At this time, the voice of the third prince sounded again, unhurriedly, as if narrating a story: "This matter still starts with the death of Mrs. Shuyi." After the death of Mrs. Shuyi, Erchen and several royal brothers and brothers investigated carefully, but asked Erchen to find out a strange thing, that is, the palace man who had not recovered from his serious injuries - Ah Li. ”

He lowered his voice very slowly, as if to make it clear to everyone: "According to Ling Shijian's examination of the wounds, among the dead, Ah Li was the first to be stabbed. Erchen didn't pay much attention to this matter at that time, but because Ah Li survived, he traced back and forth along her history, but asked me to find out that the servants who used to serve the emperor's sister in the Qin family are almost all ...... now Dead. ”

"How do you say this?" Emperor Zhongyuan asked, his suspicious eyes once again winding around Qin Su's body, "What do you mean that you are all dead?"

The third prince moved his body and said in a deep voice: "Father, please ask Rong Erchen to come carefully." Erchen noticed that from the first year of the Zhongyuan Dynasty, the people who served the emperor's sister in the Qin family were a husband and wife, named Ah Fu and Ah Tu. In the autumn of the twelfth year of the Middle Yuan Dynasty, on the night when the emperor's sister left Lianyun Tianzhuang and returned to Qingzhou, the couple died in a fire, and almost no bones remained. ”

The voice of the third prince echoed in the main hall, and he was the only one in the entire Shoucheng Palace, and even Emperor Zhongyuan was quietly listening to his narration.

Even though he was kneeling on the ground, there was a burst of joy on the face of the third prince.

For the first time, he felt valued. This is definitely not something that can only be obtained by the unruly Guanglu doctor he carries.

He couldn't help but slow down his speech more and more, and continued: "In addition to the couple who died in the fire, there is another handmaid named Ah Dou, who has also followed Princess Jinling since she was a child. Coincidentally, in the days before Princess Jinling left Lianyun, this handmaiden named Ah Dou disappeared, and since then there has been no news, as if there is no such person in this world. ”

Emperor Zhongyuan paused as he rubbed the armrest, as if he was a little impatient when he listened, and his eyebrows wrinkled slightly: "Aren't there just two subordinates? ”

"Thank you, Father!" The third prince seemed to be very happy, these three words were said very loudly, and after getting up, he bowed upwards again: "Father, forgive me, this matter has dragged on for a long time, and you must start from the beginning to hear the meaning." ”

"That's it, you go on. Emperor Zhongyuan said lightly, and the Yin Owl's gaze swept over Qin Su again.

Qin Su still looked like a genius, but he didn't drink any more tea, but sat quietly, there was no anger between his eyebrows, only peace.

is just such a calm bearing, and the people in the room also feel a little extraordinary.

The third prince looked at her with a smug face, hooked his lips and smiled: "In addition to Ah Dou and the husband and wife, on the day of the movement in Beijing, the personal maid of the imperial sister, Ah Gu, was stoned to death; after that, the imperial sister returned to the Qin family from Shangjing, and as a result, just before she went to the Jiuxiao Palace to cultivate, a handmaid named Ah Kui, who had served her in Shangjing, fell into the water and died; ”

Speaking of this, he swept his gaze around, and said in conclusion: "At this point, the only remaining maid who knows the roots by the emperor's sister is Ah Li. As for the palace people around the imperial sister now, most of them were transferred from the granges in various parts of the Qin Mansion after the movement in Beijing, and what they knew about the imperial sister was not as good as the dead or missing. ”

The hall was silent, and the eyes of the princes were turning around the bodies of the three princes and Qin Su, and most of them showed a look of contemplation and speculation.

The death of a few servants in a large family is nothing. It's just that when the third prince singles it out like this, the death or disappearance of Qin Su's servants seems a bit abnormal.

Qin Su frowned and looked at the red shirt on his body, and his heart was suddenly clear.

At that moment, those questions and puzzles finally had answers.

It turned out that everything that happened around her was all for this moment.

At that moment, her eyes seemed to appear again on the night of Jiuxiao Palace, the black-clothed man named Ah Cooking, who killed Jinxiu first and then stabbed Ah Li.

It seems that from the beginning to the end, these people have only one purpose:

Remove all those who know Qin Su well.

Even though she didn't know why they did this, it was clear that many strange things that had happened around her in her past and present lives were now showing signs of coming to light.

"According to what you say, the servants around Jin Ling all died unexpectedly?" Emperor Zhongyuan's gloomy voice rang out, like a forest wind, blowing through the hall.

The third prince bowed to him: "Yes, father." According to the clues found by the sons, the death of the servants around the emperor's sister was by no means accidental, but was consciously eliminated by various methods. ”

Emperor Zhongyuan didn't speak, but his cold eyes swept towards him.

The third prince's heart trembled, and he didn't dare to sell Guan Zi anymore, so he hurriedly said: "According to what Erchen saw, that person got rid of these servants who knew the roots, and his purpose was only one, that is, to make all the people who knew the details of the emperor's sister half of them gone. As he spoke, he pointed to the stack of confessions and said, "In addition to these servants, Qin Shizhang's death back then was not an accident. This confession is also recorded. ”

Emperor Zhongyuan looked at the confession with a calm face, his eyes suddenly stopped somewhere on the first page, and a touch of shock crossed his face: "Sure enough?"

"Yes, Father. According to Erchen's speculation, Qin Shizhang should have also been framed to death. The third prince paced to the side, and his voice slowed down: "And the reason why that mysterious person wants to get rid of all the people who know the roots of the imperial sister is not difficult to guess, that is: let the imperial sister enter the palace smoothly, from a humble outer room girl, to become a princess who attracts the attention of all people, so as to ......"

"Wait. A voice interrupted him abruptly.

Everyone followed the sound and found that the person who spoke was actually the prince who had been silent before.

As soon as he stood up, everyone in the audience was relieved, although they didn't say anything, but everyone's expressions brought out a little bit.

Since the three princes had previously insisted that this conspiracy was not only related to the Huan family, but also to the Jinling princess, His Royal Highness the Prince, who had always stood on the same line with the Huan family, could not sit idly by.

At this time, it is the right time to speak.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, do you have something to say?" the third prince looked at the crown prince with a smile on his face.
