Tibetan beads

Chapter 264
The emperor was getting angry, so naturally Wang Duan would not go to the trouble, and he was always ignorant, so how could he complain in person, so he went to the side to express his condolences after saluting.

"Madam Yu, Mrs. Yu, and Ms. Yu, please express my condolences." Duan Wang said clichés, but his face was sincere.

The crying of the Yu family stopped, except Madam Yu, they all looked up at him, their eyes were full of hatred.

King Duan immediately understood that the Yu family thought he had killed him.

Also, Yu Chong died at this time, his benefits are the greatest.Even if it is Zhao Guogong, anyway, the emperor has already become suspicious, so there is no need to worry for a while.

But he really didn't do this, so King Duan reassured him without guilt at all: "This king wants to have a drink with General Yu, but I didn't expect such an accident to happen. The world is really impermanent."

Seeing his sincerity, Yu Manqing wished to rush up and tear his face off, but in the end, concerned about his father's reputation, he gritted his teeth and lowered his head.

Seeing her like this, several young masters of Yu also looked away.

King Duan knew they didn't believe it, but since Yu Chong was dead, he had nothing to fear, so he didn't care.

Not long after, the people he arranged came over.

"Your Majesty, I do have a guess."

The emperor was annoyed at the moment, annoyed: "Say!"

"Your Majesty is out today, and the Daguangming Temple is heavily guarded. Where the Jingxin Pavilion is located, the one that can hit General Yu must be a heavy bow or crossbow. This is a sharp weapon in the army. Where can ordinary people get it? It just so happened that General Yu offended General Yu a few days ago. A general with a heavy army in his hand..."

The emperor's face changed, and so did the faces of the courtiers present.

He was talking about Duke Zhao!
If you think about it again, it makes sense.There are so many people who have trouble with Yu Chong, how come no one was against him before?It just so happened that he was assassinated not long after he had a feud with Duke Zhao.

Duke Zhao...is he too arrogant?This is telling the world that whoever dares to fight against him will end up like this?
Where is the emperor still in the eyes?
The emperor's face was sullen, and a few words came out between his teeth: "Where is Yan Er? Bring him here!"

The guards walked away.

Soon, Yan Ling was brought in, along with the crown prince.

As soon as he entered, the fruit plate in front of the emperor flew over and fell at his feet.

"Your Majesty..." Yan Ling called out in a daze, and then knelt down, "If the minister makes a mistake, His Majesty will punish you, don't get angry and hurt your body."

"Made a mistake?" The emperor looked at him coldly, "You also know that you made a mistake? You didn't invite it honestly! Maybe I see you as a well-behaved person these days, and let me take it lightly!"

Yan Ling looked blankly and glanced at the prince.

Just as the prince was about to speak, the emperor stopped him: "Don't speak for him, let him speak for himself!"

Yan Ling had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "I...shouldn't have pushed His Royal Highness to play games..."

"Who asked you to say this?" The emperor interrupted him impatiently, "Don't you just ignore the important and ignore the minor, do you think you can escape by doing so? Tell me! How did you kill General Yu?!"

Yan Ling was shocked when he heard the words, and shouted: "Your Majesty, I have been with the crown prince all this time, this matter has nothing to do with me!"

The prince quickly testified for him: "Yes, father! Yan Er has never left since he came. When General Yu had an accident, we were still watching the dragon boat race!"

The courtier who complained immediately blocked back: "His Royal Highness is joking, there is no need for Marquis Yan to do it himself. Duke Zhao's mansion is full of talents, isn't it surprising that there are several assassins with strong martial arts?"

When the emperor heard this, he was furious: "That's right! The Jingxin Pavilion is under the guard of the forbidden army. Unless you are a strong soldier in the army, how can you kill Yu Chong? Only you, Duke Zhao's mansion, have such a heavy bow and crossbow!"

Yanling complained: "Your Majesty! I really don't have any! The guards that I brought from Guanzhong are all clear, you can send someone to investigate."

The emperor didn't want to listen to his defense at all: "Who else is it if it's not you? I've never heard of General Yu having any enemies in the past, but he was murdered after he had a quarrel with your Duke Zhao's mansion. Who else did it if it wasn't you?" What did you do?"

"Your Majesty!" Yan Ling looked aggrieved: "I really didn't do anything! Please check clearly!"

Outside the shed, Princess Changning glanced at Xu Yin, and asked tentatively, "Ayin, do you think Yan Er did it?"

Xu Yin shook his head calmly: "I don't know."

Princess Changning said: "Yan Er is in trouble now, even if the assassin is caught, there is no way to prove that he didn't give the order, right?"

"Yes." Xu Yin said objectively, "Your Majesty is right. It is true that Duke Zhao's mansion is the most suspicious."

Princess Changning saw that she really didn't care, so she let go, and said: "I think the most suspicious person on the surface is not necessarily the murderer, and maybe he was used by others. Well, that's what those scripts say !"

Xu Yin couldn't help laughing: "What kind of scripts does the princess usually read?"

"Jiang Qingtian's Exoneration Record!" Princess Changning enthusiastically recommended, "This is a very good book. It tells the story of Jiang Qingtian, who repeatedly solved strange cases in the previous dynasty. I have a whole set!"

Xu Yin thought to himself, this kind of storybook often pretends to be famous people, but in fact it is all made up by the author himself, how can it be taken seriously.

Princess Changning obviously took it seriously, and began to reason seriously: "Looking at the time and place of the murder, the other party must have planned it for a long time. The murder method is so brutal, it seems to have the meaning of venting anger. The feud must be deep, right? General Yu is in control , there must be a lot of enemies in the army. Maybe some general has been feuding with him for a long time, and he took this opportunity to kill people, and took the opportunity to put the crime on Duke Zhao? Duke Zhao himself is not here, so there is no way to explain. General Yu died , the military power in his hand must be distributed to others. Afterwards, whoever gets the most benefits will be the most suspicious!"

Xu Yin couldn't help but laugh, this muddle-headed reasoning process actually led to the correct result, it seems that this story is not useless!

While the two were talking, another group of imperial guards came over, detaining two prisoners, one looked like a flower girl, and the other was no different from a roadside peddler.

Princess Changning pulled Xu Yin and whispered, "Why did the Imperial Army capture these two people? Could it be related to the assassins?"

Xu Yin was sure it was Xue Ru, and said meaningfully: "Maybe it's the same party."

……

In the main shed, Yan Ling couldn't argue with anything.

The emperor believed that he did it, and he didn't even want to hear it.

Suddenly, a report came from outside: "Your Majesty, the assassin has been caught."

The emperor gave him a hard look and said, "Come on!"

The corner of Duan Wang's mouth curled up, and he looked at the entrance with the mood of watching a play.

Then he saw two people escorted by the Imperial Army, he didn't realize it at first, when Xue Ru let out a cry of pain when the Imperial Army pushed them down, he suddenly looked at those two people, unbelievable.

Even though she changed her dress and changed her appearance, Duan Wang, who used to be a bedside person, was too familiar with this voice.

Xue Ru!How could it be Xue Ru?Isn't she already dead? !
