Chapter 778
Chapter 778
When the guard general saw Xiao Heqi, he immediately came over and knelt on one knee to salute: "Young Lord."

The general glanced at the young boy in white clothes beside him. This should be the proton sent by the Southern Kingdom. The general also bowed his head and called out: "Your Highness Nine."

Ruan Xiaoli nodded.

Xiao Heqi said with a serious face: "The corpse is over there, you go and check it."

The guard general nodded and got up and walked towards the corpse. He checked the corpse and saw a conspicuous pattern on the corpse's face!Suddenly the general's face changed drastically.

He drew out his saber: "Protect the young master!"

Immediately, the other guards drew their swords, and they surrounded and protected the young master and the Ninth Highness of the Southern Kingdom.

Xiao Heqi frowned, and he looked at the general: "What's going on?"

"Young Lord, you can't say too much about this corpse involving confidential subordinates. It's too dangerous here. Your Highnesses should move to the main hall to wait."

As the general of the guards in the palace, he recognized the pattern on the corpse's face at a glance, and it was the totem of the previous dynasty. Those people were still watching Beihan from the dark.

It was three years ago that the remnants of the previous dynasty left behind patterns of murder, and they reappeared as their ghosts lingered.

At this time, we must report to the emperor!
.
In the middle of the night, the woods were brightly lit, as was a hall not far away.

The corpse has already been moved out of the woods, and it is now placed on the bluestone brick open space in front of the main hall, and the Emperor Beihan has also come.

The emperor's hair was half tied, and he was not wearing a dragon robe, but a bright yellow brocade suit that only emperors could wear. When he came outside the palace and saw the corpse, his expression was very bad.

Everyone saluted, the emperor didn't make a sound, but raised his hand slightly to signal his excuse.

The atmosphere outside the hall was gloomy.

The emperor looked at the corpse, not who the corpse was, but the eye-catching totem on the corpse's face.

This is the national emblem of the previous dynasty!
The emperor suppressed his anger and asked, "Who was the first to discover the corpse?"

The general bent down and replied: "It's a second-class maid in the imperial concubine's palace. In order to go back quickly to get the cloak for the imperial concubine, the maid took a shortcut and met her."

The emperor looked at Xiao Heqi who was yawning at one side, how could Old Prince Xiao's grandson be here.

The emperor's eyes swept over a young boy in thin white clothes who kept his head down.

"Why are Heqi and the Ninth Prince here?" the emperor asked lightly.

Before the general could speak, Xiao Heqi said: "After the palace banquet, I saw that the palace gate was closed too early, so I planned to visit my cousin. On the way, I happened to meet the Ninth Prince who was going back alone, so we walked together for a while, and happened to meet someone in the woods. The frightened lady-in-waiting who ran out."

The cousin Xiao Heqi spoke of was the daughter of the Xie family from his father's family, who entered the palace as a concubine and is now one of the four concubines.

Usually the emperor could still smile at Xiao Heqi, but tonight he was really annoyed by the pattern of the former dynasty.

The emperor looked at the Ninth Prince of the Southern Kingdom, who had been silent all this time, and said, "Ninth Prince, do you know the deceased?"

"know."

"Eunuch Li was sent by me to take care of you. This morning he even brought you clothes and medicinal food. In the evening, he picked you up for the palace banquet. After the palace banquet, he should have come to pick you up. He Qi said you would go back alone? What did you end up with?" When did you see him?"

"In the morning, I saw Eunuch Li for the last time in the morning. No one came to pick me up in the evening. I was almost late for the palace banquet I went by myself."

Ruan Xiaoli was indeed almost late for the palace banquet. Many people can prove this fact, and there are also people who can prove that 'he' came to the palace banquet alone.

No one came to pick him up at night?
The emperor looked at one of the guards, and the guards immediately said: "I have seen it, Mr. Li died in the evening."

In the evening, it was time for Eunuch Li to pick up the proton of the Southern Kingdom.

Nanyuan, who was going to the proton, had to pass by the edge of this forest. Could it be that he went to pick up the proton, but was dragged into the forest by Yu Nian and killed?So the Ninth Prince said that no one came to pick him up.

I can't ask for any clues, but it seems that things have been sorted out.

Seeing the pattern on the corpse's face out of the corner of the emperor's eyes, he burst into anger!

Damn it, where is that group of remnants? Why are they still lingering after so many years? He knew that they deliberately made him feel uneasy, but he still couldn't calm down.

If he didn't kill those people, he would never be able to sit on the dragon chair with peace of mind.

In the past, all the maids and eunuchs were killed, but this time he killed the eunuch who was close to him, so maybe he will be the next one!
The emperor flicked his sleeves and said angrily, "Take the corpse away and let the police do a good autopsy."

"Yes."

"Heqi, the palace gate is locked now. You can stay in the palace to rest tonight. Concubine Xie is also resting at this late hour. You can go over to have dinner with her tomorrow morning. You two have not seen each other for a long time. .” The emperor finished speaking as calmly as possible.

After speaking, the emperor left, followed by more than half of the guards.

A small number of people were still standing in front of the open space. The prince beside the emperor did not leave. The prince stepped forward and said, "Young Lord, my servant will take you to the courtyard where you rest."

Concubine Xie had no children for seven years in the palace, and she loved this nephew the most. Xiao Heqi was often brought by his mother to visit the palace when he was a child, so there was a courtyard in the palace dedicated to him to rest.

Xiao Heqi glanced at Ruan Xiaoli, and then left with Wang Gonggong.

The guards left again, leaving two guards to follow Ruan Xiaoli.

The guard said: "His Royal Highness Ninth Prince, this subordinate will escort you back, this way please."

Ruan Xiaoli left without saying a word and followed the guards.
.
When I got up early the next morning, the palace was calm and there was no sound at all, as if the corpse was found last night and the emperor came over, but there was no gossip in such a big battle today.

These are all as Xiao Heqi expected, the remnants of the previous dynasty killed the former imperial eunuch, this matter is too disgraceful, as expected, there is no sound at all today.

Ruan Xiaoli is free now, it feels so good to kill someone and have someone wipe his ass.

Ruan Xiaoli was a little bit cold last night, and his nose was stuffy at night, so in order to get points, Ruan Xiaoli pretended to be very cold and staggered out to find someone to find an imperial doctor.

A maid was found, and the maid promised to invite the imperial physician for her, but the imperial physician did not come until the sun set.

Ruan Xiaoli stood lonely in the yard for a long time, and finally smiled wryly: "You are in a foreign country, you really shouldn't expect too much."

Then she staggered back to the house.

Back in the room, she immediately straightened her back and walked briskly. Ruan Xiaoli sat down and poured a cup of tea: "Xiao Evil, I've earned you a wave of points."

The little evil voice in his head was excited: "It's a big wave of points! Your acting skills are amazing!"

The more resemblance the acting is, the more points will be added. Now it completely fits the original plot, and the points are greatly reduced!
Ruan Xiaoli has a bit of cold and doesn't have a good appetite, and she doesn't want to eat as the sun goes down, so Ruan Xiaoli simply washes up and prepares to go to bed.

As soon as he lay down, he heard the sound of the yard door being pushed open, followed by footsteps.

The footsteps were familiar.
