"Da, da…"
"Move aside, quickly move aside!"
In the city, the sound of horses galloping was heard. It was a messenger dressed in white clothes and white feathers riding a horse at full speed.
A terrible murder case happened in Chang 'an Fortress!
The victim was a third-grade official, Prince Zhan Shi!
A third-grade official was killed! It was no different from the collapse of Chang 'an's sky!
The murderer's method of committing the crime was extremely cruel. Five horses were not enough to describe it!
The scene was extremely bloody. The corpse looked like it had been bitten by a demon. It took three coroners to clean it up.
This matter was so serious that it caused a huge earthquake in the court!
Li Shimin personally ordered the Duke of E, Cheng Zhijie, to be in charge of the case. Prime Minister Fang Xuanling even issued a death order:
Search every household in Chang 'an to find the murderer!
What was a third-grade official?
Rank-1 and 2 of the Tang Dynasty represented a kind of glory and status. They belonged to the nobility and did not have much power to manage the country. The third rank was the highest level of management in the empire. The prime minister was also a third rank!
The death of a third-grade official was tantamount to the most serious provocation to Zhenguan's prosperity!
The one who was killed was the Crown Prince Zhan Shi. Was this a sign of something?!
Crown Prince Zhan Shi was in charge of the Eastern Palace's government affairs. To put it in layman's terms, he exercised the power of the Crown Prince!
He was a fake Crown Prince!
Now that the Crown Prince Zhan Shi had been brutally killed by an assassin, it was imaginable how shocked the court was!
Li Shi Min sent more troops to strengthen the protection of the Crown Prince's Residence.
However, it was meaningless. The Crown Prince was not in the residence at the moment!
Of course, Li Chengqian did not know about the changes in Chang 'an Fortress.
……
Green mountains and clear waters, the Great Tang's scenery was boundless!
At this moment, Li Chengqian and his group leisurely walked onto the main road. Occasionally, they could see one or two pedestrians.
Qiu Yi was carrying two big bags on his back, and his forehead was slightly sweaty.
He finally couldn't take it anymore!
He looked at Qiu Wansu in confusion and asked," Sister, why don't we take the carriage? Aren't we tired walking like this?"!”
Qiu Wansu pursed her lips and turned her gaze to Li Chengqian.
It was Li Chengqian who didn't allow them to sit in the carriage!
Li Chengqian laughed," This prince's body is precious. How would I be willing to endure the jolts of that carriage? It's better to walk!”
Qiu Yi was stunned." Isn't the carriage only for people with high status?!”
Li Chengqian snorted, expressing his disdain.
"When you sat in the carriage, did you ever feel comfortable?”he asked.
Qiu Yi seemed particularly serious about Li Chengqian's question. He thought about it carefully and finally came to a conclusion.
"Actually, it's not that comfortable. It's indeed too bumpy!”
"Then that's good! The ground was uneven, and the wheels were made of hard wood. Sitting in that carriage was like shaking chaff! This prince will not sit in that carriage!"
Qiu Yi's little face was bitter. Hearing Li Chengqian say this, he also felt that walking was good!
If he didn't have these two big bags on his back!
Beside him, the woman Bai Shi said in a slightly strange tone," The Crown Prince is indeed not an ordinary person. He has his own views."”
This was the first time she had heard of a crown prince who was willing to walk rather than sit in a carriage!
However, she also vaguely felt that something was wrong.
Why did the Crown Prince refer to himself as a prince?!
Usually, they would call him this prince…
It wasn't a big problem, so the woman didn't think too much about it and continued on her way.
The journey wasn't too far. After walking for less than two hours, they arrived at the foot of Shui Qingguan Mountain.
The grass is luxuriant, and the trees are green and beautiful.
The cool breeze from the mountains made people feel very comfortable.
Right at this moment, Li Chengqian's ears moved slightly, but he heard a different sound in the breeze…
He remained calm and said that he would go to the side and let Qiu Wansu take her auntie and brother away first.
The three of them looked at him strangely as they watched Li Chengqian burrow into a small bush at the side.
"The Crown Prince must have gone to pee." Qiu Yi said as he carried two big bags.
"Don't say such vulgar words!" Madam Bai looked at him sternly.
Qiu Yi immediately lowered his head, but he was still a little unconvinced. How was it vulgar to say that he was peeing…
Of course, Li Chengqian was not going to pee. He heard some strange sounds in the wind.
The woman moaned in pain and panted!
It was a flirtatious struggle with a hint of desire.
In such a small forest and with such a low moan, the Great Tang was truly open!
However, it was not that simple!
This was an important place for the royal family. He was very curious about who dared to come here for a night out.!
As they got closer, Li Chengqian hid behind a tree and observed the area with excitement.
"This is…"
After seeing it clearly, Li Chengqian's pupils suddenly constricted!
It wasn't adultery, only one woman!
The black coat had some exquisite tassels on it. At this moment, the coat had fallen to the waist, and the exposed skin was as white as a piece of peerless jade. The curves were explosive!
However, there was a terrifying knife mark from his back to his waist!
She was painfully wiping her wounds and preparing to bandage them.
There was a blood-stained blade by the hand that supported his body.
The killer had just killed someone!
Li Chengqian immediately recognized it!
It looked like she had escaped here. Who did she kill?!
Li Chengqian had seen this woman before!
Looking at her beautiful back, she was the woman in the backyard of the rouge shop in East City!
The last time he saw her bathing, this beautiful back had left a deep impression on him.
This time, he finally saw her side profile. Her crystal clear nose bridge was high, her almond-shaped eyebrows were like a painting, and her red lips were very exquisite.
She was a rare cold beauty!
So she was an assassin!
" Who is it?!"
The woman was very alert and noticed the abnormality behind her.
Li Chengqian subconsciously dodged first!
No matter what, he was peeping!
Yet another time!
The woman instantly pulled her clothes to cover a large area of her tender white skin, and then she brought a knife over!
His eyes were filled with killing intent!
Just now, she saw a fleeting shadow that instantly overlapped with the shadow from more than a month ago!
She was going crazy!
She was so angry that her entire body was trembling, and her face was flushed red!
The same person!
She was sure that it was the same person who had peeked at her bathing last time!
"What kind of monster are you?”She clenched her teeth tightly and trembled with anger.
She couldn't have been followed!
In other words, this man had coincidentally seen her body twice!
"Go to hell!"
She lost her mind and chased after Li Chengqian.
Seeing that she had put on her clothes, Li Chengqian immediately stopped!
"Who exactly are you?"
He stood high on the treetop, his face full of heroic spirit as he asked in a deep voice.
Seeing that it was a handsome man, Gu Youxuan felt a little better.
"No! Pervert, give me your life!"
With this strange thought, she became even more embarrassed and angry. Using the last of her strength, she threw the short knife at Li Chengqian!
