Wen Zheng had just killed the man who wanted to do something wrong to Ye Chu, but he didn't expect that there was an ambush behind him, and he was injured by him without noticing for a while.

Fortunately, Wen Zheng was agile and turned around decisively to kill the man who attacked him.

Ye Chu looked at Wen Wen's new wounds, and didn't know what to say for a moment, he could only watch Yunxiu step forward to support Wen Zheng, and called Zhi Qing to call the doctor.

Just when everyone was anxious, Wen Zheng glanced at the two corpses on the ground with frowning eyes, shook his head and said in a low voice: "Don't disturb others, no one in the palace will know when I come out this time."

Ye Chu nodded, and took two steps forward to grab Zhi Qing.

She sighed and said: "Although the concubine doesn't know why the emperor came out this time, but you are injured, the most important thing right now is to find a safe place to bandage the wound."

While Ye Chu was talking, he frowned and looked at the bloody place on Xia Wenzheng's shoulder, and there was a trace of imperceptible distress in his eyes.

Hearing what Ye Chu said, Wen Zheng nodded.

Enduring the pain of his wound, he left Huafang under Yunxiu's guidance, walked along the path of Ye's house, and came to the boudoir where Ye Chu lived temporarily.

The news of the Queen's sudden departure from the banquet spread, and the ladies who came to the banquet looked at each other in dismay, all looking at Liu Ruyi who was still entertaining guests in the middle of the venue with inexplicable expressions.

There was a bit of inquiry hidden in the eyes of everyone, and Liu Ruyi couldn't help sighing in her heart when she heard the maid's report.

But she still maintained a graceful and decent smile on her face, and said to everyone: "The empress is often tired recently after being pregnant with a dragon child. I think I should go back to rest at this time. If this is the case, you don't have to restrain yourself!"

After a brief silence, the workshop on the cruise ship in the back garden was still as lively as before.The ladies and wives were wearing luxurious clothes, and they gathered together in twos and threes to talk in low voices, and their gentle and gentle voices showed everyone's demeanor.

Zhi Qing couldn't help but look up at the beautifully decorated hall in the painting boat, put her blood-stained hands into her sleeves, and hid them a little deeper.

Ye Chu stayed in her boudoir to treat Wen Zheng's wounds, and she and Yunxiu rushed to drag out the two corpses that had been hastily hidden in the compartment just now and dispose of them.

At this time, there were noble people on the boat, and Ye Chu specifically told them not to disturb others, so the two daughters took a lot of effort when they dragged the corpse away.

Yunxiu couldn't help but licked her lips, and looked back at the place where the corpse was hidden.As if thinking of something, she buried her head in her chest again in a panic, not daring to lift it up.

When the two left the boat and walked on the gravel road with no one around, Yunxiu said worriedly: "The two corpses will not be hidden for long, and the blood stains on the boat will also be found, what should we do then?" ?”

Seeing Yunxiu's frightened face, Zhiqing pursed her lips, feeling a little worried.But soon she thought of Ye Chu's confident expression and Wen Zhenggui's indescribable status, and boundless courage suddenly surged in her heart.

"Yunxiu, what are you afraid of!" Zhi Qing stared at Yunxiu with a fierce look on purpose, sneering at her worries.

"Don't forget who the two of us are working for. The emperor will definitely have a way to clean up the hands of this matter. Besides, even if the corpse in the workshop is found, it will be a few hours later. , the lady who attended the banquet will have already left."

As long as all the guests participating in the banquet leave, this matter will be sealed in the prime minister's mansion, and outsiders will have no way of knowing.And as the master of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ye Kang will never sit idly by!

The fact is indeed the case, when the servant girl was taking items on the painting boat, she accidentally broke through the two corpses hidden in the storage room, and she immediately reported it to Liu Ruyi.

Liu Ruyi was worried that the guests who came to the banquet would be frightened. These high-ranking wives and ladies were not easy to offend, so she could only look pale and wait for the banquet to end.

After delivering the last guest, the stiff smile on Liu Ruyi's face disappeared suddenly, and then she led the group of servants around her to the compartment above the workshop for storing items.

The two bloody corpses scared many maids, but the servants of the Ye family are not young, and they are all women who have seen storms.

Following Liu Ruyi's order, the servants who were tall and rough came forward and dragged the corpse out, and ordered the storage room to be cleaned up.

Ye Kang, who was working in the study in the front yard, heard that a strange man had died in the back house, he was startled, and brought his cronies over to check.

After learning what had happened, Ye Kang suddenly asked: "You mean that in the middle of the banquet... about an hour ago, Chu'er returned to rest in his yard because of physical discomfort?"

Liu Ruyi was holding a veil in her hand, and there were tears in the corners of her eyes.She nodded, and replied with a worried look on her face, and her tone was still a little choked up.

No one expected such a thing to happen at the banquet, and no one knew who the murderer was.

Thinking about the situation at that time, if the murderer killed not these two strange men, but the rich and powerful lady who participated in the banquet...or even Ye Chu who was pregnant with the prince, then there would be a big problem!

Compared with Liu Ruyi's worry that could be seen through at a glance, Ye Kang's expression was much more gloomy.

He turned his head to look in the direction of the courtyard where Ye Chu lived, slowly narrowed his eyes, and suddenly beckoned to his confidant standing beside him to whisper something.

It didn't take long before Ye Kang's confidants came out leading a group of guards who looked particularly fierce and began to search Ye's house.

Liu Ru thought that the scope of their search included the residence of the women in the back house, so she wanted to stop her, but Ye Kang gave her a warning look.

"This matter is related to the safety of the empress, that is to say, it is related to the royal family! As a courtier, how can we shirk and obstruct the country's major affairs because of some trivial matters?"

Ye Kang's reasons were aboveboard, and Liu Ruyi still felt a little guilty when she heard this, so she hurriedly backed away.

So Ye Kang led the people to search everywhere, whether it was intentional or not, the search route soon came to Ye Chu's yard.

At this time, Wen Zheng was looking down at the new injury on his body, and said this to Ye Chu without saying a word.Most of the time, he was asking Ye Chu, but Ye Chu didn't want to answer.

At this moment, there was a neat and clear sound of golden swords outside the courtyard, and at the same time, from far to near, were the footsteps of guards blocking the courtyard.

When Wen Zheng heard the voices outside, his heart tensed up, and he instinctively felt that something was wrong.

Hearing such a sound, Ye Chu was also a little puzzled, so he got up and walked out.
