Chapter 469: Searching the Moon Tower to find the assassin
Gu Shun pointed to the big box in front of them and motioned for Jiang Qiancheng to open it.
Jiang Qiancheng walked over suspiciously, stretched out his hand to open the box, and before he could take a closer look, he saw several people suddenly coming out of it, panting heavily, and it seemed that he had been stuffing in the box for too long.
Jiang Qiancheng frowned, glared at Gu Shun with some anger, and said angrily: "Gu Shun, what is the situation?" ”
"This is one of the surprise gifts for you," Gu Shun said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry to get angry, they are the most important witnesses in what you want to do, and they are the subordinates who ran out of the East Palace." ”
Jiang Qianbai stepped forward and took a closer look: "The descendant who ran out of the East Palace? I haven't heard of such a thing! ”
"Of course they didn't run out recently, they ran out three years ago, and they used to be close relatives of the prince, so they know a lot about the prince."
As he spoke, Gu Shun also took out a few pieces of paper and handed them to Jiang Qiancheng and Jiang Qianbai, and said proudly: "These things were written by them, and they signed and drew them, but they are very conclusive evidence!" ”
Jiang Qiancheng and Jiang Qianbai looked at the paper at the same time, their eyes changed instantly, if their identities are correct, then this evidence and them, plus those previous letters to and from Yan Kingdom, are enough to prove that the prince colluded with foreign countries and invaded the territory of the Western Jin Dynasty, which is a capital crime!
Gu Shun smiled proudly: "How is it?" I'm still very reliable this time, right? ”
"Where did you find them? Are you sure they are identified? ”
"If you don't believe it, you can ask them personally, or take them directly to the Crown Prince and see how His Royal Highness the Crown Prince reacts!"
When those people heard this, they hurriedly shook their heads, begging for mercy with a panicked expression: "Lord, don't send us to the East Palace, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely not let us go!" We are willing to testify, but we don't want to die! Please! ”
Jiang Qiancheng lowered his head and pondered for a while, then asked, "How are you going to prove your identity?" ”
Jiang Qianbai said with a smile: "It doesn't matter what their identities are, the most important thing is that Your Majesty believes that they are the relatives who ran out of the Prince's East Palace." ”
Jiang Qiancheng glanced at Jiang Qianbai and did not speak to refute.
Gu Shun pointed to another box that was much smaller and said, "In addition to these people, this box also contains other surprise gifts prepared by Yue Qingming for you. ”
Jiang Qianbai touched her chin and said with a smile: "Could it be that she has already found conclusive evidence for all the things that Yue Qingming asked to investigate before?" ”
Gu Shun opened the box with a smile, there were no people in it, and some objects, some letters that seemed to be very old, and some ornaments, all looked like ordinary things, Jiang Qiancheng took them out and looked at them carefully, and he didn't see any difference between these things.
Jiang Qianbai also walked over and took a look, these things are some years old, they feel very rough, and they don't look like things that the East Palace will have, what does Yue Qingming mean by giving these things to them?
Jiang Qiancheng and Jiang Qianbai glanced at each other, but neither of them had yet figured out what Yue Qingming meant, nor did they know what these things were used for.
Gu Shun smiled and said: "It seems that you, like me, don't know what these things are used for, the more mysterious and mysterious the Ming Mingshen, they didn't tell me what these things were, they only asked me to send the things over, saying that they would definitely come in handy in the future." ”
"Since it means more Qingming, let's keep it for now."
Shan Wu came from outside and arched his hand: "Two princes, the East Palace encountered an assassin last night, and the prince's people have now gone to Mingyue Tower, saying that they want to search the Moon Tower and look for assassins." ”
Jiang Qiancheng sneered, and said angrily: "Looking for assassins is fake, find an excuse to go inside to find Yue Qingming and Fang Kui is real!" ”
Gu Shun was a little anxious, Yue Qingming and Fang Kui were staying in Mingyue Tower now, they would be fine, right?
Gu Shun asked nervously, "Then what should we do?" Aren't you going to Mingyue Tower to help now? ”
Jiang Qiancheng said: "Don't worry, Yue Qingming will have a way to solve this matter." ”
And at this time, inside the Mingyue Building.
Ruyi stopped the prince's guards in front of Mingyue Tower, and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know why you have come to our Mingyue Tower?" ”
"Donggong encountered the assassin last night, and our people saw the assassin running this way, so they came to investigate, if you stop it, you are shielding the assassin!"
Ruyi smiled: "What is the official saying, our Mingyue Mansion is doing business in a proper manner, and it must be no problem to go in and search inside, but you have to be careful, Dong Xi here is expensive, don't break it!" ”
"Humph!" The guard waved his hand: "Go inside and search!" ”
The guards immediately swarmed in, and Ruyi followed them with a smile on her face, without the slightest intention of stopping them, and Jade quickly walked up to her and nodded lightly to her.
The prince's people searched the front and back of Mingyue Tower, but they didn't find any clues related to Yue Qingming at all, and they didn't even see the slightest trace, as if Yue Qingming didn't live here at all.
Ruyi kept a smile on his face and walked up to the head of the guards, and said, "Official, I said that we won't hide assassins in Mingyue Tower, and now that you have searched clearly, can you continue to let us open the door for business?" ”
The leader of the guards frowned, and looked around with a puzzled expression, he had received news that Yue Qingming was clearly in the Mingyue Tower, why did he come in and look for it for so long and didn't see a figure? Did you run away because you received the news in advance?
He waved his hand again and said sharply, "Let's withdraw!" ”
The prince's guards quickly evacuated the Mingyue Tower, and Jade took people to carefully inspect the Mingyue Tower, and after making sure that all those people had left, he nodded to Ruyi, and then continued to open the door to do business.
Ruyi, on the other hand, walked to the room in the backyard where Yue Qingming was always there, walked to the edge of the bed, lifted the quilt and gently knocked on the bed: "Miss, the prince's people have left, you can come out." ”
As soon as Ruyi's words fell, the seemingly ordinary bed suddenly moved, the dark grid activated, and the entire bed surface moved back, revealing the secret room passage hidden underneath.
Yue Qingming came out first, patting the dust on his clothes, and Fang Kui followed closely behind.
Ruyi smiled and said, "Fortunately, Miss prepared a secret room during the renovation before, and now it can be regarded as coming in handy!" ”
Yue Qingming said lightly: "Don't be in a hurry to be happy, the prince's people suddenly came to search, who must have revealed the news to him, carefully investigate the people who came in and out of Mingyue Tower, and see who exposed our traces!" ”
"Yes!"
