Chapter 546
Shen Rui didn't have time to think about it, and said in a deep voice: "This matter is no small matter, follow me to the Luoyang Palace first!"

Although the origin of this letter is unknown, when he was thoroughly investigating Xuanwu King Xiao Zhao, receiving such a letter did make him suspicious!
It's not that he didn't suspect that someone deliberately framed King Xuanwu, but he already knew what kind of person King Xuanwu was!

Now the only thing he believes in is Luoyang King Xiao Jingyao!
When Shen Rui arrived at the Luoyang Prince's Mansion, he did not expect Wei Zijin to be there. After a moment of surprise, he remembered that the Luoyang King was still injured, and he immediately felt relieved.

Although Wei Zijin was not supposed to see the King of Luoyang again according to the etiquette before she got married, she had even been to the battlefield, and she was also rewarded by the emperor to repel the enemy of the Northern Wei Dynasty with the King of Luoyang. Etiquette is nothing!
"I don't know whether Shen Shangshu's sudden visit is urgent?" Xiao Jingyao ordered Qiuyue to serve tea, and asked with a smile.

Ever since Shen Rui knew that he was going to marry Wei Zijin, he seldom came to the palace as a guest. This time, Shen Rui came to visit suddenly, with a serious expression on his face. He had already vaguely guessed why Shen Rui came here!

Wei Zijin was still thinking about whether to avoid it, but Xiao Jingyao pressed the back of her hand, and she stayed in the main hall of the palace, together with Xiao Jingyao, waiting for Shen Rui to speak and explain why he came.

At this moment, Shen Rui was preoccupied with thoroughly investigating the matter of Xuanwu King Xiao Zhao, and did not notice the subtle actions between Xiao Jingyao and Wei Zijin, so he said straight to the point: "The purpose of my visit is to ask about the injury of the lord... When the lord met the cavalry of the Northern Wei Dynasty... Raid, could it be that someone in the army tipped off the Northern Wei Dynasty?"

Xiao Jingyao nodded: "That's right, and the person who tipped off the news is not a member of the king's army, let alone a general of Houyan!"

"Why is your lord so sure?" Shen Rui asked hesitantly.

"The king was seriously injured later and kept blocking the news. The army of the Northern Wei Dynasty didn't know about it. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been stationed outside Yecheng, waiting for the opportunity to attack Yecheng!" Xiao Jingyao said lightly, looking at Wei Zijin who was sitting beside him, with a tone of voice Quite emotional.

It was precisely because Wei Zijin rushed there in time, and resolutely switched from defense to offense before the Northern Wei army was ready, that caught the Northern Wei by surprise!
Wei Zijin also took a look at Xiao Jingyao, smiled at him, and then slowly said to Shen Rui: "My lord met the cavalry of the Northern Wei Dynasty on the way to meet the army rations, and the only ones who knew about his trip were King Xuanwu and his cronies. Captain Chen Guang!"

"But Chen Guang committed suicide in prison, and there is no proof of his death..." Shen Rui shook his head and sighed.

Xiao Jingyao and Wei Zijin frowned upon hearing this.They haven't heard the news of Chen Guang's death yet!But his death, they were not surprised, they just didn't expect it to be so soon!
"The lower officials have always felt that something strange happened to Chen Guang's death, so they came to visit the prince!" Shen Rui continued, now hearing the Luoyang king talking about this matter, coupled with Chen Guang's sudden suicide, and investigating the case with himself The two powerful officials reminded themselves that there is no need to continue the investigation, he already vaguely understood something in his heart!
If the investigation of this matter continues, I am afraid it will not be the result that the emperor wants, but it is also because of this that he will continue to investigate. The serious injury of Luoyang King was not in vain, and the crime of Xuanwu King Xiao Zhao must not continue To be sheltered, otherwise the court will be unstable, and the people will definitely not accept it!
