Charm King Poison Queen

  Chapter 689 Sending troops to Yunzhou (1)

  Xiaoping has been gossiping these days, and Ma Yuan has made a fuss about the main routes in the palace. After leaving the East Palace, Ma Yuan went directly to Zijing Road, which was the only way from the Bodhi Palace to the Zhengnan Gate. Rong Qing would definitely pass there if he was going to the Marshal's Mansion.

  In the distance, Ma Yuan saw a traveling team, not sure if it belonged to Rong Qing, he stood on tiptoe to have a look. At this moment, an old man came up to him and bumped him.

  The other party was wearing a black cloak, imposing and majestic, and coming from the direction of Fengqi Palace, he should have a close relationship with the queen, Ma Yuan didn't want to offend him, fearing to startle the snake, so Fu lowered himself and saluted.

  The old man in black robe shook his sleeves and left.

   Out of the vigilance of martial arts practitioners, Ma Yuan checked the things on his body and found that there was neither too much nor too little, so he was relieved and regarded everything as an accident.

  He quickly raised his head again to look at the team on Bauhinia Road, but there was no one in sight.

  He sighed secretly, maybe it was Rong Qing, but he missed it, **** old man! What are you doing hitting him? He missed again!

Ma Yuan stepped back to the East Palace. Suddenly, a breeze blew, mixed with a faint smell of blood. His eyes moved, and when he came to an old locust tree, he saw the prince's eyes wide open, pointing to the sky, and his whole body trembled. Lying in a pool of blood.

   "His Royal Highness!" He hurried over, knelt down and touched the prince's acupoints, trying to prevent a large amount of blood loss, "Your Highness, how are you doing, Your Highness?"

"Who? Who's that over there?" A royal guard ran over with a long sword, looked at Ma Yuan, then at the blood-stained prince in Ma Yuan's arms, and shouted, "Bold madman, He actually assassinated the prince! Someone! Arrest him!"

  Ma Yuan didn't even have a chance to argue, so he was caught as a murderer.

  The assassination of the prince caused an uproar in the Southern Border Palace. It is true that the imperial palaces of all dynasties are not a clean place without sin. No matter how glamorous and clear its appearance is, the undercurrents hidden under the appearance are like invisible scourges, quietly swallowing everything that is defeated in the struggle. crowd.

  However, the apparent assassination has never happened since the king of Nanjiang ascended the throne, especially, the target of the assassination was still his favorite prince.

   This is even more unacceptable to him than Qu Lao being killed.

  The king of Nanjiang called the Minister of Dali Temple and asked him to investigate the matter thoroughly. He will never tolerate any traitor and never let any murderer go!

  The crown prince died in Ma Yuan's arms. The situation was very unfavorable to Ma Yuan. What's more sad, Dali Temple Minister found a dagger from Ma Yuan's body, a **** dagger.

   This dagger belonged to Ma Yuan, but Ma Yuan couldn't remember when it was stained with blood, or it was blood that had not frozen for a long time.

How did that happen?

  Since he left Linzi City, he hasn't killed with it for a long time, let alone blood, there should be no dust.

Ma Yuan thought of the black-robed old man who bumped into him. Although he didn't understand how the other party did it, he pulled out the dagger, smeared blood on the blade, and sheathed the dagger, all in an instant. ...But Ma Yuan's intuition told him that no one had the chance to tamper with his dagger except the old man in black.

  Why did that person frame him? Is he the murderer?

If it was in Xiliang, Ma Yuan believed that as long as he confessed to the suspect, there would be a possibility of overturning the case. However, this is the territory of southern Xinjiang. As an outsider, when he confronted the local officials, no one would believe him. his words.
