Chapter 126: The Most Suspicious Man

Early the next morning, as soon as Qiao Wanshu opened her eyes, she found that the Nine Emperor Princes were already dressed and were about to go out.

"Where to go? I'll go too! ”

She suddenly lost her sleepiness and rolled over and got up.

By eavesdropping on the conversation between the Nine Emperor Princes and the emperor, Qiao Wanshu already knew that her family had left the palace smoothly.

It's just that the suspicion of the fourth brother Qiao Jingyang has not been cleared, and he is still detained in the prison of Dali Temple.

She must seize every possible opportunity to follow the Nine Emperor Princes, strive to find clues, and clear the grievances of the fourth brother.

The Nine Emperor Princes looked at the little hands that were clenching him, and seemed to be a little distracted, and quickly replied, "Go and check the body of the crown prince." Why, you want to go with you, aren't you? ”

Qiao Wanshu shook her head: "I'm afraid, go too." ”

But he was complaining in his heart: [Isn't it just a corpse, can you still trick the corpse into biting me? ] As long as I can save my fourth brother, let alone look at the corpse, I will also do it myself! 】

Seeing that she seemed to be serious, the Nine Emperors didn't say anything more, and took her straight to Dali Temple.

The prince's body is temporarily parked here, waiting for the examination.

Although Qiao Jingyue is a genuine Dali Siqing, because of Qiao Jingyang, he adopted the principle of avoidance, and was only cooperating with the investigation of the case by the Nine Emperor Princes, but he did not really intervene in various affairs.

The Nine Emperor Princes still personally held Qiao Wanshu and came to the place where the corpse was parked.

Originally, he thought that this little girl would be frightened by the terrifying corpse, but he didn't expect her to open a pair of big black eyes and look at the autopsy more carefully than him!

Even when his vision was blocked, he would drag the Nine Emperors' clothes and arms to make him move his position and adjust his line of sight.

After examining the entire body of the crown prince, he came over and saluted the Nine Emperor Princes: "Qi Jiu Emperor Prince, the minister found a pinhole on the corpse of His Royal Highness the Prince, which is in the hidden part behind His Royal Highness's ear.

The toxin residue was examined from the pinhole, and it was preliminarily determined that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was poisoned by being injected with toxin from behind the ear. ”

The Nine Emperors listened and watched carefully.

He suddenly pointed to the scratches on the prince's fingers and asked, "How did these scars form?" ”

"Your Royal Highness, it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who grabbed a strip of cloth in his hand, probably in the process of tearing, pulled it off the murderer's body, and at the same time caused abrasions on his fingers."

"Where's the strip of cloth?"

The Nine Emperors asked again.

He presented the strip of cloth that had been removed from the corpse.

Qiao Wanshu looked at the strip of cloth carefully, the texture was not very precious, but looking at the remaining patterns on it, it was also carefully embroidered.

"Singing big opera, beautiful clothes?"

She murmured unintentionally, attracting the attention of the Nine Emperor Princes.

He turned his head and instructed his subordinates: "Go and show me the repertoire list of the opera troupe that day." ”

Qiao Wanshu didn't hear his words, but was immersed in her own thoughts.

[No matter how you look at it, this strip of cloth should have been torn off from the costume, and Bai Xiaosheng is also a famous number one killer on the rivers and lakes, and it is more than enough to subdue the prince. 】

[It's just that why did he attack the prince, and what was his motive? 】

It's not that she didn't think about Liu Zhan, after all, that guy has long had the ambition to usurp the throne, but now his strength is not enough, he is fledgling, and it is really not a wise move to startle the snake early.

But other than that, what reason does Bai Xiaosheng have to attack the prince?

No matter how Qiao Wanshu sorted out the known plot, or reasoned from Bai Xiaosheng's point of view, she could never find a reason that made sense.

[I don't know if the second brother knows this news, he is now excluded from the case, I'm afraid he knows something, and he can't take any action. 】

Qiao Wanshu sighed, and couldn't help but look at the Nine Emperor Princes.

[Now that the prince is gone, the biggest beneficiary may be him, or it may be Liu Zhan. After all, the Nine Emperors are not dominant in their age now, even if they are made the crown princes, it is not easy to sit in this position. 】

[And Liu Zhan, maybe he will seize this opportunity and quickly cultivate his own forces, and may even turn the Nine Emperor Princes into his puppet......]

Countless thoughts flashed through her mind, and she couldn't say it, so she could only hold it in her heart for the time being.

“…… Then bring someone over first, and the prince has something to ask him. ”

The Nine Emperor Princes ordered the movements of his subordinates, interrupting Qiao Wanshu's thoughts.

She only heard a tail and looked at the Nine Emperor Princes suspiciously, but he didn't explain who the person he was waiting to see was next.

"Okay, you should have watched it, and it's time to go back to eat and rest."

The Nine Emperor Princes seemed to be in a hurry to send Qiao Wanshu away, and waved her hand to let someone take her back.

"Don't go! Shu'er wants to listen! ”

Qiao Wanshu repeated her old tricks, hugged the thighs of the Nine Emperor Princes tightly, and posed as a dog skin plaster.

Of course, she had to follow the Nine Emperors closely and not miss any clues, so that she could know how to help Qiao Jingyang.

However, this time her calculation was about to fail.

The Nine Emperors forcibly "peeled" her off of herself, stuffed her into the hands of the palace maids, and sent her back to her own palace in disregard of her wishes.

Qiao Wanshu's little arms couldn't twist her thighs, and no matter how reluctant she was, she could only obediently return to the Nine Emperor Princes, the palace.

Although she had palace maids by her side, she still couldn't settle down and wait for the Nine Emperor Princes to return to the palace.

Taking advantage of the little baby's active nature as a cover, Qiao Wanshu took advantage of the master's absence and began to explore the palace.

The Nine Emperors' bedrooms are not large, but they also have essential rooms such as study rooms, bedrooms, and guest rooms.

Qiao Wanshu ran around the various rooms, and several attendants and palace maids who followed her were all complaining.

She was clamoring to paint again, climbed onto the desk in the study, grabbed a brush and splashed ink on the rice paper.

No one would have thought that a doll who was only a few years old would spy on any confidential information, and the palace maids were just careful not to let Qiao Wanshu get hurt, but they didn't expect her to take the opportunity to "read" the books on the desk and shelves.

[Strange, why are there so many palace floor plans here?] And there are also some information from the previous dynasty, what does the Nine Emperors want to do? 】

Qiao Wanshu found some suspicious points, and always felt that the Nine Emperor Princes seemed to be plotting something.

Thinking of his biological mother's life experience, a more and more clear thought gradually emerged in Qiao Wanshu's heart.

[Wouldn't it?] The Nine Emperors don't want to overthrow this dynasty and restore the previous dynasty, right? 】

Although she has not seen more evidence yet, she can infer from what she has seen so far that the proportion of this possibility is gradually increasing.

Just when Qiao Wanshu was shocked by this thought and was stunned, a rush of footsteps came.

The Nine Emperors took their subordinates and returned to the palace.

I was walking in the direction of the study.
