Xi Yan's nose became sore, and she felt that Hu Xiaotian had never been so kind to her since she met him. This shameless thing deliberately said such words to impress himself, thinking that he could coax me to obey. He really thought that I was a little inexperienced person.
A girl? Xiyan finally calmed down the turbulent emotions in her heart, sighed softly and said, "I'm very tired and don't want to talk to you. You can go out."
Hu Xiaotian felt like a hot face pressed against a cold butt again. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. He remembered something and took out a small bottle from his arms, which contained the Guiyuan Pill given to him by Qin Yutong. Hu Xiaotian said
: "You are injured, why not take a Guiyuan Pill first, it will be good for your injury."
Xi Yan said coldly: "I won't eat what the witch gave you."
Only then did Hu Xiaotian think of all the discord between her and Qin Yutong. He was secretly wondering, but he didn't know how Xiyan knew that the Guiyuan Pill was a gift from Qin Yutong. It was probably Xuantian Pavilion's secret pill.
, so she came to this conclusion. If she had known this, she should not have reported the name of the medicine.
Hu Xiaotian shook his head helplessly, placed the vial containing the Guiyuan Pill on the bedside table, and whispered: "You rest first, I'll go out and deal with the scene."
Xi Yan reminded him: "It's best not to dispose of the corpses, otherwise it will be self-defeating. You only said that poisonous insects came back and caused their deaths. Anyway, there is no proof of death."
Hu Xiaotian didn't recognize the corpses outside. What he really cared about was Yang Xuan. Yang Xuan's legs were cut off by him with his sword energy. Because he was in a hurry to come to the rescue, he didn't have time to interrogate him. After all this time, he didn't know that Yang Xuan
Has Xuan bled to death?
Hu Xiaotian returned to his courtyard and took a look. Several corpses were still there, but Yang Xuan was nowhere to be found. Only her broken legs were left on the ground. It was said that these legs were in good shape, but they were so ugly when they were growing on her body.
Sexy, if you cut it off, it will lose any sense of beauty. No matter how beautiful something is, it will lose its beauty once it loses its vitality. Hu Xiaotian secretly wondered. Yang Xuan's legs have been broken. Logically speaking, it is impossible to escape too far, so she might hide it.
Somewhere in Qichen Palace, while he was searching the surroundings carefully, Huo Shengnan received the news and rushed back.
The night rain had stopped, and the tragedy of the scene far exceeded Huo Shengnan's imagination. Six of the female soldiers she arranged in Qichen Palace were killed, and her most trusted subordinate Yang Xuan was missing. There were three corpses at the scene. This
Three people, among whom the woman is the killer pretending to be the palace maid Cailan. The other two are quite strange to her.
Huo Shengnan's face was solemn. Although she had witnessed the situation in Qichen Palace with her own eyes, she still did not want to believe that Yang Xuan would betray her. The reality forced her to face this problem. Eight female soldiers on duty were also missing with Yang Xuan. These eight people
They are also suspected. The other officers on duty did not know the specific situation. Although many people participated in following Yang Xuan to chase Hu Xiaotian, they only obeyed the general's orders.
Huo Shengnan looked at the two stumps on the ground. They were part of Yang Xuan's body, but Yang Xuan was missing. She bit her lips and ordered: "Send an order to search for Yang Xuan and those people throughout the city."
As for the whereabouts of the eight female soldiers, we focused on searching major medical centers and pharmacies. She was so seriously injured that she could not walk far."
"yes!"
Huo Shengnan came to the front of the six dead men again. Their bodies were cut off by the sword energy. Although he did not witness the situation with his own eyes, Huo Shengnan could imagine the power of the sword at that time. He watched those people lose their life luster.
Faces. Huo Shengnan's heart was extremely complicated. These were sisters who had been with her through life and death. But they betrayed her for some unknown reason? Looking at their faces, Huo Shengnan felt heartbroken. She bit her lip and said: "
Mr. Hu’s swordsmanship is so powerful!”
Hu Xiaotian said: "If you want to save your life under the siege of General Huo, you can only do your best."
Huo Shengnan gave him a cold look: "Can you give me a reasonable explanation?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Xiaotian is also very confused. I want General Huo to give me a reasonable explanation. Why did General Huo go to Ci'en Palace tonight?"
Huo Shengnan frowned and said, "Are you doubting me?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Don't dare! Xiaotian will not doubt anyone based on suspicion. It's just that such a big thing happened in Chen Palace tonight. Her Royal Highness the Princess was injured, and Xiaotian almost lost his life, so I have to
Find out."
Huo Shengnan bit his lip and said: "Yang Xuan has followed me for many years, and she is like a biological sister to me. I have never doubted her..." When she said this, her heart was in extreme pain, not only because of being raped.
Yang Xuan betrayed her, and she was worried about Yang Xuan. Although Huo Shengnan didn't want to admit it, she still couldn't be completely ruthless towards Yang Xuan, a sister who loved her brothers and sisters.
Hu Xiaotian said: "If General Huo sends people to the vicinity of Xingyuan Bridge, they should be able to find three corpses. All three of them were killed by me. The leader of them claimed to be Bai Desheng, the eunuch who was responsible for the ceremony. They wanted to deceive me into a
I eradicated them in a remote and uninhabited place. There should be some of their accomplices there. Fortunately, I discovered the flaw on the way and I killed them. Only then did I realize that these three people were not eunuchs at all."
Huo Shengnan nodded.
Hu Xiaotian said: "That's when I realized that there was something wrong with Yang Xuan. Since she asked me to follow these fake eunuchs, it proved that she recognized Bai Desheng's identity."
Huo Shengnan said: "So you rushed back here immediately after killing them?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "After I came back, Yang Xuan wanted to kill me. I was forced to kill him. When I rushed into the inner garden, I happened to see these three killers trying to kill my princess. The most disgusting thing is
Yes, the little palace maid Cailan turned out to be an old lady, and she must have been sneaking into Qichen Palace for a while. I thought you had taken enough precautions, but I didn't expect that there would still be such a big oversight."
Huo Shengnan was silent. She had nothing to say in front of the facts. Cailan had been lurking in Qichen Palace for so long and she didn't find any flaws. This incident proved that she had many loopholes in prevention, and she never thought about her own.
Someone in the sister gang will betray him. He whispered: "How did the two killers get in?"
Hu Xiaotian pointed at the fountain. The underground passage had been exposed. Li Yishui and Peng Yijiang climbed up from the underground passage. Just now Zhou Mo had quietly told him that they found Liang Yinghao near the entrance of the underground waterway. Liang Yinghao was attacked.
, finally escaped, but he was also seriously injured. They had properly placed Liang Yinghao. Of course, Hu Xiaotian would not tell Liang Yinghao about digging the hole.
Huo Shengnan nodded and said: "Mr. Hu, don't worry, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation of what happened tonight." He looked at Princess Anping's room and whispered: "How is the princess's condition?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "She was a little frightened, and she has a fever because of the rain. Her mood is not stable. She doesn't want to see anyone except me now."
Huo Shengnan said: "Please, Mr. Hu, please apologize to the princess on my behalf."
At this time, a female soldier came to Huo Shengnan and bowed to report: "To General Huo, the eldest princess is here."
Huo Shengnan was slightly startled. What happened here had alarmed the palace so quickly.
The eldest princess, Xue Lingjun, did not come alone. She was accompanied by Shi Kuan, the commander of the Golden Scale Guards. Worried that the tragic situation of the deceased would disturb Xue Lingjun, Huo Shengnan had someone move the body to a room in the front yard in advance.
Hu Xiaotian and Huo Shengnan welcomed Xue Lingjun into Qichen Palace together.
The eldest princess Xue Lingjun originally wanted to see Princess Anping, but after hearing Hu Xiaotian mention that her current condition was not stable due to being stimulated, she had no choice but to give up the idea. Although she and Hu Xiaotian had long been treated as siblings in private,
This time he came on behalf of the Dayong royal family, so he still had to do some superficial work. Xue Lingjun sighed and said: "Master Hu, I'm really sorry that such a thing happened. Don't worry, we will definitely investigate this matter to the end, and we must give it to you."
A satisfactory explanation from your country."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, we don't have to explain. We just want her to be safe and sound. To put it bluntly, when her princess marries Dayong, she will be a member of Dayong. In Yongdu, in Qichen
How can we rest assured that something like this still happens in the palace?" Hu Xiaotian began to purposely shirk his responsibilities. Clearing himself would be equivalent to passing all responsibilities to Dayong. This is for his sake in the near future.
Prepare for departure later.
Shi Kuan said in a deep voice: "Mr. Hu, the matter has not yet been clarified. It is difficult to say where these killers came from."
Hu Xiaotian said: "What does Commander Shi mean? Why can't I understand?"
Shi Kuan said: "Mr. Hu, please don't misunderstand me. Shi is not trying to shirk responsibility. It's just that this matter comes at a strange time. With the marriage between Dayong and Dakang, I don't know how many people in the world will pay attention to this matter. Likewise,
There will also be many people who want to disrupt this marriage and sow a wedge between the two countries. So until the matter is clarified, it is difficult to say where these killers come from."
Hu Xiaotian said: "What Commander Shi means is that if we can't find out who ordered these killers, then we will have to consider ourselves unlucky."
Shi Kuan said: "Master Hu, please have more confidence in us. Everything will leave traces."
The eldest princess Xue Lingjun said: "Commander Shi, you are responsible for helping to find out this matter. Also, there are only five days until the wedding. We must ensure that the same thing does not happen again."
"Yes!" Shi Kuan bowed and accepted the order.
Xue Lingjun glanced at Hu Xiaotian and said: "Master Hu, come out and see me off!"
Hu Xiaotian was depressed in his heart. With all the worries on my head, how could I be in the mood to see you off? But he also understood that Xue Lingjun must have something to say to him alone, so he followed Xue Lingjun to the door. Xue Lingjun did not walk towards the carriage, but
I walked slowly towards the deserted place ahead and stopped under an ancient locust tree.
Hu Xiaotian followed and said softly: "Sister Jun, what do you want to ask me about?" (To be continued)
