Chapter 222
"How can General Han be sure that the assassin used the Transfiguration Technique?" the Emperor asked.
Han Tao looked at Xu Fengyang behind the third prince and replied, "Your Majesty, you might as well ask Guard Xu, he is the one who fought the most against that assassin." ”
Xu Fengyang was named, so he had to stand up in the column, and after he glanced at the third prince, he bowed down and replied: "When he fought against that assassin, his way of making moves was indeed completely different from that of the Jade Prince's sacrifice, so I want to come ......."
"Father!"
The third prince suddenly interjected, interrupting Xu Fengyang's words, Xu Fengyang's face was stunned, and then he seemed to realize something, his eyes flashed, and he immediately lowered his head and stepped aside.
The third prince stepped forward and continued: "Since Guard Xu said that the number of moves between the two is different, it is debatable whether the sleeping fence girl is really the assassin, but after all, the sleeping fence girl is the sacrifice of the jade prince, and it is related to the curse of the Xiang clan, so the assassin's matter is best decided after consideration." ”
He said and looked at the emperor, his eyes showing concern: "Father, you are frightened tonight, it is better to go back to the dormitory to rest first, and the matter will be investigated by Lord Han and Lord Luan for the time being, and it will not be too late to discuss it the next day." ”
The third prince, who has always only indulged in flowers and plants, has never taken the initiative to stand up for such a limelight on such an occasion before, so he attracted the attention of others from the beginning of his speech.
At this time, after everyone listened to what he said, the expressions on everyone's faces became a little intriguing.
Xiangyu's gaze paused slightly on the figure of the third prince, Xin Chang, and then moved away, with a more thoughtful look in his eyes.
The two sides were silent for a moment, the emperor sighed, raised his hand to show his intentions, and the guards on both sides quickly withdrew.
In the agitation of the guards' evacuation, the emperor looked at Xiangyu and said with a smile: "Yu Gongzi, this time I will look at your face and not take the sacrifice for the time being, but if it is verified that the assassination was indeed committed by her, please don't stop Yu Gongzi from sending someone to Xiangfu to dignitaries." ”
The emperor's tone is always soft and gentle, but there is a hidden edge in it.
Xiangyu waved his hand at the emperor and said: "Your Majesty's dragon body has been disturbed, and those who have committed such a big crime, I will also order someone to investigate and see who is the ghost who is haunting, not only hiding his head and tail, deceiving, but also daring to disturb the holy body, Your Majesty can rest assured, I will definitely give Your Majesty an explanation at that time." ”
After Xiangyu finished speaking, he summoned Yueru and rode up.
In the blink of an eye, the group had turned into a few rays of light and disappeared into the night sky.
The third prince looked up at the direction where Xiangyu and the others had disappeared, and an inexplicable emotion flowed quickly in his eyes.
Sheng Zhuohuai on the side, with exploration in his eyes, was looking at him, and when the third prince lowered his head, his gaze was just on the same level as Sheng Zhuohuai.
Both of them were stunned, then nodded at each other and looked away.
The third prince who turned around, there was a strange glow in his crystal clear eyes.
Among the people who came to Mingluan Hall tonight, there were no two brothers, Sheng Wuyu and Sheng Shuiyu.
Since Sheng Wuyu went to the mansion to see Xiangyu that day, he has become much more disciplined than before, and he no longer takes the initiative to stir up trouble, and now he only leisurely recites poetry, paints and plays chess in the mansion all day long.
And Sheng Shuiyu was still restless, he was in the eldest prince's study at the moment, waiting for the news from the palace with the eldest prince.
A small servant ran in quickly, bowed to the eldest prince and Sheng Shuiyu and said, "Your Highness Qiqi, the third prince of Sheng, the young prince of Yu has returned to Xiangfu from the palace with his sacrifices, and there has been no major conflict with Your Majesty and Lord Sheng in the palace. ”
The eldest prince was stunned for a moment, and asked a little eagerly, "What do you say about the assassination?"
"Because the ghost of the assassination is completely different from the sacrifice spell path of the Jade Prince, so it is impossible to be sure that the assassin is the sacrifice, the Jade Princesse and His Majesty are ready to send someone to investigate, and His Majesty is here to let General Han and Lord Luan investigate this matter in detail. ”
After hearing this, the eldest prince frowned, and he waved his hand at the little guy, who hurriedly retreated.
When the figure of the little guy disappeared completely, the eldest prince suddenly looked irritable, and he asked Sheng Shuiyu, who was sitting on the lower side, "What do you mean by father? Shouldn't he and Lord Sheng take down the sacrifice directly? Why do you have to investigate now? Father and Lord Sheng are obviously already ......?"
"Your Highness!" Sheng Shuiyu interrupted him, "Are you afraid?"
Sheng Shuiyu's gaze at the eldest prince was gloomy, and those snake eyes were flashing with a faint light at the moment, as if they had pierced his heart in an instant.
The eldest prince's face froze.
Sheng Shuiyu: "Since it has already begun, I'm afraid now, I'm afraid it's too late." ”
The eldest prince said helplessly: "I'm just thinking, how can Xiangfu say that it also saved Xian Shu's life before, and I'm doing it now...... Isn't it revenge, if the jade prince finds out that it is me in the future......"
"It's not you who started this matter, it's ......," Sheng Shuiyu said, glancing meaningfully in the direction of the next room.
The eldest prince: "Although the words are for example, if Xian Shu knows, she will definitely be angry with me and hate me......"
Sheng Wuyu was a little speechless when he saw him like this.
If it weren't for the fact that he was the son of the empress, and he was unwilling to be a puppet emperor, how could the Sheng family choose to support him to ascend to the throne.
All day long, my mind is full of women, I have no ambition, and I am timid, looking forward and backward, my mother-in-law and mother are not simply at all, at this time, I still think about women.
Sheng Shuiyu's eyes couldn't help but flash with disdain.
Suddenly there was the sound of a heavy object hitting a wall in the next room.
"Knock knock" and "knock knock" and then again.
When the eldest prince and Sheng Shuiyu heard this, they both looked stunned.
Soon, a small servant hurriedly ran in sweaty, bowed to the eldest prince and said: "Your Highness, his situation is getting worse and worse, if it continues like this, I'm afraid that the villain will not be able to hold it down, so I have to find a few ghost deterrent masters quickly." ”
The eldest prince and Sheng Shuiyu exchanged glances, the two quickly got up, and the eldest prince asked the little guy to go to the ghost master immediately, and he went to the next room with Sheng Shuiyu.
The night was deep, and two orange lanterns were lit in front of the closed door, and the sound of the door hitting the wall was getting heavier and faster, mixed with the sound of messy footsteps and the obstruction of several servants.
The eldest prince stood with his hands in his hands, staring at the closed door motionless, his already frowning brow getting tighter and tighter.
Sheng Shuiyu stood aside, but his face was bored.
He was abused by ghosts, and this kind of battle was really an ordinary thing in his eyes, so after listening to it for a while, he even began to yawn.
Behind him, the little guy who had just been ordered to go had already returned, and he had brought a few ghost deterrents.
