Chapter 62: The Truth
Liancheng was ordered to investigate the situation of the second prince Zhu Xun and the third prince Zhu Rong, and after finding out the Yushi, he asked Luo Gong to wave his hand, and Bingwei was driven out of the embassy by him together, leaving only him and Yushi.

When they went out, Lian Cheng and Bing Wei were very considerate to close the door, and then squeezed out the two personal soldiers who were originally guarding Luo Gong outside the door left and right, and the two began to act as the guards of the envoy.
After spending some time and finally straightening out all the secret facts of Zhong Qingchi's assassination case, Yu Shi said:
"The princess is a grinding mirror, maybe the previous "Distant Mountain Flower Pavilion", we didn't guess the wrong direction, but we guessed the wrong protagonist."
Luo Gong couldn't deny: "Yes. ”
Yu Shi continued: "The person who used the prince in "Distant Mountain Flower Pavilion" as a metaphor is actually not himself, but his wife, Princess Haoying. ”
Luo Gong casually hummed again.
Yu picked up and walked in front of Luo Gong: "The princess asked Mu Zhonghong to find the picture scroll in Zhong Xiaoli's hand, she must know that the picture scroll is a scandal that she tried so hard to hide, and the princess knew her secret before she was alive!" ”
Luo Gong raised his eyes to look at Yu Shi: "I have shared the same bed for many years, I am a normal person, it is impossible not to notice the strangeness of the person next to the pillow, the master of the horse will know, it is just a matter of time or time." ”
Yu Shi was incredulous: "So, from the moment the master knew about it, the princess had been looking for a solution, and in the end, was there only ...... left Dead? ”
Luo Gong got up and said, "Do you remember the final ending of "Far Mountain Flower Pavilion"? ”
Yu Shi said: "The fairy will never fall asleep again, and the prince will beg hard but not ...... Got ......."
She suddenly thought of something, just for a moment, and soon a very shiny line suddenly crossed her mind, but she was a little confused, and a little shocked after seeing the corner of the crazy truth.
Yu Shi stopped his mouth, his face was stunned, and he was quite discolored.
Luo Gong looked at this jade pick, and knew that she had figured out what he was trying to say:
"As you can imagine, this is a story of killing each other without falling in love, and the ending probably won't be very good."
Zhu Rong and Zhong Qingchi failed to unite because of love, but in the end, they killed each other because of hatred.
Zhu Rong set up a plot to kill Zhong Qingchi, and Zhong Qingchi retaliated by setting up a trick to force out Zhu Rong's true appearance, so that Jin Yiwei, who investigated his case, learned of Zhu Rong's fatal scandal.
If she was born in an ordinary family, Zhu Rong would have been hurt and sad for her parents for a while, or worse, she would have been kicked out of the house by the elders of the clan and disappeared from the family tree.
But Zhu Rong is not, she is the only princess of Chu State, and she is the emperor's most beloved pearl.
The love is deep, the responsibility is keen, how much the emperor favors Zhu Rong, how deep his expectations for Zhu Rong are, and finally the punishment for Zhu Rong to smear the royal face is heavy.
This is both relative and absolute.
With Luo Gong and Yu Shi's understanding of the high-ranking emperor, and with the love of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces for Zhu Yuan, the king of the country, no one would tolerate such a scandal, let alone explode!
It is a disgrace, it is unforgivable, it is unforgivable.
No matter how much the emperor dotes on Zhu Rong, he will not allow the Chu State to be covered with a layer of gray history because of her own fault, and he will not allow Zhu Rong's stain to explode, because the prosperity of the Three Kingdoms is not as calm as it seems.
Become a handle, become a laughing point, let the other two major powers play on the topic, and let the surrounding small countries that are not convinced secretly laugh?
No, no, no!
The Emperor must not allow such an irreparable thing to happen!
If it really happened, just the twists and turns of those pedantic and conservative old guys in the imperial history would be enough to pile up a few hills in the imperial case, and it would be enough for Zhu Yuan to be drowned in saliva on the Jinluan Palace of the early dynasty.
No matter whether Luo Gong and Yu Shi finally decide to listen to heaven or not, Zhu Rong's ending is already destined not to be good, and the best ending is that when the two of them do not surrender, Zhu Rong goes to confess to the emperor and pleads guilty.
Yu Shi said: "We have no evidence to confirm that the assassin who assassinated the horse master was sent by the princess. ”
Luo Gong agreed: "So now is not the time to report to the emperor." ”
Jade took a few steps back, and she sat down again:
"We can knock left and side, and let the princess understand something."
Luo Gong stepped down and sat down on the chair in the lower circle of the seat opposite Yushi:
"As long as the princess understands and makes the best choice, perhaps we can assume that we have never seen these two books."
His gaze fell on the two books in the middle of the chair in the upper circle.
It's a deal, and it's the best ending.
Yu picked up and walked to the door, and called:
"Liancheng!"
Liancheng immediately pushed it open and entered: "My lord? ”
Yu Shi said: "Go check the princess's itinerary for the past two days, check carefully!" ”
Liancheng had just finished checking the whereabouts of the two princes, and now he was going to check the princess again, and this change really made him a little unable to bypass the corner, but he still quickly took the order and started to investigate.
The door was closed again, and this time only the ice was left outside.
Yu Shi sat back in the circle chair and voiced her concerns:
"There are many guards around the princess, and after the picture scroll, I'm afraid the princess is not very willing to see us."
Luo Gong knew that what Yu Shi said was the truth, but he seemed to have a chance to win:
"As long as you are human, you will have weaknesses."
Yu Shi thought of a person: "Lin Yanweaving? ”
Then he denied himself: "No! Lin Yanzhi has always been arranged by the princess in the suburbs of Beijing, and even the house is in the name of Mu Zhonghong, which shows that the princess is trying her best to cover up this scandal, but she is reluctant to Lin Yanzhi, so she will arrange Lin Yanzhi in the suburbs of Beijing not far from Chujing! ”
Love, but not more than life.
This is Zhu Rong's love for Lin Yanzhi, a distorted relationship that is destined for Lin Yanzhi to become a meat ban that will never see the light of day.
Luo Gong had another understanding, and he said in one sentence:
"Lin Yanweaving did not make any transfer even after the horse master was assassinated, which shows that the princess is confident enough in her own layout, which is probably because of the prince, and now as long as we still have the account books in hand, then the prince is no longer worried, and the rest is only the princess's reluctance to Lin Yanweaving."
Yu Shi understood: "As long as the princess is still a little reluctant to Lin Yanzhi, then the princess will definitely have to see us and talk to us!" ”
Of course, the talk at that time was more than just talking.
As for other things, it doesn't matter anymore.
For example, there are differences in the account books of Zhong Qingchi's private business, and even all the shopkeepers betrayed Zhong Qingchi by leaning on Zhu Rong, and for example, Mo, Yao, and Jing, the three wealthy merchant families in Chu Jing, secretly conspired with the crown prince Zhu Xiao for mutual benefit.
And the reason why Zhu Xiao helped Zhu Rong cover up the scandal, and even covered up the truth of Zhong Qingchi's assassination, was just to fill the big hole in the household.
The same is true for Zhong Yan.
All forces, whether it is Zhong Qingchi's wife, Zhong Qingchi's father, or Zhong Qingchi's uncle who has never been close, all betrayed him for their own interests, and finally killed him.
Even if he didn't do it himself, under such a knowing and tacit look, Zhong Qingchi, who had lost all his protection, had only a dead end!
