Chapter 948: Detective Words
"What kind of material was the paperweight that was placed on the bookcase at that time? I remember that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that the secret letter was returned by His Royal Highness to the county lord's bookcase. Your Highness probably didn't notice the paperweight on it, did you?" the little man looked at the prince defiantly!"It's made of Sassanid glassware!" the prince replied fluently. To show that everything must be seen with his own eyes.
As soon as the crown prince finished answering this sentence, the little man had already turned to face the emperor, and said with a smug look on his face, "The villain has already learned from the conversation with His Royal Highness the crown prince just now, when the forbidden army of the palace rushed to the East Palace earlier, where did the prince go during the time he was closed, and who did he meet!"
Everyone present was shocked to hear this little man's new statement, because everyone had listened to all his questions about the prince just now, and there was no mention of the fact that the prince had disappeared for a period of time when the forbidden army was besieging the East Palace earlier.
"As far as the villain knows, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rushed to see the eldest princess at that critical moment. The speed at which the little man said this was not fast, but the weight in it was like a thunderbolt.
This is simply a chilling speculation, because it suddenly involves Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess, who is not mentioned by anyone in the whole conversation. It must be said that it is a bit far-fetched and mysterious.
The emperor's reaction was as calm as ever, but he bowed slightly and asked, "What is Aiqing's reason?"
"As Your Majesty and all the adults present can see, the villain has been verbose with a lot of useless things in front of him in order to ask the last and most important question. And doing that is just to confuse His Royal Highness the Prince's audio-visual appearance, although the intention can be regarded as ugly, but the harvest is real. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thought that all my intentions were to draw out the true and false disputes between him and the Nine Emperor Princes, but I ignored that what I really wanted to know was the whereabouts of the Crown Prince in his absence for nearly two quarters of an hour. And to ask the real answer to these questions, it is also necessary to preconceive that it is an inconsequential matter when the prince is subconsciously defenseless. For example, the handwritten letter of the county lord of Qushu that has been destroyed, the paper and ink incense, and the paperweight material. In fact, the villain had seen Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess as early as when the sun had not set today, so he had seen the layout of Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess's study today. And the meeting between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess must also be in the study. And the time interval is close enough to what it is now. Therefore, when the villain asked about the layout of the study of the lord of Qushu County for a long time, the prince naturally thought of the layout of the eldest princess's study and answered it very smoothly. Of course, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it can be said that this is just an accident, but the villain has carefully searched Xixuan before, and the county lord of Qushu does not have a paperweight of Sassanid glassware. Such a rare treasure, the owner known to the villain, there is only one person in the whole emperor, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess. Because although Sasanian glassware varieties abound in the imperial capital, the paperweights made of such utensils are unique!
After the little man finished speaking, he bowed his head to the emperor and waited for the emperor's further instructions.
The emperor nodded at him with satisfaction. It was a wonderful question. The most important thing is to achieve exactly what he wanted. Success led to the person the prince was trying to rely on. In fact, the emperor could have thought that it might be the eldest princess early on, but he really couldn't get the real evidence.
Xinli looked at the emperor incomprehensibly, "According to what the emperor and the crown prince said, it is a consensus that all parties can reach if the prince and the eldest princess are not on good terms. But at this most critical moment, how could the crown prince still think of asking for help from the eldest princess?"
The emperor was amused by Xinli's confusion, "Because he has always known what her eldest aunt needs most! Sometimes, in the face of earthly changes, they see more clearly. ”
Xinli didn't understand even more, "Celestial Princess, how can there be such a thing if you can't ask for it?"
"I can't get it and I've lost it! My royal sister has always liked these things. Actually, I only know a general idea. And judging from the current situation, the prince really understands these things better than me. ”
The queen, who had been lying down smoothly, suddenly sat up again, and said to the empty bed tent, "You just said that the eldest princess sent someone to see me?"
The palace maid who was guarding the night under the bed immediately got up and responded, "The slave maid has already refused according to what the mother said." "See!" the queen changed her mind.
"But they may already go back and pass the word!"
"If it's really important, they'll keep waiting!" said the queen, picking up the quilt and getting out of bed.
The palace maid on night had no choice but to hold the lamp, and then went out to summon people to come in to serve, and then went outside to order people to find those messengers who didn't know if the eldest princess had returned.
The eyes of the palace maid who went out to find someone just fell on the shadow under a lantern, and immediately there was a dexterous figure who greeted her, "The slave maid is the person who just came to deliver the letter." ”
The queen's palace maid was slightly stunned, and immediately agreed to meet the eldest princess according to the queen's words.
The woman who had come to report did not seem to doubt that the queen would make such a change, but after a light salute, she turned and disappeared into the darkness!
Tonight's palace has never been locked, it is a special order of the emperor. Celestia took advantage of this convenience. It all happened to be like a conspiracy that had been laid out for a long time.
The queen has always been a focused person, even in such a dark night, when she meets the eldest princess, she is also dressed in a headdress, and everything is fine.
The eldest princess is here, and she refuses to fall behind.
When the two looked at each other and smiled, their eyes also implied appreciation for each other, but then they didn't fight as usual, and the eldest princess had already gone straight to the topic after saluting, "I'm afraid the imperial sister-in-law is still in the dark, and something very bad happened to His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
The eldest princess's words were abrupt, and the queen didn't know how to react for a while, and then there was a silence, she should have fallen into some kind of trade-off, in her opinion, the eldest princess was not the one who could save their mother and son from fire and water. But for some reason, today, she has been hostile to these two for too long, and she didn't find a single trick in the eyes of her opponents, but this obviously made her even more worried, "Your Highness, what do you mean by this." ”
"The little man who is now interrogating His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, is the imperial brother, and he is secretly using a sharp sword, and when it comes to the identity of this person, it is the most surprising thing, a death row prisoner in a prison. The senior Jiangyang thief has done countless traps and harmed many nobles in his past life. But none of the great families who have fallen in his favor have escaped his blackmail......"
