Chapter 711 Hidden Murder

!

It's been a long time since such a big thing happened.

It seemed as if ice was condensed in his deep eyes. Nalan Ye's lips curled, bringing out a dangerous coldness, and he said, "I believe everyone knows the seriousness of the matter. If this matter is spread, no one can escape investigation, and so do I."

Xu Wei's face was solemn and he didn't say anything. He Changlong cried and said, "Prince, Prince... Help!"

"No one is allowed to disclose this matter. Just follow what the princess said and check it first! Then check it out! No matter who it is, if I know it, I will never give up easily. Within three days, a result must be found."

After leaving Sifang Pavilion, Nalan Ye and Luo Qingluan would not join in the fun of the Heavenly Square, so they went back to the Chu Palace directly.

But for a moment, all the Dark Night Halls in the capital had been dispatched to secretly search for all suspicious information. Restaurants, inns, teahouses, brothels, and gambling houses were the places where the focus was on investigation. For a moment, all the members of the Dark Night Halls were covered with a shadow in their hearts, and they didn't know if something big was going to happen.

The excitement in the sacred square has not been affected by this incident at this moment. Countless people and the royal relatives and officials who were watching the royal family are still immersed in the excitement. According to yesterday's victory, the gambling house took advantage of the situation and launched new betting odds. The more than 60 people who have won can still continue to bet, but the odds have changed from the initial ones.

On the three-story mahogany building, Nangong Wan'er sat upright in the main seat, smiling and noble and elegant. The candidate she was watching below was only faintly swept by her eyes, and a smiling autumn wave immediately became surging and excited. But no one could tell that her mood and expression were completely different. Not to mention that there was no expectation or joy, she was filled with strong resentment and disgust.

"Princess……"

Mei'er climbed the stairs, stepped forward quickly, and whispered to Nangong Wan'er's ear: "Huang Xiucai's odds are already ranked first, surpassing Wang Gongzi. The gambling house has set a special odds for him. If Huang Xiucai wins, one will pay two! If he loses, one will pay ten! Now... many people are already betting against Huang Xiucai, and they all buy him to win."

Yinya suddenly clenched, Nangong Wan'er frowned deeply, and her voice was full of resentment: "Damn it, this damn smelly man! Actually... I will not let you go!"

After cursing fiercely, Nangong Wan'er returned to calmness, and her eyes became cold: "Mei'er, go buy 100,000 taels, Huang Guanshu!"

Subconsciously, she was about to agree. Mei'er reacted and looked embarrassed: "Princess, the money here is already..."

She couldn't tell the pain. Since the princess fell out of favor, there has been no reward in the palace, and even the monthly routine that should have been cut off. The servants of the princess's mansion knew the reason, and everyone was talking privately, for fear that there would be no way out to follow the princess, and they would run away.

What's more, some even rolled up their bags and threw themselves into the high branches, so that the princess's mansion became increasingly withered and no longer had its former glory.

But Nangong Wan'er's habits were hard to change. Although her temperament became deeper, her food and clothing cost was never reduced. However, in just one year, the money she had saved had been almost spent. Mei'er occasionally criticized her and complained in a tactful way, but it never worked.

Now Nangong Wan'er suddenly said she wanted to bet on Huang Xiucai's 100,000 taels, and even if Mei'er was sold, she couldn't take it out!

Suddenly, Nangong Wan'er's eyes turned, her sharp sharpness showed. Mei'er was shaking all over. She was about to explain and heard her say, "Forget it, don't worry, let's talk about it tomorrow." Nangong Wan'er's voice became lighter and she laughed to herself: "Maybe until tomorrow, I can win more, hahahaha..."

Mei'er didn't know how to bet without money, and how to win more? But she didn't dare to ask too much, so she breathed a sigh of relief, served by her side carefully, watching today's rematch continue.

At the beginning of the hour and the third hour, the tools needed for the competition were already built on the platform.

The swords, spears, halberds, sticks and targets are ready. More than 60 candidates stand in the audience, waiting to call their numbers, and go on stage to show off their style.

Xiao Tianci stood in the rest area. After yesterday's successful victory, he seemed more confident. However, the momentum emitted from the inside out made the other candidates feel proud. He stood out in a unique way. He stood there with his hands behind his back, which made others feel even more hated.

I offended the princess and had the face to stand here. It would be strange if they didn’t teach this person a lesson!

Wang Xiuhan looked at Sun Feng at each other. The little holiday between the two had already been resolved before Xiao Tianci, the strong enemy. He stood up and walked to Xiao Tianci, bowed and smiled, "If you don't have any clumsiness, are you Huang Xiucai?"

According to his idea, the Hanlin Academy lecturer took the initiative to find a scholar to speak, and he was already arguing for the nobles. No matter how proud Huang Guan was, he should still give him a response and say a few humble words.

"Who are you?" Xiao Tianci turned his head and stared at Wang Xiuhan with a disdainful look, as if he was disdainful of talking. "I haven't seen this young master is about to go on stage soon? I don't have time to talk nonsense!"

Wang Xiuhan was speechless: "You..."

As soon as he turned around, Xiao Tianci realized that this person was called Huang Xiucai? Yes, he is now Huang Xiucai, and the identity of the replacement of this person is scholar, and it seems that he is called Huang Guan or something...

He immediately remembered Xiao Yuqi's words and must not reveal his identity. Xiao Tianci finally calmed down and looked at Wang Xiuhan with a smile on his face: "Oh, so you greeted me just now? Hahaha, it's easy to say, I am Huang Xiucai, but don't think about getting close to me, princess, I am determined to win, so don't argue with me!"

After saying that, he smiled proudly and his eyes swept to the stunning beautiful shadow on the high building.

Nangong Wan'er suddenly felt a chill, and almost let the guards drag him out and beat him to death. After a long time of control, Nangong Wan'er turned around and roared in a low voice: "Mei'er, send someone to tell them to find a way to kill this Huang Xiucai and kill him. Have you heard that you have heard! Go quickly!"

"Shameless, disgusting... I must die!"

After a moment, Wang Xiuhan and others had already received the notification. Looking at Xiao Tianci again, they were filled with hatred and obscure murderous intent.

When Wen Changde, the Minister of Rites, appeared and announced the start of today's rematch, the onlookers once again stirred up a cheerful excitement.

"Young Master will win! Come on, your husband!"

"What are you talking about! It's obviously Huang Xiucai's better!" Someone immediately put his palms on his lips and shouted: "Come on Huang Xiucai, I bought you ten taels of silver, come on!"

"Young Master Sun is so handsome, the princess will definitely fall in love with him..."

Someone next to him immediately said, "You have the same vision as you, hum!"

"The two young masters Zhou are not bad either. They are gentle and handsome. I don't know how they performed today. I'm looking forward to it!"

There were a lot of discussions in the audience, and the crowd was excited, which was even more lively than the festival. The big girl and little wife who didn't go out were also crowded in the crowd, looking at the candidates with excitement on their faces, setting off a new climax.

"Today is the martial arts test, the first archery! All candidates have listened to it. I will remind you carefully, and you will be careful. If something happens, you will be responsible for the consequences. If you are afraid, you can withdraw from the competition now. Once you are on stage, you must go to the end."

With Wen Changde's prompt and warning, everyone understood why there was an extra barrier on the platform today, blocking the target cut. The relationship was to prevent accidents and accidentally hurt others.

After a pause, no one stood up to say that they had withdrawn from the competition, and the re-examination finally officially began.

The order of playing has been rearranged long ago. According to the order of passing yesterday, each candidate has obtained a new certificate. There were three people in the first group of playing. The one who walked in the front was yesterday's No. 7 Wang Xiuhan, who ranked first today!

He was wearing a white strong suit, and his long hair was tied up. He was so handsome that he aroused a cheer as soon as he appeared. Wang Xiuhan and the other two smiled at Nangong Wan'er on the high building, then picked up the longbow next to him. He first drew a white feather arrow, and then stood in his own position. His movements seemed extremely familiar, and it was obvious that he was used to practicing.

The two opponents beside me, one is yesterday's No. 9 document Changyuan, and the other is No. 27 Huang Guan.

"Huang Xiucai, please give me some advice later." Wang Xiuhan looked at Xiao Tianci lightly, and the secret order that the princess sent someone to say just now appeared in his mind: Take the opportunity to deal with the scholar named Huang!

Wen Changyuan looked at the two of them without saying a word. He knew that his family background, identity, and reputation were not as good as those of his opponents. He stood obediently in his position, just separated Wang Xiuhan and Xiao Tianci from left to right.

Xiao Tianci didn't notice Wang Xiuhan's hostility, but only showed his signature arrogance. He picked up a bow, swayed, and tried to pull the bowstring. Suddenly, a beautiful full moon appeared, and Wang Xiuhan's face changed.

"Compare for archery, haha, I am practicing arrows at the age of three and riding a horse at the age of five. I can't play anymore." Xiao Tianci did not look at Wang Xiuhan, but the latter obviously knew that he was saying to himself: "If you want to win against me, you should save some effort."

"You... don't talk big." Wen Changyuan's breath became weak, and he seemed to have no momentum in refuting.

Wang Xiuhan was alert, but said relaxed: "Is that right? I didn't expect that Huang Xiucai could shoot arrows and ride horses. I don't know who it was? But don't let the strong wind flash its tongue, that would be embarrassing."

He almost forgot his current identity and Xiao Tianci blew up: "I'm just talking casually, just kidding. But it's too easy to beat you, it's a bit unfair to win!"

His face darkened, and Wang Xiuhan didn't want to say anything again: "Then let's see the truth under his command!"

Dong!

A crisp bell rang, and Xiao Tianci and others immediately looked up, and they had no time to care about others. Now he just wanted to win, win, win!!! Only by winning can he marry the princess, cure his hidden illness, and not have to ask Luo Qingluan that hateful woman! Only by restoring his might as well be a man!

At the same time, Wang Xiuhan and Wen Changyuan both tapped their bows and arrows, aiming at the target ahead to cut the target.

Swish!

A white feather arrow rushed out first, like a meteor, bringing out a white arc, stably nailing it to the center of the bull's eye!
