Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child

Xiao Yan took the arrow and looked at it, his expression changed a little.

Wei Liao also frowned when he saw the arrow.

"The system of this arrow is very similar to the arrow in the army."

Xiao Lian said solemnly, "It's just like."

Wei Liao took a closer look and found that this arrow was slightly different from the arrows in the army in details.

"Any other discoveries?" he asked.

Yannanguan: "There is still a lot of money hidden on the boat. We checked and found that the money should have been looted by the water bandits. That is to say, the boat is indeed owned by the water bandits."

Wang Yue couldn't help but interrupt.

"Could it be that the group of water bandits were retaliated by their enemies? They make a living by robbing passing merchant ships. People like them must have many enemies."

Xiao Lian looked at the arrow in his hand and said slowly.

"People who can use this kind of arrows are definitely not ordinary people."

Wei Liao continued.

"The other party only kills people and doesn't want property, which shows that they don't care about the money at all.

A mere group of water bandits, can they provoke such a formidable enemy?

Could it be that they not only robbed merchant ships, but also robbed official ships? "

Wang Yue immediately shook his head.

"That's not true, these water bandits are not crazy, how could they dare to rob the official ship?

If they dared to attack the official ships, the imperial court would have sent troops to destroy them. "

Luo Pingsha said thoughtfully.

"One more thing, if it's really for vengeance, just kill the person, but what about the corpse?

Why is there no one on the boat? "

Wei Liao smiled softly.

"It's getting more and more interesting."

Wang Yue didn't find it interesting at all, he rubbed his arms with a look of fear on his face.

"Could it be that those who were killed by them turned into ghosts to seek revenge for them?"

Yan Nanguan was speechless: "It's a pity that you don't write a script for your imagination."

Wei Liao suggested: "That group of water bandits often operate in this area, which means that their old nest should be nearby. Why don't we look for their old nest?"

Wang Yue cried out in horror.

"It's not necessary, let's just pretend that there is no such thing, can't we?

Anyway, that group of water bandits is not a good thing, and they deserve it if they die. Leave them alone. "

Xiao Lian didn't care about the life and death of the water bandits, but he was very concerned about the origin of this arrow.

The person who can make this kind of arrow is probably related to the military.

He made a quick decision.

"check."

Wang Yue was reluctant in every possible way, but he dared not refuse to obey the prestige of Prince Lang's reputation.

The merchant ship slowed down and went all the way along the river bank.

As a result, they really found the traces left by the water bandits.

There is a small ferry by the river, because it is blocked by trees, if you don't look carefully, you can't find its existence.

In all probability, it is possible to get a ferry in a place where there is no front or back of the village or a store, so that it is convenient for the group of water bandits to go and loot.

Yannanguan took the Eagle Guards to approach the ferry in a small boat, and landed from the ferry.

Others stayed on board and waited.

Everyone waited for a long time before the Yannanguan group came back.

Yan Nanguan's face was ugly.

"His Royal Highness Qiqiang, we found the old lair of the water bandits, but all the water bandits died, their bodies and houses were all burned clean, and not a single living hole was left."

Wei Liao became more and more interested and planned to go ashore to see for himself.

Xiao Yan also decided to go to the scene to see the situation.

The boat set off again.

Xiao Juan and Wei Liao disembarked from Xiaodukou.

They walked along the mountain road and found that the grass and trees on the side of the road were stained with blood.

If you look closely, you can still see bloodstains on the ground, which should be the traces left when the corpse was dragged.

Wei Liao clicked his tongue.

"Tsk tsk, even if you kill people, you have to drag the corpse back to burn it. The hobby of this group of people is a bit strange."

When they found the stockade where the water bandits lived, they saw a scorched black, and the entire stockade had been burnt to ruins.

Peeling off the collapsed beam, you can see the charred corpse that was burned beyond recognition.

These scorched corpses are all concentrated in one place.

It means that after those people killed the water bandits, they deliberately dragged the corpses here and burned them centrally.

Wei Liao touched his chin: "Why do they do this?"

Xiao Yan looked at the ruins in front of him, and was silent for a while before he spoke.

"Perhaps to facilitate counting."

Wei Liao suddenly said: "Yes, there are so many water bandits, plus their family members, there must be a lot of people, in order to avoid fish slipping through the net, those people will definitely count the number."

He rarely praised Xiao Yan once.

"As expected of Prince Lang, the speculation about the murderous madman is too accurate."

Xiao Yan ignored the yin and yang of this guy.

His eyes stayed on one of the charred corpses for a long time, and he found that the charred corpse's right hand was clenched into a fist, and a little green could be faintly seen between the fingers.

Like holding something in your hand?

Xiao Lian raised his foot and walked over.

He used the knife of no return to pry open the fingers of the scorched corpse, and a green emerald bracelet rolled to the ground.

Xiao Yan wrapped the bracelet with a handkerchief and picked it up.

At this time Wei Liao also came over.

"The texture is transparent and clear, and the color is bright and green. It's a good thing!"

Xiao Lian turned the bracelet in a circle, his eyes stayed on the inside of the bracelet, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

Wei Liao immediately asked, "What did you find?"

He reached out to take a look at the bracelet.

However, Xiao Yan avoided his hand and wrapped the bracelet in his sleeve.

"It's nothing, go back."

Wei Liao was very dissatisfied: "Hey, you obviously found a clue, why didn't you tell me? You can't be so selfish and stingy!"

Xiao Yan was too lazy to pay attention to him, so he squatted down and checked the charred corpse in front of him.

Male, medium build, cause of death was an arrow pierced through the heart.

Because the corpse was burnt so badly, Xiao Juan could see this for a while.

He instructed the Eagle Guards behind him.

"Take this body back."

"Here."

The Eagle Guards made a simple stretcher with branches and carried the male coke down the mountain.

Wang Yue was relieved when he saw that they had finally returned, and was about to speak to urge them to leave this place of right and wrong, when he saw that the Eagle Guards even brought back a charred corpse!

Wang Yue gasped in fright on the spot and almost fainted.

"Why did you bring this thing back? Throw it off the boat!"

Xiao Juan said in a low voice, "This is important physical evidence and cannot be thrown away."

After he finished speaking, he ignored Wang Yue, who was anxious and afraid, and turned his head to instruct Luo Pingsha.

"This corpse is handed over to you for examination, and give me the results as soon as possible."

"Here."

Then Xiao Yan walked straight towards the cabin.

Wang Yue couldn't wait to shout: "Quickly sail, quick!"

The merchant ship set sail again, and after leaving the small ferry port, continued along the original route.

In the guest room, heaved a long sigh of relief when he saw Xiao Yan returned safely.

Yu curling asked the reason for the stop.

Xiao Yan told her that the water bandit was killed, and took out the jade bracelet wrapped in a handkerchief from his sleeve.

"This is no ordinary bracelet, it flows from the palace."

Xiao Juan: If there is an important discovery, of course, you must be the first to tell my Baoer.
