Chapter 458: Breach of Contract
Chu Yun went to the palace, not to see Xuande, but to find the eunuch, Zhao Gonggong.
Chu Yun didn't know how strong such a force was, but Xuande was able to hand over the heavy responsibility of supporting the future emperor to him, and he was obviously very confident, and some clues could be seen from it.
Although Chu Yun promised Xuande that he would not help Zhao Gou when he was fighting for the heir, Xuande also said that the force commanded by Zhao Gonggong would be handed over to Chu Yun.
At this time, Chu Yun had to use this force.
At present, there are too few clues, although the truth has not been found, and it has been impossible for Zhao Gou to settle down, Chu Yun still hopes to be able to solve the problem quickly, which requires a strong intelligence system.
The Shadow Guard didn't need Chu Yun to say that they also had a headache for such a major event as the assassination of the crown princess, and Chu Yun's own intelligence force was very weak in the capital. Because Chu Yun has always adhered to the policy of obscene development, he is worried that he is too active in the capital and will attract the attention of the big guys, so Ye Chilu has been outside the capital, silently building his own intelligence system for Chu Yun.
So much so that at this very anxious time, Chu Yun did not have his own energy to use.
It is not difficult for Chu Yun to enter and exit the palace, when Xuande introduced Zhao Gonggong to him, he also gave him a token, lest Chu Yun not be able to enter the palace if he wants to find someone.
After finding Gonggong Zhao, Chu Yun just said what he wanted to know, and Gonggong Zhao asked Chu Yun to leave the palace and wait for the news.
After that, Chu Yun went to the Shadow Guard to wander around a few times, wondering if there would be any progress on their side. This trip is still a little rewarding.
Under the search of the whole city, the Shadow Guard found several corpses in the south of the city, and on their bodies, the waist badge of the Prince's Mansion was found.
After verification, they are the shadows of the Prince's Mansion, the ones who went out with the Crown Princess yesterday.
The case seems to be gradually becoming clear, this is also a relatively important clue, the specific murder scene is locked in the south of the city, but Chu Yun feels that things are not simple.
If the guards all died in the south of the city, then why was Yan Yi found at the gate of the prince's mansion?
Although the crown princess also has a little bit of kung fu, it is estimated that that that bit of kung fu can only bully and bully Chu Yun like the five scumbags, so it is impossible for him to escape back by himself, only that after being killed, the murderer sent him to the door of the prince's mansion.
BASED ON THIS INFORMATION, CHU YUN FELT THAT HE HAD ALREADY GOTTEN THE PSYCHOLOGY OF THE MURDERER, OR THE MAIN MESSENGER BEHIND IT.
Before, the murderer's motive for the crime was not very clear, and Chu Yun couldn't conclude why the other party wanted to kill the crown princess, whether it was a vendetta, or what the reason.
But with such a discovery, the murderer's motive is obvious, and the murderer undoubtedly wants to use Yan Yi's death to defeat Zhao Gou.
Therefore, the murderer still came at Zhao Gou. Chu Yun thought that such a possibility should be the greatest before, but he couldn't confirm it.
Because once this is confirmed, the scope of the evidence of the mastermind behind the scenes is very small.
In addition to those princes, who else has the energy to kill the crown princess in the capital? And every prince has a motive to target Zhao Gou.
It is precisely because of this that Chu Yun did not dare to judge blindly, this is a very sensitive period, Xuande is seriously ill, if Zhao Gou wants to investigate several other princes in order to investigate Yan Yi's death, it will easily cause a backlash.
After all, they wouldn't really think that Zhao Gou just wanted to find out the truth, they would wonder, is Zhao Gou taking this opportunity to do something to them?
Although Chu Yun was not them, he was very able to put himself in the position of the princes.
Fun, it's a bit big.
Chu Yun had no doubt that if he had told Zhao Gou that the mastermind behind the scenes might be one of his other brothers, Zhao Gou would definitely not have any flinching, and it was even possible to take the soldiers and horses to the homes of several other princes.
But if you don't say it, with Chu Yun's ability, how can you investigate several princes, and if you don't investigate, how can you avenge Yan Yi?
The problem is here, Chu Yun wants to help Zhao Gou cheer up, but he doesn't want to make him make trouble.
All in all, it's a headache right now.
Chu Yun had no plans to go home in the evening, and on this day, he was spinning continuously. Originally, I planned to accompany Yun'er and bring Chu Shu well, but now that I encounter such a thing, I am afraid that there will not be a day of peace.
Chu Yun finally decided to go to the Prince's Mansion first to see how Zhao Gou's current situation was, and by the way, report the current progress, and say that some of his conjectures will be verified later!
When he found out which prince it was, Zhao Gou did it again, and no one could protect him.
Walking on the way to the Prince's Mansion, Chu Yun was inexplicably hit by a person, and then, he ran away quickly, but this kind of escape did not make much sense to Chu Yun, just at a glance, Chu Yun saw through his identity and name.
"Is it Zhao Gonggong's person?"
Chu Yun thought in his heart, and at the same time stretched out his hand to grope on his body, and sure enough, in his arms, he felt out a piece of paper.
"Last night, the three princes, the four princes, and the eight princes all traveled at night, and the three princes came out at the time of the unitary, returned at the time of the Xu, came out of the fourth prince, returned when they were ugly, and returned when the eighth prince came out at the time of the unitary, and returned when the son returned."
On the paper, these messages were written, which could be said to be very detailed, and Chu Yun was even more amazed at the efficiency and accuracy of the other party.
It seems that Chu Yun is not the only one who can think of the death of the crown princess and other princes, Chu Yun also adheres to the principle of bold assumptions and careful verification, and when there is no real hammer, he does not dare to mess around, but Zhao's subordinates directly locked the investigation target on other princes.
With such teammates, Chu Yun felt very comfortable, because he was relatively stable, and it didn't matter if these secret intelligence officers were wavering.
Now this information is very useful.
Among them, the suspicion of the three princes can be ruled out, because when Chu Yun and the others left from the prince's mansion, it was already past the time for the three princes to come back, Chu Yun felt that since the other party could accurately know whether all the princes went out and when they would return, it should not be so easy to be deceived.
Now the important suspects are the fourth prince and the eighth prince, among them, the eighth prince is young, although he also came out to open the mansion in advance, but ......
Although he was young, Chu Yun did not rule out his suspicion, but at present, the biggest suspect was the fourth prince.
After Chu Yun returned to the capital, he did not go to the fourth prince to take revenge, but it was not that he did not hold grudges, but that there was no good opportunity for the time being.
Of course, he will not use Zhao Gou's matter to vent his anger, but now it is indeed the fourth prince who is more suspicious, and Chu Yun's assassination is just a corroborating evidence, which proves that the four princes are indeed very hostile to the prince's camp.
Secondly, the fourth prince has this ability, don't look at the fact that he was slapped in the face by Chu Yun, this can't change the fact that he is a big guy.
It seemed that he was very favored by Xuande before, so in the hands of the four princes, there was definitely the force of the secret guard who could kill the crown princess.
In the end, it was his travel time, what did he do, why did he come back when he was ugly, it was already three or four o'clock in the morning, which was not in line with the routine of the ancients.
Four princes, the problem is very big.
Chu Yun took this note and went to the Prince's Mansion.
At this time, the Prince's Mansion has been deserted a lot, not only because the hostess here is dead, but also because the hostess is dead, and Zhao Gou has killed a large number of people.
Chu Yun vaguely smelled the smell of blood in the air, and the Prince's Mansion was very quiet now, making people feel like they had come to the Ghost Domain, and they always felt a little panicked.
Of course, Zhao Gou didn't kill everyone, but there were many people missing, and after Chu Yun made a report, he went in to find Zhao Gou by himself.
Zhao Gou was sitting in the pavilion next to the lotus pond, looking at a pool of water and some dilapidated lotus leaves, not knowing what he was thinking.
When Chu Yun saw this scene, he couldn't help but recall in his mind that at the beginning, Zhao Gou and Yan Yi were snuggling together, Zhao Gou complained about Yan Yi, and he couldn't raise a lotus flower, the two of them laughed and played, still in front of him, but now Zhao Gou was alone.
Chu Yun couldn't help but slow down, walked to the pavilion gently, and stood behind Zhao Gou, after standing still, Zhao Gou didn't reply, and said, "You're here." ”
Chu Yun was infected by Zhao Gou, and his mood was also very low, and he replied in a deep voice: "I'm here." ”
"Have you seen the withered lotus leaves of this slow pond?"
Zhao Gou still didn't look back, but suddenly asked Chu Yun this question, Chu Yun didn't wait for Zhao Gou to sit down, so he sat on the stone bench by himself, separated from Zhao Gou by a stone table. After sitting down, he replied, "I see." ”
"A good pond, but these lotus leaves to turn ugly, earlier I wanted to replant some, Yiyi is not allowed, she said, this yard of flowers, if I planted alive, doesn't it mean that her craftsmanship is not good? You say, isn't she domineering? ”
Zhao Gou smiled and talked to Chu Yun about getting along with Yan Yi, Chu Yun was silent for a while, not knowing how to answer this. He didn't know if he would make Zhao Gou hurt again if he answered it casually.
Fortunately, Zhao Gou and Chu Yun said that they didn't need Chu Yun to echo, he just suddenly wanted to speak, and it just so happened that Chu Yun also came, that's all.
"Yiyi has always told me that if there are lotus flowers and lotus leaves in this pond, it will be very beautiful."
Zhao Gou was still talking to himself, but Chu Yun finally couldn't hold back, and interrupted: "Your Highness, I came because I have something important to say." ”
"What's the matter?"
Zhao Gou was interrupted by Chu Yun, he was stunned for a moment, then returned to normal, and asked, Chu Yun said: "Today, Wu Jingxian and Brother Wu found me, saying that there are many things in the court that need to be decided by His Highness, but His Highness does not want to see them......"
"So you're here to be a lobbyist? I'm just saying that you're here to tell me if you've found something! ”
Zhao Gou didn't wait for Chu Yun to finish speaking, he finally turned his head, looked at Chu Yun squarely, with the majesty of the superior in his eyes, and said, "You know what I want to hear, say it!" ”
Chu Yun: "......"
He saw the other side of Zhao Gou again, although gloomy, but also wise.
Chu Yun has always regarded Zhao Gou as a melon skin, at noon, Zhao Gou was still on the verge of collapse, and at night it seemed that he had changed a person, and Chu Yun was also very worried in his heart.
From the time when Zhao Gou killed him, Chu Yun knew that Yan Yi's death had made Zhao Gou violent, but Chu Yun really didn't want Zhao Gou to become a murderous and vicious person. Therefore, when Zhao Gou killed someone, Chu Yun also gave up stopping it when he knew that it could not be stopped.
Because, Zhao Gou killed them for a reason, at least in terms of the values of the current society, Zhao Gou did not go too far.
What Chu Yun thought was that if Zhao Gou could vent some emotions, and after finding the murderer, he would take revenge, everything should be over, maybe Zhao Gou would have a wound in his heart that would never heal, but life would go on after all.
But now, Chu Yun found that his understanding of Zhao Gou was still too superficial.
"I investigated, the fourth prince, last night when he was ugly, he was not in the mansion, and the eighth prince came out and returned at the time. And when the time comes, it is the time when the crown princess is most likely to be killed. ”
Chu Yun can only say this, and it is a speculative statement, after all, in this era, it is not the era of science and technology, when did people die, Chu Yun is not clear, and although there are mistakes in this era, who can examine the body of the crown princess?
That's no different from looking for death.
Therefore, Chu Yun can only speculate on a period of time with a relatively large error.
When Zhao Gou heard this, he didn't ask Chu Yun where he got the news, but just said, "Fourth?" ”
Chu Yun was really worried that Zhao Gou didn't care about anything, and he would take someone to cut down the four princes, the place where the four princes live now is not far away, and Zhao Gou doesn't want a stick of incense, so he can bring people to surround the mansion of the four princes.
Chu Yun hurriedly dissuaded: "There is no conclusive evidence yet, we have to investigate clearly, what did the fourth prince do last night." ”
Zhao Gou nodded and said, "Then I'll leave it to you to do, I maybe, I can endure it for a day." ”
Zhao Gou was already clenched his fists, Chu Yun couldn't tell the difference, the Zhao Gou in front of him now was Zhao Gou who had returned to normal sanity, or Zhao Gou who had already blackened?
Fortunately, now Zhao Gou can be regarded as able to communicate, although he only gave Chu Yun a one-day deadline, Chu Yun also felt that he was satisfied enough, he was worried that Zhao Gou would not be able to control himself, and if he could not hammer the four princes to death by the time, the other princes might be difficult for Zhao Gou.
What's more, Zhao Gou is now in prison, and after Yan Yi's accident, he put down all the affairs of the court.
Based on this alone, many people have a reason to impeach him, but no one will touch this brow now.
After all, it is also the pain of losing his wife, and it is understandable that he has slacked off for a while. It is incomprehensible to put aside state affairs and indiscriminately kill each other......
