Chapter 49: Who Are the Wicked?

Seven years of the Apocalypse.

Guo Zhen's figure quietly left the palace. He is an old man in the palace, and naturally knows that the most important thing in the palace is secrets.

But this time, Guo Zhen still felt a chill all over his body. Because he discovered a big secret.

There were many secrets in the palace, but most of them would not shock a eunuch of his level. Only this time, Guo Zhen almost had a premonition that he might not have a good death. Because those who know this kind of secret will almost inevitably die.

Guo Zhen discovered the truth about the emperor's overboard.

Of course, in fact only part of the truth. To be precise, Guo Zhen discovered that there was something wrong with the emperor's treasure ship. It's not that someone has tampered with it, but at the design level, and there is something wrong with it.

His Majesty is an expert, and the drawings are in his hands. At that time, of course, there would be no problem. Therefore, the problem must be in the drawings in the hands of the craftsmen.

Guo Zhen holds a sample of the original drawings in his hand. As long as you can find the drawings used by those craftsmen to build them as a comparison, you will be able to determine this matter.

Guo Zhen asked a craftsman of the year. The other party told him that the drawings they had seen before were slightly different from those in Guo Zhen's hands.

In fact, Guo Zhen did not want to investigate this matter in depth. But already he knew it was too late. After the emperor fell overboard, he was in charge of investigating the matter. I don't know how many people are staring at me. Guo Zhen is very familiar with the rules of the palace.

This rule is that countless big and small things happen in the palace every day, some good and some bad. And all these things, except for the emperor. Each piece will be transmitted outside the palace. The eunuchs and maids in the palace each received more than one piece of money to pass on the news.

Therefore, the news in the palace, except that the emperor does not know, there is no secret at all.

What you do can't hide from those people at all. Once you are in the game, you can only go as far as you can. If we can find out the truth and find evidence, then there is a silver lining. Of course, it's just a thin line.

Guo Zhen made an appointment with the craftsman to meet and asked him to bring the drawings from the construction of the year. Just get that drawing and compare it with the one in your hand. He found absolute evidence that there was something wrong with the treasure ship.

In the restaurant, Guo Zhen, who was dressed in casual clothes, was waiting anxiously. But the person he was waiting for never arrived. This made Guo Zhen have a bad premonition.

And at this time, he suddenly found out that he didn't know when. The drinkers in the restaurant have almost left. In the empty restaurant, only one guy was left dozing off.

Guo Zhen shuddered violently, got up and hurriedly walked outside. And at this time, there was a dense sound of footsteps outside the door.

Guo Zhen froze for a moment and was about to escape. I felt that suddenly someone covered my mouth from behind and dragged me to the back kitchen of the inn.

"Silence, follow me."

Hearing a familiar voice, Guo Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. Obediently followed the other party out of the back door of the restaurant.

At the main entrance, a group of black-clothed people rushed into the restaurant, but Guo Zhen was not seen.

In a secret mansion, Lu Xiao took off the mask on his face.

"Gonggong Guo, what happened, I rushed over immediately after receiving your news. Those people just now weren't ordinary villains. What exactly are you doing? ”

Guo Zhen didn't speak, but first picked up the teapot next to him and poured it violently. Then take a few deep breaths before you start talking.

"Lu Qianhu, it's really up to you to save your life this time. I'm afraid it's going to be a big disaster. ”

"Don't worry, speak slowly." Lu Xiao's calm tone calmed Guo Zhen's mood a little.

"Lu Qianhu, I found out that someone is going to rebel!"

Lu Xiao was suddenly 'shocked'.

"Rebellion, this is no joke! Do you have evidence, who is going to rebel? ”

"I haven't found out who it is. But I found out the truth about the emperor's fall into the water. Someone made a move on the drawings, causing the treasure ship to sink and almost harming the emperor, isn't this a rebellion? ”

"Someone has tampered with the treasure ship? My father-in-law can't talk nonsense, he has to lose his head. Do you have proof? ”

"I could have gotten the evidence tonight. I have a copy of the drawings that have survived in the palace, and I have found the person who supervised the construction of the treasure ship back then. The drawings he said were different from what he had seen back then. We made an appointment to meet tonight, and he handed me the drawings from that year. But who knew that I waited for a night and he didn't come, and ......"

Listening to Guo Zhen's words, Lu Xiao was thoughtful. He pushed the teapot to Guo Zhen and asked him to drink saliva to calm down. Then he spoke.

"When I went, I didn't see anyone else. The person you asked for either didn't show up, or someone else has already been killed. ”

"I knew it, I knew it!!" Guo Zhen regretted it.

"This kind of thing, I don't have the command block above, I'm afraid it's not good to meddle at will! What are Guo's plans? ”

Lu Xiao vaguely said that he didn't want to interfere. Guo Zhen understood what Lu Xiao meant.

"For now, I have to go back to the palace first and serve by His Majesty's side. I don't think they dare to attack me in the palace. ”

Lu Xiao really wanted to say it directly, they all attacked the emperor in the palace, do they still care about you?

However, after thinking about it for a while, Guo Zhen still did not directly stimulate.

"In that case, I will immediately send someone to send my father-in-law back to the palace."

sent Guo Zhen away, Lu Xiao sat on the chair and did not move. He had the drawing that Guo Zhen didn't take with him.

At this time, Lu Wenzhao walked out of the back room.

"This Guo Gonggong is really a second person. It's been eight years, and it's been a line with us. When I encountered something that lost my head, the first thing that came to mind was us. It's really 'love and righteousness'! ”

"Hehe, maybe in their eyes, we martial artists are used to block swords. Back then, he also said a few kind words, and we saved his life twice. That's all for that. ”

"That's fine, you won't be able to do it later."

Lu Wenzhao said and took out a drawing from his arms.

"This is a sample of the drawings for the construction of the treasure ship that have survived in the case vault."

The two carefully compared the two drawings, and sure enough, they found subtle differences. Lu Wenzhao was a little puzzled.

"There's something weird about this. It took more than a year for the treasure ship to be built and launched.

That means those people started planning a year ago. I don't know how many inspections have been carried out during this period, but there has not been a single problem. Why did this erroneous drawing survive? That doesn't suit those people's styles, huh? ”

Lu Xiao looked at the two different drawings and chuckled.

"Hehe, it's not easy. The drawings were not destroyed, they must have left them on purpose. As for the purpose, it is naturally to lead the case.

Guo Zhen has lived in the palace for a long time, how can he have such a great ability to find out so many things. He could find out, so naturally someone asked him to find out. ”

Lu Wenzhao nodded.

"It seems that this is the case, yes, someone deliberately borrowed Guo Zhen's hand to lead this case. And the person who supervised the construction of the treasure ship back then was a person from the East Factory. ”

Lu Xiao sighed lightly.

"You see, they all say that Wei Zhongxian is treacherous and vicious. So now, what are these people who are going to kill the emperor in order to deal with Wei Zhongxian? ”
