Chu Shaoyuan's eyes were full of doubts and resentment when he looked at King Guangning, even if the late Emperor Wen on the bed still had a little smile on his face, he still couldn't dispel Chu Shaoyuan's doubts.

"Before the royal brother left, he had told this king about the establishment of the prince, not this king alone, and he also summoned a few pavilion elders at that time, if it wasn't for the sudden poisonous death of the imperial brother, now I am afraid that the position of the crown prince has already been decided!" King Guangning's face was cold, even in the face of Chu Shaoyuan's suspicion, he still did not change his face, and ordered Yan Yunwei to surround Chu Shaoyuan and not give Chu Shaoyuan any chance to escape.

The long knife was unsheathed, and the handle was sharp and sharp at Chu Shaoyuan, but Chu Shaoyuan was still unhurried, he had not recovered from Emperor Wen's death at this time, and while looking down at Emperor Wen's serene face, he carefully thought about the things before and after.

It's not that he didn't listen to King Guangning's words, it's just that he never thought that Emperor Wen would pass on the crown prince to someone other than him, in this world, except for the fourth bastard who was unwilling to put him to death at all times, who else could be?

"Uncle Fourteen thinks that I killed my father? Uncle Fourteen doesn't think this matter is very strange?" Chu Shaoyuan looked at King Guangning coldly, and he clearly had a general understanding of this matter in his heart, but King Guangning was not on his side, looking at the current situation, it was possible that he was standing next to the fourth child, even if he said the matter, it would be useless.

King Guangning's face had never been so cold as it was now, he listened to Chu Shaoyuan's words, thought carefully about the meaning of his words, and suddenly snorted coldly: "Strange, how can you explain the matter of you leaving the city? Don't tell this king that you went out of the city on the orders of the imperial brother!"

Chu Shaoyuan clenched his fists, he naturally didn't go out of the city because of others, but if he said it at this time, he was afraid that it would backfire, and with his eyes down, he said slowly: "Father...... Since the poisoning, no one has seen it, not even I can see my father, what can I go out of the city for, Uncle Fourteen is so powerful, otherwise Uncle Fourteen will go to check it out, but I think Uncle Fourteen is now in power, and he doesn't care what I went out of the city for, just give me a crime, and I can end up. ”

Such words, such a frustrated words like a lost dog, actually came out of Chu Shaoyuan's mouth, which made King Guangning surprised in his heart, and couldn't help but look at him, it was a sad face, his eyes were red, and there were thousands of words in his eyes, but he couldn't say half a word, he didn't ask for anything to himself, but he gave up on himself like this.

"You don't have to be like this!" Wang Guangning suddenly felt that there were more and more strange things about this matter, he clenched his fists, and the idea of arresting Chu Shaoyuan in his heart was also a little loose, "You confess to me, this poison, is it you who caused it! Or rather, you just know the origin of this poison, and you went out of the city just to hide people's eyes, isn't it?"

King Guangning asked sharply, but Chu Shaoyuan laughed, and looked up at King Guangning: "Uncle Fourteen doesn't have to ask me like this, isn't Uncle Fourteen plotting this world, this family business? Uncle Fourteen is willing to put any crime on my head, even if Uncle Fourteen wants this world, I can not say a word, but there is one thing, if the death of my father is really not the work of Uncle Fourteen, after Uncle Fourteen ascends the throne, don't let the thief go, can't let my father die so unjustly, can't let my father suffer such pain in vain!"

Chu Shaoyuan's words were like a heavy hammer, directly hitting the king of Guangning to pieces, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, looking at Chu Shaoyuan's eyes full of disbelief.

"You!"

Chu Shaoyuan smiled noncommittally, and raised his hands in front of him: "Come on, Uncle Fourteen wants to kill or chop, please do it!"

In this way, it seemed that he was going to be tied up and completely give up resistance, and Feng Xuzhao, who was on the side, stopped it again and again: "The third prince should not be confused for a while, such a chaotic minister and thief like the prince of Guangning, everyone will be punished, you must not be confused to this point! The minister is willing to take you out of a bloody road! You should not bear such an injustice!"

Feng Xuzhao's words made the King of Guangning can't help but look back at him, and the killing intent in that glance was quite strong, which frightened Feng Xuzhao so much that he shut up, and didn't say much, but after a while, he slowly moved his steps over.

"Third child, are you really willing to be arrested?" King Guangning didn't pay attention to Feng Xuzhao's actions, and the people in the room were all assigned by him, even if there was one more Feng Xuzhao, it was not a big deal, and he had already made a decision in his heart.

Chu Shaoyuan snorted and didn't make a sound.

The King of Guangning suddenly laughed, "Okay, the imperial brother really didn't misunderstand you!" He raised his hand, and the long knife in Yan Yunwei's hand was put into the sheath, he approached Chu Shaoyuan's side, and said in a low voice, "Before the imperial brother left, he regarded me as you, and told him, 'Don't let your father down in the future!' The imperial brother died too suddenly, I have to guard against it! You act carefully by yourself, in the future, this country, this foundation, will have to be supported by you alone!"

After speaking, patted Chu Shaoyuan's shoulder, King Guangning strode out of the Qianyuan Palace, his back looked so arbitrary and chic at first glance, but after looking at it for a long time, he faintly noticed that there was a bit of loneliness and loneliness in that back.

"Your Highness, are you not hurt?" Feng Xu Zhao saw King Guangning leaving, and hurriedly looked Chu Shaoyuan up and down, with a look of concern.

Chu Shaoyuan shook his head, "The news of my father's death must be passed on, you have worked hard these days, and you can't let go of all places in the palace, the perpetrator must still be in the palace and has not escaped, you must catch someone in these few days!

Feng Xu Zhao nodded again and again, looking at Chu Shaoyuan's frustration, he couldn't help but say: "Just now, the prince was calm, but in the end it was too risky, if the prince entrusted his life to the hands of the prince of Guangning, I was afraid that if he had a thought, you would ......."

"Uncle Fourteen won't do this," Chu Shaoyuan raised his eyes and looked at the sky outside the hall, the gray sky was covered with dark clouds, the autumn rain has been continuous these days, even a little bit of sunny day, and he feels extremely precious, "Uncle Fourteen cherishes feathers too much, unless he takes refuge in the fourth, in that case, he will not be so polite to this king as he is now, and although Uncle Fourteen stopped this king just now, he also has more questions than others, Uncle Fourteen only has his father in his heart, he will not do the kind of thing you think!"

It's just that he didn't put the words "Don't spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain" on his face, Feng Xuzhao didn't think it was ugly to be scolded by Chu Shaoyuan like this, since he took refuge in Chu Shaoyuan, he almost threw things like his face to the ground, especially now that Chu Shaoyuan is about to ascend the throne, the whole world will be Chu Shaoyuan's in the future, what dare he complain about in the face of the future monarch?

"The prince is far-sighted, and the ministers admire!"

"Alright, you go down first, and invite a few elders in, and this king has something to discuss with them. Chu Shaoyuan is clear about Feng Xuzhao's ability, but at the same time, he doesn't like Feng Xuzhao's style of slapping horses, so unless necessary, he won't talk to Feng Xuzhao too much, and if there is something to order, he will drive people away if he has nothing to do, out of sight and out of mind.

Feng Xu Zhao just came to Chu Shaoyuan, and he still couldn't figure out Chu Shaoyuan's temperament, so naturally Chu Shaoyuan did whatever he said, and after a while, several pavilion elders invited him from the side hall.

Xie Ning watched Chu Shaoyuan standing in front of him unharmed, and thousands of thoughts crossed his heart, only converging into one sentence.

"In the future, Da Yan will rely on His Highness!" He took the lead and knelt in front of Chu Shaoyuan, which can be regarded as a complete confirmation of Chu Shaoyuan's status.

Chu Shaoyuan hurriedly pulled them all up: "Now that my father has died, my father's death is unusual, even if this king wants to ascend the throne, he must first find out the real murderer of his father, otherwise what face does this king have to go to see his father? ”

In the end, they climbed up step by step from the bottom, and several pavilion elders are no strangers to investigating cases.

Lu Zhengming was in charge of the Criminal Department, and he was most familiar with handling cases, so he couldn't help asking: "Who was the last person to contact the emperor?"

"It's the King of Guangning!" Zhao Guangyao said firmly, as soon as a few of them came in, they saw the King of Guangning, so the last person who came into contact with Emperor Wen must be the King of Guangning.

"It won't be Uncle Fourteen, he has no reason to poison his father, this matter will not benefit him, so it won't be him!" Chu Shaoyuan talked about the matter, he also thought that the King of Guangning was the most suspicious at first, but now that he looked at it, the King of Guangning could not get any benefits from it at all, so there was no need for him to do this at all.

"Well, then there are only a few palace people and eunuchs who serve closely. Xie Ning groaned, "It's just that the cause of the emperor's death needs to be further investigated, and the emperor's dragon body ......."

If it was to be inspected at will, it would be too contemptuous of the respect of the Son of Heaven, so he just mentioned it for a while, and did not say any more.

Chu Shaoyuan said: "Since Huang Yizheng is here, you can let him see what kind of poison his father died of, this king knows that Huang Yizheng has this ability!"

And Huang Yizheng was waiting uneasily at this time, he didn't want to get involved at all, this time he almost put himself in, lived in the palace for so many days, not only did not take the emperor's body well, but also made the emperor's body worse and worse, and now the emperor died of poison again, making his heart as heavy as falling to the bottom.

Hearing Chu Shaoyuan summoning him, he hurriedly stood up and hurriedly came over, and when he heard the words clearly, he couldn't help but think about it for a while, and then said: "The emperor's previous poison has almost been pulled out, if it is said that it is another attack, it makes some sense, it can only be said that someone has poisoned again, but who is this person, the minister does not dare to speculate, this poison minister has identified, the attack is extremely fast, basically after touching it, it will attack!"

Before his words fell, Chu Shaoyuan thought of the eunuch who served closely, if this was the case, only those who served closely would have the opportunity to do this.

"Go and pass Zhao Yuande in......" Before he finished speaking, someone outside hurriedly came in to tell him.

"Back to the prince, Gonggong Xu is poisoned and died!"

Gonggong Xu was also one of the eunuchs who served Emperor Wen closely, Chu Shaoyuan only thought of Zhao Yuande, but he didn't expect such a person as Gonggong Xu, and he couldn't help but sink in his heart.

"Check it out!"

When the group came to the house where Father-in-law Xu lived, they saw Father-in-law Xu lying on the bed on all fours, his face was blue and white, bleeding from all his orifices, and he looked very terrifying.

"Is this considered suicide in fear of sin?" Zhao Guangyao couldn't help but ask.

"Probably not!" Lu Zhengming pointed to the tea utensils on the table next to him, as well as the snack box on the table, "If you commit suicide in fear of sin, you shouldn't have time to eat these before you die, and have you seen that Gonggong Xu's dress is clearly to rest, who would wear such a casual dress before he dies?"

Death is a big deal, especially for people who commit suicide in fear of sin, they must have a lot of things in their hearts, and they can be in such a relaxed state just after serving their master, and there is only one point, that is, he doesn't know that his master has been killed.

"It's not Gonggong Xu's hand, but it seems that it should be inseparable from Gonggong Xu. ”

Lu Zhengming's words made Zhao Guangyao puzzled, he was not a person who had handled cases, he had always been an errand boy in the Ministry of Industry, and most of the water conservancy projects in the Ministry of Industry were in charge, and he didn't understand why Lu Zhengming could deduce so many things from such a trivial matter.

"That's true," Xie Ning had been observing silently, not in a hurry to speak, at this time he also nodded, "What Lord Lu said makes sense, if Gonggong Xu knew about this matter in advance, he would definitely be very entangled in his heart, in this way, it will not be very easy, I still have to invite someone to take a look, how did Gonggong Xu die." ”

Chu Shaoyuan's face condensed, he knew that it would be difficult to find out, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult.

"The emperor's death can't wait, although the weather is cool these days, it's not winter, and people can't let it go," Lu Zhengming said to Chu Shaoyuan while not letting people move the evidence in the house, "The case can be investigated slowly, and the guards are strengthened everywhere in the palace, and people will always be arrested, but the emperor's funeral must be done as soon as possible, and the country cannot be without a king for a day, these things are not conflicting." ”

Several people persuaded Chu Shaoyuan to ascend the throne in this way, and it was also for the sake of political stability, after all, Emperor Wen died strangely, and if the throne was empty, the situation in the DPRK and China would not be so stable, and there would be more things at that time.
