Chapter 245: Assassination Mastermind

The envoy of the Great Zhou Dynasty was assassinated on the street, and Yu Wenlang hurriedly rode his horse to Yan Qinghan and Chu Linche.

He asked with concern, "No injuries, right?"

Yan Qinghan and Chu Linche glanced at each other, turned their heads to Yu Wenlang and said, "It's okay." ”

Mo Bai stepped forward, picked up the bow and arrow, handed it to Yan Qinghan, and said, "Lord Wang, this bow and crossbow has marks on it, not like an ordinary killer. ”

Yu Wenlang's eyes flashed, and he took the bow and crossbow from Mo Bai's hand, and the surprise that flashed in his eyes was still in the eyes of Yan Qinghan and Chu Linche.

He said: "The prince and the prince, please rest assured, we will definitely give you an explanation for this matter." ”

The corners of Chu Linche's mouth pulled up a sarcastic smile: "The eldest prince has to investigate carefully, otherwise the security of this Lin'an is too poor, killers are everywhere, who would dare to come?"

Yu Wenlang hurriedly said: "What the prince said is that you are the guests of Daqi, so naturally you have to give an explanation." ”

There was no danger, and the Da Zhou delegation continued to go towards the embassy under Yu Wenlang's escort.

In the teahouse not far away, An Ruyi and Yu Wenrui witnessed the assassination process just now, but their faces did not fluctuate.

"It seems that the assassination hat has to be put on our heads. Yu Wenrui said coldly.

An Ruyi smiled: "Not necessarily, Yan Qinghan is not a fool, so he can naturally see the greasy in it." ”

Yu Wenrui was disdainful: "Even if he knows that it wasn't us, he may not be able to push the boat down the river, don't forget, there are a lot of grievances between us." ”

An Ruyi raised her eyebrows slightly, but it was undeniable.

At the beginning, they planned to use the method of suppressing the Great Zhou to gain the recognition of the court, as long as they could attack the city of the Great Zhou and suppress the Great Zhou, no one dared to question Yuwenrui's ability.

This is a shortcut for them to take the crown prince, but it's a pity that they didn't expect to kill Shen Yanshu halfway.

I didn't expect Yan Qinghan to be alive, I didn't expect Pei Yao and Yan Qinghan to cooperate so well.

As soon as he thought of this, Yu Wenrui's eyes were filled with waves.

An Ruyi said: "Now that the matter has passed, it has proved that this road is not working, and it is not too late for us to change the road." ”

Yu Wenrui said: "The eldest brother and the fifth brother will definitely not let go of this opportunity to win over Da Zhou." ”

An Ruyi said: "Then it depends on whether they have the ability or not." ”

Yu Wenrui said: "My father asked my eldest brother to receive Yan Qinghan and them, which must have a deep meaning, but looking at the appearance of my eldest brother, I think I want to live up to my father's expectations." ”

An Ruyi picked up a cup of tea and took a sip gently, but the corners of her mouth were filled with a smile.

"Isn't that right?" He put down the teaglass, "Let's do it again." ”

Yu Wenrui's brows were still furrowed, as if he was thinking about other issues.

An Ruyi said: "What are you thinking?"

"Shen Yanshu. Yu Wenrui said, "I'm thinking about what her identity is." According to the news we came back, she and Yan Qinghan are already married, and the envoy Shen Kangzhi this time is her father, why didn't she come with the envoy?"

He has always been very strange, and even thinks that even Yan Qinghan and Shen Kangzhi may not know her identity.

An Ruyi said: "Maybe it's because of Huo Killing." ”

Yu Wenrui asked, "Then why didn't she live with Huo Shu in the Cherish Tea House?"

An Ruyi said: "She is indeed the key, she has been unknown from the beginning, since we can't control her, why not just pull her in?"

Yu Wenrui shook his head decisively: "As far as Shen Yanshu and our festival are concerned, do you think she will trust us?" What's more, Shen Yanshu is just a woman, it is undeniable that she does have some ability, but it is related to the overall situation, and she can play a limited role." ”

Hearing Yu Wenrui's words, An Ruyi disagreed, but the matter was undecided, he only said: "Just try it." ”

Maybe An Ruyi once looked down on Shen Yanshu, but now he has already seen Shen Yanshu's strength, this is a person with great power.

Whoever can conquer this woman will get an unexpected harvest.

Early the next morning, Yu Wenrui was unsurprisingly summoned by the emperor.

In the imperial study, there are also Yuwen Lang, Yuwen Lingxiao and An Taishi.

The emperor looked at Yu Wenrui, his eyes full of scrutiny.

"Why did my father summon his sons?" Yu Wenrui asked, breaking the silence.

Seeing that he seemed completely unaware, the emperor snorted coldly and said, "Don't you know in your own heart?"

Yu Wenrui bowed his waist with his armrests and said to the emperor: "My son doesn't know, I hope my father will make it clear!"

"The third brother still don't pretend, there is no Great Zhou envoy here, and the emperor is already the emperor's special care for you. The eldest prince Yu Wenlang said.

His appearance made Yu Wenrui even more confused.

Yu Wenrui said: "I don't know what the eldest brother is referring to?"

Seeing Yu Wenrui's unconsciously appearance, the emperor's eyes sank, and he threw an arrow in his hand directly in front of Yu Wenrui.

"This is the special arrow of the Imperial Prince's Mansion Guard, you sent troops to assassinate King Ling of the Great Zhou, what else can you say!" the emperor asked in a loud voice.

Yu Wenrui looked down and saw that the arrow did have the mark of the Prince's Mansion on it.

His face did not change, and he only said: "There are many princes, how can the father be sure that he is a son?"

The emperor said, "Who else wants to put them to death but you?"

Yu Wenrui said: "Once the envoy of the Great Zhou is assassinated, then the son is the head of everyone's suspicion, how could the son be stupid enough to use the guards of the prince's palace to assassinate them!"

Everyone said that he Yu Wenrui and Da Zhou couldn't get along, and he found trouble with Da Zhou several times, and even personally led troops to attack Da Zhou's city.

But in the end it didn't work, and he held a grudge and would definitely want to sabotage the peace talks.

However, this well-known thing, how could Yu Wenrui not think of it, how could he so blatantly use the guards in the prince's mansion to assassinate Yan Qinghan?

The Emperor looked at the arrow and hesitated for a moment.

Yu Wenlang said: "Since the third brother said that he didn't do it, then who did it?"

Yu Wenrui said coldly: "I won't deny what I've done, but I won't take anything I haven't done." It's just that the eldest brother is the envoy and receptionist, and this kind of thing happened, so he should find out clearly. ”

The study suddenly became quiet.

This is to accuse the eldest prince of dereliction of duty.

Yu Wenlang's eyes drooped and said, "The third brother is very right, this is my duty, so I will definitely find out who did it." ”

Yu Wenrui said: "How can this be investigated? If someone guards and steals, I don't know who will suffer." ”

"You!" Yu Wenlang heard Yu Wenrui say this, glared at him angrily, and said in a loud voice, "Third brother's words are serious, how could I do this!"

The two are-for-tat, you come and go, Yuwen Lingxiao, who was on the side, looked at this posture, but the corners of his mouth raised a sneer.

The emperor looked at them and just said in a deep voice: "Okay, stop arguing!"

Both of them fell silent, but their expressions were unconvinced.

The Emperor's gaze swept over them, and finally at Yuwen Lingxiao.

"Old Five, what do you think?"

Yuwen Lingxiao took a step forward and saluted: "Erchen thinks that the troublemaking is big, and every prince is suspicious, and Erchen is no exception, so it should be handed over to a capable minister to investigate this matter." ”

His words made the emperor's face soften, and then he looked at An Taishi.

"What does the Master think?"

An Huaijin said: "It's up to the emperor to decide." ”

The emperor's eyes flashed slightly, and he said, "Then this matter will be handed over to the Criminal Department for thorough investigation." ”

Several people raised their hands and bowed their heads to obey the emperor's will.

After all, when it comes to peace talks between the two countries, they naturally can't slack off, but now they don't know what the conditions put forward by Yan Li, the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The emperor said: "Since Lang'er had an accident this time, then the palace banquet to welcome the envoys of the Great Zhou Dynasty will be made by Ling Xiao." ”

When Yu Wenlang heard this, he was about to explain something, but he saw the emperor wave his hand and say, "Let's go down." ”

A flash of remorse flashed in his eyes, and then he bowed and retreated.

Yuwen Lingxiao walked fast, as if this matter had nothing to do with him at all, Yuwen Rui glanced at Yuwen Lang and threw away his sleeves.

As soon as the Great Zhou envoy arrived in Lin'an, he was assassinated, and it spread all over the streets and alleys for a while.

At that time, there were a lot of onlookers, but the scene was chaotic, and in the end they all escaped, but now there are many people in the teahouse who are talking about the exciting scene.

"That King Ling of the Great Zhou is really worthy of being the God of War of the Great Zhou, where will those killers be his opponents, I can only say that it is too late and then it will be ...... soon"

Shen Yanshu was wearing a simple white robe, her hair was tied up high, and her thick sword eyebrows were drawn, and she swaggered into this teahouse, looking like a little boy.

She took Ah Qi directly to the second floor, listened to the people in the lobby downstairs tell the story of the assassination, raised her eyebrows slightly, and pushed open the door of a private room.

The people sitting in the private room were not others, but Yan Qinghan and Chu Linche, who everyone downstairs was talking about.

Shen Yanshu stepped forward and asked, "I heard that you were assassinated, were you injured?"

Yan Qinghan looked at Shen Yanshu, her eyes were full of soft color: "It's okay." ”

Chu Linche, who was on the side, looked at Yan Qinghan's appearance, and sighed a few times, but did not speak.

Shen Yanshu said: "According to internal information, it was the guards of the Prince's Mansion who assassinated you, but I don't know which Prince's Mansion it was, could it be Yuwenrui?"

Chu Linche shook his head and said, "Qinghan and I both feel that it is not Yu Wenrui's hand. ”

Shen Yanshu turned his head to look at him: "Why?"

"The killers we met that day didn't really want to kill us, they just seemed to want to scare us and bluff, so when Mo Bai made a move, they immediately withdrew. Chu Linche said.

Hearing them say this, Shen Yanshu frowned slightly, with Yu Wenrui's temperament, he shouldn't have done such a thing.

If he wanted to, he only needed to let people kill Yan Qinghan with all his strength, and there was no need to leave a handle.
