307.Chapter 307 The battle for the heir is a game

A more detailed report came back a day later. This astonishingly high efficiency is enough to show that Ji Junchen's hard work over the years has not been in vain.

However, after getting the information given by his subordinates, the panic and uneasiness in Ji Junchen's heart became more and more intense.

He found himself seemingly caught up in a whirlpool that should never be touched.

However, the situation did not allow him to shirk it.

After meeting Qianyuanji again, Ji Junchen reported the latest information: "According to investigation, the fifth prince has not gone to the imperial village of Ziwu Mountain for three months. The female assassin had been brought in by a steward of the Imperial Mansion appointed by the Five Princes, under the pretext of a relative from another place who had come to visit her relatives and was going to stay for a few days. ”

Shan seems to confirm that the female assassin was arranged by the five princes, or at least there is an inextricable connection.

But what made Ji Junchen aware of a problem was that after the female assassin incident, the butler of the Imperial Village was worried about being held accountable, so he had made an excuse at random half a day ago, packed up his things and fled.

The female assassin who carried out the assassination had appeared in the manor of the Five Princes, and the person who brought her in was also the steward of the Imperial Village appointed by the Five Princes, and now she was even more afraid of the crime and absconded...... A qiē is reasonable, but it is precisely this reasonableness that makes people suspicious!

After all, if a person escapes, it means that there is no empirical evidence for any inference, only inference!

In this case, who dares to say that the housekeeper of the Imperial Village must have been instructed by the five princes, and not who bought him and deliberately planted it?

By extension, if the five princes are really splashed with sewage, then who in the current political situation can benefit?

It could only be one person!

But whether it was Qian Yuanji or Ji Junchen, who was faintly enlightened, they didn't break the name.

"Your Majesty, do you want to order someone to send an official document to capture the emperor who escaped?"

After reporting in an objective tone without the slightest subjective feeling, Ji Junchen cautiously asked about the follow-up treatment.

Qian Yuanji sighed, waved his hand and said, "You, you probably can't find it anyway." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Ji Junchen bowed and retreated.

Before he could go far, he faintly heard the old emperor instructing his attendants: "The imperial doctor from the Chuantai Hospital came and said that I was frightened and unwell......

His Majesty the Emperor is unwell?

Ji Junchen's mind was racing, and it was almost two days since the assassination was carried out.

It was fine at the time, how could it be that you feel unwell now?

Could it be that His Majesty is ready to take this opportunity to suppress the Feng family?

Thinking of the strength of the Feng family's Shuangbi in the army, Ji Junchen probably confirmed his guess, and couldn't help but speed up the pace of leaving slightly.

……… The news of Qianyuanji's assassination caused a sensation not only in Zhongzhou.

As time went on, after a few days, it soon spread to the surrounding states and counties.

Even though the Minister of the Interior, Chen Sansheng, explained in the new issue of the newspaper that the various forces themselves have their own intelligence channels, it still caused an uproar.

However, most of the forces and local officials only know about the part that the Military Intelligence Agency and the Ministry of the Interior have made public: the female assassin was arrested after a failed assassination attempt but committed suicide by taking poison in advance, and Qianyuanji was unharmed.

The more in-depth inside story, which may involve the dispute between the five princes and the eldest prince, was suppressed by the tacit cooperation of the court.

Anyone who knows will not say it casually.

However, this matter could not be concealed from Chen Wu, who was far away in Tianlong City, Tiannan County.

In fact, the moment he received the information, his first thought was not "Qian Yuanji was actually assassinated"

, but "I didn't expect Qian Yuanji to be assassinated"

The difference in a few words makes a world of difference.

That's right, this assassination happened in the game.

Not only are the results exactly the same at the time and place, but even the details of the period are almost the same.

On weekdays, the imperial city was heavily defended, and Qian Yuanji occasionally went out of the city and the forbidden army was surrounded by the front and back, and there was no chance of assassination at all.

The 80th birthday of the old man of Fengfu is one of the only opportunities.

The Assassins seized on this and took a gamble.

Except for the fact that the result failed because of the underestimation of the Forbidden Army's defense, the whole process was actually quite successful.

However, the history of this world has been turned upside down from the game!

Not to mention Chen Wu, a variable who occupies the two counties of Songjiang and Tiannan, just saying that Wudou Midao revolted in advance, which severely damaged the empire and completely changed history.

It was for this reason that he had thought that the assassination might not happen.

Unexpectedly, the inertia of history is powerful.

Qian Yuanji still went out of the imperial city to participate in the birthday, and the assassination was also carried out.

If anything, the only thing that may be different from history is motivation.

Not the motive of the assassin, but the motive of the mastermind behind the scenes!

"Mastermind?"

Yuan Xingwei, the director of the Department of the Interior, who also reported the same newspaper, couldn't help but be stunned, he naturally didn't know the game of another world, but simply analyzed based on the secret information collected: "The assassination case is related to the five princes, but in fact it may be just the opposite, and it has something to do with the eldest prince...... The battle for succession! ”

Yuan Xingwei sighed, this kind of struggle is the easiest to shake the country's foundation, but this extremely dangerous situation has occurred more than once in the previous dynasty, and I don't know what the old emperor thinks.

Chen Wu knew the intelligence of the other world and the analysis of the vast number of players with magical powers, so he naturally knew more about this assassination case.

After listening to Yuan Xingwei's speculation, his heart moved, and he took the opportunity to test this subordinate and said: "According to your meaning, this female assassin was sent by the eldest prince and deliberately framed the fifth prince?" ”

"If you want to say that it was sent by the eldest prince, I don't think so."

Yuan Xingwei unconsciously shook the folding fan, paced back and forth in Chen Wu's study, and said little by little: "The current emperor's refusal to establish a successor is certainly related to the current turbulent situation, but there are also some factors that he may be more inclined to the fifth prince. However, it was only a tendency, and the old emperor had not yet expressed his position on any occasion. If I were the Great Prince, I wouldn't be in a hurry to use the last resort at this time - too radical and reckless. ”

"However, it is difficult to say that it has nothing to do with it at all."

"The Grand Prince had nothing to do with the Assassins, he was only aware of the Assassins' plans, and believed that the assassination would most likely not succeed. So he deliberately did not report it, and designed to take advantage of this assassination case, taking a small risk. As long as the old emperor can think that this case is related to the five princes, it may make him dispel his original idea, and then let himself obtain the throne logically. ”

This speculation is already relatively clever.

Anyone who can take one step can be regarded as a qualified senior official.

However, Yuan Xingwei is even more clever.

"There is another possibility!"

He said confidently: "If I am very sure, I am only five points sure that I think this case is related to the eldest prince." The other fifty percent are sure that the five princes deliberately did it - they framed themselves! ”

In the eyes of the old emperor, most of them can be strange inside.

Naturally, he would think that if the five princes were framed, who would benefit.

Then, use this mindset to splash dirty water on yourself!

"Very good analysis!"

Chen Wu couldn't help but clap his hands, in the game before the time travel, for a long time after the assassination appeared, players with countless sources of intelligence could only stop here.

Even the princes and the old emperor in the center of the center have not been able to go deeper than him.

"But, it's not right!"

Chen Wu showed a regretful expression on his face, which made the confident Yuan Xingwei stunned.

"Impossible!"

He subconsciously spoke: "It's not the fifth prince or the eldest prince, are there other powerful contenders for the throne?" What does the governor mean, could this really have something to do with the Omani black-clad guards? ”

"No, no, no, this matter really has nothing to do with the Black Guard."

Chen Wu smiled incomprehensibly and said: "This assassination case and the two princes, in fact, the so-called battle for the heir is just a game. No matter who the old emperor and the various forces think the female assassin has to do with it, the person in charge behind the scenes has won! "Is the battle for the heir a game? Who is so hand-eyed, and has the courage to meddle in this? Yuan Xingwei was stunned by Chen Wu's leaked news, and he couldn't come up with a real answer for a while. A reminder. Chen Wu brought out the truth of history: "You should have noticed the identity of the female assassin, right?" He was previously exiled to Wuwei County in the northwest. Who's closest to that over there? "The closest to Wuwei County?" Yuan Xingwei thought about it, and his face suddenly changed: "Baling County Longxi County!" He couldn't help but lose his voice and said, "What does the governor mean that this case is actually related to the Wudou Midao rebels?" After a short period of shock, the more he thought about it, the more likely he felt: "With the power of Wudou Midao on Baling's side, there is indeed a chance to learn about the exiled Li Guang'an's family. With them behind the scenes, it is not difficult to send the female assassin to Zhongzhou. If it is a fluke and the old prince dies, the situation in the imperial capital will be immediately chaotic, and the current predicament of Wudou Midao will be solved without a fight. Even if it doesn't work, it can be planted on the five princes and the eldest prince. No matter who is regarded as the mastermind behind the scenes, it can trigger the other party's fear and intensify the battle between the heirs! Thinking about this, Yuan Xingwei couldn't help but sigh: "What a plan to kill two birds with one stone!" "The point is, no one can guess the real murderer from it, and skillfully remove themselves from the possible suspicions. If it weren't for Chen Wu's reminder, Yuan Xingwei thought he wouldn't have thought of it. He couldn't imagine how Chen Wu could guess the truth with this bit of information, and he couldn't help but admire this young governor - worthy of being the master of destiny that he had chosen! Admiring this henchman, Chen Wu just smiled faintly. After all, it was cracked by the players together a long time after the incident before the crossing, and he just took it casually, so naturally there was nothing to be proud of. However, the only thing that made him a little complacent was that he had figured out the only differences between the two assassinations. This book is from/book/html/31/31102/
