Chapter 104: Assassin of Zhao State
"Zhao Guo?" The King of Chu groaned secretly, tapped his fingers lightly, and said suspiciously: "Why Zhao Guo?" ”
Tian Jian shook his head and said, "I'm just mentioning a hypothesis here, I can only say that Zhao Guo is also suspicious." The envoys here are Zhao State in addition to the main palace, and a chaotic Chu State is a good prey for Zhao State, which is in a hurry to expand. Zhao Guo must be undoubted! ”
Ling Yin Zilan learned to be obedient this time, and instead of pointing the contradiction directly at Tian Jian, she asked: "May I ask the prince, if it is Qin Zhao's person, then what evidence does His Highness have?" On the contrary, the suspicion of Qi is indelible. ”
It seemed that in order to show his public intentions, he added another sentence after he finished speaking, "This order Yin is all for the consideration of the Chu State this time, and if he is offended, it is also to verify the murderer." ”
Tian Jian nodded, with an inexplicable smile on his face, and said, "The king knows that these three people will tell us who is behind the murder of the King of Chu." ”
"Dead people still speak?" King Chu was surprised.
Tian Jianzheng said: "Dead people, only dead people don't lie, they don't deceive people!" ”
"Oh?" The King of Chu said lightly.
Tian Jian's face was solemn and said: "Look at which country it is, the difference between ordinary people is the words of which country he speaks and the clothes he wears." But some careful observers can see some suspicions from the clues. ”
After finishing speaking, he pointed to a guard of the Chu State and said, "Go, uncover the clothes of these three dead bodies." ”
The guards of the State of Chu hesitated and did not dare to move forward.
Ling Yin Zilan shouted: "Let's try him first, and see how this kid who hasn't grown all his hair can see it." ”
The guards of the State of Chu stepped forward and untied their clothes.
Tian Jian wandered back and forth, observed carefully for a while, and a confident smile appeared on his face: "King Chu, this palace already knows which country these people are from. ”
"Where's the people?" The king of Chu was puzzled.
Tian Jian shook his head and said to the king of Chu: "Please also ask the king to call craftsmen to come and shave their hair." ”
In a few moments, a craftsman was summoned, and in a few quarters of an hour, the hair of the three men had been shaved clean, revealing three sleek heads.
"Prince Jian, where do you prove which country they are from now?" Ling Yin Zilan asked.
"Isn't it because Lord Yin hasn't seen it yet?" Tian Jian said sarcastically.
Yin Zilan's face turned red when she was stabbed by this sentence, so she had to snort coldly to see what Tian Jian would do in the future.
"When I approached these three people, I smelled a very strong smell of mutton, although it was deliberately covered by the spices on the body, but when the clothes were opened, the smell dispersed, and I had a suspicion that this was a Hu man. However, we are not sure yet. After all, some farmers raise sheep at home, and they will also stick to the smell of sheep. Tian Jiandao.
"Then you shaved their hair to prove whether these people are Hu people?" King Chu seemed to have guessed the answer and asked.
Tian Jian nodded appreciatively and explained: "I am a Chinese person, Shang Guanli, my hair has been coiled on my head since I was a child, and over time, this hair will leave a mark on my head. But the Hu people are different, they don't know what their parents' hair should not be abandoned, or for the convenience of survival, the hair on their heads is often tied into small braids, and some will be shaved. In this case, there would be no mark on their shaved heads. So I can conclude that these people are Hu people! ”
"Hu Ren?" A cold glint shot out of King Chu's eyes.
Hu people? Which country may have Hu people, only Zhao Guoer!
Among the people of Zhao State, the Hu people were not uncommon, and the King of Zhao Wuling not only learned the Hu people's Hu clothes and cavalry archery, but also recruited those Hu people into soldiers. These Hu people, as long as they are given benefits, they are sometimes more desperate and loyal than the Zhao people!
At this moment, Queen Chu slowly walked away from the camp, followed by Mi Shu and Mi Ya, and Mi Shu was holding the little white fox and teasing.
"I've seen the Queen." Except for the king of Chu, everyone gave a salute.
"Queen, the widow is investigating who wanted to assassinate the widow, what are you doing here?" A hint of displeasure appeared on King Chu's face.
Queen Chu bowed to King Ying Ying of Chu and said softly: "The identity of this murderer has either come out, or he is from Zhao Guo. Besides, seeing that Prince Jian is still young, he doesn't look like a murderer who can come up with a murderer. Besides, Qi Chu's marriage is imminent, and this queen, as the mother of Ya'er and Shu'er, should think about their husbands. ”
When the King of Chu heard the soft voice of the Queen of Chu, his bones were crispy, and he immediately had the idea in his heart that Prince Jian could be the mastermind behind the assassins.
After all, Prince Jian is still young, he doesn't have that much courage to think about it, and he has no motive to kill, and the identity of the assassin just now has been confirmed, he is a Hu person.
"Xuan Pingyuanjun enters the camp!" King Chu said in a deep voice.
This time, I want to see if Pingyuanjun can be the same as Prince Jian, and the reason is not that he is the mastermind behind the scenes.
However, about two quarters of an hour later, the general of the Chu army ran in in a panic and shouted to the king of Chu: "Your Majesty, Pingyuan Jun and his disciples are gone, and they should flee." ”
"Escaped?" The King of Chu's face was furious, if he hadn't thought of it, he would really be a faint king.
"Your Majesty, the queen said, how could Prince Jian be a murderer? That Plains King was kind and kind-looking, but he didn't expect it to be a sinister and cunning old fox. Queen Chu said.
"Command the city gates in various places, block the city gates, and make sure that Pingyuan Jun escapes back to Zhao State." The king of Chu said hatefully.
"King Chu, then the palace will retire first. Otherwise, this outfit is insulting. Tian Jiandao.
Queen Chu glanced at Tian Jian's leather boots with exposed pantyhose and the tattered luxurious purple deep coat, and couldn't help laughing: "I didn't expect the prince to look so embarrassed." ”
Qi Ya explained to Queen Chu: "The prince met a tiger because he captured this little white fox for his daughter, and he was unharmed. ”
The king of Chu was also soft-hearted when he heard it, this prince Jian must also really like Ya'er, so he was wronged by him.
"Prince Jian, step back first!"
Tian Jian retreated and walked out of the camp.
Yang Yi, who was waiting outside the camp, was relieved to see Tian Jian come out unscathed.
Hurriedly asked, "Your Highness, are you okay?" ”
Tian Jian said casually: "It's okay, what about Wei Qing?" ”
"General Wei Qing hasn't returned yet." Yang Yi replied. But he suddenly remembered the strange conversation between His Highness and Wei Qing in the morning, and even more so that Wei Qing had not come back yet, he had some guesses in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it explicitly.
Yes, Tian Jian had no motive to assassinate the King of Chu, but assassination is not a means, who said that assassination must be dead!
Yin Zilan's guess was right, Tian Jian was in a maze, took out fake evidence to get out, and then deliberately led the target of suspicion to Zhao Guo, who said that Hu Ren must be Zhao Guo's!
However, it is still dangerous, if it weren't for the timely arrival of Queen Chu, Tian Jian might not be able to get out. It seems that Queen Chu is useless, but in fact, she is the last straw to dispel King Chu's suspicions. A soft knife can not only kill, but also save people!
What is the mystery of the last Plains King escaping?
