The corpse I saw earlier is still hanging in the air, but below it is empty!

There were some signs of fighting in the courtyard, as well as the bodies of several guards.

The boundary of Qijiao lane has also been broken, and it is obvious that it was forcibly broken into.

Chu Liuyue immediately searched the courtyard, but did not find any useful clues.

The only certainty is that the time of death of these people should not exceed one day.

Whether outside or inside, these dead guards did not have too many wounds on their bodies. They were all directly wiped on their necks and killed with one blow.

This is obviously a unilateral massacre!

Chu Liuyue carefully looked at their bodies and frowned gradually.

It seems that the guards didn't have time to resist.

Although these people can't be regarded as the top strong, they are well-trained and can solve so many people at the same time. They don't even have the opportunity to deliver messages. Either they are in large numbers, or... They are very strong!

Chu Liuyue prefers the latter.

The imperial capital has been heavily guarded recently. If so many people really came, the news of the fight between the two sides must have been spread out long ago, rather than the corpses everywhere, but no one knows.

If she hadn't just come today, I don't know when the situation here would be discovered.

Chu Liuyue thought for a moment and went straight to the palace.

...

The palace is heavily guarded, but fortunately, Chu Liuyue and Rong Xiu have an engagement. As the future Princess, the palace people naturally release her directly.

Chu Liuyue did not go to find emperor Jiawen, but went straight to the Queen's bedroom.

On the way, she was acutely aware that the atmosphere in the palace was very cold and strange, and everyone became cautious.

Obviously, the queen and Rong Jin made them all nervous.

Halfway through, Chu Liuyue bumped into a team of people.

The current one is Chu Ning!

After a few days of absence, he looked haggard and tired. It can be seen that he didn't worry much during this period.

"Daddy!"

Chu Liuyue stepped forward quickly.

Hearing the familiar voice, Chu Ning immediately looked up and saw Chu Liuyue.

There was a flash of surprise in his eyes, but then he frowned.

"Yue'er, why are you here?"

Chu Liuyue came to him:

"Dad, I have something important to tell you."

Chu Ning looked at her face and suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Yue'er has always been very sensible. If he didn't have something urgent, he would never come to the palace to find him at this time.

He whispered to the people behind him, and took Chu Liuyue aside.

”What's the matter“

Chu Liuyue pursed his lips.

"Dad, all the guards in charge of guarding Qijiao lane were killed! The bronze tripod in Qijiao lane has also been stolen and disappeared! "

"What, what!?"

Chu Ning looked frightened.

He expected something bad to happen, but he didn't expect it——

"When did it happen?"

Chu Liuyue simply said it again.

Chu Ning's face became more and more ugly.

"... that is, I don't know who it is yet? And there's no clue? "

Chu Liuyue nodded gently.

"I know your majesty attaches great importance to the affairs of Qijiao lane, and you happen to be in charge of these recently, so you came immediately after it happened."

Chuning's face was like a layer of frost.

He has been busy dealing with the queen in the palace these days, so he put aside the affairs in Qijiao lane for a while and handed them over to his subordinates.

But I didn't expect this to happen!

Even if his majesty ordered him to stay in the palace and solve the problems here first, he can't shirk his responsibility!

"OK, I see. I'll go and tell your majesty. "

Chuning made a quick decision.

This matter will be known by his majesty sooner or later. Even if he will be punished, he must take the initiative to face it.

"Yue'er, go back first -"

Chu Liuyue shook his head.

"I'll go with my father. I was the first person to find out about it. There's no reason not to go“

Chu Ning hesitated.

"This matter involves a lot. Dad doesn't want you to be dragged in“

According to his investigations in various aspects these days, he has vaguely felt that the queen should have made a big game before she died.

Although she is dead now, it is far from over.

Especially... Now the Bronze Cylinder in Qijiao lane has disappeared inexplicably!

No matter from what point of view, he hopes yue'er can stay out of it.

Chu Liuyue's lips bent.

"From the moment I went to Qijiao lane, I couldn't get away easily. But don't worry, yue'er knows. Yue'er knows what to do and what not to do“

Chu Ning looked at her deeply.

He doesn't know that this is actually her story?

The real reason is... If she can come forward, she can largely reduce his Majesty's punishment.

Chu Ning nodded at last.

"OK. Go with me to your majesty. "

......

Chu Liuyue walked beside Chu Ning, and the forbidden guards behind kept a distance from them.

Originally, Chu Liuyue wanted to ask about the queen, but after thinking about it, he pressed down his words.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the party finally arrived at Zhaoyang hall.

Strangely, it was day, but the gate of Zhaoyang hall was closed.

And the number of bodyguards outside the hall was twice as many as usual, waiting in full array.

Chu Ning stopped wisely.

Duke min, who was guarding at the gate outside the hall, saw Chu Ning and knew that he had come to report to his majesty, but then he saw Chu Liuyue standing next to Chu Ning.

Min Gong's heart jumped.

Why is this here at this time!?

He hurried over with small steps.

"Lord Chu Ning, your majesty is dealing with important matters at this time. Please wait a moment."

Then he looked at Chu Liuyue: "miss Liuyue, why are you here today“

Chu Liuyue said concisely:

"I have something important to tell your majesty with my father. Don't worry, Grandpa min. we'll just wait here. "

Duke min was a personal expert. Seeing the look of Chu Liuyue and Chu Ning, he felt that there was something wrong. He didn't ask in detail immediately. He echoed two sentences and went back.

However, as soon as he walked back, the door was suddenly opened from inside!

Bang!

A middle-aged man in black brocade came out of it!

His face was very gloomy, and there was a sense of dignity around him that strangers should not enter.

When Grandpa min saw him coming out, he immediately took a respectful step back.

But the man didn't pay any attention, just walked out with big steps!

Looking at that face, Chu Liuyue narrowed his eyes slightly.

This face... Is a little familiar

Suddenly, her eyes lit up!

This man is five points similar to situ Xingchen!
