Chapter 456 Who?Second watch
At this time, a burly guard with a knife knelt down on one knee and saluted at the gate of Dongnuan Pavilion. The emperor said with a sullen face: "At this moment, no one is allowed to stay near Dongnuang Pavilion. Whoever wants to move forward, no matter who it is, oh, except Xiao Aunt, shoot to kill! You and Hanyu will guard the door, and wait for Dequan to find you in a while, and see if the person who should be serving in the Hall of Mental Cultivation today has gone out, if so..."

"Your majesty!" Qin Wubing's mind flashed, he stepped forward excitedly and forgot the rules, interrupting the emperor's words: "Check out those eunuchs, if any of them are wearing daggers!"

The emperor frowned, and then he understood, he gritted his teeth, and said sharply: "Go and search, and search all the eunuchs who are serving in the palace today!"

Wu Feng led the order to retreat.

The East Nuan Pavilion suddenly became quiet. No one asked why, not even the old monk. Now that he thought about the identity of that person, the easiest way to kill Qin Wubing in the palace was to use his own kind. At this point, that person is not afraid of being exposed.

Several people waited quietly, the search would not take long.

Soon, they heard hurried footsteps, the emperor actually stood up, and then saw the Eldest Princess rushing over nervously.

……

The old monk finally found an errand that suits him. He happily explained Qin Wubing's deduction and the emperor's new will to the eldest princess just now. Just after speaking, Wu Feng appeared at the door of Dongnuan Pavilion again.

"Reporting to the emperor, a piece of sharp broken porcelain was found on Deli's body." Wu Feng said and presented the things in his hands with both hands.

The eldest princess and the old monk rushed to Wu Feng almost at the same time. The old monk picked up the piece of broken porcelain and yelled: "No disease, they want to cut your neck!"

The eldest princess gritted her teeth and ordered Wu Feng: "Take me to see Deli!"

"Yu'er!" Qin Wubing called out softly, the eldest princess turned her head, her eyes turned red.

Qin Wubing walked over, held the eldest princess's hand and said softly:

"Don't affect the overall situation. We have to catch that person as soon as possible, or catch him alive. We can't make too much noise now. Besides, am I okay? If you want to kill me, you have to ask me if I agree! "

The eldest princess lowered her head.

The old monk had just handed over the tiles to the emperor, when he heard Qin Wubing's words, he turned his head and complained, "You're talking nonsense, is such a body search so quiet?"

Qin Wubing pulled the Eldest Princess over and said: "Although we can't underestimate the enemy, Uncle Seven can't think highly of him. This is in the palace. The emperor really wants to let only female flies fly, and male flies can't live!"

"Then why don't you let Yu'er take two whips?"

"No need!"

"Wu Feng, order someone to strictly examine Deli! It doesn't matter if you kill him!" The emperor called the fragments into the hands of Prince Xiang, and ordered in a cold voice.

"Let my people interrogate!" The eldest princess said anxiously.

"Yu'er..."

"Okay! Follow my little aunt." The emperor interrupted Qin Wubing.

The Eldest Princess hurriedly called out 'Ying Gu', and then stood at the door of Dongnuange to make arrangements.

The old monk patted Qin Wubing and said with a smile: "You don't love Yu'er like the emperor."

Qin Wubing scratched his forehead and said, "I just don't want to trouble the emperor."

Prince Xiang held up the fragment and said: "This has been polished carefully, and it's just the right size to hold in your hand. They want to carry a sharp knife to work in the palace, so that they don't have to wait until they see that they are healthy."

The emperor glanced at Wu Feng who was still kneeling at the door and asked: "Did De Quan tell you, did any of the people who served you leave for a while?"

"Dequan checked and said that there was a lot of one person, and the last general also questioned the other guards, but no one went out."

"Go down."

Prince Xiang said: "It stands to reason that there is no need for anyone in the hall to report the letter. That person only needs to know who the emperor has called to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and he already has a good idea."

"The emperor must have thought of it, otherwise he wouldn't order people to see if Bai is dead or alive first." Qin Wubing said.

The emperor sat down again, rubbed his swollen forehead and said: "Now we need to determine who that person is, I want to capture him alive! Don't give him time to end his life!"

At this time, the Eldest Princess also turned around and came back, hearing what the emperor said, she hurriedly said: "The eunuch who served the brush and ink at that time was He Sheng!"

"He Sheng went to guard the spirit, just like Wangxi. Wangxi died a few years ago. I'm afraid he will die soon. Could it be him?" Prince Xiang asked.

Qin Wubing frowned and asked, "Why does he have a surname?"

"Bai Sheng also has a surname. This is a gift from the emperor to the slaves. If he serves well, the emperor will let them name themselves." The Eldest Princess explained.

Qin Wubing stared blankly at the eldest princess, then suddenly said, "Yu'er, you should know who it is!"

The old monk clapped his hands and said: "That's right, Wubing said before that the man wanted to get rid of Yu'er with the help of Cheng County King, Yu'er may have seen that person's inappropriate behavior with his own eyes, Yu'er, get well soon Think!"

The eldest princess frowned and thought deeply, Qin Wubing comforted him: "Don't worry, think about it, I'll talk a few more words, maybe I can find him."

Prince Xiang asked:

"I can't figure out one thing. No matter who that person is, he may be useful in the palace, but he may not be useful outside, especially in places far away from the capital. How did he manage to kill him so quickly? A useless person who erases traces?"

Qin Wubing thought for a while and said:

"It depends on the journey along the way, who is the person he needs to kill every step of the way, I think this person's background may have helped him at the very beginning, that is, there must be brothers in his family, why don't he leave incense behind?" Can it work? And those of them, if the family can’t survive, they will not send their children to the palace. There will always be some courageous people around the family members. Let's see if anyone can use them."

"In the beginning, he just saw this opportunity. He could see the exam questions, but no one knew he could read. Naturally, he had to find someone relatively safe to sell the exam questions. How could he get a safe seat in a short time? We can only find out the truth when we catch him, but one thing is for sure, at the beginning he only found someone to buy exam questions in a place far away from the capital, so it would be easier to kill him."

"Then, as his strength gradually grows, he continues to use money to buy rogues, bastards, and bandits. In short, he kills them after they are used, and then buys them after they are killed. The person in charge of this matter may be someone in that person's family, or a neighbor." ...I can only come up with a general idea of ​​how he did it, the people below him are in charge of their own affairs, just like..."

Qin Wubing wanted to talk about the assembly line, but knew he couldn't say that, so he had to stop.

Prince Xiang said: "This is extremely difficult for you."

The emperor also said: "Right now there is no need to ponder how he did it step by step, but to determine who he is as soon as possible!"

"How old is that He Sheng?" Qin Wubing asked.

"It must be older than me." Prince Xiang said.

The old monk hurriedly said: "I still have the impression of this person. When the late emperor was still the prince, he was always accompanied by He Sheng every time he entered the palace."

The emperor snorted coldly and said: "I heard from my father that He Sheng served by my father's side since he was very young, and he was most trusted by his father, and later he even sat in the position of chief eunuch..."

"But I can't think of anything wrong with He Sheng!" the eldest princess said anxiously.

Qin Wubing hurriedly persuaded: "Don't worry, maybe my deduction is wrong."

The emperor looked at Qin Wubing meaningfully, and said: "If you catch him, everything will be solved."
