"Why is the prince here?" She quickly suppressed the excitement in her heart and asked with a faint smile.
Dongfangze walked over slowly, nodded and said, "I'm going to look for you after I finish my work. They said you haven't gone back yet, so I came here to see if you were there."
Su Li smiled slightly and said nothing. She knew that if she wasn't completely sure, I'm afraid he wouldn't come here to find her.
. I don't know what he thought about what she did at the husband-choosing banquet.
"I used to think that Su Su, you were very courageous, but after the husband selection banquet, I discovered that you are not only very courageous, but also extremely daring!" As if it was a joke, he walked up to her and stopped to look at her. The handsome face is full of admiration, the voice is mellow, and there is no emotion.
Su Li lowered her eyes slightly, only to hear him say again: "Dare to drug the prince and the envoy in front of the emperor, use the most ridiculous facts to prove the injustice of the deceased, and yet in the end he escaped unscathed and was promoted to a first-class female official! He paused and said with a smile: "I'm afraid only Su Su can do it in this world!"
Su Li replied: "Your Majesty is ridiculous! This is all due to the generosity of Your Majesty and the two envoys, as well as His Majesty's kindness and generosity! Otherwise, Su Li will not be able to escape his crime even if he is killed!"
This is the truth. In order to overturn the case, she did not hesitate to take risks and use the four of them, and she had made many considerations beforehand. Hopefully he won't take it to heart.
Raising her head slightly, his eyes were deep and bright, and the unabashed admiration showed in his eyes, making her slightly startled.
Dongfang Ze said: "The undead are asking for dreams. I never thought that such a thing would happen in this world!" He smiled and seemed to not believe it.
Su Li's eyes flashed slightly and she said calmly: "If I hadn't experienced it myself, I wouldn't believe it."
She sighed slightly, and there was an unconcealable fatigue between her delicate brows. Dongfang Ze couldn't help but feel weak, frowned slightly, and said with concern: "It's very hard to investigate the case. No matter what, you can't work too hard. You should pay more attention to your health."
It was not autumn yet and the sun was still hot. As he spoke, he took her hand and walked to the shade of the shore.
His handsome face became gentle, his hands were strong, and his movements were very natural. She didn't struggle, and seemed to be getting more and more accustomed to his closeness.
The two of them stood side by side under the willow tree, facing the sparkling river. Dongfangze asked: "What clues can be found from the Regent's Palace today?"
Su Li shook his head gently, with a hint of worry in his eyes, and said calmly: "I didn't find any useful clues. It's been so long, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find out for a while."
"It is indeed difficult." Dongfangze nodded, and then added casually: "Since Princess Mingyu entrusted you with a dream and asked you to help her find the real murderer, did she tell you what happened when she was killed? "
The theory of ghosts and gods is the most mythical. Of course he didn't believe what she said in the palace.
. But apart from this seemingly reasonable reason, Su Li showed a strong sense of responsibility for the Li Su case, which was absolutely extraordinary, which had always puzzled him. The woman in front of him was like a mystery. With his careful mind and deep understanding of people's hearts, it was difficult to see through her for a while.
Su Li's face was suddenly filled with sadness and she said nothing.
Dongfangze stared at her closely and continued: "I fought against her the night I was attacked. Her martial arts is not top-notch, but she shouldn't be injured in such a... embarrassing situation." He carefully said Looking at the subtle changes in expression on her face, her voice was firm and full of determination to find the truth. At the same time, there is a voice in my heart saying, what I want to know most is, who are you
Su Li took a deep breath, slowly met his questioning gaze, and smiled sadly, "It's not that she doesn't want to resist, it's that she doesn't have the ability to resist. The person who framed her not only tarnished her reputation, but also designed to cause the poison in her body to be released in advance. attack."
Dongfangze's eyes flashed, as if he had some realization, but he asked in a deep voice: "What kind of poison was she poisoned?"
"Princess Mingyu has been poisoned by a strange poison since she was a child. The princess has worked hard to find strange medicines all over the world to cure her illness. The toxins in your body were planted by her when she was detoxifying. But her poison is worse than yours It's much more serious. When an attack occurs, your limbs become sore and limp, and you no longer have the slightest ability to resist."
"That's why she was raped by the Second Emperor Brother..." Dongfang Ze's heart suddenly sank. That day at Li Su's mourning hall, he saw bruises and bruises on the woman's body. She had obviously been treated roughly. Rong Xijin died of grief and anger, presumably because she was violated by Dongfang Zhuo! Such a proud and self-respecting woman, Lancangjiang had a slight intimate contact with her one night, and he had already seen her strong temperament. For a moment, he didn't dare to think deeply about how Li Su could withstand the insult of the furious Dongfang Zhuo without any resistance! He clenched his hands involuntarily.
"Yes." Su Li replied quickly, her emotions suddenly uncontrollable, and she shouted excitedly, "If it weren't for this, she wouldn't be afraid to face the mother-in-law who cares about her the most. Although she has been insulted, she has never been afraid of it. She has never thought about seeking death! Her daughter’s family values her innocence the most. She has not found the person who framed her for such a big crime. How can she die so easily?! She just wants to find a place where no one is and stay quietly for a while. Yes. Think clearly about the causes and consequences of these things. However, the person who wanted to harm her was very thoughtful and knew her character accurately. From the time she became a drug addict to leaving the house, the time was just right! He even hired a killer to follow her there secretly. here."
Everything that happened that day seemed to be vivid in my mind, and the heart-piercing shame came to my face in an instant. The storm was surging in front of my eyes, and I felt murderous!
Su Li's footsteps moved forward slowly, and pain appeared in her eyes, "The killer was dressed in black, with a mask on his face. Without saying a word, he stabbed him with a sword.
! Li Su was very alert and dodged the sword! "Her eyes were blazing, as if she was witnessing the life-and-death fight with her own eyes.
Dongfangze couldn't help being stunned and narrowed his eyes.
Su Li's eyes wandered, and she said coldly: "Li Su knew that she was not strong enough, so she tried to avoid conflicts with the other party, but she soon discovered that this person did not want to steal money, but wanted to kill her!"
Su Li stepped to the left and spoke faster: "The killer's martial arts skills are very high, and his moves are fierce and direct to the vital point. It was already difficult for Li Su to dodge the sword, and he was soon defeated."
Dongfang Ze couldn't help but took a step forward and seemed to see a weak woman and a black-clothed killer fighting fiercely.
Su Li moved forward, seemingly following the two fighting people towards the riverside, and spoke faster and faster: "Li Su risked his life to activate the true energy in his body, and made it out of the golden hairpin given to her by his mother-in-law. Fighting to the death with the killer for the weapon! She tried her best to hold on for a long time, but could not knock the opponent down, until her internal strength was almost exhausted, and she could no longer hold on, and finally was stabbed in the heart by the opponent's sword... "
Dongfang Ze was stunned and suddenly felt a slight sting in his chest.
Su Li stopped, her eyes suddenly changed, and her slightly trembling hands couldn't help but cover the once fatal wound. She raised her head suddenly, looked at the place where the fierce battle had been fought, and said softly: "Even so, she did not give up the opportunity to attack in the end, she tried her best to rush forward!"
Dongfang Ze's body suddenly froze. Before Su Li finished speaking, he had already understood that Li Su...she, she actually chose such a tragic way to end her life!
"The sword penetrated her body all at once... The blood flowed out, redder than her wedding dress. She used her last bit of strength to send the golden hairpin in her hand fiercely into the killer's abdomen! "Su Li pulled out the hairpin and stabbed it hard. He said anxiously: "The killer never thought that she would rather die than surrender. In anger, he smashed her shoulder bone with a palm!"
She stopped and looked at the turbulent river, her face filled with grief and anger, as if all her strength had been suddenly drained away. He said numbly: "Li Su was thrown into the Lancang River and never came up again."
The picturesque scenery on the river bank seemed to have completely disappeared. These tragic and decisive scenes involuntarily passed before Dongfang Ze's eyes, and his heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.
Su Li raised her head and slowly closed her eyes, with a faint heat in her eyes.
. The surging river could not wash away her injustice and shame. What was dyed red was her young life, Li Su's youthful bloom!
Su Li tried her best to suppress her emotions and said softly: "To die together is the most dignified way to die that she can finally choose for herself!"
Dongfangze stared at Su Li and couldn't say a word for a long time. The cruel fact made him feel heavy and breathless. No matter how hard she tried to overturn Li Su's case, what was her purpose? At this moment, the emotion Su Li showed was absolutely real, as if even breathing was filled with heartbreaking pain. If you are not someone who feels the same way, you would never have such an experience! At this moment, he almost overturned his own inference and believed the fact that Li Su entrusted her with a dream.
Su Li's eyes were filled with sadness, her eyes were filled with sadness, and her fingers were trembling uncontrollably, obviously trying to control her emotions.
She rarely showed such a fragile and helpless look. Dongfang Ze's heart suddenly ached inexplicably, and an unprecedented feeling of pity suddenly surged into his heart. At this moment, he wanted to hold her in his arms, protect her, and never let her be harmed again. forever? He suddenly realized that when did he have such thoughts about her? His heart sank, and he suddenly felt a little uneasy.
"Do you know how difficult it is for a person with a strong desire to survive to be forced to make such a decision in a desperate situation? She persisted for so long, but she could not wait for someone to come. Because God, She was given no other choice."
Su Li's clear black and white eyes turned to look at him directly and said: "I know that what the prince said to me has doubts in his heart. In the past, I would not have believed such ridiculous things. Mingyu County After the death of the Lord, he entrusted me with dreams every night, and all the tragic scenes appeared in my dreams realistically, day after day... "
Su Li took a breath and said again: "The princess really has no right to complain and has no place to appeal, so she came to ask me for help. If I don't uphold justice for her, where is the justice of heaven?"
She knew very well the doubts in Dongfangze's heart. How could someone like him easily believe in the theory of ghosts and gods. Because the most unexplainable thing has happened to me. Regardless of whether he believes it or not, all these are irrefutable facts and will not allow him to find any doubts.
Dongfang Ze took a deep breath, regained his senses instantly, and said coldly: "There are indeed many doubts about Princess Mingyu's case, and it should be investigated thoroughly!"
Su Li's eyes lit up, "The prince has been concerned about the princess before, but have you found any clues?"
Dongfang Ze pondered: "As far as I know, Princess Mingyu had her last words carved on the bank of the river that day.
! "
Su Li was shocked: "Last words?"
Dongfangze nodded and said: "Yes. Someone found Princess Mingyu's last words carved with a gold hairpin on the riverside, saying that she was unworthy of her parents, lost her virginity and betrayed the king, and had no face to live in the world anymore. After receiving the report, the governor of Kyoto When the people rushed to the river, it was raining heavily, but the words engraved on the golden hairpin were still clear. When the regent rushed to the river, he recognized the golden hairpin as belonging to Princess Mingyu at a glance!"
Su Li felt a pain in her heart and resisted speaking.
Dongfangze added: "Because of the heavy rain, the salvage was not smooth. It was not until three days later that the princess's body was found in a shoal downstream. Because the body was somewhat deformed, the regent couldn't bear to take a closer look, so he was buried. "
Su Li felt suffocated in her chest. I was thinking before, didn't anyone suspect that she was murdered? When she fell into the river, the sword was still on her body! Even if the sword is gone, the wound is still there! It wasn't until the husband selection banquet that I realized that my father had pressed the button deliberately.
Dongfangze's eyes flashed, and he continued: "Princess Mingyu lost her virginity and became pregnant, and it was already known throughout the city. In addition, there was a golden hairpin as proof of her last words, so not many people suspected that she died unjustly. The governor of Kyoto was hampered by this. With the power of the regent, how dare you casually conduct an autopsy? But according to the situation you described today, it should be that the killer faked her suicide in order to cover up the fact that she was hired to kill someone."
The power of the regent! Unexpectedly, this prominent figure has now become her unjust assistant! Su Li took a deep breath and said coldly: "The real purpose of the murderer behind the scenes is to make her bear the contempt of the world and never be able to stand up again! The other party calculated everything accurately and eventually wiped out all evidence of murder. Such vicious and detailed His thoughts are definitely not those of ordinary people.”
"Although time has passed by for a long time, in this world, as long as you do something, it will definitely leave traces!" Dongfang Ze's eyes flashed with anger, and he pondered for a moment. He took out a piece of white silk from his arms and added: "The method of slandering Princess Mingyu as unfaithful was just the antecedent. The most fatal harm to her was the assassin of this assassination."
Su Li took a look and saw that it was exactly the piece where Dongfang Ze met her on the top of the mountain that night at the Summer Resort. At that time, she couldn't understand the graphics on the white silk, but she was secretly wondering where he got it from. An accident happened and he didn't discuss the matter of being trapped in the valley in detail. After that, he took the white silk back.
Her eyes moved slightly and she said softly: "I remember you once said that this belongs to the Shenmen killer lurking around you."
Dongfangze nodded and said: "At that time we only suspected that he was one of the four killers of Shenmen.
. Now it seems that he is the real murderer of the princess. "
His inference coincided with hers, and Su Li's heart sank, "Why did the prince say this?"
Dongfang Ze thought deeply: "You said that the princess finally stabbed the gold hairpin into his abdomen with all her strength, which is the best evidence. The battle with Shen Men that day was precisely because I saw through his identity and learned about Shen Men from his mouth. Otherwise, the place would be very secretive and it would be difficult for me to get in. I inspected his body after his death, and I remember clearly that he did have such a special wound on his abdomen."
Su Li's eyes darkened, and he quickly pointed out the location of the wound on Dongfang Ze, "But here?"
For a moment, Dongfangze nodded slowly.
Su Li's heart was beating wildly, but she asked: "Just based on this, could it be a coincidence?"
Dongfangze shook his head and said: "Any wound with a weapon will have its own specific mark. The wound on his abdomen has a special shape and is definitely not a scar from a weapon." He seemed to think of something again and asked quickly: "Is the princess still stabbed?" Injured his right arm?”
Su Li did not deny it.
Dongfangze sneered and said: "That's right, one part may be a coincidence, but when several doubtful points are put together, it is no longer a coincidence." He stretched out his hands and opened the white silk. There were three rows of strange symbols on it. , has always been an unsolved mystery.
Su Li's heart moved and she asked softly: "Does the prince know what this mark means?"
Dongfang Ze shook his head and sighed: "This figure is very strange. I checked many atlases and found no records. I still don't know it clearly. I just think it is most likely the recorded code name of every action of the Shenmen Killer. .”
Su Li's heart skipped a beat. As the leader of the Shen Sect, she still didn't know the true meaning of this symbol. Dongfang Ze was just an outsider, but he had already grasped the same information as himself. He was really sharp and intelligent. If he hadn't been careful, even the key clue of the left-hand sword Wei Shu would have been difficult to confirm. Now that his identity has been determined, Wan Xin is most likely to understand the graphics on the white silk!
Su Liteng stood up and said frankly: "Your Majesty, all other clues have been cut off at the moment. Only the killer's evidence may be able to find out. Can I take this silk away and examine it carefully?"
Dongfangze smiled and said, "Of course." After saying that, he handed the silk to Su Li.
She eagerly wanted to know the answer, carefully put the white silk into her sleeves, and said quickly: "It's getting late, Su Li will go back first."
. "
Dongfang Ze saw it in his eyes and didn't ask any more questions. He whispered softly: "Well, be careful. If you need help with anything, just come to me."
Su Li's heart felt warm, but when she saw his eyes as soft and warm as water, looking at her intently, as if he had infinite affection, he quickly looked away, and the two of them said goodbye. She hurriedly got on the sedan and headed back home immediately.
On the tree-lined path back to the city, it is quiet and peaceful, and the summer breeze is refreshing. Suddenly, there was a fierce fighting sound ahead. The entourage immediately became alert and hurriedly stopped the sedan. He asked in a low voice: "Sir, there is a situation ahead. Do you want to avoid it?"
Su Li lifted the curtain and looked out, only to see two men in black not far away besieging a woman in white. The woman was wearing a veil and her appearance could not be seen clearly. She suddenly had doubts in her heart. The laws of the Sheng Kingdom were strict. Why would someone be so bold and rob someone in the street in broad daylight
The two men in black attacked fiercely, and the woman in white, one against two, struggled to resist, gradually losing strength, and gradually moved towards the sedan. For fear of accidentally injuring Su Li in the sedan chair, the entourage drew out their weapons and stood ready.
The woman in white was finally defeated, and was slapped in the center by the opponent's palm. She fell straight in front of the Su sedan, and the veil immediately fell down, revealing her true appearance.
Su Li was shocked, her eyes widened, and she couldn't believe what she saw in front of her. Those eyebrows, that light and elegant temperament were all too familiar, and she almost blurted out an exclamation. She couldn't help but get up and rush out of the sedan, quickly helping her up.
"Sir, be careful!" the attendant exclaimed!
Su Li didn't realize it and stared closely at the woman in his arms. She saw that her eyes were closed tightly, her face was pale, and she had fainted. She felt panicked and lowered her head to take out the medicine bottle from her arms, but she didn't see the woman suddenly open her eyes again and smile strangely.
She opened her mouth, and a stream of light smoke, as if transparent, sprayed directly on Su Li's face. Su Li was shocked. The moment she opened her mouth, she smelled a faint aroma. Su Li held her breath for a moment, her expression suddenly froze, her eyes slowly closed, and she fell down.
In the blue sky, a clear and long call of a bird suddenly sounded. Not long after, its companion responded and circled in the air.
"Sir!" The exclamation echoed throughout the night. Su Li felt her body light up, as if she was being picked up by someone. In an instant, the noisy fighting sound was far behind her.
There was a "clang" sound and the door opened.
.
Su Li was dragged into a quiet dark room, and the door was closed again. She stayed there for a while, but couldn't hear any sound. Then she opened her eyes carefully and looked around. The dark room was made of fine steel from the roof, walls to the floor. An air hole was opened above the side wall, and various torture instruments were placed on the torture rack on the right. It was obviously a strict torture room.
Who is it, who is willing to risk beheading to kidnap the current princess, a first-class female official? She narrowed her eyes slightly. The sudden change just now was so sudden. She only made the decision when she smelled the fragrance. She wanted to let them catch her. She wanted to see clearly what the purpose of this envoy was. Pretend to be Rong Xijin to lure her into the trap!
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the door. Su Li quickly closed her eyes, only to hear a clanging sound. Someone opened the door and poked his head in to take a look and said, "She hasn't gotten over the medicine yet."
Another voice immediately said: "Find a way to wake her up!"
After a while, a basin of cold water was poured on her face. Su Li couldn't help but frown slightly. Someone patted her face repeatedly and shouted: "Wake up, wake up!" The man's hand was very strong, and his cheek was patted. Feeling the pain, I finally slowly opened my eyes.
There were two more figures in the dark room, both dressed in black attire. They should be the ones who kidnapped her just now.
Before Su Li could speak, she heard someone shouting from outside the door: "Master!"
As soon as the door opened, a man in black clothes and a mask walked in. When the two people in the room saw the visitor, they also called out to the master and quickly stood up and stepped aside. The man in black clothes and mask looked down and saw that he was lying on the ground. The lying Su Li's hands and feet were bound, her eyes were closed tightly, and she fell into a pool of water. Half of her body was already wet, and there were a few reddish handprints on her fair cheeks.
A flash of anger flashed in his eyes, and he slapped the man next to him with a slap, causing his head to turn to the side. The people inside and outside the door immediately fell to their knees, not even daring to do anything. Come out.
He heard a person behind him shout hurriedly: "Get out of here, go down and receive your punishment!"
