The second prince didn't say a word, and followed to hunt down the murderer. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The only ones who remained by the emperor's side were the three Jinyi guards and Gonggong Liu.

The clever emperor also instantly understood what had happened before, and while secretly rejoicing, he felt a chill rise from his spine, making him almost unsteady on his feet.

Someone wanted his life.

Previously, he had also heard about the assassination of the first emperor. Now, this kind of thing really happened to him, which made him angry and panicked for a while, and his face became more solemn than ever.

He immediately asked the three brocade guards to inspect the ground.

"Don't miss a hair. The emperor said.

The three of them were immediately given orders.

Gonggong Liu helped the emperor to sit down on the wooden bench.

"How did you notice that?" asked the young monarch, who had regained his composure.

Gonggong Liu hurriedly knelt down and said, "Back to Your Majesty, it is a very strong feeling for a moment. ”

The emperor quietly looked at Gonggong Liu, who was kneeling in front of him, pondering his answer and observing his expression.

Soon, he had the bottom in his heart - Gonggong Liu did not lie, and he was not a person who knew in advance.

The emperor closed his eyes.

It was not an easy task to find the needle in the grassy grass, which was almost invisible to the naked eye, so the three brocade guards searched for a long time but could not find it, and finally the whole person almost fell to the ground.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Jin Yiwei and the second prince came out of the woods.

"Back to Your Majesty, I didn't catch anyone. The head of the brocade guard stepped forward to report.

The emperor was silent, and secretly clenched his fists.

The second prince also knelt down and said, "I never thought that there would be such a dangerous character here. As soon as he thought that the minister took the initiative to invite His Majesty to come today, the minister felt that he was deeply guilty and asked His Majesty to surrender his sin. ”

With that, he lowered his head deeply.

The emperor looked at him with half-squinted eyes, only the back of his head and neck, and said, "Raise your head." ”

The second prince, Li Ji, slowly raised his head at this time.

Immediately, he met the emperor's eyes.

The Emperor's eyes looked at him calmly and alertly, like a leopard with a keen sense of smell.

The second prince suddenly panicked, but on the surface he still pretended to be calm, and was slightly innocent and curious.

After a long time, the emperor took his eyes off his face and said expressionlessly, "Second brother, get up." ”

The second prince hurriedly thanked him, and then stood up.

The other brocade guards also joined the search for the poison needle.

But a group of people searched for nearly an hour but did not find the poison needle.

The emperor did not believe it, so he ordered everyone to uproot all the grass in this meadow and then look for it inch by inch.

In the process of pulling weeds, one of the brocade guards found the poison needle, but he quietly threw it into the small lake next to it.

Seeing that the sun was almost in the west, there was still nothing to be gained.

The second prince said, "Your Majesty, could this be just a hallucination of Gonggong Liu?" and turned his head and asked Gonggong Liu: "Do you see someone?

Naturally, Grandpa Liu didn't see these two things, so he had to emphasize that it was a very strong intuition.

"Intuition is sometimes wrong, Gonggong Liu, otherwise how can we explain why we can't find any evidence after looking for so long?" said the second prince again.

Gonggong Liu didn't know how to answer, so he shut up.

The Emperor had everyone present searched, but nothing suspicious was found. The Emperor looked at the small pond and looked thoughtfully.

But he didn't let anyone go to the pond to look for it, but after a moment he got up and walked to the gate of the training ground.

The group also hurried to follow.

When he arrived at the palace, the emperor immediately returned to the Yinghua Palace. After sitting down in the Yinghua Palace, he beckoned Gonggong Liu to come closer.

Gonggong Liu hurriedly stepped forward.

"Did you pay attention to the twelve brocade guards beside me when I was practicing shooting?" the Emperor asked softly.

Father-in-law Liu hurriedly replied truthfully: "I occasionally glanced at it, but I didn't think there was anything wrong." Then he hurriedly asked: "Your Majesty thinks they ......?"

"Don't be careless. The emperor said, and immediately ordered the twelve brocade guards to be handed over to Dali Temple for questioning.

Subsequently, the emperor added ten more personal guards for himself, and quietly sent two palace maids to keep an eye on the movements of the second prince and Concubine Meng.

When he was done with these things, the emperor began to review the recitals.

Everything seems to be back to business as usual.

Gonggong Liu stood on the side and looked at him silently, and his heart couldn't help but fluctuate under his calm appearance.

After learning that the death of the emperor was related to the two fathers-in-law, he was very grateful that Jinshang could still treat his personal father-in-law so seriously, and he thought that someone had killed him within a few months of ascending the throne, and he was very worried about Jinshang's safety.

When the emperor was resting halfway, Gonggong Liu hurriedly stepped forward to pour tea and said softly: "Your Majesty, do you want to tell the Empress Dowager about this?"

"Not necessarily. ”

"Your Majesty...... The second prince ...... there, "Gonggong Liu wanted to speak and stopped.

Say. The emperor encouraged him and said.

"Today's events, the minion always feels a little strange. The day after tomorrow is the day of the dissection of the emperor, and you are suddenly assassinated at this critical juncture......"

"I understand what you're trying to say. The Emperor said, "I will keep an eye on it." ”

..............

Shangguan Che rushed to the Jiang Mansion in the night, and when he entered the door, he was told that Old Madam Tao was waiting for him in the living room.

He hurried to the living room.

"Has Your Majesty agreed to let Yueting go?" asked Old Madam Tao with a smile.

"Yes, the juniors will be by his side at that time, and the old lady doesn't have to worry. ”

Old Madam Tao nodded, then took out a letter from her pocket and said, "This is Gu Bainiang's reply to me, take a look." ”

Shangguan Che hurriedly took it.

Gu Bainiang wrote in the letter: At my age, it doesn't matter to me whether I can get out of the mountain or not, but as you said, the 'Sun Moon Meteor Knife' has its mission, so I made a decision after repeated considerations - to take my disciples down the mountain. However, I don't plan to stay in the rivers and lakes for too long, I plan to return to Meteor Village after getting acquainted with them. As for the specific date of going out of the mountain, I haven't decided yet, and after all, I don't know the attitude of the imperial court at the moment, so I want to let out the wind to find out their reactions first.

Shangguan Che closed the letter and said, "The junior is willing to ask His Majesty for instructions on this matter." ”

Old Madam Tao was overjoyed and said with a smile: "That's great, with you doing the dredging at Your Majesty, I believe things will be much easier." Thank you!"

"You're welcome, old lady, I'll just give it a try. ”
