Chapter 407: Fake Becomes True
So the question is, what now? Others don't know, but he does!
It was not Chu Yun who really didn't know whether he was alive or dead, but the Seven Princes!
Chu Yun was just stunned for a moment, and then quickly came to his senses, and at the same time, he was also very glad that his current appearance was still disguised as the Seventh Prince, and some of the seals of the Seventh Princes were not carried with him, but were kept by special officials, so as long as he didn't say it, he could replace the identity of the Seventh Prince now!
This is also his only way to live, and now it can be basically determined that the Seventh Prince should be dead, of course, Chu Yun can also ask for a miracle, that is, if the son of destiny is not dead. But the possibility of this is too small, if that is the case, it will not be too late for Chu Yun to change his identity back with him.
But at present, continuing to disguise himself as the Seventh Prince is the only choice for Chu Yun to live.
Otherwise, Chu Yun would have committed a capital crime! Although his original intention of swapping identities with the Seventh Prince was good, he wanted to block a knife for the Seventh Prince, but the fact is that the Seventh Prince he disguised escaped from the assassin's tracking without danger, and Chu Yun, who was disguised as the Seventh Prince, fell into a situation where he could not see the life or death and the corpse, as long as Chu Yun dared to tell the truth, he would be beheaded.
Moreover, when Chu Yun decided to continue to disguise himself as the Seventh Prince, he also thought about how to deal with the rest of the matter by the way. If the Seventh Prince is not dead, then after finding him, change his identity back, if the Seventh Prince is dead, then "Chu Yun" must be dead or alive!
Because it is impossible for Chu Yun to give up his identity, although he lives as the seventh prince, he may be able to easily seek a throne and a beautiful girl to warm the bed, but these are not what Chu Yun wants.
Because he lives as the Seventh Prince, he has no chance with Wu Yun'er at all.
Therefore, Chu Yun's plan is to mix with the Seventh Prince for a period of time as the Seventh Prince, and then let the "Seventh Prince" die of a serious illness, and then he will return to China as Chu Yun.
Now, Chu Yun has begun to write screenplays, such as how he went through the catastrophe before he was finally able to save the day or something.
At this time, the other onlookers looked at Chu Yun with sympathy in their eyes.
Chu Yun felt the change in the atmosphere and couldn't help but wonder, what kind of trouble were these people making of? But when she turned her head and looked at Li Xiuli, who was crying, she suddenly understood something.
It turned out that he had a green hat on his head......
Chu Yun's mood is very complicated, although he also knows that he and Li Xiuli are innocent and have nothing to do with it, but in the eyes of others, Li Xiuli, the future wife of the Seventh Prince, cried so sadly for another man, this is ......
Therefore, in their eyes, Chu Yun's head should be green, but Chu Yun said that even if it is a green hat, how should this green hat be counted? Did you wear it yourself?
Chu Yun quickly straightened his mentality, he was now the Seventh Prince, not Chu Yun, so he had to stand in the position of the Seventh Prince.
He quickly adapted to this role, and said with a cold face: "This king knows, this king will ask someone to find Chu Yun, and the princess will do it herself." ”
These words really vividly expressed the anger of the Seventh Prince as a man and the reserve of the royal family, and Li Xiuli also cooperated to stop crying, as if she realized for the first time that she shouldn't get too close to other men, and said ashamedly: "I'm sorry......"
Chu Yun didn't respond to her, and summoned the remnants to return to Liren Cliff, but at this time, the county commander Zhang Qian came out, and it just so happened that he had also written a memora and was ready to ask someone to quickly pass it to the Jingshi, and when he saw that the "Seven Princes" actually took it and returned to the dangerous place, he immediately panicked.
"Your Highness, please think again! The thief doesn't know how much else there is, how can His Highness put himself in danger? It is enough to leave the work of saving people to his subordinates, and General Ren's soldiers and horses must come at sunset, so His Highness should rest for a good time. ”
Zhang Qian was also panicked, for fear that something would happen again, so he knelt in front of Chu Yun and said something sincerely, almost hugging Chu Yun's thigh to let her not leave.
When Chu Yun heard this, he didn't forcibly move his steps, with the character of the Seven Princes, he really should have a good rest now, and the matter of finding someone and leaving it to others to do is already benevolent and righteous.
So, Chu Yun also listened to Zhang Qian's persuasion and did not go back to find someone in person. In fact, there is no meaning in his own past, if the Seventh Prince dies, he will also pick up a corpse in the past. If he didn't die and needed to be rescued, Chen Tao and others had also taken the lead before.
In short, he can't do a lot of things, just do nothing, lie down and rest for a while!
Zhang Qian ordered someone to clean up a room for Chu Yun to rest, Chu Yun was indeed tired, he spent a lot of energy last night, which was equivalent to a sleepless night, and he was still running around, until now, Chu Yun's eyes were a little painful.
Lying on the bed and taking off the headband, Chu Yun quickly fell asleep.
When encountering such a big thing, Chu Yun can still sleep soundly, which is also a kind of ability. But there is no way to do it, the spirit is too sleepy, and only sleep can make up for it.
When I woke up again, it was already dark, Ren Dong's mistake had already been driven to Jiangyuan County, and the commander of the troops was Ma Teng, a junior general under Ren Dong, and Ren Dong was a general, so naturally he could not leave Guizhou without permission, especially when Daxia and Yan were still at war.
But the assassination of the Seventh Prince was also a particularly big event, so he asked his henchmen to lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to rush to the aid of Jiangyuan County after receiving the news.
These 3,000 soldiers and horses are now the power to protect the Seven Princes for the time being. As soon as Chu Yun opened his eyes, he saw that there were already several people standing in the room, namely the county commander Zhang Qian, the shadow guard Chen Tao, the county lieutenant Liu Ran, and the young general Ma Teng who had just arrived.
Chu Yun woke up, and without waiting for them to speak, he asked first, "Have you found Chu Yun?" ”
Chen Tao shook his head, when they received the order to go out, they didn't know that Chu Yun was in danger, so they went straight to the place where Chu Yun said that the battle took place, and urgently collected some evidence, and many clues had been destroyed. For example, the bow and arrow that Chu Yun said.
Most of the bows and arrows were taken away, fortunately, because there were too many arrows shot, and the other party always didn't collect them, so the small tail was left, as for the assassins who were killed, the bones were not found, but they found traces of burning, obviously, this time the assassins, and a team to clean up the aftermath, burned their dead companions, so as not to reveal their identities, this is the simplest and most crude method.
The above are the clues that Chen Tao collected in one day, and almost all the clues left, back in the county, Chen Tao and the others knew that Chu Yun did not know whether he was alive or dead.
I don't know if I am dead or alive, isn't it just dead?
But the people present didn't dare to say this fact directly when they saw that the "Seven Princes" were so concerned about Chu Yun, and Liu Ran cried: "Your Highness is so concerned about Lord Chu, the first thing you do when you wake up is to ask him for comfort, if Lord Chu knows, he will definitely be grateful." ”
Chu Yun: "......"
Chu Yun's reaction was not obvious, but others felt that this Liu Ran was simply too witty. Zhang Qian also hurriedly touted it, and said it to the sky.
In fact, Chu Yun just asked casually.
However, after being mixed up for so long, Chu Yun finally felt the atmosphere of officialdom, and it seemed to be the law of survival to slap the horses of the superiors.
However, Chen Tao and Ma Teng didn't say anything, it was completely Zhang Qian and Liu Ran who seemed to be talking cross talk.
Chu Yun waved his hand to stop their praise, and said to Zhang Qian: "Can the documents be sent to Jingshi?" ”
"Back to Your Highness, it has been sent."
"Then this is good, this king will stay in the county seat for a few days, waiting for his father's will."
What Chu Yun said is very reasonable, they have encountered such a thing, how to deal with it next, of course, they have to listen to the emperor, the officials are all dead, how can they marry Xichuan in this way, as the prince, at this time, they must first consider a question of etiquette.
The marriage of the prince cannot be neglected, so Chu Yun still needs to wait for the imperial court to make up some ceremonial officials before he can continue to set off for Xichuan.
Or, maybe it's possible that the marriage doesn't have to be consummated.
encountered this kind of thing on the road, this marriage can be said to be very unlucky, so how to deal with it, it still depends on the opinion of the leader, and the marriage between the two countries cannot be sloppy.
These reasons are all tenable, Chu Yun wants to stay here in the past, but his real purpose is, of course, to consider himself.
Of course, Chu Yun knew that the assassination was not simple, if it was only handed over to the shadow to deal with, Chu Yun would always feel not so relieved, not that he doubted their ability to do things, but that this kind of thing would always be better if he personally participated in it.
It is determined that you want to stay in Jiangyuan County for a while, and the next thing to do is naturally handed over to the relevant personnel, Zhang Qian, who is responsible for solving the accommodation as soon as possible, this is just here, you can deal with it casually for the time being, but if you live for a long time, you can't always let the princess or prince live in his county office! 、
However, in the southwest region, the economy is not particularly developed, Zhang Qian had to discuss with the best innkeeper in the county, the inn does not accept outside guests for the time being, and comes to live for Princess Xichuan and the Seven Princes, as well as Ma Teng's soldiers, who are now stationed in the city and guarding near the inn, so many people's eating and drinking is also a problem.
Fortunately, Zhang Qian does not have to pay for this expenditure by himself, the imperial court, or the king of Shu, will be responsible.
It is estimated that even if they settled down like this, on the second day, Chu Yun and Li Xiuli both moved into the inn and began to wait for the will of the imperial court.
According to preliminary estimates, it could arrive in seven days at the earliest.
However, the additional officials of the Ministry of Rites may be late, perhaps, they will have to live here for half a month. This time is also enough for Chu Yun to investigate some things.
I don't know a lot of information, but it's not much.
One, the Assassins, in fact, are an army. The problem is that he doesn't know where this army belongs, and Chu Yun feels that it is more likely to be the army of Great Xia.
Second, the backstage of the main messenger is very large, at least it can make a nearby city willing to cover for these assassins, otherwise, it is impossible for so many people to move and no one in the vicinity will notice.
Therefore, this point proves that the mastermind behind the scenes is very likely to be someone from Great Xia.
This was the only information that Chu Yun could deduce based on the existing situation, and there were many things that he had no way of knowing.
For example, the purpose of the assassins.
Princess Xichuan said that there were more enemies tracking on their side, which caused the team to be scattered, so the main target of the assassins was Princess Xichuan?
Who would be more beneficial to kill Princess Xichuan? It stands to reason that since the Seventh Prince left another country, he is no longer involved in the domestic interest chain, and there is no reason to be targeted by the people of Great Xia, and the same is true for Li Xiuli.
Or, the army that stabbed was from Xichuan and was Li Xiuli's political enemy? Chu Yun felt that this possibility was also very great.
It's just that this answer is inconvenient to go to Li Xiuli to collect evidence, although they are now an unmarried couple, their relationship is not very friendly.
Thinking of Li Xiuli, Chu Yun suddenly remembered that the Seven Princes and the people suspected of Xia Ying had all reminded him to be careful of Li Xiuli. Chu Yun still didn't suspect that Li Xiuli actually wanted to kill him, but he still had some doubts about Li Xiuli's statement.
He felt that with the cleverness of the Seven Princes, he should know how to escape with the most core person, and Li Xiuli's previous performance was also in a good relationship with "Chu Yun", so when the Seven Princes fled, the location should also be in the core area.
The one who was affected and scattered must be the marginal area, since Li Xiuli at the core did not have an accident, why were the Seven Princes scattered? It is impossible for those guards to let him escape from the position behind the palace at will when they brought the Seventh Prince over, this is obviously a problem.
Chu Yun urgently needed some evidence, and based on his guesses alone, he couldn't get an answer at all.
Another day passed, and the Shadow Guard's investigation had not yet come out, so Chu Yun immediately decided that he would investigate it himself!
In fact, he had this idea for a long time, but the timing was not good, on the third day of the case, Chu Yun called Ma Teng and Chen Tao early in the morning, and then went to Li Xiuli's team to borrow two or three guards to lead the way, and then set off towards Liren Cliff.
This time, Zhang Qian could no longer stop him, because of Ma Teng's protection, and the combat effectiveness of this army was much higher than that of the previous team.
However, the team came to the Valley of Broken Intestines, and suddenly the wind and clouds changed color, and a heavy rain came unexpectedly!
Chu Yun looked up at the sky and felt that he could give himself a cool song, this was probably fate!
The majestic rain hit the soldier's armor, and Chu Yun's clothes were also wet in an instant.
He didn't travel in a sedan chair, that's why he was so embarrassed.
But he couldn't feel the cold on his body anymore, because his heart was cold.
A heavy rain is enough to wash away all the evidence, and all traces may not exist. I'm afraid there is no chance to solve this mystery......
