After Murong Xuan left Prince Chen's Mansion, he walked towards the city gate. The streets were crowded with people watching the excitement, and the city gate was also surrounded by people. The people were all talking, and every guard guarding the city was busy.
There was a person standing three feet away to prevent the people from approaching the city gate.
The shopkeeper's body has also been put down and sent to the morgue, but the people watching the excitement still refused to leave. They gathered around the city gate and whispered, spreading rumors.
Murong Xuan walked through the bustling city gate and came to a city guard. After some inquiring, he explained that the deceased was a worker in his shop, and then the city guard led him to the morgue.
In about a quarter of an hour, the city guard led Murong Xuan to the so-called morgue. The morgue was not in the city, but in a desolate place outside the imperial city. The city guard pointed to a house in front of him.
Said: "The body has just been delivered, you go and order it!"
Murong Xuan nodded to the city guards, looked around without trace, and then walked towards the morgue. When the two guards guarding the morgue saw someone coming to collect the body, they took the initiative to open the door. They naturally
I hope someone can take away all the corpses inside so that they don't have to face a bunch of dead bodies when they arrive.
After Murong Xuan entered the morgue, he quickly found the body of the shopkeeper. He opened the mat on which the body was rolled and wanted to confirm how the shopkeeper died.
The shopkeeper's face was deathly pale, his lips were not purple, it was not due to poisoning, and there were no wounds on his body. Only the bruise on his neck had a strangulation mark. It was obvious at a glance that it was left behind after the person died and was hung high with a rope.
of strangulation marks.
After only some investigation, Murong Xuan was sure that the shopkeeper did not die from poison or sharp weapons, but was killed by someone using his internal force to shatter his internal organs. He secretly used his internal power with his hands and asked the shopkeeper
He pressed his swollen belly, and immediately a stream of blood overflowed from the shopkeeper's mouth.
Not only the mouth, but also all the seven orifices were bleeding. The sight of bleeding from the seven orifices was terrifying and frightening. The guard on the side was so frightened that he could not help but step back. He glanced at Murong Xuan in horror, and then left angrily.
Corpse room.
Murong Xuan withdrew his inner strength and rubbed his nose. Fortunately, it was winter, and the blood that overflowed from the shopkeeper's abdomen did not smell bad yet.
But the stench of the fishy place was also nauseating. Murong was nauseated by the stench. He had seen too many bloody scenes, but he was a person who loved cleanliness. Seeing the turbid blood with broken internal organs, it was inevitable that he would feel sick.
Feel disgusting.
He walked out of the morgue and came to the two city guards. He took out fifty taels of silver from his sleeve pocket and handed them to the two city guards. "Please buy a better coffin and bury the body in it," he said.
, the remaining silver will go to the two of you for your hard work."
The two city guards looked at fifty taels of silver and quickly responded with a smile. A coffin only costs a few taels of silver. What good coffin can an ordinary person use? At most, twenty taels of silver can be worth the weight of the sky. The rest
The thirty taels were divided between the two of them. The money they earned was worth it!
Murong Xuan left the morgue after getting the response from the city guards. He knew that the person who killed the shopkeeper must be secretly observing who would come to collect the shopkeeper's body. Since they wanted to lure out Ming Yuexuan's boss, they
Someone will definitely be stationed around the morgue, and his appearance will undoubtedly attract the attention of those people.
After he confirmed that the shopkeeper died due to internal force, he may also be sure that the person who killed the shopkeeper had martial arts skills belonging to the upper class and had extraordinary internal power. Otherwise, it would be impossible to use internal force to break the meridians of the shopkeeper's internal organs and shock the shopkeeper.
With such internal strength, he is definitely not an ordinary person.
After leaving the morgue, Murong Xuan came to Ming Yuexuan and saw that the door of Ming Yuexuan was tightly closed. There were several waiters standing in front of the door, as well as storytellers, tea masters and chess masters. He walked up to these people and said, "
Today, it is business as usual." He unlocked the door of Ming Yuexuan and pushed in. "I will take over the position of shopkeeper for the time being. Whatever you do on weekdays, I will do it today."
Several people looked at each other with doubts. They didn't know who the boss was. They just knew that the boss was a woman as beautiful as a fairy, and Ming Yuexuan was always managed by the shopkeeper, so the key to Ming Yuexuan's door was also there.
Only the shopkeeper has it.
The handsome man in front of them was no stranger to them, but at this moment, they were surprised to see the handsome man's actions and words, as if he was Ming Yuexuan's boss.
And he still has Ming Yuexuan's key in his hand, so he is not Ming Yuexuan's boss. Then there is only one possibility, he is the person who killed the shopkeeper. Otherwise, how can he explain the key in the hand of the handsome man.
Thinking of this, several people exited Ming Yuexuan's door one after another, not daring to approach the handsome man in front of the counter, for fear that they would be killed by the handsome man as soon as they entered Ming Yuexuan.
Murong Xuan leaned in front of the counter, looked at the frightened clerks, frowned slightly and said: "Don't be nervous, this key is not the one in the shopkeeper's hand, it belongs to Ming Yuexuan's boss, I am Ming Yuexuan
My boss, the woman you met before is just one of my subordinates."
When several people heard Murong Xuan's words, they were slightly stunned and looked at each other, obviously questioning Murong Xuan's words. Although they didn't know who the boss behind him was, from the beginning, they all knew that their boss was a woman and definitely not a man.
.
"I know you won't believe it, but you can't help but believe it when things are before you. Ming Yuexuan is a property of the Murong family. I believe you have all heard of the Murong family. I am the successor of the Murong family, Murong Xuan."
Murong Xuan said, took out his seal and threw it to several clerks, "See clearly."
One of the clerks took the red bloodstone seal and looked at it carefully. Sure enough, at the bottom, he saw the word "Xuan". Several people looked at each other again and looked at Murong Xuan. One of them asked: "
Are you really the master of Murong Shao Village?"
Murong Xuan raised his lips and smiled, "Do you still remember a few months ago when a group of people came to smash up the store?"
"I remember, it was Mr. Yao's subordinate who came to make recommendations. However, he was beaten away by a young man later." Another clerk recalled: "I remembered that that young man defeated that gang of people that day.
Later, I mentioned the Murong family's property, and after the gang of people who smashed the shop left, it didn't take long for them to send money to compensate for the damage."
"I also remember this." The old storytelling gentleman on the side rubbed his chin and said: "That day, I was on the storytelling stage and heard clearly that the young master said that Ming Yuexuan was the property of the Murong family.
After that, Master Yao not only stopped making trouble, but also ordered someone to pay one hundred taels of silver to compensate for the loss."
"Very good, just remember it. You won't have any doubts from now on!" Murong Xuan stepped forward to take back his seal, "Be more alert and smart when doing things under my eyes, and get to work."
At this time, several shop assistants put aside their doubts. Besides, several people often came to the teahouse to drink tea and play chess with Murong Xuan. Looking at his dress, conversational temperament, and gestures, they all showed nobility and freedom. He did not look like an ordinary person.
.
Moreover, there are rumors in the world that the young master of Murong Villa is a man with a jade tree facing the wind, handsome and elegant, one of the most handsome men in the world. Although a few people have never seen him, but when they see the handsome young man in front of them, they will react to his words.
There is no doubt, not to mention, he still has a seal that symbolizes his status.
