Chapter 78
This is a long-abandoned house, which was originally used to store sundries, but at this moment, there are many palace guards gathered here.Situ Changqing, who had just returned to the palace not long ago, was squatting next to the corpse, looking at the bloodless corpse, Situ Changqing felt troublesome for the first time.

"My lord, Wu Zuo has checked clearly. This female corpse is the same as the usual ones. They all died of excessive blood loss."

Listening to his subordinate's report, Situ Changqing touched his chin and fell into deep thought.He didn't understand why all the palace maids died.Why did the murderer kill them so cruelly?

If you don't understand why, just don't want to.The top priority is to find out who the murderer is, otherwise one person will die every few days, which may cause panic.

He was about to order his subordinates to take the body away when he heard a person, then stopped and walked towards that person.

Yu Xin, who was just passing by here, never expected to meet a dead person here.She had also heard a little about the rumors in the palace, but it was the first time she had seen it with her own eyes.

Su Shangliu, who was following beside her, tugged at Yu Xin's sleeve and whispered, "Someone is coming towards you."

Yu Xin followed what Su Shangliu pointed at, and looked at the man walking towards her.It was a middle-aged man who seemed to be in his forties, with a square face and a straight back. Looking at his eyes, he should be a stubborn person.

This person is a new face to her, and he must have just returned to the palace recently, otherwise, according to his official rank, it is impossible for her not to have seen him.

"See Lord Ghost Face." Facing Situ Changqing's salute, Yu Xin hurriedly returned the salute.

"This adult is polite."

"Don't dare, you still call your subordinate Situ Changqing directly. This title of an adult is not dared to be called by your subordinates."

"This……"

"The leader of the imperial guards under him, Situ Changqing. He was originally responsible for protecting the emperor's safety. Last year, he went out on business, so this is only the first time that your lord and his subordinates have met." Situ Changqing thought that Yu Xin didn't understand His identity, so he quickly explained it.

At first glance, he knew that he was a stubborn person, but unexpectedly he was also a person with a high sense of hierarchy.He must have known everything about the banquet that day, that's why he acted accordingly.

Yu Xin looked at the corpse not far away, and asked curiously: "Excuse me, have the causes of death of those court ladies been found out?"

"My lord, Wu Zuo only found out that the maid, like the ones lost before, died of excessive blood loss. The rest were not found out."

Facing Situ Changqing's restraint, Yu Xin had no choice but to follow his will and call her an adult.

"I want to see the corpses of those maids, is it possible?" Yu Xin looked up at Situ Changqing and said in a discussing tone.

"My lord, please." Situ Changqing immediately stepped aside and made way for her to pass.
