The Return of the Demon

#1210 - The most vicious woman's heart

Ning Chen suspected Prince Qing because he was attacked on his way back from Prince Qing's mansion.

Only Prince Qing knew the time they left and deduced the route they took back to Zunwuguan.

How did the killer know all this if someone didn't tip him off?

But he always felt in his heart that it was not Prince Qing. There was no reason, it was just a feeling.

Because he was attacked at this time, the first person to be suspected would be King Qing... King Qing would not be so stupid.

But even if it wasn't Prince Qing, he was someone around her...proving that her surroundings were not clean.

However, Ning Chen had encountered many assassination attempts, so this kind of thing would not have a big impact on him.

Besides, this assassination was not without gain... At least he knew that the jade pendant on Feng Qizhen's body was most likely the Diyin Pendant.

Ning Chen and Feng Qi returned to Zunwu Hall.

Fu Lu sent someone to bring back the seriously injured sharpshooter.

Pan Yucheng and Xiao Yanxi were already asleep, and came out when they heard the noise.

"Ning Lang, why are you back at this time? I thought you were going to stay at Prince Qing's mansion tonight."

Pan Yucheng asked curiously, "Who is this?"

Ning Chen shrugged and said, "The killer...is the reason why we have to go through so much trouble until now because of him. Otherwise, Lao Feng and I would have returned long ago."

Pan Yucheng and Xiao Yanxi were shocked and asked in unison: "What's going on?"

"Let's go. It's very cold outside. Let's go inside first."

After returning to the room, Ning Chen drank two cups of herbal tea before slowly telling the story again!

Pan Yucheng and Xiao Yanxi looked unhappy.

Pan Yucheng said in a deep voice: "I think this matter has something to do with Queen Qing. She is the only one who knows the time you left."

Xiao Yanxi thought for a moment and said, “I don’t think it’s King Qing, for two reasons.

First, the empress was so wise that she could safely hand over government affairs to Prince Qing, which showed that Prince Qing was trustworthy.

Second, if something happens to Ning Lang, the first person everyone will suspect is Queen Qing, and she won’t be that stupid. "

Pan Yucheng frowned and said, "Even if it wasn't Prince Qing, then it could be someone from Prince Qing's mansion who betrayed Ning Chen's whereabouts... Fortunately, we caught him alive. Leave him to me. I will find out who is behind this before dawn."

Ning Chen waved his hand and said slowly: "Old Pan, this man is a sharpshooter with great archery skills, and he doesn't look like a vicious person, so I can't bear to kill him.

Let him have a good night's rest, and find him a doctor tomorrow morning...Don't interrogate him, I will ask him myself later."

Pan Yucheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly, "Okay!"

Ning Chen smiled and said, "Okay, it's getting late, let's all go to bed early.

The one who is troubled by this matter is not us, but King Qing."

Pan Yucheng nodded, turned around and went out, closing the door behind him.

Ning Chen originally wanted to tell Xiao Yanxi about the Di Yin Pei, but seeing that she had sleepy eyes...he decided to talk about it tomorrow.

He was also tired, so he pulled Xiao Yanxi to the bed and fell asleep in his arms.

Ning Chen fell asleep, but Prince Qing couldn't sleep.

The spacious and luxurious room was filled with flickering candlelight and curling sandalwood.

On a large bed that could accommodate three to five people, with the curtains drawn, you could vaguely see several figures close to each other, accompanied by heavy and seductive breathing sounds.

"Your Majesty, I have something important to report."

A clear female voice was heard outside the door.

The slightly shaking bed became quiet, and the lazy voice of King Qing sounded: "Come in and talk."

With a creak, the door was pushed open from the outside, and a woman with ordinary appearance but neat look walked in.

The white and tender arm lifted the curtain, revealing a large area of ​​white skin and the slightly flushed face of the Qing King, and slowly asked: "What's the matter?"

The woman knelt on one knee, folded her hands in front of her, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Regent King Daxuan was attacked on the way back to Zunwu Hall."

The pair of eyes of Prince Qing, which were originally full of spring, suddenly became extremely sharp.

"How are they?"

The woman said hurriedly: "Everyone is fine."

King Qing breathed a sigh of relief, "Tell me the whole story!"

"Yes!" The woman spoke slowly, and finally said: "When the Regent left, he told Master Fu that he was attacked on the way back to Zunwu Hall from Prince Qing's Mansion. This sentence clearly shows that he is doubting you, Your Majesty."

Prince Qing suddenly laughed, "He didn't doubt me...if he doubted me, he wouldn't have said it.

There is another meaning to his words.”

Prince Qing's expression instantly turned cold, and he spoke word by word: "He is reminding me that this palace is not clean."

The empress was startled and said hurriedly: "Your Highness means that there is a spy in the mansion."

Prince Qing was full of disdain, "Who among those who have a little power doesn't have some people who are greedy for money?"

As he spoke, he lowered the curtain and said in a deep voice, "Change my clothes."

Inside the curtain, there was a rustling sound of someone dressing.

After a while, the curtains were drawn aside, and Prince Qing, wearing a gauze dress, got out of bed... and two men could be vaguely seen on the bed.

Prince Qing took the cloak hanging beside him and put it on, then yawned delicately, "Pity my slave."

The woman kneeling on one knee said hurriedly: "I'm here!"

Prince Qing said indifferently: "Take people to arrest all those who saw Ning Chen today and interrogate them strictly, regardless of life or death, especially..."

Prince Qing paused for a moment, then looked at the bed, "You two get down here."

Two male mistresses, wearing underwear and with red lips and white teeth, hurriedly got off the bed.

One of them was the one who scared Ning Chen so much that he jumped onto the beam today.

King Qing asked, "What's your name?"

The latter looked delighted and said hastily, "My servant is Kong Ying."

"Kong Ying? What a nice name." King Qing looked at Lian Nu, "Take him away and interrogate him strictly. I have a feeling that he seems to know something."

Kong Ying, who was full of joy just now and thought he was going to be favored, was frightened on the spot and kowtowed and begged for mercy, "Your Majesty, please spare my life, Your Majesty, please spare my life, I didn't do anything..."

Prince Qing waved his hand and said, "Take him away. I must give Ning Chen an explanation before tomorrow morning.

Lian Nu, please don't let this king down."

Lian Nu leaned forward, "I understand!"

The two lovers were dragged away.

It is true that the mouth of a green snake and the sting of a wasp are not poisonous, but the heart of a woman is the most poisonous.

Just now when they were making love, he called his little darling all the time, and then he turned around and sent his little darling to Xingtai.

No one who can survive the great purge during the succession of the throne is a simple person.

......

The next day, early morning.

Ning Chen got up, washed up, ate something with Xiao Yanxi, and went out to a heavily guarded room.

The two were about to go in when the door opened... Pan Yucheng sent out an old man carrying a medicine box.
