Chapter 59 The Ghost of the Grand Canal, Catch Overnight!
Qin Yun stood up and continued to scare: "Have you heard of cooking? Throw a living person into a water tank, light firewood below, cover the lid, and cook the person to death."
Xia Yan's eyes showed a hint of fear and she cried, "Your Majesty, I said, I said!"
Qin Yun raised his eyebrows and felt so easy to let go. It seems that Xia Yan's true identity may be just a concubine and an ordinary weak woman.
"Before Lin Changshu had an accident, he had a premonition that he might fail to force the palace. He was afraid that Wang Wei would treat him as an abandoned son and ignored him, so he gave me a map and asked me to leave early."
"If things fail, let me hide the map so that Wang Wei can throw himself into a jealous way and have to find a way to save him."
"But after the failure of the matter, Wang Wei took action and sent a lot of people to chase me and wanted to silence me."
"I...I didn't have the chance to threaten him with a map."
"I was lucky and escaped during the pursuit, but I had no place to go. I wandered for a while and then was captured by the imperial guards."
Xia Yan said in fear that he had been panicked long ago when he was involved in such a conspiracy.
Qin Yun narrowed his eyes and took out the map: "Does Wang Wei know about this map?"
Xia Yan shook his head: "He doesn't know. Lin Changshu said that no one knows about this map. This is his backup plan for him to prevent him from being thrown away as a pawn."
Qin Yun asked again: "What does this map represent? Have you ever been to the marked places?"
Xia Yan said: "I don't know what it means, and I don't dare to go there either."
"It seems to be related to the assassination of the palace..."
Qin Yun's eyes were filled with a sharp light. It was not surprising that the assassination case was related to Wang Wei. What was surprised was that this map was that he felt that he had touched the truth behind the conspiracy!
This is the most important thing!
"Tell me clearly, everything you know about the assassination in the palace!"
Xia Yan looked frightened and whimpered: "Your Majesty, I said everything, can you spare my life? I really haven't participated in anything. It's just that Lin Changshu pampers me and told me a lot of things, that's all.
”
Qin Yun gestured with his eyes and asked the imperial guards to help Xia Yan up and gave her a seat.
"Tell me, as long as it is true, I will not kill you and let you get out of the prison."
Xia Yan looked at his face, then lowered his head, not daring to ask for anything more.
He spoke, "Once I heard by chance, Lin Changshu talked to a man in black, saying that he had arranged a place to settle down for them and prepared a plan to enter Xuanwu Sect. Wang Wei would cooperate and let them act when they are ugly."
"The next day, the streets and alleys of the imperial capital were talking about the assassin entering the palace to assassinate last night."
Qin Yun asked, "Who is the man in black? Do you know him?"
Xia Yan's eyes hesitated: "It seems that Lin Changshu calls him the master... This man is covered in his face, and Lin Changshu doesn't know his true identity."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yun's expression changed drastically!
master?
Is it the master who arranged the eunuch killer in the palace?
Sure enough, the same group of people conspired to have a conspiracy in the assassination case as the fire in the Tianzhuo.
But Qin Yun's face changed again. If he said this, the mysterious master was not Wang Wei. Otherwise, why would he have to communicate with Lin Changshu in a mask? He was a couple who were colluding with each other.
Mysterious Master, who could it be?
"Old Feng, Tao Yang!" he shouted decisively.
"I am in a humble position."
"I'm here."
Qin Yun turned his head: "Go, the Shadow Guard and the Imperial Guard acted together, and found the marking points on this map overnight to see where there was something weird, and he could involve the killer leader and Wang Wei at the same time!"
"yes!"
Mr. Feng and Tao Yang received the order, took the map, and left the prison as quickly as possible.
Not long after, the Shadow Guard and the most elite thousands of imperial guards quickly left the palace, sprinting across the stars and the moon, and galloping along the Grand Canal.
It is expected that it will be very late to find the deep mountains and forests when you arrive at the Grand Canal.
That night, Qin Yun was extremely uneasy.
He pondered until midnight in the imperial study room. He remembered all the past and was very suspicious that the Wang group was just an open traitor.
There was also a big fish in the secret.
And this conjecture must be found out when the mysterious master is arrested. Perhaps he can involve a lot of things.
When he was in the prison, Xia Yan also said some related things.
But they are intermittent and useless. What she knows is influenced by Lin Changshu's favor, not the direct participant in these matters.
Lin Changshu was unlucky and was in a position to prevent Wang Wei from selling himself.
But Wang Wei was even more cruel. When something happened to Lin Changshu, he immediately sent someone to kill his close friends.
In particular, Xia Yan's disappearance caused Wang Wei's uneasiness, which led to the subsequent events.
In the imperial study room, Qin Yun wanted to directly order the army to mobilize and kill the entire Wang family.
But he suppressed this impulse.
1. There is no ironclad evidence, it is all one-sided. If you take action rashly, the court will inevitably be in chaos and even palace changes.
2. If you move the Wang family, you have to eliminate them, otherwise you will only alert the snake. If the mysterious master and the killer leader in the palace are not found out, Qin Yun will be uneasy for a day.
His mind was confused and he couldn't figure out many thoughts, as if an invisible hand was controlling everything, but he was kept in the dark, and the clues were broken. This feeling was really uncomfortable.
At this time.
Eunuch Xi said softly: "Your Majesty, it's very late. Why don't you turn over the sign and rest first?"
Qin Yun was not in the mood to think about the romantic things, and frowned and said, "I just slept in the imperial study room. If any news from Mr. Feng is heard back, I will wake me up immediately."
"Yes." Eunuch Xi nodded, then stepped aside and waited.
Qin Yun lay on the dragon bed in the imperial study room and thought about things. As he thought about it, he slowly fell asleep.
In the early morning, the sky is slightly dawn!
Eunuch Xi woke him up, and as expected, Mr. Feng had a reply.
The Grand Canal sent a quick letter, with only two sentences in the letter, "The valley is the killer's base camp, I'm asking Your Majesty to increase his troops and clean up the mess."
Qin Yun lost all sleepiness and immediately summoned Xiao Jian into the palace overnight.
A few hours later.
The Mangshan Camp, closest to the Grand Canal, sent five thousand troops to the valley mentioned in the letter.
Everything happened was a secret action, no one could know.
Qin Yun sat in the imperial study room, waiting in a daze. When the morning court time came, no news was sent back on the front line.
He was anxious, but he also knew that the journey was far and not so fast.
As usual, he went to the morning court, handled government affairs, and found Yan Zhong, and listened to his report.
When it was almost noon, Qin Yun finally couldn't hold on and didn't sleep all night, feeling exhausted.
Finally, he went to Yangxin Palace to sleep in a drowsy manner.
Seeing him like this, Concubine Xiao felt very distressed and kept guarding Qin Yun by the dragon's bed, hugging him in her arms like an elder sister, making him sleep more comfortable.
Afternoon!
Qin Yun woke up and happened to be happy, father-in-law Xi rolled and crawled.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Ying Weifeng, and the others are back!"
"I also secretly escorted someone back! Mr. Feng asked His Majesty, what should I do?"
