Mad Concubine Proud of the World: Your Highness is the most beloved

Chapter 123 Lead the snake out of the hole
Xia Ningxi frowned and shook her head, looked at Yun Chen and said, "I don't think so, evildoers only suck the blood of living people, and once a person dies, the blood will lose its aura along with the vital signs, which is nothing to evildoers benefit."

Yu Xuanzhen suddenly said: "Ning'er, let's close this case! Gu Ye believes that this case should be man-made and has nothing to do with evildoers. Take these two people back to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for interrogation tomorrow, and this case will be considered closed It's time for you and me to go back."

Xia Ningxi shook her head stubbornly: "No, I don't recommend closing the case, Yu Xuanzhen, you are usually so smart, how could you not see that this case is definitely not simple? How could you close the case so hastily?"

Yu Xuanzhen stretched out his hand to hold her hand, with dim light in his eyes, he tightened her hand and said, "Believe me, all the answers will come to the surface before dawn."

Xia Ningxi was stunned for a moment, looking at the determination in his eyes, she suddenly felt that if she didn't even believe Yu Xuanzhen in this world, then who else could be trusted?

Nodding slowly, she pursed her lips and sighed: "Okay, I'll just trust you for now, I hope what you said is true, and before dawn the next day, I can find all the truth and find the real murderer."

Yu Xuanzhen smiled slightly, and looked at Yunchen: "Order, all the guards outside the city will be withdrawn, and the imperial city will be strengthened to prevent anyone from entering the Ministry of Justice to rob people."

"Boss Lin, let's make arrangements!" Yun Chen raised his hand with a dignified expression.

Catcher Lin hurriedly responded, turned around and left quickly, and arranged for people to evacuate according to Yu Xuanzhen's words.

Xia Ningxi followed Yu Xuanzhen into the carriage with a depressed mood, and drove back to the city.

Yun Chen took another carriage and followed.Only Lin Butou was in command, arranging follow-up matters in the village.

Sitting stuffy against the window of the carriage, Xia Ningxi sighed and rested her cheeks, watching the scenery outside the window.

Yu Xuanzhen smiled lightly, although she knew that she was depressed and flustered, but now is not the time to explain.

In a very simple room in the back garden of Prince Cheng's Mansion, Xia Muyao walked to the cabinet, opened the cabinet, raised her eyebrows and smiled and said to the tablet: "This afternoon, it is said that the people from the Ministry of Punishment have caught the murderer of the girl. It has been withdrawn. However, in order to prevent other involvement in the case, the city is now under martial law, so we have to start from outside the city."

Lu Yun didn't show up, and said lazily: "You can arrange these things. It's too late today, and you probably won't have time to arrange someone to help me find a suitable girl. Wait until tomorrow! The criminal department will definitely open the court to interrogate the prisoners tomorrow. No one will worry about accidents outside the city, and it will be easier for you to do it."

"I see."

Xia Muyao nodded and took a breath: "I still say that, if something happens, you must come forward to help me deal with the aftermath, otherwise, neither you nor I will end well. If something happens to me, I will definitely tell Xia Ningxi you Hiding in Chengwang Mansion."

"Don't worry, someone has taken the blame for you in this case, what else can happen. You just need to rest assured and help me find a suitable girl." Lu Yun said with a chuckle.

Xia Muyao didn't say any more, took a deep breath, her eyes flickered with coldness, she smiled mockingly, and said in her heart: "Xia Ningxi, the crown prince with unparalleled talent and unparalleled wit in the world is nothing more than that. You regret marrying such a A useless and short-lived man?"

The next day, the Ministry of Criminal Justice opened a court to interrogate the two men arrested from outside the city. Because the methods used in this case were so vicious, the people in the city had long gathered around the gate of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, waiting for Zhou Shangshu to be promoted.

From the back hall, he walked solemnly and solemnly to the hall and sat down. Zhou Shangshu slapped the gavel and shouted: "Lead someone to commit crimes!"

"Take the prisoner!" The loud and clear voice was transmitted directly to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and the two men who committed the crime were quickly escorted to the hall and knelt down.

Zhou Shangshu took a sip of tea and sat down leisurely, glanced at the prisoner kneeling below him, and remained silent for a while.

The people below looked anxiously. They really didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Shangshu's gourd this week, but since this was the court of the Ministry of Punishment, no one dared to say a word.

Zhou Shangshu just sat upright like a mountain, drinking tea non-stop, and even ran to the hut twice during the process, sitting from the morning until almost noon.

Some of the onlookers lost their patience, shook their heads and left in disappointment, while some continued to wait patiently, asking the yamen guards on the outside from time to time, asking when the interrogation would start, and the discussions continued from beginning to end. .

Looking at the bright sunlight outside the hall, Zhou Shangshu sighed with emotion. After all, this is what the prince wanted him to stay here so that the real murderer could relax his vigilance and lure the snake out of the hole.

In the corridor of the back garden, Xia Ningxi walked slowly to the place close to the court, and stood there in a daze, motionless for a long while.

Little Putao stood on her shoulder, blinking, drooping her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

Suddenly, a green light swirled down from the side, and You Huang patted Xia Ningxi's shoulder abruptly, and said with a smile, "Why do you have to stand here all this time? You don't believe in Yu Xuanzhen?"

Upon hearing the voice of You Huang, Xia Ningxi turned her head to look at him in surprise, and shook her head with wide eyes: "No, I just don't understand. It stands to reason that Yu Xuanzhen should be able to see that this case is absolutely It won't be that simple. But why does he think this is a case of human trafficking?"

"If you come with me, you will understand everything." You Huang smiled and raised his eyebrows as a signal.

Xia Ningxi tilted her head to look at him, and asked doubtfully, "Where are you going?"

"Outside the city, look for the murderer." Just as You Huang finished speaking, he took her hand and flew into the air.

Xia Ningxi stared at the quiet garden below, frowned, followed You Huang, and hurried out of the city.

Landing lightly on the roof of a farmer's house, You Huang lifted the hem of his clothes and sat down leisurely, with the green awn in his hand twirling, pointing down the white jade flute persistently, and said with a smile: "Look carefully, do you think there is something wrong there?"

Frowning, Xia Ningxi turned her head to look at the farmers below, and suddenly found a strange phenomenon.It stands to reason that these villagers should be very happy that the Ministry of Criminal Justice was promoted today, and many people should have gone to watch the trial of the case.But the strange thing is that there are people in every household, and if there are daughters in the family, the parents accompany them attentively and never leave.

After watching it for a while, Xia Ningxi looked away, and asked in confusion, "What's going on? Why did you bring me to see this?"

"You'll understand later, just keep watching." You Huang didn't explain much, and lay back lazily, squinting his eyes to rest his mind.

Standing on the roof, Xia Ningxi stared at the distance, and suddenly found a very pretty girl walking along the field ridge alone, holding a bouquet of wild flowers in her hand.

Walking to a big tree, the girl sat down against the big tree and smelled the fragrance of wild flowers in her hand.
