Chapter 288: Suspicious
Sudden change, no one expected!
A white-feathered arrow went straight into the wolf's eye, blood splattered, and it fell to the ground in pain and struggled and roared, its sharp claws grabbed the ground, and suddenly grabbed out a ravine.
Istan's face changed drastically, and he rushed towards the silver moon, but under the severe pain of the silver wolf, even he ignored him, grabbed it fiercely with one claw, and directly grabbed a few bloody cuts on his arm.
"Silver Moon! Silver Moon! Istan crazied the silver wolf and roared, and more than a dozen Aesops behind him jumped up and drew their scimitars at their waists, trying to find the enemy who had attacked the silver wolf.
In the blink of an eye, countless torches lit up around them, and the stars formed an encirclement. Countless people came on horseback, murderous, and the first person opened his bow and arrows, and attacked with an arrow again.
Lan Yuqi dodged quickly, not at all ordinary clumsy, on the ground beside him, a white feather arrow sank into the ground. If he hides a moment slower, he will die!
In the night, countless people rushed over, holding long knives, murderous.
Both Lan Yuqi and Istan were stunned, they didn't expect to kill so many people halfway. Looking at this posture, the other party has long been ready, waiting to catch them all!
The leader rode over, and a voice sounded: "So it's you?!" ”
This familiar voice, the startled Lan Yuqi and Istan were shocked, and when they looked for the sound, they saw that they were riding on the back of a horse not far away, majestic, and fully armed, and it turned out to be the second prince Lan Hongzhuo!
He took more than 30 guards from the Jingzhao Mansion, as well as the private soldiers of the Prince's Mansion, one by one holding torches, as if falling from the sky, appeared in front of everyone's eyes and surrounded them.
Lan Hongzhuo looked at the two of them with a cold gaze.
He looked at the white-clothed girl who fell to the ground, and sneered: "Sixth brother, I didn't expect it to be you, and Prince Aesop!" Not only did you collude with the spies of the Jin Kingdom, ambush the important ministers of the court, but also kidnap Xia Xiang's beloved daughter, with bad intentions, if I hadn't brought someone here, I wouldn't have discovered your conspiracy! ”
Hearing this accusation, the faces of the two changed greatly, and Lan Yuqi blurted out: "I didn't!" Second brother, you misunderstood! ”
"How can this prince have colluded with the spies of the Jin Kingdom, you have to frame this prince!" Istan was also furious, "You dare to hurt this prince's pet, I want your life!" ”
Yinyue was so easy to recover from his injuries, but he was attacked again, which made him angry!
But Lan Hongzhuo would not listen to their arguments, and said coldly: "No need to quibble, this prince has been investigating the person who ambushed the crime, and he has been thoroughly investigating for half a month, and he has already made all the arrangements and found clues." Today I brought someone to follow the suspect, but I didn't expect to find this place but meet you......"
In the darkness, an arrow suddenly shot at him.
Fortunately, Lan Hongzhuo was already vigilant and hurriedly dodged sideways, and at the same time, several people wearing Aesop's clothes rose up and swung their knives at him. In the night, several white feather arrows broke through the air, and immediately shot and killed several officials of Jingzhao Mansion.
"How dare you resist a sneak attack? He also said that you are not spies of the Jin Kingdom! Lan Hongzhuo's face was pale.
Fortunately, there were many people he brought, and everyone hugged him
, killed the three Aesops who attacked on the spot, pointed the long sword at Istan and Lan Yuqi, and said coldly: "What else do you have to say?" If you don't have a weak heart, why do you want to attack this prince! Arrest them all, and if there is resistance, kill them! ”
"Kill—" A thunderous shout of killing sounded, and a group of officials from Jingzhao Mansion rushed up, and with the cooperation of the private soldiers of the Prince's Mansion, they attacked Lan Yuqi and Istan mercilessly.
This case has dragged on for half a month, and the top is already angry, if the murderer is not caught again, they will be finished one by one. No one dared not to work hard, even if they knew that the other party was the Six Princes and the Aesop Mission, no one would spare their hands!
Lan Yuqi's heart was in turmoil, and when he saw someone in the Aesop mission sneaking up on Lan Hongzhuo, he knew that something was wrong.
Either Istan betrayed him, or he was framed. It is even possible that Aesop and Jin Guo colluded, but they have been hiding it from him. Lan Yuqi and Istan glanced at each other, he hugged the injured Silver Moon with hatred on his face, treating him as an enemy, he just felt that the alliance was solid, and it fell apart in the blink of an eye.
"It's you?" Lan Yuqi's face was extremely ugly.
"Fart, it's you!" Istan yelled.
Seeing the death of the people around him and the injuries of the wounded, although Lan Yuqi is confident that he can escape, what about after escaping? Did he admit this accusation and be wanted and imprisoned?
Suddenly, Lan Yuqi rushed towards Xia Mengyao on the ground, picked her up and shouted: "Second brother, I was wronged, I definitely did not collude with Jin Guo's spies!" Miss Xia San and I came to the garden to play, and this has nothing to do with me......"
Xia Mengyao had already fainted, freezing cold and unconscious. If Lan Yuqi takes a step slower, I'm afraid that she will be trampled to death by her feet!
Seeing Lan Yuqi surrendering, Istan secretly hated him for his scheming, and had no choice but to surrender temporarily: "Stop!" All lay down their arms. If this prince didn't do it, he didn't do it, I want to see you Emperor Daqing, no one can frame this prince! ”
He believed that he was an envoy, and he also had a marriage contract with the princess, so that Emperor Daqing would not wronged them at will. If he continues to fight, he will be injured and die by mistake, and he will bear a crime in vain.
Lan Yuqi and Istan all stopped, threw away their weapons, and were captured.
Lan Hongzhuo finally sneered: "Okay, since you all said you didn't do it, then go back with me and have a good trial!" Come on, take everyone away! ”
……
The explosive news spread like a wind in the capital.
Although it was late at night when I returned to the city, dozens of people, some were wounded, some were carrying corpses, and the officials of Jingzhao Mansion escorted so many people to pass by, and the movement also disturbed the sleeping people.
By the early morning of the next day, everyone began to discuss what had happened last night, and some well-informed businessmen and officials immediately sensitively thought of the ambush that had occurred at the palace gate a while ago. Although there were very few people who knew about it at that time, Lan Beichen had not been to the court for more than ten days, and finally the news had spread.
Finally caught the suspect, and with a special identity, Lan Hongzhuo submitted the results of the ambush in public when he was in court the next morning.
Yuan
Emperor Qing was furious and ordered a thorough investigation into who led people to ambush the Nine Princes, or whether these two people were complicit.
Under the shock of the ministers, Lan Hongzhuo also said that the people he ambushed in Honglu Temple that night also caught several suspicious people, searched for their weapons, and found that they were indeed from the Jin Kingdom.
Zuo Xiang Xia Yanxiu almost fainted, but he didn't expect that his daughter went out with the six princes yesterday, but she almost suffered a tragic fate. Fortunately, the person was fine, but he fainted from the cold, and Emperor Yuanqing immediately arranged for the imperial doctor to go to Miss Xia San to see a doctor.
But Xia Yanxiu was worried more than that, he had just discussed marriage with the six princes, but he didn't expect that the six princes would have an accident again, could he be implicated and unlucky again? He was so anxious that he didn't even have the heart to listen to what Lan Hongzhuo said later, so he couldn't wait to go back quickly and ask Meng Yao what was going on.
The ambush case, which had been thoroughly investigated for half a month, finally came to an eyebrow, and the evidence was heavy, and almost everyone doubted that it was not the Six Princes who colluded with the Aesop people, and the Aesop people secretly covered the spies of the Jin State, and stabbed the Nine Princes under strict arrangement.
Because of the involvement of the eldest prince of Aesop, Emperor Yuanqing had to consider the consequences no matter how angry he was, temporarily imprisoned the two in the prison of the Criminal Department, and ordered that confessions must be asked for three days.
……
In Penglai Pavilion, Xia Jinse was talking to Xia Junping, and when he heard that Emperor Yuanqing wanted to go to the border yesterday after knowing that his brother's injury had healed, and praised him greatly, Lan Beichen came back and said such amazing news, and the attention of the two immediately turned to this.
"It turned out to be Aesop's people, and it also involved the six princes to go in, this pool of water is very. It's deep. Xia Jinse sighed, although she had already guessed, but when the results came, she still felt shocked.
Aesop's side is just that, in recent years, the relationship with Daqing has become more and more sensitive, if the eldest prince Aesop really assists the Jin people to ambush Lan Beichen, this is also a matter of benefit to both sides, it is not impossible.
And Lan Yuqi's side was what surprised her.
After all, the usual Lan Yuqi has always been gentle and harmless, if it weren't for Lan Beichen's proposal to Emperor Yuanqing to reuse him in order to suppress Lan Hongzhuo, he was afraid that he would still be an idle Sixth Prince.
"The sixth prince has just come to prominence, and he has just married the Prime Minister's Mansion, and it is when the happy event is full of joy, he is so sneaky and mysterious, meeting with the Aesop people in the middle of the night, and making it in such a hidden place on the outskirts of the city."
Xia Junping frowned and said, "It's really suspicious." ”
Xia Jinse was noncommittal, and only said: "If it really has something to do with him, it can only be said that he is hiding too deeply, and no one can see that he has a relationship with Aesop." ”
Lan Beichen nodded: "Yes, there is basically no suspicion on the side of the eldest prince of Aesop, after all, a few Jin State spies dressed as Aesop were caught in Honglu Temple, and even weapons were searched." But Lan Yuqi has a personal relationship with Prince Aesop, which is surprising. ”
In the end, it is Fanbang, the prince of Daqing secretly befriended him, and everyone would think of plotting a rebellion.
"By the way, aren't you also investigating this case, are there any other clues, or have you found out other circumstances?" Xia Jinse looked at Shattered Star and Leng Mo, and their expressions seemed to be different
, I don't know if they have other clues on their side.
Shattered Star took a step forward and smiled meaningfully: "Sure enough, it was noticed by the princess, and her subordinates and Leng Mo did find out about the situation, but the evidence was insufficient, so the prince didn't say it." ”
It turned out that they had been following Lan Hongzhuo, and wherever he found out, they followed. On the one hand, in case there is an inadvertent loophole, on the other hand, try the yellow finch behind, not sure if you will find anything.
"Last night, the second prince took people to the outskirts of Beijing to arrest the six princes and the eldest prince Aesop, and indeed found a suspicious person. But the suspicious person first came out of Honglu Temple, and then went to the annex of the six princes on the outskirts of Beijing, and finally mixed in with the Aesop people, and then the second prince appeared to arrest him. ”
In this order, Xia Jinse and Xia Junping both wondered who those Aesop people who came out of Honglu Temple. Why don't you stay with Istanbul in the first place, and go later?
And it was sneaking in, which showed that he didn't want to be discovered, was there something wrong with the later Aesops?
Recalling the situation last night, Shattered Star said: "We didn't make a move last night, and we have been secretly checking, but the second prince's arrow shot quickly, but it really wanted the life of the sixth prince!" If he didn't see it clearly, it would be impossible to shoot so accurately, but if he saw it clearly, he would have to attack, it seems to be a problem again. ”
"The sixth prince used to be the second prince's person, if he was resentful and took the opportunity to take revenge, it was not impossible." Chasing Yun said on the side.
"In this way, it seems that the second prince also has a problem." Shoot the moon and meditate.
Lan Beichen said lightly: "So this matter is not over, now the suspect has been caught on the surface, but only after the trial will I know who is the most suspicious." ”
The investigation on Shattered Star Lengmo's side will not be made public for the time being, and Lan Beichen asked the two to continue to investigate. And Xia Jinse heard about Xia Mengyao's situation, and wanted to ask something from her mouth.
"Xia Mengyao almost died, I'm afraid I'm going to be seriously ill, I'll go back to see her later." Xia Jinse asked, "Brother, do you want to go together?" ”
