Gu Linger's face turned pale, because she understood the meaning of these words, but she still couldn't help but ask, "So, the husband also suspects that it is the fourth prince?" ”

Lin Bai was silent for a while, didn't rush to answer, only said, "We can use the elimination method." ”

"At present, there are only three people who are most likely to win the throne, the second prince, the fourth prince and the sixth prince."

"Let's talk about the six princes first, as I said before, he actually needs time, time and time to consolidate the relationship with his own interest group and become stronger."

"Moreover, the Cui family rebelled, the queen was placed under house arrest, and the fourth prince was disliked by the first emperor because of the blood transfusion, the first emperor was alive, and the benefit to him was the greatest, and his power expanded during this period of time, which is the best proof."

"So, he's the least motivated."

Gu Linger nodded, "That's right! He really has no motive, and looking at the current situation, he is the first to bear the brunt. ”

Lin Bai continued: "Let's talk about the second prince, although the Cui family rebelled and the queen was under house arrest, to put it bluntly, these things have nothing to do with him. ”

"The queen was placed under house arrest because of her mother-in-law, he was still a child at that time and couldn't participate, and the Cui family's rebellion was not because of him."

"It is precisely because of this, coupled with his good performance during blood transfusion, that the first emperor did not suppress him, and the reason why those courtiers left him was not because of the suppression of the first emperor, but because they were worried about themselves."

"In fact, the first emperor should still have a certain amount of support, otherwise to this day, he would not still have the strength and qualifications to win the throne."

"It seems that as long as he is given more time, he may be able to regain his former advantages, so he doesn't seem to have a motive."

Gu Linger thought for a while and nodded: "Not bad!" ”

"Another point, this is his sincerity to his husband, this matter was revealed by him on his own initiative, if it was him, he would not have taken the initiative to uncover it."

Lin Bai pondered for a while, did not reply, and said: "Finally, the fourth prince, he was disliked by the first emperor because of blood transfusion, but there are many supporters behind him. ”

"Does he have a motive?"

Lin Bai thought for a while, "Yes! He did have a motive, and if the first emperor didn't like him and didn't want to pass on the throne to him, then it would be useless to have more of his supporters. ”

"The first emperor is still alive, and whoever the throne is passed to is a word from the first emperor, otherwise, it is not necessarily."

Gu Linger said: "So, it's him?" ”

Lin Bai was silent for a long time, did not admit or deny it, and only said: "One thing is very strange, if it is really him, he will not hesitate to kill the king, there should be a big move." ”

"Be radical, or even directly intervene by force, and take the position strongly, even if you don't do this, it is a high probability event to get a fake edict or something."

"There's no reason to take such a big risk to kill the king, and as a result, you don't do anything."

"Compared with the arrogance of the six princes on the surface, the second prince makes small moves behind his back, but the fourth prince is unusually quiet, which is obviously abnormal."

Gu Linger was puzzled: "Doesn't the husband think it has nothing to do with him?" ”

Lin Bai shook his head, "It's hard to say for the time being, there are too few clues, but there is one point, if he wants to kill the king, it must be because of the throne." ”

There is no doubt about this, the prince killed his father, nothing more than for the throne.

"But at present, it seems that the situation of the three princes has not changed significantly after the death of the first emperor."

Gu Linger nodded, as if she was faintly relieved, "Could it be that it's not the prince at all, but other outsiders?" ”

Lin Bai shook his head, "It's unlikely. ”

"Why?"

Gu Linger was puzzled.

Lin Bai said: "There are not many people who can contact the first emperor and poison him, and these people must know that the first emperor is seriously ill, in other words, but sooner or later, there is no need to take such a big risk." ”

Judging from Imperial Physician Liu's description, the first emperor was already deeply poisoned at that time and could not be saved, so there was no need for that at all.

If there is really any grudge between someone and the first emperor behind him, he is not in a hurry for a while, and he will be over after waiting for his death.

Gu Linger said: "This is the same for the three princes!" Father's time is short, and there is no need for them to rush into action. ”

"Not necessarily!"

Lin Bai said, "There is a possibility. ”

Gu Linger asked anxiously, "What is possible?" ”

Lin Bai asked rhetorically: "If the first emperor knew that his time was short, then what would he do?" ”

Gu Linger thought for a while, and then blurted out: "Make an edict, this is the top priority, who will he arrange to take over." ”

"Not bad!"

Lin Bai said: "If someone knows the thoughts of the first emperor in advance, and knows that it is not himself who passed on the throne of the first emperor, then that person may kill the king, because only in this way can he have a chance." ”

"Otherwise, once the edict is confirmed, he will have no chance, which is probably the reason why the first emperor did not leave an edict, because when he wanted to make an edict, it was too late."

Gu Linger's eyes changed drastically, and this inference was too likely.

If it weren't for that, the father was already terminally ill, and who would take a huge risk to poison again?

There is no need for that at all, only in this case, the other party will not hesitate to take risks.

In other words, it must be some prince.

Second prince? The Four Princes? Or the Six Princes?

Gu Linger's face was ugly.

Although he had been mentally prepared for this for a long time, it was still a little uncomfortable to really learn about it.

The royal family has no family affection, and before the imperial power, everything was so cold.

She was silent for a moment, then looked at Lin Bai and asked, "Who does the husband think it will be?" ”

Lin Bai thought for a while, shook his head and said: "It's still difficult to be sure for the time being, I don't know enough about a few people, and I have the most contact with the four princes, just by my understanding."

"This person is ruthless and decisive, if it is him, there is a high probability that he will forge an edict or forcibly ascend to the throne."

"However, this kind of thing is not absolute, maybe he has other ideas, at least for now, combined with the suspicions of the other two princes, he is the most suspicious."

Lin Bai did have a headache, because these two poisoning cases were confusing.

The biggest suspect in the first case is Zhou Yingkui, who seems to be a completely impossible person, and he can't even find a motive.

The second one is a little better, at least motivated, but who it is is still a big question.

Although Lin Bai is not a good person, he has to say that his abilities in all aspects are still very good, especially decisive, he wanted to kill himself when he left the dynasty for the first time, and then he visited the Wu Dynasty and asked the first emperor to kill himself.

This is enough to show that this guy has good eyesight, is decisive, and ruthless.

This kind of person, once the king is killed, should not be so silent.

But if not him, who would it be?

The Six Princes?

This little rookie doesn't look like it at first glance, and the means are too tender.

Could it be the second prince?

But it shouldn't be! If it was him, why did he uncover it? Isn't this asking for trouble for yourself? A thief shouts to catch a thief?

Is this necessary? What is his purpose?
