Chapter 513: The Prince is Secret
Ao Baifeng picked up the pillow and handed it to Hua Lu, but Hua Lu spoke before him.
"Before I answer your question, you answer me two questions. ”
"Okay, you ask. Ao Baifeng agreed very simply.
Hua Lu took the pillow and put it under her chin and asked, "How do you know that I am a demon?
"I have been to the Dark Abyss, and I have seen a girl named Hua Yu, she looks very similar to you, and it is in the Dark Abyss that she cultivates to attract Xuan Gong. "Ao Baifeng is very frank and does not deliberately hide it.
"I see, you asked. ”
Ao Baifeng asked, "You once infiltrated the Quanyang Sect to inquire about the whereabouts of a person and get rid of that person, right?"
"How did you know about this?" Hua Lu's eyes widened, and she looked at Ao Baifeng in surprise and asked.
Ao Baifeng said: "My guess. ”
"Speculation? And on what basis?" Flower Dew looked curious.
Ao Baifeng said: "A letter, a letter that a friend quietly stuffed into my hand when I was about to go to the Chengtian Martial Arts Academy. ”
"When you say that, I'm curious to know what kind of letter it is. Flower Dew became more and more curious.
After a slight pause, Ao Baifeng slowed down his voice and said, "A letter about the prince's secret that few people know. ”
"The prince is secret?"
Hanaro took off the pillow that cushioned her chin and straightened her waist with an extremely serious expression.
Ao Baifeng said: "The letter said that more than ten years ago, the emperor suddenly had a strange illness, and even the imperial doctor in the palace was helpless, and the eldest prince at that time, that is, the crown prince left the palace with his entourage to seek medical advice in order to recover his father as soon as possible, and since then the former prince has never returned to the palace, and then the twelve princes became the princes." ”
"There's such a thing!" said Dew, who thought it was strange.
Ao Baifeng nodded, "At that time, the former prince traveled through most of the empire in order to find a famous doctor, and collected a lot of precious medicinal materials, but unfortunately he did not visit the famous doctor, and the former prince was worried about his seriously ill father, so he planned to return to the palace to visit first, and then come out to continue the search." ”
"Then why didn't he come back?" Blossom asked.
Ao Baifeng said: "On the way back to the palace, the former prince overheard a news that made him excited, there is a famous doctor who has been hidden for many years will go to the primeval forest to find rare herbs, the former prince immediately changed his itinerary after hearing it, did not return to the palace, but rushed to the primeval forest with a large number of collected medicinal materials day and night, but waiting for the former prince is not a famous doctor, but ......"
"What is it?" Flower Dew hurriedly asked.
Ao Baifeng replied: "A killing, specifically for the former prince's killing, when the former prince passed through Shili Town, he suddenly killed hundreds of black-clothed people from all directions, the former prince's twenty followers were killed in battle, the former prince was injured and fell to the ground, and at the last moment, a group of mysterious people suddenly appeared, rescued the former prince, and since then the former prince has evaporated from the world." ”
Hua Lu was a little puzzled, "In order to control and consolidate its status, the imperial family often appeases some powerful sects and gives a lot of financial and material support, and the royal family has three major martial arts academies, when there is no shortage of peerless masters, those powerful sects should also be in awe of the royal family, and the second- and third-rate sect forces are even more respectful of the royal family, who would be bold enough to attack the prince of the empire!"
"This is the purpose of my stay in the Prince's Mansion, entrusted by a friend to track down the mastermind behind the assassination of the former Prince. Ao Baifeng's voice was not loud, but it made people feel particularly firm and powerful when they heard it.
Dew asked, "Do you have eyebrows?"
Ao Baifeng smiled faintly, his smile was full of confidence. "It's not hard to find out who is behind it. According to the usual practice, the emperor will generally keep it secret when he has a strange disease, and the former prince will go out of the palace to find a famous doctor for the emperor, and naturally it will be done in secret, and ordinary people will not be able to know the news of the former prince's departure from the palace, so the whole thing must be done by people inside the royal family. ”
"After the assassination and disappearance of the former prince, my friend secretly visited and found that the news that a famous doctor went to the primeval forest was fake, obviously to lead the former prince to the primeval forest, and the person who revealed the false news must know the whereabouts of the former prince well, and this person must have a very good relationship with the former prince, and often exchanged letters. ”
"According to my friend's letter, there are four princes who have a good relationship with the former prince, namely the third prince, the sixth prince, the seventh prince and the twelfth prince. But in the process of the former prince's search for the name of a famous doctor, he only wrote to one of the princes to inquire about his father's illness, that is, the twelve princes. ”
"According to the royal ancestral system, the crown prince has always been in accordance with the order of the eldest and youngest, even if the former prince is missing, the second prince should be canonized as the crown prince next, and it will not be the turn of the current twelve princes. It can be seen that the Twelve Princes obtained the position of the crown prince by unusual means, so it is obvious that the mastermind behind the assassination of the former prince is the current Crown Prince Twelve Princes. ”
Hua Lu thought for a moment and said, "After your analysis, this matter is really the work of the Twelve Princes. But this matter has nothing to do with me at all, how can you guess that I infiltrated the Quanyang Sect just to inquire about someone?"
Ao Baifeng said: "If I guessed correctly, it should be the prince who asked you to find this person today, and instructed you to kill him on the spot once you find it." ”
"That's right. Hualu admitted very frankly, and at this moment, Hualu's mind suddenly brightened, and she captured something that shocked her, "You mean that the person I am looking for is the former prince!"
Ao Baifeng said: "Yes! When I met you in the Prince's Mansion, I guessed that you were sent by the current Prince to infiltrate the Quanyang Sect, but I didn't know the purpose of the Prince's sending you at that time, until I was put on death row and read the letter that my friend stuffed me, everything was clear." ”
The letter in the mouth of Aobai Feng was stuffed to him by the county guard of Hanyuan County when he said goodbye to him, and the county guard was one of the people who saved the former prince back then.
When Ao Baifeng saw the content of the letter for the first time, he was shocked, he had been in Quanyang Sect for a long time, he had never heard of Quanyang Sect hiding the former crown prince of the empire, even if he was promoted to the position of head, no one had mentioned it to him.
At first, Ao Baifeng was a little skeptical about the content of the letter, but after some careful analysis, he confirmed that what the letter said was true.
When Ao Baifeng once treated the county guard's wife, he prescribed a prescription, some of which were not easy to collect in Hanyuan County, but the county guard collected them without much effort, as if the county guard had a large medicine storehouse, and Ao Baifeng couldn't figure it out at that time.
After reading Xinao Bai Feng this time, I figured out that the medicinal materials taken by the county guard were collected by the former prince when he was looking for a famous doctor. It was on this basis that Ao Baifeng was sure that what the letter said was true.
