Chapter 498 Arrow Array
Zi An's mind suddenly cleared. Seven people died, five were found at the scene, and two were alive. Then, these two survivors must have been prepared in advance. It was their purpose to confess after being tortured.
In this way, there are still two corpses. At this juncture, the Grand Concubine has no way to transport the corpses out of the palace, because since the assassination, the guards in the palace have become much stricter. The defense against the air is that if you walk in the palace at night, you may hear the breathing sound of the big tree, which is the person he arranged.
The body is still in the palace.
As long as the bodies of the two assassins are found, her innocence can be restored.
"Are you sure that seven died?" Zian reconfirmed.
Sun Fang'er said firmly: "It's definitely seven. There are only me, the imperial concubine, and seven assassins in the palace. Once the poisonous powder is sprinkled, anyone who inhales it will die. Of course, I am an exception. I developed the poisonous powder. All the poisons are pre-tested, I am resistant to the poison, I will be poisoned, but I will not die."
Zian recalled what the old matriarch said about releasing arrows, and asked, "When the assassins came, there were seven of them. The old matriarch said that there were people shooting arrows outside, but no arrows were found at the scene. Do you know why?"
Sun Fang'er smiled sarcastically, "Do you still need to ask me? The scene can be cleaned up so quickly, except for the guards around the imperial concubine who are the imperial guards."
Zian understood what she meant. If it was a noble concubine who was a human being, it would not be surprising, but if it was an imperial army, it would be a traitor.
"Thank you, I see." Zi'an cupped his hands and walked out.
After she went out, she told Zhuang Zhuang that she must protect Sun Fang'er, because the Concubine Gui would definitely attack again.
This time she did not kill Sun Fang'er, so her strategy would have worries. As long as King Nanhuai finds Sun Fanger, Sun Fanger will detoxify him. Sun Fanger has a deep-seated fear of King Nanhuai. Don't dare to disobey in front of you.
She asked King Ye and King Liang to find the bodies of the two assassins, but she had no way to find them.
Carrying the medicine box, packing up some clothes, and taking the knife boss and Xiao Sun, Zi'an went to Xiwei Palace to "go to jail"
.
After Zian left, Zhuang Zhuang ordered to block the news, so that the news of Sun Fang'er's awakening was not allowed to spread.
This time the Night King personally dispatched and sent people to keep an eye on Ci'an Palace.
He agrees with Zian's words, the assassin's corpse cannot be sent out of the palace, the weather is cold now, the corpse can be stored for two or three days without smelling, but the corpse has to be disposed of and cannot be stored in Ci'an Palace forever.
At the same time, the Night King investigated the forbidden army who entered Ci'an Palace that day to see who took the arrow.
The investigation was easy to find out that it was Liang Shulin, the guard commander of the former Prince of the Eastern Palace. This Master Liang was originally convicted after the fall of the Liang family, but was finally washed and included in the ranks of the Forbidden Army. If the past is good, however, it can still be regarded as keeping the official position.
The Night King did not disclose Liang Shulin, but talked to him privately.
Liang Shulin was very uncooperative at first, but when the Night King took him to another courtyard and saw his lovely little actress, he compromised.
He has worked with the Concubine Gui for a long time and knows many things about the Concubine Gui.
At the same time, the Night King came to Yilan Palace.
Concubine Yi Gui has always looked down on this idle prince, when he came, she just greeted him lightly, and didn't even serve a cup of tea.
However, after the Night King said a word, she began to look at the prince who was rejected by the royal family again.
The Night King said: "Want to get rid of the concubine's control over you? Chu Xiaoqiao!"
Concubine Yi Gui's expression changed several times, and finally she sneered, "What did you say? Ye Wang, I don't understand."
"You know, if this king can call your name, it means that he already knows your origin. Chu Xiaoqiao, from Xianbei, was born in Qinlou, and her mother is the number one card in Qinlou. She was bought by the noble concubine for training when she was ten years old. You At the age of fifteen, Li Yilan ran away from marriage, and the Li family went out to look for her. They didn't find Li Yilan, but they found you. Everyone sent you to the palace as Li Yilan, and even the Li family couldn't figure it out. In 2010, because you were very indifferent to your natal family, no one from the Li family came to see you, and you only thought you hated your natal family because you didn't want to enter the palace."
Concubine Yi was silent for a while, and made tea herself, "If the prince has anything to say, just say it, don't talk about what you have and what you don't have."
Ye Wang smiled, "This king likes to talk to cheerful people, don't worry, as long as you control your small thoughts, you only need to control them after the seventh brother comes back, this king will not do anything to you, now this king and Liang Wang are in charge, There will be no room for demons and monsters to make trouble."
Concubine Yi said slowly: "I ask myself that I have been living a stable life in the harem, and I have never thought about it carefully, and I don't understand what the prince said. However, if the prince needs my help, or the court or even the entire Someone is causing trouble in the harem, and this noble concubine of this palace has a duty to come out to fortify the wall and clear the country."
"Okay, the concubine is waiting for the king's notice. When the concubine needs to come out, the king will naturally let the concubine come. The concubine had better not play any tricks. It is not fun to offend the king."
The Night King didn't drink his tea, stood up and turned to leave.
The seventh prince just came out of the inner hall, and said with a smile: "The emperor's uncle is here?"
Ye Wang raised his eyebrows, "Didn't you go to the school grounds today?"
The Seventh Prince came over, hugged the Night King's leg, raised his head and showed an innocent smile, "Royal Father said that someone framed me in the school grounds, so I was not allowed to go."
The Night King understood that besides framing Zi'an for a while, that scene also allowed him to be exempted from the school.
"Well, then learn from the teacher in the palace." The Night King said.
"Understood!" The seventh prince smiled, "Is the emperor leaving? Why don't you play with me for a while?"
He changed the angle of his hand slightly, trying to grab the Night King's hand, but the Night King twisted his wrist and opened his palm, only to see a golden needle between his two fingers, the golden needle glowed blue The light seemed to be poisoned.
The Night King pushed him away heavily, and the Seventh Prince fell to the ground. The smile was gone, replaced by a bloodthirsty viciousness and hatred.
Concubine Yigui stepped forward to help the seventh prince up, gritted her teeth, "My lord, go slowly!"
Before she could finish the slow walk, she made a gesture.
A cold arrow shot sharply from the door, wrapped in a gust of wind, and came towards the head of the Night King.
The Night King came without a weapon, and it was not easy to defend against it empty-handed, because the arrows came quickly and powerfully.
He bent down to avoid it, and the arrow grazed his forehead, only an inch away from hurting him.
Immediately, another rain of arrows flew over. He didn't have a weapon to shoot down the arrows, and it seemed impossible to avoid so many menacing arrows.
Concubine Yi dragged the Seventh Prince to hide behind the screen, and said coldly: "Night King, knowing too much is not a good thing."
She expected that the King of the Night would not be able to escape, and it was not what she wanted to do in Yilan Palace, but she could no longer choose.
She never thought that the Night King would become her rival, and she had always underestimated this man.
