Chapter 118 Death News
Scenes of the past flashed through his mind quickly, the prince slowly opened his eyes, she finally left Prince Ling's mansion, but she didn't leave him a chance, just like that, she disappeared without a sound.


In the study room, there was silence. The prince sighed softly. He held a teacup tightly in his hand. The tea in the cup was already cold, but he didn't realize it.


The door was pushed open without a sound, and Xiao came in with a blank expression on his face.


When the crown prince saw him, he stood up from the chair in excitement. He didn't even know that the teacup in his hand was splashed out and spilled all over him because of his excessive movements.


Xiao glanced at him indifferently, and said expressionlessly, "Chen, your clothes are wet."


The prince has always loved cleanliness. All the things he uses must be pure white, and the clothes he wears are also white clothes. In other words, in the 21st century, he has a cleanliness habit. However, a person who loves cleanliness so much is now casual He waved his hands to wipe off the water droplets on his body.


The prince ignored Xiao's words, but walked up to him and asked eagerly, "Xiao, have you found any news about her?"


Xiao looked serious, looked at the prince, and said slowly, "I found out that someone had seen them in the Oriental Inn not far from the capital, but when I got there, they were gone, yes Oh, Chen, did you send someone to chase them down?"


The prince looked at Xiao suspiciously, and said, "Hustle? Why? Was she hunted down?"


Xiao did not answer the prince's words, but turned around and walked to the door of the study room, listened intently for a while, then turned around and walked back, looked at the prince solemnly, and said, "I am not far from the Dongfang Inn. , I found a large puddle of blood, and there were traces of a fight, and I found such a thing there!" After speaking, Xiao reached out and took out a hosta from his bosom, and gently placed it on the table .


The prince stretched out his slightly trembling hand and picked up the jade hairpin on the table. He glanced at the jade hairpin in his hand, his breathing suddenly became heavy, his hand tightly held the jade hairpin, he recognized this jade hairpin, this jade hairpin It was what he asked Wuying to send her, and it was also the hosta that she pinned in her hair on the day of the banquet.


The prince's face was frighteningly gloomy, and his hands were trembling slightly, showing the uneasiness in his heart. In the study, there was deathly silence.


After a long time, the prince took a deep breath and asked with a slightly trembling tone, "Did you find her body?"


Xiao silently looked at the prince, and after a moment of silence, he said, "No, but I guess, she has fallen off the cliff, because I followed the blood trail and chased them all the way, and they fled to the cliff west of the capital. Their corpses, but on the cliff, there are more than a dozen corpses, those should be the people who went to hunt them down."


When the prince heard Xiao said that Shui Wuyan's body was not found, the prince couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, maybe she wasn't dead yet.


The prince frowned slightly, and asked, "The people who chased her were killed? How do you know that those corpses are the people who chased them? Also, have you seen who those corpses are?"


Xiao was silent for a while, raised his hand, and slowly showed the iron plate in front of the prince, with a dignified expression, "If I'm not mistaken, these guards should be the personal guards of the princess, and those people, They were sent by the Crown Princess, but they all died on the cliff, their wounds were all separated from their heads, their death conditions were extremely horrific, and the enemy's attack was extremely cruel."


The prince's face became even more sullen, sparks shot out from his black eyes, and he said coldly, "That bitch Li Ling'er is so courageous! I won't let her go!"


Xiao glanced at the prince, and said in a calm tone, "You can't offend Li Ling'er now. We need people right now. You can't offend Li Shangshu because of a dead woman. That would be detrimental to our plan."


The prince snorted heavily, but did not speak.


Xiao was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "Li Linger's people were killed by him."


Hearing this, the prince lost his voice and said, "What? He killed him? How do you know? Did you see him?"


Xiao's expression flashed complicated, and he was silent for a long time before he said slowly, "I found a silver needle for chasing souls on the cliff, and there was a guard who was pierced through the brain by him and died. In this world, Besides the master, he is the only one who can use the soul-chasing silver needle, the master passed away a few years ago, the one who killed someone on the cliff, if not him, who could it be?"


After hearing Xiao's words, the prince was silent for a long time, and after a while, he asked, "Did he save her?" After speaking, he paused again, and said, "Even if she was saved by him, she would not survive." How long has it been, she has been poisoned by the poison I gave her, without an antidote, she can't live for a few days."


Xiao went to the chair beside him and sat down, and suddenly said, "Maybe, he didn't save her, she must have fallen off the cliff! I was on the edge of the cliff, and I saw blood on a branch below the cliff, and there was a woman Fragments of clothes."


After hearing Xiao's words, the crown prince suddenly felt deep sadness on his face. He gently stroked the jade hairpin in his hand, slowly closed his eyes, and said, "After all, I still killed her."
