His sense of smell and hearing had been much sharper in the palace than it was in the martial arts world. All these years of high vigilance had caused him to sleep lightly for a long time, and every night he would dream of being hunted and fighting. One year, when he returned home with his parents, he was surprised to find that he was no longer able to be like a man when his colleague dragged him out to visit a brothel! The woman took his head in her arms and held it against her soft breasts. It smelled like milk, just like when he was a child and his mother comforted him. That night, he slept soundly with the prostitute in his arms. He had never felt at ease before, and he had dreamt of nothing. He had a new understanding of this place that was once filled with filth. However, the next day, that woman swore and said that she would never see him again. That was because he kicked her out of the bed in the middle of the night, nearly breaking her leg. It turned out that no matter what, even if he no longer dreamed, he would still forever remember that day from the bottom of his heart. Gradually, the number of holidays the emperor allowed him to return home increased. He knew that his majesty was already tired of seeing his calm, fish like eyes and body that would forever be lifeless. This was what he was happy about. Today, His Majesty even allowed him a month's leave, and every time he saw his mother, it would be different. It was time for him to resign, he thought to himself. No matter how much his eldest senior brother needed him, it was time for him to resign. This time, after he had saved his mother, he would return to the palace and tell the king that he would stay with his mother.

Thus, when the sound outside was still very faint, he already felt it, and quietly held the sword in his hand. A syringe in his left hand was already secretly holding onto the emperor. If anyone outside dared to approach him, this sword that was filled with human blood would cut open the quilt and stab into his throat. Similarly, no matter which direction the opponent attacked from, the syringe in his left hand would tell him that he had shot a hedgehog.

What was the other party waiting for? Or did he already know that he had discovered it? He was not in a hurry. The biggest training he had in the Imperial Palace was to wait, to wait for a future he did not know where. He suddenly smelled an aroma, so pleasant and intoxicating. Just like that year when he hid in front of the woman's chest and smelled the faintly discernible fragrance. His brows furrowed as he thought, "Not good!" However, in the next moment, those beautiful or cruel memories could no longer be reflected in his mind, and his body gradually became unruly. Gradually, it turned stiff, and gradually, it felt like it had sunk to the bottom of a deep pool.

Where is the ending date?

However, just like what his senior had said, there were some things that could not be changed.

Eldest senior brother, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you anymore.

This was his last thought before he lost consciousness.

A general of the Thousand Ox Guards was killed when he returned home. What a huge case this was! It was said that it was the devil who killed him. There was no injury on the general's body but his heart was pierced. However it was not a blade or a sword but a human hand! The five bloody holes in the general's chest were shocking, and the heart inside had already been crushed. The general's mother fainted that morning at the sight of her son's body. It was the neighbors who had heard the commotion and had come to investigate, only to find the case and help report it.

Qin Xiao knew that her vacation had come to an end. The emperor was really playing with life. He was playing, recuperating, scheming, and advancing in the third string. When Qin Xiaoliu arrived, she was glad that the scene hadn't been moved. The person who had once shook the world, exterminating Imperial Consort Hui and the Emperor's personal bodyguards, was actually no different from a normal person. He only had two hands and two feet. Lying on the bed, the coroner looked at Qin Xiao Lu and said, "Vice Minister, the general's body is covered in spots. His body is stiff, his eyes are cloudy, and his lips are slightly pursed. It has been about six hours since he was killed."

Qin Xiaoliu didn't care about the time of the murder, but she cooperated with him and said, "If that's the case, it was indeed the night that he was killed." After saying that, she looked around the corpse. Her left hand was still holding onto the syringe that she did not have the chance to use, and the sword in her right hand could not be pulled out no matter how hard she tried.

"My lord, there are no traces of struggle, could it be —"

"No, he's waiting to attack. It's just that he didn't have the time to fight back." Qin Xiao was about to curse in anger. Who let in the unrelated people? He followed the voice and saw Ming Xiao Yuan. He was glad that he didn't say 'damn' just now.

"Greetings, teacher." Qin Xiaoliu gave a respectful bow.

Mingxiao ignored her and said, "Sir Qin, there's no need to be courteous. I am only recommended to you by others, there is no need to take it seriously. "

"I dare not forget the favor I owe him." Seeing that he wasn't responding, the little bastard Qin Xiao still didn't get up. Ming Xiao Yuan came back to her and helped her up. "Everyone says that Sir Qin's case is like a god. I wonder what he has discovered this time?"

"Just as my respected teacher said, General Ling was fully prepared. He just didn't have the time to take action."

Ming Xiao Yuan no longer looked at the person on the bed. Qin Xiao could only read a little lament on his face. He said, "Even if I were to enter, I wouldn't be able to move so fast, making him —"

"Not necessarily." Qin Xiaob sneered: "I heard that General Ling was recommended to His Majesty by his teacher. His teacher has always liked to recommend talents for the country."

Ming Xiao Yuan sneered as he thought to himself, "You think you're worthy of being called a talent?"

"Since he is my teacher's junior brother, Guanyu will do everything in his power to capture the culprit. Only, Master doesn't seem to be sad. "

"You mean I'm the killer?" Mingxiao looked at her coldly without any hint of anger or panic.

"It's just a joke, there's no need to be so serious." Qin Xiaoliu suddenly thought of Mo Qingfeng, and with a hint of deep affection he said, "The Great Master works for the country. If his senior brother has any problems, Yu Gong will do his best to help him." After she finished speaking, she looked at the completely stiff corpse, "It's not that the opponent is proficient in martial arts, it's just some underhanded methods." With that, she started to walk around the window. Mingxiao did not know what she was looking for, so he followed her to look. He saw that she had found a small hole in the window furthest away from the bed. If he did not look carefully, he would not have been able to see it. "This hole is so new, and it's also so neat and tidy. It's definitely not a hole made by a mosquito, and it's definitely not a crack made over a long period of time. Last night's expert just stuck his pipe in the window and used his pipe to turn over General Ling. "

"My lord, you are indeed observant." Dunyambo praised in time.

Qin Xiaolian shook his head and smiled wryly, "I am an expert at using knockout drugs, how could I hide this kind of trick from you? However, it is inevitable that upright people like General Ling will have their way. "

"From what you're saying, Sir Qin, do you know who the culprit is?"

Qin Xiaoliu saw the worry that was deliberately concealed on Mingxiao Yuan's eternally calm face. "What? Does a person with a iron-like heart like teacher care about his junior brother?"

Mingxiao was infuriated. He suddenly wanted to know how Mo Qingfeng got along with him. Qin Xiao seemed to be addicted to flirting with a handsome guy like Ming Xiao Yuan, so he asked again, "Master, how was Master Mo when we were together? Are you being naughty or dependent on you? Why does he always look down on you now? Could it be that you have angered the Lord Mo because you had pampered General Ling? "

"You!" Mingxiao had never seen such a shameless person who didn't care about his own worries. He recognized that he couldn't beat Qin Xiaoliu, so he turned around and said coldly, "If there's anything wrong with Guanyu, don't forget to tell him." With that, he turned and left, not wanting to stay a moment longer.

Qin Xiao watched as his figure disappeared into the distance. He turned around and said to Deng JIbo, "He's already gone. If you want to say something, say it!"

Deng Jiebo quickly invited Qin Xiaolian to the bedside. "Assistant Minister, this little one has a question for you." He pointed at the wound and said, "According to the rules, a person's finger should be extremely strong. After all, it is as long as a person's body. The wound that enters the body should be smooth and slightly constricted. But look at the general's wound. If you look carefully, there is actually a little bit of flesh at the edge of the wound.

Qin Xiaolian sneered in his heart. Wei Ling's pair of iron gloves had not even been used by her, yet she had already been taken by someone else. "That glove is good, the flexibility of the joints is not much different from a real hand. However, the more flexible the joints, the more metal pieces will be embedded, and the more damage done to the joints cannot be compared to a real hand." This phrase will just rot in my stomach. Don't say it out loud. "

"Yes." As someone who knew how to read people's eyes, he knew that there was definitely something fishy going on. He had been in the government for a long time in order not to cause too much trouble.

With his hands behind his back, Qin Xiaoliu walked out of the room, "Oh little master, you little bastard, you are becoming more and more shameless. Other than knockout drugs, what else do you know? What else do you know? " She stood in the courtyard, looking at the bustling people as she called out to the sky. Suddenly, her feet spun as she retreated backwards. Her right hand grabbed a flying knife from the air. The officers of the Ministry of Justice quickly encircled Qin Xiao, protecting him in the middle. Qin Xiao took off the slip of paper from the blade. After looking at it, he stuffed it into his sleeve. He could faintly see her anger. "What guts." As soon as she said those two words, she rushed out of the courtyard like an arrow leaving the bow. She cast down a crowd of surprised people and heard a voice from the air, "No need to follow me!"

Everyone looked at each other. After a while, someone asked, "Did you guys see how the lord got out of the room?"

"Should we go out and follow to protect them?"

Dunyapo smiled and shook his head. "Protection? As for us, let's not cause trouble for the Lord. The Lord has his own plans. "
