C328

He just silently looked at those people with his eyes.

His fingers tapped on the table with a regular rhythm.

Within a quiet room.

Such a voice made it hard for those who already had a strong heart to bear the burden.

He was even more terrified.

In the end, someone couldn't hold it in.

He knelt on the ground and crawled two steps forward.

Kneeling in front of Jingjing.

"So many guards came to the palace to 'invite' the prince in for questioning!"

This "please" was naturally not the kind of invitation that was meant to be …

"What else did the Prince say before he left?"

Jingjing asked.

Why did the palace guard come to escort Yue away?

Wasn't asking her like this equivalent to taking her away?

What had Li Yue done wrong?

Weren't they all fine these few days?

He went to a gathering with the princes yesterday.

Was there a problem there?

Jing Jing suppressed the doubts in her heart.

He couldn't help but ask the gatekeeper, "When the prince left, did he say anything?"

The man shook his head. "I didn't say anything …" "Your highness was only giving us instructions to conceal the matter from her. Otherwise, she'd be worried that …"

Jingjing's eyebrows jumped.

Li Yue was really stubborn.

At a time like this, he still didn't want her to help him.

On the contrary, she was considering whether she would be worried for him.

Jing Jing sighed.

He waved his hand and retreated. "All of you can leave now."

The few of them backed away in fear.

"Miss, what should we do now?"

Man Qing took a step forward and asked Jing Jing worriedly.

Jing Jing sighed.

He shook his head, "I don't know either. I haven't thought it through."

"How about... "Why don't we find the general and think of something." Man Qing suggested.

At this time, perhaps only General Xiahou would be able to come up with a solution.

I should have let Li Yue go earlier.

Jingjing shook her head and said, "The prince's mansion is definitely guarded by soldiers. If I can go out, I might not be able to see father, moreover … Things happened so quickly that even Father might not necessarily know about it. If he were to say it out loud, he would instead worry about me and think of another way. "

Manqing's lips moved a little.

He seemed to have something to say.

Before he could finish his words.

He heard the voice of Manager Liu, who had just followed the gatekeepers and two stewards.

"Ai, ai, maester, the prince really isn't in the palace. This, this is the palace where the princess resides. You, hurry up and leave …"

Manager Liu's voice came in intermittent bursts.

Jing Jing frowned.

Another lazy voice came over: "I've said something big has happened. I want to see the prince. I have to see the king!"

Jing Jing frowned.

Man Qing was not in a good mood when she saw Jingjing.

He then said, "Miss, this servant will go and stop him and send him away."

Jing Jing shook her head, "Forget it, let him in!"

She wanted to see what was going on.

Just how much was at stake.

Manqing hesitated, but she didn't stop him.

The person who entered was a maester who was disheveled.

He pulled back his messy hair and said, "Princess, where is the prince? I want to see His Royal Highness! "

This man's name was Qi Domain.

He was one of the top students in Li Yue's sect.

It was just that people usually did not pay attention to people, which was why they had such an appearance.

Jingjing creased her brows and said, "What happened?"

However, he was unwilling to say, "I want to see His Highness. Something big has happened, I must see His Highness!"

No one knew that Jingjing's body was still burning. He swayed a few times and said, "The prince is not in the mansion. If you have anything to say, tell me!"

The group of people looked at Jingjing from top to bottom.

His eyes were naked.

But there was nothing threatening or obscene about it.

After a breathtaking flash.

She looked at Jingjing and said in a low voice, "Esteemed wangfei, something happened in the library."

"What is it?" Jingjing knitted her brows and couldn't help but to ask.

She knew the restaurant in the Qi domain.

He was Li Yue's disciple.

built up.

These people were either trying to give advice to Li Yue or giving his advice.

Or make up some books.

All in all.

These people were here to help Li Yue.

However, the people in this restaurant were all Li Yue's men.

What could happen?

Jingjing asked.

The faces of the Qi domain cultivators changed.

A man seven feet tall.

Tears were streaming down his face.

He looked at Jing Jing and said with a trembling voice, "In the library, 12 people died in one night, all of them died suddenly in one night!"

"What?!"

Jing Jing staggered.

She was already slightly weak due to the aftereffects of the Fourth Prince's medicine.

At this moment, he could no longer bear the heavy burden.

It looked like he was about to fall to the ground.

Manqing quickly supported her.

The Qi domain also asked, "Princess, are you alright?"

Jingjing slightly stabilized her mind.

He looked at the Qi domain and said, "I'm fine, continue."

The Qi domain hesitated for a moment.

Looking at Jingjing, he said, "The imperial physicians have verified that they say they died from exhaustion, they … Luckily, they were on the night shift again last night. If news of this got out … "This, this …"

His words were intermittent, and he was unable to continue any further.

Twelve of Li Yue's disciples had died in one night.

If this got out.

Who would dare to come and seek refuge with Li Yue?!

Everyone's faces changed drastically.

After the change.

Then he looked at Jingjing.

He said in a low voice, "Then... What should he do? Miss, we … "Let's go find the general."

Jingjing could tell that this was Man Qing's voice.

However … Why was Manqing's voice so far away?

Jing Jing's body shook for a while.

He then turned to look at the other cultivators.

He said to Steward Liu, "Go to the general's estate and spread the word that the general is to come to the palace and visit the prince and ask him to protect the prince Zhou Quan."

She took a deep breath.

He mustered his strength and spirit.

He looked at the Qi domain and said, "Come, let's take a look at the library."

There were priorities.

I'm afraid that Li Yue was recruited into the palace.

It was a ploy by someone else to lure the tiger out of its lair.

Right now, it was impossible for her to stay in the palace.

If something happened in the restaurant, no one would know how others would cause trouble.

Therefore, the only thing he could do now was to let General Xiahou protect him.

He would go to the restaurant to have a look.

What was going on?

"Come, let's go take a look."

Jingjing stood up, aligned her region and said, "Let's go to the library together to see what's going on!"

He didn't know if it was because the Qi Province was in a desperate situation.

It had messed up the square formation.

At this moment, he saw the serious and confident look on Jingjing's face.

He nodded and the two of them walked in.

"The Ministry of Justice has already sealed off the building. If we go through the main entrance, I'm afraid we won't be able to get in …"

The Qi domain led the way.

The restaurant was in another courtyard not far behind the prince's mansion.

He didn't need to ride a horse carriage, nor did he need to sit in a palanquin.

The two of them walked over.

As they walked, they explained, "Those people also died in a strange way. There must have been someone who tried to frame His Highness. The coroner and imperial physician had checked them and found no injuries or signs of poisoning." But, they all died suddenly. The imperial physicians and coroners all insisted on working themselves to death! "

After Jingjing calmed down.

Only then was he able to calm his mind.

If this news got out.

In the future, no one would dare to go into the restaurant and not talk about it.

Just talking about that... His reputation was about to be destroyed.

At that time, Li Yue would be charged with a great victory, which was something that even if he jumped into the Yellow River, he wouldn't be able to wash away.

Whether it was a Bachelor's or a Martial Disciple, Li Yue's secret disciple …

Even Jingjing knew about it.

Although on the surface, they were all afraid of leaving.

But in private, he was actually quite respectful towards Li Yue.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be willing to come to the mansion and become a disciple.

But now, twelve people had died in one night. It was really strange.

No one knew who it was.

With a hatred as great as that between him and Li Yue.

If you want to discredit me like that …

After calming herself down, Jingjing asked, "Who are the people who died?"

Qi Yu said, "Last night, I stayed outside the library and didn't know who died inside, but... However, I know that the Grand Scholar on duty is a good person … "Ai, if I knew earlier, I would have pulled him along to drink with me last night."

Look at him.

Jing Jing was also very upset.

Among these people.

They were most likely talented people who were born in a Humble Class.

Li Yue had built a large attached courtyard for them.

for their wives and children.

But so many people had died in one night … He really didn't know how miserable those poor families who were gradually getting better with Li Yue's help were.

The Qi domain looked at Jingjing's dazed expression.

"The princess doesn't know that ever since the prince bestowed the title of king, the students in this restaurant have become very popular. Many people want to spend money to buy them, but the prince only accepts talented people, especially those born in the Humble Class."

"Although the prince doesn't talk normally and always has an ice-cold look on his face, but …" "He never allowed us to work nights. Aside from the maester or the martial artist on duty, no one else would stay there …"

"Even if we keep people here, it's just …" "It was only because of something new or because of a dispute between us that we voluntarily chose to stay behind. Our prince will never force us to …"

Jingjing nodded.

She was proud of her husband.

This man.

It gave hope to countless people who had ideals and ambitions but no family background or qualifications.

On the other hand, she hated the culprits who had killed twelve people.

If these twelve people die, let's not even consider the consequences for now.

Just by talking about the twelve families … What a tragedy.

Jing Jing sighed.

He suppressed the pity and regret in his heart.

"Let's go to the library and take a look. I hope that we can find out the cause of death of those people. This will be of some help to the prince!"

It was already dawn.

Within the palace in the King's Pavilion.

He was the King of the Western Regions who had been woken up in the middle of the night.

It was a look of displeasure.

He just sat there frighteningly cold.

By her side stood Li Yue, who had been standing for more than two hours.

He didn't even bother to ask Li Yue to sit down.

She just stared at him with her cold, frightening eyes.

A short while later.

Someone knocked on the door and entered the room.

It was the palace.

The best shaman and imperial physician.

"How is it?"

The Western Region King coldly asked.

The imperial physician hastily bowed. "The Second Prince choked on his water too much and is still unconscious. If he doesn't wake up soon, he might …" "There will be plenty of life …"

After pondering for a moment.

The imperial physician continued to probe the expression on the Western Region King's face.

He said, "We have discussed and come to an agreement." I'm afraid it's going to be a violent drug. "

The Western Region King's face twitched.

He slammed the table. "Is there no other way?"
