When the sky was still dark, the paddock had already been cleaned up.
The eldest prince got up early, thinking of what Yin Shuo said yesterday that his conversation was heard by others, and still brooded.
He wanted to go to Yin Shuo to ask about the situation of the investigation, but he was helpless with people coming and going, he finally chose to avoid suspicion for the time being and walked towards the account of the concubine Xian.
Concubine Xian had been freshened and dressed, and she changed into a plain dress, wearing only a plain silver hairpin on her head.
Her face was pale, the rouge gouache was not used, it looked like she was grieving for the death of Emperor Ning. Only the eldest prince knew that she was afraid and excited.
"You came?"
When Concubine Xian saw the eldest prince, a smile broke out in her eyes, "Sit down and drink a cup of hot milk, and will have to rush back to the imperial capital. This hour is the coldest."
The prince looked out of the account, and the north wind howled like an unwilling roar.
He suddenly remembered that Emperor Ning hadn't even left the last sentence before his death. His heart was quickly smashed by the lotus arrow. When he died, he only glanced at the second prince, and then at him and Yin Shuo.
At that time, everyone did not react, but the three of them clearly saw Ning Di's eyes.
He was shocked when he saw the second prince, and when he looked at himself and Yin Shuo again, he was clear and resentful.
He closed his eyes, "Yeah, it's cold."
Concubine Xian eagerly said, "How is it? Did the eavesdropper find out yesterday, who is it?"
The eldest prince took a sip of milk. There were cows in the paddock. The milk was freshly squeezed from the cows in the middle of the night, and it was the most sweet.
But somehow, he drank some fishy smell, and then put it down after a sip.
"When I went to find Prime Minister Yin last night, he hadn't found it yet. He promised that he would be found out. It is a man in dark green clothes. Does the mother concubine have any clues?"
"The man in dark green clothes..."
Concubine Xian frowned, unable to think that she had ever seen such a person. "The men who could ride and shoot yesterday followed your majesty to hunt in the mountains. Only the female family members and the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army are left here. The soldiers wear bright yellow. Military uniforms, you don’t need to talk about the female families..."
"Wait!"
Concubine Xian suddenly remembered something, "Are you sure Yin Shuo is talking about men?"
The eldest prince listened to her with profound meaning, "If it's not a man, what clue does the mother concubine have?"
"The princess Xikun wore dark green clothes yesterday. The other women were all dressed up gorgeously and brightly. Only she wore a man-like safari outfit, but I was very impressed."
The eldest prince frowned, "I saw her yesterday. She was wearing a pink green dress, not a dark green hunting suit."
Concubine Xian hurriedly said: "She originally wore dark green clothes, but later said she was going back to change her clothes. She hadn't returned for a long time. Then we saw a woman riding a horse towards the mountains and forests. She was changed into a pink green dress!"
All the clues point to Kun Yuyang. Concubine Xian intuitively felt that the eavesdropper was her, "Now, go to Yin Shuo's place and ask if you can confirm that the eavesdropper is a man. After all, she is wearing a hunting suit. Yin Shuo's men didn't see clearly that they mistakenly regarded women as men, wouldn't it be a mistake?"
The eldest prince got up immediately, "Okay, boy, go and ask Yin Shuo!"
Yin Shuo's tent was brightly lit, and he didn't sleep at all that night, and had been sending people to inquire about the man in dark green clothes.
"Grand Prince, we found that there were only three men wearing dark green clothes in the paddock today. But these three people have been hunting in the mountains and forests with Your Majesty's team, and it is impossible to appear in the large tent at that time."
Yin Shuo listened to the report of his subordinates, and pondered for a moment, "No matter whether they may appear in the big tent or not, they will kill them. This matter can't leave any possible handles. I would rather kill three thousand by mistake. Let go of one."
The subordinate was about to take the order to do it, the eldest prince suddenly broke into the account.
Yin Shuo showed displeasure and glanced outwards, and saw that there were no talents outside who could barely feel relieved.
"Why did the prince come suddenly?"
The eldest prince glanced at the two subordinates standing next to him, and said directly: "Can the prime minister be sure that the eavesdropper is a man?"
Yin Shuo didn't know why he had this question. He looked at the two subordinates, "It is the two of them who were overheard in the discussion. You can ask them if the eldest prince has any questions."
The prince looked aggressive, and one of them hurriedly said, "Going back to your Highness, that man can martial arts, and he is very light. When we chased out, we only saw a dark green corner of clothing, like the corner of a hunting suit, so Judging that it was a man in dark green clothes."
The eldest prince slapped the man with a backhand, "Fuzzy! Is it a man who has martial arts and wears hunting costumes? Dongling's women do not know martial arts for a long time in deep boudoirs, have you never thought that they are Xikun women?"
Yin Shuo stood up from the seat, "His Royal Highness, what does this mean?"
The eldest prince said angrily: "The mother concubine said that Kun Yuyang was wearing a dark green hunting suit yesterday, and it was later changed to a pink green dress. They Xikun women were able to martial arts, and she suddenly hurried in at that time. Who is from the mountain forest besides her?!"
The two subordinates knew they had made a mistake, and immediately knelt down to plead guilty, "The subordinate knows it was wrong, and the subordinate will go and kill the princess Xikun!"
"Wait!"
Yin Shuo stopped the two of them, "That's Princess Xikun, Dongling's imperial wife. Killing her would be too much movement. Ning Xuan looked like a dude, but in fact, he was better than anyone else in his heart. How easy is it to kill his wife under his nose?"
Having determined who it is, but unable to kill her, the eldest prince is so anxious that she loses her former demeanor completely, "What should we do? Let her live and tell others our secrets?"
"Naturally not."
Yin Shuo took a deep look at him, "His Royal Highness is going to be more sensible now. Those ministers in the middle of the court are all human beings. If Your Highness can't keep your breath, you don't need Kun Yuyang to tell others, you think they can't see you. Is it abnormal?"
The eldest prince was stunned, took a deep breath, recalling that he had not been normal from yesterday to today, no wonder Yin Shuo said that.
He personally designed to kill his father, and seeing Emperor Ning die in front of him, how is he normal? !
It cannot be normal, and it must be normal.
After a while, the eldest prince finally relaxed, and asked in a deep voice: "Can't kill her, then the prime minister has any better idea?"
Yin Shuo nodded and said: "The second prince was in custody. Now the imperial concubine and the elder prince are honored here. Now the eldest prince may ask the concubine and the prince to come forward and mobilize the Yulin army to search everywhere. The second prince is assassinated. Your Majesty is very serious, and it is inevitable that there will still be comrades in the party. For the safety of your relatives and noble ministers, you must search."
This is a good reason, the prince said: "Do you want to take this opportunity to search for Kun Yuyang?"
"Yes, when the time comes, you can find a reason at will, just detain her first. She is a sensitive princess Xiqun, and no one dares to be beaked when she is detained at this juncture."
The eldest prince walked out of the account immediately, "It should not be too late, I will ask the mother and concubine for help."
…
Amid the noise of pulling out the camp and returning to the palace, there were more movements of the Imperial Forest Guards searching everywhere.
The loud noise made everyone in the camp drowsy. When the royal clan was searched, Uncle Ning Tang got up from the bed yawning.
He was sleepy and looked confused when he saw the prince bring people in. "What is the prince here for me?"
The eldest prince looked around and did not see Kun Yuyang, but on the screen he saw the clothes that Kun Yuyang had changed, only the pink green dress.
He smiled awkwardly at Uncle Ning Tang, "Yesterday the second prince assassinated his father, and the concubine was worried about the safety of the accompanying female family, so I asked me to take people to search around. Where is the uncle's wife?"
Uncle Ning Tang didn't buy his account, instead he snorted, "Fortunately, she is not there, otherwise the female family will be untidy in the inner room, and the eldest prince rushed in. Do you want her reputation?"
The eldest prince's face was a bit ugly, and he thought that he really regarded himself as a grown-up, and he was obviously a few years younger than himself.
When it was about to happen, I suddenly heard Uncle Ning Tang yell outside, "Cui Ya, where is the madam? Did you go for breakfast?"
There was a sound of footsteps outside the account, and the maid named Cuiya gave a blessing, "Back to the son, the slave and the maid did not see the madam. Isn't the madam always in the tent?"
Uncle Ning Tang frowned, stood up and scratched his hair, "What's going on? It's a good man, and he's gone when he wakes up? Oh, I know!"
------Off-topic ------
Uncle Ning Tang: With all due regards, I'm just stunned by pretending to be silly, everyone in this room is a hot chicken.
