Chapter 428: Facts
Qin Hanzhen looked at Zhao Mo with wide eyes, only to feel incredulous: "It's really fake?Shanyang King?!How is it possible?!"
Zhao Mo finished eating a spring cake in two bites, and nodded thoughtfully: "I was stunned at the time! I never imagined how he came out? and suddenly knocked my trap box to the ground." I originally thought that it was the prince of Shu who did it, but where did I think that it would be the king of Shanyang?!"
Qin Hanzhen only felt a mess in his mind: "No...... Although it is said that after the leader of the Beirong secret spy fled to Tongzhou, he once passed by the Zhuangzi of the Shanyang Palace, but ...... Wasn't that just passing by? Yuan Tongzhi led people to search the Zhuangzi, but they didn't find anything unusual? Finally, he found the body of the leader of the Beirong secret spy on the Zhuangzi where the princess of Shu was in the room. This Zhuangzi should actually be owned by the prince of Shu. No matter how you look at it, there's no reason to have anything to do with King Sanyang, right?"
But if it wasn't related to him, what would happen to his performance in Zhao Mo's study?
Qin Han was a little confused: "Could it be that they are accomplices?" or ...... The prince of Shu took the king of Shanyang and asked him to make a shield for himself?"
Zhao Mo raised his eyebrows: "Why did my cousin say this? King Shanyang is not a fool, how could he make such a shield for the prince of Shu? Whether it is Xiao Xiang's position as the heir, framing me, the king of the clan, or colluding with the Beirong people, it is a big crime!"
Qin Hanzhen thought for a while: "It's hard to say, after all, the truth of the matter is not known to everyone, and even the people of the Imperial City's Secret Spy Division are chasing down the Beirong people, only a few people know, isn't it?" I think if the King of Shanyang is completely unaware, the Prince of Shu will find some reason to coax him, let him take the initiative to rush to you with the prince, and then break your trap box...... It's not impossible. ”
Qin Hanzhen hesitated for a moment, and then asked Zhao Mo: "You can see clearly, was it really the King of Shanyang who deliberately wanted to fall that box at that time? Did he almost fall at that time? Did he trip over someone, or did he fall very fakely, as if he was acting?"
Zhao Mo blinked: "No, he fell so hard that he almost hit Duobaoge in my study." If it weren't for his quick hand, his head might have broken and bleeding. He stumbled to the shelf, and there was a red mark on his forehead, which took a while to fade. It was precisely because he was in a hurry to help Duobaoge stand firm that he pushed the trap box out hard, otherwise he would at most knock the box back and lean back, and it would be impossible to knock the box out entirely. I have a lot of materials, even if he is fat, he can't easily knock him down. ”
Qin Hanzhen was so funny to hear it, imagining that scene, he could guess how embarrassed the King of Shanyang was. It seems to be true, but the fact that he happened to hit the box is a bit of a problem. Qin Hanzhen asked Zhao Mo: "What was the prince of Shu doing at that time? How far was he from the king of Shanyang? Is there anyone else around the king of Shanyang?
Zhao Mo showed a big smile, but he smiled without saying a word.
Qin Hanzhen knew that there was a problem here, and hurriedly pulled his sleeve and urged: "Don't keep selling Guanzi, say it quickly!"
Zhao Mo smiled: "I really didn't see it at the time." The prince of Shu suddenly praised the "Temple Fair Map" you painted, thinking that I painted it, but I was not happy to ask someone like him to comment on my cousin's painting. The king of Shanyang suddenly echoed and praised the painting. I thought to myself what he knew? Without a word of praise, he praised me, and the praise was so blunt that I was embarrassed to hear it, but I felt that he was really thick-skinned. I turned my head and saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince probably also thought that King Shanyang's words were not pleasing to my ears, so I turned my head to look at the other calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and I both turned our heads to look at him after hearing the sound of King Shanyang colliding with him. I don't know how the King of Shanyang fell, but the prince of Shu was standing next to him at the time, almost next to him. It's just that after he fell, he stayed away from the prince of Shu. Not only because of his fall, but the prince of Shu himself seemed to have taken two steps back, but he didn't know if he was scared by him or did it on purpose. ”
Zhao Mo himself didn't see the situation at that time, but he wasn't in a hurry. Because it happened in his study, in his territory, in what he didn't see, and what others could see.
Ah Shou was standing by the door and listening to the instructions, and Ah Xing was standing by the wall and was in charge of cooking tea. These two people are Zhao Mo's henchmen, more reliable than the maid or something, and they did not retreat.
When the king of Shanyang wrestled, Ah Xing stood in the corner of the room, and he didn't see how he fell, but he saw the prince of Shu moving under his feet, stretching out one foot, but he quickly took it back. The robe worn by the prince of Shu today has a long hem and is relatively loose, which can easily cover the small movements on the legs. But who called Ah Xing to have the right angle of sight at that time?
In addition, there is Ah Shou, when sending off guests, the prince of Shu stayed and talked to Zhao Mo for a while, and it was Ah Shou who sent King Shanyang away. Afterwards, Ah Shou reported to Zhao Mo, saying that the king of Shanyang quietly stuffed him with a purse containing five taels of gold, begged him to help intercede, and asked him to explain to Zhao Mo on his behalf, saying that the fall he fell at that time was tripped by the prince of Shu......
Qin Hanzhen glared at Zhao Mo: "Then why didn't you say it before?!"
Zhao Mo said with a smile: "Didn't I finish talking about one thing to another? The things that Ashou Axing saw and heard were all things I heard from them afterwards. When I saw the King of Sanyo suddenly jump out, I was really surprised. ”
Qin Hanzhen glanced at him angrily, and returned to the topic.
With the testimony of Ah Shou and Ah Xing, the nature of the matter is different. It is very likely that the King of Shanyang is really just a shield and was used by the prince of Shu. Although he seems to be stupid to become a backstabber, judging from what he said to Ah Shou in private, he doesn't seem to be stupid......
Qin Hanzhen said: "The prince of Shu will think of using the king of Shanyang to carry the blame, I think it may have something to do with the fact that the Zhuangzi of the Shanyang Palace's mansion is close to his Zhuangzi." Otherwise, under normal circumstances, who would think that the king of Shanyang is the culprit? He only has one son, after all, the prince of Shu also has only one son, but he does not necessarily have no ambition, just from his situation in the capital for more than 30 years, he knows that he has nothing to do with the word power. When he was at his most beautiful, that is, the year when the King of Shu took his youngest son to the north, right? How long has it been? Even people in Beirong will not believe that he is a powerful nobleman, let alone a secret spy who has been lurking in Dazhao for many years. However, the prince of Shu himself, who still often goes in and out of the palace, and is related to the queen mother, sounds more like that kind of person. ”
Zhao Mo tapped his finger on the table: "What is not clear now is how did he find out that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and I had detected the truth, and set up a trap to test it in turn? If he hadn't found out that it was a trap, he wouldn't have designed to let the King of Shanyang block the arrow for him." ”
Qin Hanzhen thought for a while: "Is it because when the Beirong secret spy escaped, he gave him the news?"
Zhao Mo looked at her: "Yuan Tongzhi chased very closely, and the two Beirong secret spies, one dead and one seriously injured, never left their sight until they fell into the hands of the secret spy department, and the only one who could leak the secret was the leader of the Beirong secret spy who had been lost." ”
And the leader of the Beirong secret spy was lost near the Zhuangzi of the king of Shanyang and the prince of Shu, Yuan Tongzhi quickly tracked him down, and ordered people to block the local area, until the target was confirmed to be dead, and then relaxed the surveillance, but still did not let any outsiders enter. If anyone during this period had exchanged information with the leader of the Beirong secret spies before his death, it must have been one of the people who were in the two Zhuangzi at that time.
Zhao Mo also told Qin Hanzhen one thing: "The family where the leader of the Beirong secret spy is hiding was placed under house arrest by Dali Temple because of the involvement in the case, and he was not allowed to go out. But the daughter-in-law kept complaining, saying that although she bought rat poison and always shouted that she wanted to poison the little uncles, she was actually just scaring people, and she didn't dare to really do it. She stayed with the concubines that night because she was afraid, and she didn't make the poisoned food, it was already prepared and put in the kitchen, and anyone could approach it, but she never touched it. And the fact that she bought rat poison is known to many people in the family. Even the wives of the two dead brothers could not believe that she could do such a thing. ”
Qin Han was really puzzled: "This case is related to the death of the leader of the secret spies in Beirong...... What does it matter?"
Zhao Mo said: "On the night that man died, the person in charge of the vigil was one of the dead sons, the youngest among the brothers. And......," he paused, "the leader of the Beirong secret spy was suffocated in a coffin, and when he was examined, he was found to have a bag of dry food with a very heavy sweat medicine in it. Some of the dry food seems to have been eaten, and it is produced in the same village, and the method is also unique to the locality, which is somewhat different from other places. ”
What does this mean...... In that village, someone stuffed him with dry food, but put medicine in the dry food? But why is it sweat medicine?
Qin Hanzhen was surprised to think of a possibility: "That person shouldn't feel ...... The leader of the Beirong secret spy will pass out after taking the medicine, and then he will nail the coffin to death, and he will be able to suffocate people in the coffin, right? But even if the coffin is not nailed, it is also very tightly covered, and it will suffocate people to death? Of course, if the leader of the Beirong secret spy is drugged and does not have the strength to lift the lid of the coffin, he will definitely die faster. So here comes the question again...... Who is this man who drugged the dry food? Is he friend or foe with the leader of the Beirong secret spies, or is he an enemy pretending to be an ally?"
Zhao Mo smiled slightly: "I got the news from Yuan Tongzhi early this morning, saying that there is indeed a newcomer from the Zhuangzi who has settled down, and it has only been half a year to settle down there, and he speaks with a Shu accent, which is very good with the dead youngest son of the mourner on weekdays." But after the death of the youngest son, the man did not even offer incense, but waited for the magistrate to lift the blockade, and then left in a hurry, saying that he was going to work in the city. Yuan Tongzhi is ordering someone to find out where this person is doing things in the city, maybe it has something to do with the prince of Shu. ”
Qin Hanzhen "tsked" twice: "The prince of Shu is really ruthless, and his allies also say that they will kill them, and they will lose them when they are used up." I don't believe it, he really formed an alliance with the Beijung, maybe it's just a use. ”
Zhao Mo was about to speak, but when he heard Ah Xing's serious face, he hurriedly reported: "Lord Jun, something happened!" Zhao Mo was shocked: "What's wrong?" Qin Hanzhen also hurriedly sat up straight and listened carefully.
"King Sanyo is dead!"
Zhao Mo was taken aback and looked at Qin Hanzhen.
