Chapter 452 Ominous Moon(1/2)
In the evening, the weather is gloomy.
In the Furong Garden of the Western Garden of the Imperial Palace, Zhan Zhaohe Baiyutang stood side by side, holding his arms and raising his face to look at the Sihai Palace in front of him.
I haven't seen each other for a few days, and the Sihai Palace is still so lifeless.
Zhan Zhao looked at the small building and turned to look at Bai Yutang.
Bai Yutang also turned his face to look at him.
"We probably have the same idea?" Zhan Zhao asked.
Bai Yutang nodded.
Then, the two of them did not enter the door, but jumped to the roof of Sihai Tower.
Sihai Tower is still relatively high, of course, this is nothing to Zhan Zhao Baiyutang with excellent light skills.
After the two of them landed smoothly on the roof, they walked around the four sides of the eaves. Sure enough, they all stopped in the same place...the tiles there showed obvious signs of being lifted.
The two exchanged a look of "as expected" and reached out and lifted the tiles together.
Under the tiles, there was an unexpected hole, which was just enough for a person to enter and exit.
The shark went down first, and soon looked up and nodded to Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang.
The two of them then went down and found that there was an altar on the top floor, with many jars and white porcelain jars. They looked like they were dressed in ashes. However, there were no tablets in front of the urn, only different statues, probably with symbolic meanings inside. After Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked around, their eyes were all on one of the white jars.
Zhan Zhao walked over and stared at the jar - he saw black marks on the jar, which looked like dried blood.
Bai Yutang frowned slightly - How could there be blood in the urn?
The cheesy reached out to open the lid and looked inside.
While he opened the lid, Zhan Zhaohe Bai Yutang subconsciously covered his mouth and nose. The first reaction between the two was - to open the window!
When he opened the window, he saw that the shark had reached into the urn to get things. Bai Yutang had no time to stop him.
The cheesy chess was already holding a half-decayed head and stood there...
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at the head in the hands of the shark shark together - it was an old man's head, with a simple bun on his head, a lot of gray and wrinkles in his skin, a very rotten face, a fuzzy flesh and blood, and there were bugs.
Bai Yutang pointed at the shark and said, "Put it back! Don't touch things that are unclean!"
The shark blinked and put the head back into the jar.
"Go and wash your hands." Bai Yutang pointed out the window.
The shark went out of the window and arrived at the small river outside the Furong Garden. She squatted and washed her hands. While washing, she looked up at Bai Yutang, looking quite well-behaved.
Zhan Zhao patted Bai Yutang on the shoulder, "Relax and relax, it doesn't matter if the cheesy chess is not a physical one. Look, he has washed for a long time and there is no blood in the river."
Bai Yutang sighed and waved to him. The shark shark flashed and had already returned to them. While reaching out to check Bai Yutang. Bai Yutang nodded when he saw that his blue hands were clean.
Zhan Zhao walked to the wall and pulled off a long strip of cloth embroidered with scriptures, spread it on the ground, signaling the shark-mock-every jar was opened!
The shark looked at the jar one by one and poured everything inside on the cloth strip. There were four heads in total, and there were no other body limbs.
Zhan Zhaohe Bai Yutang was stunned - there were four heads of unknown origin hidden in the Sihai Palace.
At this time, the two of them subconsciously looked out the window and saw shadow guards squatting on the roofs outside the windows on both sides, probably because the smell had attracted them.
The shadow guards were all pale at this moment. They could not see the mermaids at all, so they only saw the urns flying into the air, and then the bloody heads floated out.
At this time, a man landed on the windowsill and looked in. Ge Qing was coming.
The Shadow Guard had just reported that Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang found a corpse on the top floor of the Sihai Palace. Nangong did not dare to leave Zhao Zhen at all, so he asked Ge Qing to take a look.
Zhan Zhao waved to Ge Qing.
Ge Qing jumped in and frowned at the head on the ground.
There are three men and one woman in total, three men and one woman, one is very old, and the other two are quite young. Women are not young, about thirty years old. Although they are a little rotten, they look pretty good from the remaining part.
Ge Qing looked carefully and shook his head, "None of them are from the palace."
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both breathed a sigh of relief. No one in the palace has been missing recently, so if these corpses are from the palace, it means that someone killed them and pretended to be them and sneaked into the palace.
But...
Zhan Zhao touched his chin, "Why should he put his head in the Sihai Palace?"
"Did these urns contain ashes?" Bai Yutang asked Ge Qing.
Ge Qing shook his head and looked confused - he was still young after all, and he knew little about the matter in the palace. Besides, not to mention Ge Qing in the Four Seas Palace, Zhao Zhen probably couldn't understand what was being pretended inside.
"But..." Ge Qing tilted his head and looked at the old man, "I seem to have seen him somewhere."
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned, "You said he was not from the palace."
Ge Qing nodded quickly, "Yes, it must not be from the palace. We all remember the appearance of the palace people carefully. I should have seen this person outside the palace, where have you seen it?"
"You can't leave the palace often, right?" Zhan Zhao asked.
Ge Qing nodded, "I've been very busy recently. I haven't been out for a long time. I'm going to take a spring test. Chunhua and Wang Qi and the others are not available. Recently, even the princess is preparing for the exam..."
Zhan Zhao knew that Ge Qing was very stupid. Princess Zhao Lan was famous for causing trouble. The guards refused to accompany her. Every time she went out, she had to decide the outcome. Ge Qing always lost, so she kept working as bodyguards for these nerds who could cause trouble, and became friends after a while.
"Princess..." Ge Qing said that Zhao Lan suddenly reached out and patted her head, "Ah! I remembered it! I have seen all four of them!"
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both looked at him, "Who is it?"
Ge Qing said, "A while ago, Wang Qi celebrated her birthday, and the princess asked him where he wanted to go. Wang Qi said she wanted to go to Yuelou to watch a show. Usually, the prime minister was strict and he was not allowed to go. He was allowed to go on the day of his birthday, so we went together!"
As he said that, Ge Qing pointed at the old man, "This old man is the headmaster of Yuelou! That woman is the famous actor Lin Jier, and the two men are also performing."
After Ge Qing finished speaking, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other - Is there really something wrong with this Yuelou?
"The Yue Tower is full every day." Zhan Zhao frowned, "These people have died for a short time, but it is obviously not a day or two, so it is impossible for no one to notice."
"The only possibility is that someone pretends to behave?" Bai Yutang asked.
"Why should I hide my head in the Four Seas Palace?" Zhan Zhao couldn't figure it out.
Ge Qing called a shadow guard to go out to investigate. After a while, the guard came back and said that Yuelou was as usual recently, and the drama was performed, all the characters were there, and the scenes were full of nothing unusual.
"The headmaster is here too?" Ge Qing asked.
The guard nodded, obviously having investigated it clearly, "The headmaster of Yuelou is Chen Yuehai, 68 years old. Although he does not act in person, he organizes business and makes friends in Yuelou every day, and many people know him."
Zhan Zhao touched his chin, "Then why haven't I seen it before? I only know that the shopkeeper of Sihai Palace is called Xu Ban. He deals with him every time, and I thought he was the headmaster."
"Normal, Chen Yuehai doesn't deal with people in the officialdom." Ge Qing said, "It's hard to get tickets from Yuelou. The princess asked the uncle to get the tickets. When the tickets were delivered, the uncle told me that when I went to Yuelou to watch a show, I must not say that I am from the palace or an official. If I say that I will be invited to the private room upstairs, it will be boring to watch it. It seems that it is the rule of Yuelou. On the surface, it looks like taking care of the official family, but in fact it doesn't make you feel comfortable and told you not to come next time."
Zhan Zhao frowned, "So strange?"
Ge Qing nodded, "The little marquis said that Chen Yuehai hates dealing with officials the most, and no officials are seen."
Zhan Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "My uncle and the little marquis... are they referring to Pang Yu?"
Ge Qing made Zhan Zhao amused and nodded, "Natural."
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other and smiled. Zhan Zhao said to Ge Qing, "Catch Pang Yu in the shortest time..."
Before they finished speaking, Ge Qing flew out. Sure enough, not long after, the two heard Pang Yu's screams...
“Wow!”
Looking again, outside the window, Ge Qing carried Pang Yu up.
After Pang Yu hit his feet on the ground, he patted his chest, "What's this for... Mom!"
The little marquis just looked up and saw the head in front of him. He screamed and jumped up and crawled behind Ge Qing, "Good luck!"
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang waved helplessly to Pang Yu who was too frightened and signaled - Don't be afraid! Come out.
As soon as he saw Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, Pang Yu looked at the sky. Since he got involved with the people from Kaifeng Prefecture, he has always suffered some unpredictable disasters.
He reached out to block his eyes and approached Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, and Pang Yu asked, "Why are you more unlucky than me? Wherever you go, people die, and one is more tragic than the other."
Zhan Zhao pushed his hand away, pointing at the heads and asked, "Is that the Yuelou headmaster and a few corners?"
Pang Yu was stunned, tilted his head, "Moon Tower..."
Then, the little marquis held back the disgust and took a courage to take a look... and was stunned.
"Eh?" Pang Yu walked closer and stared at him carefully, then scratched his head, "Really... Isn't this Chen Yuehai? Oh, it's a sin! Why did Lin Ji'er, a great beauty, end up?"
"Are you sure that's?" Zhan Zhaohe Bai Yutang asked.
"It must be true!" The little marquis looked puzzled and scratched his head, "There is no reason. I went to the opera the night before yesterday... Lin Ji'er is so good and energetic."
Bai Yutang suddenly asked, "Can you get a ticket all the time?"
Pang Yu nodded and slapped his chest, "It's hard to grab the tickets from Yuelou, but I naturally have a way. By the way, the only one who can get tickets in Kaifeng is easier than me."
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned, "Young Sizi can get tickets more than you?"
"That's not!" Pang Yu looked at the two of them speechlessly, "Don't you know? Whether it is a theater, a canteen, a piano pavilion, or a restaurant in Kaifeng Mansion, even if it is full, as long as the name of Xiao Sizi is reported, you will be added to the seat."
Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows, "So much face?"
"That's not!" Pang Yu pointed helplessly, "and I bought it for money or asked my friend. I didn't need it, so I smiled and shouted 'Sister'. Even Chang Xianglian asked him to come in and listen to Qin for snacks, and cooked wontons for him to eat."
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang couldn't help but sigh - Chang Xianglian was the first piano girl in the Song Dynasty. She played the piano well. Usually, guests could only listen outside through the door panel or even several floors. This woman was very noble and didn't like the emperor. Chang Xianglian cherished her hands as if she had sex, and actually made wontons for Xiao Sizi to eat. This treatment... But then she thought about it again, even Concubine Pang would cook snacks for Xiao Sizi to eat, but she was the imperial concubine.
