After entering the book, the vicious female supporting role became the heroine

Xiangyun was stunned for a moment, then began to pack her belongings. Doctor Li was a little anxious: "Just take the valuables with you! Hurry up!"

"The city gates are closed and it's curfew time. Where is Doctor Li going?" A deep and mellow voice sounded.

Xiangyun was so scared that she hid behind Doctor Li. Doctor Li was trembling all over. The man in front of him, wearing a silver mask, exuded a terrifying murderous aura!

Doctor Li said tremblingly: "Are you Blood Shadow? Please don't kill me! I am only following the orders of the Prime Minister and the Queen! I won't tell anyone!"

Xueying looked at him sharply: "Someone is offering one thousand taels of gold to buy your life!"

Doctor Li collapsed to the ground as if his spine had been pulled out. He mustered up the courage to say to Xueying: "Master, just kill me. Please don't touch Xiangyun."

Xueying looked at him coldly: "If you want to protect Xiangyun, write down what the Prime Minister and the Queen asked you to do! I will spare Xiangyun's life!"

Doctor Li got up from the ground tremblingly and started writing on the table.

Xiangyun was trembling all over and she covered her mouth not daring to cry out loud.

After Doctor Li finished writing, he handed it to Xueying. After Xueying put it away, he drew his sword. Xiangyun, who had been crying beside him, suddenly rushed over.

Seeing this, Xueying immediately took a step back, and Xiangyun just brushed past the corner of his clothes and fell to the ground.

She cried, "Please, hero, spare my master!"

Blood Shadow glanced at her coldly, and a sword flower appeared. A blood mark appeared on Doctor Li's neck, and he suddenly fell to the ground, blood spurting out...

After the blood shadow disappeared, Xiangyun stood up from the ground, moved her hands on her face, and turned back into the ugly woman she was before.

She took out a black iron wolf head token and smiled.

The Black Hawks hiding in the dark were all shocked. This was the Pavilion Master's token of the Soul-Snatching Pavilion! When did this woman get it from Blood Shadow?

Luo Lingyue looked up at the roof, raised the token in her hand, and walked out...

After listening to what Ying Yi said, Mu San stroked his beard calmly, but his heart was filled with turmoil! This woman was incredible, able to get the token from Blood Shadow without even seeing a blade!

Mu San asked Ying Yi: "Didn't you notice this blood shadow?"

Ying Yi lowered his head and said, "No! I didn't see clearly how she got it from Xueying."

Ying Er on the side also said: "I have seen Shen steal things, and she is even better than the thief! Xueying didn't notice it at all! We didn't notice it either!"

Mu San bared his teeth: "Go check! I want to know everything about this woman!"

The eagle buried its head even lower: "Mr. Mu, our people have lost us!"

Mu San: "..."

The next day, it was just dawn.

Rumor spread throughout Upper Kyoto that the Crown Prince and the Prime Minister's daughter fell into the water and suffered from soul-leaving syndrome.

During the morning court session, the Imperial Censor Sun Zhi reported: "Your Majesty, the entire Shangjing City is now rumored to have suffered from soul-leaving syndrome after the Crown Prince and the Prime Minister's legitimate daughter fell into the water. Your Majesty! This is related to the crown prince of our Dazhao Kingdom. If we allow this to continue, the people will be uneasy!"

Minister of Personnel Chen Yihan also reported: "Your Majesty! We need to get the Crown Prince out as soon as possible to quell the rumors!"

Prime Minister Li Mingfu angrily replied: "Your Majesty! These are malicious rumors spread by people with ill intentions! The prince and my daughter do not have soul separation syndrome..."

"Your Majesty! This morning a woman came to report that her husband was killed by the blood shadow of the Soul-Calling Gate!" Jingzhao Yin Langming interrupted Prime Minister Li Mingfu.

The ministers in the court were all a little shocked. As everyone knew, Blood Shadow only killed officials. Who... was he killing? It seemed that no one was missing in the court.

Seeing Emperor Wen nod to him, Lang Ming continued: "The deceased is the imperial physician Li Wentai! He was killed by a sword from Xueying at midnight last night, and his concubine Xiangyun was knocked unconscious. According to her, someone paid Xueying 1,000 taels of gold to silence her. However..."

Lang Ming looked at Li Mingfu and said, "The butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion also came to report this morning that one thousand taels of gold were lost in the mansion!"

After Lang Ming finished speaking, there was an uproar in the court.

Li Mingfu knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Your Majesty! I have never hired someone to kill someone! Li Wentai is a member of the Li family, and I have no reason to kill him! I would never do anything against the law. Please, Your Majesty, investigate and clear my name!"

Emperor Wen glanced at him calmly and said, "My dear Li, please get up quickly. The case will be investigated by the Dali Temple. You have three days to clear the Prime Minister's name!"

Li Mingfu kowtowed to thank Emperor Wen, but in his heart he greeted Emperor Wen and Lang Ming's ancestors for eighteen generations!

At this critical moment, he must have nothing better to do than to kill Li Wentai! Li Mingfu felt the strange looks from the ministers! But he was powerless to defend himself!

Imperial Censor Sun Zhi spoke again: "Your Majesty! I think we should let the Crown Prince come forward to clarify the matter! To calm the people!"

"Imperial Censor Sun! Ten days ago, you came to the East Palace in person to advise me to sympathize with the sufferings of the people! At that time, I toasted Imperial Censor Sun with tea instead of wine. There were only you and me in the room at that time. Am I right?" Crown Prince Chu Chengli walked quickly towards Imperial Censor Sun and said it directly.

After he finished speaking, he bowed to Emperor Wen and said, "Father! I don't have soul separation syndrome! It's just that someone coveted the throne of the East Palace and maliciously fabricated it!"

Censor Sun replied, "Your Majesty! Ten days ago, I did go to the East Palace to advise the Crown Prince. We were the only ones there at the time."

The prince turned to the Minister of War An Qingxuan and said, "Sir An, on the sixth day of February, I borrowed a military book from you at the Ministry of War. You told me about General Luo's use of the Bagua formation in the battle with Beiliu at the border of Beiyuan. Sir An, it was only you and me at that time, and no one else heard it!"

An Qingxuan cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty! It is true!"

The Crown Prince looked at the Second Prince again: "Second brother! Half a year ago, I gave you a unique copy of a military book..."

"Master Zhang, two years ago I discussed with you the sentencing for accidental injury in the criminal law!"

"Master Wen, in the midsummer three years ago, I and you solved the Zhenlong chess game together. You once said that we should live towards death. How wonderful!"

……

Emperor Wen raised his hand and said with a smile: "The prince does not have soul-leaving syndrome! Lang Ming, go and quell the rumors! The prince will go to the west of the city to distribute porridge in person tomorrow. Oh! Remember to bring the prime minister's daughter with you!"

The prince bowed respectfully: "Thank you, father!"

After the court session ended, Emperor Wen summoned the secret guards and asked, "Have you found out? Who hired the killer to kill?"

The secret guard hesitated: "Your Majesty! It's the Third and Fourth Princes' men. Their followers are going to the City God Temple on the outskirts of the city one after another."

Emperor Wen raised his eyebrows and sneered: "My sons have grown up. They like to fight. As long as they don't cause a big mess, let them do it!"

The secret guards retreated, and Emperor Wen said to Eunuch Gao who was standing beside him: "They looked like docile puppies before, but I didn't expect them to be wolves!"

Eunuch Gao consoled him: "The Second Prince is still filial to His Majesty! The Fifth Prince is also an obedient one!"

Emperor Wen narrowed his eyes and said, "The second son is very good, but he is too straightforward! As for the fifth son, Concubine Hui taught him to be as weak as a girl! Alas! I don't know who will inherit this great country in the future!"

Eunuch Gao handed over the tea respectfully: "Your Majesty is in his prime, and the prince is also growing up. Your Majesty does not need to worry!"

Emperor Wen sneered: "He wishes I would abdicate right now!"

Emperor Wen lowered his head to look at the memorial. After a long while, he instructed Eunuch Gao: "The third and fourth brothers have helped me a lot this time! Go and tell Lu Zhi to investigate the case of the prime minister hiring a murderer. Gu Zhong should go and enjoy his old age!"
