Chapter 145: The Strange Prince Pei (Twelve)
Wang Shangshu sat on the chair in the study with a calm expression on his face, looking a little old, but he could no longer see the sadness of losing his beloved daughter.
Gu Buquan stood at the table, his eyes fell uncontrollably on Wang Shangshu's hand. He was holding a jade pendant and rubbing it constantly.
She pretended to be inadvertently lowered her eyes, glanced at the water scriptures on the table, and the circles of words in the book kept flashing through her mind, but she still couldn't figure out what these words mean.
Before she followed Wang Shangshu into the study, she heard a cough behind her.
She turned around and saw the old lady standing in the distance, shook her head, and hurriedly leaving.
The old lady seemed to be asking her not to enter the study room. Her eyes were filled with deep worries and anxiety. The study room should be a place that made her feel very scared.
Everything in the study is very simple, with only one table and one chair. Obviously, except for Wang Shangshu himself, guests never invite them. For Gu Buquan, this place is much more attractive than the Buddhist temple.
I was still not satisfied with the study last night. Now that Wang Shangshu took the initiative to invite her in, how could she miss this opportunity?
After thinking about it, she still walked in.
The windows of the study are open, and the windows are covered with green bamboos.
"Our guests are here." Wang Shangshu broke the silence.
If Gu Buquan is the most reluctant to see Ling'an, that is the moment.
But he stepped into the door.
He had a secret investigation last night and should have known that the Shangshu Mansion was a huge trap and he should avoid putting himself in danger no matter what.
What she didn't know was that the letter sent by the servant to Ling'an only had three words: One person came.
Gu Biaoquan was angry and worried. She felt that she could last at least a few days in the Shangshu Mansion as her identity, or go to the Buddhist temple to find the old lady to get into a trap. I think there would be no danger for the time being.
If there is really no progress, just wait for the opportunity to leave the Shangshu Mansion. After all, I will stay in the green mountains without fear of burning firewood.
But what are you doing?
You should know that this seemingly simple and simple Shangshu Mansion exudes the same gossip as Taozhuang, especially this study room. I wonder if there are any complicated traps under every inch of land you step on?
Lord Shangshu said before at the Xichen Tea House that each department has its own responsibilities. Miss Fengque's murder should be reported to Jingzhao Prefecture to send someone to investigate, rather than alarming the God-Captain who was directly ordered by the emperor.
.
But why did he insist on Ling An to investigate?
This makes it difficult not to make people suspicious.
The Lu Zhangsi died, and the Divine Captain was temporarily in charge of General Ling. It was already busy dealing with the senior officials. What is the murder case in the Shangshu Mansion compared to the errands?
Therefore, Ling An can also reject Wang Shangshu as usual, which is reasonable.
But he came alone, and had not brought a sword.
He glanced at the study room and his heart tightened.
The simpler the place is, the more people dare not take it lightly.
His eyes swept across his inadequate face. Seeing that she was so calm, he felt relieved and then fell on Wang Shangshu's face.
"Mr. Wang, it seems that this is not the murder scene." Ling An asked.
"Well, it's not the murder scene. There is no need to bother General Ling to investigate the case. I know who the murderer is." Wang Shangshu still rubbed the jade pendant in his hand before he got up.
"Oh?" Gu Buquan and Ling An asked at the same time, "Sir, who knows the murderer is?"
"Of course it's Wang's mother." Wang Shangshu said, "She can sacrifice her life for Fengque."
"My husband saw the poison she had in his own eyes, so he came to report it to me. I asked me not to make a statement, but I just ordered that when using chicken juice and medicine soup the next day, just use half a drop, so that Fengtai is a little small
If you are sick, you won’t be able to lose your life, so things will be done. It’s a pity that man’s calculations are not as good as God’s calculations. Who knew that the little maid would steal chicken legs to Fengque. God’s will, God’s will."
Gu Buquan's hair stood upside down.
It turned out that Shangshu Wang had planned to use her to deceive Ling'an here, but he knew that Wang's mother was poisoning but did not reveal it. As a result, he accidentally killed his daughter Fengque.
Ling An also opened his mouth for a while before asking, "Sir, since he already knows the real murderer, he will send someone to Jingzhao Mansion to be imprisoned. Why did he let Ling come?"
"It's nothing more, but you'll take your life." Wang Shangshu smiled, as if he was talking about a sparse and ordinary sentence.
"Oh?" Ling An also smiled back, "There are many people who want Ling An's life. I wonder why Lord Shangshu disliked Ling?"
While speaking, Gu Buquan was already protecting him.
"I have been doing everything wrong recently, and the business I have worked hard to manage for many years has almost been destroyed in your hands. If you don't get rid of you, I may ruin my major affairs. Besides, since you have set your sights on me, how can I not do it first?
What is the principle of being strong?”
"As expected, you are the mastermind behind the fortune-telling money house, Luofuyan village, Xichen tea house, and even the strange Taozhuang."
Shangshu Wang shook his head.
"Yanzhuang, buy women who love beauty in the world, tea shops, scholars who love fame and fortune in the world, Taozhuang, buy men and women who love love in the world. Only the fortune-telling money shop is not from my husband, that is a big deal for asking fish.
I want to use it to compete with me, haha, he is too overestimated."
Wang Shangshu smiled and glanced out the window.
Gu Buquan was surprised to find that just now there was a piece of green bamboo outside the window, but at some point it turned into a peach blossom.
It is not yet the time for peach blossoms to bloom, but the peach blossoms outside the window are blooming in awe.
Could it be...
My heart couldn't help but tighten, but seeing Ling An's calm and composed appearance, she gradually relaxed. Since she came, she would be at ease. For her, there was no window that could not jump out and no wall that could not climb over.
"Fengtai, come." Wang Shangshu suddenly pulled Gu Buquan to his side.
A "crack" sound came, and a knife array erected upwards in front of Ling An, with sharp blades downwards above his head, and the peach blossoms outside the window also turned into a knife forest.
Ling An was completely trapped in the swords. If he wanted to jump out of the window, he had to face the upward tips of the swords. How easy was it to escape?
"Silly." Gu Buquan was so anxious that his throat was smoking.
"Don't be afraid, follow me and be your father."
"Don't be afraid, follow Lord Wang."
It's ridiculous, but I have to admit that it's safest to follow Wang Shangshu.
"Fengtai, he is such a fool. Stop thinking about him anymore. Think more about King Ji. King Ji is so affectionate about you. He is very moved by his father. As far as his father knows, King Ji is known, King Ji is very close to you.
I will be made the crown prince soon, and you will be the crown princess in the future. In the future, you will be the mother of the world. In the future, you will be the master's plan.
"Master?" Gu Biaoquan tried hard to calm down and asked, "Behind you, is there another master?"
"Yes, the former crown prince Yongming was the master of his father and his eternal master."
Perhaps when Wang Shangshu mentioned his master, he seemed a little excited, and his eyes were full of respect.
"I am nicknamed Scholar for my father. I walked with my second brother, swordsman and third brother, Huozhu, and I was in the world. I was forced to go to the forefront by Si Ling, the leader of the then gods. Fortunately, Prince Yongming was wise and took me three of them.
We returned to the prince's mansion. Unfortunately, the previous dynasty fell over, and my brothers and three of us fought with each other to protect Prince Yongming from the capital. But in the end, we still came back and swear to plan a big plan to return to the court as our mission, and we will never regret it even if we die."
Shangshu Wang talked freely, and Ling An and Gu Buquan remained silent. The previous dynasty was too far away from them and too unfamiliar. For them, it was real to find a way to solve the current crisis.
Her eyes glanced at Wang Shangshu's right hand.
Although Wang Shangshu kept playing with the jade pendant with his left hand, he kept putting his right hand on the lamp from beginning to end.
That must be where the mechanism that controls this study room is located.
