On the other side, the palace is on the throne.

From Gu Yutang entering the palace, the emperor was not in a hurry to let him report the assassin, but only let Gu Yutang stand aside and listen to the third prince explain his itinerary for the whole day yesterday.

According to Li Zhisen, the reason why he appeared in the Nanjun Lord's Mansion last night was because he was thinking about the birthday of the Nanjun Lord, so he rushed back to Kyoto just after finishing the trivial matters in the east of the city, but he didn't expect that he would be assassinated by such a coincidence.

"According to your meaning, the assassination of the Southern County Lord has nothing to do with you? Then how did Han Chi find the imprint of the costume of the secret guard of your mansion at the scene of the assassin's murder? The emperor said, throwing the evidence presented by Han Chi to the feet of Li Zhisen under the seat.

Li Zhisen leaned over slightly to pick it up, looked down at it, and said in a straight tone: "Back to my father, this is a framing with inferior means, and the son has no motive to assassinate Sister Xinzhu." ”

The emperor flipped through the folds in his hand, opened them one by one and closed them several times, and said, "But I heard that you have been investigating the 'Southern Formation Map' in the hand of the Southern County Lord recently?" ”

Li Zhi still said calmly: "Erchen only heard about it a little, and he didn't inquire about it. ”

"Is that so?"

"Yes."

The emperor looked at the crown prince standing at the front and asked, "What does the prince think?" ”

The crown prince looked as gentle and frugal as ever, and when he heard the emperor's question, he bowed his head slightly and replied softly: "Erchen thinks that the third brother is not that kind of person. ”

"What you think or don't think is your own subjective thoughts, and there is no practical reference value." The emperor smiled faintly, and finally called Gu Yutang out, "King Han Jun said that the little marquis didn't catch the assassin who committed last night?" ”

Gu Yutang said truthfully: "Yes." ”

"Then little Hou Ye, do you think the murderer has anything to do with Zhisen?"

Gu Yutang knew very well that what the emperor said to the prince just now was just taking the opportunity to alert himself, so he just said calmly: "Before the murderer is caught, Weichen does not dare to make a judgment. ”

The emperor finally raised his eyebrows slightly, closed the fold, and made a decision: "Okay, then let Dali Temple investigate this matter, and always give an explanation to the lord of Nanjun." ”

Everyone in the palace understood that His Majesty the Emperor's implication was that this matter had just passed, and they should not let go of the three princes.

After coming out of the palace, Han Chi stopped Gu Yutang and asked him if he wanted to visit Lu Xinzhu.

Gu Yutang refused without much thought, and only said that he would ask his subordinates to come over to greet him.

If this was before yesterday, he might have gone over with Han Chi, but after Lu Xinzhu said something like that to him, Gu Yutang knew very well that he would have to keep his distance no matter what from now on.

In the past two days, there has been news from an informant in the Southern Xia Kingdom, saying that there are some abnormal movements in Southern Xia during this time, and a large number of troops are stationed outside the border line, and it is very likely that they will send troops at the critical juncture of the New Year.

Su Chen gritted his teeth with hatred for this, especially in the past two days, he had to dangle in front of Gu Yutang from time to time - "Do you say that there is something wrong with this Nanxia, it looks like the New Year is coming, isn't it good to let the soldiers have a stable New Year before fighting?" It's okay now, we have to be on guard. ”

Gu Yutang was telling the deputy general to set up a few fortresses, and after listening to Su Chen wandering around beside him for a long time, he finally said, "It won't necessarily be a fight." It's not like you've never used tactics to disrupt the morale of the military. ”

Hearing this, Su Chen sneered lightly: "Then Yutang, let me tell you, Nanxia is afraid that this is to disturb his own military heart." ”
