Xue Lingjun said: "The emperor's condition has improved a lot. He will let you enter the palace tomorrow evening."
Hu Xiaotian thought she would ask what happened in Qichen Palace tonight, but he didn't expect that it was still about Emperor Dayong. It seems that the life and death of Princess Anping were not that important in the hearts of these Dayong royal family. Hu Xiaotian nodded and said
: "I remember, in fact, it was the fake eunuch Bai Desheng who deceived me tonight in the name of the emperor summoning me to the palace."
A faint smile appeared on the corners of Xue Lingjun's lips and said: "Bai Desheng is not a fake eunuch. He has been in the palace for more than forty years and has always won the trust of the emperor. Since you mentioned him, I will let him
I’ll come and pick you up in person.”
Hu Xiaotian said: "I don't know if it will be a fake again."
Xue Lingjun said: "Don't go with the Emperor until you see his Panlong Gold Medal." A smile appeared on her pretty face and she said: "You are really suspicious. Let's do this. I will pick you up in person tomorrow to save you so much trouble."
So much resentment.”
Hu Xiaotian said: "How dare Xiaotian complain about Sister Jun."
Xue Lingjun said: "You don't say anything, but you must be blaming us in your heart." She raised her head and looked at the gloomy night sky, and said softly: "The weather is really boring. I have been taking care of brother Huang for the past two days.
I'm very tired. Let's go back and rest first. You should go to bed early. Shi Kuan is here to help. Don't worry about anything. Just leave it to him."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Some things are better done by yourself, and you don't trust if you leave them to anyone."
Xue Lingjun giggled. She knew that Hu Xiaotian's mood would be greatly affected by tonight's assassination, so she stopped explaining any more. She waved to Hu Xiaotian and walked towards the carriage.
After sending Xue Lingjun off and returning to Qichen Palace, Shi Kuan was already carefully examining the corpses in the room where the corpses were parked. When he saw the six female soldiers who died under Hu Xiaotian's sword, Shi Kuan was secretly amazed. He didn't expect Hu Xiaotian.
His swordsmanship has actually been cultivated to such a level. No wonder Emperor Dayong sent him to escort the princess, but he didn't know that the original intention of Hu Xiaotian being selected as the ex-marriage officer was not because of his martial arts.
When Shi Kuan came in front of Li Yishui and the others, he couldn't help but frown. Li Yishui's face was smashed to pieces by Xiong Tianba's hammer, so he couldn't see his true face clearly. But the weapon he used was still there, Shi Kuan looked carefully
After checking Li Yishui's belongings, he looked at Peng Yijiang again. Although Peng Yijiang's appearance had changed a lot at this time, Shi Kuan still recognized his identity. Seeing Gu Sanniang again, Shi Kuan could basically determine who they were.
He asked about the person’s identity and whispered: “These three people are from the Banlan Sect!”
Huo Shengnan said: "You mean that evil sect that specializes in raising and using poisons?"
Shi Kuan nodded and said: "I have met the master of the Banlan Sect, Old Monster Beize, twice, and I am somewhat familiar with his top ten disciples. If I am not mistaken, this fat man should be the fifth disciple known as Poison."
Monk Li Yishui, the tall and thin man in the middle is the third disciple, blood bat master Peng Yijiang, and this woman should be Lao Qi Gu Sanniang. The ten disciples of the old monster Beizawa each have their own strengths. Poisonous monk Li Yishui is good at driving away snakes.
Peng Yijiang is the only one among the ten disciples who masters the art of insect armor, and he has a pair of poisonous pet pets of bloodthirsty sky bats. He is ferocious and powerful, and as for Gu Sanniang, her best skill is the art of disguise, which can inflict poison invisibly."
Huo Shengnan took a breath of air: "It's them!"
Shi Kuan said: "It's not unusual for Hu Xiaotian to be able to kill six of your subordinates, but he was able to kill three of Beizawa's most proud disciples. This person's martial arts scheming is absolutely unfathomable."
Huo Shengnan said: "Hu Xiaotian has reached the stage of releasing his sword energy. Although these three killers are powerful, they still cannot resist his sword energy."
Shi Kuan said: "The poison master's poisoning methods are far beyond our imagination. Although their martial arts may not be among the first-class, their poisoning methods are mysterious. Even first-class masters may fall into their hands.
Even I dare not say that I can easily defeat the three of them together." His implication was that Hu Xiaotian would definitely not be his opponent, how could he easily kill three first-class poison masters. Shi Kuan checked the fatal wounds on the three people.
, before Li Yishui was hammered to death, his neck had been strangled by a long whip. Although Peng Yijiang had sword wounds in his abdomen, his eyes had been shot with poisonous needles before he died, and the real fatal wound was on his neck.
Judging from the shape of the wounds on both sides, they should have been caused by poisonous bites. As for the wounds on Gu Sanniang's neck and the wounds on Peng Yijiang's neck, they were almost exactly the same. Shi Kuan could almost conclude that two of the three were probably
To die in the mouth of a poisonous insect is definitely not to die under Hu Xiaotian's sword.
Shi Kuan said: "Can Hu Xiaotian use poison?"
Huo Shengnan shook his head. She didn't know much about this matter. After all, there were too many things about Hu Xiaotian that she didn't understand.
At this time, Hu Xiaotian's voice came from outside the door: "General Huo! Can I come in?"
Before Hu Xiaotian could enter the room, Huo Shengnan and Shi Kuan had already come out. Shi Kuan looked at Hu Xiaotian and said, "Master Hu is back. Have all the people here died in your hands?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Basically, they are all poison masters, but after being stabbed by me, the poisonous insects they carried suddenly became crazy and went crazy, biting indiscriminately, and the three of them suddenly attacked each other.
Even I don't know how someone died." Although the explanation was ambiguous, it was reasonable. Hu Xiaotian had previously thought about cutting off the heads of the three people and stabbing them several times, but he thought of such a thing
It's not reliable. After all, the traces of trauma between a person's life and death are completely different. As long as an experienced case handler can see the flaws at a glance, it turns out that Shi Kuan is a master in this way. If he had really just
If he did this, he would definitely not be able to hide it from his eyes, and it would only be self-defeating in the end. On the contrary, this statement is more credible now. Xiyan had obviously thought of this a long time ago, so he reminded Hu Xiaotian in advance.
Shi Kuan asked: "Does Mr. Hu know their identities?"
Hu Xiaotian shook his head: "This is Dayong. If I am not familiar with the place, who can I know?" There was something in his words, implying that these three killers were related to Dayong.
Shi Kuan did not argue with him and said to Huo Shengnan: "General Huo, if it is convenient, I would like to ask some people present tonight."
Huo Shengnan nodded. Even now, she couldn't refuse Shi Kuan's request. After all, the problem was within her team. Even Yang Xuan, who was a fraternity with her, betrayed her, but she didn't know how many of her subordinates there were.
Can people be trusted? For the first time in his life, Huo Shengnan had doubts about his subordinates.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Has General Huo found out the identities of some of them?"
Huo Shengnan said: "Those three killers are members of the Banlan Sect and disciples of the old monster Beize. They are all famous poison masters in the world. If they join forces, I may not be able to deal with them."
Hu Xiaotian heard the implication of her words and smiled calmly: "General Huo means that I deserve to be poisoned to death by them, instead of the current ending?"
Huo Shengnan said: "I asked them, Zhou Mo and Xiong Tianba arrived just when the battle was about to end, and you killed three of them by yourself?"
"Is there a problem?"
Huo Shengnan said: "If Yang Xuan wants to harm the princess, she will have enough time to do it before you arrive, not to mention the three killers from the Banlan Sect."
Hu Xiaotian said: "What is General Huo hinting at me?"
Huo Shengnan said: "Can I meet the princess?"
Hu Xiaotian shook his head and said: "No!" He knew in his heart that Huo Shengnan should start to doubt Xi Yan. In fact, if you think about it a little, you will find that there are many doubts about Xi Yan.
Accompanying Shi Kuan were twelve Golden Scale Guards. Although there were not many in number, these people were all top-notch masters. Shi Kuan sent six people into the waterway to explore where the waterway led to and whether anyone else was still there.
Lurking in the waterway, the others were responsible for interrogating the people in the palace.
Hu Xiaotian watched with cold eyes. Tonight's assassination exposed too many flaws. No matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't completely clear away the doubts about Xi Yan. It was unclear how Shi Kuan saw it, but Huo Shengnan obviously
Already suspicious of Xi Yan.
After busying himself with things outside, Hu Xiaotian actually found time to take a hot bath, and then he came to the inner garden calmly. Not only because he felt calm, but also because it was really necessary to clean up the mess.
.
Just in case, Hu Xiaotian asked Zhou Mo to personally take charge of the vigilance, and no one was allowed to approach the princess without his permission.
When Zhou Mo saw Hu Xiaotian arriving, he sent a message into the secret passage: "There are people watching around you. You must be careful what you say and do."
Hu Xiaotian smiled slightly and said in a low voice: "We obviously took advantage of what happened today, but instead acted like we were thieves. You go back first. I will accompany the princess tonight. Shi Kuan is thoughtful, and maybe he will do it later."
When asking about the whereabouts of you and Xiong Tianba, you need to remind the naughty boy to answer carefully. As for Liang Yinghao..." Knowing that Liang Yinghao was injured, Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel worried.
Zhou Mo said: "Third brother, just don't worry, Yinghao has made proper arrangements. Although he was injured, it is not fatal. We just need to use the same tone and say that Yinghao left early." He paused and said: "
The real trouble is still inside." He was undoubtedly referring to Xi Yan.
Hu Xiaotian nodded with a wry smile, cleared his throat and said, "Your Highness, can the little one come in?"
After shouting twice in succession, I heard Xi Yan's weak voice saying: "Come in..."
Hu Xiaotian pushed the door open and walked in, only to see the candlelight in the room flickering red, and Xi Yan lying alone on Yao's bed. Hu Xiaotian came to her side, but saw that her pretty face still had no color, and her whole person looked extremely haggard.
Youran sighed and said: "You are such a heartless thing, you actually ignored me and left."
