The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple

The oil lamp in Xiao Mubei's room was still on. Ke Yuwen and Qingshan, who were squatting in the distance, couldn't help but wonder, "Could it be that the King of Dingbei has a habit of not turning off the lights before sleeping?"

Their plan was to wait until all the lights were out and everyone was asleep, and then quietly go over to detonate the gunpowder. Because detonation takes time, they wanted to be absolutely sure, so it would be best to wait until everyone was asleep.

But now the lights in Prince Dingbei's room were still on. Seeing that the day was about to dawn, Qingshan couldn't wait any longer and said to Ke Yuwen, "Why don't we do it now? If we don't do it when the day dawns, all our plans will be ruined."

Ke Yuwen gritted his teeth and said, "Do it."

Several yamen runners around them suddenly and quietly began to approach the yard. Ke Yuwen and Qingshan stared at those people without blinking, and felt sweat on their palms.

Seeing that several people were about to approach the courtyard, as long as they reached the outside of the courtyard and lit the fuse buried in the corner of the wall, the people inside would be doomed. Then they would put all the blame on the bandit. Ke Yuwen gave the courtyard to King Dingbei that night, but unexpectedly the bandit attacked the county government office at night, blew up County Magistrate Ke's courtyard, killed King Dingbei, while Lord Ke escaped by luck. Perfect!

Ke Yuwen was lost in thought as he saw the yamen runners were about to reach the fuse. Suddenly, a scream was heard in the yard, which frightened Ke Yuwen. The patrolling soldiers were also awakened and stood up one after another. When the scream was heard, the yamen runners reflexively hid behind the tree.

The oil lamps in the room lit up one after another, and the doors opened one after another. Many people asked what happened. The patrolling soldiers also walked quickly into the yard. At this time, the door of the room where Xiao Mubei lived suddenly opened, and Chu Yunxi shouted in panic: "The prince has fainted, quickly send the prince to the hospital."

Wu Xu called a few soldiers into the house, and soon carried Xiao Mubei and Hei Mu out, and quickly carried them to the outside of the courtyard. Seeing that the situation was not right, Ke Yuwen hurriedly came out from his hiding place and greeted them, saying, "What happened to the prince?"

Chu Yunxi said with red eyes: "This is an old problem of the prince. He has a problem of fainting. Once he works too hard, he will easily get sick. It is very dangerous. He must be sent to the clinic for emergency treatment immediately. Sir Ke, please give me some advice. Where is the nearest clinic?"

Seeing Chu Yunxi looking at him pitifully, Ke Yuwen could not help but point to the east, "Go east for one stick of incense, there is a clinic."

Qingshan bumped into him beside him, and Ke Yuwen woke up as if from a dream. Just as he was about to say something, Chu Yunxi quickly said, "Thank you, Lord Ke. I will take the prince over now. I will come to thank Lord Ke after the prince wakes up."

After saying that, Chu Yunxi commanded all the soldiers to run, quickly withdrew from the county government office, and soon disappeared without a trace.

Ke Yuwen stared blankly at the person who had already disappeared, and it took him a while to react, "They just left like that?"

Qingshan said unhappily, "If you don't keep them, they will definitely leave."

Ke Yuwen asked doubtfully, "Tell me, is the King of Dingbei really fainting or is it fake?"

"Really? Does it matter now? They are all gone. Now that we have missed this opportunity, it won't be that easy to kill them again."

Ke Yuwen remained silent. He knew Qingshan was right, but things happened so fast that he didn't have time to react before Chu Yunxi and the others had already left.

"There will definitely be a chance. If not, take them to the mine and find a chance to kill him there." A bloodthirsty light flashed in Ke Yuwen's eyes.

After running for several miles, Chu Yunxi asked everyone to stop and rest. She really couldn't run anymore. Fortunately, Zi Han used her lightness skills to carry her, otherwise she would have been left behind without a trace.

Not long after leaving the county government office, Xiao Mubei got up and walked away by himself, carrying Hei Mu on his back. At this moment, they were less than five miles away from the city gate, which would be opened at 11:00 a.m., which means it would be opened soon. Ke Yuwen did not dare to move them without the certainty of catching them all in one fell swoop, so he would definitely not set up defenses at the city gate.

Sure enough, the guards at the city gate were no different from the usual guards. The group left Qingluo Town smoothly and stopped in a forest three miles away from Qingluo Town.

Chu Yunxi said, "Your Majesty, if we leave Qingluo Town, what about the 78 lives of Jumu Village?"

Xiao Mubei was silent in deep thought, and after a while he asked, "Yunxi, do you have any ideas?"

"Your Majesty, I think if only the two of us go back, they might not take action."

"Why?"

"Your Majesty, think about it. After all, you are the King of Dingbei of Dasui. If you died in Southern Xinjiang for no reason, how could His Majesty let it go? Unless everyone around you is dead, you can only let him plot. That's why he wanted to trick us into the courtyard last night, with the purpose of catching us all in one fell swoop, so that he can do whatever he wants."

Xiao Mubei felt that what Chu Yunxi said made sense, and continued, "If only the two of us go back, he knows that many of my men are nearby, and he has no choice but to pretend to be nice to us. In this way, we may be able to find out more secrets from him."

"Yes, that's right. So, Your Highness, let's take a break and go back." Chu Yunxi was ready to go. She couldn't wait to catch Ke Yuwen's fox tail.

Zi Han stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, please let me go with you."

Hei Mu is seriously injured now, and the prince and princess cannot be alone, so Zi Han must take on the important task.

Xiao Mubei thought about it and felt that if he and Chu Yunxi did not bring any subordinates with them, Ke Yuwen might be even more suspicious of a trick, and it would be even more difficult to get anything out of him then.

"Okay, then you can follow me. The rest of you, disguise yourself and wait near the county government office."

After everything was arranged, everyone went into the city in batches. Chu Yunxi and Xiao Mubei really pretended to go to the clinic, got some medicine prescribed and brought it out, then the two of them went to the county government office again.

Ke Yuwen and Qingshan were wondering if Xiao Mubei and Chu Yunxi knew about what happened last night, so they deliberately tried to escape. Suddenly, a yamen runner came in and reported, "The two who claimed to be the King and Princess of Dingbei are here again."

Ke Yuwen stood up suddenly, "Who did you say is here again?"

Seeing his excitement, the yamen runner was also startled, took a half step back, and said tremblingly: "The two people who claimed to be the King of Dingbei and the Princess."

"Are they just the two of them?" Qingshan asked the bailiff.

The bailiff said, "There is another subordinate following him, but I haven't seen the others."

Ke Yuwen sat down slowly and murmured, "They dared to come back. It seems that we were not exposed last night. We still have a chance to turn the tables."
