Chapter 38 Si Gu Jian: Am I taking the blame again?(2/2)

"Your Highness, please take a look."

Li Yunrui winked at the personal palace maid, who quickly took the wooden box and opened it. She was also shocked. If it weren't for the physical fitness of a seventh-level warrior, she would have almost thrown the wooden box away.

go out.

The personal maid forced down her inner fear, walked slowly to Li Yunrui, and unfolded the wooden box for her to see.

When Li Yunrui saw clearly the face of the head in the wooden box, he was also frightened. His charming eyes were full of horror and disbelief.

"Yan Xiaoyi, he...is dead..."

After coming back to his senses, Li Yunrui sat up from the bed and paced back and forth beside the bed.

"He is the only ninth-grade Archery God in the world, how could he die so easily?"

The maid holding the wooden box was thinking of how to comfort her, but Li Yunrui knocked down the wooden box, pointed at the human head rolling on the ground and cursed with a ferocious face.

"Trash, I gave you so many soldiers and horses, and the two Netherworld monsters assisted you, but you couldn't kill him, and even got killed by others. What's the use of me raising you all these years!"

"A bunch of losers, damn it, damn them all!"

Li Yunrui's veins popped out and he smashed everything in the palace that could be pushed down. He gradually calmed down until he was exhausted.

"Who sent this wooden box?"

"Go back to Princess, no one saw it, it was the night guard who discovered it."

"You trash, you loser. This is the palace. People can come and leave when they want. What do the guards in the palace do?"

The personal maid lowered her head and asked cautiously: "Your Highness, do you want to inform Your Majesty of this matter?"

"Of course I have to tell His Majesty. I want to find out who is helping that kid in this capital."

Soon, the wooden box appeared in front of Emperor Qing's desk.

"Go and find me Chen Pingping."

When Chen Pingping pushed her wheelchair into the hall, she immediately spotted the human head in the wooden box.

"Commander Yan is dead?"

Emperor Qing snorted coldly: "Shouldn't I ask you about this? The only ninth-grade arrow god in the world died so quietly, and his head was even sent to my palace, and your inspection agency didn't even hear about it.

arrive?"

Chen Pingping quickly lowered her head and admitted her mistake: "Your Majesty, I really don't know about this, but according to a secret report from the front, Commander Yan secretly led 5,000 cavalry out of the camp ten days ago, and has been missing since then."

"Oh? Could it be that he was ambushed by the Northern Qi army?"

"Probably not. If he was really killed in an ambush, his head should be hung in front of the two armies to dampen our morale, instead of being sent to the palace."

Emperor Qing nodded: "This matter is indeed strange."

"Your Majesty, please speak frankly. There is Eunuch Hong Sichuan sitting in the palace. This person can quietly send the head to the palace. Could it be..."

Emperor Qing glanced at Eunuch Hou beside him: "Go and invite Eunuch Hong."

Not long after, Hong Sichi was brought in.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, today I was on duty outside the Queen Mother's palace and indeed encountered a man in black breaking in."

"So, is it true that a great master has sneaked into the palace?"

Hong Sitch shook his head: "I don't dare to lie. Even if you are not a great master, you are at least a person above the peak of the ninth rank. Otherwise, you will not be able to escape from me."

"Well, Mr. Hong, thank you for your hard work. You can go down and rest first."

"Old slave, please retire."

A flash of light flashed in Emperor Qing's eyes: "Could it be him?"

"Your Majesty, do you mean Si Gu Jian?" Chen Pingping asked tentatively.

"Other than him, who else dares to break into the palace at night?" Emperor Qing waved his hand after speaking: "Your inspection agency must investigate this matter in detail internally. Externally, let's call it an accidental death in battle."

"I understand."

Chen Pingping returned to the inspection institute and immediately called Zhu Ge, the head of the first division, and Yan Ruohai, the head of the fourth division, to explain the situation.

Both of them were inexplicably horrified.

"Dean, the Inspection Institute just received a secret letter today. The death of Commander Yan may be related to Qin Ming, the general of Dingzhou."

Chen Pingping shook her head at the two men: "The national war is imminent. Northern Qi has increased its troops by 100,000 troops and reached the border of Dingzhou. The war is about to break out. If there is a change of generals at this time, who can take Qin Ming's place?"

"In all things, the overall situation is the most important thing, and you should not act on your own whim."

"Well, everything is for Qingguo."

At the same time, Fan Xian had returned to Fan Mansion with the key to the password box and met Wuzhu.

"Uncle Wu Zhu, I got the key. Have you put the wooden box away?"

"Um."

"Oh, it's a pity that I didn't get to see the eldest princess's expression at that time. It must have been wonderful."
