Li Xuan and Yu'er were shocked at the same time.

With Princess Ankang's strokes, they did find the corresponding words on Fang Bing.

It's just that there is no special rule between these words and words, and it looks like a random order.

I really don't know if Princess Ankang can find such a piece of information in such a pile of words, because she is too perceptive, or because she is too lucky.

After Li Xuan and Yu'er were pointed out by Princess Ankang, they couldn't take their eyes off at all.

Fang Bing had a lot of handwriting all over them, but at this time, there was only that one sentence in their eyes.

"Catch the real murderer and win!"

It seems that in today's game, there is also a hidden condition for a direct victory.

"The real murderer?"

Li Xuan silently muttered these two words and looked at the situation in the ice cellar.

In addition to the royal heirs who participated in the competition, there were also their attendants.

Outside of this, there is only Zhao Feng alone.

Li Xuan suddenly discovered that there was not even a eunuch in flowery clothes in today's competition venue.

The person responsible for presiding over the game and maintaining order on the scene turned out to be only one Zhao Feng.

Looking back at the closed iron door of the ice cellar, Li Xuan couldn't help but guess:

"Could it be that the murderer is in this?"

Only conjecture shocked Li Xuan's heart, and Yu'er on the side also became nervous with her expression, obviously she also thought of this matter.

"Your Highness, doesn't that mean ......"

Yu'er swallowed and spat, and asked Princess Ankang quietly.

Princess Ankang was not afraid, and nodded calmly.

Li Xuan thought about it and felt that it would definitely not be the princes and princesses.

If one of them is a murderer, it will have a big advantage in this game.

Should I say it or not, it's just the life of a palace maid, if the winning condition is only to catch the real murderer, I'm afraid that someone will already denounce him by now.

Of course, maybe the murderer has different conditions for winning.

But no matter what, just the identity of the murderer has a lot of advantages over others.

And Li Xuan felt that the murderer might be among their close servants and Zhao Feng.

After all, that's what makes more sense.

But in this case, don't you still have to look for clues and reason?

At this time, several princes and princesses gathered around the palace maid dispersed, each going to the other place of the ice cellar to look for clues.

After the previous chaos, it is much calmer without the bears making trouble.

"Sister Yu'er, let's go over and have a look."

Princess Ankang took the initiative to say.

It seems that she has also become interested in the murder in front of her.

Yu'er pushed Princess Ankang forward and walked towards the body of the palace maid.

The other princes and princesses seemed to be focused on the matter at hand, but when they noticed that Princess Ankang was taking action, they couldn't help but be a little distracted by her.

Princess Ankang came to the corpse and looked down.

The palace maid's face was covered with frost, and she was almost unable to see her face clearly.

But I can still tell that she is very young, and she looks like she is in her early twenties.

The clothes on her body were frozen hard with her, and there were no traces of messiness.

The palace maid lay straight on the ground like a popsicle.

It's a pity that such a young life freezes to death in an ice cellar.

Li Xuan sighed, feeling sorry for this palace maid.

At this time, Princess Ankang took out her handkerchief, unfolded it and gently covered the palace maid's face.

This action caused the others who were observing Princess Ankang to frown.

Especially the older princesses, their disgust for Princess Ankang is almost undisguised.

"Pretend to be a good person!"

“……”

The soft whisper that pretended to be discussing behind her back clearly reached the ears of Princess Ankang, and naturally she couldn't hide it from Li Xuan and Yu'er.

Li Xuan coldly swept the few princesses who spoke out and wrote down their appearances.

Sometimes, they will pretend to talk behind their backs, saying their most heartfelt and vicious words to slander others.

Words hurt as much as fists, and in many cases even worse.

But Princess Ankang was used to it, and naturally ignored those words.

She gently stroked Li Xuan in her arms, and said softly and gently: "Ah Xuan, my mother told me before that when a person dies, he must close his eyes before he can return to the night sky and turn into a star. ”

"If you still look at the world, you will not want to leave because of nostalgia for the world."

"I hope that the palace maid sister can also turn into a star."

Li Xuan stood up from Princess Ankang's arms and rubbed her cheek.

He knew that Princess Ankang must have remembered Concubine Xiao.

"No wonder she's not afraid of the dead......"

The first dead person Princess Ankang has ever seen is the existence she loves the most in the world.

Perhaps, she thinks that the palace maid in front of her is also the miss of someone's life.

The heart is sloppy and careless, and the soul is cherished and passed away.

"Sister Yu'er, let's take a turn here, let's say goodbye to Manager Zhao."

Princess Ankang was no longer interested, she just wanted to see the ice cellar and leave.

Those little beans have been driven out of the ice cellar, and it shouldn't matter if they abstain on their own initiative.

"Yes, Your Highness."

Yu'er nodded and answered happily.

She also didn't want Princess Ankang to stay here for long.

Not to mention that it is so cold here, and there is a corpse on the side, which is really not suitable for staying.

Seeing that Princess Ankang was not interested in competing today, many people, including the eldest prince, breathed a sigh of relief.

The first two times made Princess Ankang win twice in a daze, but it was enough for them to feel distressed.

This time they must win the competition and get the final prize.

So far, only the eldest prince and Princess Ankang have won the prize of Emperor Yongyuan.

And the eldest prince still received the award together with Princess Ankang.

After seeing the preferential treatment of Princess Ankang when she got the prize for the first time, others were naturally very jealous.

Zhao Feng stood on the square ice, looked at the handkerchief covering the palace maid's face, and then looked at Princess Ankang and her party who were leisurely lounging, and couldn't help but show a gentle smile on his face.

Only then, he couldn't help but sigh.

Li Xuan shrank in Princess Ankang's arms, warming her while visiting the ice cellar together.

The ice cellar is very large, and it is full of neatly stacked ice cubes as far as the eye can see.

The place where they were previously located, in the center of the ice cellar.

After walking for a while, they reached the foot of one of the walls of the ice cellar.

Li Xuan turned his head and estimated the distance.

I found that the space of this ice cellar was the size of one or two football fields.

In other words, the entire underground of the Juhan Palace is the space of the ice cellar.

"No wonder it's so cold when I'm outside."

And that's just one of the many ice cellars in the palace.

This shows how extravagant the royal life was.

It is to give the royal summer vacation, and I don't know how much manpower it takes to save so much ice every winter.

Only then did Li Xuan understand that the refrigerator and air conditioner in ancient times were so extravagant.

"Technology is not enough, resources are needed."

Whether it's people or ice, it doesn't make much difference to the royal family, it's just a resource in their hands.

Today, the body of the palace maid can be a part of the game in a grand manner, and it is estimated that this is also the reason.

When Li Xuanzheng was sighing about the evil feudal society, he suddenly seemed to catch a glimpse of something in the corner of his vision.

But when he turned his head to look, there was nothing but ice.

"Huh?"

Li Xuan couldn't help but feel a little strange.

With his current strength, there is no possibility of being mistaken.

Something was there just now, and it slipped away while he wasn't looking.

Princess Ankang found that Li Xuan in her arms was staring in one direction, and while following it, she asked curiously:

"Ah Xuan, is there anything there?"

Li Xuan carefully checked the surroundings, and really couldn't find anything strange, so he could only shake his head helplessly.

Yu'er pushed them to continue walking around the ice cellar.

But there's really nothing to see here except ice cubes.

But the three little ones didn't notice that in the gap where the ice was piling up, there was a pair of cold eyes watching them.

In the end, the three little ones only made half a turn in the ice cellar and returned to the center.

The entire huge ice cellar is divided into four areas, with a wide cross-shaped road in the middle, and many narrower roads in it, neatly separated.

The body of the maid was located in the center of the crossroads.

After walking half a circle, Li Xuan understood that the chances of the palace maid freezing to death here were not great.

There is a high probability that the body was dumped in the ice cellar.

The first is the posture of the palace maid.

In order to resist the cold as much as possible, they will curl up as much as possible to delay the loss of body heat.

Therefore, Xiao Douding's previous attempt was a failure.

The second is that the frost on the palace maid's body is a little too much.

The temperature inside the ice cellar is indeed very low in order to prevent the ice from melting.

But nowhere near as cold as that.

According to Li Xuan's prediction, if someone is trapped here wearing the clothes on the palace maid, there is a high probability that the low temperature will be too low and they will die, and they will not be frozen into popsicles.

Li Xuan guessed that the palace maid might have stayed in a colder place before being transferred here.

The ice cellar only maintained the frost on the palace maid's body, not the cause of the frost.

But how did this palace maid die, Li Xuan didn't have a clue.

He was a little skeptical that there were enough clues in this ice cellar to deduce the cause of the palace maid's death.

When Yu'er pushed Princess Ankang and Li Xuan back, the eldest prince was submitting his answer to Zhao Feng.

It's just that unlike Xiao Douding before, he blocked his mouth with his hand and attached it to Zhao Feng's ear, suppressing his voice and not letting others hear it.

This is also reasonable, if others hear their reasoning and inspire other people's thinking, then it can be a wedding dress for others.

But such a method seems to be unable to hide Li Xuan.

Li Xuan is a cat, his hearing is extraordinary, and he can understand people.

Although he only heard the last few sentences because he came late, Li Xuan heard an interesting assertion.

The answer of the eldest prince turned out to be poisoning.

Li Xuan didn't hear the eldest prince's words before, but finally heard him say that the palace maid was poisoned and died.

"That's a rarity."

Li Xuan looked at the palace maid who was frozen straight on the ground, and couldn't tell that she was poisoned and died.

But with the character of the eldest prince, it is definitely not a random guess, there must be a basis for him.

He looked at the eldest prince who fell from Fang Bing after telling Zhao Feng his answer, and suddenly felt curious.

He was really curious about what the basis of the eldest prince was.

Li Xuan jumped out of Princess Ankang's arms, but when he landed, he almost slipped and fell to the ground because of the small cotton shoes on his small feet, and he had to lose his agility to stabilize his figure.

It's just that this stumbling a few steps can't help but look a little funny, and several princes and princesses nearby are amused.

Regardless of whether they had malicious intentions towards Princess Ankang or not, they were all curious about Li Xuan's little black cat.

Especially Princess Yuan'an, who was not interested in the game and just came to see Li Xuan, saw this scene and couldn't wait to rub the little black cat on the ground into her arms.

Thinking so, the movements in her hands increased unconsciously, and Bai Xiao screamed in pain.

"Meow!"

Princess Yuan'an reacted, quickly apologized, and coaxed Bai Xiao in her arms.

Li Xuancai doesn't care about other people's reactions.

He took two steps, got used to the little cotton shoes under his feet, and walked to the body of the palace maid.

The handkerchief on the corpse's face did not move, and the clothes were frozen tightly, and there were no signs of an autopsy at all.

"Hey, how did the eldest prince know that he was poisoned?"

Li Xuan didn't believe in evil and looked carefully, and the result was really something.

He found two small purple dots in his hairline behind the maid's ear.

The purple dots are the same size, juxtaposed in a straight line, and are hidden in the hair.

Fortunately, now the palace maid's hair is also frozen hard and fixed there, otherwise it would not be easy to find these two purple dots.

"Is this the basis of the Great Prince?"
