The beginning of Tianlong is second to Murong Fu

Chapter 253 Uncover the Mystery
Royal Palace.

Song Zhezong's bedroom.

"Your Majesty, don't you understand now? Don't you think it's strange that the prince rushed over after something happened to Xu Zhu? He must have held grudges about being kidnapped last time, so he specially sent Xu Zhu here today. Assassinate the concubine!"

Concubine Song looked at Song Zhezong, shed tears while talking.

"Jingxuan!"

Song Zhezong frowned, hesitated, looked at the prince, and said in a deep voice.

"Father, my son is indeed going to intercede for someone today!"

The prince arched his hands and said respectfully.

"Say!"

Song Zhezong frowned, glanced at Xiao Jun, looked at the prince and said in a deep voice.

"My son believes that Concubine Song dared to speak nonsense in front of Emperor Father because she was eager for her son. If it turns out that Mr. Xu Zhu is not an assassin, I beg Father not to blame Imperial Concubine Song for slandering me. Sin, after all, he is Xiaoyi's mother, if there is any sin, I am willing to bear it for her."

The prince looked at Song Zhezong and said seriously.

After hearing the prince's words, everyone at the scene couldn't help being stunned, especially Concubine Song.

But Xiao Jun couldn't help but nodded in surprise.

If the crown prince pleads for him, even if he is innocent, he may be provoked by someone with a heart, and it is more likely that Song Zhezong will be dissatisfied.

"Stop being hypocritical, I'm afraid you wish I could die on the spot right away?! What if Xu Zhu is really an assassin?!"

Concubine Song glared at the prince, and said loudly, her emotions gradually lost control, and she could no longer see the demeanor and demeanor that a noble concubine should have.

Looks more like an angry shrew.

"If Mr. Xu Zhu is really an assassin, then I will be the first one not to tolerate him!"

The prince looked at Concubine Song and said firmly.

Seeing the prince expressing his attitude so quickly, Concubine Song was stunned for a moment, speechless for a while.

"Sir, do you have something to say?"

Song Zhezong cast his eyes on Xiao Jun with a sullen face, and asked slowly.

After hearing Song Zhezong's words, Xiao Jun stood up slowly, glanced at Concubine Song who was kneeling on the ground, and Qin Yu who was carried in by Guan Hongfeng's men early in the morning and lay far away on the ground.

"Since His Majesty has asked, I will naturally know everything."

Xiao Jun cupped his hands at Song Zhezong, said indifferently, and then looked at Li Rong who had been standing beside Song Zhezong again.

"Eunuch Li, did you and I really encounter an assassin who sneaked into the palace when we entered the palace?"

Xiao Jun looked at Li Rong and asked indifferently.

"Sir, the servant has admitted just now that when he entered the palace, he did find someone secretly sneaked into the palace. At that time, everyone thought it was an assassin, but the servant does not dare to say who it is now."

Li Rong arched his hands and said slowly.

"It doesn't matter. In short, an unknown person has sneaked into the palace, so I and the guards chased them out one after another. Eunuch Li also hurried to report to His Majesty. But when I chased this person all the way to Yonghan Palace , that person suddenly disappeared, and I am sure that that person was hiding in the Eternal Cold Palace at that time."

As Xiao Jun said, he turned and looked at Concubine Song who was kneeling on the ground.

"But when I was about to search, Concubine Song quietly appeared, and it seemed as if she had been waiting for me. A concubine without any martial arts, when she saw someone suddenly appearing in her palace at night There is no sign of fear, not even a trace of panic, which is not in line with common sense."

"Let me just think that Concubine Song is courageous and calm when things happen, but it didn't take long before dozens of guards rushed in, all of them holding bows and arrows, as if they had been waiting in front of the Eternal Cold Palace for a long time. outside the same,"

"And it didn't take long before Commander Qin appeared. Without any evidence, just because he was holding a handful of crossbow arrows that he took off when he was chasing the enemy, he decided that he was an assassin. Grab it, isn't all of this a bit too logical?"

Xiao Jun said calmly while pacing on the ground.

All the people present listened attentively, and followed Xiao Jun's narration to restore the situation at that time.

"I want to ask Your Majesty, do you know who the person who assassinated the prince was a few days ago?"

Xiao Jun turned to look at Song Zhezong, and asked slowly.

"All the murderers have escaped. At present, we don't know who the other party is, and we are still investigating."

Song Zhezong frowned and said in a deep voice.

"You don't need to check. I already know who they are. Before entering the palace, I went to visit Deputy Commander Chu who was recuperating at home. According to his description, I dare to assert that the person who assassinated the prince was a blood clan. Speaking of blood clan, Everyone may be a little unfamiliar, but when it comes to another faction that belongs to the same line as the blood race, I believe everyone will be familiar with it."

Xiao Jun glanced at everyone and said lightly.

"What power?"

Song Zhezong narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice.

"Longevity Gate! It's the group who once kidnapped the prince!"

Xiao Jun said without thinking.

After hearing Xiao Jun's words, everyone present was surprised again.

"Why did the Longevity Gate kidnap the prince? Why did the blood clan kill the prince now? There must be some connection between the two things. But the most important thing is, why can they come and go freely in this huge palace? Even This person who has been in the palace several times, I am afraid that it is almost impossible to find the prince's bedroom in a short period of time without being discovered by anyone, right?"

"But they are obviously two people, and it has been so long, why can they still be so comfortable in the palace?"

Xiao Jun looked at the crowd and said calmly.

"There is a traitor!"

Li Rong who was standing beside Song Zhezong couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Also, on the day of the assassination, Commander Qin claimed to have discovered that the assassin was going to assassinate His Majesty, but in the end he failed to catch up with the assassin. Instead, the prince was almost assassinated by the blood clan! And Commander Qin didn't show up until the blood clan fled,"

"Tonight, Commander Qin, who was supposed to be guarding the prince's bedroom, happened to appear in the Yonghan Palace in time by coincidence, and ordered the archers to shoot arrows as soon as he appeared. If I remember correctly, when the prince was tied up, the At that time, the person in charge of guarding the palace should also be Commander Qin, right? Isn’t all this a bit too coincidental?”

As Xiao Jun said, he turned his head to look at Qin Yu who was lying motionless not far away.

After hearing Xiao Jun's words, everyone turned their eyes to Qin Yu, as if they understood something at once.

"As for why it's such a coincidence, we only need to wait for Commander Qin to wake up and find out after the first trial."

Xiao Jun looked at Song Zhezong again, and said lightly.

At this time, Song Zhezong's face was so gloomy that it was frightening. Apart from not expressing conclusions, what Xiao Jun said actually contained a deep meaning. There is no need to say anything more. A sensible person can sum up something.

"There is one more thing I haven't said yet, and that is the person I'm chasing after tonight. Judging by his outfit, he is also a member of the blood clan!"

While talking, Xiao Jun looked again at Concubine Song who was kneeling on the ground without speaking for a long time.

At this time, Concubine Song knelt on the ground blankly, staring blankly at Xiao Jun with despair in her eyes.
