After a brief silence, Emperor Chongrui smiled and said:
"Tell me, what did you ask just now?"
Seeing that Emperor Chongrui had no intention of blame, Jia Chen felt a little relieved and smiled indifferently:
"Report to Your Majesty, after the inquiry and analysis of the minister, one thing can be determined."
As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Chongrui urged impatiently: "Speak quickly."
Jia Chen raised his lips slightly and said:
"Gui Ren Zhou has ulterior motives, so he must have nothing to do with the disappearance of the second prince."
Emperor Chongrui nodded deeply in agreement.
Just now, Concubine Zhou actually wanted to frame Jia Chen, which shows that Concubine Zhou was guilty and was anxious to jump over the wall. She wanted to frame Jia Chen first and get rid of Jia Chen's interrogation and investigation.
Because Jia Chen is unparalleled in his wisdom, if Jia Chen continues to be the presidency of the case, then the crime of Zhou Guiren assassinating the second prince will sooner or later be revealed.
If someone else presides over the trial of the case, there is no need for Concubine Zhou to come up with this bad decision.
It’s a pity that the person in charge is Jia Chen, who has outstanding strategies.
In desperation, Concubine Zhou had no choice but to use the beauty plan.
But Jia Chen's heart was as hard as iron and unmoved.
Concubine Zhou had no choice but to frame Jia Chen and molest him.
Fortunately, Emperor Chongrui was not a fool, so he easily saw through the poisonous plan of Concubine Zhou.
I have to say that although Emperor Chongrui was a little unrestrained, he was still smart and was not a fool.
Emperor Chongrui asked: "Jia Aiqing, did you ask for any key information?"
As soon as these words came out, Jia Chen responded with a confident expression:
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I just pretended to tell the nobleman Zhou that the second prince had been found.
When Weichen said this, Concubine Zhou showed concern on his face and hurriedly asked the second prince what was wrong?"
Emperor Chongrui asked coldly:
"Then how did you answer?"
Jia Chen said: "I said the second prince was safe and sound. After hearing this, Confused appeared on his face."
Hearing this, Emperor Chongrui's face darkened, and a resentful light flashed in Yan's eyes.
It seems that the second prince is in danger.
The second prince should have been killed by Zhou Guiren and others. Therefore, when Jia Chen told Zhou Guiren that the second prince was safe and sound, Zhou Guiren would show a puzzled expression.
This hateful poisonous woman!
Emperor Chongrui wished she would peel off her skin and suck her tendons now!
But now that the accomplice of Zhou Guiren has not been found, Emperor Chongrui could only endure it first.
Although there was no definite evidence, he believed most of the time.
Concubine Zhou is one of the masterminds behind the murder of the second prince!
Emperor Chongrui said sternly:
"Guru Zhou is just a wife and is still in the palace. She will definitely not be able to assassinate the second prince by herself. She should have a conspiracy. How do you plan to find out her accomplices?"
After the words came to an end, Jia Chen thought for a moment and said:
"Your Majesty, you can only catch a turtle in the jar after confirming the identity of his accomplice."
As soon as these words came out, Emperor Chongrui hurriedly asked:
"Jia Aiqing is unparalleled in wisdom, what are you doing?"
"Your Majesty is too good, but I did come up with a plan."
Emperor Chongrui said impatiently:
"Then you can talk about it in detail!"
As soon as this was said, Jia Chen came to him and said something carefully.
"Okay! Good idea!"
Emperor Chongrui's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded and praised:
"Just follow your plan!"
"I obey the order!"
Jia Chen gave a gift.
After a while, after Zhou Guiren finished his appearance, he came to the main hall again.
However, what she unexpectedly expected was that Emperor Chongrui and Jia Chen were no longer in the hall.
Between doubts, Concubine Zhou waited alone in the hall.
In the empty hall, she was the only one sitting withered, and the temperature seemed to be a little lower.
After sitting anxiously for a while, Zhou Guiren's eyes flowed in the hall.
After looking around for a few circles, her eyes suddenly fell to the dragon throne of Emperor Chongrui.
Somewhat weird is that there is a ball of paper on the ground there.
What is that?
Could it be the note Jia Chen wrote to Emperor Chongrui?
Will it be related to the second prince?
The more Zhou Guiren thought about it, the more he became more and more anxious.
She looked around and saw that there was no one, so she hugged and ran over, leaned over and picked up the ball of paper.
After confirming again that there was no one in the hall, she hid behind the door and carefully unfolded the note.
There are not many words on it.
Only a few names were written:
Prince Zhongshun, the old concubine, Zhou Jun, and Wang Shouli.
Seeing the names of these people, Zhou Guiren's eyelids trembled and was shocked.
Because Prince Zhongshun has a very high status, he competed with Emperor Chongrui at that time for the throne.
Zhou Jun is her grandfather, and Wang Shouli must be an important member of Prince Zhongshun's party.
In fact, the envoy behind the murder of the second prince this time was Prince Zhongshun!
Through the connection between these names, Zhou Guiren immediately understood, and Emperor Chongrui was probably aware of something!
Perhaps he has already suspected Prince Zhongshun.
But I wonder if I have doubted myself?
Concubine Zhou still has a little luck in her heart.
At this moment, the hall gate was suddenly pushed open.
A figure stepped in.
A majestic voice suddenly rang in my ears:
"My dear, what are you looking at?"
Upon hearing this, Concubine Zhou's face changed drastically. When she looked in the sound, she saw Emperor Chongrui standing beside him at some point.
Oops!
It was actually discovered!
In a panic, Zhou Guiren hurriedly held the paper ball in his hand and said stutteringly:
"It's nothing. I just remember some of the calligraphy experiences taught to me by Lord Jia."
"Then Jia Chen actually touched you! What do you remember about such a traitor? You are not allowed to mention him in front of me in the future!"
"I obey the order!" Zhou Guiren was delighted and quickly responded.
This is really a surprise.
Unexpectedly, my plan really worked!
Emperor Chongrui pinched his eyebrows and said tiredly:
"Forget it, let's not mention that bastard. I'm not talking about the mischievous mood. Prince Zhou, please go and rest. I have some important matters." After that, he waved.
Concubine Zhou was eager to leave quickly, and immediately gave a blessing: "Yes! I will leave!"
After saying that, she turned around and left.
However, just after walking a few steps, a majestic voice suddenly came from behind:
“Let’s wait.”
Unexpectedly, Emperor Chongrui actually called her.
Hearing these two short words, Zhou Guiren's heart trembled, his breathing stagnated, and his blood was so scared that his blood flowed backwards, and his spine became cold, but he turned around and said softly:
"I am here, what instructions does Your Majesty have?"
After the words came to an end, Emperor Chongrui just looked at her deeply and waved his hand:
"Forget it, go and talk about it later."
What does Your Majesty mean?
Guiren Zhou didn't dare to ask too much, and turned around and left quickly.
Although I don’t know what I was selling in Emperor Chongrui’s gourd, Concubine Zhou felt a little uneasy.
But she didn't notice how cold and resentful Emperor Chongrui looked at her behind her.
It was like a beast that was about to swallow her alive.
