dark night.
The cold wind is biting.
In front of Prince Wu'an's Mansion, a large number of forbidden troops arrived, arriving in such a timely manner.
During the Great Shang Dynasty, a curfew was imposed after sunset. Under normal circumstances, civilians were not allowed to run around at night without special reasons.
Of course, the Imperial Guards are not civilians and can be dispatched at night.
What happened at Prince Wu'an's Mansion attracted the attention of the Forbidden Army at an extremely fast speed, and Chang Sun Fengyu, who was in charge of field service, immediately led his men to rush over.
The Zhongwu Palace, headed by King Zhongwu, and the Wuan Palace, headed by King Wuan, have always had a lot of grievances. The opposition between relatives and royal relatives is not uncommon in any dynasty.
Therefore, after the eldest grandson Fengyu received the news of the incident in Wu'an Prince's Mansion, he rushed there with his people as soon as possible.
The strength and speed are all maxed out.
There is no official business, it is all personal grudges!
In the Wu'an Prince's Mansion, before the officers and soldiers in the mansion could react, the eldest grandson Fengyu had already led his men in.
Although breaking into the palace privately is a serious crime, there are exceptions to everything.
Tonight was undoubtedly the exception.
"Gather everyone in the mansion together and be careful not to let the assassin get in and escape. Others, follow me to search the mansion and dig three feet deep to find the assassin."
After entering the palace, eldest son Fengyu immediately ordered everyone in the palace to be guarded, and then took people to search the palace.
As the eldest son of Prince Zhongwu, the eldest grandson Fengyu knows the connections among the royal family and nobles better than anyone else. As long as he dares to search, he will surely find something.
To put it bluntly, how many ministers in the imperial court are absolutely clean?
It's just not checking.
In the mansion, the old, weak, women and children who were still in fear were trembling with fear when they saw the posture of the imperial army. No one dared to stand up and resist.
With King Wu'an away, almost all the people in charge of affairs in the palace were killed by Tian Zhique, and the remaining people were useless at all.
Therefore, when the eldest son Fengyu searched the mansion, it went extremely smoothly and no one dared to stop him.
"This assassin is really powerful."
In each bedroom, the eldest grandson Fengyu witnessed the royal family members dying in a pool of blood, and he was filled with emotion.
They all sealed their throats with one sword, without any sign of resistance. The person who took action must be a master at the fifth realm level.
The most frightening thing is that the assassin didn't attract anyone's attention at all during the killing process. Such a method was too professional.
In the whole world, there are not many people who can achieve this level.
The Li family?
This thought flashed through the mind of the eldest grandson Fengyu. Recently, the royal family and the Li family have been fighting more frequently. The Li family lost Li Youwei and Hongzhu, and the royal family also lost 90% of the Shadow Guards. The competition between them has gradually become fierce.
"Commander."
At this time, a Forbidden Army soldier walked over quickly, handed over something wrapped in yellow cloth, and said in a heavy tone, "This was found in King Wu'an's room."
"what?"
Changsun Fengyu saw the face of the Forbidden Army officer in front of him and took the object in the latter's hand doubtfully. After opening it, his expression suddenly changed. He immediately covered it with a yellow cloth and said in a deep voice, "How many people have seen this thing?"
"Five brothers."
The Imperial Guards officer answered truthfully.
"Tell them that if they don't want to die, they will keep everything tonight in their stomachs and don't mention it to anyone." Changsun Fengyu warned sternly.
"yes!"
The Forbidden Army officers took the order and immediately turned around and left.
In the room, Changsun Fengyu looked at the object in his hand and narrowed his eyes slightly.
In all likelihood, this was a premeditated frame-up.
However, this is none of his business. He is only responsible for reporting the matter truthfully.
As for what His Majesty thinks, that is His Majesty's business.
Mu Wu'an, I didn't expect you to be here today!
At the same time, Li Garden, the inner courtyard.
After Li Ziye practiced swordplay for most of the night, he stopped to rest for a while.
In the sky, the bright moon moves westward, the night gradually passes, and dawn is about to come.
Under the moon, Li Ziye looked in the direction of the palace, a coldness flashing in his eyes.
He wanted to see how much the suspicious Emperor Shang trusted King Wu'an.
such a pity.
I may not be able to finish the banquet in the Canglu Garden tomorrow.
Thinking of this, Li Ziye turned around and went back to the room, ready to freshen up and go to the banquet in the best spirit.
Time passed little by little, and dawn came soon.
In front of the palace, as soon as the palace door opened, eldest grandson Fengyu immediately entered the palace and went to Shou'an Hall to meet the saint.
Not long after, in the Shou'an Palace, Emperor Shang received a report from Prince Zhongwu's son asking for an audience, and looked surprised.
What happened so early?
"His Majesty."
Soon, under the leadership of the chamberlain, the eldest grandson Fengyu entered the palace, bowed respectfully, and said with a serious expression, "Last night, after an assassin attacked the palace of Prince Wu'an at night, when I led people to arrest the assassin, I found this object in Prince Wu'an's room. "
After speaking, eldest son Fengyu handed over the items he brought.
When Emperor Shang heard this, he frowned slightly and took the object from the hands of Prince Zhongwu in front of him.
The yellow cloth was opened, and what came into view was a doll covered with runes. On the back of the doll, there was a line of small characters engraved on it. If you look closely, it turned out to be a person's birth date.
After Emperor Shang saw the eight characters on the back of the doll, his expression suddenly became extremely ugly.
"Your Majesty, there may be something fishy about this matter."
The eldest grandson Fengyu said in a concentrated voice, "I found this thing in King Wu'an's room just after the assassins attacked the palace at night. Maybe it was a frame-up."
Speaking of this, Changsun Fengyu hesitated for a moment and reminded, "Your Majesty, there is a letter in the sandwich of the doll. I was worried that there was something in it that I shouldn't see, so I didn't dare to open it."
Hearing the reminder from the person in front of him, Shang Huang turned over the doll and found a mezzanine on his chest, so he took out the letter inside.
After a few breaths, Emperor Shang's face became increasingly gloomy, and he revealed the secret of murder. He looked up at Prince Zhongwu and said in a deep voice, "You really didn't see it?"
"No."
Changsun Fengyu shook his head and replied, "I knew the seriousness of the matter at the first sight of the doll. I will never look twice at something I shouldn't see."
"Besides you, is there anyone else who knows about this?" Emperor Shang asked.
"there is none left."
Changsun Fengyu denied without hesitation, "Your Majesty also knows that there is a slight grudge between Zhongwu Prince's Palace and Wu'an Prince's Palace, so I was the first person to go to the room of Wu'an Prince's Palace. The other Forbidden Army officers only knew that I found a Huang It’s something wrapped in cloth, but I don’t know what’s inside!”
"Very good, this matter must not be mentioned to anyone, including your father, King Zhongwu. Do you understand?" Emperor Shang said coldly.
"My lord, I understand."
The eldest grandson Fengyu bowed again and responded respectfully.
"Okay, let's go down. I will handle this matter properly." Emperor Shang ordered.
"My lord, resign!"
Changsun Fengyu responded, then turned and left.
"Someone is coming."
Prince Zhongwu had just left, and Emperor Shang immediately stood up and said in a deep voice.
"His Majesty."
A shadow guard appeared and saluted respectfully.
"Send someone to Baidi City immediately to get the handwriting of Tantai Heavenly Lady as soon as possible!" Emperor Shang ordered coldly.
"yes!"
The Shadow Guard took the order, stood up and left.
In the empty hall, Emperor Shang looked at the dolls and letters on the table with extremely cold eyes.
Mu Wu'an collaborates with the enemy?
No matter how you look at it, it looks like a frame-up.
However, this kind of thing, it is better to believe that it is true than to believe that it is not true, so we have to guard against it.
When you get the handwriting of Tantai Goddess, you will know at a glance whether it is true or false!
