Chapter 647
But when the next morning, Gong Xiaoxuan's state of mind completely changed, because today someone came to play again. Many maids died in that palace again, and the death was still as cruel as the previous ones.
Gong Xiaoxuan was really a little angry this time. He followed the people of the punishment department to the palace to check the dead maids, regardless of the fact that the early court was not finished.
These dead maids were arranged and placed in a remote palace. When Gong Xiaoxuan passed by, there were more than a dozen corpses on the ground of the courtyard, all covered with white cloth. The atmosphere of the palace was strange.
Gong Xiaoxuan went straight ahead and lifted the white cloth of a corpse. He saw the little maid in charge, who was about thirteen or fourteen years old, with her eyes wide open. She was obviously very frightened. She couldn't close her eyes until she died. Staring at by the round eyes, Gong Xiaoxuan had no reason to feel that he had goose bumps.
And look down along the eyes, only to see the little maid's belly 1; There is a big hole in 150850295305065. If you look down the light, you can only see the red part inside, and a lot of flesh and blood are pouring up.
Even though Gong Xiaoxuan, who had experienced the bloodbath on the battlefield, could not help but feel a chill when he saw the little maid's miserable death.
This method of killing people is really cruel. Many ministers who followed Gong Xiaoxuan turned their heads when they saw the appearance of the little maid. The timid civil servants were so scared that they could not even look at it.
Gong Xiaoxuan's eyes sank and looked at the corpses on the ground. There were more than a dozen of them. Except for the five of yesterday, there were still about ten people. They must have died last night.
"Come on, call the commander of the imperial army."
In the presence of the ministers, Gong Xiaoxuan couldn't ask the dark guards out, so he had to ask the commander of the imperial guards to come. He told the imperial guards yesterday to pay close attention to them.
The commander of the imperial army came quickly, and when he saw Gong Xiaoxuan, he saluted respectfully and said, "see king an, Wang an Wanfu."
However, Gong Xiaoxuan didn't see it. His eyes were flowing on the little maid. The kneeling leader of the Imperial Army quietly swept Gong Xiaoxuan's face with the remaining light, and his forehead could not help sweating.
Last night, he led the patrol in person. Originally, there were no waves and waves all night. He was very proud of himself and thought that because he was there, those gangsters did not dare to make trouble in the palace.
But this morning, when he received the news that the maids were dead, his face was even more ugly than it is now. Someone killed them directly under his eyes, but he didn't notice anything, which made his back cool.
Now seeing Gong Xiaoxuan's cold face, the head of the imperial army began to pray for many blessings, but he completely messed up what king an had told him.
The expression of the leader of the imperial guards has been changing, while Gong Xiaoxuan, who looks at the little maid in the palace, is also looking at the leader of the imperial guards with Yu Guang. Seeing that the time was almost up, Gong Xiaoxuan broke the silence and said, "these maids were brutally killed yesterday. Do you have any trace and who did it?"
Gong Xiaoxuan didn't ask him to get up, so the leader of the imperial guards laughed awkwardly, moved his numb legs quietly, and muttered respectfully and stutteringly: "last night... Last night, my subordinates didn't find any trace, and I don't know what they did."
The head of the Imperial Guards was burning red, which was a very serious matter. After hearing this, Gong Xiaoxuan's face was as cold as ever, but his eyes swept over the head of the imperial guards, and the meaning of his eyes was not clear.
The imperial guards didn't find any trace, but the maids died inexplicably. This became a headless tragedy. After a lot of sighing, everyone went back to their families and continued to live.
And Gong Xiaoxuan called out the secret guards and asked them, but the result was still the same as what the leader of the imperial guards said. They didn't find anything. The maids were killed for no reason.
There is no trace of the dead in the palace. After a long-term investigation by the people of the Ministry of punishment, the matter is so silent. However, there are many discussions in the capital, and rumors of various versions are everywhere.
"Well, have you heard? The palace is haunted. The ghost eats the entrails of the maid in waiting... "
"Eh, how can I hear that there are cannibals in that palace. They come out to eat people in the middle of the night. Even if King an sends people to guard them, it's useless."
....
It's about the dead in the palace. As these people's mouths spread, it's more and more outrageous. In Prince an's mansion, Baili Jinxiu looks at the news of the yolk sect's return with a cold face. The look at the bottom of her eyes is a little complicated.
According to the investigation of the egg yolk sect, the girls who died in the palace are likely to be taken to practice some kind of magic or secret method, and the things that can be cultivated by such cruel and bloody means must be very evil and bloodthirsty.
Baili Jinxiu doesn't know whether Dayan has this kind of thing, but in her subconscious, after the bloodthirsty alliance, a suspicious object comes out - the princess of clarity.
It's also very evil and strange to know the princess's bewitching skill. It's very likely that the princess is lying in wait for the day of her comeback. Hundred Li rich brocade's eyes sank, the palace Xiao Xuan behind also suddenly seemed to think of something, the tone floated suddenly way: "the princess thinks this palace maids one thing has the possibility to have something to do with that dance Ji Ru Yu?" Although according to the information about Ruyu reported by the dark guards yesterday, Ruyu is completely harmless, Baili Jinxiu and Gong Xiaoxuan know very well that the dancer is not as simple as it seems. Therefore, it is also very reasonable for Gong Xiaoxuan to suspect that it has something to do with the dancer Ruyu. But hundred Li rich brocade gently shakes head, her intuition tells her, this palace maiden affair, very likely to have participation. And the dancer Ruyu may be an accomplice or an innocent person. However, Baili Jinxiu looked at Gong Xiaoxuan's frowning and deep thinking, and a smile flashed at the bottom of her eyes. She explained in a soft voice: "the dancer is like jade. She must have made enemies everywhere in the back palace, and the people of the previous dynasty have been staring at the back Palace. If the dancer did something out of line, she would have been caught by the ministers for a long time, so although she is suspicious, she is not the most likely one. " Hundred Li rich brocade said of very reasonable, the temple Xiao Xuan echoed of order to nod, with the eyes signal she continue to say. Baili Jinxiu cleared her throat, looked at Gong Xiaoxuan with a smile, and then suddenly asked, "do you remember the princess?" Gong Xiaoxuan naturally remembers to take Princess Qingqing. Although Princess Qingqing disappeared after she escaped from the dungeon of Prince an's mansion, what she did before Qingqing made Gong Xiaoxuan hard to forget the existence of this man. Hundred Li rich brocade looked at the palace Xiao Xuan to nod, just slightly put away the smile of the corner of the mouth, the facial expression also becomes compared to come to more positive color. Gong Xiaoxuan's eyes swept the changes on Bai Li Jinxiu's face and knew that Bai Li Jinxiu was going to get down to business.
