Chapter 724 The Missing Jewelry Box (1/2)
Yun Shang's heart skipped a beat and she hurried into the mansion. But the court dress she wore was so complicated that she was almost tripped over by it. Regardless of the presence of Xia Huanyu and the others, Yun Shang lifted her dress and ran into the mansion in a hurry.
The whole mansion was filled with a dead silence. From the gate to the inside, through garden house, to the long corridor by the lake, there were some servants' corpses scattered. Yun Shang's eyes swept across the dead bodies and walked faster and faster.
”Slow down, Your Highness. Be careful.” Seeing this, Qin Yi and Qian Zhuo were also in a panic, but when they saw Yun Shang running desperately, they were also shocked. Qian Yin hurriedly used Qinggong to catch up with Yun Shang and grabbed her arm.
”Creak...” A strange voice came from afar, which was particularly clear in the silent Prince Rui's mansion. Yun Shang halted and looked up in the direction of the sound.
Boom... An even louder sound was heard. With light of the moon the lanterns along the corridor, Yun Shang saw a yard in the distance collapse with a loud bang.
That is.. The yard where she and Luo Qingyan lived.
Yun Shang fixed her eyes on the yard, and her eyes lit up in the night.
Xia Huanyu, who followed in, and a group of Ministers behind him had caught up. Seeing that Yun Shang stood still, they hurried forward. Xia Huanyu glanced at Yun Shang and asked, ”What's wrong?”
Yun Shang didn't say anything, but Qin Yi said softly, ”Just now, we saw the courtyard where Her Highness and His Highness live collapsed.”
A hint of gloom flashed through Xia Huanyu's eyes. He waved to the guards and ordered, ”Take someone to check.”
The imperial guards quickly ran towards the direction pointed by Qin Yi. Standing in front of Yun Shang, Xia Huanyu turned to her and asked, ”Is Prince Rui in the yard?”
Yun Shang's voice trembled uncontrollably. ”Yes, His Highness has been resting in that yard since he was poisoned.”
Hearing this, Xia Huanyu nodded slightly and walked towards the courtyard.
It was not until all the ministers who came with Xia Huanyu passed by Yun Shang that she looked up at Qin Yi and said, ”Qin Yi, help me. My legs are too weak to make a move.” Her voice was neither loud nor low, but Xia Huanyu who was walking in the front, could hear it faintly.
Qin Yi was stunned. She didn't expect that Yun Shang stood still for this reason. She quickly stepped up to Yun Shang and held her. Yun Shang slowly turned around and sat down by the corridor.
After everyone walked towards the yard, Yun Shang slowly lowered her head, moved her feet a little, bent down and picked up something from the ground.
