Chapter 368 Vermillion Bird Envoy!

As the sky in the east turned white, the entire Dongzhou city was bathed in the cool morning light, opening a prosperous day.

The cries of roosters in the streets echoed each other.

Businessmen and vendors appeared on the streets one after another, and the cold streets began to become lively.

“Get out! Get out of everything!”

A shout came from the official road.

Dozens of riders in the Vermillion Bird Hall of Charlie’s official uniforms are galloping in. The sound of their hoofs is swift and thunderous, and the vendors who are setting up stalls on both sides evade.

Turning to Hongxing Road, everyone stopped at Yunzheng Palace.

Dressed in a black robe and wearing a silver Vermillion Bird mask, the white silk feather sprinted into the palace, followed by Chen Mu in disguise.

The palace was shrouded in a bleak haze.

Entering the lobby, I saw the crying prince Yun Zheng lying in front of the coffin, wailing and cursing in his mouth.

Inside the uncovered coffin is the body of the assassinated princess.

Shizi stood aside.

The sad face was full of anger and gloom.

After seeing Bai Xianyu, his eyes moved and he didn’t say a word, and his clenched fist tightened again.

Bai Xianyu walked to the coffin and watched quietly.

The princess looks in her forties.

The appearance is not beautiful, nor ugly, and the skin is not particularly good, but there is a simple temperament in the mountains.

There was a fatal wound on her chest.

Chen Mu, who was next to him, took a closer look, and concluded that it was a fatal arrow wound, which hit the heart directly.

According to the guards, the palace encountered the assassins around the beginning of this morning. Several guards in the palace were assassinated. The prince was lucky to escape, but the princess was not so lucky.



The assassination of the princess was no small matter.

If the murderer cannot be arrested as soon as possible, whether it is in North Korea or civilians, it will cause controversy.

“Specifically talk about the situation.”

Bai Xianyu glanced at the crying prince, and asked the housekeeper next to him.

The housekeeper sighed with a bitter face, and replied: “Not long after the old slave got up this morning, he heard someone calling an assassin. When the old slave left the inner courtyard, he saw two guards lying in a pool of blood.”

“Do you see what the assassin looks like? How many people are there?”

Bai Xianyu asked.

The housekeeper shook his head: “I didn’t see what they looked like. There seemed to be three assassins. They rushed through the guards and killed the prince’s room. At that time, the prince was not there, only the princess… When the old slave arrived, the princess already……”

The butler shed tears, choked up and did not continue.

Bai Xianyu stared at the corpse of the princess in the coffin and asked, “Where are the other guards’ bodies?”

“Outside the yard,” the butler said hurriedly.

Bai Xianyu brought Chen Mu to the courtyard. There were five bodyguards in total, all with fatal arrow wounds.

But strangely, no arrows were found on the body.

Chen Mu gently pulled away the clothes of one of the guards, touched the wound with his hand, and carefully observed for a while and then said lightly: “It should be Frostbolt.”

Frostbolt?

Bai Xianyu frowned.

Generally, there are fewer assassins using this kind of Hidden Weapons.

“What do you think?” Bai Xianyu looked at Chen Mu.

Chen Mu looked around the yard and said, “Last time Lord Yunzheng offered the Jiufeng Coffin for his assassination, it shouldn’t be the same group of forces. Assassinating the princess at this time always feels something to attract The purpose of our attention.”

Bai Xianyu thoughtfully.

Could it be that the handling of Dongzhou officialdom in the past two days was too radical, which caused some officials to be dissatisfied and panicked.

So you want to create a serious case to distract her?

There is such a possibility.

“It must be the anti-thief from the Tiandihui!”

At this moment, Ji Heming, the elder son, rushed out of the lobby full of anger, pushing away the guards who wanted to stop him, “Except for the anti-thief from the Heaven and Earth Society, who will come to our palace to go wild!”

He pointed to Bai Xianyu angrily and said: “You, the Charon Vermillion Bird, why haven’t you caught the anti-thief! My father was almost assassinated before. Your Vermillion Bird agent said several times that he would guarantee his safety, but Now my mother was assassinated and killed. What did your Vermillion Bird do for food!”

Seeing his wife being reprimanded, Chen Mu was immediately upset.

Before Bai Xianyu could speak, he coldly said, “Isn’t it supposed to blame your imperial guards? Since your father has been assassinated several times, you, as the son of the world, should prepare early instead of waiting for others to teach you how. Do.”

“You are such a thing, you dare to talk to this world like this!”

Looking at Chen Mu’s clothes, he thought he was a guard, and the angry son was even more irritating, and he had no scruples in his cursing.

However, as soon as the voice fell, a slap was severely slapped on Shizi’s face.

The latter was completely unprepared and was fanned out.

But Bai Xianyu did it.

Everyone around was stunned by this scene, thinking that they were dazzled by something wrong, and they were all dumbfounded.

Although Vermillion Bird had great power in the Great Yan Dynasty, he couldn’t just assault an elder son.

After all, the son represents the face of the royal family.

Even Chen Mu was shocked.

Bai Xianyu walked to the dazed son of the world, staring at him condescendingly, cold and beautiful eyes flowing with indifference:

“As a son of the world, no matter how arrogant you are, you must know how to think about things with your head. If your mouth is not clean, the officer doesn’t mind sending you to the prison of life and death to educate your father!”

Ji Heming wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stared coldly at the mad woman in front of him.

The anger burned in his chest like a furnace, a blue vein on the temples was lightly beating, and his face was cold, but he didn’t speak.

The butler hurried over to complete the game: “Master Vermillion Bird, the most urgent task now is to catch the murderer of the princess as soon as possible. Whether it is the counter-thief of the Tiandihui or other forces, he must not be allowed to go unpunished.”



“Don’t worry, this official will investigate.”

Bai Xianyu didn’t bother to stay here, and asked Heimeng to keep the transcript, and then left the palace with Chen Mu.

Originally planned to go back on horseback, but the woman called a carriage and sat alone with Chen Mu.

“Has Tiandihui have been moving recently?”

Bai Xianyu asked.

Chen Mu shook his head: “There is nothing moving at Nan Feng Rudder. As for whether the other rudder will act or not. But I think this assassination should not have been done by the World Club.”

The woman took off her mask and leaned against the car window, thinking quietly.

After thinking about it, seeing the man staring at her with a strange look, he touched his cheek in wonder: “What’s the matter?”

Chen Mu smiled and said, “The lady was very fierce just now.”

Bai Xianyu’s pretty face blushed, and he hesitated for a while and quietly shook Chen Mu’s hand, with a touch of dominance and gentleness on her charming face: “Anyway, I don’t allow others to bully you in front of me.”

Chen Mu smiled and put the woman in his arms: “I was so fierce that I scared my husband.”

Bai Xianyu was a little nervous when he heard the words, looked at the man’s bright eyes and whispered: “If the husband doesn’t like this, the concubine body…the concubine body will not be fierce again in the future.”

Chen Mu didn’t expect the other party’s mind to be so sensitive.

But I still understand when I think about it.

Bai Xianyu originally hoped to maintain the image of his wife with the gentle character of a good wife, not a devil.

Sometimes after being used to acting in the manner of Vermillion Bird, I am afraid of letting the man thank you and affect the relationship between the two, but Chen Mu is more obsessed with the charm of the two-faced image of a lady.

He bowed his head and kissed the woman’s lips, and smiled: “The lady sometimes gets fierce, which makes her husband very excited.”

For a while, Bai Xianyu pinched the man with her bare hand, “I’m sick!”

But seeing the man really doesn’t seem to mind her fierce temperament, the inner worry is also a bit less.

“Speaking of how the coffin of Lord Yunzheng was lost last time?”

Chen Mu asked curiously.

Bai Xianyu then remembered that the matter had not been explained to Chen Mu, so he explained the situation at the time and analyzed: “I am sure that the lake is a teleportation formation, so Jiufeng’s coffin can disappear under our eyelids.”

“Wait, the formation you said…”

Chen Mu suddenly frowned, and after thinking about it for a while, his eyes suddenly lit up. “That secret path-yes, it is definitely there!”
