In the Daming Palace, the moonlight was like water and it was silent. Only the occasional wind blew through the treetops, bringing a bit of coolness. Di Renjie was wearing a green robe, standing in front of the palace gate with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance. Although there have been many rumors circulating in the palace since ancient times, especially in the shadows at night, people often heard ghosts moving around, but he never believed such rumors. As a judge obsessed with reasoning, all mysteries will be torn apart in the face of reason and evidence.
However, there was an unusual atmosphere in the palace tonight. Just as he was about to turn around and return to the inner court, suddenly, the guard at the palace gate ran over in a panic.
"Lord Di, Your Highness has something urgent and cannot tolerate a moment's delay."
"What's the matter?" Di Renjie raised his eyebrows and asked calmly.
"Someone... Someone was killed in the inner courtyard of the East Palace."
