Chapter 92
A word like thunder.

Shen Qianbi shuddered along with the general and the imperial guards who were digging up the corpses just now.

The Beiya Forbidden Army that escorted the King of Jin to Chuzhou was personally selected by the emperor, and Shen Duwei personally taught and led it, no more than 36 people.

When Shen Qianbi ordered the general to count the number of people just now, there were 31 people there.

Including the five corpses in front of us, there were exactly 36 people.

If these five people all died three hours ago, where did the five people who were dealing with the assassins around the convoy two hours ago come from?Where did they disappear out of thin air after the assassins retreated?
The more the general thought about it, the more frightened he became. A layer of white sweat was already forming on his back, and the cold armor added to the chill.

The soldiers digging up the corpse looked at each other, seeing infinite fear in each other's eyes.

"Little medical officer, don't talk nonsense to shake my soldiers. You are not a coordinator. How can you determine the exact time of death of these people?" Shen Qianbi also suddenly realized that something was wrong, but she is the commander. Don't panic, otherwise once the rumors of ghosts and gods spread, the morale of the army will disperse.

"Of course I know how to judge the time of death, otherwise I wouldn't dare to raise my head and speak in front of Captain Shen." Baili Changge's face was calm, but his thoughts were intertwined.

The death time of these five people, the appearance of those five mysterious people out of thin air, and the disappearance of 1 taels of silver, what is the connection between these things?

"Two hours ago, everyone's attention was on the assassin, so no one will notice that there is suddenly another person around or a new face, right?" Baili Changge looked at the assassin slightly in fear. Trembling General.

General Shen nodded, shaking his teeth, and answered vaguely: "Yes."

"In this way, those five people were probably assassins pretending to sneak in?" Shen Qianbi lowered her eyebrows and glanced at the imperial uniforms worn by the five corpses.

"There is such a possibility, but the chance is very small." Baili Changge recalled: "At that time, the convoy was surrounded by imperial troops, that is to say, at that time, everyone was guarding Yinzi and watching the surrounding movement If a person suddenly appears not far away, even if that person is wearing the clothes of the imperial army, it will look very abrupt." Then she continued: "But the possibility of an assassin pretending to be an assassin is not ruled out."

Shen Qianbi became more and more confused as she listened, and said puzzledly: "If your judgment is correct, these five people had died three hours ago, and the assassin had no chance to approach the convoy, then how did those five people die in full view? Appeared suddenly?"

"I can't figure this out yet." Baili Changge frowned and shook his head, "Now we can only look for clues on the boxes containing the silver."

Taking off the gloves, Baili Changge turned and walked back the way he came. The night was gradually closing, and the dawn with dazzling light broke through the black clouds and came through the shadows of thousands of trees.

She raised her hands uncomfortably to cover her eyes, and looked at the black clouds inlaid with a golden layer of dawn through the gaps between her fingertips. She suddenly felt very sleepy, not only mentally, but also psychologically tired.

Suddenly, I miss those investigation days when someone around me offered some help.

Thinking of this, she quickened her pace and pushed aside the bushes neatly.The morning dew wet the trousers, and her ankles were icy cold. She seemed to be unconscious, and her eyes were only fixed in one direction.

When we arrived at the place where the imperial guards camped, the sky had already brightened, and the last ray of light was burnt out of the fire, and green smoke was slowly rising, and the smell of barbecue was still pervasive.

It seems that Dudu has already eaten and slept.

The heart that had been tense all night finally relaxed, Baili Changge took out the water bag, poured clean water to wash his face, dried it with his sleeve, and went straight to Ye Hen's tent.

Opening the curtain, I only saw Dudu's peaceful sleeping face, which was quiet and beautiful.

Leaf marks are not in it.

Feeling tense, Baili Changge quickly retreated and glanced around in bewilderment.Seeing the guards guarding the night, she hurried over and asked, "Where is the prince? Why isn't he here?"

"My lord got up just now, and said he wanted to check those boxes from yesterday." The soldier said timidly, "We can't stop them."

"Okay, I see." Baili Changge's heart sank in his throat, and he turned around and walked towards the convoy.

Behind a thick pine tree, I finally saw Ye Hen who was frowning in thought. He had already changed into clean and tidy clothes. A little tired, and the lip line is also slightly pale.

"My lord, why did you run out without taking a rest?" Baili Changge walked around the pine tree and stood diagonally opposite him.

Ye Hen turned around and was stunned for a moment.

A handful of clear water washed away the intentionally smeared color on her face. She stood under the green shadow mottled bushes, on her clean and refined face, the water stains were reflected by the sunlight. Her hair was in a bun, her sideburns were a little messy, she seemed to ignore it, and trotted over, her breathing was short and slightly disordered, her mouth opened and closed due to slight panting.

He raised his eyes, and his eyes locked on her somewhat dark circles.

He knew that she hadn't slept all night.

He had already shattered the poisonous arrow yesterday, but he never expected that the other party would hide the poisonous needle in the poisonous arrow. The arrow shattered, and the poisonous needle came out, piercing directly into his chest with lightning speed. back.

At that moment, he was thankful, glad that he was the one who was recruited, thankful that she didn't push him away at that moment, thankful that he was able to hold her in his arms again after so many years—although it was under unavoidable circumstances Down.

And then in a daze, I felt a pair of slightly warm fingers caressing his back gently...

Thinking of those injuries on his back, he instantly withdrew all his thoughts, suppressed the expression in his eyes, and nodded to her, "You haven't slept all night, go and rest quickly, I will take care of the next thing myself."

"I couldn't sleep because I didn't find any money." Baili Changge shook her head. She was indeed very sleepy, but there was a fear in her heart.

She didn't know what she was afraid of subconsciously, she only knew that when she fell asleep, something extremely important would be lost, and that kind of loss that she had expected in advance made her very uncomfortable, so she simply chose to hold on with.

"Little medical officer, you should obediently listen to the prince and go to rest!" Shen Qianbi's voice came from behind.

Baili Changge suddenly remembered that she had washed her face just now to wash off all the color, and she didn't care about saying goodbye to Ye Hen, so she hurried towards her tent.

"Is the prince's injury better?" Shen Qianbi walked over with the imperial guards, and greeted him very politely.

"It's fine for the time being." Ye Hen responded lightly, then looked at her, "Tell me about the situation at that time and the results of your overnight investigation."
