Chapter 709: Not a Good Bird

When Xilingshang followed Suo Xinzhi to the Thirteenth Prince's Mansion, there were already many guests gathered here, most of them were royal nobles, or high-ranking officials of the Marquis, all of whom were illustrious.

Suo Xinzhi called the head of the house aside, and said in a stern voice: "What the hell is going on?"

The head of the Prince's Mansion is also a monk, and he casually placed a ban, and then said in a low voice: "We initially suspect that someone secretly moved his hands and feet to scatter stacks of divine incense in the practice room of His Royal Highness the Prince. Fortunately, the prince had a strange treasure to protect his body, so he did not die on the spot. As long as you take care of yourself for a while, your injuries will recover quickly. ”

Suo Xinzhi breathed a sigh of relief, and then his face turned pale: "Find out who did it?"

The head manager's face was a little ugly and said: "Two suspects have been arrested, and the other four guards on duty have also been charged with taking care of the prince's twelve slaves and maids, and they are also under house arrest." It's just that these people are very dishonest, and they can't find out who is behind the scenes for a while. ”

Suo Xinzhi said coldly: "Are you eating dry rice? Within three days, if you can't find the murderer, you can roll up the straw mat and leave." ”

"Yes. The manager said with a sweat on his forehead.

"No matter who it is, don't let me dig it out, when the time comes, I will avenge the blood hatred of the thirteenth brother. Suo Xinzhi let out a low roar like a beast.

"By the way, the eldest prince and the second prince happen to be in the ward, do you want to ...... the fifth prince?"

"I'll go in and have a look. Suo Xinzhi's expression quickly returned to calm, and he stepped in.

The thirteenth prince lay on the bed and fell asleep all the time, his face pale without a trace of blood.

On the edge of the bed, the eldest prince Suo Xinba and the second prince Suo Xinxiong sat there.

When they saw Suo Xinzhi coming in, they lowered their heads and signaled, and their eyes staggered one after another.

Zheng Zheng and Xi Lingsheng's eyes quietly looked at the two princes, especially Suo Xinxiong, who obviously stayed for a longer time.

Suo Xinba is the same as his name, domineering, not angry but mighty, very stylish.

Suo Xinxiong has a long and handsome appearance, dark blue eyes are extremely attractive, and there is always a smile on his lips, which is quite attractive to women. If it weren't for listening to Bu Shishuang talk about how he was debauched and how he messed up the harem, it would be really difficult to see from the appearance that this guy was so lustful.

The three princes walked to a corner and whispered a few words of discussion.

Baili Sheng didn't know what they were talking about, but they seemed to be unhappy with each other, and it seemed that there was an argument.

When he was young, Suo Xinzhi's face was gloomy and he said in a deep voice: "Let's go." ”

Xilingshang wisely didn't ask much.

There are some things that people who should know will naturally know, and those who should not know may not be a good thing to ask.

After leaving the palace, Suo Xinzhi couldn't help but speak: "My two elder brothers really have a good idea and want my younger brother to be the first bird, do they really think that my father will always ignore it?"

Xilingshang could only take advantage of the situation and said, "What do they want to do?"

"What are you doing?" Suo Xinzhi sneered: "They want this prince to falsify criminal evidence, and directly testify that the third prince sent someone to assassinate the thirteenth brother during the festival, intending to directly block him in the heart of morality and father." ”

Xilingshang responded: "This is a good way. But first, time is pressing, and second, the whole thing has not been clarified. Fabricate indiscriminately, just afraid that when the time comes, I will lift a stone and shoot myself in the foot. ”

Suo Xinzhi agreed: "Exactly if." But my wonderful eldest brother, who couldn't make a plan, made another plan, actually wanted me to send someone to assassinate the third brother, in the name of it, to try the strength of the other party. ”

Xiling Shang's heart moved, and he hurriedly said: "Assassinating the prince in the Holy City? That's a big deal, are their brains caught in the door? Or are they stupid to be kicked by pigs? On the night of the festival, it is the most heavily guarded time, what is the difference between assassinating the prince at this time and looking for death?"

"Hmph. Suo Xinzhi smiled and said: "It seems that this prince also needs to prepare more back, these two brothers are not fuel-efficient lamps." ”

Xilingshang nodded in agreement.

After returning to the fifth prince's mansion outside the palace, Suo Xinzhi hurriedly asked his staff to discuss the news he got today.

Xiling was led by the guards to a side room.

After the idlers left, Xiling Shang repeatedly laid down multiple prohibitions, and then carefully inspected for a long time, and found that there was no monitoring weapon, so he whispered: "Zheng, the situation seems to have changed again." ”

The Golden Retriever said, "Not bad." Now that the imperial capital is surging, there will be new situations anytime and anywhere. So we have to be careful. At this time, the thirteenth prince was plotted, and there must be a deep intention behind it. Could it be that someone wants to cut off the wings of the fifth prince? Listen to you, as soon as the prince and grandson are the emperors, Suo Xinzhi will have a better relationship with Suo Xinyu. ”

Xilingshang agreed: "It's very likely. ”

The Golden Retriever continued: "There's just one thing I don't understand. With the methods of the eldest prince and the second prince, how could they stupidly let Suo Xinzhi fabricate false evidence and falsely accuse Suo Xinzhi on the day of the festival? Could it be that he wants to kill two birds with one stone?"

Xiling Sheng groaned, her eyes flashed like jewels, and she said happily: "Zheng, you think about the princes too simply, right?"

The Golden Retriever shook his head, "No, I never underestimate anyone. To look down on others is to look down on one's own life. But from this incident just now, I suddenly thought of something. ”

"What's the matter?" Xilingshang said curiously.

"The prince has joined forces, Suo Xinchao must have gotten the news, then he will also have all the preparations. So the question is, if the third prince really invites the people of the Kuoyue Palace, does he want to catch them all, or assassinate them one by one?"

Xiling Sheng smiled dumbly and said: "This question will only be clear when the time comes." The golden retriever said twice: "If I am the eldest prince, the most simple, direct and ruthless way is to directly put Lao Tzu down." If I am the third prince and have such a good card in my hand, I will definitely come out of the nest on the night of the harvest and carry out the beheading operation; if I am Suo Xinzhi, I will only shrink behind my back at this time, drive the tiger and devour the tiger, and lead the water to the east. ”

Xiling Sheng was dumbfounded when he heard this, and said in a lost voice: "Zheng, you are not so vicious, right?"

The golden retriever whined twice, indicating his pride and dissatisfaction at the same time.

Could it be that I have watched too many dramas about the palace prince seizing the throne before, so I have such a good experience?

Xi Lingshang sighed and said, "Fortunately, they can't hear what you say, otherwise the probability of success is extremely high." ”

The golden retriever was moved, and sneered: "Don't say it, this possibility is very good." None of the princes are good birds. ”
