Contract Prince

Chapter 50 Angry

Regarding the relationship between herself and Her Royal Highness, Gu Yunjing was unwilling to reveal more to Yu Wenyan.She turned the topic to this assassination case, and pondered: "This case is not trivial, and the minds of the people behind the scenes are really extraordinary. They took advantage of the contradiction between you and me, and imperceptibly pushed the crime on you."

Yu Wenyan's mind is not as good as Gu Yunjing's, and he can't think of a deeper stake in it. He asked: "How to say?"

"You and I were at the royal hunting ground during the day, and there was a rift. Everyone present knew that I made the monarch lose face. After the banquet in the evening, the princess and I were assassinated by assassins." Gu Yunjing rubbed his fingers, "No, To be precise, the target of the assassin is me, and Her Royal Highness is just being implicated by me."

"Obviously, everyone will immediately guess that this matter is mostly related to the monarch." Gu Yunjing continued to analyze, "Therefore, His Majesty will naturally think so. Her Royal Highness is the emperor's favorite treasure. Now her life and death are uncertain. Your Majesty I will definitely put this blame on you. The grievances between the monarch and His Majesty have been going on for a long time, I am afraid that our emperor is going to punish you drastically at this moment."

Hearing what Gu Yunjing said, Yu Wenyan understood.

"The bastard behind this scene is really ruthless!" Yu Wenyan cursed, "How dare you pour dirty water on me. If you find out who did it, and don't hack him into pieces, I will kill you!" Not Yu Wenyan!"

Although Yu Wenyan was dissatisfied with Xiao Guan, but at the moment he was still in Xiao Country, and his army was stationed in Southern Chu, separated by thousands of mountains and rivers.What if Xiao Guan became angry and tried every means to deal with him?According to Xiao Guan's personality, it's not that he can't do this.

Yu Wenyan really wanted to deal with Xiao Guo, but he knew it was impossible at the moment.Because the power of Southern Chu alone cannot compete with Xiao Guo, although the strength of Xiao Guo's army is not as good as before, but after all, there are several experienced marshals and generals such as Gu Wei in command.

If Southern Chu really went to war with Xiao Guo, there would be only one result: one thousand wounds to the enemy, eight hundred self-sufficiencies.

Yu Wenyan is not a fool, he will not do this kind of thankless business.Even if he wanted to destroy Xiao country, he still needed the help of Xiliang people.As far as the current situation is concerned, he can't openly break his face with Xiao Guan.

"Your Majesty the emperor can't be so stupid." Yu Wenyan glared, "This is obviously framing, can he not see it?"

Gu Yunjing didn't hold back, and opened the skylight to speak bluntly: "It has nothing to do with whether you can see it or not. If your majesty wants to punish you, you can just take advantage of this. Therefore, you need to find a way to protect yourself as soon as possible, and then leave safely. Xiao Guo."

"Are you helping me?" Yu Wenyan didn't understand Gu Yunjing's intention.According to common sense, he is Gu Yunjing's rival in love, and the son-in-law should hate him.

Gu Yunjing said lightly: "It's sort of."

Yu Wenyan asked puzzled, "Why?"

"Although I hate you, I don't want to see you being wronged for no reason, and I don't want the real murderer to go unpunished. If they can't kill me this time, they will rack their brains to kill me next time. This one If the tumor remains, it will be a great disaster."

"Furthermore, I am very grateful that you are willing to find snow spirit grass for Her Royal Highness." When Gu Yunjing faced Yu Wenyan, his tone was so frank and gentle for the first time, "This is also my way of expressing gratitude. A way of love."

"But..." Yu Wenyan hesitated to speak, what he wanted to say was that he was the king of Southern Chu, and from the standpoint of the country, Southern Chu would meet with Xiao Guo one day sooner or later.After thinking about it carefully, Yu Wenyan swallowed these words back to his stomach. After all, it is better not to let Gu Yunjing know his thoughts easily.

He changed his way of asking: "If you help me like this, you are not afraid of letting the tiger go back to the mountain? Are you afraid that I will do something that is not good for Xiao Guo in the future?"

Gu Yunjing seemed to have seen through Yu Wenyan's mind, and said seriously: "If you really lead an army to attack Xiao Guo in the future, as a citizen of Xiao Guo, it is my duty to defend my family and resist foreign aggression. "

"However, you haven't done this yet. I can't watch Her Royal Highness's savior being persecuted."

"Aren't you afraid that I will snatch the sixth princess with you in the future?"

"I'm afraid." Gu Yunjing replied truthfully, "But a gentleman is magnanimous, and what he does is naturally magnanimous. If I want to get rid of you by immoral means because you like the sixth princess, then I think a person like me is worthy Not the sixth princess."

Gu Yunjing is a person who distinguishes between public and private, and has her own set of principles in her heart.No matter when and where, she will not violate this principle.

Gu Yunjing's words made Yu Wenyan stand in awe.He admired: "I really didn't expect you to be so profoundly righteous. To be honest, I really admire you, Gu Yunjing. No matter how the situation on the battlefield changes, I, Yu Wenyan, you are my friend!"

"Thanks to the high regard of the monarch."

"There is no high opinion, not high opinion at all, you can afford it." Yu Wenyan paused, and asked Gu Yunjing for help: "My son-in-law, what do you think, how should I get out?"

"Don't worry, I will persuade His Majesty. If I can't persuade you, I have other alternatives." Gu Yunjing cupped his hands and said, "I hope that the monarch will get the Snow Spirit Grass as soon as possible to save His Highness the Princess in danger, please. "

For the first time, Yu Wenyan waved back his hand and said: "Don't worry, my son-in-law, I will. This matter is on me!" After finishing speaking, he strode back to the post house.

Sure enough, as Gu Yunjing expected, after the princess was assassinated, Xiao Guan directly pointed the finger at Yu Wenyan.Analyzing from various aspects, Yu Wenyan has the motive of committing the crime.

Xiao Guan lingered in the imperial study room full of thoughts. At this moment, he wanted to get rid of Yu Wenyan, but because he couldn't find any evidence, he couldn't do it right away.After all, Yu Wenyan is still the monarch of Southern Chu, even if he is killed, he must find a legitimate reason.

Xiao Guan didn't dare to do it lightly, and there was another reason why he was deeply scrupulous.That is, all countries have clearly stipulated that when foreign monarchs and envoys contribute tribute to the upper state, the upper state shall not detain them without reason.This regulation is a bit similar, the two armies do not kill each other when they are at war.

However, if clues can be found, even if Yu Wenyan is killed immediately, no one would dare to say a bad word.Therefore, Xiao Guan desperately hopes that Yu Wenyan can show his feet.

"Your Majesty, Lu Zhong asks to see you." Just as Xiao Guan frowned, Chen Huaisheng came to report.

"Xuan."

"Your Majesty, Lu Zhong, bows to His Majesty."

"Exemption."

"Your Majesty, I heard that the Sixth Princess was assassinated. Is it true?" After Xiao Muxue's accident, Lu Zhong wanted to go to the palace immediately to seek an audience.But after being reminded by Yu Liangyi, he thought it would be better to enter the palace in a few days.Therefore, today is the day chosen.

After Xiao Guan nodded slightly, he said solemnly: "This matter is true."

Lu Zhong pretended to be very anxious: "How is the situation of the sixth princess now?"

"Unconscious, life and death are uncertain, and even the imperial doctors are helpless." As an emperor, Xiao Guan is the first time to deeply understand what it means to be powerless.

"Did your majesty find out who did it?" Lu Zhong asked intentionally, and then he said with righteous indignation, "These assassins dare to murder the princess, they are simply audacious!"

Xiao Guan shook his head: "Jiang Shitang is investigating the case, and we still don't know who did the murder?"

Lu Zhonggong said: "Your Majesty, I don't know if I should say something or not."

"speak."

"I feel that this case is very strange."

"What's so strange?"

Lu Zhong came up with the rhetoric that was brewing in his heart: "The princess and the son-in-law were on the hunting ground during the day, which made Yu Wenyan lose face. And after the banquet at night, they were assassinated. Doesn't your majesty think that there is something inextricably linked in this?" Do you want to contact me?"

Lu Zhong's words hit Xiao Guan's heart, and the emperor said: "In your opinion, Yu Wenyan sent someone to do this?"

"This is exactly what I guessed. I heard that Her Royal Highness was injured in order to protect the son-in-law. Apart from Yu Wenyan, I really can't think of anyone who would hate the son-in-law so much?" Lu Zhong reacted very excitedly, wishing to get rid of Yu Wenyan. Quickly, "The barbarians are really despicable and shameless! I implore Your Majesty to punish Yu Wenyan quickly!"

Xiao Guan said in embarrassment: "I also feel that this matter has something to do with Yu Wenyan, but after all, this is just a guess, and there is not enough evidence. Just convict Yu Wenyan in this way, and I am afraid that it will be tongue-tied. Those who come here in the future Foreign countries that pay tribute, I'm afraid they will be worried about this."

"Yes," Lu Zhong saw that Xiao Guan was unmoved, and continued, "Your Majesty, the Sixth Princess cannot be poisoned for nothing."

"Xue'er is my sweetheart. I will definitely seek justice for her."

No matter how much Xiao Guan loves Xiao Muxue, he still has a measure in his heart.You can't kill Yu Wenyan without evidence just because you love your daughter.It is not terrible to kill Yu Wenyan, what is terrible is, who will dare to come to Xiao Kingdom to pay tribute in the future.

Seeing that the emperor's attitude was so firm, Lu Zhong couldn't say anything more.No matter how strong the words are, they often make people suspicious.

"Your Majesty, after the sixth princess's accident, I can hardly sleep or eat. What I think about most every day is to find the murderer for Her Royal Highness." Lu Zhong kowtowed, "I implore Your Majesty, let me assist Commander Jiang to thoroughly investigate this case , so that the real culprit can be caught as soon as possible."

Lu Zhong is the son of the emperor Lu Lin, because of this special relationship, Xiao Guan also appreciates Lu Zhong.Seeing that Lu Zhong was so worried about the princess, he couldn't help having a good impression of him, and readily agreed: "Okay, let's play. Lu Zhong, you must help Jiang Shitang well and strive to solve the case as soon as possible."

"Your Majesty, if no clues can be found in this case, wouldn't Yu Wenyan always be at large?"

"If that's the case, then you are a bunch of smugglers!" Every time Xiao Guan saw that his courtiers were useless, he felt annoyed.

Looking at the gloomy face of the emperor, Lu Zhong hurriedly added, "Your Majesty, please calm down. The minister said that Yu Wenyan was scheming, and he must have made this matter perfect. If your majesty can't uphold justice for the sixth princess , that will hurt the hearts of the subjects of the Xiao Kingdom."

"A random bandit from Southern Chu can easily murder Her Royal Highness, the most honorable Princess of the Xiao Kingdom. If this news gets out, the common people will definitely say that Your Majesty is afraid of Yu Wenyan." Lu Zhong whispered.

Lu Zhong's last words can be said to add fuel to the fire, completely arousing Xiao Guan's desire to kill Yu Wenyan.

"Hmph, the proud son of heaven, who is alone in the world, how can he be afraid of a barbarian from the south! You are right, how can I spare this tyrannical bandit leader for nothing." Xiao Guan thought carefully for a while, and said, "In ten days For a while, it’s best if you can find evidence. If you can’t find it, just come up with some evidence. I’m going to make Yu Wenyan feel overwhelmed and walk around!”

Lu Zhong could well understand what Xiao Guan meant by the word "Nong", he immediately said: "Your Majesty is wise, I will do it now, and I will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty!"

He burst into laughter in his heart, thinking that this time he could get rid of his rival in love.The only fly in the ointment is that Gu Yunjing was not eliminated this time.But the future is long, and it is worth celebrating to get rid of Yu Wenyan, a strong rival in love.

Xiao Guan was tired, he couldn't help rubbing his brows, and waved to Lu Zhong, "Kneel down."

After exiting the imperial study, Lu Zhong smiled triumphantly, and said silently: Yu Wenyan, Yu Wenyan, your time of death has arrived.This time it's you, next time it's Gu Yunjing's turn.I want you to know that people who rob women with me, Lu Zhong, usually end badly.
