Chapter 236 Murder Case
"It's you again, you're really looking for death!" The man in black finished his words and attacked Chen Qingci.

There are many people in black, and reinforcements are coming.

Chen Qingci was outnumbered and soon became exhausted and exhausted.

But he still firmly protected Chen Shulan.

Chen Shulan shouted: "Leave me alone, let's go!"

Chen Qingci said nothing and tried his best to deal with the attacks of the men in black.

The knife passed by and stabbed into Chen Qingci's abdomen.

Chen Shulan cried: "Go quickly, go quickly!"

The man in black sneered: "No one can leave!"

An arrow from his sleeve flew towards Chen Shulan. Chen Qingci tried his best and jumped up to block her.

I wanted to use my sword to knock away the short arrow, but in the end I didn't have enough strength.

The short arrow hit Chen Qingci on the shoulder.

Another slash came.

Chen Qing couldn't avoid it. His leg was injured and he knelt in front of Chen Shulan covered in blood. He could no longer hold the sword.

"Miss, you..." Chen Qingci only spoke, blood dripping from the corners of his lips, and he looked sad: "I can't protect you."

Chen Shulan used all her strength to crawl forward.

The man in black's blade also pierced Chen Qingci's body at this time, blood burst out, and blood beads sprinkled on Chen Shulan's face.

A sharp pain hit her limbs, and she opened her eyes hard, watching the young man fall in front of her, and everything around her seemed to freeze suddenly.

The man in black approaching with a knife, the surrounding street scene, and the broken and fallen debris were all blurred in her sight.

Time began to move backwards rapidly.

She saw the spring sun, autumn leaves, and flying snow in northern Hebei.

There was a young man practicing his sword under the tree. She ran over to him. The young man was full of joy, but he politely took a step back and called her "Miss" in a reserved manner.

"Hey--"

Xie Changyuan looked down at Chen Shulan, who looked like a stone sculpture. The folding fan in his hand was stained with blood.

He and Lu Hanqiu met today to enjoy the lanterns and dance, but unexpectedly they saw a murder happening halfway on the street.

As the minister of Dali Temple, Lu Hanqiu was usually very sensual and sensual, but he was unambiguous in the face of major events and immediately recruited people to maintain law and order and track down the assassins.

Xie Changyuan joined in the fun.

Who would have thought that this scene would come up.

He glanced at Chen Qingci, who was already lifeless, and then at Chen Shulan. He sighed secretly and squatted down, "Are you okay?"

Chen Shulan was like a puppet, staring blankly into the void, silently and without any reaction.

The personal commander followed Lei Ming and ran over: "Most of these people committed suicide. The leader stopped them, but they were seriously injured. They are now taken back by the people from Dali Temple."

"I saw a woman over there who was knocked unconscious by the force of her palm. She should be Miss Chen's maid."

"Oh."

Xie Changyuan nodded, looked back, raised his eyebrows and said, "Have all the people from Dali Temple evacuated?"

"Yes."

"Then what should she do?" Xie Changyuan flicked his fan and pointed at Chen Shulan: "Are these people only doing half of the work? They don't care whether they live or die even if they save people!"

Lei Ming was silent for a moment and whispered: "The city is in chaos now. I don't know what happened to these men in black. Dali Temple is trying their best to trace them, so... they left a message when they left, asking us to take care of them."

"..."

Xie Changyuan rubbed his forehead. After a moment of headache, he hit Chen Shulan on the back of the neck with the fan handle, knocking her unconscious. "You..." Before he could finish his words, Lei Ming had already walked over and picked her up not far away. Comatose woman.

Xie Changyuan pursed his lips and wanted to put the folding fan on his waist and put it away, but then he caught a glimpse of the blood on it. His eyes showed disgust, so he simply threw it aside and picked up Chen Shulan with an unhappy expression.

"Sir, I heard that the Chen family villa was on fire. The fire was very strong."

"I know." Xie Changyuan said quietly: "Let's take it back to the house first."

Xie Zhaozhao and Yun Qi had just moved to the east side of the overpass. The riot occurred on the west side of the overpass, to the north, which was a bit far away.

After the two heard it, they rushed over immediately, but they only saw a very tragic murder scene.

Chen Zhiyuan's body was found lying on the street, and he died with his eyes open.

The scene has been surrounded by people from Dali Temple, and Lu Hanqiu has also arrived. Although he is still wearing some fancy lavender brocade clothes, his expression is full of solemnity.

There is no trace of his usual carefree appearance.

Xie Zhaozhao watched Lu Hanqiu examine Chen Zhiyuan's body, interrogate the surrounding witnesses, and check the knife marks left by the man in black and all the detailed clues at the scene.

At this moment, she absolutely believed that Lu Hanqiu could become the Minister of Dali Temple because of his true ability.

No wonder Emperor Xuanwu tolerated him so much.

Chen Zhiyuan and several guards were all dead. They were killed with one blow, which was quick and accurate.

The assassination affected the people nearby. Three people died and more than a dozen were injured. There were also court officials who were traveling with Chen Zhiyuan. One was killed and the other was injured. Needless to say, the casualties of the bodyguards.

These men in black are completely insane.

The injured official was in very bad condition and was about to die at any time. Yun Qi ordered Lin Ye to ask someone to carry him to Dali Temple for treatment. He also summoned Xuan Ming to assist Lu Hanqiu in handling the case.

Xie Zhaozhao squatted next to Chen Zhiyuan's body and looked at his fatal wounds, "It's Miao Dao."

"Yes." Yun Qi came over and frowned at the gradually turning purple wound: "And poison was used to seal the throat when the blood was seen... Let Mr. Lu check what kind of poison it was first."

Xie Zhaozhao nodded, "There has been no murder case in the capital for many years. Such a big thing happened tonight, and the person who died was Pingzhang Hou, the eldest son of King Zhongshan. I'm afraid the capital will not be peaceful for some time in the future."

"The emperor and the prince must have received news soon. You should enter the palace first."

"Well...it's not safe tonight, so go back early." Yun Qi looked cautious, "I'll ask Lin Zhen to bring a few people to see you off."

"No need, I can guarantee my own safety." Xie Zhaozhao shook his head and said, "Now the cause and effect of the matter are unknown. You need manpower to coordinate here. They will just stay and cooperate with you."

Yun Qi hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Then be careful."

Xie Zhaozhao wrote down the details of the scene, glanced at the dead bodies of men in black lying on the ground, looked away, and called Hongxiu back to his house.

On the way back, she heard that there was a fire in the Chen Family Villa, and the situation was very serious.

Jing Zhaoyin sent many people to put out the fire.

However, due to the dry weather before and after the New Year, the fire was too big and difficult to put out, and it also affected several surrounding businesses.

Xie Zhaozhao frowned: "It seems that these men in black are targeting the Chen family. I don't know what Miss Chen's situation is now..."

"I'll send someone to inquire about it." Hongxiu said, "Let's go back home first."

It's really uneasy outside.

Xie Zhaozhao nodded and sped up his return home.

When she returned to Liangguo's mansion, the first thing she did was to visit Xie Jiajia.

Neither Xie Jiajia nor the child left the house, and the child fell asleep.

Xie Zhaozhao made sure they were fine and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lao Wu brought someone back." Xie Jiajia pulled Xie Zhaozhao out. "He said it was too chaotic outside tonight, so he rescued her and asked the doctor from the house to come over. I was about to go see him, let's go together."
