"Qin Ruochen?" Nangong Yizhi grinned because he was poisoned by a glass of strong wine, but he still couldn't match the shock of Shangguan Shaochen's words.
"When did he admit it?"
Only then did Shangguan Shaochen tell everyone what Qin Ruochen said close to his ear that day.
When everyone heard the words, they all looked at each other in blank dismay.
"This Qin Ruochen really has a dark belly. If Qin Xuanting really died at his hands, then his abilities are simply beyond our imagination. We have always ignored him before!" Ling Muer sighed, feeling instantly The hot pot on this table is not fragrant.
"Qin Ruochen has been hiding his edge, because the emperor's indifference just gave him the opportunity to plot everything! It seems that he has long been eyeing everyone who threatens him." Su Ce finished speaking, and looked at Shangguan Shaochen.
In other words, around him, in his Second Prince's Mansion and around him, there are also Qin Ruochen's eyeliner.
"My God, do you want to be so scary?" Nangong Yizhi shook the wine glass in his hand, almost spilling the wine. He hurriedly took a sip, and then slammed the empty wine glass on the table. I'm going to investigate Qin Ruochen, I've already started to investigate, but who knows when he has been eyeing Qin Xuanting for so many years."
"The virtuous king has compiled all the whereabouts of the six princes over the years into a book, and it's in Shaochen's study." Ling Muer and Shangguan Shaochen gave Su Ce a grateful look after finishing speaking.
"What?" Nangong Yizhi was stunned. He looked at Su Ce in disbelief, "It's only been less than two days, and you actually investigated his whereabouts in the past few years?"
Su Ce proudly drank a glass of so-called beer, took another mouthful of beef slowly, and then raised his eyes to look at Nangong Yizhi, "Why, Prince Nangong objected to this?"
More than just dissent.
If he was not familiar with his personality, he would have suspected that he had colluded with Qin Ruochen and made these preparations in advance!
"Qin Ruochen is in his twenties this year, and he started planning everything when he was fifteen. You can investigate all his whereabouts in eight years in two days? How is this possible!"
Nangong Yizhi didn't believe it, these people must be laughing at him for doing things too slowly, on purpose.
"A man, a mature man, will plan everything when he is sensible, so fifteen years old is too late." Su Ce's faint voice came out, not only pouring a glass of wine for himself, but also pouring a glass for Shangguan Shaochen .
Seeing the two of them clinking wine glasses, Nangong Yizhi almost bit off his tongue.
"Thirteen years of whereabouts? Are you crazy?"
Su Ce raised his brows proudly, "It's not worth mentioning. Now, Prince Nangong, do you know why there are rumors in the court that those who win the power of the Su family get the powerful?"
Nangong Yizhi's big mouth could fit two eggs, and Ling Muer was worried that his jaw would fall off.
Su Ce didn't say that, even she forgot. He still remembered that when he came to the capital for the first time, he heard that people in the court wanted the support of the county prince's mansion.
At that time, she was still curious, how could Su Ce, a devil incarnate, with a fox-like personality and appearance, have such great ability regardless of the government.
Now she understands, it's not because of the princess of the county prince, but because of Su Ce's ability, his connections, his decisiveness, and his ruthlessness in doing things!
No wonder the brothers and sisters of Amu De were so humiliated, and Amu De insisted on marrying Mo Junyao to Su Ce. Could it be that the Western Regions also liked this?
To be able to investigate the traces of a person over the past ten years within two days is definitely not something that dozens of people can do.
"You're awesome!" Nangong Yizhi was overwhelmed, willingly gave Su Ce a thumbs up, and even pushed his share of beef in front of him.
"This son thought he was good enough, but he didn't expect that there are heaven and man outside the sky, and there are people outside the sky. The virtuous king really lives up to his reputation. Today, this son invites you to eat meat."
After speaking, he was hit by a chestnut on the head.
"Senior Nangong's trick of borrowing flowers to present Buddha is really beautiful. It is clearly a treat for my prince and concubine. How come it is your treat?"
Ling Muer deliberately teased him.
Seeing Nangong Yizhi's daring to be angry but not deflated, Shangguan Shaochen and Su Ce chuckled. How long has it been since they were so relaxed and happy?
"Report to the second prince, and the sixth prince's personal servant is asking to see him outside the gate of the mansion." The servant came to report in a hurry, breaking the rare atmosphere.
The faces of several people instantly became stern.
"It's true that Cao Cao and Cao Cao will be here." Nangong Yizhi looked back, making himself the master, "Where is he?"
The slave looked at Nangong Yizhi, then shifted his gaze to Shangguan Shaochen, and after getting his approval, he said, "It's just outside the gate of the mansion. It is said that there is a clue to the murder of the Seventh Prince, and by the order of the Sixth Prince Come and report."
"Then why are you still standing there, please hurry up!" Nangong Yizhi said impatiently. But after the servant left, he immediately stretched his neck to look at everyone.
"What's the situation? In less than a day, the sixth prince found the clue? Didn't it mean that he was the mastermind behind the scenes? What's the matter, is he going to send himself to the prison?"
Ling Muer slapped him again, "Would you do this instead?"
"of course not!"
"Then you still ask."
Nangong Yizhi: ...
"Qin Ruochen has deep thoughts and different personalities, but he will never do anything that harms his own interests. I'm afraid this is part of his plan." As soon as Su Ce finished speaking, the sixth prince's bodyguards had already come slowly.
"I have seen the second prince, the second concubine, the prince of Nangong, the virtuous king, and send my regards to all the masters."
"Exemption." Shangguan Shaochen didn't turn his head back, "Why did the Sixth Emperor ask you to come here late at night, but what did you find?"
"The second prince is wise. After receiving the emperor's decree, the master immediately sent people to investigate and interrogated all the jailers overnight. Only then did he find a clue. It turned out that the former enemy of the seventh prince pretended to be a jailer and sneaked into Lao Nei, and secretly killed the seventh prince. It's a pity that this person was supervised by the second prince before he could get out of his body." The slave said, and handed over a document, "This is the murderer's confession letter, and I ask the second prince to learn from it."
Shangguan Shaochen glanced at it casually, and the above content was roughly the same as what the servant said, but he repeated how the Seventh Prince suppressed him before he was alive, and the jailer only started with hatred, etc.
It's just, is this drawing book true or false...
"The sixth prince has worked hard, but it's late tonight, so go back and reply to your master. The prince will wait for him outside the imperial study room tomorrow morning and report to the emperor together. The sixth prince contributed a lot to finding the murderer, and this prince will not be alone." Take credit." Shangguan Shaochen's words were very cold.
"It's the second prince, but the master asked the slave to give this to you. The master said, I must hand it over to you personally!" Before leaving, the slave handed over another letter. Already left the mansion gate.
"What did you write, let me see, what did Qin Ruochen get again!" Nangong Yizhi has always been fond of letters, so he rushed over, wanting to snatch the letter but didn't dare, so he stretched beside his cousin. He looked at his neck from the corner of his eye.
Unexpectedly, the joy on Shangguan Shaochen's face after reading it turned livid in an instant!
He put the note on the table and motioned everyone to read it together.
"Rongcheng divides the rudder, Yu Ling dispatches, attack."
Ling Mu'er read every word, but didn't understand the meaning of the words. But when the final sound fell, she suddenly realized it!
"I see! No wonder Qin Xuanting didn't struggle before his death. We have always suspected that an acquaintance committed the crime. Now it seems that it is not an acquaintance, but someone he trusts!"
Ling Muer spoke nervously, and Shangguan Shaochen quickly understood the meaning of her words.
"Lao Qi will not live in peace in the prison, he will try his best to go out or meet his father and imperial concubine Min, the only person who can help him in the death cell is the jailer!" Shangguan Shaochen analyzed.
"So, Qin Xuanting thought that the jailer who came forward to help was someone who could help him, so he wrote this letter. Unexpectedly, when he was writing, the jailer took a silver needle to seal his blood, and then took the opportunity to seal his blood. Cut off his breath, and finally create the illusion of hanging himself!" Su Ce added.
Three people come and go, it seems that the murder is at the scene.
Nangong Yizhi, who was eating meat, didn't know whether to put the chopsticks in his mouth or take them out. He looked at the three well-organized three people who analyzed the whole thing in disbelief, "You... what's going on? As if you witnessed it at the scene, you can tell with just this piece of paper? This can't be Qin Ruochen's trick to kill us, right?"
"Although Yizhi's words are straightforward, they are not unreasonable!" Shangguan Shaochen didn't think what he said was wrong.
He immediately whistled into the air.
The dark guard hidden in the air jumped out silently in the dark night.
"Check carefully, inside and outside Rongcheng, don't miss anything." Shangguan Shaochen handed the note to the secret guard.
The dark guard disappeared immediately after responding, leaving only a wisp of breeze, as if it had never been there.
"We have searched inside and outside Rongcheng, and there is no clue. Cousin, are you sure you want to search again?" Nangong Yizhi didn't want to make unnecessary sacrifices.
"If you don't try it, you won't know if it's true or not! People who are about to die have good words. Qin Xuanting will never let go of his last hope. This letter is probably true." Su Ce replied, acting Shangguan Shaochen, At the same time, I made a decision in my heart.
He must keep an eye on this Qin Ruochen!
"But Yu Ling, it says that only Yu Ling can be dispatched." Nangong Yizhi shrugged meaninglessly, "Even if we find people, so what does Qin Xuanting mean? Without Yu Ling, we can't dispatch those people. death, but the emperor will never allow us to raid a prince's house, how can we get the jade order without searching?"
Shangguan Shaochen was also lost in thought.
"How about I go again?" Su Ce volunteered, "I know the secret room of the Seventh Prince's Mansion better than any of you."
"No need!" Shangguan Shaochen and Ling Muer said in unison.
The former didn't want to owe Su Ce more. After all, the Seventh Prince's Mansion's secret passage was in danger, and he had already narrowly escaped once.
But he didn't understand why Mu'er wanted to stop Su Ce?
Seeing Shangguan Shaochen's somewhat hurt eyes, Ling Muer gave a 'puchi' smile, and pinched his palm in a corner under the table where no one could see, as if trying to comfort something, but her other hand had already been taken out of her pocket. I bought a piece of jade pendant.
"I don't know if this is a jade order that can control those people, but this jade pendant was left by Sister Sheng'er before she left."
