Chapter 383 Body Search

"Your Highness, but the thing he is carrying is very suspicious."

The Pei Protector said unconvinced. He was almost 100% sure that this thing was definitely not Su Chen's own thing, but something Su Chen had just taken out of the treasury.

And Su Chen was so evasive, it can be imagined that he definitely did not take it out openly, maybe he stole it.

However, just when Pei Protector was about to continue to attack Su Chen, the Prince of Anyang said: "That thing was given to Su Chen by this prince. Okay, there is no need to pursue this matter."

Is it given to Su Chen by the prince?

The Pei Protector was still suspicious, but since the Prince of Anyang had spoken, he could only give up.

Su Chen blinked and looked at the Prince of Anyang. He didn't mind telling the Prince of Anyang what happened in the treasury, but the key was that there were so many people and eyes now, it was not the time to talk.

Moreover, with so many strong people present, it was not convenient to use the martial arts of gathering sound into lines. You have to know that the real strong are very sharp-eyed and sharp-eared. In front of so many strong people in the late stage of the transformation realm, I, a person in the first level of the transformation realm, would be heard immediately if I used the martial arts of gathering sound into a line.

Therefore, Su Chen planned to wait until everyone had dispersed before talking to the Prince of Anyang alone.

The guardian Pei was standing aside, but he was unwilling to say: "Your Majesty, I think that every contestant coming out of the treasury should be searched to prevent them from taking the wrong reward or taking too much reward."

What the guardian Pei said was not completely unreasonable.

If everything was normal, the contestants should be searched when they left the treasury. Otherwise, who would know if you took too much or took rewards that should not belong to you?

Moreover, the guards of the palace would count the treasures in the treasury afterwards to ensure that no one would take advantage of it.

However, as most of the treasury was destroyed, it was obviously impossible to count the things inside.

So from this point of view, it was not wrong to search it. What if someone really took more? Any loss can be recovered.

However, at this time, the head of the Jin family suddenly said in a loud voice: "Forget it, forget it, the treasury is destroyed, and you are still entangled in these trivial things! If you have this spare time, you might as well investigate what happened in the treasury just now!"

"Master Jin, what do you mean by this? I just want to recover some losses for the palace." Pei Hufa said with his eyes wide open.

The head of the Jin family snorted coldly: "What you call recovering the loss is to stare at a child and question him constantly? Or to search these top talents in Anyang County? Pei Protector, forgive me for being blunt, it's already this time, even if you search all of them thoroughly, can you recover a little bit of the loss, and can it be equivalent to one ten-thousandth of the damage to the treasury?"

"You..."

Pei Protector was speechless by the head of the Jin family, and could only snort angrily, "Forget it, I won't argue with you, anyway, the treasury is not yours, you don't feel bad!"

The head of the Jin family snorted: "With your stingy style, it's really It's a disgrace to the palace!"

Pei was very angry, but in front of so many people, it was obviously not easy to quarrel with the head of the Jin family. He could only snort and said, "It's useless for you to quarrel with me here. Whether to search or not is up to the prince!"

"Okay!"

The Prince of Anyang waved his hand impatiently and said with a dull look, "There is no need to search. I will not treat these top talents of Anyang County as thieves."

"I just want to know what happened in the treasury now? Is there no one who can tell me?"

The Prince of Anyang asked in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, if it really doesn't work, we can only wait until Jin Linkai wakes up and ask him if he knows anything."

The head of the Jin family said.

At this time, after counting the number of people present, a subordinate reported: "Your Majesty, there are sixteen contestants who entered the treasury. In addition to the unconscious Jin Linkai, there is one less person. The Seventh Prince did not come out."

"Seventh Prince?"

Prince Anyang frowned subconsciously. If it was anyone else who did not come out, he would not feel strange. Only the Seventh Prince, with his sudden surge in cultivation and his strange and unpredictable methods, always made Prince Anyang feel a little strange.

So now that the Seventh Prince is missing, Prince Anyang almost immediately had an intuition that the destruction of the treasury must be related to the Seventh Prince.

"What? The Seventh Prince is missing?"

"No way, the prince is missing, this is a big deal."

Everyone was surprised and talked about it.

"Report to the prince, the Seventh Prince has been found!"

Several guards of the palace came out of the treasury, carrying a charred body.

Prince Anyang's pupils shrank slightly, and he stepped forward to check the body, opened his mouth to look at his teeth, closed his eyes, and nodded after a moment, saying, "It's the Seventh Prince."

All of a sudden, the people at the scene became agitated.

All eyes were cast at the body of the Seventh Prince in disbelief.

"My God, the Seventh Prince is dead, what happened in the treasure house?"

Everyone sighed. They thought they were just going into the treasury to get a reward, but it turned out to be such a mess, and someone even died.

Fortunately, the person who died was not the eldest prince who was the crown prince, and the crown prince had been decided, which meant that the seventh prince no longer had the possibility of becoming the crown prince.

Otherwise, it would have caused a big storm just like when the third prince died in the autumn hunting ground.

The eldest prince also looked at the body of the seventh prince in surprise, with regret and sadness in his eyes. Although he and the seventh prince were not very familiar with each other, and they didn't even say a few words throughout the year. But now seeing the seventh prince die suddenly, he still felt uncomfortable.

After all, he was a living person. He was fine before entering the treasury. How could he die?

The Prince of Anyang also looked at the body of the seventh prince with a serious expression. To be honest, he thought that the things in the treasury must be related to the seventh prince, and it was even possible that the seventh prince had done it.

But now the Seventh Prince is dead, which makes everything confusing.

"Have you found the cause of death?" asked the Prince of Anyang.

The guards shook their heads: "No, we just found the body of the Seventh Prince in a corner, and it was like this when we found it."

The Prince of Anyang pondered. One of the Seventh Prince's arms was cut off by Su Chen before, but looking at the body now, both arms were broken. How did the other arm break?

Apart from this, the Seventh Prince had no other external injuries, but it was obvious that just cutting off an arm would not kill a warrior, but the Seventh Prince died inexplicably.
