Chapter 58: Betrayal

Gu Huanyi got closer to Li Congxin and asked quietly, "Could it be Li Chengxu who did it?" ”

Li Congxin said: "Eight or nine is not far from ten." The emperor was furious and ordered Brother Wu to lock the palace door and strictly investigate, and I came back later. ”

Wu Lie...... If he is Li Chengxu's person, I'm afraid he hasn't found anything, right?

Gu Huanyi looked at Li Congxin, thinking about what to say about his brother-in-law's problem, but looking at his face, she felt that Li Congxin's mood was a little wrong.

Even though he didn't find the person who killed Concubine Zhen, Concubine Zhen's mother and son were safe, and Li Chengxu's plan did not succeed, but why did he look very uncomfortable?

She rarely saw Li Congxin unable to control her emotions in this kind of matter, so she asked, "Shizi, are you unwell?" ”

Li Congxin looked very tired and weak, and stretched out his hand to Gu Huanyi and said, "Let me hold it for a while." ”

Gu Huanyi noticed that he was unusual, and obediently threw himself into his arms.

Li Congxin hugged her tightly, and after a long while, he let out a long sigh and asked in a sad tone: "Huanyi, have you ever been betrayed by someone you trust?" ”

Listening to his question, do you already know?

Gu Huanyi cautiously asked, "Is Brother Wu Li Chengxu's person?" ”

Li Congxin nodded and laughed at himself: "How do you know?" You can see it after seeing him a few times, but I've been deceived by him for years! I was thinking before, why did I know that Li Chengxu had done a lot of evil, but I never found any evidence? Every time it was a strange move, he took the lead. It turned out that the person I trusted the most turned out to be his eyeliner! ”

Gu Huanyi said with relief: "It is precisely because you have been friends with him for many years that you will be deceived by him, I am not familiar with him, and I will notice the problem when I look at him equally." ”

Gu Huanyi told Li Congxin about the smashing of the Qilin Society, and Li Congxin's mood sank even further.

He has been in the palace today, and he doesn't know about it yet.

Gu Huanyi asked, "How are you sure that Wu Lie is Li Chengxu's person?" ”

Li Congxin heard Gu Huanyi talk about the rumors of someone leaking yesterday, although he was suspicious of Wu Lie at that time, he and Wu Lie had been brothers for six years, and he didn't want to wronged him, so he planned to use the family banquet and the matter of Concubine Zhen to test him.

Li Congxin's manpower in the capital, most of the four of their righteous brothers are known.

But there are two informants, Wu Lie doesn't know.

One is Yang Xin, and the other is Ling'er, the palace maid next to Concubine Zhen.

Yang Xin was placed by Li Chengxu's side in Liangzhou, Wu Lie didn't know about it, Li Congxin didn't feel the need to tell him, and he didn't deliberately mention it.

Last night, Li Congxin asked Yang Xin to spy on the relationship between Li Chengxu and the West Factory, and Yang Xin said to be accurate that Li Chengxu has important chess pieces in the West Factory, and has been in business for many years, so he is very trusted.

Although there are a lot of people in the West Factory, because of rotation, expatriate assignment and other things, there are not many people who can talk about the people who have been operating in the West Factory for many years, and they can be counted on one hand, and Wu Lie is one of them.

And the palace maid Ling'er is the palace maid who choked the little prince of Concubine Zhen to death in her previous life, she was originally Li Chengxu's person, but as early as when Concubine Zhen was pregnant, Li Congxin grabbed Ling'er's weakness and coerced her into rebellion.

Before the palace banquet on the Shangyuan Festival, Li Congxin got news from Ling'er, saying that the prince of Xianwang was going to design to burn Concubine Zhen.

Sure enough, as Ling'er said, but Concubine Zhen was hit by a burning lantern.

In the eyes of ordinary people, they may think that this kind of thing is extremely coincidental, but for martial arts masters, it is not difficult to break the lantern lanyard in the air and let Concubine Zhen fall in a "panic".

And Wu Lie just at the banquet, he rejected Li Congxin's invitation and left the table early.

One or two coincidences may just be psychological evidence, not evidence of Wu Lie's betrayal, but Wu Lie has returned to Beijing for just half a month, and there have been three coincidences, so Li Congxin has to face up to the fact of Wu Lie's betrayal.

This is also Li Congxin's last chance to give Wu Lie.

was betrayed by the sworn brothers, and Li Congxin was quite devastated.

He recalled many things in his previous life, and suddenly realized why he and Gu Huanyi's plot of revenge was leaked, and why Gu Huanyi was arrested by Li Chengxu, it turned out that it was all because of this good big brother by his side!

Gu Huanyi saw that Li Congxin became more and more angry the more he thought about it, and his eyes were red, afraid that he would really be angry and have an accident, so he said: "You and Cui Shizi and Ying Gongzi are born and die, and they escaped from Changzhou together, and the brotherly relationship is naturally indestructible." Wu Lie came to the rescue as a brocade guard, and he had the grace to save your life, so you trusted him very much. But he may have been a virtuous king at that time, and you were too young to tell the difference, and there was nothing he could do if he deceived him for many years. Let's see through his true colors at this time, it's not too late, don't be angry. ”

Li Congxin nodded, Wu Lie should have been the person of King Xian many years ago, not so much that he betrayed himself, but that he had never been loyal to himself.

Li Congxin laughed at himself mockingly, got up and said, "It's time to settle the accounts for many years." ”

Gu Huanyi said nervously: "Shizi, don't do things when you're angry, you must calm down and think twice." ”

Li Congxin stroked her hair and said, "Don't worry, I won't impulsively go to him to confront him." ”

Li Congxin's tone was calm and cold, and her eyes were as deep as she had never seen before.

Now that Wu Lie is a person who knows that he is a virtuous king, many things are like breaking away the dark clouds and seeing the blue sky, and there are new clues.

What has he done for King Xian over the years?

Li Yuhe's death, the fall of the Gu family's army, does Wu Lie also have a part?

Li Congxin has to find out one by one.

Gu Huanyi was very uneasy and said: "Have you ever thought that if you publicized Wu Lie's crimes to the public, the emperor would most likely suspect you, after all, you have been a brother and sister to him for so many years, and instead of believing that he is the person of the virtuous king, everyone will think that he is your person." As...... It's better to get rid of him secretly, and it can be regarded as breaking one of the arms of King Xian and Li Chengxu. ”

Li Congxin shook his head: "If he dies in an unknown way, the crimes of King Xian's father and son will also be buried with his death." Although I have been deceived by him for many years, I will make him die clearly! ”

Looking at Li Congxin like this, Gu Huanyi felt worried, but he didn't know what to say.

Li Congxin noticed that she was picking her fingers very uneasily, reached out to hug her, and said, "Don't worry, I still have to take care of you, and I won't let myself have an accident." ”

Gu Huanyi hugged him tightly and said, "It's good if you know!" ”

However, a few days later, Wu Lie was imprisoned in Dali Temple for dereliction of duty, and many rumors came out of the palace and outside the palace for a while.

On the surface, the emperor was angry because of the burning of Concubine Zhen, and wanted to thoroughly investigate the palace guards and the Xichang Jinyi Guard, but Wu Lie had no motive to harm Concubine Zhen, and he must be someone else's scapegoat.

As for who it is for, everyone guesses that Li Congxin is the majority.

Although he said before that he didn't want to be an heir, but whether it is true or false, who can say for sure?

On the contrary, it was Concubine Zhen's pregnancy that blocked Li Congxin's road to heaven, and everyone saw it clearly.

Li Congxin's situation took a turn for the worse, and Gu Huanyi saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart.
