Mu Ningyuan said in the letter that there was a guest at Hunting Villa last night who wanted to assassinate the emperor.
In order to save the emperor, the eldest prince Chu Heng stood in front of the emperor and was injured.
The injury was quite serious.
The emperor was safe and sound.
All the assassins were silenced, and strange totems were found on the assassins. It should be the logo of some organization or a symbol of some identity.
Currently, Dali Temple and the Royal Forest Army are conducting a thorough investigation.
Hearing the news, Shen Yindi was completely shocked.
How could such a thing happen?
There are actually assassins in such a heavily guarded hunting village.
That assassin is powerful enough!
In addition, because of the fright, Concubine Xian's "child" was not saved and she had a miscarriage.
For this reason, the emperor was furious.
This sealed letter lasted for two pages. The matter was really big. He wanted to make it clear to them.
Now the news about this matter has been blocked for the time being, otherwise it would cause panic among people if it were spread back to the imperial capital.
Shen Yindi calmed down not long after he was shocked.
She looked at Chu Yan and saw that he frowned slightly and pursed his lips. She didn't know what he was thinking.
"Brother Yan, has anything like this happened to you when you went hunting in autumn with them before?" Shen Yindi broke the silence.
Chu Yan retracted his thoughts and nodded: "Yes. In fact, when my father leaves the palace, the chance of being assassinated is greater. After all, things are much more relaxed outside than in the palace."
"No matter how tight the guards are, there will always be loopholes. Especially those assassins. Since they decided to come to the king of a country, they must not have done it on the spur of the moment. They must have been carefully planned."
"There is at least a 30% success rate! Even if the person cannot be killed directly, it is considered a success if it can seriously injure the person!" Chu Yan's voice was low and his expression was a little solemn.
This time, the father is fine and the eldest prince is injured, which may change the situation.
"I wonder what the totem Master Mu is talking about looks like? He shouldn't be from Da Chu."
After a while, Chu Yan's deep voice sounded: "Maybe he is from Zhaoyue Kingdom."
"Ah?" Shen Yindi exclaimed.
She remembered clearly that Zhaoyue Country was his biological mother's country.
If he was from Zhaoyue Kingdom, the emperor would definitely be angry with him.
Especially this time about Concubine Xian's "miscarriage".
The emperor is doting on her the most recently, so he will definitely be looking forward to this child.
This move can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
On the one hand, it can solve the crisis of her false pregnancy being discovered, and on the other hand, it can make the emperor even more angry and hate those assassins.
If it is found that he is indeed from Zhaoyue Kingdom...
Then be prepared to be implicated.
"Have you seen that totem?"
"Yes, I saw it on the battlefield back then. It was found on the dead soldiers of Zhaoyue Kingdom." Chu Yan told her truthfully.
The expression on Shen Yindi's face wasn't very good either.
So despicable!
Even if Chu Yan is far away from the vortex, these things can still affect him.
His mother-in-law is from Zhaoyue Kingdom, and this identity can never be erased.
The charges he was falsely accused of have not been washed away yet.
Everything happened so suddenly.
"Let's not be anxious. Let's see how things develop next. Let's adapt accordingly! Don't worry. No matter what happens, I will face it with you." Shen Yindi held his hand and comforted him gently.
Chu Yan retracted his thoughts, he smiled and held her hand.
"I'm not in a hurry, and I won't worry too much. I know you're here. No matter how bad the outcome is, it won't be worse than being unable to move and having red spots on my face."
"I have fallen into the quagmire before, and there is nothing I cannot accept."
Shen Yindi smiled: "It's best if you think so."
"Yeah, no matter how bad it is, it won't be much worse."
"there is always a solution to a problem!"
Two people regain their confidence!
On the third day after the emperor was assassinated, they returned to the palace early. This year’s human autumn hunting also ended early.
Mu Ningyuan came to Chu Yan the night he came back.
Many words and many things are better said face to face.
At this moment, the three of them are in the study together.
Mu Ningyuan told them all the details of the emperor's assassination.
He also drew the assassin's totem and showed it to Chu Yan.
After Chu Yan saw it, his heart sank.
Just as he had guessed before, this totem was indeed a totem unique to some special people in Zhaoyue Kingdom.
He thought that the emperor would definitely know this fact soon.
"Those few people obviously had a premeditated plan at this moment. They were lurking in the villa in advance, waiting for the opportunity." Mu Ningyuan's expression was solemn.
"Is the Emperor not injured at all?" Shen Yindi asked thoughtfully.
"Yes, the Emperor is not injured in any way."
"But Concubine Xian's miscarriage made him furious. The imperial guards responsible for the safety of his dormitory and the commander of the Royal Forest Army were all punished."
"There are still people who are scolded by the rod!" Mu Ningyuan said calmly.
"How is the eldest prince's injury?" Shen Yindi asked again.
"The injuries are not minor, but not life-threatening. There are injuries on the shoulders, arms, and a knife on the back. You should suffer a little this time."
Shen Yindi touched his chin, thoughtfully.
Chu Yan didn't speak either.
It's hard for Mu Ningyuan to say, they all have their own concerns.
After a while, Shen Yindi broke the silence: "Look now, this eldest prince has made many great contributions!"
"Back then, I led my army to repel Zhaoyue Kingdom's siege and rescued Chu Yan. This time I almost risked my life to save the emperor!"
"The emperor must be very moved."
A sneer appeared at the corner of Shen Yindi's mouth.
Chu Yan never doubted him.
But nothing related to him could be found at all.
Mu Ningyuan also snorted: "If everything is just a coincidence, then he is very lucky."
"Have you not checked him?" Shen Yindi looked at Mu Ningyuan.
The people in Dali Temple should all be masters of investigating crimes.
Mu Ningyuan was a little frustrated: "I checked, but there are no clues."
"If these things are really related to the eldest prince, then the queen must be behind it. There are no clues."
Shen Yindi understood that the probability of finding valid information was too low.
Being born in a deep palace and sitting in the position of a queen like them must be very clever.
If you are going to do it, you will definitely pick it off cleanly.
"Master Mu, you might as well look up the man named Meng Shizhao. Starting from him, you might gain something." Shen Yindi suddenly remembered this matter.
A flash of surprise flashed in Mu Ningyuan's eyes.
"Meng Shizhao? The queen's nephew?" He immediately thought of his identity.
"Yes, I heard from Chu Yan that he has been doing business in Jiangnan, so he should know a lot of people. The sky is high and the emperor is far away, so he can do many things."
Shen Yindi said with a half-smile.
She told him about Wenrou Township again.
Mu Ningyuan's eyes lit up: "Okay, then I will send someone to investigate Meng Shizhao."
If you can't find anything in one direction, changing the direction is the best way.
Mu Ningyuan stayed with Chu Yan for more than an hour before leaving.
It's quite late.
After Chu Yan and Shen Yin Di saw him off, they also returned to the room.
Chu Yan has been talking very little tonight and doesn't know what he is thinking.
"Brother Yan, what are you thinking about? Why don't you tell us and discuss it with me?" Shen Yindi asked with a smile.
Chu Yan retracted his thoughts.
Meeting Shen Yindi's probing eyes, he did not hide anything: "I was thinking about some of the things my mother-in-law said to me in the palace when she was still there."
"Oh? What did you find?"
