Chapter 328: The Assassination of the Princess (6)
In the after. Palace, Li Shimin met with the bad handsome man with a mask.
"How's it going?" Li Shimin asked.
The bad marshal took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty, I already have eyebrows, we don't know how the military bow and crossbow flowed outside, but the matter of poison is already eyebrows." ”
Because there are too many channels for bows and crossbows to flow out, although the power of the bad guys is still huge, it is impossible to find out so quickly. Ancient bows and crossbows are like firearms in later generations, although ordinary people can't get them, but many people with a certain amount of strength want to get them very easily. So it's very difficult to investigate, and the bad guys don't have any clues. So, the bad guys are targeting the outflow of poison, so maybe the search area is smaller.
"Well, how did the poison get out?" Li Shimin asked.
The bad marshal replied: "Actually, the matter is not so complicated, someone stole the private seal of Xue Wanjun, the young eunuch in the palace, and then forged a letter, asking the original palace eunuch Dou Lukuan to go to the teahouse outside to discuss the matter." Dou Lukuan saw the letter sent to him by his deputy, and he didn't suspect it for a while, but he went out. As a result, he seemed to have been hit by someone on the road, and the seal on his body was lost, but he soon found it on the street. At that time, he was the thief who didn't dare to take the seal of the government, so he threw it away casually, and he didn't have too many ideas. He also thought that he had met a little thief who was greedy for money, and he didn't care much. But he didn't know that people might have calculated or not, and in less than a quarter of an hour when his seal was lost, someone took the seal to change a seal, and the last official document came out. In this way, relying on this official document, someone successfully took out the poison from the Provincial Pharmacy in the palace. I went to find the man who had gone to get the poison, but he was missing and missing. ”
"Huh? Why did he take this extra step to steal Xue Wanjun's seal letter and transfer that Dou Lukuan out? Li Shimin asked.
The bad guy replied: "According to my guess." Maybe they are not very familiar with Dou Lukuan, so they can't know the rules of Dou Lukuan's life. So he stole Xue Wanjun's seal in one fell swoop, and then was deceived by him to the designated place. This has two advantages, the first is that the time of Doulukuan's appointment can be determined, and the route can also be predicted. So, everything went according to their script. ”
"Good! One ring after another, and in the end, someone actually came to the palace to take away the poison. You mean, has someone planted all the spies in our Tang Palace? You're dereliction of duty! Li Shimin said angrily.
The bad handsome didn't dare to answer, because he knew that he was really a little derelict in his duties this time, and he actually asked people to install spies in the palace. Isn't that very dangerous? It is not known how many enemy spies there are in the palace now, and this is obviously a dereliction of duty.
"Okay, according to what you said, they stole Xue Wanjun's seal, does An mean that they are very familiar with Xue Wanjun? However, I believe that Xue Wanjun will not betray me. Xue Wanke was my old minister when I sneaked from the Qin Palace, and he would not betray me. Li Shimin said affirmatively.
"Your Majesty, the minister also thinks so, but the other party's people must be by Xue Wanjun's side. Otherwise, you won't be able to get Xue Wanjun's seal. But ......" Bad Shuai hesitated.
"But what?" Li Shimin asked.
Bad Shuai immediately replied: "Now my biggest doubt is that I have been investigated, and there is no suspicion that anyone who can often contact Xue Wanjun!" ”
"Why is there no suspicion?" Li Shimin asked.
"None of them have a motive! Because Princess Wanchun is dead, nothing good will do them any good. So why would they bother? They have no motive, so why should they help someone else to kill? Moreover, I checked their backgrounds, the people behind them, or relatives and friends. Even the lords who served in the past could not benefit from this matter. Therefore, there is no need for them to kill Princess Wanchun, there is no reason at all. Bad Shuai said.
"Hey. It's really evil. No motivation, no way! If you don't have a motive, you shouldn't kill someone! Li Shimin thought.
Li Shimin really felt very weird, if there was no motive, why would he assassinate Princess Wanchun. Whether in ancient times or in later generations, criminals must have a motive for killing. If there is no motive, then why kill. In the Hereafter, if there is not sufficient motive, it is not possible to determine that a person has committed a crime. Therefore, this time, the people around Xue Wanjun had no motive, and even the lord they served in the past had no motive to kill Princess Wanchun to gain benefits.
In the Tang Dynasty, there were many people who had followed several lords, which is not surprising. Therefore, this bad handsome also screened the people who could get close to Xue Wanche, and even checked the lord they worked for in the past, but they did not find the other party's motive for killing Princess Wanchun. Without a motive, it's really no clue at all.
"Who is the best friend of killing Princess Wanchun?" Li Shimin asked.
The bad handsome said directly: "In terms of the goal, it seems that Princess Wanchun is dead, which is the best for the emperor!" Because Princess Wanchun's biological father, Li Hun, was indirectly killed by the Emperor Taishang, so ......"
"What do you say! I don't know if I did it? Li Shimin said angrily.
The bad handsome immediately said: "The minister is just talking about the matter, at present, it is impossible for the other party to kill Princess Wanchun for money, and Princess Wanchun will not have a grudge." As for the love killing, it is even more out of tune, after all, the few women Chen Fei knows, we have also checked once, and it is impossible for them to have the strength to murder Princess Wanchun. Therefore, love killing is not very tenable. Therefore, on the whole, it means that no one will know about the of Princess Wanchun and the Emperor Taishang, and then want to take the opportunity to blame the emperor. ”
"Good! actually let me carry the black cauldron, I really obeyed him! Li Shimin said.
"Your Majesty, there is one more thing to say. From the time Princess Wanchun herself knew that she was not the biological daughter of the Emperor Taishang, to the time he was assassinated, it took less than two days. Scheduling an assassination in two days is quite efficient. I'm afraid that we may not be able to do it. Therefore, the only thing that is certain is that they have someone in the palace, and they quickly found out that Princess Wanchun is not the biological daughter of the emperor, so they are quickly ready to start. You must know that even the officials outside don't know about it, but they do. That means that there are people in the palace, and they are still able to go in and out often. The people of the palace. If so, then your ...... the emperor"
"I understand, it seems that I am going to clean the entire Taiji Palace!" (To be continued......)
