Chapter 284: Shyness
The morning sun that has not changed for hundreds of millions of years still illuminates Chiyan City, and the streets gradually become lively with the appearance of the rising sun, the shouts of bargaining and the sound of selling have gradually become the main theme on the streets, and the beggars who are not clothed have also started a new day of begging.
Compared with the lives of ordinary people, the aristocratic streets in Beicheng District are relatively quiet, except for the busy people, the nobles lie on comfortable soft beds and enjoy the last moment of peace before waking up.
But this tranquility was shattered by a shout, and a frightened maid rushed to the room where the Marquis of Lake was.
When the guards and maids along the way saw it, they all cast a look of curiosity, and after seeing the frightened look in the eyes of the panicked maid, everyone unconsciously guessed what was wrong with the other party, and some curious maids followed the girl closely, and came to the courtyard where the Marquis of Lake was, and hid in the corner of the courtyard wall to listen to the reason.
The scream also woke up the half-broken and half-awake Marquis Lake, who got up from the bed with an unhappy face, intending to punish the screaming maid outside the door, but a white arm slowly wrapped Lake's big belly from behind, and said calmly.
"Master, are you going to get up?"
Marquis Lake's annoyed face suddenly retracted, and he turned around to look at the woman with most of her white and delicate body exposed in the futon with a smile.
"There's a lot of noise outside the door, I'll go back as soon as I go."
The woman coquettishly said, "Then the old man should go back quickly, I'll wait for you here." ”
Marquis Lake wiped the woman's delicate body, which immediately attracted a coquettish cry.
"Wasn't last night enough?"
The woman said shyly, "The resurgence of the old man's majesty has exhausted me, and I feel like you are back to the age of twenty." ”
Marquis Lake suddenly laughed and said, "That's natural, sir, I have a good treasure, otherwise how can I make you want to die." ”
The woman smiled coquettishly, "Master, what kind of good treasure have you got, tell me about it." ”
Marquis Lake shook his head and said, "It's a secret. ”
Speaking of which, Marquis Lake ignored the coquettish woman, put on his clothes and walked towards the door, but when he was about to open the door, the door was knocked open all of a sudden, almost knocking down Marquis Lake.
Ryker was furious and asked, pointing at the terrified maid on her face.
"What are you doing? There are no rules in a panic. ”
The maid hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.
"Master, no, there are two bloody heads in the living room."
"What don't you have a head, are you crazy?"
"I'm not crazy, there are indeed two heads in the living room, you can go and see them."
Seeing that the maid didn't seem to be lying, Marquis Lake suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he kicked away the maid who was kneeling on the ground, and walked to the living room with an angry face, and said with a curse on his face.
"If you don't have a head, see how I clean you up."
But as Lake walked into the parlor, he immediately smelled a smell of blood, and his eyes became wary and looked in the direction of the smell.
I saw that on the table in the living room, there were two heads neatly placed, and the blood flowing out of them stained the precious carpet under the table red, but at this moment, Lake didn't care about these at all, he cautiously walked in front of the head, and after seeing the appearance of the two heads, the original panicked look was immediately replaced by a joy, and then laughed.
When the maids who followed in saw it, they all showed curiosity, but because the bloody head was too terrifying, none of the maids dared to step forward, and hid in the corner from afar to look at the Marquis of Lake, who seemed to be crazy.
When the laughter fell, Lake's expression suddenly became excited, and after reconfirming the head on the table, he ordered the head to be put into a box, and he turned and walked towards the room from which he came.
The maids did not dare to disobey the Marquis of Lake, and put their heads into a sealed box with fear, during which a woman almost vomited because of nausea, and the companions next to her also felt uncomfortable because of the sound of wanting to vomit but not vomiting.
With great difficulty, Duke Lake had already changed his clothes and walked in again, and when he saw that the head was packed into a boxy box, he ordered the guards to lead the box out of the Marquis's Palace.
At the same time, the third prince's mansion was unusually quiet, there was no one in the mansion, and the guards at the door were gone, only the closed door was locked from the inside, and there was no trace of a person through the crack in the door.
But unlike the quiet atmosphere outside the door and the courtyard, the hall of the middle gate was full of men and women, and they seemed to be dressed as subordinates of the house, and at this moment the faces of these people were full of panic, and each lowered his head to listen to the reprimand of the person sitting in the chair.
"Why don't you speak, didn't anyone see the Sacred Domain VIPs leave, didn't all of you sleep last night!"
The reprimand of the third prince echoed in the hall, but no one dared to speak.
Seeing this, the third prince's face was even more annoyed, and he pointed to the butler standing at the front and scolded.
"What about you, what did you do last night?"
When the butler heard this, he hurriedly knelt down and explained.
"Your Highness, last night, I, I, I was busy counting the goods in the warehouse, and I didn't know where the VIPs of the Holy Realm were going."
When the third prince saw the housekeeper's eyes, he knew that he must be lying.
"It's a good inventory, the VIPs of the Sanctuary don't know where to go, but what about the women? Why didn't you see any of them, and why did one of the guards die in the mansion, and how do you explain it? ”
The housekeeper also looked dazed, shook his head and said in annoyance.
"Your Highness, I really don't know, that guard was found in the garden grass this morning, I reported it to you as soon as possible, and then went to the residence of the guest of honor in the Holy Land, and I didn't see anyone at that time, and those female slaves are also missing."
"Hahaha, you've pushed it all the way, I don't have to pursue the departure of the VIPs in the Holy Domain, but what about those female slaves? Could it be that he was taken away by the guests of the Holy Domain? ”
"This, this, it's not impossible." The butler stumbled in response.
But this answer made the third prince immediately furious, and his figure appeared in front of the butler in a flash, and before the other party could react, the head had already flown out.
When the guards and maids present saw it, they were silent one by one, and there were a few less timid maids, who were even more wet and trembling with their legs.
At this time, the third prince glanced at the people present, there was anger in his eyes, but he was looking at the frightened expressions on everyone's faces, he also knew that killing more people was useless, for the sake of today, only by finding the reason for the departure of the people from the Holy Realm could the answer be solved.
Forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart, the third prince sighed.
"Listen, all of you, immediately send everyone to the streets to find the whereabouts of the guests of the Holy Realm, and notify me as soon as there is news, if you can't find anyone, don't come back."
Let's say that, the angry third prince left the hall, and the maids and guards present breathed a sigh of relief, and then left the hall one after another.
