On the bottom floor of the prison of the Ministry of Public Security, Shaodianmi, whose official uniform was stained, looked anxiously at the assassin in the cell.
Yea, the door to the cell above was pushed open, and a black shadow floated down.
"Master Ge, is there any other way?" Shao Dianmi hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.
The assassin who assassinated Shaodian Dan was lying flat in the cell, breathless. If he didn't look carefully, he would have thought it was a corpse.
"There is no other way." Ge Gang showed his body and shook his head, "There is a powerful and weird fighting spirit in his body, and even the president's fighting spirit can't block it. I think they were killed by an expert before they took action, no matter what
Whether the assassination is successful or not, they will all die."
"This is terrible! The Minister needs conclusive evidence to prove that the assassin was sent by the Yang family. Now all the clues are on this assassin. If he cannot be saved, he will die without any evidence." Shaodian was so worried that his temples grew.
A few white hairs.
"It was a premeditated action, how could there be any evidence left? I'm afraid all the missing persons in the palace are dead. The only one who may have clues right now is the queen. Just go there and try your luck."
After leaving these words, Ge Gang waved his hands and left, leaving Shaodianmi with a sad face.
On the night of the king's assassination, the queen appeared in front of Tantai Yue's palace unreasonably, and the royal family also investigated the matter. According to the story provided by the queen, a spy from the Intelligence Department reported that Princess Tantai intended to assassinate the king, and the queen deliberately
When I went to investigate, I never thought that the king had actually been assassinated.
Which spy reported it to the queen? The queen never said anything, and no one dared to question her, so the matter was unclear.
Shaodian secretly inquired about the new year's heir, but the head of the intelligence hall could not give a clear answer. There were so many spies in the capital, and it was possible that anyone was close to the queen. Or the queen sent someone to kill a spy and then framed him. This was also possible.
of.
"Damn it, the matter of Princess Nangong has not been fully investigated yet and the Queen is still being investigated, does that mean that Princess Tantai should also be investigated? Why don't we let the new king succeed to the throne earlier? If someone takes my place, I won't have to worry about these things.
No, Shao Dianyin died, and everyone in his family blamed me. I have to hold on until my mother is safe." He was left in the cell talking to himself.

In Xincheng, the bored Shaodian Luan followed Ding Kui to inspect the construction site. From time to time he asked a bunch of questions, and then listened to Ding Kui's explanations with half understanding, never showing any impatience.
Tat-tat-tat, the rapid sound of horse hooves came from far away, and it sounded like they were heading straight to the construction site.
Ding Kui sent the craftsmen away and looked at the way he came. He vaguely saw a knight wearing the uniform of an outpost officer running towards him. The guards of the new city obviously recognized the knight and did not stop him, allowing him to pass unimpeded. When the knight approached,
At one o'clock, Ding Kui recognized that it was Shao Dianye who was sent to the capital to collect military pay, and his heart skipped a beat.
"Hey, what's supposed to come is coming. That news can't be kept hidden forever."
He reached out and pulled his wife, bringing her closer to him.
I saw Shao Dianye running dozens of steps closer to Ding Kui. He immediately tightened the reins and dismounted from his horse. He trotted all the way with red eyes and knelt down in front of Ding Kui.
"Your Majesty, I have fulfilled my mission and have received all my military pay. However, I would like to ask you to be extra gracious and allow me to return to the capital city for the funeral."
"Alas, what happened to your father is so disappointing! Don't worry, I have my own arrangements, and I will go to the city lord's palace first to wait for orders."
Ding Kui helped Shao Dianye up with his own hands, and Shao Dianye thanked him again and again, feeling half relieved.
Shaodian Luan was savoring the conversation between the two, and she was filled with doubts. She knew who Shaodianye's father was, and combined with their expressions and her husband's recent abnormality, the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.
"Are you hiding something from me?" She took a step back and said, putting her beautiful hands into her sleeves and clenching her fists, her voice trembling slightly.
Ding Kui let out a long sigh, turned around to face his wife, put his hands behind his back, and said, "I want to ask you one thing first. Don't get excited. No matter what happens, I will stand by your side."
Shao Dian Luan closed her mouth tightly, her breathing gradually became heavier, and she had a premonition that what her husband was going to say next was definitely not a good thing.
"It's not that I deliberately concealed it. The point is that the matter is very involved and I haven't figured out how to deal with it yet. Your father, the king of Shaodian Kingdom, was assassinated and died a few days ago."
Huh, Shaodian Luan's fighting spirit armor rose from all over his body, and a gust of wind came out around him.
"What kind of person, father, king, has such a poisonous hand!" She gritted her teeth and said each word.
She has a gentle personality but still has the perseverance of the Shaodian clan. When she first heard the news of her father's death, she felt sad, but she could withstand such a shock, but her strong desire for revenge could not be suppressed.
Ding Kui felt distressed and nervous when he saw his wife's appearance. He was afraid that the fire in her body would burst out and he would not be able to suppress it. "I swear, I will do my best to help you kill the mastermind! If you break your promise, there will be a stone like this!"
After saying that, he stepped on an ashlar stone that was to be used for building a wall. The ashlar stone couldn't withstand the kick, and it shattered into countless pieces with a "click" sound.
A drop of crystal tears flowed out from the corner of Shaodian Luan's eyes, passed through the fighting spirit mask, and dripped down her face from her chin. Ding Kui's hands moved around her a few times, and he couldn't find any space to help her.
"Luan'er, relax, the enemy is not here, don't hold yourself back."
Shaodian Luan knew that what her husband said was reasonable, so she began to try her best to control the fighting spirit churning in her body, and put away her fighting spirit armor little by little.
It wasn't until the fighting spirit armor completely disappeared that Ding Kui dared to hold Shao Dian Luan's shoulders and said softly: "Cry if you want. After you cry, I will accompany you back to the capital to see your father off for the last time."
"Wow!" Shao Dian Luan then threw herself into Ding Kui's arms and cried loudly, crying until she burst into tears, pear blossoms dripping with rain, her heart broken, completely regardless of whether there were other people around her.
Ding Kui had already cleared the place, and there was no one else within sight, only the couple hugging each other.

"Fart!" Shao Dianhuan cursed while pointing at Shao Dian's nose in the forbidden area of the palace.
The dignified president of the Knights Association, a legendary knight with seventh-level combat power, remained silent in front of the royal guardian, not even daring to breathe.
"Obviously it was Yang Kui who was behind this. How dare they blame the Tang family? Did Yang Kui not even care about the dignity of the epic knight?" Shao Dianhuan did not hide his emotions at all.
"But the news coming from Xihai Prefecture is indeed true. Shaodianpi has arranged for his men to rush the evidence provided by the Yang family back to Zhenjing City." Shaodianshi didn't understand why this ancestor was so angry.
Shaodianhuan did not tell anyone about Yang Kuai's invasion of Lingyuan County. It was said that Yang Kuai's behavior was related to his bullying of Yang Kuai back then.
"Then what exactly did Shao Dianpi say?" Shao Dianhuan frowned.
