Zhumen Hangui

Come one step later

After a while, the two guards who went in came back.

"Master, when I went in, I saw candles burning inside. We looked, and it should be Zheng Shounian."

"Master, do you want to take him down immediately?"

"Sure enough it's here!" The fifth prince was about to let Zheng Shounian be taken down, but was stopped by Su Yizhao.

"What is he doing?" Su Yizhao asked suddenly.

The guard was a little inexplicable, "I'm sleeping."

"Why do you need to light up the lamp when you sleep?" Su Yizhao immediately sensed something was wrong, and then felt bad.

"Not good! Go and see if the person is still there!"

The two guards immediately returned the same way, but Su Yizhao frowned.

An Tao who was behind him whimpered twice, Su Yizhao looked back and found that her eyes were full of worry.

"Servant, stay here and watch An Tao."

Su Yizhao picked up the fifth prince and got out of the carriage.

"Kick the door!" Su Yizhao came to the gate of the courtyard and shouted directly.

Without saying a word, the fifth prince kicked the door and went in.After entering, they closed the door behind their backs, and the two went straight to the bedroom with candlelight.

"Master, it's not good, he's gone." A guard stepped forward to report.

"What's going on? Where did you go?" the Fifth Prince asked with a frown.

"It was there just now, but it disappeared now, and Li Dong was found unconscious in the house." The guard felt that the matter was too strange.

Li Dong is another guard. The two came back to report just now, but Li Dong stayed behind to guard them.

"Immediately send someone to chase after it, to see if there are any traces left along the way, and pay attention to the tracks of the wheels and the footprints of the horse."

Su Yizhao sighed, they really startled the snake.

One of the guards immediately jumped over the wall, ready to follow.

Su Yizhao and the fifth prince rushed to the bedroom in a hurry, and as soon as they entered, they saw the guard Li Dong lying unconscious on the ground.

"See if he's okay!" Su Yizhao told another guard.

The guard Wu Huo glanced at the fifth prince, but saw that the fifth prince was not looking at him, so he helped Li Dong aside, and took out a porcelain bottle from his arms.

Su Yizhao first glanced at the bed, the quilt was lifted, she stepped forward to touch it, and there was still a little bit of warmth.

It should be because he was lying on the bed before and then left in a hurry.

Looking around the room, I found that the layout is very simple, except for the bed, there is only a set of tables and chairs and a shelf.

The Bogu shelf is empty, nothing.

Su Yizhao shook the Bogu stand, and it could be pushed without any abnormality.

Looking around the house, everything is normal.

Suddenly, she smelled a strange smell.Su Yizhao turned around and lifted the quilt, and there was a group of shocking blood in front of him.

The fifth prince stepped forward to take a look, what didn't he understand?

"Zheng Shounian was killed!" But he couldn't understand a little bit, "Those people killed him, but why did they take his body away? Isn't this just asking for trouble?"

Su Yizhao turned to look at the guard Wu Huo, "When you saw Zheng Shounian, was there anything unusual about him?"

"He was lying on the bed and found nothing unusual." Wu Huo recalled carefully.

"It means that the person died not long ago, maybe before we came. There must have been someone hiding in the house at that time. When they found Li Dong and the others, they stood still."

Su Yizhao analyzed, "Zheng Shounian should have been killed on the bed. After they finished killing, Li Dong and the others came, so the perpetrators disguised Zheng Shounian as if he was asleep."

The fifth prince nodded in agreement, "That is to say, when Li Dong is the only one left, they will stun Li Dong and take Zheng Shounian's body away?"

Su Yizhao nodded, then walked behind the bed, looking for something.

At this time, Li Dong finally woke up slowly, and when he woke up, he said that he was fainted.

The Fifth Prince followed Su Yizhao to the window, and Su Yizhao finally found a drop of blood on the edge of the window.

I wiped it with a kerchief, and it was still fresh, not solidified.

"It seems that they were taken away by someone, but why did they take him away? Wouldn't it be unnecessary to take a dead person to run away? It also makes it more difficult." The fifth prince was puzzled.

The fifth prince immediately ordered Wu Huo to jump out of the window to chase after him. Since there is blood here, there must be blood along the way.

"It's nothing more than two points. First, I'm afraid that people will recognize the traces of the murder weapon on the corpse; second, the corpse has other uses." Su Yizhao said thoughtfully.

"Then what do you think it is?" The fifth prince raised his eyebrows, Su Yizhao's thoughts were very delicate.

"Firstly, Zheng Shounian is just a deputy envoy, and he doesn't even have a rank. Even if he wants to frame him, he is not qualified at all. What's more, we have already found out that the plan will not work."

Su Yizhao checked it again, except for a drop of blood on the edge of the window, there were no other traces.

Returning to the bed again, Su Yizhao carefully observed the pool of blood on the bed.

The fifth prince was thinking about some special weapon, since he was afraid that people would recognize the wound, the weapon he was holding must be very eye-catching.

Su Yizhao turned the quilt over, and found that there was a hole in it, which penetrated to the bottom.

The hole changes from big to small, shaped like a square.

"You should know something about weapons. Look at what shape this is? I feel like a cube?"

As Su Yizhao spoke, he opened the quilt, and there were spray-like bloodstains under it.

"It's a triangular pyramid!" The Fifth Prince remembered a weapon, and suddenly his face became serious.

"Few people in our Dayun Dynasty use this kind of weapon, and they can use it outside the customs. This kind of weapon is very sharp. Once stabbed, it is basically impossible to survive, because the stabbing is too deep, and the bleeding cannot be stopped at all."

"That is to say, the person who killed Zheng Shounian is probably someone outside the customs?" Su Yizhao pondered, "But Zheng Shounian works for the people behind the scenes, and is a capable man who escorts fake armaments. How can people outside the customs kill him? Unless the people behind the scenes Collusion with outsiders."

"Recall carefully, did anyone in the court use this kind of weapon?" Su Yizhao asked again.

The fifth prince shook his head, "Most warriors in this dynasty use long swords, spears, bows and arrows. I can't think of anyone who would use such weapons."

Su Yizhao sighed, "The next one is Di Songlin, I hope he can hold on! Suo Xingkang has already sent someone to watch him."

"It's better to interrogate An Tao, maybe she will have a clue."

The fifth prince asked Li Dong to go back and find someone to come and search the house inside and out to see if there were any other gains.

"Zheng Shounian may have predicted that someone was going to kill him, so will he react? An Tao is the one he wants to take away, maybe An Tao knows something. Zheng Shounian is dead, she can't keep the secret .”

Su Yizhao and the fifth prince returned to the carriage again, but they didn't want to hear the sound of fighting outside when they walked to the gate of the courtyard.

Su Yizhao immediately shouted at the Fifth Prince: "Go and help!"

The Fifth Prince had already drawn his sword, and quickly fled towards the outside of the courtyard.
