Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle

Xiao Lan immediately handed the bow and arrow to her.

Jiang Ningwan drew her bow and aimed at Zhu Bufan.

"Prince, come back!" Jiang Ningwan shouted.

The next moment, a cold arrow shot out.

Qin Shuangchi's eyebrows jumped, and he jumped up to avoid it with his Qing Kung Fu.

Zhu Bufan was shocked and barely dodged the arrow. He said unhappily, "You guys are playing dirty tricks!"

Zhu Bufan looked dissatisfied and wanted to attack again, but Qin Shuangchi retreated immediately after hearing Jiang Ningwan's shout.

When Zhu Bufan was about to chase after him, the sounds of machinery rang out simultaneously in the woods on both sides. Zhu Bufan was obviously startled and looked back.

Before he could react, a sharp weapon in the woods tore through the sky and dozens of sharp arrows shot towards him.

The mechanism was so fast that it was hard to keep up.

Before Jiang Ningwan put down the bow in her hand, she saw sharp arrows shooting towards Zhu Bufan from all directions.

It pierced his body instantly.

Thousands of arrows pierce the heart.

The earth-shaking movement was heart-wrenching.

Jiang Ningwan's breath caught in his throat. He dropped his bow and arrow and ran towards Qin Shuangchi, "Your Highness!"

Qin Shuangchi evacuated in time and quickly turned back to protect her behind him.

Everyone entered combat mode and became alert.

Zhu Bufan had been hit by several arrows and fell to his knees, spitting blood, staining the ground red, but the agencies on both sides continued to fire arrows.

The shallow river was gurgling with a hint of blood, and the riverbank was full of sharp arrows, shining with a cold light.

It lasted for a very long time before the mechanism finally stopped.

Silence fell all around.

"That was close! If the prince had been a step slower, he would have been pierced by thousands of arrows!" Xiao Lan was still in shock.

"This mechanism is really powerful!"

Jiang Ningwan frowned. "What's strange is that he was also shocked when he was shot. This mechanism must have been set by him, but it doesn't seem like he triggered it."

"Go and see!"

Qin Shuangchi quickly followed and ordered Xiao Lan, "Martial law! Search the nearby woods and be careful."

"Yes!"

Jiang Ningwan and others came to Zhu Bufan's body, checked the area nearby, and found a mechanism about ten steps behind it.

"This must be the trigger. Zhu Bufan must be trying to lure you here to kill you."

Qin Shuangchi frowned, "He set up such a big trap just to kill me. Is he going to die with me?"

Jiang Zhouye sighed, "If you are too obsessed, you will end up hurting yourself by hurting others!"

"By the way, didn't he say he had a clue?"

As he spoke, Jiang Zhouye squatted down, searched Zhu Bufan's body, and found a note in his arms.

"Shelter from the Rain."

"Is this the clue?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Lan came running over, holding up a bloody piece of clothing. "There's a large mechanism in the woods, and there are pieces of clothing left on it."

"There were signs of a struggle and blood on the ground. I suspect several people were killed, but the bodies were dragged away."

Hearing this, Qin Shuangchi frowned slightly, "It seems that Ning Wan's guess was right. The mechanism was not triggered by him."

"Leave some people to continue the search, and the rest of you set off for the Rain Shelter Villa!"

Everyone immediately set out for the rain-sheltered villa.

The villa is not far from here, and it only takes half an incense stick of time to reach the foot of the villa.

But the scene at the villa at this moment made everyone feel anxious.

Smoke billows.

Fire shot into the sky.

Qin Shuangchi immediately led his men up the mountain, and Jiang Ningwan walked a little slower behind.

But a trace of stone carving was found on the side of the stone steps.

Draw two crosses.

I don't know what it means.

She checked carefully nearby and found a torn purse in the bushes. There was a firework-like logo embroidered on the purse, and there were a few taels of silver in it.

The purse cloth felt like the brocade commonly used by the nobility.

Is it Xie Chenyuan’s?

Putting away her purse, she continued walking up the mountain.

When she arrived outside the shelter, the scene before her made her face change.

There was a corpse lying on the ground, burned beyond recognition. However, the body shape and clothing showed that it belonged to Xie Chenyuan...

"Only this one body was found in the villa!" Xiao Lan said in a heavy tone.

Everyone fell silent when they saw this scene.

The second prince of Dayan is dead.

Qin Shuangchi squatted down and touched a jade pendant from the corpse's clothes. When he took it out, he saw that it was Xie Chenyuan's jade pendant.

Jiang Ningwan's head was buzzing, and she couldn't believe that Xie Chenyuan died like this.

He was still painting their portraits a few days ago.

how come……

"Logically speaking, Tianji Pavilion is seeking revenge on the prince, so there is no reason for it to kill the second prince of Dayan!" Jiang Zhouye said solemnly.

Qin Shuangchi frowned and spoke slowly, "I've come into contact with the Tianji Pavilion. They are a righteous sect in the martial arts world. They really won't kill innocent people."

"Especially since he is the Second Prince of Dayan, if Xie Chenyuan dies, it will definitely provoke a war between Dayan and Dayan, which will not benefit the survival of the people. They will not do such a thing!"

"I'm afraid it's related to the third party force that appeared in the woods."

Jiang Ningwan's heart sank, "Tianji Pavilion has been used."

"I'm afraid it's coming for the prince."

Then a team was left behind to search for clues, and the rest took the body back to Beijing to report.

On the way back, everyone was in a heavy mood.

What we may face next is a new war between the two countries.

How to explain the death of Prince Dayan in Daning?

……

The body of the second prince of Dayan was brought back to Kyoto.

Shocked the government and the public!

Officials from various departments came to court urgently, and the atmosphere was serious.

The emperor's face was gloomy and filled with anger. "Who is so arrogant as to dare to rob and kill the Great Yan prince in the Great Ning Kingdom? Can the King of Chu catch the murderer this time?"

Qin Shuangchi reported: "The murderer is dead. I suspect there is something else going on. I am still investigating."

At this time, Lu Lingsong spoke quietly, "I originally thought that the King of Chu would be able to rescue the Second Prince of Dayan. I didn't expect that I overestimated the King of Chu. After all, the King of Chu has been injured for so long, and I'm afraid his leg will hardly recover to its former state."

"We can't embarrass the King of Chu either."

"But now that the Second Prince of Great Yan has died, the news cannot be concealed. I am afraid that the alliance with Great Yan will be broken, and the Northland is in danger!"

"Daning's weapons and iron ore all come from the North. If something happens in the North, the loss to Daning will be immeasurable."

Jiang Zhouye said angrily: "The Northland has been recovered. It is our territory now. How can it be so easy for Dayan to take it away?"

"If Dayan had this much strength, he would have taken action long ago! How could he have let this piece of fat go uneaten for so many years?"

Lu Lingsong snorted coldly and said, "Then was the then, and now is now."

"Back then, the King of Chu was able to recapture the North. Now... whether he can even hold on to the North is a question, right?"

Lu Lingsong's sarcasm was a bit harsh.

Jiang Ningwan couldn't help but speak: "General Lu, what you mean is that the King of Chu can't defend the north, but you can?"

"Then why don't you join in rescuing the Second Prince of Dayan?"

Lu Lingsong smiled coldly, flicked his sleeves, stepped forward and knelt down.

"I request your permission to rush to the north and prepare for war!"
