There was silence all around, except for the sound of whimpering in everyone's ears.

Pu Yangxuan immediately asked Ma Zhong to count the number of people.

Soon, Ma Zhong led a few of his subordinates to count, "His Royal Highness the King of Chu, there are many people. ”

Xue Jinyi said loudly: "Maybe there are potholes under the desert, the sand flows down, and the sound of friction, you don't need to care about that, anyway, aren't we all standing here well, haven't we been lured over?" ”

After her explanation, everyone felt that what she said made sense.

This whimper didn't kill anyone, how could it be as important as the group of assassins in front of him?

"No, Xu Tao is gone!" Someone shouted.

The crowd looked at each other as if they had just noticed.

Xue Jinyi's funny eyes scanned the crowd, everyone was acting, and those "spies" looked very confused.

"Didn't Xu Tao follow you to His Royal Highness the King of Chu?"

"Yes, I saw it, you hulala, a large group of people rushed to the room of His Royal Highness the King of Chu."

Some people knew that the King of Chu and his wife had hid in the room before and had never gone out, and they pretended to be deaf and dumb at this time, and did not reveal half a word.

Pu Yangxuan said: "I heard the sound of shaking, and took the princess to hide in the next room, for the sake of safety, I ignored any movement outside, and did not dare to come out to see until the guards subdued the assassin." ”

Ma Zhong coughed dryly, "That...... Because the situation is already very chaotic now, Xia Guan concealed one thing and planned to mention it later. ”

"What's the matter?" Pu Yangxuan asked solemnly.

Ma Zhong lowered his head a little ashamedly, "When the lower officials were counting the number of people, they found that Xu Tao died under the stairs of the building behind. ”

Everyone gasped, and a few people's faces changed slightly, and they exchanged glances.

Pu Yangxuan frowned, "What's the matter?" ”

Ma Zhong said: "According to the inspection of the lower officials, Xu Tao should have fallen down the stairs and died in a panic. There was one of his shoes on the stairs, and the scars on his body showed that he had rolled down and accidentally broken his neck. If anyone present doesn't believe it, you can follow the officials to take a look. ”

"Xu Tao is too miserable, how can a good person ......?"

"Yes, but how could such a thing happen if he didn't run around?"

"Must have been scared by the assassins......"

Everyone said a word, as if they had already concluded that Ma Zhong's words were true, and those people were not easy to say.

Pu Yangxuan raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and ordered: "Properly place Xu Tao's corpse, and when you arrive in Liangzhou City, you must find a place with good feng shui and bury him." ”

Ma Zhong responded: "Yes." His Royal Highness the King of Chu will not be disappointed, and he will definitely bury Xu Tao well. ”

Although the weather was cold, it was unrealistic to bring the body back to the capital, so it could only be buried in another country.

This Xu Tao harbored evil intentions and planned to take advantage of the chaos to kill His Royal Highness the King of Chu, but in the chaos, he was concealed by a group of them, and then the guards killed Xu Tao, who exposed his identity, and faked it as a fall to death.

This end is already the best for Xu Tao, who murdered the prince.

At this time, the guards who had gone out to investigate the Assassin's traces returned, and they also brought back a shelf made of bamboo poles in the shape of a figure of ten, on which hung a black cloth that was the same material as the black robes worn by the Assassins.

The guard said, "The behemoth that the subordinates saw at the beginning should have been disguised by six assassins with the help of this object. ”

"So everything is man-made, and you don't need to worry about it." Pu Yangxuan calmly spoke.

Ma Zhong said: "It's just, who sent these people?" ”

And they looked at each other, and they knew it.

Pu Yangxuan said: "Now that we can't find out a clue about these things, don't come to delay our energy." Go back and rest early. ”

"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison.

Puyang sighed helplessly, and saw Shen Qingmo come to him with a relaxed face.

"Why should my son be sad?"

Puyang said: "Fortunately, I didn't find out any objects related to Fengwangfu, otherwise it would have been planted on my head, and it would have been good-looking." ”

Shen Qingmo said: "His Royal Highness King Feng has high hopes for my son, and my son will not be stumped by this problem, will he?" ”

"Haha." Puyang listened to it, and his mood improved, "What Boss Shen said is that he has lived comfortably for a long time before, and he will think more seriously when he sees some problems." If those people dare to frame the Fengwang Mansion, I, Puyang, will definitely not spare them. ”

Shen Qingmo looked at the confident young man in front of him and hooked the corners of his mouth.

At this time, someone stood beside them.

"Hey, Ah Yu and Boss Shen have a very close relationship, right?" Xue Jinyi asked with a smile.

Pu Yang's heart skipped a beat, and he turned his head to meet Xue Jinyi's smile, the smile of this woman dressed in men's clothes was as delicate as a flower, which made people feel gentle and amiable.

You can't be suspicious of him, right?

He cheered up, "It's about the same age, plus Boss Shen has traveled all over the world, and there are many strange things that I have never seen or heard, so I like to hear him talk about it." ”

"Oh-" Xue Jinyi nodded slowly, "I heard about the rumors in the West Night Ancient City, Boss Shen knows a lot, if you have time, why don't you talk to us in detail?" ”

"Good ......"

As soon as Shen Qingmo spoke, he saw Xue Jinyi looking at them deeply and shook his head.

"No, no, Ah Yu came first, you talk first. When we get back, it's never too late for us to listen. ”

Shen Qingmo's eyes lit up in the depths, and Xue Jinyi looked at him in his eyes.

Sure enough, there is something in the Ancient City of the West Night, right?

Puyang hurriedly said: "My cousin and sister-in-law like it, I should give it to you first." ”

"Eh, no, no." Xue Jinyi waved her hand, her eyes went back and forth between the two of them, "A gentleman doesn't take people's favors." ”

Puyang frowned slightly, why did Princess Chu's words sound a little strange, as if he had some kind of closer relationship with Shen Qingmo?

What's going on?!

He moved half a step to the side, away from Shen Qingmo.

Although he hasn't gotten married yet, it doesn't mean he's a good man, okay?

Xue Jinyi smiled and waved her hand, "You talk, I'm going back to rest." You guys...... Rest early, too. ”

She nodded to them and took Qinglan to find Pu Yangxuan.

Puyang shivered firmly in the moonlight, and waved his hand at Shen Qingmo, "Boss Shen, rest early, I'm so sleepy that my eyelids are fighting, if you have anything to say, I'll talk about it on the road tomorrow." ”

With that, he ran to his room.

If someone misunderstands that he has an unclear relationship with Shen Qingmo, this matter will reach his father's ears, not only will he be angry, but he will also be disappointed in him and not given a heavy responsibility.

It seems that he has to stay away from Shen Qingmo, and rely on his own ability to make this peace trip as much as possible!
