Uncle Guo, your heart thief has been promoted again

Chapter 157 Assassination
As Shui Hanzhou spoke, he suddenly turned back and walked back.

An Zhu frowned, followed Shui Hanzhou and asked, "My lord, aren't you going to see your empress? Why don't you go?"

"I'm not going, let's go to the East Palace first." Shui Hanzhou pursed his lips and strode forward.

After Lie Shan and Shui Hanzhou parted, Li Hong came back to the palace one step ahead of the emperor on the grounds that he was unwell.

He was leaning on the couch reading a book when he heard the news of Shui Hanzhou's arrival.

"Say I don't see Gu, let him go back and forth from wherever he comes from."

"I haven't seen you for three years, but now I really look like a prince."

When Shui Hanzhou's voice came, the person entered as if entering no man's land, went straight to the table and sat down.

But he didn't sit in the elder's position like before, but sat on the side of the desk like a close minister.

Li Hong was flustered, and hurriedly glared at the great eunuch King Lu who followed him.

King Lu hurriedly apologized to him.

"The servant is guilty, but the servant can't stop it."

"Go down. If you make a mistake, it's my uncle's fault. What does it have to do with you?"

As Shui Hanzhou said, he winked at King Lu again, and King Lu took the others down together, and even helped them close the door.

Standing in front of the door, he ordered: "If you are not called, no one should go in and disturb you."

Li Hong tilted his head to listen to the commotion outside, his complexion also changed, and his voice was full of displeasure.

"Gu knows that there are really few people in the East Palace who listen to Gu's words wholeheartedly."

"Your Highness's words are wrong."

Shui Hanzhou poured tea by himself.

"Whether it is the emperor's people, the empress's people, or my people, they will all be His Highness's people in the future. If His Highness wants them to be his own people, he must first have the ability to be a servant, learn to conquer people's hearts, and not just wait for others Come and take refuge."

"You don't have to show off here!"

Li Hong was still in the heart of Qi Shui Hanzhou when he left without saying goodbye. He strode over, angrily sat on the main seat, and said with a little pride: "Now Gu is not the weak and naughty boy before you left, Gu There are also trustworthy people by your side.”

"Oh? Is that the female official who shot arrows at you in the day?"

Shui Hanzhou spoke calmly, and picked up the teacup to taste the tea, "Well, the tea is good."

The prince frowned, and said with a vigilant look: "There is no proof, no evidence, don't talk nonsense, Gu was assassinated by an unknown person, and Hua Zhangyi was worried about Gu's safety, so he came to take a look.

Moreover, the direction she came from was exactly opposite to the direction the arrow came from. How could she be the one who shot the arrow towards Gu? "

"Oh, when His Highness startled the horse, he didn't even have time to see the arrow. He even knew that Huazhangyi came from the opposite direction. This perception ability is really admirable."

"This—in short, this matter has nothing to do with Huazhangyi. If you want to frame him, you have to show evidence, otherwise Gu has something to say."

"Oh?"

Shui Hanzhou chuckled, "All ears."

Li Hong frowned, hesitated for a while, and then held back a few words.

"You are clearly not coming back until next month. Why did you suddenly appear in Hunting Mountain at that moment? And I saw your hidden guard coming out of the grass shot by the arrow with my own eyes. How does I know that you did not come back secretly to assassinate me?" lonely?"

Li Hong couldn't believe what he said, and he was a little afraid of Shui Hanzhou's anger, so he retracted his little hands nervously into his wide sleeves.

Unexpectedly, Shui Hanzhou just laughed a few times, and nodded his praises.

"It's well-founded, and it's really improved."

But the more he laughed like this, the more frightened Li Hong became. After all, he was the one who was guilty.

And he knew Shui Hanzhou very well, and he knew that terrible things were yet to come.

Sure enough, Shui Hanzhou smiled and turned cold, turning himself into a serious teacher.

"But it's not enough, do you know that apart from the emperor, empress and my people, there are some more terrifying people in your East Palace?
If Anzhu and I come one step later, your carefully planned fake assassination will turn into a real assassination, and the confidant you carefully cultivated will be used as a scapegoat, and it will be difficult to escape unscathed. "

"Really assassinate? It's impossible!"

The prince was so panicked that he subconsciously leaned back, supporting his body with his hands behind him so as not to fall down.

Shui Hanzhou recalled what he saw around when he went up the mountain to look for the prince. At that time, there were obviously many ambushes around. Although they were wearing the clothes of servants and guards, he could feel their unusual murderous aura.

But after Jiang Baoyu appeared, these people withdrew one after another.

Moreover, they are extremely skilled, even if An Zhu went to chase them immediately, they did not find any traces of them.

But what is certain is that someone is taking advantage of the prince's plan, and wants to take advantage of the opportunity when he transfers away the guards and servants around him to murder the prince.

If he had guessed correctly, if Jiang Baoyu hadn't jumped out to disrupt the situation and disturbed the prince and Yuhua, an arrow would have shot at the prince.

At the same time, those assassins would turn into saviors, surround Yuhua who was holding a bow and arrow at that time, and frame her as the real murderer of the prince.

As for the black hand behind the scenes, it is really chilling to think of such a scheme.

Shui Hanzhou thought to himself, and couldn't help but think of the poisoning of Shui Lige four years ago, that person seemed to have used the same method back then.

Because there were many things in the palace at that time, involving the country, the emperor didn't want to get into the details, so he hastily determined Li Siyi as the real murderer, and closed the case.

I didn't expect this person to be evil-minded, to make Shui Li's song fail, and to have evil thoughts towards Li Hong. It is really unforgivable!
Thinking this way in his heart, the hand holding the teacup subconsciously exerted great force, and accidentally crushed the teacup, causing blood to ooze from his fingers.

Li Hong really panicked now, and while taking a handkerchief to wipe Shui Hanzhou's blood, he shouted outside: "Come here, quickly bring the medicine to stop the bleeding!"

"It's no use."

Shui Hanzhou took the handkerchief and wiped off the blood casually. The moment the scratches appeared, he thought of what Jiang Baoyu said when his hand was hurt, and he couldn't help imitating: "It's just a small injury, there is no need So nervous."

As he said that, he stood up self-consciously, turned his head to look at Li Hong who had been paralyzed from fright, and said, "But your Highness, don't worry, since the assassination was unsuccessful, we can proceed as planned.

After all, the stalemate between the emperor and the empress has been going on for too long, so that others will feel that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it, and it is time to find a way for both of them to go down.

Besides, only when everyone knows about your assassination can the minister proceed to investigate. "

"Oh," Li Hong nodded hurriedly, but quickly shook his head and said, "What plan, what plan does Gu have?"

But Shui Hanzhou only felt that he was still a child, although he had the appearance of a prince, but he was somewhat immature, so he shook his head helplessly and walked out.

It's rare for Li Hong to do a big thing that he thought was pretty good, but he was guessed so easily. He was naturally very upset, so that when Lu Wang saw Shui Hanzhou leave and rushed in, he didn't want to stay in the house at all. up.

"Find Gu an in-suit waiter, Gu wants to go out for a walk!"
