Great Emperor's Grandson of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 116 116 Tianli's dying assist, Deng Xiao "shows ugliness"

Early the next morning.

After a routine inspection and finding that Zhu Congxin was still nowhere to be seen, the two servants looked at each other and hurried to Shen Guogong's mansion.

".So! The Heavenly Ligao should have succeeded!"

"They were so ruthless! They actually killed all the kidnappers who knew about it."

"It's really watertight."

Shen Guogong Deng Zhen also came to the same conclusion as them.

Then, he turned to his third brother, Deng Duo, and said, "In that case, A'duo! Let your people return to their hometown first!"

"yes, Sir!"

In response to this, Deng Duo naturally wanted it, so he immediately responded and exited the hall.

As for what Deng Zhen will do next, he has no interest in knowing.

Because no matter how much benefit the Deng family can get from this matter, it will definitely not be him who takes the highest position in the end.

And not long after he left, a carrier pigeon suddenly flew over and landed on the window sill on the left side of the hall.

"It's my sister's letter!"

Deng Zhen was instantly happy when he recognized the mark on the pigeon.

Then he hurried to the window with Deng Xi and opened the bamboo tube on his back.

"Things have changed. The thief went back on his word and wanted to coerce me into taking control of the family. I have decided to sacrifice Qing Yatou. She found the person and did the thing. Even if the thief takes out the letter, he will never hurt me at all. No matter what. You guys quickly expose this matter and use the old man’s help to get rid of the den of thieves! The thieves are now in Guishan!"

But looking at it, the expressions of the two became dignified.

"What a Tianli Sect! He actually wants to play the trick of coercing the emperor to control the princes! He simply doesn't know how to live or die!" Deng Zhen took the lead and patted the table, with a murderous look on his face.

"No matter what! Zhu Congxin's confidant has finally been eliminated! Just leave the Tianli Sect to the emperor to deal with!"

Deng Le also nodded coldly and said.

"My uncle is right. In the next few days, I will inform the people in the city guard camp and ask them to be on guard against the intrusion of the Heavenly Law Society. My uncle, please go to the palace and take care of this matter." ! You don’t have to say it directly, just say that you haven’t seen Zhu Congxin in the past ten days, and your visit was rejected. Your Majesty is so smart, he should be able to understand what you mean in an instant." Deng Zhen looked slightly brighter. .

"Uncle knows! You and my eldest sister just need to comfort Zhu Chong. Although that guy is a fool, he may not be able to guess the fishiness involved. We can't let him ruin things!" Deng Xi stood up immediately, while He said goodbye as he bowed his hands.

Immediately, he left the Divine Palace in a resolute manner and went to the Imperial City's Forbidden Palace.

As the younger brother of Deng Yu, King of Ninghe, Deng Xi inherited some privileges and favors after all.

With the announcement, Zhu Yuanzhang's summons was quickly returned.

"Deng Xi. I heard that you have been very honest recently and even your temper has changed a lot. Are you here today to beg for reinstatement?"

When he saw Deng Xi, he even had a smile on his face.

It seems that plans have been made to reinstate Deng Shiguan.

"Back to Your Majesty! Wei Chen has indeed learned a lesson recently and got rid of some bad habits in the past! I hope to be forgiven by Your Majesty. However, the most important thing Wei Chen wants to report to you is a strange thing."

Deng Xi's eyes flashed and he quickly followed Zhu Yuanzhang's words.

But secretly, he was actually very disdainful.

Because since he learned about the existence of the new world, he was no longer content to just be the leader of the Habayashi Guards.

He is going to a broader stage!

As for Zhu Yuanzhang, this pervert?
Serve whoever loves to serve!Anyway, I don’t want to serve you anymore.

"A strange thing? What strange thing?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked puzzled.

"It's about the little emperor's grandson. In fact, as early as half a month ago, Wei Chen had decided to go to Prince Qin's Mansion to apologize to him in order to ease the relationship between the family. But for more than half a month, every time Wei Chen visited , everyone in Prince Qin’s palace only said that the little emperor’s grandson was not here.”

"At first, Wei Chen thought this was because the little emperor's grandson was getting angry again and was unwilling to forgive him. But later, when Wei Chen decided to impress the little emperor's grandson with his sincerity, he gradually discovered that the little emperor's grandson was actually angry again. I have never left the imperial city."

"And until now, Wei Chen has not received any news about the little emperor's grandson traveling."

Deng Xi hunched over, trying his best to hide his expression, and said with flashing eyes.

In an instant, the entire imperial study room fell silent.

Deng Xi actually wanted to look up and see Zhu Yuanzhang's expression, but after hesitating for a long time, he finally chose to give up.

And precisely because of this, at this moment, he could not see the surprise and doubt flashing in Zhu Congxin's eyes.

[What does he mean?Are you hinting to us that Zhu Congxin has sneaked out of Yingtian? 】

[How could he have such an idea?And you are eager to tell us?What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd? 】

Yes.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not show even the slightest worry.

Because at this moment, he happened to be holding a "Pinyin Atlas" copied by Zhu Congxin himself.

Just from the still-dry ink stains on it, he could be 100% sure that Zhu Congxin must be in the house now.

But if Zhu Congxin did not leave Yingtian, why did Deng Xi suddenly come to report the matter?
Is it just a matter of simple idleness?
"Say everything you want to say. I don't like to beat around the bush."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but frown and secretly raised his voice.

"Your Majesty, forgive me. This is actually just a guess made by Wei Chen."

"It's just that because the matter is so important, even if the possibility is only one in [-], Weichen feels it is necessary to report it truthfully!"

"Wei Chen feels that the little emperor's grandson is most likely being held hostage by a gangster!"

"Because according to Weichen's investigation, the day when the little emperor's grandson disappeared seems to have happened to be the time when the smoke incident occurred in Hongwu Street and when several unknown corpses appeared in the Qinhuai River."

"All signs have shown! Everything that happened half a month ago should have some internal connection."

"As for what kind of connection it is, I'm afraid we still have to investigate it carefully."

Seeing him like this, Deng Xi quickly lowered his head again and said one sentence after another.

He still didn't mention the Heavenly Ligao Association.

Because he knew very well that the more he spoke, the more Zhu Yuanzhang would become more suspicious of him.

Only by pressing it to the end can he completely get out of this matter.

However, after hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression became even weirder.

"Hongwu Street smoke incident!?"

"Isn't the case closed?"

"No one is missing, and no one reports the crime! How can you connect it with the little one?"
