Peerless Physician: Miss Waste Material

Chapter 494 Closing the City for Three Days
In the middle of the night, the palace was silent and gloomy. Even though the cold wind was blowing outside and the snow was falling heavily, there were still many eunuchs and maids guarding outside the master's palace, shivering and drowsy.

At this moment, a black shadow flashed past wrapped in the wind and snow.

"Oh my god, look quickly, look quickly, did I see something unclean?!" The young eunuch who was awakened did not dare to look more, and called out to his companion in a low voice with a small trembling.

The companion who seemed to be sleeping but not sleeping was awakened, chanting unknown spells to strengthen his courage, carefully glanced in the direction the other party said, and then slapped the other party's head, "You bastard, unclean thing There are also footprints, which can pick up snowflakes!" He despised this ignorant thing.

Unaware of the confusion he caused, the figure dressed in the costume of the chief eunuch galloped all the way, and finally stopped at the door of the imperial study where the candle was still lit, and it was obvious that the emperor had not rested yet.

"Your Majesty, the slave has something to report."

The eunuch's voice is always so unique, it's so ugly that normal people can't help their goosebumps.

It's a pity that Yunyan is not here, otherwise I would have heard that this old eunuch was not the one she eavesdropped on before, and the one who had a secret conversation with Aunt Xia in the middle of the night, should be the old eunuch trusted by the emperor.

The emperor shunned the servants in the palace and let the old eunuch come in to answer.

"Your Majesty, this slave is guilty. Concubine Xia Gui was killed by the thief when this slave rushed away, and this slave didn't even see the thief, so I ask the emperor to punish me." After finishing speaking, the matriarch kowtowed heavily on the ground.

Because it was already late when Yun Yan and the others committed the crime, although the commotion was loud, the palace gate was locked at that time, when the news spread to the palace and the old eunuch led the troops to support, let alone save people I didn't even see a hair of the culprit, and the two culprits were both masked at the time, which added a lot of difficulty to the search.

Therefore, the old eunuch had no choice but to come back empty-handed to avoid the emperor waiting in a hurry.

"Killed? How come?" The emperor asked with a frown.

Concubine Xia's martial arts is also one of the important reasons why she has always been popular. How could the emperor not know, plus those old men from Shangguan's family, wasn't there no danger when spreading the news before, why did they suddenly die?

"I heard that one of the thieves did not know what kind of forbidden move. After piercing his abdomen with a sword, his skill suddenly increased. The Shangguan family is no match at all."

"Piercing the abdomen...?" the emperor muttered, tapping his fingers on the table subconsciously. Suddenly, his hands squatted in the air, "Could it be..." It seemed that he knew what was going on with Pan Ronghuan, but he didn't know what was going on. Said mother-in-law directly, and then fell into deep thought.

There was a long silence.

"Seal the city for three days, no matter what, catch those two thieves for me." The emperor finally weighed the pros and cons, raised his head and ordered.

"Cha." The old eunuch took the order, but did not leave immediately, but after a slight pause, he took out a letter from his sleeve and presented it with both hands: "Your Majesty, this is the letter left by Concubine Xia." of."

The emperor opened the letter, but frowned even more when he read the new contents——

"Shangguan Baoyu is my child? Gao Qing, what do you think?"

"The slave doesn't know."

Regarding this kind of explosive news, even if the old eunuch knew something, he could only pretend not to know it, otherwise, it would be his own fate.
