

In addition to him, this box was touched by the crown prince, and then there was the person in front of him.

The Ning'an Palace, where the crown prince entered with him, would definitely not let Hei Jia come in quickly when he heard him shouting.

So the only person in front of you is the one who has the problem.

Xue Junwu pretended to finish the counting, put the letters in the box, and then put them away properly, so he opened his mouth to test the other party and said, "Why didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come?" ”

"Didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince already inform you, saying that he would send me to deliver something to you?" The other party immediately responded.

Xue Junwu showed a trace of doubt on his face, could it be that this person had met with the crown prince's people in advance? Or maybe the two lost letters were left by the crown prince himself.

Seeing that the temptation failed, Xue Junwu didn't have the patience to go on with this person, so he simply wanted to take off her black scarf that covered her face: "I only heard His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say that he would let someone he trusted come here, I never thought it would be a woman, listening to your voice still sound good, it must be a beauty, let me see your face." ”

After speaking, he stepped up and reached out to pick up the black scarf, but suddenly he smelled a strong pungent smell of herbs, and he quickly covered his mouth and nose, thinking it was poisonous gas.

Seeing this, the man also immediately retreated, and behind her was a low wall, but anyone who knew a little martial arts could climb it.

Therefore, Xue Junwu, who immediately noticed that the smell of herbs was not poisonous gas, did not give her a chance, and hurriedly stepped forward to arrest her.

But in the deep night, there was a sudden bang, and a cold light appeared in front of Xue Junyou's eyes, and the blade drawn out by the other party flashed, and a sword stabbed shallowly into Xue Junwu's wound.

This sword is extremely fast, just like a poisonous snake running in the dark, not like the integrity of the rivers and lakes, but like some kind of self-created swordsmanship.

"Who the hell are you?"

Xue Jun covered his wounds and asked the man coldly in a low voice. The reason why he didn't continue to attack was because the other party didn't want to kill him, otherwise the sword that he couldn't dodge at all just now would have stabbed him in the heart.

"I don't care what you want to check, I just need to leave two of these letters."

The other party made a gesture that he was ready to move at any time, but his voice still did not change: "As for the rest of the things inside, I haven't moved too much, of course, you can believe it or not." ”

"What if I want you to keep those two letters?" Xue Junwu immediately asked.

The voice fell for a long time, but the other party did not answer, but heard the sound of placing crossbow arrows outside the alley.

Xue Jun frowned, he actually forgot about the stubble of the imperial capital garrison. This woman must have been the one who hurt him during the day.

Now he might be able to find out who they really are if he stepped forward, but he was completely unsure that he could dodge the outside crossbow arrows.

"Your Majesty already knows about the imperial capital garrison." Xue Jun said coldly.

"Sooner or later, it will be checked, but it will definitely not be checked at the moment." The other party didn't seem to think that this was a problem, but instead asked Xue Jun worriedly: "As for you, to be honest, I never guessed that it would be you who would investigate this matter." ”

"Originally, I wasn't interested. But you are so vicious that you can make such a poison that destroys humanity. Xue Jun was worried, and then added: "If you harm a woman with such a strange poison, you are not afraid of retribution." ”

"My own life is retribution, I don't care." The other party's voice changed, and it seemed that his heart also changed.

After that, I saw her swing the sword blade in her hand and stab straight at Xue Jun.

The speed of this sword was very slow, and Xue Jun saw that it was a feint, so he dodged sideways, and when he was about to make a move, the crossbow arrows outside the alley were fired.

Deep in the night alley, it rained down on them like a rain of arrows.

Xue Jun was shocked and caught off guard, were they afraid of shooting this man in black together?

The thoughts in his heart were not broken, and the rain of arrows pierced down, Xue Junwu instinctively used his arm to block it, but he only felt pain, but did not see blood.

When he came back to his senses, he found that there were crossbow arrows everywhere without arrows, and the woman in black had long since disappeared.

Xue Junwu blew away the fire fold casually, and picked up a crossbow arrow without an arrow, which was indeed a crossbow arrow guarded by the imperial capital.

Listening to what the other party said before, it seemed that it was okay to alarm His Majesty, which made Xue Junwu more and more confused.

How sure is it to dare to speculate on an emperor of the current dynasty who has slaughtered almost the entire clan.

... ...

A few days later, the city of Xuanyang made a lot of noise about the Nine Infant Capital Protector's search for the assassins who infiltrated the harem, although the momentum was huge, but as Xue Junwei heard, there was still no rumor on the side of the imperial capital garrison.

Xue Junwei couldn't see through what these big people were thinking, it was a sure thing that the emperor's garrison showed the fox's tail, but they just didn't strictly investigate.

It seems that the other party is not only a woman, but also a woman who knows His Majesty the Emperor and the court very well.

But as long as he knows these two points, Xue Junxian speculates that this person's status is definitely not low, maybe it is a princess, and the most likely is the fourth princess and Princess Lingyang, because Ma Jiu and the Marquis of Tanglin are each implicated.

But in the end, the big people swallowed their anger, and Xue Junwu was not a mediocre one.

In the past few days at Junde Academy, Xue Junwu is still learning the art of war and how to be a commander with Uncle Sikong Shi, and when he is learning the six arts, he still practices with a group of horses, and even has mingled with them, and occasionally knocks on the side of them about the fourth princess and the second princess.

Judging from their words, neither of them looks like the woman who was worried about Xue Jun that day, because the fourth princess is greedy for money and lustful, and Princess Lingyang has a good reputation, but she has suffered a lot since she was a child, so that no matter what she does, she is afraid of anything.

Today, Xue Junwu finished the etiquette class and came to Shi Quan's courtyard again.

The wooden box he got back that day was handed over to Shi Quan on his first day in college, and the two of them have been reading the thirty letters inside these days.

As for today, I have finally finished reading the only seven letters left.

Xue Junwei, who was sitting in the hall immediately, put down the letterhead full of handwriting in his hand, as if he was finally relieved, looked at Shi Quan who was sitting in the master's seat and asked, "Sir, how is it?" Did you find any clues after reading it? ”

Shi Quan was silent for a long time, slowly put down the letter in his hand, and replied: "These thirty letters, all of them were written by the main family and Princess Nanyun, there are replies and letters, and with this connection, maybe the reason behind the fire in Nanyun Wangfu sixteen years ago is the reason for the death of the main family." ”

"But that was sixteen years ago, six years more than the Gongsun Emperor's concubine."

Xue Jun sighed worriedly, the more he looked for clues, the more chaotic it became, the matter of who poisoned Gongsun Huang's concubine had not yet been clarified, and this was linked to the fire in Nanyun Wangfu sixteen years ago.

If he continued to investigate, Xue Junwu was afraid that he would be connected to the sneak attack on Dongzhou by the people of Mingguo twenty years ago, and even the bloodbath of the palace by His Majesty the Emperor.

If His Majesty the Emperor is the last villain, it will be too ruined, isn't Anyang better than dead?

"Yes, sir."

The two were silent for a long time, and Xue Junwu seemed to suddenly remember something, and asked Shi Quandao: "I remember the fire in Nanyun Palace, and the little county lord, who was originally only five years old, was also in the same room with the princess, would she know something?" ”

"Lord Hua may really know something."

Before he finished speaking, Shi Quan paused for a long time, and added: "But the Lord of the Flower County has also been speechless for a lot of time because of this matter, and it may be that the psychological blow is too big. But fortunately, King Nanyun later sent the county lord to Nanyun Nunnery and was raised by Master Zizi, but she never mentioned that period of the past, and just lived alone in a red villa in Nanyun County. ”

In other words, I can't get any useful clues from the mouth of the lord of the flower.

Xue Jun thought secretly in his heart, and suddenly felt a burst of exhaustion in his body, he just wanted to find the token of how to enter the secret secret, but he never thought about it, but he fell into a deep quagmire step by step.
