Chapter 6 Wu Linling's identity
The day after the engagement banquet, Yuan Lin visited Kowloon Mansion again.
For his arrival, everyone in Kowloon Mansion was very puzzled.
"What the hell is this guy up to, why is he running to us three times and twice?"
In the hall, Gongsun touched his chin, puzzled.
The rest of the crowd also shook their heads slightly.
Only Xuan Xi said: "I heard that the imperial brother said that he went to our court this time, in addition to negotiating peace on behalf of Jieli, it seems that he has another task, but what the task is, I don't know very well." ”
"The barbarian kingdom has been in conflict with our dynasty for many years, and isn't Jieli Khan the one who controlled Liu Chong and them in the case of the ghost army order in the first place?
Wu Dongtian thought for a while.
Chen Yutian suddenly smiled.
"I have heard a little about this matter, I heard that this Jieli Khan is now very old, and his control over the entire barbarian country is not as strong as before, and although he has two princes under his knees, these two are not successful, and it is difficult to guarantee that the throne will not fall into the hands of other people who have a heart in the future. In addition, I have now produced a god general Xuan Lingcang, this person knows the art of war and military science, only three years after arriving at the border, he made the barbarian army frightened, and I heard that every time he fights, the barbarian country will lose a lot of soldiers. ”
After hearing this, Wu Dongtian nodded suddenly.
"So, they're scared of us...... That's why you came to make peace?"
"This is only part of the reason, the most important thing is that now that he is old, I am afraid that he will die soon, he should want to help his two princes sit firmly in the position before he dies. After all, the situation in the barbarian country is different from ours. ”
Chen Yutian nodded slightly, and then looked at Xuan Xi.
"You just said that Yuan Lin has other tasks in the Central Plains in addition to talking about peace, so it seems that he should have something to do with this mission, but I don't know what he wants to do?"
"This kind of thing must not be guessed. We can only know when we see others. ”
Xue Tianhan touched his chin and said.
Chen Yutian nodded, and then looked outside the hall, where Li Qing was walking here with Yuan Lin.
Yesterday, when Xuan Ye was leaving, he gave all the elite of the Dragon Guard led by Li Qing and Meng Gang to Chen Yutian as a congratulatory gift, and now they have completely become the people of Jiulong Mansion.
"Yuanlin, I've seen Lord Chen and all the gods. ”
Yuan Linfang went to the temple and respectfully saluted everyone.
Chen Yutian smiled slightly and waved his hand.
"Your envoy is polite, I don't know if your envoy came today, what do you have to say?"
Yuan Lin smiled: "It's not a good thing to see a teacher, but it's really a request for something here." But before that, I hope that Tatsu-sama will let me see someone in the house first. ”
"Oh, who?" said Tatsu Yutian frowned.
"The flower girl who was in charge of scattering flowers at the engagement banquet yesterday. "The source is in the road.
Hearing this, Lin Dao and Gongsun on the side all changed their faces.
Chen Yutian pondered for a moment and spoke.
"I wonder why your envoy wants to see the flower girl?"
Yuan Lin smiled and said: "Don't hide it, Lord Chen, when I saw the flower girl in your mansion yesterday, I felt that she was very similar to a person I knew in the barbarian country, and it happened that person left the barbarian country not long ago and came to the Central Plains, so I want to meet the flower girl and make sure it is the person I know in the next place." ”
"I see. Chen Yutian nodded slightly.
Then, he glanced at Li Qing, who was on standby.
Li Qing understood and immediately left the hall.
"Please wait a moment, I have already sent for the flower girl. ”
Li Qing went out for only a moment, and then walked back with a young woman, this goddess with a hint of calm, it was Wu Linling who was rescued by everyone from Fengxue Villa.
As soon as he saw Wu Linling, Yuan Lin immediately became excited.
"Nine Princesses...... The old minister has finally found you......"
"Nine...... Nine Princesses?"
Hearing Yuan Lin's name to Wu Linling, everyone present couldn't help but be surprised!
"Ninth Princess, she is actually Jieli's daughter?"
A flash of surprise flashed in Chen Yutian's eyes, although he had already guessed the fact that Wu Linling should be a barbarian.
However, he didn't expect that Wu Linling would be the royal family of the barbarian country, and even the ninth princess of the barbarian country.
This is in the midst of being shocking!
It's even more bizarre, how could the nine princesses of the barbarian country run to the Central Plains martial arts?
Hearing the title of the ninth princess, Wu Linling was also stunned for a moment, but when she saw the face of the old man kneeling in front of her, she couldn't help but be taken aback.
"Taigong, why are you here?"
Her words are tantamount to admitting her identity as the ninth princess of the barbarian country.
"Ninth Princess, the old minister was ordered by the Khan to come to Daxuan to talk about peace, and in addition, the Great Khan also entrusted Lord Chen to help investigate the matter of the Lingfei. ”
Yuan Lin spoke slowly.
"Investigate the matter of the mother's concubine?"
Wu Linling's face was filled with disbelief.
Yuan Lin smiled bitterly, although he had expected this, but when he really saw the look on the face of the ninth princess, he was still a little surprised.
"He can't wait to put his mother to death, and he will come to Daxuan to entrust someone to investigate?"
Wu Linling suddenly sneered.
Yuan Lin smiled bitterly, "The Ninth Princess misunderstood...... The Great Khan had never believed that Concubine Ling would kill, and the reason why he made such a decision was also a stopgap measure. ”
Wu Linling was silent.
The people in the Kowloon Mansion on the side were even more inexplicable, and they didn't know what they were talking about.
Chen Yutian had to interrupt them.
"You two, I don't know what you're talking about?
Yuan Lin nodded.
"This is natural, after all, the Great Khan wants to entrust you to help investigate this matter, and the old man should tell the truth of the matter. ”
After that, he looked at Wu Linling on the side.
Wu Linling sighed.
"Say it...... Anyway, even if I don't have you here, I'm going to tell them about it to help. It's just that you're one step ahead of me. ”
Yuan Lin smiled and nodded, and then looked at the people in the Nine Dragon Mansion.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this matter has to start from a few months ago......"
"I guess you've all heard about the two princes of my barbarian kingdom, right?"
Everyone nodded, they had just mentioned this matter.
Yuan Lin sighed, "The whole thing has to start with these two princes......"
"The Great Khan is very old, and although he has many children under his knees, there are only two princes...... Although the two princes were not very successful, the Great Khan did not care much, but actively prepared for the succession. Originally, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty thought that the Great Khan would soon pass the throne to one of the two princes...... Until that day, the bad news of the violent death of the two princes suddenly came......"
Hearing this, everyone in the Nine Dragons Mansion couldn't help but change their expressions.
"Sudden death?" Xue Tianhan frowned.
"Or are they two at the same time?" Gongsun curious.
"Yes. On that day, within an hour, two bad news came in succession, and the sweat that had always been iron-blooded, extremely rare, fainted on the Wolf Chen Palace......"
The color of memory came to my eyes.
It's like being in that gray day again.
"Is it possible that two people died at the same time in one hour?"
Chen Yutian touched his chin and subconsciously looked at Gongsun.
Gongsun shook his head.
"It's almost impossible to do anything without human causes. Even if they all suffer from the same terminal illness, the chances of dying at the same time are slim to none. ”
"So it's very likely that the two princes didn't die of natural causes?" Huo Yuanji muttered.
Gongsun nodded slightly.
Wu Linling suddenly spoke.
"Mr. Gongsun is right, my two royal brothers did not die of natural causes. ”
"Since it is not a natural death, then it is a man-made killing, you only need to catch the murderer, why do you come all the way to Daxuan to ask for our help?"
Xuan Xi was curious.
"If it's really that simple, that's fine. Yuan Lin suddenly sighed.
Everyone's eyes involuntarily looked at him.
saw that Wu Linling also sighed at this time.
"Taigong is right, if things were really that simple, then there wouldn't be so many things happening later. ”
Chen Yutianxia frowned consciously.
"What do you mean by that?"
Wu Linling smiled bitterly.
"Although my two royal brothers did not die of natural causes, they did not die of human causes. ”
"Oh?"
"They ......" Wu Linling's face suddenly became solemn, "Strictly speaking, they all died in accidents." ”
