Wang Xuan slowly closed his eyes and captured it carefully for a moment.
"The King of Lucheng passed away."
Hmm? King of Lucheng? How could King of Lucheng die?
He Mucheng immediately became interested. Nan Zhi's life and death in Yuzhou was unknown. Nan Zhi's sons were also taken with him. There were only a few female relatives left in the entire Nan clan in Lucheng, and the other staff were watching the two forces.
Now that we have to make a decision, it seems extremely abnormal that the King of Lucheng passed away at this time.
The ship gradually sailed away, and Ji Jiajun beside Sima Shao looked solemn for a moment.
Wang Xuan bowed his hands to the young emperor on the river, "Your Majesty, don't worry. I will send someone to inform your Majesty after I finish my investigation."
Sima Shao nodded, "Thank you, thank you for your hard work."
The ship slowly merged with the mist until it disappeared.
He Mucheng then breathed a sigh of relief and said to himself, "It's finally over..."
He Mucheng was shocked again. It turned out that Wang Xuan was not alone?
Just as He Mucheng was about to take a closer look, his eyes suddenly darkened!
There was a faint scent of woody cedar lingering in her nose, and before she could capture it carefully, her eyes were covered by a big palm.
The moment the courtyard door was pushed open, the four of them held their breath and concentrated, as if the commotion just now had never happened.
Thinking of her previous doubts about Wang Xuan, He Mucheng began to feel embarrassed again. She scratched her head and smiled flatteringly, "That... Lang Jun, I..."
Just as He Musheng was thinking this, he felt his shoulders tighten.
Under the old clothes, King Lucheng's clothes were disheveled, and an important part had been dug out by someone, which was why he was bleeding like he just saw.
Wang Xuan came back to his senses and shook his head helplessly, "A gentleman does not listen blindly."
The secret guard responded, "The lifeline should have been cut off while he was still alive. The blood is almost bleeding now. In addition, I just tried a few times on the abdomen of the corpse. The silver needle has turned black. I am sure he died of poisoning."
.”
It's Wang Xuan.
Wang Xuan called out in a low voice, "Here comes someone."
"Well, put everything back to how it was."
After nightfall, the two appeared near the mourning hall of the Lucheng Prince's Mansion.
He Mucheng narrowed his eyes and looked at the visitor.
Lucheng was Ji Yunyuan's next main battlefield, so she naturally had to find out what was abnormal.
He Mucheng sneered, Nanyue is affectionate and righteous? Is she afraid she has ulterior motives?
Sure enough, Nanyue waited for a while and saw that the person had left, so she hurriedly walked to the coffin.
After doing this, Nanyue finally stood beside the coffin.
His snow-white sleeves covered He Mucheng's cheeks, and with his clear and gentle voice, he said, "Don't look around."
"Mr. Lang, someone is coming."
Although she was wearing a veil, the look between her brows was very familiar to He Musheng. Could it be that the person coming was Nan Yue?
In fact, no matter how fast Wang Xuan moved, she still saw some scenes.
He Mucheng lowered his voice and said, "Lang Jun, how did you know that the person who died was King Lucheng?"
He Mucheng poked his head out from behind Wang Xuan, and when he saw it, she almost screamed in surprise!
I saw King Lu Cheng's lips were dark and his face was purple. He didn't look like he had died of a high fever and convulsions, but rather... he was poisoned?
But that's not the most important thing. What really surprised He Mucheng was the blood stain on King Lucheng's waist!
The blood stains looked like an artery had been severed, and the blood did not stop even after he died. Only then was he covered with old clothes that did not match his burial clothes.
He Mucheng followed closely behind.
While thinking about it, the secret guard had arrived at Wang Xuan's side. Wang Xuan glanced at the corpse. The secret guard immediately understood and raised his hand to lift up the old clothes around the corpse's waist.
"Everyone is staying away from the coffin. Looking at this situation, the King of Lucheng probably died of the plague." At this point, He Mucheng tilted his head and grinned, "This plague can only be spread through water sources.
, Sir, don’t be afraid.”
But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense. Wang Xuan has a noble status and does not know martial arts. How could the Langya Wang family let him go into danger alone?
The mourning hall was filled with the smell of burning yellow paper, and the coffin was open. Wang Xuan walked to the coffin and stood in front of it. Slowly, his brows furrowed with doubt.
She turned around and met Wang Xuan's leisurely gaze.
Don't you listen? He is noble, but he seems to be a villain...
Wang Xuan put his hands behind his hands, his expression calm, "According to the rhythm of the death knell."
Wang Xuan chuckled and nodded.
He Mucheng immediately stopped moving.
"Since Ah Yan can heal Your Majesty, why should I be afraid?" Wang Xuan said as he stepped closer to the main hall.
The four of them withdrew from the mourning hall. He Mucheng looked up and saw the thick branches of the big tree in the courtyard, so he hugged the trunk and climbed up.
He Mucheng suddenly realized that she had forgotten that when an emperor dies or a prince passes away, the death bell will play different sounds, and the length and quantity are particular. No wonder Wang Xuan had to analyze them carefully before.
"Your Highness, look at it. In the huge backyard of the palace, I, Nan Yue, am the only one willing to take a look at you."
She deftly lifted off the old clothes on King Lucheng's body, then took out the brocade handkerchief and wiped it. Perhaps when she saw that the blood flow had stopped, she took off the burial clothes and burned them.
Perhaps Wang Xuan saw her sister-in-law and didn't want to taint her innocence, so he hid his gaze from her.
After she hid her figure, she looked under the tree, and then smiled, "Mr. Lang, don't be so burdened with idols. Be more casual. Climb up quickly. Maybe you can hear something else!"
Her eyes stared at the corpse in the coffin for a long time, and finally she slowly smiled.
After doing this, he asked calmly, "What did you find?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a secret guard appeared from the darkness.
He Mucheng shrugged, "Then please avoid it, Mr. Nan. Anyway, I am not a gentleman, A Yan of the Nan family."
Wang Xuan seemed to be aware of her confusion. He gently curved his eyebrows and changed the topic, "General Ji should have returned in triumph. Should Ayan leave for Yuzhou now, or should I go to the Lucheng Palace to investigate first?"
False or true?”
Abnormalities are revealed everywhere in the palace. However, the mourning hall is even weirder than other places. There is no one around the coffin. Occasionally, a maidservant passes by, and he subconsciously speeds up his steps and leaves in a hurry while holding his breath.
There was obviously a dull displeasure in his words.
She nodded slightly to the person outside the door, and the other person hurriedly left. A gradually distant appreciation passed through her ears, "Yue Ji is really affectionate and righteous. Even if she is thinking about the past friendship, she is the only one willing to come."
Renew the wick for the prince..."
He Mucheng thought for a moment, then blinked slyly, "I will go with my husband."
Wang Xuan had already put his other arm around her shoulders, forcing her back to the coffin.
Wang Xuan sighed softly and looked around. The secret guard understood immediately, jumped up, and raised his hand to gracefully send Wang Xuan to a high branch.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw another secret guard arriving in a hurry.
Slowly, she stretched out the catkins towards the corpse, "Who told you to remain lustful and heartless, to love the one you see and to destroy the one you love..."
At this point, her face suddenly turned fierce, "If you weren't a womanizer, how could you have fallen into my trap and spent a night with the woman infected with the plague?"
He Mucheng and Wang Xuan looked at each other and wondered whether the King of Lucheng would be infected with the plague because of Nanyue?
While I was thinking about it, I heard a creepy laugh suddenly coming from the palace, "Hahahaha... Your Highness, your womanizing has caused trouble, and I care about you, so I will get rid of this dark root for you. In this way, after you are reincarnated,
