CHAPTER XXXVII
When I came to a lounge, the furniture in the room was complete, and it seemed that the guards were not too difficult for the soldiers.
The fourth prince looked not far away.
The rope hanging on the beam of the house, and the corpse covered with a white cloth on the ground, estimated that the person was Ding Cheng.
The fourth prince didn't care, and squatted down to look at it.
The partial generals on the side always looked at the expressions of the four princes, and saw that the four princes did not show a little fear.
I was a little surprised in my heart, the fourth prince had a polite scholarly temperament.
According to his thoughts, even if he is not frightened, he will have some fear.
As a result, when the four princes saw this picture, they could also be calm. This made him respect the Four Princes even more.
"Where's the suicide note?"
"On the table."
The general hurriedly replied, he just wanted to go and fetch it for the fourth prince.
The four princes had already taken it in their hands and looked at it.
The words are remarkably earnest, without the slightest flaw.
But it is difficult for a dying man to write his letters so neatly.
The fourth prince smiled slightly. As a calligrapher, he naturally understands that if he wants to write such a neat font, he must calm down.
The mind is not quiet, and there are more or less loopholes in the font.
Can a dying person's suicide note be written so neatly?
"At that time, he was alone in this room?"
"Yes, Lord Wang, because Ding Cheng is also a five-grade official, we arranged a separate room for him."
"When he was in the house, did he hear any unusual sounds outside?"
The fourth prince asked.
"No, Ding Cheng hasn't gone out since he entered the house, and we have sent people to guard the outside of the house.
At that time, we wanted to ask about military pay. I knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered. Sensing that something was wrong, we hurriedly broke down the door and found that Ding Cheng was dead. ”
The fourth prince heard the return of the partial general, and thought slightly.
It is more likely that Ding Cheng will be killed, and the murderer can hide his figure.
Entering and exiting the heavily guarded Royal Guard barracks, the martial arts must be extraordinary.
I just don't know if the murderer has left the barracks, but the huge barracks is not easy to search.
glanced at the suicide note in his hand.
He groaned slightly.
"This suicide note has been taken away by the king."
The general nodded yes.
"One more thing." The Four Princes spoke.
"Lord Wang, please speak."
"According to the location of this letter, where is the dug up military salary?"
After hearing this, the general said helplessly: "It was also taken away by the night walkers." They say it's evidence. It's hard for us to stop it. ”
According to his thoughts, since those military salaries have been found.
There were a few, but most of them were found. It's not too much to pay the guards of the Imperial Guards.
As a result, the nocturnal walker didn't say a word and was taken away.
Looking at his demeanor, how could the fourth prince not know what he thought.
"Don't worry, the Imperial Guard's salary will not be less at all. I will definitely send it out in its entirety today. ”
"Then borrow the king's auspicious words"
The partial general obviously didn't believe it, and the fourth prince said that he would pay the military salary, which he was convinced.
But it will be distributed today, he obviously doesn't believe it, after all, 100,000 taels of gold is an astronomical amount.
The fourth prince saw that he was a little unconvinced, but he didn't explain too much, the current Emperor Chu, that is, his father.
What a great monarch.
Otherwise, how could he be in the palace, read books, practice calligraphy, and live a leisurely life.
If Emperor Chu does not fall, the State of Chu will always be strong.
As for the next heir, he believes that his father will "cultivate" it well.
The investigation is almost over, and the fourth prince plans to leave.
Sounds of surprise came from outside the house.
"The military salary has been paid, and the secretary of the military department has personally brought people to the army."
"Your Majesty hasn't forgotten our Imperial Guard!"
"Your Majesty's Holy Name!"
......
One voice after another came, and at the moment I was excited and a little ashamed.
He was still suspicious of the words of the fourth prince just now, but it has only been a long time since the military salary came.
......
The fourth prince did not visit the military department Shangshu, because he was not familiar with the military department Shangshu, and it was also not necessary to solve the case.
Walking out of the barracks, he looked at Wei San and Wei Si who were following behind him.
Slightly groaned.
"Wei Si, you go to Ding Cheng's house and search to see if you will find anything. Also, come back with a pair of his autographed letters. ”
Wei Si hesitated a little, he glanced at Wei San, and seemed to be not very reassured.
"Don't worry, it's okay here, you go and go back quickly."
The fourth prince ordered.
"Yes, lord."
Obviously, Wei Si was a guy who was not good at words, and when he heard the final decision of the fourth prince, he arched his body.
Turning around, a dodge vanished.
At this moment, there was only one Wei San by the side of the four princes, standing respectfully aside.
Wei San looks a little thin, with a public face, it is absolutely difficult to find him in the crowd.
How to arrange Wei San is a difficult problem, after all, Wei Si is not here.
After thinking about it for a while, he decided to let Wei San put it on the open side to protect. Of course, this is necessary.
"Wei San, Wei Si is not here. You just protect me in the open. There's no need to hide. ”
"Yes, lord."
Only then did the fourth prince rest assured and estimated the time.
It has been a long time since he came to the barracks to investigate this time, and his princess should rush to the black prison at this time.
With Wei Yi's protection, there shouldn't be any big problems, but he also needs to rush over, his own princess is definitely not a loser, if something happens, it will be troublesome.
Without hesitation, the carriage on which he got up hurried in the direction of the Black Prison.
On the same way to the Black Prison, the speed of the carriage was not very fast.
Luo Ying sat in the carriage, and at the moment she was a little worried about her father.
"Princess, Wei Yi has come to protect you."
There was a slightly excited voice outside the carriage.
God is merciful, but fortunately, Luo Ying's carriage is not too fast.
Wei Yi still caught up.
I opened the curtains, looked for prestige, and saw a person standing respectfully aside.
Luo Ying looked at it for a moment and recognized the person.
It is indeed Wei Yi, in the palace, she has seen it many times.
But what does it mean to protect yourself?
With curiosity, Luo Ying asked, "Wei Yi, the prince asked you to come over?" ”
"Princess, Lord Luo is in prison, and the prince guesses that you will visit. He ordered his subordinates to come and protect him. The prince takes care of things. It will arrive soon. ”
Hearing this, Luo Ying was also a little happy in her heart, her little cabbage seemed to be quite good at caring about people.
"Okay, then you can come along."
"Yes, Princess."
Wei Yi wiped the sweat from his head, but fortunately caught up. He had a lot of strength to get here. If the prince meets the princess first, he is afraid that he will really go to raise pigs.
He never expected that the princess would know the location of the black prison from those who traveled at night.
Isn't it rumored how difficult and brutal the nocturnal walkers are?
But on second thought, the princess is an even more difficult existence to mess with!
