Xiao Zhong frowned, "What Yizi Village?"

"What kind of person is this?"

"Speak clearly!"

Huang Yue swallowed his saliva before saying, "Master, some time ago, you and several other princes, along with Tian Ruomo, got into a fight in the Imperial Study and were punished. Because you were too angry and couldn't vent, you took us, wearing the Imperial Guards' uniforms, and went to massacre a village!"

"That village is called Yizi Village!"

Xiao Zhong then remembered something and said "Oh".

Then, his face suddenly turned dark.

"What did you say?"

"Is there anyone left alive at the scene who saw me?"

Huang Yue nodded with certainty, "The child claimed to have seen the master and remembered the leader's appearance. He also said that he could recognize him even if he turned into ashes."

"The key is that he went to that woman named Tian Ruomo, and that woman started to meddle in other people's business again!"

Xiao Zhong's expression became even uglier. "What are you doing?"

"How can we leave them alive?"

Huang Yue really didn't know how to answer. He had led people to search thoroughly, door to door!

I even checked carefully to see if there was a cellar or something like that!

Not finding anyone, they set fire to the village!

Han Bing's face darkened as well, and he said in a deep voice, "Are you going to massacre the village again?"

Neither Xiao Zhong nor Huang Yue said anything.

Han Bing slapped the stone table hard, "Zhong'er, didn't I tell you not to do that kind of thing again?"

"If someone catches me, how can I seize the throne in the future?"

Xiao Zhong looked embarrassed, "Uncle, isn't it just killing a few hundred untouchables?"

"It's not that serious, it's just a child. Even if he has seen me, what does it matter?"

"Where else will he have the chance to see this king again?"

"Killing Tian Ruomo is difficult, but killing a civilian child is easy, isn't it?"

Han Bing was very angry. He had repeatedly warned Xiao Chong not to massacre civilians at will.

There are too many opponents, and things can easily get into trouble!

Once the massacre of civilians became known to the public, although Xiao Chong was a prince and would generally not lose his life, he would definitely lose his chance of becoming emperor.

But Xiao Chong just wouldn't listen to him. Whenever he got angry, he wanted to kill someone to vent his anger.

The key point is that he didn't just kill one person, he killed everyone in the entire village.

No one, young or old, male or female, will be left alive!

We did a good job before, no one could find any clues and couldn't trace the blame to Xiao Zhong.

Now comes the trouble.

He left someone alive and found Tian Ruomo to support him.

Seeing that Han Bing was really angry, Xiao Zhong had no choice but to bow his head and say, "Uncle, I was wrong!"

Han Bing looked at Xiao Zhong. After all, he was also a king.

He also knew that Xiao Zhong respected him as his uncle, which was why he was so humble.

Xiao Zhong could only vent his anger by slaughtering the untouchables.

He originally wanted to say a few words to Xiao Zhong, but now he couldn't bear to say it.

Han Bing calmed down, looked at Huang Yue, and said in a deep voice, "It has already happened. Huang Yue, send out the assassins in the mansion to kill the witness!"

This matter is extremely serious. Xiao Chong's massacre of civilians must not be exposed.

That living person must be killed at all costs.

Huang Yue's eyes turned cold, and he bowed respectfully, "Yes, Lord!"

He turned and walked out, sending out the death squad from the Dai Wang Palace to look for an opportunity to kill Zhu Youcai.

On the other side, Tian Ruomo personally took Zhu Youcai and his nephew to the imperial guards camp in the capital to identify people.

The generals of the imperial guards, both high and low, lined up for Zhu Youcai to identify.

Zhu Youcai looked back and forth several times and shook his head to indicate that the person he was looking for was not here.

Tian Ruomo frowned and looked at the commander of the Imperial Guards, Zhang Xiong, "Are all the people here?"

Zhang Xiong took out a booklet and handed it to Tian Rumo.

"Princess, this is the list of all the generals of the Imperial Guards. Every one of them is here!"

Yao Dongfang's expression was somewhat ugly, "Zhu Youcai, you have to look carefully!"

Zhu Youcai said seriously, "As long as the leader stands in front of me, I can recognize him at a glance!"

"He is very old. Oh, and there is a big mole at the corner of his mouth. It is red under the torchlight."

"I don't know if it was stained red by the blood, or if it was originally red!"

"None of these people has a mole on the corner of their mouth, so none of them is it!"

Zhang Xiong was pleased when he heard this and glared at Yao Dongfang, "Master Yao, did you hear that clearly?"

"Don't throw dirty water on our Imperial Guards. Maybe someone is pretending to be a Imperial Guard and committing a crime!"

Yao Dongfang seemed a little embarrassed. Although he was the official in charge of investigating the case, his rank was much lower than that of the commander of the imperial guards.

He had no choice but to look at Zhu Youcai, "Are you sure the person you saw was a member of the Imperial Guard?"

Zhu Youcai did not hesitate and said firmly, "What I saw was definitely the clothes of the Imperial Guards. As for whether they were real Imperial Guards, I don't know!"

Tian Ruomo thought for a moment and said, "Then let's walk around. You can look at the ordinary soldiers casually to see if you find anything!"

An hour later, Tian Ruomo, Zhu Youcai and others came out of the imperial army camp.

Zhu Youcai didn't find anyone in the imperial army camp and seemed a little frustrated!

He had such a good opportunity, with the support of the princess, to avenge his parents and grandmother, but he couldn't find anyone.

From now on, how can I take revenge without the help of the princess?

Tian Ruomo smiled and comforted Zhu Youcai, "Don't worry, since I know there is such a cruel thing and such a vicious person, I will not just leave it alone."

"Moreover, Lord Yao's analysis is very likely correct. Even if this group of people are not the imperial guards, they are definitely not ordinary bandits. They may be powerful figures in the capital."

"We came to the Imperial Guards camp with such fanfare today to identify people. Maybe the other party already knows about it. It's very dangerous."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Renyi panicked.

"Then, Madam Princess, what should we do now?"

Tian Ruomo chuckled, "I'll take care of this matter. Your safety will be guaranteed by the Qi Palace and the Chu Palace!"

"You two uncles, go to the Prince of Chu's mansion and hide for a while. Wait until I find a way and investigate thoroughly before coming out!"

Zhu Renyi was overjoyed and pulled Zhu Youcai to kneel down to express his gratitude. Tian Rumo motioned Chunxiao to pull them up, and then ordered Chunxiao to take some guards to escort them to the Prince of Chu's Palace in person, and let the people in the Prince of Chu's Palace protect the uncle and nephew.

After watching the two leave, Tian Ruomo instructed Yao Dongfang, "Do your best to investigate this case. If you encounter any resistance, just come to me!"

"As long as you are acting for the people, I will support you. No matter who is involved, we will investigate it thoroughly."

"After all, the massacre of five villages is no small matter. If you can do this well, I guarantee that you will have a successful career in the government in the future."

Yao Dongfang suddenly seemed to be energized. He straightened his chest and nodded repeatedly.

With Tian Rumo's words, he could use all his strength to find clues.

Tian Ruomo is in a high position and has great power, so it is definitely a good thing to be favored by her.

If he can handle this matter well, his conscience will be at ease, after all, it is within his scope of responsibility.

Another thing is that he will definitely get a promotion and a raise, and have a bright future.
