Wu Shangshu had just been released and returned to his home, rested for a day, and was about to go to the palace to go to the court, when he heard the report from the housekeeper.

"Master, the prince and the little prince ask to see you!"

"Hurry up, please!"

After a while, I saw the prince in front and the little prince in the back and walked into the front hall of Shangshu Mansion.

"See the prince, the little prince." Wu Shangshu said politely.

"Brother doesn't have to be formal."

"Uncle!"

The little prince couldn't wait to ask: "Uncle, please tell me, is there really someone else who died of my mother back then?" Is it really not the emperor's doing? He had to ask him personally so that he could really rest assured, and he was worried that Amma was just comforting him before saying that.

"Exactly, little prince." When Wu Shangshu saw his anxious appearance, he knew the purpose of their visit today.

"Does my uncle mean that it was not the emperor who killed my mother, but someone else?" He asked again, for fear that he had misheard.

"Little prince, back then, your mother was your father's most favored concubine, and he was beaten into the cold palace because of the courtiers' request, he was the son of heaven, and he had to take care of the court, and then he also entrusted her to take care of your mother secretly, how could he kill her ruthlessly? Helplessly, when your father was about to take your mother out of the cold palace, he encountered childbirth, and then he was killed. The emperor was also very painful, and he didn't think about eating or drinking for a few days, and his uncle didn't know about it until later, so little prince, think about it, he is a generation of Ming Jun, how can he bear to kill your mother? ”

The clues found by Wu Shangshu really helped a lot, at least the little prince believed what he said, his father was still affectionate to his mother, not a ruthless person.

He was finally relieved, but he was not reconciled and vowed to find out the murderer.

Then he asked, "Does my uncle have any other clues?" ”

"Yes, yes, but not sure."

"Say it, I'm not going to let these murderers escape." The little prince said viciously.

"I only know that this matter is related to General Sun." Wu Shangshu looked at the little prince's anxious eyes and said.

"General Sun? Is the elder brother talking about Sun Weiren, the current general and deputy general of the city guard? "The prince knows that he is the only one surnamed Sun today who is the old general, and he has been under the banner of Shishan, the general who guards the city, all these years.

"Exactly." Wu Shangshu is definitely authentic.

"Did my brother find out why he did the same?" The prince asked again.

"I haven't found it yet, no, I was about to investigate, but I was put in prison by the emperor, and I don't dare to act rashly in this situation." Wu Shangshu has been struggling to track down these years, and he has also tried his best, but he didn't expect to be blamed by the emperor for bullying the king and sent to the prison, although he is unwilling, but now the saint is also a Ming Jun, no, it is not the same to let them out, so this has strengthened his loyalty to the emperor.

"Uncle has bothered all these years, Wen'er will definitely bring the murderer to justice and return the innocence of my mother and more than a dozen people!" The little prince said firmly.

"Little prince, this matter has to be discussed again, I think the emperor will not ignore it, I am thinking of begging the emperor to go to the court, to intercede, and let the old minister investigate this matter to the end, this will not be delayed when you come to the house." Wu Shangshu has always been a righteous person, and under his eyelids, he would never want these grievances to happen, not to mention that it was related to his third sister's family.

"Uncle, can Wen'er enter the palace with you?" The little prince begged.

"This ......" Wu Shangshu's expression was a little embarrassed, and his expression was full of embarrassment.

"Brother is worried that the emperor is already angry, and he is afraid that Wen'er will be implicated by you when he enters the palace?" Wang Ye analyzed.

"Exactly." Wu Shangshu was calm and authentic.

"Wen'er, it's really not the right time for you to go to the palace now, it's not too late to wait for your father to announce that you will enter the palace, and you don't have to make some trouble with your uncle." The prince spoke earnestly.

"Okay, Amma, Wen'er understands." The little prince has always been filial and doesn't want to implicate anyone.

"Then I'll go home first, and come back to visit my brother another day." The prince said that he was about to leave.

Before leaving, Wu Shangshu said: "Don't worry, the old minister will definitely find out about this matter." ”

In this way, the two went back to the palace, and the prince could only wait for the emperor to announce the decree to take the little prince back to the palace, and his own Jin'er could also return to the palace.

In the general's mansion in the border city, there was a half-white man who was a year old, his temples were white, his beard was an inch long, and his dark square face showed a slightly majestic and fierce image, and he did not look like a good person.

He is Sun Weiren, the deputy general of the current general who guards the city.

"General, someone asks to see you."

"Please!"

I saw one person enter the camp tent, and immediately said: "General Sun, we missed!" ”

"A bunch of rubbish!" He said angrily, and immediately waved his hand and ordered his men to leave the tent.

After the guards went out, they asked each other, "I don't know why this General Sun is so angry." ”

"Who knows?" The other guard replied.

Only Fang Cai came in with Sun Weiren in the tent.

Seeing that the rest of the people had retreated, Sun Weiren asked, "How could you miss?" ”

The man replied: "We could have killed a few people on the way, and our martial arts skills were extremely high, so we fled when we saw that the situation was not good." ”

"What evidence is left?"

"No, don't worry, general, I will definitely kill him next time." The man replied.

"Okay, you go and tell your master, if you fail again, I'm afraid there will be no chance in the future, this matter is well known that the little prince in the court is the prince, if you miss again, I'm afraid it will affect my entire family."

"Don't worry, general, I will inform the master when I go back, and I will definitely go all out!" The man was a beautiful man, and he couldn't tell what kind of master he was, so the guards didn't have any suspicions.

"You go first, I'll inform the palace." After Sun Weiren saw that the man had left, he wrote a letter and sent it to the palace.

There is a lady in the Spring Palace, she is the emperor's fourth concubine such as Concubine, there is a little girl under her knees, she is still young, named the fifth princess, she as always passed the time in the back garden with the girls with the five princesses to play, was about to enter the house, only to see a father-in-law walk towards her.

"Like a concubine, a letter from the border." Her father-in-law gave her the letter and left.

She slowly opened the letter, only to see that her face became a little anxious.

"Mother, what's going on?" Her dowry maid Lingxiao asked.

"This thing that doesn't know what to do is actually bullied me." She said angrily.

"Who? Who dares to bully our mother? Lingxiao asked again.

"Who else will there be, it's not the slut of Concubine Shu back then!"

"She? Hasn't she been dead for years? Lingxiao asked again.

"It's a group of people who don't know the height of the sky and want to overturn the case for her." She is very polite to everyone, but she loves this Lingxiao very much, so this maid is involved in everything, including the matter of the concubine back then.

"Whoever dares to pretend to our mother, then it will have to be a dead end, mother, you can't let these people make waves."

"That's nature!" Concubine Ru smiled, laughing so treacherously, so insidious.

"Lingxiao, go prepare some pen and paper, and I'll send a letter to the border immediately." Concubine Ru commanded, and she also got up and returned to the house.

"Slave and maid, go now." After the words fell, he went back to Ruchun Palace first, and prepared pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Concubine Ru stepped into the Ruchun Palace, sat down, wrote a letter, and sent it to the border gate, and then went to the back garden to accompany the fifth princess.

In the border general's mansion, I saw a guard hurrying with a letter.

"General, a letter from the palace." This person is Sun Weiren's personal guard.

He opened the letter and looked at it, and laughed.

Seeing that he was so happy, he asked, "General, what did Niang Niang say?" ”

"She told us to wait and see what happened, and she would find someone to deal with it, and of course the pursuit and killing should not be delayed."

"It's a good one to wait and see. Looks like I'm underestimating her abilities! Sun Weiren said softly, Dye Qicheng is his personal guard, he has been by his side all these years, since the death of Concubine Shu, he has not slept well these days, he has not eaten well, and he has always been afraid that this matter will be known by the saint.

Dye Qi Chengdao: "General, you have to cut the grass and eradicate the roots!" ”

He looked at Ran Qicheng, and then thought about the content of Niangniang's letter: "Qicheng, the pursuit of the killing a few days ago failed, you have to run in person, inform the son, if there is another mistake, let them come to see me with their lives." ”

"Yes, General, I'll do it!" After the words fell, he left the general's mansion and left alone on horseback.

Sun Weiren in the general's mansion has been secretly snickering, just waiting for him to do this, he can lead this pass alone in the future, and then he will no longer have to be yelled at by that bullshit general, he has been wronged under his banner all these years, and he is older than him, he is also very unhappy. If the assassination is successful, one is to sit firmly in the position of the general, and the other is to solve the worries of the mother. Won't it kill two birds with one stone?

"Hahahaha...... God help me! He laughed wildly, laughed foolishly, and completely ignored the current general who defended the city.

"Driving ......" Dye Qicheng drove the horse all the way to the place ordered by General Sun.
