"There's something going on here!"

A low voice came into Sun Cheng's ears from the east.

Sun Cheng's eyes twitched and he quickly looked over.

They are the Jin Yiwei Tiqi who are responsible for reconnaissance in the east.

Sun Li immediately took Qian Huguan and took a few steps back toward the bank, then slinked toward the east.

After passing through a bush and seeing the scene clearly, Sun Cheng and Qian Huguan's eyes couldn't help but shrink violently.

I saw a corpse wet by the river water lying on the grass among the bushes.

Two Jinyi guards were rummaging through the corpse.

"They are Japanese."

A Jin Yiwei raised his head and took off the black clothes on the body, revealing the clothes underneath.

It is clearly a Japanese costume.

And on this man's waist, there are two knives, one long and one short.

This is also a common equipment worn by Japanese warriors.

The corpse of the Japanese!

Still here on the north bank of the Qinhuai River near the Temple of Mountains and Rivers, the Temple of Heaven!

Sun Cheng's eyes narrowed silently.

Qianhuguan was full of surprise: "Why are there Japanese corpses here?"

He walked up to the body and used the embroidered spring knife in his hand to take off the clothes and lay them on the ground.

Officer Qianhu looked at the corpse carefully.

"There are no wounds on the front, turn it over and take a look."

The Jin Yiwei who was squatting aside immediately turned the body over.

And he also took off all the black clothes from the corpse.

"Still no wounds!"

Qian Huguan's eyes narrowed and his eyes became a little cold.

The Jin Yiwei who was squatting next to the corpse turned the corpse over again, face up.

Jin Yiwei began to open the mouth of the corpse and dug into the mouth with a stick.

"There are no foreign objects. It doesn't look like he drowned."

It was not homicide, and there was no sign of drowning!

Qian Huguan's eyes were in a trance, and he turned back to look at Sun Cheng, who was silent and frowning.

Sun Cheng squinted and pondered for a long time, then said in a low voice: "Look at the limbs and neck. If there are no injuries, take off all the clothes."

Two knights in royal robes immediately obeyed the order.

Start looking at the limbs and neck position of the corpse.

There are no abnormalities in the limbs.

There were no marks on the neck.

The two Jinyi guards took a breath and then began to take off the clothes from the corpse one by one.

Although the body was soaked in river water, it was not white or swollen.

This shows that the body was not dragged from the water to the shore.

Two Jinyi guards searched the corpses one by one.

Suddenly, a guard in Jinyi made a sound, frowned, and pressed his finger on the heart of the corpse.

Then under a few pairs of eyes.

I saw a drop of blood oozing from the heart of the corpse.

"Is it the eye of a needle?"

Jin Yiwei, who was holding his heart, muttered, and then pressed down harder with his hand.

Drops of blood began to seep out from the heart.

Then Jin Yiwei put both hands on his heart.

The drops of blood began to form a small stream of blood.

"Zhenfu?"

Qian Huguan's tone changed somewhat.

Sun Cheng stepped forward lightly, his brows furrowed and his face frosty.

Official Qianhu gave up his position: "My subordinates really can't understand now why there is a Japanese corpse here?"

Sun Cheng whispered: "Kill him?"

Qian Huguan glanced at the spot where blood was oozing from his heart and shook his head: "I'm not sure, it's hard to say. But this position cannot be done by myself."

Sun Cheng hummed and then fell into thinking.

Official Qianhu was not sure whether the Japanese was killed by him, but he said that the needle hole in his heart could not have been made by himself.

That is to say, it is also possible that this Japanese man took the initiative to let others attack him before he was alive.

Or, was asked to do so.

Things suddenly became wrong and complicated again.

"But now we are sure of one thing!"

After Sun Cheng spoke for a while, he spoke with a faint look in his eyes.

Official Qianhu nodded: "The Japanese are indeed around here."

But where are the Japanese hiding?

Qian Huguan raised his head and looked at the lights on the shore.

Under the forest on the shore, shadows are dancing.

Sun Cheng stood up, glanced at the corpse on the ground, frowned a little and said: "Hide it up! You take people to the Shanchuan Altar and the Temple of Heaven, and let the imperial guards there check it out. Take a look at the Shanchuan Altar and the Temple of Heaven.

Is there anything hidden in the Temple of Heaven?"

He did not dare to say whether it was possible that the Shanchuan Altar and the Temple of Heaven were hidden by the Japanese with a large amount of gunpowder, waiting for the abdication ceremony to begin and ignite them, blowing up the entire Ming Dynasty into the sky.

But Qian Huguan understood the meaning.

Nod and take orders.

Qian Huguan looked at Sun Cheng again: "Then I will comfort you..."

"The rest of you will join me and hide as well."

Sun Cheng squinted his eyes, making it unclear what he was thinking.

Qian Huguan thought for a while, but couldn't think of any better way now.

Unless the court is asked to tentatively schedule the abdication ceremony for a few hours later.

But such a request is definitely impossible to obtain.

Not to mention that this was a date set by the emperor himself, with theoretical support from Qin Tian Jian.

It is said that once the abdication ceremony is suspended or postponed, countless rumors and rumors may arise in the court and among the people.

Some people may even think that this is because the imperial court sensed that God might not agree with this abdication, so the imperial court had to suspend the abdication ceremony.

At that time, the prince will be in a dilemma.

So no matter what.

Even if the sky is about to fall in a few hours, the abdication ceremony must be held as scheduled.

Qian Huguan took a deep breath, and for a moment he felt as if his shoulders were as heavy as a ton of stone.

He led the people and quickly disappeared by the river bank.
