Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 880 A bow, a figure!
Yan Shaoxuan said: "An assassin has appeared in Tangquan Palace!"

"what?!"

Upon hearing the word "assassin", Shang Ruyi's eyes suddenly widened, and Yu Wenye on the side also frowned, but after the initial shock, he immediately calmed down, frowned and thought for a while, suddenly Asked: "Did an assassin appear in Tangquan Palace, or was my father assassinated in Tangquan Palace?"

Hearing this, Shang Ruyi turned to look at him in surprise.

Yan Shaoxuan was slightly startled, and there was a hint of admiration in Yu Wenye's eyes, but he did not reveal his emotions too much. After thinking for a moment, he said: "It's Tangquan Palace, and an assassin has appeared. "

Shang Ruyi took a deep breath silently.

The appearance of an assassin and the assassination seem to be somewhat similar, but if you think about it carefully, they are two completely different things.

And Yu Wenye actually grasped the key point of this sentence at the first time. It can be seen that although the matter happened urgently, it did not completely disturb his mood. He looked solemn and then asked: "Then how was this assassin discovered?"

Yan Shaoxuan said: "I did not follow His Majesty to Tangquan Palace, so I don't know the specific situation very clearly. I just heard General Lou's description——"

"General Lou? Lou Yingxiong?"

"Yes, he will protect His Majesty's entire trip to Tangquan Palace."

Yu Wenye pondered for a moment and said, "Please continue."

Yan Shaoxuan said: "General Lou said that when His Majesty was enjoying singing and dancing in the Furong Pond in the West Palace, someone suddenly noticed a figure appearing on the palace wall outside the Furong Pond. At that time, there was a chaos in the West Palace, and guards immediately rushed to arrest him. Unfortunately, this The man reacted very quickly, and the guard failed to catch him, but found a bow he had left behind where the figure appeared. "

"A bow?"

"Yes,"

Yan Shaoxuan glanced at Yu Wenye and said, "It is said that the Furong Pond in the West Hall is newly built with shorter walls, and unlike several other hot springs, this place has not been capped, allowing people to watch the stars at night and see the surrounding scenery. scene."

Yu Wenye continued: "And if the people around you stand on a high place, they can also overlook the Furong Pond?"

"Yes."

"So, if you act on the palace wall, you may be able to--, but it will also be very easy to be discovered."

"……Yes."

Yu Wenye pondered again, then suddenly raised his head and said, "Since no one was caught, why did you involve Mr. Pei in this case?"

Yan Shaoxuan said: "After discovering the whereabouts of the assassin, the entire Tangquan Palace guards began to search everywhere. As a result, they found Minister Pei in Feishuang Palace."

"Feishuang Palace?"

"Yes."

"What...is he doing there?"

"When the guards arrived, they saw that Mr. Pei seemed to be meeting someone there, but it was very hidden and he didn't even light the lamp. Moreover, as soon as he saw the guards arriving, the man ran away immediately."

"..." "The guards failed to capture the man, so they captured Minister Pei."

Hearing this, Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi's faces darkened.

At this time, the howling wind outside was much colder than before, but the hall was so quiet that not even a breath could be heard. The more it was like this, the more suffocating and oppressive it felt.

I don’t know how long it took, but Yu Wenye said, “What happens next?”

"Your Majesty asked the Pei family and his son to be escorted, and he rushed back to Chang'an overnight."

"then you--"

Yan Shaoxuan said: "Wei Chen has been ordered to supervise this case. If the assassin is really related to Pei Shilang——"

Having said this, Yan Shaoxuan also fell silent. When he looked at Yu Wenye with his deep eyes, although he did not mean any threat, the threat behind this matter was already like the heavy night outside, sealing their attention. Surrounded.

Shang Ruyi subconsciously tightened her sleeves, and after a while, she took a deep breath.

I see.

No wonder the imperial court transferred Shen Wuzheng to the Henan Road Marching Record Office to join the army and asked him to follow the King of Qi on the expedition. Although she was always very nervous at the time, thinking that they were going to take action against Shen Wuzheng, Shen Wuzheng was very calm on the contrary, because with his wisdom With his tactics and methods, plus the presence of Shen Tutai in the army, even Yu Wencheng and Shang Shoufei combined may not be able to do anything to him.

And Shen Wuzheng had been reminding them before setting off that the other party might have other motives.

Only then did Shang Ruyi fully understand that the other party's target had always been Pei Xingyuan!
Transferring Shen Wuzheng away was to make them think that the target was Shen Wuzheng, and their attention was focused there, while ignoring the problems on Pei Xingyuan's side. But in fact, this was also a way of diverting the tiger away from the mountain, because if Shen Wuzheng stayed in Chang'an, As Shen Shiyan's eldest son, he will definitely follow him on this trip. With him here, it will not be so easy for the other party to attack Pei Xingyuan!

As for Shen Wuzheng and Pei Xingyuan, these two are the most capable helpers around the King of Qin. Although Pei Xingyuan is not as good as Shen Wuzheng in strategizing, he is smart, alert and has great vision. Moreover, he has now been promoted to the Minister of Household Affairs, and his father's internal history Ling's identity will be of great help to Yuwen Ye in commanding the army in the future.

But this time, Pei Xingyuan was imprisoned, and his father and the entire Pei family were also implicated.

If this time, Pei Xingyuan really——

At this moment, Yu Wenye's arm was cut off abruptly!
Not only that, everyone in the court knew the relationship between Yu Wenye and Pei Xingyuan. If Pei Xingyuan was really related to the assassin, then King Qin would definitely be suspected and even implicated!

Now, Shang Ruyi also understood why Yu Wenyuan had just returned to Chang'an and asked Eunuch Yu to send a message to them, telling King Qin and Princess Qin to return to the palace immediately and not stay outside.

Yu Wenyuan's suspicion has fallen on King Qin!
Although, the reason is that there is only one bow and one figure!
Ever since the death of Duke Shenwu in the Battle of Longmendu, Yu Wenyuan's dissatisfaction with Yu Wenye has been increasing. Although Shang Ruyi gave birth to the emperor's eldest grandson and tried his best to use this child to please the emperor, it also slightly eased the relationship between the couple. There is a rift and conflict between father and son, but what happened this time may make all their previous efforts in vain.

At this moment, Yan Shaoxuan was invited to the Qianqiu Palace to talk about these things, and Yu Wenyuan knew it very well. He did not stop him, probably because he wanted Yan Shaoxuan to put something in front of Yu Wenye, and then see Yu Wenye's reaction.

What's more, I want him to give an attitude.

Or, the answer!

At this time, Yan Shaoxuan looked back at the sky outside, stood up, and said respectfully: "His Royal Highness, the lower officials have already said everything they can. It's getting late, I -"

Yu Wenye suddenly said: "Master Yan, has Vice Minister Pei been summoned? Is he meeting anyone in Feishuang Palace?"
