Chapter 23: Suspicious and chaotic
"Yes...... I pointed it out to him......" Wang Xiaonian lowered his head and finally said it.
"Well, I see, Mu Chengbai didn't know Ye Xiao because you met Ye Xiao, because Ye Xiao had blackmailed you, so you held a grudge, so you instigated Mu Chengbai to find Ye Xiao's trouble? Yes or no?" the prince asked in a slow and calm voice.
But this calm voice made Wang Xiaonian's heart beat sharply, and he almost fainted with fright.
“...... Be. ”
Wang Xiaonian said this word with great difficulty, and obviously felt that the eyes of the crown princess above were a little colder. Wang Xiaonian couldn't help but tremble.
"And then?"
Then the two clashed, and Ye Xiao suddenly moved and hit ...... Beat Mu Gongzi...... knocked Mu Gongzi to the ground...... Mu Gongzi ordered his subordinates to fight back, and Ye Xiao fled when he saw that things were not good...... Mu Gongzi and his party chased after him......"
Wang Xiaonian's face was pale, and he stammered as he narrated the development of things, sweating all over his head.
Ye Xiao beat Mu Gongzi and knocked Chengbai to the ground...... "The prince frowned: "As far as I know, Ye Xiao is known as the three young men in the capital, but he is just a fool who eats and waits for death...... Mu Gongzi is the peak cultivation of the Human Yuan Realm...... And with two big guards!"
He looked at Wang Xiaonian playfully: "Ye Xiao beat Mu Gongzi?
"It's... That's it..."Wang Xiaonian stammered, his whole body was almost paralyzed, and he never dreamed that he would encounter such a thing.
If I didn't want to design to frame Ye Xiao, where would I have today?
Ye Xiao, who deserves to die the most and has the least strength, has nothing to do, but Mu Chengbai, who deserves to die the most and is known as a master, is dead!
Wang Xiaonian felt that this was a big joke that God was playing a big joke on himself!
So absurd!
"Oh......" The prince nodded noncommittally, "You go on." ”
Ye Xiao fled, and Mu Gongzi and his party went to chase after him...... And then...... Then I'll go home......" Wang Xiaonian said this, and finally couldn't help it, tears poured out wildly, and he cried: "His Royal Highness the Prince...... I don't know anything about the future......"
"What did you provoke...... You provoked your hands...... And then the fight started, you actually went home like this?Now that my brother is dead, you still have to tell me that you don't know anything?!" The crown princess stared at Wang Xiaonian with resentment, and there was a thick murderous aura in her voice, which was undisguised.
"I, I, I...... Mu Gongzi wanted to kill Ye Xiao and let me avoid suspicion...... I...... The villain is also forced to be helpless...... "Wang Xiaonian snorted and cried, at this moment, he was really scared out of his body.
"Come on, pull out this bastard thing that is not enough to succeed and more than enough to lose!" The crown princess was furious, and with an order, Wang Xiaonian fainted on the spot.
The prince waved his hand and frowned: "Wang Xiaonian is only an inducement at best, it is useless to kill him, but to let his subordinates centrifuge." After all, Wang Danian is in charge of the chief guard in the palace...... Besides, I think Chengbai's death is just afraid that there is something strange. ”
"What's wrong?" the princess raised her eyebrows: "What can be wrong?"
"Ye Xiao is just a fool, he has absolutely no ability to kill Mu Chengbai!" The prince put his hands behind his back and said lightly: "This matter ...... There must be something we don't know...... A force intervened. ”
A sharp light shot out of his eyes: "This matter still needs to be investigated in detail." ”
"But no matter what, it has something to do with that Ye Xiao for sure!" The princess had a murderous look in her eyes: "My brother, you must not die in vain!" This Ye Xiao must be buried with him!"
The prince smiled bitterly and said, "This, too, also needs to be considered in the long run." Ye Xiao himself is naturally nothing, but his father Ye Nantian has a heavy army in his hands and is stationed in the northern frontier, which is the pillar of the empire! In the northern frontier, he almost covers the sky with one hand, and the current situation is tense, the countries are ready to move, the wars are frequent, and several princes in the country are also using their own means...... At such a moment, he rashly killed the son of the first general of the empire...... It's never a smart move!"
The crown princess's face turned cold: "Chen Bangguo! This can't do that, it can't work, is it possible that my brother died in vain?"
The crown prince sighed: "There are priorities, we must always think long-term and start from the overall situation...... Let's start with Ye Xiao's side to fight the situation first. If there is really a real murderer behind the scenes, he rashly kills Ye Xiao, the director dies without proof, and the real murderer is at large, which is the real reason why the eldest brother died in vain. ”
"Okay, then I'll wait for your news!" The crown princess snorted coldly, walked out quickly with a gust of incense, walked to the door, and turned her head again: "But this Wang Xiaonian should not be spared!"
"Eighty canes!" the prince frowned: "Life and death are fateful." ”
The average martial artist is punished with eighty rods, and I am afraid that he can also beat people to death. Wang Xiaonian is just an ordinary son, and his body has been hollowed out by wine, even if he has some force, it is definitely not worth mentioning.
If you really get reprimanded with a rod of eighty, you will definitely die and have no life. So the crown prince groaned again and said, "Let Wang Danian personally execute him!"
Wang Danian was executed and beat his own son...... Can it be killed?
"Hmph!" the princess snorted heavily and turned away.
The crown prince watched the princess leave, his face did not move, he clapped his hands slowly, and said, "How is the investigation?"
A man in black walked in respectfully and said, "There is basically no difference between this matter and what Wang Xiaonian said, but there are a few places that are very strange. ”
The prince frowned slightly and did not speak.
"The first strange thing is that everyone saw with their own eyes that Ye Xiao really defeated Mu Chengbai at the beginning, but as far as I know, Ye Xiao's cultivation will definitely not be able to do this. ”
Because of this, the subordinates went down to check Mu Chengbai's body and found that it was ...... His dantian was wounded, but ...... As we all know, his fatal wound was only a knife in the back. Exceptionally clean ......"
"Then, there is a problem with Dantian's injury. That's obviously ...... Before that, someone had sealed his dantian. That's why Ye Xiao could knock him to the ground...... And the person who sealed his dantian is definitely a super master!"
"Super master......" The prince muttered to himself, paced slowly, nodded slowly, and said, "And?"
"Yes, Mu Chengbai followed Ye Xiao, Ye Xiao didn't go very far, but after turning a corner, he hid and went home. Someone has seen this......"
Ye Xiao's suspicious array really had a remarkable effect.
The crown prince's brow furrowed even tighter.
The man in black said: "But Mu Gongzi still chased out, chased to a mountain, a forest and a river, and then was killed over there." Among them, there are too many things to figure out. ”
The prince nodded: "What do you think?"
"The subordinates thought that the fatal injuries between Mu Gongzi and the two guards were very smooth...... The two guards were stabbed at the same time, and one of them had his wrist broken, obviously the person who shot it snatched the knife in an instant, and killed two people at the same time! This is not like the hand of an ordinary master at all, even if it is the peak of the ordinary Earth Yuan Realm, it may not be able to do it, but it is like ......" The man in black hesitated in his eyes, hesitated slightly, and said, "...... Like a sword master. ”
"Tian Yuan Sword Realm Grandmaster!"
When the man in black said these six words, he struggled.
The prince's eyebrows raised slightly, and he slowly raised his eyelids, and said, "Tianyuan Sword Realm Grandmaster...... Are you?" A look of inexplicability flashed in his eyes.
"Yes. The man in black bowed his head.
The prince was silent for a moment and said, "So...... This matter has nothing to do with Ye Xiao?"
The man in black hesitated for a moment and said, "I can't be sure." ”
"If there are other forces that want to make a move against Chengbai, whose forces will it be? and for what?"
The prince asked thoughtfully.
In the voice, a sense of tranquility slowly took shape.
The man in black stood with his hands down, not daring to say a word.
The prince was just talking to himself, and it wasn't a question that needed to be answered. And he didn't dare to answer.
There are too many things involved.
The prince's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said lightly: "Start with Ye Xiao first, and start an investigation......"
"Yes. ”
"As for the other findings...... Hold it down for now. ”
The prince turned around, flicked the sleeves of his bright yellow robe, and left calmly.
But there was a strange look in the eyes of the man in black. After following the prince for many years, he understands best: the more the prince doesn't care about something, then, in fact, the more he cares in his heart!
He has firmly remembered.
But why should other things be suppressed?
A hint of fear flashed in the eyes of the man in black, as if he saw ...... In the near future, there will be a bloody storm above the imperial city!
There was one sentence, he didn't dare to say: Even if Ye Xiao couldn't kill Mu Chengbai, it might not be the hands of several other princes. You must know that among the eight major families, the other families also like to see Mu Cheng die in vain.
But this point, he can only press it in his heart.
......
At this moment, Ye Xiao was still sitting cross-legged, carefully feeling the process of accumulating little by little the vitality of the Jue Dantian, this feeling was his favorite feeling.
Because, it will give him a kind of 'I'm getting stronger'...... That feeling.
In fact, there is no one who is not obsessed with this feeling!?
Just when Ye Xiao felt light and drunk, the butler quietly walked in and coughed lightly.
With a prompt, Ye Xiao suddenly woke up and said, "What's the matter?"
The housekeeper looked at Ye Xiao's posture of practicing, and couldn't help but flash an inexplicable surprise in his eyes, and said, "Young master, there is one thing that you need to confirm in person." ”
"What's the matter?" Ye Xiao frowned.
"Did you kill Mu Chengbai?" the housekeeper looked at Ye Xiao and said in a straightforward tone.
A plain sentence, but Ye Xiaojie was taken aback.
With a word, Ye Xiao felt more and more clearly that the housekeeper in his family was really not simple.
And it's not easy.
