Chapter 171: Late Night Assassination
Bai Wushuang took a sip of tea and asked, "Then have you ever seen the silver sent into the Household Servant's Mansion?" ”
The man waved his hand directly, "No, because the tobe waiter doesn't accept it at all, and I don't know how the money got in in the end." You see, in fact, I thought it was very good at that time, at least it would not be sentenced to death if it was known by the imperial court, but I didn't expect it......"
Chi Jingyu put away the sword in his hand, and he could be regarded as finding a little bit of useful information.
"Who is the one who instructed you?" Bai Wushuang continued to ask, this clue was useless.
I saw the man shaking his head, and he didn't know who it was. "The man was dressed in black, but his tone was very strange, as if he was talking at the throat of a male duck."
Chi Jingyu and Bai Wushuang glanced at each other, it seemed that the three princes had forgotten the characteristics of the people in the palace, and their faces looked a little better.
"Let's go, let's go to the General's Mansion with us, if this matter is not clarified, I'm afraid something will happen if you live here." Chi Jingyu pulled the old man and asked him to command someone to lead the carriage.
The group returned to the general's mansion in a mighty way, and the family who was imprisoned was full of fear, for fear that they would be wiped out. But fortunately, the people in the General's Mansion were relatively kind, which made them breathe a sigh of relief.
"What's next?"
Chi Jingyu looked back at the courtyard where those people were being held and had no idea, he didn't know what this little scattered evidence was.
"We'll wait and see what happens, and when we get all the evidence, we'll take someone to the palace on a certain day so that we can clear up the grievances of the household servant."
After speaking, Bai Wushuang pulled Chi Jingyu's neck and said something in his ear. I only saw Chi Jingyu looking shocked, and then immediately took action. And Bai Wushuang looked at the sky, hoping that his idea was right.
The sky gradually darkened, there was no moonlight this night, the clouds were thick, and it looked like it was going to rain.
"The moon is dark and the wind is high." Bai Wushuang sat by the window and looked at the sky and smiled, "It looks like something is going to happen." ”
Chi Jingyu's back straightened when he heard her words, and then he hurriedly sent more people to protect the witnesses. "Will it come?"
It's almost time, there is no movement outside, and Chi Jingyu can't sit still. He didn't know if Bai Wushuang's method was useful, although she had always been very calculating, but the horse also had its hoof.
Before Bai Wushuang could speak, he heard the tiles on the roof being trampled on. Chi Jingyu knew that he was coming, his muscles all tensed, and his hands held the long sword tightly.
"Here we are." She made a lip gesture at Chi Jingyu, but he didn't see it in the dark night.
Suddenly, the entire general's mansion was ablaze, and all the soldiers were mobilized, and the sound of shouting and killing was endless.
Assassination, the General's Mansion was actually assassinated. As the master, Bai Wushuang was sitting at the table listening to the sound of killing outside, she looked up at Chi Jingyu, it seemed that she didn't have to worry about anything when this man was here.
Only a quarter of an hour later, the voices in the General's Mansion stopped.
Bai Wushuang walked out of the room accompanied by Chi Jingyu, looking at his current state, the three assassins who had been caught had already lifted their jaws and looked at him with hatred on their faces.
"Take a good look at who sent it." Chi Jingyu's voice was a little depressed, and he looked back at Bai Wushuang with admiration in his heart.
In the afternoon, she expected that the third prince would come to assassinate the witness, so she hurriedly asked someone to transfer the position of the witness, and then ambushed the soldiers inside.
A few families are happy and a few are sad.
When the third prince learned that the person he sent to frame the household servant was taken away by the people from the General's Mansion, he immediately panicked, so he thought of killing people and destroying his mouth, but he didn't expect Chi Jingyu to be able to make such a move.
"It's really a good means, Bai Wushuang, Bai Wushuang." He really didn't believe that Chi Jingyu could come up with this, he couldn't think of anyone else who had such a means other than Bai Wushuang.
"What's next?"
The third prince, who had no idea, looked back at the black curtain, hoping that the people inside would give him an idea. But I only heard the sound of the beads tugging inside.
The third prince felt that he was a little too anxious, but he heard it say, "Why bother alone? Find people who share your interests. ”
Suddenly, the third prince thought of the second prince, and he slapped his horse out.
"Second brother."
As soon as he entered the door, he couldn't wait to grab the second prince's hand, thinking of the previous impeachment of the Tobe squire, he helped himself, and now such a good opportunity to bring down the big prince's party, I'm afraid no one wants to give up.
"The third brother has something important to ask you......" Then he said that he wanted the second prince to help him get rid of the witnesses, and he saw a sinister smile on the second prince's face.
"It's so calculating, third brother."
I don't know if he is praising the third prince for his good means of using himself as a gun, or praising him for his good means of getting rid of the Hubu Shangshu, anyway, he didn't agree.
"Second brother?" The third prince screamed tentatively, and then looked at the second prince with an inquiring face.
"Third brother, this matter has nothing to do with the second brother."
Seeing that the second prince didn't want to care about himself, the third prince stood up and brushed his sleeves away, if he didn't want the third prince to help him, why did he have to grovel like this?
When the second prince saw the third prince leaving, his eyes were full of gloom, he added fuel to the fire, but he wouldn't help wipe his buttocks, watching the battle between the eldest prince and the third prince, he still felt extremely interesting.
"It's better to fight and lose both." He teased the starling bird next to him, with a smile on his face.
Saying that, the angry third prince returned to the mansion and smashed some vases, and the doorman next to him came up and said, "Lord, why don't you go to the emperor?" ”
The third prince looked back at the doorman, his eyes were full of inquiry, if he went to the emperor now, I am afraid that he would reveal all his conspiracy, right? At that time, the eldest prince did not fall down, but fell himself.
"What do you mean?"
The doorman knew that the time had come to show himself, and he leaned over and whispered a lot in the ear of the third prince. After a while, he saw the praise of the third prince, and his face was full of pride.
The third prince felt that what the doorman said was very reasonable, so he packed up and went directly to the palace.
"Father." He knelt in front of Yun Wangtian and wept bitterly, "Erchen heard that General Chi has been investigating the matter of the household servant recently, and he is completely contempt for the imperial power." ”
As he spoke, the third prince said everything that the doorman told him. After seeing Yun Wangtian's brows furrowed, he smiled in his heart, feeling that his trick had worked.
And Yun Wangtian actually didn't want to pursue the fact that the household servant committed suicide in fear of crime, and Chi Jingyu stood behind the eldest prince like a mirror in his heart. So if Chi Jingyu investigates the case of the household servant, it shows that the eldest prince is manipulating behind his back. There was an early warning in his heart, after all, since ancient times, there have been a number of generals with high merits.
Yun Wangtian knew in his heart that if Chi Jingyu had really been supporting the eldest prince, it seemed that according to the development progress of this matter, he felt that the eldest prince would be opposed.
The third prince knew that Yun Wangtian had planted the seeds of doubt in his heart, so he didn't say much and left the palace with interest.
At this moment, not only did the third prince think of Yun Wangtian, but Bai Wushuang also thought of it, in response to the assassination of the General's Mansion, she wanted Chi Jingyu to enter the palace to inquire about the situation.
Chi Jingyu went directly to the palace after listening to Bai Wushuang's words, but what he didn't expect was that he was rejected by Yun Wangtian. Even if Wufu is not delicate enough, he also understands that Yun Wangtian is afraid that he knows about his investigation of the household servant.
"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty......"
As he spoke, Chi Jingyu knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times, and then knelt on the ground to show his loyalty. "Your Majesty, if you don't see the ministers for a day, the ministers will kneel for a day, and if you don't see the ministers in January, the ministers will kneel for a month."
And Yun Wangtian already knew about Chi Jingyu kneeling outside the palace gate, he knocked on the table with a fan without saying a word, and he didn't say anything, which also showed Yun Wangtian's attitude. The palace people didn't dare to say anything, and retreated one after another.
Yun Shaoti came back from the royal temple and saw Chi Jingyu at the gate of the palace, she frowned and got off the soft sedan chair.
"General Chi." Her voice was soft, bent gently, with affection on her face and tactfulness in her eyes.
Chi Jingyu raised his head and frowned at Yun Shaoti, and said coldly: "Forgive the minister for being rude, I can't give you a salute." ”
Yun Shaoti looked at the palace people around her, and then heard them say this in a few words, she frowned and asked someone to help Chi Jingyu up.
"General Chi, what is the matter with you kneeling here? You go back first, and you can listen to this palace tell you carefully. ”
Chi Jingyu staggered and stood up straight, he only heard Yun Shaoti say that the third prince had seen Yun Wangtian first, and he didn't think well in his heart.
And Yun Shaoti was stunned when she saw Chi Jingyu, and she kept persuading him to go back first. Chi Jingyu also knew that he was hopeless, and at the same time wanted to go back to discuss with Bai Wushuang, so he rode his horse back to the mansion directly after bidding farewell to Yun Shaoti.
"It's not good...... he turned over and dismounted, and when he saw Bai Wushuang, he said something bad. Then he told him about the treatment he received in the palace, and then told Yun Shaoti what he told him, hoping that Bai Wushuang could analyze it.
When Bai Wushuang heard Chi Jingyu's narration, he only felt bad in his heart, and the situation of being sued by the wicked first was not good for them.
"Damn." She felt that she had forgotten that the third prince would go to sue first, "We can't bring witnesses into the palace now, if we rush into the palace at this time, I'm afraid that the emperor will be even more suspicious." ”
Bai Wushuang touched his chin and kept pacing, "The old emperor is too old, his three sons have grown up, and now is the time when he is easy to be suspicious and fierce. Your identity is so embarrassing, I'm afraid you'll be disposed of. ”
