Early morning!

When the first rays of morning light shine on the earth, the huge Kyoto is full of patrolling soldiers, and the whole city is blank.

Even though the people knew what the bell meant last night, it was still shocking and unbelievable to see the changes on the streets.

His Majesty's body had never heard of any serious problems, but suddenly ......

This is undoubtedly bad news, hundreds of people spontaneously took to the streets to mourn, and the huge city was completely shrouded in a sad atmosphere.

In the hearts of the people of Lichao, His Majesty does not say that the Lord of Shengming is now, but it will definitely not be bad, after all, in his hands, the national strength of Lichao is getting stronger and stronger.

Defeated the Jin State, formed an alliance with the Wu Dynasty, lifted all the tributes to the Wu Dynasty and Dali, recaptured the Hexi Corridor, swept the Xiongnu, expanded Yingzhou, defeated Tubo, and so on.

No matter whose credit it is, it is in the hands of His Majesty today, and the life of the people is getting better and better, and there is more and more hope, which can be imagined!

Hundreds of people throughout Kyoto spontaneously mourned, and the atmosphere of sadness was enveloped, oppressive and dreary.

Yan Mansion.

Yan Zhenlin sat in the study all night and didn't sleep, looking very haggard.

At this time, Yan Qing walked in.

Yan Zhenlin glanced at him and asked, "Is there any news?" What was last night? ”

Yan Qingdao: "There is news from the palace that the second prince poisoned and murdered His Majesty early in the morning, it was originally a chronic poison, it is estimated that the fifth prince can't wait to be favored, and he is ready to completely end it last night, but his Majesty knows through it." ”

Yan Zhenlin said: "Since you have been recognized, why did something happen?" ”

Yan Qingdao: "The details are unknown, at that time, the chaotic party had been taken, but His Majesty suddenly died, and afterwards the imperial doctor examined, saying that His Majesty had been deeply poisoned, and he was emotionally exhausted by the accident last night, which led to the outbreak of toxins in the body." ”

"The imperial doctor has detected that the deadly toxin is the Tianzhu strange poison, which is consistent with the poison given by the second prince."

Yan Zhenlin squinted slightly, and asked again: "Who was there when Your Majesty died violently?" Dong Qianjun? Huang Gonggong? ”

Yan Qingdao: "After Dong Qianjun took the chaotic party, he was ordered to encircle and suppress the Qin State Mansion, and only Gonggong Huang was there at that time, as well as the inner guards stationed outside the door. ”

"A number of cabinet ministers have inquired, and there is no abnormality in the Ouchi guards, and there is no abnormality in Huang Gonggong."

Yan Zhenlin was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why do you say that Gonggong Huang is not abnormal." ”

Yan Qingdao: "Because it was Gonggong Huang who saw through this strange poison last night, so as to expose the second prince and save His Majesty's life, but His Majesty has already been poisoned to the depths of ......."

Yan Zhenlin's eyes narrowed slightly, "Something is wrong!" ”

Yan Qing was puzzled: "Master, what's wrong?" ”

Yan Zhenlin didn't answer, but continued to ask: "Since Dong Qianjun went to encircle and suppress the Qin State Mansion, who was the first to arrive at the palace last night?" Also, where are the five princes? ”

Yan Qingdao: "According to the news I have learned so far, the first to arrive at the palace was He Donglai, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and several other officials, and he brought people to him as soon as he received the news. ”

"As for the five princes......"

Yan Qing paused and continued: "Last night, the fifth prince learned that the second prince wanted to assassinate, so he rushed to the palace to rescue the driver, and started a fierce battle with the second prince's people, and was injured during the process, but he was unharmed at the time. ”

"But after leaving the palace, he was intercepted and killed by the two princes and his party who answered outside the palace, because he was injured and there were few guards left around him, so he was killed on the spot."

Yan Zhenlin's face changed, "How can you be sure that it is the second prince and one party?" Who was the first to find out? ”

Yan Qingdao: "He Donglai, the secretary of the Ministry of War, was leading many guards to the palace at that time, and he and several officials happened to see this scene and tried to save the five princes, but in the end they were still a step too late. ”

"Something is wrong!"

Yan Zhenlin shook his head and said, his eyes became deeper and deeper, "What a vicious method." ”

Yan Qing was puzzled: "Master, what's wrong?" Are you suspicious of the eldest princess? But the eldest princess had been accompanying the six princes last night, and there were many people around her, so she didn't go to the palace at all. ”

Yan Zhenlin said: "If you want to make a move, you don't necessarily have to enter the palace, Your Majesty died, and the second prince and the fifth prince had an accident together, who is the biggest beneficiary?" Do you think it's normal? ”

Yan Qing's face froze.

Oh, yes! His Majesty died, the two princes had an accident, and there were only six princes left in the huge Kyoto, so what happened next......

"The most important point, how did the fifth prince know that the second prince had poisoned His Majesty? And I also know that the second prince will shoot again last night, where did he get the news? ”

"He doesn't have many supporters behind him, and he is not well-informed enough, but it is so coincidental that he received the news when the second prince started last night, and he directly told His Majesty one moment earlier, and he didn't have time to enter the palace to rescue him one moment later."

"But the truth is, he's just not too sooner or too late."

Yan Qing's face froze, he didn't feel inappropriate before, but now when he heard the old man say this, it was true.

"But why is that?" He wondered.

Yan Zhenlin said: "Still don't understand? This is how he went to die, and some people wanted to solve it with him, so let him go at the right time, not sooner or later. ”

"It's too deliberate, and it also leaves the biggest flaw, the rebellion of the second prince was exposed, and by the way, the five princes were dragged into the water and solved together, who else?"

"Your Majesty happened to have a poisonous hair last night, how could it be such a coincidence? The so-called coincidences are just premeditated for a long time! ”

Yan Qing's face changed, "Sure enough, what a vicious method, a coup d'état, directly solve His Majesty and the second prince and the fifth prince." ”

"But... Your Majesty is not mediocre, is he not defenseless at all? ”

“……”

"Good question!"

Yan Zhenlin said, "Your Majesty is not only not mediocre, but the most shrewd, he can't be okay, you just said so many people, but you didn't mention Feilongwei, was there no Feilongwei last night?" ”

Yan Qingdao: "Not bad! It's true that there is no Wyvernguard, why is that? ”

Yan Zhenlin said: "This is Your Majesty guarding against her, because she has been in charge of the Flying Dragon Guard for so many years, and Her Majesty can't tell which one is her, so they are all internal guards." ”

"But, it's still the same sentence, she has been in charge of the Flying Dragon Guard for so many years, how many people there are, and who are in her hands, no one knows, and Your Majesty doesn't know, this is the most terrifying."

"Last night's rebellion has been suppressed, Your Majesty has probably relaxed at that time, he knows that someone has harmed him, and the murderer has been taken down, in that case, everyone will let their guard down."

"What's more, he can't be sure that the other party will make a move, let alone that the other party will make a move in this situation, if the person who made the shot is Huang Gonggong, then it will be even more perfect, and it can't be prevented."

Yan Qing's face changed, and he said, "How is it possible?" Huang Gonggong? How could he ...... if he saved His Majesty?"

Yan Zhenlin said: "It is precisely because he saved His Majesty that he is perfect, because His Majesty will no longer doubt him." ”

Yan Qing was surprised: "But ......"

Yan Zhenlin didn't wait for him to finish, and continued: "Have you ever thought about it, since Your Majesty had prepared for it last night, did he know that he had been poisoned? ”

"In that case, will he still take the decoction casually?"

Yan Qing's face froze, and he couldn't speak with his mouth open.

"If you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves, because you never know if he will make a move, and when he will do it."

"What's more, he's such a clever thief."

Yan Zhenlin sighed, then slowly got up, with a trace of sadness on his face, and said, "Prepare mourning clothes!" Go and see off Your Majesty for the last time. ”
