Chapter 566: The Palace's Doubts
Rongwang's Mansion.
It was getting dark.
Wen Ling pretended to be a maidservant and followed Rong Qing to King Rong's Mansion, but unfortunately, the guests of King Rong's Mansion had not finished leaving.
There was one person, none other than Prime Minister Du.
In front of the mourning hall, there is also a pillar that burns one-third of the incense.
Du Zhong stood in front of the mourning hall and looked at the coffin for a long time. It's contemplative, it's complicated.
"Prime Minister." Rong Qing was also very surprised, "My lord came to see the young master." ”
Wen Ling followed behind him, standing aside and standing with the guards beside him, but it was not conspicuous, and he did not get Du Yong's attention.
"Yes...... Prime Minister Du nodded, turned his head to look at the coffin, and said solemnly, "This official also grew up watching His Royal Highness the Second Highness, and this official just suddenly felt a little emotional." I remember that when I was a child, His Royal Highness often followed me and asked me if he would be as good as His Highness in the future. All along, His Royal Highness has been extremely respectful of His Highness. ”
Rong Qing listened silently and did not answer.
Prime Minister Du sighed heavily, looked at the spirit card and said abruptly, "Princess Chang'an has waited for Her Royal Highness for so long, originally after Her Royal Highness returned to Mocheng, she would be able to marry the princess, but now she has forcibly dismantled a pair of mandarin ducks. ”
As he spoke, Prime Minister Du looked at Rong Qing.
Rong Qing hurriedly said, "Prime Minister Du is serious, the princess is here to eat for harmony, and now it will be sealed, the prime minister still don't listen to others, His Royal Highness and the princess have always been innocent." ”
Prime Minister Du smiled, approached Rong Qing and patted him on the shoulder.
"Outsiders don't know, you don't know yet, you are the one who has served His Royal Highness for a long time, if His Royal Highness and the princess have no friendship, how can they send you to protect the princess, it's just ......a pity," Prime Minister Du said halfway, "Your Royal Highness has been wronged......
As soon as he said this, Rong Qing's face became extremely heavy.
Then he looked up at Prime Minister Du, "Prime Minister, what does this mean?" ”
Du Zhong looked at Rong Qing in a complicated manner, and said in a low voice, "I heard that it was the blood servant who attacked the eldest prince, but hasn't the blood servant always been in the hands of the eldest prince?" The eldest prince is thoughtful, could it be that his subordinates betrayed him? ”
Rong Qing frowned, "Prime Minister Du is too careful." ”
Prime Minister Du raised his head and sighed, "This official also hopes that this official is too careful, after all, behind this princess of Chang'an, but the entire Qi country, who can not be afraid?" ”
Wen Ling heard this,
Wen Ling frowned slightly, lowered his head and could only see Du Zhong's satin boots, but he didn't hear what Du Zai said to Rong Qing, just looked at it carefully, Rong Qing's face was extremely ugly, Prime Minister Du must have said something.
"It's getting late, and it's time for the official to go back." Prime Minister Du turned his head to look at Gu Xun's coffin again.
His gaze faintly swept over the guards and maids standing on the side, and then left.
Rong Qing stood there, looking at Gu Xun's spiritual position, and frowned.
It wasn't until Wen Ling coughed lightly that Rong Qing reacted, "Today, King Rong's Mansion is closed, and you all go down." ”
"Yes."
The guards responded, and after they all went out, Rong Qing closed the door.
"Princess."
Wen Ling raised his head and looked at Rong Qing, "What did you say about Du Zai?" ”
Rong Qing paused, "He reminded me that the young master's death is very likely to be related to His Highness. ”
Yes, the blood servants are all controlled by the Great Prince.
Before, the eldest prince also sent the young master to find the whereabouts of the missing three thousand blood servants, although he didn't find it, but ......
Although Rong Qing respects the prince, he is also closer to Gu Xun in the end, and now he is disturbed by Prime Minister Du's words.
Wen Ling was extremely calm, "That's it? ”
"What does the princess think?"
Wen Ling walked to the back of the coffin, the heavy coffin board had been closed, and Wen Ling's hand slowly stroked it.
To be honest, if she was the only one in this mourning hall, she would be afraid, but fortunately there was still a Rong Qing.
"If Du Zhong doesn't say it, I will still doubt Gu Rin. But Du Zhong specifically mentioned it to you, just to relayed it to me through your mouth, so I will be a little suspicious. ”
"The princess has a point." Only then did Rong Qing calm down.
To be honest, Rong Qing didn't dare to think about it.
His own young master has always been very concerned about the brotherhood with His Royal Highness, if the young master was killed by his most trusted and respected His Royal Highness, then the young master is only afraid that there will be no peace under the spring, he just thinks about it, and feels wronged for his young master.
Seeing that Wen Ling came over and did not put incense, but went to touch the coffin, and pushed it on the coffin, Rong Qing hurriedly said, "Princess, what is this going to do?" ”
"Open the coffin, I don't believe that the young master of your family is dead."
"The subordinates have already seen it, and it is indeed the young master inside." Rong Qingdao.
Wen Ling turned his head to look at Rong Qing, "I've really checked it, have you seen every inch of his body?" ”
Rong Qing paused, but was speechless.
He just looked at his face, the young master's face had been cut by the blood servant with a sword, and the appearance was broken, but the moles on his arms and neck and even the accessories on his body were indeed the young master's.
"You haven't seen it." Wen Ling is clear.
Gu Xun is Rong Qing's master, how dare Rong Qing blaspheme his master and make a mistake against his corpse.
"The body was sent back by Zhenyu, and it is also ...... Zhenyu"
"What about the others?"
"Zhenyu said that before the young lord died, he asked them to follow the eldest prince to do things, so now he is waiting by His Royal Highness's side. After the princess marries into the palace, her subordinates also have to serve by His Royal Highness's side. ”
Wen Ling understood, "Open the coffin, let me take a look." ”
Rong Qing hesitated slightly.
But it soon became clear that the princess was smart, and since she had opened the coffin now, it meant that the princess must have discovered something.
He also gritted his teeth and went to open the coffin.
As soon as the heavy coffin opened, a foul smell came to the nostrils.
Wen Ling frowned and held his breath.
It took a while to get used to the smell of this corpse.
It's just a pity that she can't let Ouyang Cheng come over to see this corpse again, so she can only check it herself.
The coffin was opened, and the people inside were also covered with gold silk, and Rong Qing lifted the face.
An unrecognizable face appeared in front of the two.
In addition to the face, so did the bare hands, and the death was tragic.
"This man's wounded mole, the mole on the back of his neck, are in the same position as the young master. And this ......" Rong Qing nodded at the jade pendant on his waist, which was the jade pendant with the other half in Wen Ling's hand right now, "This jade pendant young master will never leave his side." ”
"What if you have to get out of your side?" Wen Ling said softly, and after looking at it, he didn't start, "You untie his trouser belt and see if there is a red mole under his lower abdomen." ”
"How could the princess know about ......" Rong Qing was surprised.
Such a place must not be known to those who are close to it.
Even Rong Qing and Zhen Yu have never seen it.
"Him! He told me that himself! Wen Ling's ears turned red again, and he turned his back, "You can take a look, there is any." ”
If things outside the body can be disguised, then they will not be able to disguise themselves under their clothes.
Rong Qing didn't know why, but he felt that Wen Ling was very confident to confirm that this corpse might not be the master's. I also had a touch of courage in my heart to lift the belt of the corpse lying in the coffin.
The sound of rustling came from behind Wen Ling, and Wen Ling never looked back.
But at this moment, she became more and more nervous.
She was just a guess, she hadn't seen the red mole on Gu Xun's lower abdomen, but Gu Xun had said it. There was no other way for her to confirm her conjecture now.
After a while, the sound of rustling finally stopped.
After not hearing a voice from behind him for a long time, Wen Ling turned his head sideways and asked, "How?" ”
Rong Qing choked slightly, "No, there is no red mole on the lower abdomen of this corpse." ”
It's not just joy or excitement.
Hearing this, Wen Ling's heart suddenly seemed to be half clear as the moon was bright, and he took a deep breath, "Okay, close it, don't let people find out that something is wrong." ”
"Yes." Rong Qing hurriedly sorted out the disguise of the corpse and closed the coffin.
Wen Ling turned around and looked at Gu Xun's mourning hall.
No matter what, "Gu Xun" is already dead.
The corpse here can only confirm that this is not Gu Xun's, but where is Gu Xun, as she guessed, he is sitting in the palace with Gu Rin's skin on his head?
Wen Ling couldn't imagine what it would be like in Gu Xun's heart if this was the case.
He will hear the palace people say that it was Gu Xun who died instead of Gu Rin, and he would hear the people praise him, not that he had made great contributions with Gu Rin, but that he had saved Gu Rin and protected the god of the Jin Kingdom.
And now the last step to confirm is, is Gu Xun really pretending to be Gu Rin?
But this can only be found from Gu Rin.
Leaving King Rong's Mansion, Rong Qing followed behind Wen Ling, wanting to speak and stopping.
Wen Ling walked slowly, "Don't ask more, I naturally have my reason to doubt, if he is still alive, he must be doing what he will do, and he didn't tell you, maybe there is a reason." ”
Rong Qing was silent.
He was just wondering if Zhen Woo knew about it.
Upon learning of the young master's death, his first reaction was that Zhenyu did not protect the young master.
Zhenyu has always been very arrogant and careless, and often does not notice abnormalities, and he still needs to be reminded.
If the princess's guess is correct, the young master may still be alive, but the young master did not tell him, and it is very likely that Zhenyu knows about it, but he also hides it from him.
Since being sent to Wen Ling's side, Rong Qing has almost been idle, and this feeling is really not very good.
Wen Ling took two steps, heard the footsteps behind him stop, and turned his head to see Rong Qing standing there, hanging his head, with a very complicated expression on his face.
"What's wrong?" Wen Ling asked.
Rong Qing raised his head and looked at Wen Ling, "Does the princess have any guesses, where is the young master now?" ”
Rong Qing didn't see the holy decree, if Rong Qing could see the handwriting on the holy decree, it would definitely be easier to recognize than Wen Ling.
"I'm not sure yet, I just remember that Gu Xun is very smart and learns everything quickly."
"Yes, the young master does learn everything very quickly." Rong Qing admitted, "When I was in the barracks, the young master practiced martial arts, and the swordsmanship and swordsmanship that others couldn't understand in their lifetime were used once in front of the young master, and the young master was able to learn the three-point form." The young master is not as thoughtful as the big master, that is because the young master is sincere and has a heart, so he is bent on other places, and has no intention of fighting for power and government. But if the young master is not wise, then it is not. ”
Smart, but clean.
This is probably the case, when the big master was there, although he said little, but he took on most of the court affairs, and the young master was very well protected, so he lacked experience.
"No wonder......" Wen Ling nodded, "You don't have to think about it, I didn't find anything, it's just that I don't like to do things that I am not sure of, and if I don't really see Gu Xun's body, I won't admit that he is 'dead'." ”
Rong Qing nodded.
Wen Ling took two steps and remembered something, "By the way, I recently received the will, and tomorrow I will enter the palace to thank you." ”
