Chapter 867
Li Xiruo took out the compass, put two fingers on it, and the compass turned rapidly, and finally pointed to the southwest corner.If Li Xiruo walked forward, he had already sensed Taoist Jia's aura.

She put down the compass and looked at Daoshi Jia standing not far away. His whole body was covered in bruises, his forehead was covered with scars as big as his wrists, and there were traces of stitches. He smiled darkly at her.

Just as Li Xiruo was about to step forward, Taoist Jia murmured, and a gust of wind blew up on the spot, knocking over Li Xiruo's veil. Li Xiruo put down his hand blocking the wind, and saw Taoist Jia pointing Looking at her, she shouted: "She is a prisoner of the imperial court!"

The vendors on the streets on both sides, the men and women who were walking stopped one after another, and took out the notices in their arms.

The reward of 1000 taels of gold is, for them, the glory and wealth that can never be enjoyed in a lifetime, so Li Xiruo's notice is kept in his arms every day, thinking about the day when he will really get the curtain from the sky, A windfall.And now, the opportunity has come.

They picked up the things that were in their hands and surrounded Li Xiruo. Li Xiruo looked at Taoist Jia, but he looked back and hid in the crowd. If Li Xiruo took a step forward, those people would go Taking a step closer, his face was full of desire for money.

Seeing that Li Xiruo was besieged, Taoist Jia hurriedly fled all the way. He didn't expect Li Xiruo to come to the door so soon in the morning. He had to flee back to the barrier as soon as possible so that Li Xiruo could not calculate his position.

He pushed open the gate of the backyard of King Yu's Mansion, saw no one around, and slipped in. He just thought that Li Xiruo might be sent to see the official by those people, and he could calm down for two days, so he just looked at what he was thinking about just now. The person was already standing in the courtyard with his back facing him.

"You," Taoist Jia knew that Li Xiruo was a little bit good, but he didn't know who she was. He thought that as long as he could keep hiding in the barrier, Li Xiruo would never be able to find him.

Li Xiruo turned around and looked at Taoist Jia mockingly: "You don't think that the method just now can trap me."

Taoist Jia stepped back step by step. He knew that Li Xiruo would definitely not let him go today, and he had to go first.He saw the timing and was about to escape from the mansion, but Li Xiruo flashed in front of him and threw him to the ground: "You killed King Yu?"

Daoist Jia suddenly sneered: "If I killed King Yu, why would I be in his house now? I should run away."

"You have already been killed by King Yu once, and your body has started to rot. You are only alive because of your centuries-old Taoism. You are here because you want to use the body of a living person to revive your soul."

Jia Daoshi was poked in the center of his thoughts, tilted his head, and smiled again: "I did think so, and what I thought was King Yu, if it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be like this, but you also know that I If you want a living person, not a dead person, what good is it for me to kill King Yu?"

Li Xiruo lowered her eyebrows: "Since you didn't kill King Yu, what secrets did you hide from Fu Wanying? You instructed her to lead me to Yuxulou to blame me for everything, but in turn took away all of her It's like crossing the river and tearing down the bridge."

Taoist Jia laughed loudly: "I am now serving Princess Yu, and I will do whatever she asks me to do."

"Dong Yuzhen?"

Li Xiruo tied up Taoist Jia and searched around the Yu Palace, but there was no trace of Dong Yuzhen. It stands to reason that now, as the widow of Yu Wang, she should handle the funeral in the palace, but she looked around. No one was there.

Li Xiruo tied up Taoist Jia and prepared to bring it to King Jing. She doubted Dong Yuzhen, but she didn't believe that Taoist Jia would be innocent.

Lin Shang searched for Li Xiruo on the street for a long time before seeing her, and immediately stepped forward and said, "Gu Chongchao seems to have noticed that Chen Xin has been following him, and he disappeared when he turned around. I heard that Fu Wanying at Prince Jing's mansion woke up and said After finding out the murderer, he hurried to Prince Jing's mansion, who knew that Chen Xin would also disappear now."

"Fu Wanying told me who killed King Yu?"

Lin Shang nodded: "It's unexpected, but it's being cleaned up. It's Gu Chongchao."

Since all this was done by Gu Chongchao, Chen Xin followed him but disappeared, and now he is in danger. Li Xiruo handed Taoist Jia to Lin Shang: "Take care of him, he is also an important witness."

She put a restraint on Jia Daoshi, but she was not worried about him escaping.

Li Xiruo found the last place where Chen Xin disappeared, took out the compass, and saw the direction pointing to the Gu family.

Gu Chongchao is also a poor child, even if he has been an official for three years, he still can't afford a house in the bustling area of ​​the capital, so he can only build a small courtyard in a remote place. Look down and out.

Seeing that the door was ajar, Li Xiruo quietly pushed the door in, and heard the violent quarrel inside.

"You tied up Yicheng's son-in-law, the champion of the dynasty, you really don't want to live."

"He has been following me, and he must have suspected me a long time ago. If he is allowed to continue like this, the two of us will be exposed soon."

Dong Yuzhen pushed him away: "What evidence does he have? Even if he tells it, will anyone believe it? You want to have an extra life in your hands. Have you ever thought about your parents?"

Gu Chongchao seemed to have entered into a paranoid mood: "I didn't do all this for you. I killed King Yu and tied Chen Xin, wasn't it just to protect you?"

Dong Yuzhen sneered: "Don't make these excuses, all of this was done by yourself, it has nothing to do with me."

Gu Chongchao did not expect that Dong Yuzhen would be so calm and heartless. He looked at Chen Xin who was tied up with a cold expression: "As long as you kill him, no one can find him buried in the wilderness. You are still your Yu." Princess, I will be my fourth-rank young mansion."

Dong Yuzhen saw that Gu Chongchao had finally made up his mind to make a clean break, and finally heaved a sigh of relief, urging him: "Then act quickly, otherwise the night will be long and dreamy."

Gu Chongchao laughed mockingly: "Since I killed King Yu for you, it's your turn to do it now."

Dong Yuzhen's eyes widened, as if Gu Chongchao was dreaming, but Gu Chongchao raised his dagger and said, "I can't be the only one with dirty hands, can I?"

Hearing that there was no sound inside, Li Xiruo pushed the door open and entered, and saw Chen Xin tied aside with a rag stuffed in his mouth, seeing Li Xiruo coming, he immediately shook his head at her, signaling her to go out quickly.

Dong Yuzhen and Gu Chongchao never thought that someone would come in. After being stunned, they panicked, but Li Xiruo calmly stepped forward to Chen Xin's side and said to him, "The officers and soldiers are outside the mansion. You are not happy." escape?"

Gu Chongchao listened to Dong Yuzhen and wanted to leave, but Dong Yuzhen stopped after taking a step, and looked at Li Xiruo: "If there are officers and soldiers outside, how come you are the only one coming in."

Li Xiruo asked Chen Xin to stand up, sat down leisurely, looked at Dong Yuzhen and said, "I'm even more curious, why did you kill King Yu?"

Gu Chongchao went outside to search around and found no one, and when he came back, he shook his head at Dong Yuzhen. Dong Yuzhen sneered at Li Xiruo: "Death is imminent, but curiosity is so heavy."

Gu Chongchao protected Dong Yuzhen behind him: "I killed King Yu, and it has nothing to do with her."

Li Xiruo's eyes wandered around the two of them: "Because of your personal relationship?"

"Because Prince Yu is not good enough for Yuzhen. If he wasn't a prince, no one would dare to marry a girl to him. After Yuzhen married into the mansion, not only did she have to endure his three wives and four concubines, but she was also targeted and neglected everywhere. Damn."

That day when he went to Dong Yuzhen, he was thinking that she would have a good life, so he was relieved. He did not expect that he would have a private meeting with Dong Yuzhen, but was discovered by King Yu. The man talked, and immediately punched and kicked Dong Yuzhen, regardless of her status as Wang Gulin's granddaughter.

Gu Chongchao went up to explain that King Yu was merciless to him. King Yu had always been pampered and domineering. He was sure that Gu Chongchao and Dong Yuzhen had selfish interests, so he immediately brought Dong Yuzhen into the palace to expose their scandals in front of the emperor.

Dong Yuzhen didn't expect that King Yu would go crazy so that his relatives would deny him, so he held on to King Yu. Gu Chongchao knew that if the emperor knew about it, everything would be over, so he took out his dagger and pierced it through the back of his head.

Li Xiruo made a guess and said: "Then Fu Wanying and Taoist Jia discovered this matter. You were at a loss as to how to explain the cause of King Yu's death, so you handed over the body to them."

Seeing that Li Xiruo already knew about these two people, Dong Yuzhen was afraid that the matter would have already been revealed, so she didn't hesitate any longer: "Chong Chao, get rid of them as soon as possible, I'll go find that Taoist priest and Fu Wanying first."

Li Xiruo smiled when she heard the movement outside: "I'm afraid you have no chance."

Gu Chongchao heard this and ran out, seeing that King Jing had brought people to surround the perimeter, he pushed open the door and walked in and angrily rebuked the two of them: "You are so brave, you have an affair with Princess Yu, you actually Dare to kill King Yu."

Seeing his whereabouts revealed, Gu Chongchao struggled in vain, the dagger fell off his hand, and fell to the side dejectedly.

Seeing this, Dong Yuzhen immediately appeared and said, "Prince Jing, all of this was done by Gu Chongchao alone, and it's none of my business."

Gu Chongchao listened and glanced at her, thinking of the Dong Yuzhen he knew in the past, innocent and innocent, but in just two or three years, there has been such a big change.

He didn't defend himself, but let Dong Yuzhen push everything on him.

Yicheng put on a veil and stood up: "None of you should try to escape. If you hadn't killed Brother Seven, Concubine Rong wouldn't have gone crazy, and my face wouldn't have been injured. I will definitely make you die."

When Prince Jing was comforting her in the palace, he told her to hear the clue of the real murderer, so she followed immediately, just to see who made her become like this.

Dong Yuzhen looked at Fu Wanying beside King Jing and Taoist Jia in Lin Shang's hands: "The two of them have contributed a lot. They were planning to murder King Yu in the palace. Seeing that Gu Chongchao made the first move, they threatened us and used If ten thousand taels of gold is used to dispose of King Yu's body, they should kill him too."
