Chapter 164: Su Yu's suspicions

Next, the emperor and the queen will definitely tell the prince about this matter, and I am afraid that this matter will be decided by His Royal Highness the prince in the end. Then, he only needs to convince His Royal Highness the Crown Prince again.

The assassination of the princess is already a major event, and the assassination of the emperor is even more of a major event. The assassination was repeated several times, which made the emperor Long Yan angry and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter.

However, although a thorough investigation was ordered, all indications indicated that the assassination was aimed at Princess Su Li. The emperor, the crown prince and the prince Su Yu all knew that this matter must be related to Su Huai, the Marquis of Dingbei. He ordered a thorough investigation just to find out, how did these people sneak into the heavily guarded palace?

Is there an internal response in this palace, or is there any lax security that has allowed these assassins to take advantage of the loopholes? These must be investigated, otherwise something like this will happen again. Since they knew that there would be many assassins to kill Su Li, the palace was many times more heavily guarded than usual, and many assassins were eliminated one after another on weekdays.

This is really unconvincing if there is no internal response.

That night, everyone in the main hall was screened out, except that those associated with the Assassins were interrogated overnight.

The crown prince Su Zhe and the prince of Dingbei, Su Yu, were still the main personnel in the trial, after all, only the two of them knew best why these assassins came and who sent them. But none of these things can be known to outsiders, and Emperor Su Fan sent some other officials to help them.

Su Zhe and Su Yu had just finished trying a group of people and took a break for a while.

Su Zhe looked at Su Yu, who was a little tired, and said with some worry: "Are you okay? Do you want to go back and rest earlier, after all, your arm is still injured." ”

Su Yu shook his head and said, "It's not a big deal, it's just a small injury." ”

Su Zhe knew that his persuasion would not have any effect, since he was a child, when would Su Yu listen to his own opinion on the things he decided? Especially when this matter was also related to Li Er, he would not listen to his own opinion.

also analyzed the case with him, "Since I knew that the Marquis of Dingbei would send someone to kill Li Er, the security in this palace has become more and more strict, and you have arranged a lot of masters to protect Li Er in secret, and this protection circle has come and gone." As a result, I didn't expect that these assassins were still mixed in, I am afraid that there is an internal response. Moreover, he was also mixed in with the maidservants of those young ladies of the family. ”

"You're right, there is indeed an internal response, and I suspect that the people of Dingbei Hou have infiltrated the palace, and it is even possible that they have been ambushed in the palace all along. Since he could leave such a force in Luoyang unknowingly, it is naturally possible for the palace to ambush his people. Su Yu said coldly.

Su Zhe nodded, agreed with Su Yu's statement, and said, "You're right, it's time to clean up this palace." ”

As for how to investigate, then it is natural to start with the people who selected these palace maids.

Su Yu said again: "Dongfang Lin, you can also check it out, but in private, don't let him know that you are checking him." ”

Su Zhe was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that Su Yu had eaten this Dongfang Lin's vinegar on top of the hall before, and now he let himself check on him, can this not make him think more?

He chuckled and said, "Are you sure you didn't let me check on him because I was jealous?"

Su Yu glanced at Su Zhe faintly and said, "There is something wrong with this person." ”

Su Zhe held back a smile and said, "But I did hear that my father seems to like this Dongfang Lin very much, and he also revealed it to me in private." Eighty percent of his father wanted him to be a colt. ”

When Su Yu heard this, his face became even worse, but he did say confidently: "Just by him, do you think it is possible?"

"It's unlikely. After all, Li Er likes Su Yu, and he also admires Su Yu's methods very much, how can he let others succeed.

"However, why do you think there is something wrong with this person?" Su Zhe asked curiously, not understanding what Su Yu thought, and inexplicably felt that Dongfang Lin was suspicious.

Su Yu said: "At today's banquet, Dongfang Lin really doesn't look like a son of a poor family. Don't you think that for a poor boy who participated in this kind of palace banquet for the first time, he has no sense of discomfort and inferiority at all? On the contrary, he is like a noble son who is accustomed to this kind of scene, and knows how to have fun. Combining the two games of flying flowers and drumming and passing flowers, how can the average poor child get these when he is busy studying, unless he is a down-and-out noble child. “

Also, he was too detail-oriented, as if he was calculating something. In addition, where did a poor child get the money to learn the piano, a piano is worth a lot of money. ”

Su Zhe interrupted: "Then what if someone in his family can make the piano and play the piano?"

"I can't rule out this possibility, that's why I asked you to check this person carefully. Also, don't you think the sound of the right strings is more like a code?"

Su Zhe thought carefully about the situation at that time, and those palace maids did it after the strings were broken, and he also felt that something was wrong in his heart at that time. But I didn't think about it so much when the situation was urgent, and now that I think about it, I really have a lot of doubts. For example, why didn't the assassination be done sooner or later, but the assassination was done after Li Er's performance?

In fact, if Su Zhe is allowed to choose the timing of the assassination, it should be the best time for Li Er to perform, without so many people hindering him, the possibility of successful assassination is obviously greater. Could it be because he didn't know the appearance of the person he was going to assassinate?

"I have a guess right now. Su Yu said suddenly.

"What conjecture?" asked Su Zhe.

Su Yu didn't know where to look, and said slowly: "These assassins didn't know Li Er at first, and the reason why they didn't do it was because they were waiting for an opportunity to get to know her. Among them, the assassin among these maidservants who ambushed the young lady of the family was the main assassin who assassinated Li'er, and the others were just trying to make the scene more chaotic, and it was not ruled out that they were waiting for someone to point out who was going to kill. “

Su Zhe fell into deep thought, Su Yu analyzed it like this, he felt that this conjecture was correct. The person behind this probably wanted to kill Li Er by taking advantage of the chaos, but they ignored whether the degree of chaos would affect the assassination.

"Leave this verification to me, you can go and rest, and you're tired all night, otherwise Li'er should be distressed. Su Zhe moved Su Li out and tried to get Su Yu to rest obediently.

Unexpectedly, Su Yu nodded obediently, got up and planned to rest.

Before leaving, he said, "Of course......"

Su Zhe looked at Su Yu suspiciously.

I only heard Su Yu say leisurely: "It's really because I'm jealous!" he dropped the words and walked away.

Su Zhe: "......"

But it's really strange to hear Su Yu say this with his own ears.

Actually, he originally wanted to tease Su Yu, "Actually, I think your crushing cup is more like a signal", but he still didn't say it after all. Maybe Su Yu is unhappy and will never help him with errands in the future, then it will really outweigh the losses.

......

The affair continued until the early morning of the next day, when the people at the dinner were able to leave the palace. The ladies who were infiltrated by the Assassins had nothing to do with it, but the Assassins used the best human skin masks, which deceived them, and naturally the guards at the palace gate.

After all, disfiguration was only prevalent in the rivers and lakes, and who would have thought that the assassin would even use the transfiguration technique, and thus be exploited.

Since then, there has been an additional rule in the palace to check on the person who enters the palace, that is, to check whether the person's face has been disguised.

As for the assassins who infiltrated the palace maids, they were really found by the crown prince Su Zhe Shunteng, and once they were verified, they were all executed.

This incident made Su Yu very angry, this time his father was really willing to spend a lot of money, and he did not hesitate to expose himself to get rid of Li Er. He can't be so passive anymore, otherwise sooner or later he will be unable to guard against it. It's just that he hasn't thought of any way to deal with it yet.

After the matter was settled, one day, Emperor Su Fan hinted that the ministers could hand over the stickers for their unmarried sons. As a result, the children of the whole Luoyang City family were boiling, and this "handing over the sticker" was a code word for the royal family's marriage, which meant that it was time to propose to the princess. This worship sticker is handed over, so that the princess can pick out a favorite one among them, and ask this person out to chat and meet alone. If the princess has a crush, then this person is a colt.

This matter also reached Su Yu's ears, and he was very unhappy. Because, according to Su Zhe, all the children of the family who meet the requirements have handed over the worship stickers, and the current worship stickers are nearly 100 people, and they have also eliminated some people with bad looks and character. The pressure on the prince is huge, so many rivals in love. Regardless of the fact that most of these rivals are not to be feared, Li Er will definitely not look down on them.

However, in order to prevent Li Er from thinking about it, Su Yu also found someone to marry. So, I also handed over a sticker, which was personally sent by His Royal Highness the Prince.

Naturally, he also said a few words to Su Zhe.

Su Zhe took Su Yu's son's worship sticker and went to visit his sister in Lanyue Palace, and by the way, he helped Su Yu to investigate the "enemy situation".

Since Emperor Su Fan hinted at those ministers, these days, Su Li has been suffering, and people have been sending condolences to Lanyue Palace.

Her father and mother often came to her palace to ask her if she had a crush, and every time she heard it, she had to repeatedly say that she was still young and really didn't want to marry too early. The queen mother is also easy to talk to, and she is really reluctant to marry herself, but her father seems to be in a hurry to marry herself, which makes her speechless.

She suspected that it was because she and Lu robbed him of his mother that night, so her father was so anxious to marry herself?

The gift she asked for that day was to let the queen mother sleep with her for one night, but her father did not agree, and in the end, the queen mother still resolutely abandoned her father and went to sleep with her. Eight achievements are because of this incident, so my father wants to marry him off so much.

Hmph, my father is really careful!
