Princess of the auxiliary country

As a few people left the palace, Liu's mournful crying was heard outside not long after.

Everyone was moved in their hearts and realized that the deceased was most likely that Wang Yuanyuan.

Just following the big guy, I was very confused, why did this good Wang Yuanyuan die?

How did you die? An accident or murder?

If it is an accident, it can only be said that the girl is unlucky, but if it is murder, this is a big deal.

How bold is it to kill someone at such a grand palace banquet?

Soon, a little waiter trotted in.

"King Huaiyang, Lord Minister of Dali Temple, your Majesty calls you over."

Immediately, two people stood up from the male guest side. The former was the King of Huaiyang, who was wearing the clothes of a prince. This was the current Minister of Punishment of the Yu Dynasty. He was also the emperor's cousin and a royal family member.

The other one is the Minister of Dali Temple.

Seeing that the emperor summoned the two of them, everyone already knew the answer in their hearts. If they could summon these two at this time, Wang Yuanyuan outside might not have died accidentally.

"Yao Yao, should we go over and have a look too?"

Seeing Huo Junyao staring outside with a curious look on her face, Princess Ningyang knew that she wanted to go out and see what was going on.

Hearing her speak, Huo Junyao turned around and asked, "Is that okay?"

Didn't the emperor say that everyone should stay where they are?

Although she was annoyed when others came to trouble her at the banquet, she still preferred to watch the excitement.

She also wanted to know who dared to kill people at the palace banquet, just because they wanted to eat melon, not shabby.

"Father."

Princess Ningyang looked at Huo Junyao like a mother, and then stood up and shouted to the Supreme Emperor.

The Supreme Emperor was so smart. As soon as he heard her greetings and looked at Huo Junyao's eyes that wanted to fly out of the palace, he guessed what they meant.

I saw the Supreme Emperor standing up.

"Ningyang, Zhaode, follow me to see what's going on."

As soon as he stood up, Queen Shen beside him quickly said, "Father, there is someone dead outside. I'm afraid they might come back to attack you."

"Queen, don't worry. What didn't I see when I conquered the world?"

Then he led Ning Yang and Princess Zhaode out without hesitation, and the queen also got up to follow them.

After all, she is also the master of the harem. This matter happened in the harem, and she must understand it first before she wants to watch the fun too.

When she was about to leave the palace, she turned to the people inside who had their necks stretched out and said, "Everyone, please stay where you are and don't move around at will. People's lives are on the line now. Don't get yourself into trouble because of your careless movements." "

As soon as these words came out, some young people who wanted to sneak over and watch the fun were suddenly stopped by their parents.

Yes, there is something big going on outside now. If someone kills people at the palace banquet, the emperor will definitely be angry and will definitely investigate strictly. You can't just walk around now. If someone is considered suspicious because of something, it's no joke. of.

Outside the palace, Huo Junyao followed the Supreme Emperor and others to the scene. At this time, Emperor Zhaowu looked gloomy, and the King of Huaiyang and the Minister of Dali Temple were looking at the body.

"Your Majesty, this woman was knocked unconscious and thrown into the pool and drowned."

"This man's attack was so cruel that his skull was dented. Even if he didn't drown, he probably wouldn't be able to live long with such a serious injury."

And just as the Minister of Dali Temple finished speaking, the voice of the guard came from the side.

"Your Majesty, a stone with blood stains was found here."

King Huaiyang quickly got up and went to check. He looked at the stone, turned to Emperor Zhaowu and said, "Your Majesty, I'm sure, this was not a mistake, but someone deliberately murdered." After hearing their words, Princess Ningyang whispered. Huo Junyao asked doubtfully, "My daughter, is this murder? How can anyone be so bold as to kill someone at a palace banquet?"

"It's indeed murder. Mom, look at that stone. What's the difference between the areas with blood stains and the areas without blood stains?"

Princess Ningyang looked over and frowned, "Isn't it just a stone? What's the difference?"

The Emperor and the Queen heard the conversation between mother and daughter and looked over curiously. The answers they got were similar to Ning Yang's, and they didn't see anything special.

"This stone is quite big. It looks like it came from a rockery. This kind of stone is exposed to wind and sun all year round. There is more or less moss on the side facing up."

"If he had lost his footing, the deceased's head would have hit the mossy side, but the place where you looked at the blood stains was not on the mossy side."

"This means that someone grabbed a stone and threw it at the deceased, so that's why it happened."

The three of them were all stunned after hearing this, and it was indeed true when they thought about it.

Huo Junyao's voice was not suppressed and resounded throughout the surrounding area.

King Huaiyang looked over in surprise and said with a smile, "I didn't expect Princess Zhaode to have such eyes. I guessed it right."

"Why did you come out too?"

Emperor Zhaowu frowned slightly when he saw a few people.

"I wanted to come over and take a look, so I asked them to accompany me."

Hearing this, Emperor Zhaowu didn't say anything. Instead, he turned to look at King Huaiyang and asked, "Are there any other clues? Find it out quickly. I want to see who is so bold. Dare to kill someone at my palace banquet."

The King of Huaiyang and the Minister of Dali Temple took action quickly.

Start asking who was the first person to find the body, and who was on duty here at the time.

However, there were no clues, so the two began to investigate the last person who had seen Wang Yuanyuan.

After this series of investigations, I finally found some clues.

Before the palace banquet started, someone called Wang Yuanyuan away in the palace. Then after the palace banquet started, everyone was watching the performance, but they didn't notice that one person was missing. Not even Mrs. Liu noticed that her daughter was not there.

Afterwards, after a series of investigations, it was found that at the beginning of the palace banquet, no one was walking around. The only one walking around was Princess Ningyang, who ordered a person to leave the palace.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Princess Ningyang.

Seeing the looks these people were looking at, Princess Ningyang said angrily, "What are you looking at? Do you doubt me?"

"I have no enmity with Wang Yuanyuan, so why do I want to kill her?"

When everyone heard this, it was indeed true. Although the eldest princess Ningyang was powerful, it was always someone else who provoked her when she dealt with people. This Wang Yuanyuan was just a woman from the minister's house. There was a big difference in their status. She should not Dare to provoke Princess Ningyang.

"Ningyang asked people to leave because I wanted something and asked her to send someone back to the house to get it."

The Supreme Emperor also spoke.

Once he said this, no one would doubt Princess Ningyang.

"No, didn't I just say that someone called away Miss Wang Yuanyuan before the banquet? Where is that person?"

When Huo Junyao opened his mouth, everyone was stunned, especially the King of Huaiyang and the Minister of Dali Temple who were even more confused.

Yes, if this person can call Wang Yuanyuan away, he must know him. Even if he doesn't know him, there is a reason why Wang Yuanyuan has to go. It's just that this person didn't find out after the investigation just now.
