Zhou Qian woke up instantly after hearing this.
He heard it right, and he wasn't dreaming.
Hua Yi was really struck to death by lightning!
"Su Peiyuan, show off at the Imperial Manor!"
Zhou Qian was not afraid of the slanting shadow when he was upright, so he naturally did not believe that the thunder and lightning trick would come true for him.
same.
He also didn't believe that Hua Yi would be struck to death by lightning for no reason.
There must be something hidden in it!
"Your Majesty, the Dragon Guard from Princess Xian's Mansion has come to report. Lord Ning should also have gone to the Imperial Mansion with Princess Xian."
"Then send more people, and... put King Kang and King Jin... Forget it, King Jin is not here, let's ask King Kang to come to the palace first."
Su Peiyuan felt awe-struck when he heard Zhou Qian's order.
His Majesty specially called King Kang to the palace at this time, as if to prevent accidents from happening.
Tonight's thunderstorm has passed, and the bright moon has appeared in the sky.
However, Su Peiyuan felt that there was a storm in the dark that had just begun.
…
In the woods outside the palace.
Manager Zhang was leading the people in Zhuangzi to cut down the trees that were struck by lightning and extinguished but were still smoking, to prevent them from re-igniting and burning the entire forest with the wind.
As for the bodies of the three people on the carriage and Hua Yi's body, since everyone had never thought about being struck by lightning, they could only take off their coats and put them on the bodies.
Except for Hua Yi's body, which could barely tell who was coming, the bodies of the remaining three people had already turned into charcoal, and it was impossible to tell who was who.
Even if they didn't experience the scene personally, seeing this tragic situation still makes everyone feel scared.
Especially the farmer who reported the news at that time was still mumbling to himself: "Fortunately there was no thunder when I reported the news. What would my mother and children do if this happened to me?"
"Yes, Lao Li, you are so lucky. This is considered a disaster."
"If one survives, there will be future fortunes."
Manager Zhang was still immersed in the sad atmosphere of Master Hua's tragic death. When he heard the farmers' conversations, he suddenly realized a serious problem.
If Lao Li hadn't come to report that Long Wei, who was delivering a message from Princess Xian's mansion, was trapped halfway, Master Hua wouldn't have gone out in a hurry in the rain.
That way you won't be struck by lightning when passing by this forest!
Thinking of this, Manager Zhang shuddered and stared at Old Li with a look of suspicion in his eyes.
"Old Li..."
Manager Zhang was about to call someone over to take control when suddenly there was a violent sound of horse hooves.
In the dark night.
A group of cavalry holding torches were advancing towards the imperial village.
Manager Zhang was startled and when he squinted to see who it was, the leader stopped outside the woods.
"Where is the manager of Huangzhuang? I am Princess Xian, and I came here with Lord Huangshang Ning to check on the death of Master Hua!"
Princess Xian is here!
Manager Zhang felt a huge stone falling to the ground and hurried forward to greet him.
"The younger one is the steward of Huangzhuang. His surname is Zhang. Master Hua's body is over here. Princess Xian and Master Ning are here to invite you."
Manager Zhang looked at the other person who got off his horse.
The boy, who was sixteen or seventeen years old, was not as handsome as the rumors said, but his eyes were so sharp that people dare not look directly at him.
Even though it was the first time they met, Manager Zhang could still see the anger and depression in Master Ning's heart at a glance. He thought that Master Hua always mentioned the name "Wu Hao" before his death, his eyes turned red, and he couldn't help but say more. A few words.
"Master Ning, Master Hua always talked about you when he was alive, but he was afraid of disturbing you, and he was also busy, so he didn't go to Princess Xian's Mansion. Today I heard that you made the colored glaze, so I waited. When I went to Princess Xian's mansion, who would have thought that something like this would happen on the way."
Ning Wuyang originally thought about asking the insider about what happened before and after the incident.
Unexpectedly, Butler Zhang was this person.
He followed the footsteps of Manager Zhang and came to the shallow pit where Hua Yi lay.
The nearby weeds have been browned by lightning, and there is still a burning smell. If you smell carefully, you can even smell the smell of barbecue.
Ning Wuyan couldn't imagine how painful it was to be struck by lightning.
He glanced at the corpse covered with a coat, and thinking of Jiang Shu's last words, he still reached out with trembling hands, uncovered a corner of the coat, revealing Master Hua's blurred face, and solemnly promised.
"Master Hua, don't worry. I will do my best to purify the artemisia annua juice. You can go with peace of mind."
Ning Wuyan stared at Master Hua's face for a few times, and after imprinting his final appearance deeply in his mind, he put on his coat.
Taking a deep breath and regaining his composure, he asked Manager Zhang, who was wiping his eyes next to him: "Can you please tell me what happened before and after Master Hua left Huangzhuang?"
"Yes... I just have a question that I would like to ask Princess Xian and Lord Ning to answer."
Manager Zhang pointed at Lao Li.
"The reason why the Chinese division came out in the rain was because they heard that Long Wei, who was delivering a letter for Lord Ning from Princess Xian's Mansion, was stranded on the way. He was worried that the letter you sent, Lord Ning, contained confidential matters, so he took the risk in a carriage. The rain rushed out.”
Sure enough, China Normal University did not go out in the rain for no reason!
Ning Wuyang controlled the excitement in his heart and stood up directly.
Seeing this, Zhou Jingxian took the lead and rushed in front of the still confused Lao Li. She grabbed him by the collar and dragged him to Hua Yi's body.
"Manager Zhang, is he Lao Li?"
"Yes, the princess, that's him!"
After Manager Zhang confirmed, Zhou Jingxian took a look at the items on Lao Li's body and confirmed that there were no dangerous weapons before releasing him.
Lao Li was so frightened that he fell to the ground, explaining helplessly and in panic: "Princess Xian, Master Ning, it wasn't me who hurt Master Hua, and I didn't know those thunders would hit the woods at that time. , I just went after hearing someone asked me to report the news."
"Who is that other person?"
Ning Wuyang asked in a deep voice.
Lao Li just wanted to answer, but hesitated. He frowned and thought for a moment, and replied in horror: "I don't know that person, but he said that Long Wei who was delivering the letter was blocked on the road. This thing should be Really?"
"Yes, but I didn't have a dispute with anyone else. I also asked the Jingwei Army to detain the caravan first, but I don't think they have a problem. Even if there is a problem, it should be a problem with the Beidi caravan before them. .”
Jiang Shu had already finished delivering the letter and caught up with him. After hearing what Lao Li said, an idea was taking shape in his mind.
Lightning strikes aside, this is an obvious conspiracy.
Someone deliberately delayed time to stop him outside the Imperial Manor, and then used Lao Li to deliver a message to Master Hua. In the end, Master Hua was struck by lightning.
But.
The most crucial point in this conspiracy is.
Is there really anyone in the world who can control when and where thunder strikes?
Jiang Shu couldn't understand that such a big matter couldn't be talked about without any conclusion.
Zhou Jingxian is a straight person, and she also wants to understand that this is a trick deliberately targeted at Master Hua. What she also doesn't understand is: "Mr. Ning, can anyone really predict in advance where these thunders will strike?" , did you deliberately lead Master Hua into this forest after calculating the right time?"
"There are rules to follow in deducing when it will rain in advance. If someone can accurately calculate when thunder will happen and where the thunder will hit, I would really like to meet this man of God."
Ning Wuyang sneered and looked around at the scorched earth.
