the eighth day of July, early in the morning, at the hour.

　　 Imperial City, Lu Palace.

　　 has entered the summer, at the time of 卯 there was a hint of whitening on the horizon, and the temperature began to rise rapidly.

The Lu Palace is brightly lit. In addition to the royal guards coming in and out, there are also a large number of criminal officials who are busy in it with a frosty face. You can even see the royal guards who do not look at people on weekdays are also honest. Really accept the cross-examination of the officials one by one.

　　 The owner of Prince Lu’s mansion died, and he died in his back garden. This was a bolt from the blue for everyone in Prince Lu’s mansion. Some were crying, some were scared to pee, and some were unbelievable. For the people in the palace, the sky was falling.

　　 In fact, it has been cloudy for a long time in Prince Lu's Mansion before. King Qian was killed, and King Lu was suspected of being a murderer. Not only was he asked to think behind closed doors, but even the original supporters were scattered. Even the handyman in the mansion did not dare to breathe, knowing that the prince was on the verge of rage.

　　 The personal guard who usually serves King Lu said: "The prince is in a bad mood recently. He likes to drink. He always drinks alone, sometimes in the study, sometimes in the pavilion in the back garden.

　　 The moonlight was good last night and there was some cool breeze. King Lu asked someone to sit alone in the pavilion with wine. I was standing at the place where the prince was ten feet away, no, I didn’t find any abnormalities, until the prince’s breath suddenly, suddenly collapsed..."

The personal inner guard of this king Lu was cultivated as the eighth layer of the Yuan Dan realm, and it was almost at the highest level within the scope allowed by the "big exam". In addition, King Lu had recently had bad luck and safety issues were involved, so he always followed him. It's tight, and has never let go of vigilance. Even King Lu had more than one internal defender, but a full eight, all of whom were masters in the Yuandan realm.

　　 But even under this tight defense, King Lu died, even under the noses of many inner defenders.

　　 "Before you came, I was the only one who had approached King Lu's body and the pavilion. I checked all the auras around King Lu at the time, and there was nothing suspicious and nothing found..."

The face of King Lu’s close-fitting inner guard was as gray as he was angry and full of killing intent. He knew that he was finished this time. Even if he did not die, he would lose his position in the royal inner guard. This time he was afraid that he would go to the ancestral land. Guarded. Thinking of the dark days in the future, my heart and liver will aches with anger.

　　The person responsible for recording the confession is Xue Gui, the chief of the case department.

　　 The mask on Xue Gui's face often gives him a cold-faced impression. In fact, Xue Gui's heart is not at all peaceful at this time. He knew very well that the death of one prince after another, even in the "big exam", no matter what aspect of the case, it is not a good thing to accept this kind of case.

　　 But Xue Gui is only a fifth-rank official, how can he shirk the order that Ma Xuanlin, the Shangshu of the Criminal Ministry, gave him personally? Moreover, Ma Xuanlin showed him many times before and after. Ten days ago, he had been asked to temporarily take over the work of the Xingbu Youshilang. Now he naturally has no way to shirk.

　　 But Xue Gui's heart is also very empty. He was worried that the last prince who was enthroned did not read the "good" of the Ministry of Justice, and it would be miserable then.

　　 was unsure, and didn't have much clue when facing the case. But the clues collected so far have made Xue Gui feel a familiar taste.

The conclusion made by 　　仵 came into Xue Gui's hands following the completion of the confession here.

　　 No trauma, no signs of poisoning, and the cause of death is unknown... Isn’t this just the same as before the death of the king? Even the expression on the corpse's face showed no pain at all, just a frown, it seemed that King Lu was still worrying about something annoying before he died, and he died on the spot in the next instant.

Xue Gui nodded and waved his hand to let this imperial inner guard who is unknown in the end go down and wait, but he does not have the power to deal with these inner guards. He has no right to use punishment or imprison, and only has limited power to let the other party cooperate with him in investigating the case. . However, someone from the imperial ancestral hall was sent to cooperate, and Xue Gui didn't have to worry about what moths might emerge from the inner guards in the Lu Palace.

　　 Of course, there is also the possibility of lying in the inner guard. Although the imperial inner guard is equivalent to the dead man of the royal family, there is no absoluteness in the world, and some things are hard to say. It's just that it's not his turn to check if the other party has lied. The people at the royal ancestral hall are already doing it. But Xue Gui also knows that this possibility is very low.

　　 The inspection of King Lu's corpse is almost the same as that of King Qian. But there is still a big difference in the place of the corpse. One was in the dungeon, and no one was by his side when he died; the other was in his back garden, and he was under the watchful eye of his guard when he died.

　　廵 Zuo was unable to judge the cause of death, but Xue Gui had already concluded in his heart: King Lu died in an instant.

According to the previous experience of the Qianwang case, when Xue Gui surveyed the scene, he mainly searched for scripts, books, and even all things with text, but he didn’t get much. He was even told by the people of the Prince of Lu that Prince Lu never liked to read books, except for necessary ones. Outside of some essays, I usually don't touch books. In the pavilion where the corpse of King Lu lived, there was nothing other than the tableware, chopsticks and wine utensils on the stone table, and there was no half of paper.

　　How did the soul of King Nalu be broken by others?

　　 This thought made Xue Gui's mind a mess. Because the cause of death of King Lu and King Qian looked exactly the same, but the methods of death were different. There was no "word book" beside King King's body at the scene, and King Lu had no habit of reading at all.

　　 Isn’t it that you slowly foreshadowed the final blow like killing the king? This time, it was a direct operation~lightnovelpub.net~ without the guardian of the eight monks in the back of the Yuandan realm, shattering the spirit of King Lu?

　　 In the end, Xue Gui could only keep these questions in his heart, and at the same time, he intensified his search of Prince Lu's residence, hoping to find some details that could support some useful deductions.

　　 But when the sky was bright, there was no clue that made Xue Gui's eyes appear in the middle of the sun.

This...Even though he was against this case in his heart, Xue Gui was also irritated by being helpless again, because he knew that this case was actually more undelay than the previous case of the king. Can't afford it.

　　 Just after noon, Ma Xuanlin came and ordered Xue Gui to go back and make a report on the case, and handed it over in writing. Xue Gui had no choice but to follow suit, and at the same time ordered to start inquiring all servants in Prince Lu's Mansion, and tortured to extract a confession if necessary.

At the same time, a straightforward situation report was passed from the imperial ancestral hall who came to coordinate the investigation by the Criminal Ministry, and arrived in the palace. Not long after, Commander Xuan Qingwei Pang Ban was recruited by the emperor. Go in.

　　 In the evening of the same day, a secret order was issued to the head of the Fengri City Heiqiying Commander Yamen. The top-secret copper bar was signed by Shen Hao in person, and then a matched thousand-mile note was handed over to him at the same time.
