Ruxue shook her head and looked at Yang Xuyao.""I told you, it was the first time I saw him in the Mirror Moon Kingdom.”Looking at Yang Xuyao's confused expression, Ruxue said,"" Three years ago, I had already made some progress in my studies. My parents wanted me to go out and explore the world to gain some experience, so I went to the Tianwu Kingdom…" Wearing a human skin mask, Ru Xue walked on the streets. She felt that there were especially many patrolling soldiers today."What's going on? This is the tenth batch of soldiers today, and they're all heading in the same direction.”Suddenly, Ruxue heard someone whispering behind her.""Hey, have you heard? The Beiling King who disappeared ten years ago is dead. Someone found his skeleton at the bottom of the cliff.”"I've heard, I've heard. I've also heard that even His Majesty the Emperor can personally go and take a look.”"Sigh, the Northern Mountain King is His Majesty's younger brother. When the Northern Mountain King went missing, His Majesty searched the entire Tianwu Kingdom and even killed everyone in the Northern Mountain King's Mansion. Tsk, tsk, he didn't let anyone off.”The man shook his head.
Ruxue walked over curiously and asked,""Big brothers, who is the Beiling King you are talking about? Why did he go missing?" The middle-aged man who had just spoken glanced at her and said,""Little girl, you're not a local, are you?”Ruxue nodded and said,"I'm from Yun Qing's country. I came here to play. But for some reason, there are so many soldiers today. I don't even have the mood to play."”
The middle-aged man said," Sigh, someone found a skeleton at the bottom of the cliff outside the city this morning and reported it to the authorities. The authorities checked the deceased's belongings and said that the deceased was the Beiling King who had disappeared ten years ago. The Beiling King was the Emperor's most beloved younger brother, so of course, he had to report it to the imperial court. After the Emperor found out, he said that he would leave the palace to verify it personally.”
Ruxue thought for a moment and said,"Where are the bones?"”The middle-aged man didn't mind. He thought that she was just someone who wanted to watch the show, so he advised,"Little girl, you also want to go and watch the show, right? I advise you not to go. That place is heavily guarded. Those who went to watch the show have all been chased back.”Ruxue smiled." It's fine. I'm just going to take a look. If I can't see it, I'll just come back. I'm bored anyway."”The middle-aged man sighed and pointed in the direction of the soldiers."Go straight that way. Other than the city gate, you'll reach it after walking another ten miles.”Ruxue thanked him and left.
Looking at the soldiers who were patrolling every five steps, Ruxue sighed. She hid herself and quickly jumped over the patrolling soldiers. Before she could take a breath, she saw that there were also patrolling soldiers every five steps. Ruxue was puzzled and wanted to see what was going on. Dodging those soldiers was a piece of cake for her agile body.
Just as Ruxue saw the skeleton, she heard a sharp voice.""The Emperor has arrived." A few soldiers beside the skeleton immediately knelt down and said,"Long live my emperor." After a while, a bright yellow carriage stopped in front of them. The eunuch who drove the carriage immediately jumped off the carriage and took out a small stool from behind. The curtain of the carriage was raised, and a middle-aged man wearing a bright yellow dragon robe walked out of the carriage. He looked at them and said,"Rise." "Thank you, Emperor." The few of them stood up and retreated to the side.
The eunuch helped the emperor to the front of the skeleton. The emperor looked at the jade pendant beside the skeleton. The eunuch immediately squatted down and picked up the jade pendant. He wiped it clean with his sleeve and handed it to the emperor. The emperor took the jade pendant and looked at it for a while. He closed his eyes and said softly,"Royal brother, why are you leaving just like that?”
Yang Xuyao looked at Ruxue." You've said so much. What are you trying to say?"”"I want to say that I think Hong Zhixin is that Beiling King.”"What?" Yang Xuyao was shocked. Why are you so sure?"
Ruxue shook her head." I can't be sure. I'm just suspicious. I can only be sure that the skeleton doesn't belong to the Beiling King."”"Why are you so sure?" Yang Xuyao asked.”Ruxue recalled." Because among the deceased's belongings, only the broken sword in his hand could be seen to have been exposed to the wind and sun for a long time. From the fragments of his clothes, it seemed like he was a traveler in Jianghu. As for the jade pendant, although it looked a little old, there was not much dust at all. It looked like it was placed there that morning.”
Yang Xuyao thought for a moment and said," But according to what you said, there should only be the emperor and his people at that time. Is there a need for him to act?"”Ruxue frowned and thought for a moment.”Yang Xuyao didn't understand. He looked at her and Ruxue said,""At that time, I wasn't the only one hiding on the tree. After they left, many people came out and saw that the place where the bones were lying had also left. I'm afraid that those people were also suspicious.”
Yang Xuyao thought for a moment and said,"What does that have to do with Hong Zhixin?"”"I don't know if I'm overthinking it or not, but I think Hong Zhixin is a little similar to that emperor."”
