Chapter 9: Behave in the Palace

Everyone understood that Wu Yuan was not exaggerating in saying that the murderer was a colleague.

Otherwise, he would not have committed such a murderous act, so Wu Yuan did not have too much explanation for this.

Now, both the guards and the officials of the Ministry of Justice were curious about who the murderer was.

It's so awesome that he kills people and still dares to stay here.

But if all this is true, it makes people shudder to think about it.

The most dangerous place is the safest. If there was no Wu Yuan, no one would know about the murderer or that his colleagues are still here.

Xin Ruyan suppressed the excitement in her heart. At this moment, her heart was surging, and she felt that all this was so incredible.

It felt as if the corpse was really talking, telling Wu Yuan everything.

And now, as long as the murderer is caught, it will be enough to prove that everything Wu Yuan said is true.

You Dequan was still making noise there, but this made people more suspicious of You Dequan. You Dequan really seemed to have a guilty conscience and was covering up the murderer.

Wu Yuan saw that the atmosphere was almost complete and the scene was about to end, so he asked: "Who is the second person to arrive here?"

Among the guards, someone responded immediately.

"Back to Your Highness, I am the second one. To be precise, this brother and I are on duty here, and we both came here together."

Wu Yuan nodded, "Very good, then please point out who was the first person here? That person is the murderer."

The guard was stunned for a moment, and then he and his brother looked at a guard on the edge.

Before anyone else could react, that person immediately ran away.

This time there is no need for Wu Yuan to waste his words, this person is not asking for it.

Xin Ruyan was surprised and happy, and immediately ordered to chase him.

All the guards also reacted, but the one who moved the fastest was Zhang Kui.

"Sister Ruyan, just stay here. Leave this person to me."

After saying that, Zhang Kuiren rushed out with terrifying speed.

Seeing this scene also gave Wu Yuan a deeper understanding of kung fu in this world.

The level is comparable to that in martial arts movies, which is not good news for him.

At this time, Xin Ruyan saw that Wu Yuan was studying the corpse on the ground as if no one else was there, and asked in confusion: "We have already gone to arrest his colleagues, what do you want to see him do?"

Wu Yuan observed the dead man's hand, and then asked Xin Ruyan: "You see there are thick calluses on his tiger's mouth. Is it caused by practicing martial arts?"

Xin Ruyan is a master, so he should be able to see something.

However, Xin Ruyan denied Wu Yuan's guess, "This is not from practicing martial arts, but from holding a knife for many years."

"Holding a sword all year round?" Wu Yuan was surprised.

Xin Ruyan had a flash of inspiration.

But just when she was about to tell Wu Yuan what she had discovered, she saw Wu Yuan's eyes telling her not to tell her.

Xin Ruyan was also a smart person. She immediately knew that Wu Yuan was on guard and did not dare to say anything at the moment.

But the eyes that looked at Wu Yuan were filled with admiration.

Is Wu Yuan, who is so thoughtful, really the abandoned prince she knows who only knows about debauchery and pleasure?

It’s just that he can compose poetry, but he can even do autopsy.

Although she did not understand the autopsy, she understood that it was not something she could do by hearsay or with only a superficial knowledge.

"You..." Xin Ruyan just started.

There was a commotion in the distance.

Seeing that the murderer had been captured alive, Wu Yuan gave Zhang Kui a meaningful look.

To be fair, when I saw Zhang Kui rushing out just now, I thought he wouldn't survive.

No matter how Xin Ruyan feels about Zhang Kui, he is definitely not a good bird here.

You Dequan, on the other hand, seemed a little flustered when he saw the man being captured alive. Although he tried his best to hide it, anyone with a discerning eye could still see that You Dequan was abnormal.

Zhang Kui threw the person over, "Fortunately, I have caught him. Let's see if there is anything we can ask."

Xin Ruyan also nodded, and then looked at Wu Yuan. Since it was Wu Yuan who found out this person, it would be better to leave it to Wu Yuan to ask.

But this time, Wu Yuan was uncharacteristically shaking his head and refusing.

"In the final analysis, the handling of this case is still the matter of the Criminal Department. Since the person has been arrested and is still alive, I believe the people from the Criminal Department will do something."

Wu Yuan's words caught everyone by surprise.

I really can't understand that Wu Yuan, who wanted to examine the body, could not be stopped by all kinds of obstacles just now.

Now, Wu Yuan was asked to continue his investigation, but he showed a lack of interest.

Xin Ruyan also couldn't figure out why Wu Yuan was doing this, and what he had discovered just now, it was clear that he could pinpoint the mastermind behind the scenes.

Why did you pass up the great opportunity?

However, Wu Yuan insisted on this, clapped his hands, walked up to the murderer and said calmly: "Sad, I sympathize with you for a second, and wish you good luck."

The man's originally malicious eyes suddenly became filled with uneasiness.

Just when he was about to say something, he heard You Dequan shouting: "If no one comes, take this murderer down and torture him severely."

The man's uneasy eyes were full of fear.

Unfortunately, he was forcibly taken away by the officers.

You Dequan wiped a cold sweat and lost his previous arrogance. He was afraid that Wu Yuan would regret it, so he hurriedly said, "I will find out as soon as possible and give His Highness Wu Yuan an explanation."

After saying that, he quickly left.

Zhang Kui glanced thoughtfully, but said nothing.

Instead, he said in a high-sounding voice: "Your Highness Wu Yuan, Sister Ruyan, you have been frightened."

Wu Yuan said: "I don't care what the relationship between you sworn brothers and sisters is. This is a palace, so we must abide by the rules of the palace."

Zhang Kui stared at Wu Yuan with burning eyes, like a volcano that could erupt at any time.

But in the end, he still lost his temper and said solemnly: "It's His Highness Wu Yuan."

Then he saluted Xin Ruyan and said, "Madam, please forgive me for my rashness."

Normally, Xin Ruyan might not give Wu Yuan face, but today, she couldn't say a single word to contradict Wu Yuan.

He could only comfort Zhang Kui and said: "It's nothing? You should pay attention in front of others."

Zhang Kui looked at Xin Ruyan with a surprised look on his face. He knew very well that Xin Ruyan did not like Wu Yuan, let alone the position of the Crown Princess.

But his current attitude made him feel heartbroken.

Wu Yuan smiled proudly, and then greeted: "Ruyan, let's go back."

Xin Ruyan now has a lot of questions that she wants to ask Wu Yuan for, so of course she won't refuse.

But seeing Xin Ruyan about to leave, Zhang Kui became anxious.

"Mei Ruyan... Madam, I just told you that I have a few poems here, and I would like to see Madam to taste them."

Xin Ruyan had almost forgotten about it, but she was really not in the mood to listen to any poetry at the moment.

Also, Wu Yuan, who was a good poet, was still here. She didn't want Zhang Kui, her sworn brother, to be hit, so she said, "I'm tired today, let's try another day."

Unexpectedly, Wu Yuan jumped out and said, "Don't mention it. It's better to choose a day than to hit it. It's good to write poems. Let's start walking in the garden."
