"You really haven't noticed that Zhao Shunde's words and deeds have been abnormal in the past few days?"

Guo Rong's eyes were gloomy staring at the slaves and maids in the inner house in front of the lobby, he didn't expect that nothing happened in the Linjiang Hou Mansion for two months, he only went back to the palace today to do business, and the Hou Mansion was in a hurry.

Han Qian, Feng Yi, and Kong Xirong sat in the hall, looking at him as if nothing had happened, as if today's matter had nothing to do with him at all.

When such a thing happened, no one dared to hide it, Guo Rong was not in the Hou Mansion at the time, so the deputy supervisor of the Hou Mansion rushed to the palace to report the matter.

The emperor was furious when he heard this, Han Qian and the others didn't know, they only knew that a team of guards would soon come from the palace and take the third prince Yang Yuanpu away.

After that, Shen He, the young eunuch of the Inner Servant Province, rushed over with Guo Rong and gathered everyone together to investigate the matter; Chen De and Qian Wenxun took the guard battalion to block the Linjiang Marquis Mansion.

After the incident, Han Qian has been secretly complaining, he originally expected the three princes to deliberately miss or "mistakenly kill" one or two hateful slaves and maids, and then take the initiative to admit their mistakes, which can not only make it difficult to punish Anning Palace, but also establish prestige among the servants and maids of the Hou Mansion, and he can also "dare not avoid and neglect" the three princes honestly, without deliberately avoiding the ubiquitous eyeliner of Anning Palace.

However, he never expected that the third prince would be so eager, and he didn't have the patience to find a better opportunity for a few more days, so he directly framed his slaves and maids to assassinate him.

After the incident, Han Qian was a little stupid and deeply afraid.

The prince killed by mistake, and the assassination of the prince against the assassin were two completely different incidents, Yang Yuanpu only cared about struggling and restraint, but he didn't think about how big the difference was and how much trouble it might cause!

The assassination of the prince, usually speaking, such a major matter should be sent to the Yushitai and Dali Temple to meet the Zongzheng Mansion for trial.

And once the Yushitai, Dali Temple, and Zongzheng Mansion were all involved, Han Qian couldn't estimate in what direction the situation would develop.

However, the palace finally sent Shen He, the young eunuch, to investigate the matter with Guo Rong and Chen De, which made Han Qian calm down a little, guessing that Emperor Tianyou didn't want the situation to expand, otherwise he really didn't know how to end it.

At present, it has been ascertained that the dagger used in the "assassination" was not brought into the Hou Mansion by Zhao Shunde, but was inadvertently lost by a guard of the guard battalion, and the guard did not admit to colluding with Zhao Shunde, and was ordered by Shen He and Guo Rong to be detained and tortured at this time.

At this time, more than a dozen chamberlains and palace maids who were implicated in Zhao Shunde in the inner house were all escorted to the lobby for interrogation, but after the whole afternoon, the red candle had a high fever at this time, and nothing substantive was interrogated.

And how is it possible to interrogate something substantial?

Song Xin stood behind Guo Rong with his waist crossed, his chest bulging up, and his rather beautiful eyes were full of gloom at this time, staring at Li Chong.

Song Xin was also flustered at first, just thinking about ensuring that the third prince Yang Yuanpu was safe and sound, so as to prevent them from being implicated and causing death, but at this time, his mind calmed down, and it was naturally not difficult to see that there were too many suspicious points in today's assassination.

Zhao Shunde is tall and big, no matter how diligent the third prince Yang Yuanpu has been practicing riding and archery in the past two months, he is only a teenager under the age of fourteen and with a thin body, Zhao Shunde was so hasty that the assassination failed, but in turn asked the third prince Yang Yuanpu to stab him with scissors?

When everyone heard the sound, Li Chong's first reaction was to subdue Zhao Shunde first, and it was not wrong, but in the process of subduing Zhao Shunde, Zhao Shunde's throat was directly smashed, which was too hard, right?

At this time, not only were the chamberlains and palace maids involved with Zhao Shunde out for interrogation, but also the guards who lost the daggers were punished for an afternoon, and no clues were traced, isn't the matter clear enough?

Li Chong was just staring at the blue-patterned bricks on the floor at this time, and others couldn't see any look on his face, but looking at his stiff shoulders, it could be seen that he was under great pressure.

Han Qian touched his nose with his hand and looked at Shen He and Guo Rong who were standing in the hall with gloomy faces.

Shen He, as the young eunuch of the Inner Servant Province and the regular attendant of the Wenying Palace, is one of the most trusted eunuchs of Emperor Tianyou, although he was ordered to investigate the assassination case, but he rarely spoke when he went to the Linjiang Marquis's Mansion, mainly Guo Rong and Chen De came forward to find out the people in the palace to get to the bottom of it.

However, Shen He is not like Song Xin, he doesn't seem to be interested in Li Chong, and most of the day has passed, and his eyes have not stayed on Li Chong's body.

Han Qian sighed slightly in his heart, the secret feeling was really strange, he had turned a blind eye to such details in the past, but the memory of Zhai Xinping in the dream seemed to be integrated into his blood, and from this seemingly stalemate scene, he could see too much information.

The acting skills of the third prince Yang Yuanpu are very clumsy, no one is a fool, Shen He can win the trust of Emperor Tianyou, and he was appointed by Emperor Tianyou to investigate the assassination of the prince, it is impossible to be a fool, how can he not see the flaws?

When Emperor Tianyou got the news, he should have guessed that this case was very likely to be a family scandal, and he did not send the case to the Yushitai Association with Dali Temple and Zongzheng Mansion for trial, but sent Shen He over, the purpose is that the family scandal should not be publicized.

And Shen He came over to see the flaws, and ignored Li Chongli, naturally adhering to the will of Emperor Tianyou not to raise the ugliness of the family, but he did not directly cover up the case, but Guo Rong and Chen De took out everyone in the mansion to investigate, in the final analysis, Shen He did not want to offend the Anning Palace.

Is it to expose the clumsy acting skills of the third prince Yang Yuanpu, he actually depends on Guo Rong and Chen De to compete in will, right?

In this way, Shen He does not have to be sandwiched between Emperor Tianyou and Anning Palace.

Of course, Guo Rong's reaction was also very strange, pulling the chamberlains and palace maids who were involved with Zhao Deshun to the lobby, and there were only those questions over and over again, and even stopped Song Xin, who was eager to try, with his eyes, and prevented her from pointing the finger at Li Chong impatiently.

Guo Rong is stalling for time, maybe wait for the Anning Palace to make the most decisive decision, and then decide whether to lift the lid or not?

“……”

After waiting for a while, there was a sound of hurried footsteps in the courtyard, and then I saw the deputy supervisor of the Hou Mansion who came to the palace at noon to deliver the news, disappeared for an afternoon, and only then did he come back in a hurry, walked to Guo Rong's side and whispered a few words.

Shen He, the young eunuch of the Inner Servant Province, narrowed his eyes, as if he was blind to the scene in front of him.

"This case has been clarified, it was Zhao Shunde who had evil intentions and colluded with the guard Zhao Cang to assassinate His Highness." Guo Rong turned around and said Shen He, who was sitting in the hall.

"Did you find out?" Shen He asked.

"It's clear," Guo Rong said affirmatively, "Guo was negligent and caused the traitor to infiltrate the Hou Mansion, so he went back to the palace with Lord Shen and asked His Majesty for his guilt." ”

"Now just ask me for the guilt, now that the case has been investigated, everything will wait for Your Majesty to be settled." Shen He's body is fat, I'm afraid that it weighs two hundred pounds, at this time, he supported the armrest, pulled his fat body out of the narrow Taishi chair, and seemed to be unwilling to stay in the Linjiang Marquis Mansion for a moment, and took the two young eunuchs in Tsing Yi and hurried back to the palace to resume his life.

And now that the facts of the case have been "investigated" clearly, Han Qian and the others can go back to their respective homes.

Although the guard battalion blocked the Hou Mansion and strictly forbade the news to leak out, if such a big thing happened, at least the Han family, the Feng family, the Kong family, and the Xinchang Hou Mansion could not be detected at all.

Han Qian walked out of the Hou Mansion, in addition to Zhao Kuo, Fan Dahei, and Lin Haizheng waiting outside the Hou Mansion, Fan Xicheng and Han Laoshan also stood in front of a carriage, waiting for him to come out.

At this time, the night was already dark, Han Qian and the others did not eat much lunch, at this time they were hungry, and they did not have the strength to ride a horse, so they walked towards the carriage, preparing to take the carriage back.

"Han Jiaqilang, it's still early, you and I will go somewhere to have a drink, and I will be shocked." Li Chong walked over from behind, grabbed Han Qian's arm without saying anything, and didn't tell him to leave.

"It's so late at night, presumably His Highness will stay in the palace for a few more days this time, and it's not too late for us to drink together tomorrow." Han Qian looked up at the crescent moon that climbed up the tip and said.

Li Chong was already quite calm if he wasn't scared today, Han Qian secretly complained, thinking that he was going to leave with Li Chong at this time, Li Chong was so angry that even if he didn't stab him with a knife, he would probably have to beat him up!

"Qilang is not even interested in going to the Evening Red Mansion, which he misses the most on weekdays?" Li Chong stared at Han Qian fiercely, at this time, he had the heart to tear him apart, so recklessly instigating the three princes, almost making them lose all the plates, if he didn't teach Han Qian a lesson today, how could he endure this breath?

"......" Seeing that Li Chong was so angry that he wanted to pull him to the Late Red Mansion theory, Han Qian knew that he couldn't escape this catastrophe, and said to Fan Xicheng, "The young marquis must pull me to drink, I can't refuse, you go back to tell my father first, I will go back after drinking with the young marquis." ”

Fan Xicheng and Zhao Kuo didn't know what was going on, but seeing that Han Qian had been dragged by Li Chong and climbed into another carriage, they could only go back first.

When Feng Yi and Kong Xirong saw this scene, their faces were full of surprise, and they didn't know when Han Qian and Li Chong had become so close.
