At this time, Pei Shu said again: "Fortunately, among the guards of the Forbidden Palace, there are one or two good hands who are good at bone shrinkage, after they explored, the secret passage leads directly to a wild cemetery outside the mountain, and they found a set of third-class chamberlain robes in the secret passage, as well as a few tattered clothes worn by children, and three very strange things. ”

His eyes were bright, and his voice became lower: "The same is a prosthetic leg tied with a row, with a prosthetic foot attached to the lower head, and it is tightly stuffed with cotton wool and other materials; The other is a golden bean, the style is rare in the market, His Majesty has seen it with his own eyes, and the Tao is that when the first emperor was there, the palace appreciated such a golden bean. The other is a human skin mask, which was taken to make people recognize, and it was the fake face of the false attendant. ”

As soon as this remark came out, Chen Ying's guess was confirmed.

"It's the dwarf." She said in a firm voice: "He stepped on stilts, raised his figure, put on a mask and pretended to be an attendant. Anyway, standing far away, no one could tell that it was a fake face. As for that kind of golden bean, needless to say, it is an old thing of King Kang back then. ”

"That's what I thought, too." Pei Shu frowned, with a hint of worry in his eyes: "I have already made this matter known to the Holy Lord, Your Majesty should even issue a decree, and send two people from each of the six departments to give a feast, and ask my uncle to enter the palace by name." In the following days, my uncle was afraid that he would have to live in the palace. ”

Chen Ying nodded unexpectedly.

The dwarf is the real culprit of the murder case in the guest house of the Guogong Mansion, and he intends to blame Chen Shao, and Emperor Yuanjia ordered Chen Shao to enter the palace to give a lecture on the scriptures, which can be regarded as a kind of protection in disguise.

Or is it that people are being taken care of?

Or both.

Who knows.

Chen Ying inexplicably felt funny.

She was busy catching the remnants of King Kang in front, while her father was hiding a big secret. This secret is so big that it caused King Kang Yu to exchange two abandoned sons for his stigma of murder.

Of course, there are other explanations for the murder.

For example, in order to defend the capital, Chengguo Gong fought with King Kang's rebels outside the city, and the two became enemies, so King Kang took revenge and came back and trapped the Guogong Mansion in danger.

However, this explanation is still very far-fetched.

The nobles who have fought with the rebels are not the only ones who have become the princes of the country?

There are more people in the capital who have beaten King Kang, why do they want to be wronged into the government of the country? Why did you want to be wronged by Chen Shao, who has been missing for eight years?

Who knows what is hidden behind him?

Emperor Yuan Jia is not at ease, it is too natural, and if Chen Ying is him, he will also be suspicious.

Perhaps, what Chen Shaozhi did was really equated with treason and rebellion.

Chen Ying laughed mockingly.

It's also really funny.

The daughter catches the thief, and the father is likely to be the head of the thief. Their father and daughter are really a dazzling pair.

"Your Majesty ordered me to send you home." Pei Shu said again, looking left and right.

There was no one else in the room, he put his mind at ease, took half a step forward, stretched his ape arm lightly, flicked his fingers, touched Chen Ying's sleeve, and quickly retracted.

Chen Ying looked at him in amazement.

What is this doing?

"Ah Ying, I can't hold your hand." Pei Shu said, the color on the black face is extremely rich.

Then he grimaced.

"With me, thousands of troops will be in front, and I won't be able to hurt you." He said in a deep voice, his eyebrows crossed and his arms folded, like a ring sword in his chest.

In Chen Ying's ears, someone suddenly seemed to pluck the strings, sonorous, it was a song "General Order".

She turned her eyes to look at him and said in a very soft voice, "Ashu, thank you." ”

Pei Shu grinned and wanted to laugh, but he endured it again, and waved his big hand: "I've said it all, what are you polite to me?" ”

Chen Ying smiled "poof".

Fang Cai's cute little action, coupled with his words at the moment, is really a little marquis-style intimacy, as well as a little marquis-style love words.

"Okay, I know, I will definitely not be so polite to you next time." She laughed.

Inexplicably, the depression in my heart has been slightly resolved.

She had nothing to worry about for the time being.

Chen Shao's matter is still inconclusive, and all her speculations are in the air and untenable.

Instead of worrying about the future, it is better to check slowly, fortunately, she is not completely without eyebrows now, at least Xingwei is still in her sight.

Although Chen Ying still doesn't know the true origin of this mysterious long-term entourage, she can be sure of one thing:

Chen Shao and Xingwei are definitely not as simple as a master and servant, and the reaction between the two of them is very subtle.

This is the conclusion reached by Chen Ying from a long observation.

Sometimes she even feels that the relationship between Xingwei and Chen Shao is the opposite of the one on the surface, Xingwei is the leader, and Chen Shao's status is still below him.

This discovery made Chen Ying more and more cautious.

If Xingwei is a big fish, then as long as he is found out, Chen Shao's secret will eventually be cracked.

Therefore, it is better not to act rashly, but rather to be slow.

"A-Ying, what are you thinking?" The mellow voice like wine came, and Chen Ying woke up like a dream.

She smiled at Pei Shu and naturally changed the topic: "I didn't think about anything, I just felt that the dwarf was so bold that he dared to break into here." ”

Speaking of this, she suddenly remembered something and asked, "Does that secret path have any origins?" ”

King Kang knew this secret way, but Emperor Yuan Jia didn't know anything, which made some sense, so she asked.

When Pei Shu heard this, his face was solemn again, and he habitually pressed his waist with one hand: "Your Majesty found a few old palace people to ask, and a palace person said that he had heard his master say that before Emperor Gaozong ascended the throne, he encountered an accident, and then he enclosed this small mountain to make a paddock, and after the paddock was built, those craftsmen all gave poisoned wine, and no one was left alive." I'm afraid this secret passage was dug at that time. ”

Chen Ying nodded: "It turned out to be so long ago, no wonder Your Majesty doesn't know." ”

Pei Shu also bowed his head: "Your Majesty also said so." His Majesty also said that Princess Kang is the daughter of a military general, not only born beautiful, but also good at riding and shooting, and was quite favored by King Kang back then. ”

"I'm afraid this speculation is quite close to the truth." Chen Yingdao was also a little curious about the former princess.

This Princess Kang is said to have committed suicide by taking poison with her children, and her body is in Ghost Crying Ridge.

It's just that such a beautiful woman who is good at riding and archery, and may be very smart, would easily give up her life?

Are those three skeletons really Princess Kang's mother and son?

Chen Ying thinks that this may not be the case.

King Kang's remnants are still demonizing everywhere, which is very telling.

In addition, the discovery of this secret passage once again shows that the three skeletons in Nabezhuang are only a disguise.

Fortunately, King Kang is dead, and now there are only three mother and son left, even if they collect the old department, I am afraid that the manpower is also very limited, which can be regarded as a fortunate thing for Dachu and a gospel for the people.

And the appearance of the dwarf also made things clear, Chen Ying previously speculated about the relationship between the "mysterious man" and the Changqiu Palace assassination case, and there was also one more side evidence, and the general direction of solving the case was also clear, and she was happy to see it.
