Rebirth of Glory and Splendour - Chapter 81
After being stunned for a moment, Wei Chongrong asked, “Yingying, did your father find anything before you left the capital?”
Huo Yingying shook her head and replied, “Your Highness let us set off overnight, saying that we must not be delayed on the road, and we must get to Qingjia as quickly as possible. He asked me to tell you that no matter what happened next, he didn’t see his handwriting. Letter, you must not leave Qingjia half a step.”
“What?!” Wei Chongrong was stunned for a second. Wei Zhao didn’t let him go back to Beijing. Has the situation in Yujing been so serious?
Seeing that Wei Chongrong was a little unconvinced, Huo Yingying emphasized in a very precise tone: “Your Highness indeed ordered this, and he repeated it more than once. He also asked me to send a letter not to go back for the time being, and stay in Qingjia to obey your orders. “
Jun Hua had been listening quietly to Wei Chongrong and Huo Yingying’s conversation before, when Fang asked, “Brother Rong, do you think the situation of the female official is the same as the third prince at that time, and his mind was controlled by others. ?”
Wei Chongrong was silent, thinking seriously. Huo Yingying frowned and said, “Little Prince, are you talking about the Gu technique?”
Jun Hua nodded, that’s what he meant. Wei Chongrong couldn’t guard against Wei Mao, who was being controlled. If Wei Kou’s dowry was the same way, Wei Xuan would definitely be hard to guard against. He wouldn’t be wary of her at all. .
Huo Yingying thought for a moment, then shook her head gently: “Lu Wang Neijun checked the body of the female official who committed suicide, and said that there was no sign of being attacked. The queen also said that the female official’s thinking was very clear and her speech was well-organized, it was not like she was being attacked. control.”
Jun Hua was a little disappointed when he heard this, but Wei Chongrong let out a sigh of relief instead. Gu techniques are not omnipotent, the kind that Tuya used to control Wei Mao last time, according to Bai Li Pei, even if it is very advanced, it is definitely not something that ordinary Gu Masters can do. Even so, Tuya’s time to control Wei Mao’s mind is very limited. She should have performed magic on Wei Mao shortly before Wei Chongrong and others arrived in the Valley of Ecstasy. When Wei Chongrong saw Wei Mao, his His sanity is not very clear, and he even talked nonsense at him, but he was confused when he cared, and he didn’t pay enough attention at that time.
Wei Kou’s dowry officer is not the same. She came all the way from Nanyue. If she was used in advance, the people who traveled with her would definitely see the clue. If the mission of the entire Nanyue mission was to assassinate the prince, then there was no need to deal with her alone. Got intoxicated.
However, from the standpoint of South Vietnam, there is absolutely no need for them to make it through with Dayan. From Wei Kou’s standpoint, she has no reason to get along with Wei Xuan. There is no logic at all for such an approach.
He had already asked what he should have asked. Seeing Huo Yingying’s tired face, Wei Chongrong knew that the past four days had not been easy for her, so he said, “Yingying, you have eaten and rested early, we will not disturb you.” After finishing speaking, he took Jun Hua out of Huo Yingying’s room.
When the two came to the study, Junhua saw that there was no one around, and asked in a low voice, “Brother Rong, do you think it will be King Zhao?”
Wei Chongrong snorted softly and sneered: “You said Wei Lan, his suspicion is of course the biggest, but I am very worried that he will not leave any evidence, otherwise, he will not dare to do it.”
“How is that possible?” Jun Hua’s eyes were small, and doubts flashed in his eyes, “If you want people to not know, you must do it yourself.”
“Huaixi, don’t forget Weilan’s identity. He is the second son of the uncle of the emperor. As long as there is an accident with the prince’s brother, he is the biggest beneficiary and the biggest suspect. If he is not completely sure, how can he easily Is it to make a wedding dress for the third brother? You think about Qingcheng, we just suspected that he was Li Jing, but before we could confirm, he was played to death by Tuduo, and died just right. I have always suspected that Wei Lan There are some forces in his hands that you and I don’t know, but I don’t understand, how did he get these?”
When it comes to Qingcheng, Junhua is silent. The news of his death came too suddenly, and there is no body left. It is hard to believe that it is not Jin Chan who escaped. Due to Wei Chongrong’s suspicion of Qingcheng’s identity and his sudden death, Junhua was worried that Ji Xin had problems with Zhu Xia’s intelligence network, so he told him the whole thing. Ji Xin did not dare to take it lightly, and carried out a thorough combing from top to bottom, and the results were shocking.
Judging from the early data, there is no problem with Qingcheng’s origin. He was born in an orphan, and he was cultivated at the age of six. At that time, Li Jing was still in the capital, and the two could never be the same person. The problem is that after three years in Tai’an, the information transmitted by Qingcheng began to be omissions. This is a mistake anyone may make. After all, he did not lie about military intelligence, but when collecting intelligence, it was not comprehensive enough. However, if you look back, you will clearly find that Qingcheng’s performance before and after three years in Tai’an was completely different.
Thinking that Qingcheng suffered a serious injury for half a year in three years in Tai’an, Ji Xin and Junhua had every reason to believe that Li Jing replaced the original Qingcheng in that year. Besides, the undercover agent who sneaked into Zhu Xia was a one-line connection. Li Jingneng replaced Qingcheng without knowing it, and there were always people around him who covered him, and there was more than one. It was also at that time that Ji Xin realized how deep Shangguan Yi’s roots were in Yizhou. He had been dead for so many years, and Li Jing could still come and go freely under his banner, and then a more thorough cleanup followed.
After a long silence, Wei Chongrong said slowly: “Huaixi, let’s not guess any more, let’s wait for the news of my father.”
Junhua gave a soft “um”. A few days ago, he was still happily thinking about where he would go to play with Wei Chongrong, and let his father and father agree to their marriage earlier. Don’t have those thoughts anymore, as long as everyone is safe and sound.
Compared with Jun Hua, Huo Yingying is the more pitiful one. She and Tuoba Xianhan are getting married at the end of this month. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen on His Majesty’s Longevity Festival, causing them to be separated from each other, and their marriage is far away.
Separation is nothing, Huo Yingying is not an ignorant little girl, but Xianhan was kept in Yujing by Wei Zhao, and the task to be performed might be very dangerous, but she couldn’t help him by his side, and she felt really sorry.
Time passed slowly amid people’s anxious waiting and pious anticipation. Wei Chongrong did not wait for Wei Zhao’s letter, but waited for the bad news of the death of the prince. He felt a “boom”, and his mind instantly became blank. , as if a thunderbolt had hit his head.
brother prince…
Did he just leave…
Jun Hua saw Wei Chongrong standing in despair, with no expression on his face, so he couldn’t help but pounced over and hugged him tightly from behind.
Junhua had just turned seven years old when he left Yujing, so he didn’t have many opportunities to deal with Wei Xuan, but the crown prince in his mind had always been a gentle and amiable good person. When he met Wei Xuan, he would kiss and hug him with a smile.
When he first heard the news of Wei Xuan’s death, Jun Hua felt gloomy, as if he was out of breath.
He is still like this, Wei Chongrong and Wei Xuan’s relationship is far more intimate than his, and the sadness is simply indescribable.
“As long as I find a piece of evidence, I will never let him go!” Wei Chongrong clenched his fists, his fingertips sank deep into his palm, the blue veins on the back of his hands were obviously bursting, and there was a deep chill in his eyes that couldn’t be driven away. .
The death of the prince is a national mourning, but the emperor, the queen mother and the queen are all there, and the prince walks in front of them, so the funeral ceremony is naturally simpler. Folks need to wear plain clothes within a month, and they are not allowed to get married, instead of wearing plain clothes for 100 days and not getting married like the emperor’s funeral.
The prince’s first seven days were not over, and news came out from the palace that the princess was pregnant. It was diagnosed by the imperial doctor after Xie Qiu fainted while crying.
Wei Ming was silent for a long time after hearing the news, and said to Wei Zhao, “Azhao, if Aqiu has a boy, I want to be the grandson.”
Hearing this, Wei Zhao’s expression became slightly stunned, and after a while, he said, “Brother Huang, this matter must not be taken too hastily.”
In Wei Zhao’s view, Wei Ming’s decision was very unwise. A newborn baby, without a father, how to sit firmly in the position of grandson, his uncles will try to pull him down .
Even if Wei Ming really had this idea, he should have kept his position in vain, raised his grandson patiently, and waited until he was old enough to be able to bear the corresponding responsibilities, and then let him name the grandson. Otherwise, he would put Xie Qiu and his son on fire. bake.
However, the child has not yet been born and the gender is unknown, so Wei Zhao did not say much. Not long after Wei Xuan’s death, Wei Ming was in unbearable grief, and his mental state was not particularly good. When the child was born, he might not have the same thoughts as he is today.
If Xie Qiu really gave birth to a son, and Wei Ming was really eager to have a grandson, it would not be too late for him to persuade him.
Wei Ming waved his hand, indicating that Wei Zhao didn’t need to say more: “Azhao, how is the investigation of what I told you?”
Wei Zhao looked embarrassed, and said solemnly, “All the members of the South Vietnam Mission have been interrogated separately, and they all say they don’t know anything about this matter. I have read their testimonies and found no problems, unless all of them are Collusion beforehand, otherwise there is no problem.”
Wei Ming remained silent for a long time, then said, “Where’s Kouer’s dowry maid, and their family…”
Wei Zhao’s expression became more hesitant, and hesitantly said: “There is something wrong with the family of the palace maid who committed suicide, but the identity of the person behind the scenes has yet to be further confirmed. The younger brother doesn’t want to let the real murderer go, and he doesn’t want to wrong the good person.”
Wei Ming heaved a long sigh and waved, “Azhao, go down first, and report anything at any time.”
Wei Zhao cupped his hands and said, “The younger brother retire, and I also ask the emperor to mourn and obey, and take care of the dragon’s body.”
When he came out of the Xuanshi Palace, Wei Zhao saw Jiang Che unexpectedly, and he waved to him, as if he was waiting for him on purpose. Wei Zhao didn’t hesitate, raised his legs and walked over. Jiang Che was waiting for him here, and he must have something to say to him.
“His Royal Highness Prince Yong’an.” Wei Zhao greeted Jiang Che softly.
“His Royal Highness Qin, let’s talk after leaving the palace.” Jiang Che’s voice was very low, as if he was afraid of being heard.
Wei Zhao understood, no more words, and quietly left the palace with Jiang Che.
