Chapter 178 Sudden Crisis ([-])

Someone killed two guards without disturbing anyone, no matter whether this person was an assassin who broke into the palace or he was a member of the palace, this matter is no small matter, and naturally a thorough investigation is required.

But there is no need to investigate at all...

The imperial physician had already checked thoroughly, but they couldn't see how the person died. Everyone knew that in the palace... it should be said that there was only one person in the whole world who could do this, and that was Jin'er.

Jin'er once demonstrated to them how to kill people with one blow without leaving any clues. Although no one has learned it, everyone knows that she has this ability.

Now that something like this happened, she was the most suspect.

Jin'er is someone the emperor likes, the commander of the guards hesitated for a long time, and could only ask the emperor for instructions.

There was no movement in the bedroom, no one dared to disturb the emperor's sleep, but gossip spread the fastest in the palace, and the queen mother immediately learned the news.

The Empress Dowager was furious, and immediately sent someone to arrest Jin'er, while she rushed to the emperor's bedroom.

With such a large group of people approaching, Yuwen Zhaoxi was naturally aware of it, and rushed out of the palace, "I want to stop everyone from making a sound."

As soon as he appeared, the queen mother scolded angrily, "What kind of woman do you like?!"

"What's the matter?" Yuwen Zhaoxi looked at the commander of the guards behind the Queen Mother with an inquiring look.

"Returning to the emperor," the commander of the guards broke out in a cold sweat, "It was discovered this morning that two patrolling guards were murdered and thrown into the lake. The imperial physician has checked and found no cause of death, so..."

"So you suspect that I killed him?" A cold voice appeared behind Yuwen Zhaoxi.

"..." Everyone was taken aback, they never expected that Jin'er would appear in the emperor's bedroom.

"Come on, arrest her!" the queen mother ordered.

"Slow down," Yuwen Zhaoxi stopped, "She was with me last night, it is impossible to go out and kill people."

"Xi'er! What time is this, are you still protecting her?! She won't wait for you to fall asleep before going out?!"

Yuwen Chaoxi put on a cold face, "My son hasn't slept all this time."

"..." Everyone was silent, the emperor's meaning was obvious, the lonely man and the widow were in the same room, they hadn't slept all this time, they could only be... busy all the time.
