Sledgehammer was always being bullied, so he couldn't say anything in reply to Master Ben's harsh words. He muttered something in a low voice and stepped aside.
Gao Jianli interjected with a solemn expression:
"If it wasn't done by us or Confucianism, it could only be caused by quicksand or a snare..."
This conclusion sounds nonsense at first, but if you think about it carefully... it is indeed nonsense.
Luo Wang, the sharp sword of the empire, assassinates Fu Su, the eldest son who is most likely to become the crown prince?
Liusha is even more ridiculous. It is well known that Gu Xun has no sons, and Fusu is not only the prince of the empire, but also the serious "Young Master of Liusha".
Rebellion in a double sense, right?
Sledgehammer, whose brain was always faster than his mouth, immediately wanted to jump out and question him, but probably because he had just been trained, he raised his head, immediately smiled and shrank back.
"If it was a snare or... a hand moved by quicksand, then the assassination probably represents the struggle for power within the empire, right?" Xiaoyaozi Fuxu, the head of Renzong, speculated.
His conjecture was undoubtedly reasonable, but he was a little uncomfortable saying that Liusha was suspected of assassinating his young boss in front of him.
Master Ban's brows furrowed and he said in confusion, "There is something going on between Luo Wen and Quicksand. Old man, I have always known that Luo Wen's leader, Zhongchefu Ling Zhao Gao, seems to have always been in a relationship with Gu Xun, the national preceptor.
Very bad.”
"But this is a grudge between two organizations. He shouldn't be so crazy that he would implicate Fusu, right?"
Wei Zhuang sneered and said:
"Is it always so troublesome for you to think about problems?"
Sledgehammer looked at Wei Zhuang's frustrated look and couldn't help but reply, "What can you do?"
"Ha... I have a friend who told me something - don't add entities if it's not necessary." Wei Zhuang's deep eyes swept over everyone and said in a magnetic voice, "I like it very much.
This sentence."
"You can also follow this principle when thinking about problems, and just consider and analyze it with the simplest, most effective and direct way of thinking. In the final analysis, it comes down to two words - interests!"
"Is this the way you think about problems as a bounty killer group like Quicksand?" Big Hammer replied with another grunt.
Wei Zhuang ignored him.
Zhang Liang took over the conversation with a smile, "You might as well think about it along this line of thinking, who will benefit from attacking Fusu?"
"We don't know much about the power struggle within the imperial court." Master Ban stroked his beard and looked at Gai Nie, "Mr. Gai should know more about this."
In fact, Wei Zhuang definitely knows as much as Gai Nie. However, although Master Ban is not as tight-lipped as a sledgehammer, he cannot ask Wei Zhuang if necessary.
Gai Nie glanced at Wei Zhuang and found that he had no intention of showing anything, so he had no choice but to say it himself:
"Ying Zheng has never established a queen, so he has no legitimate son. Likewise, he has never established a crown prince."
"As the eldest son, Fusu naturally becomes the most powerful candidate for the crown prince. Not only in terms of status, but also in terms of ability, he is also the most reliable candidate."
"In the eyes of most people, he is the next emperor of the empire."
"But after all, this is just the wishful thinking of others. Legally speaking, he has never been established as the crown prince by Ying Zheng, so others will still have the opportunity to ascend to that position."
"So... Mr. Gai means that this matter was secretly promoted by other princes?" Xiaoyaozi interrupted and asked.
Gai Nie did not comment on Xiaoyaozi's question, and directly threw out a piece of information that generally no one paid attention to in the world:
"Just as Gu Xun, the national master, was the teacher of the eldest son Fusu, Zhao Gao, the leader of Luowang and the magistrate of CRRC, was also the teacher of the eighteenth prince Hu Hai."
As soon as this news came out, everyone in the Mo family widened their eyes.
Jianghu people never like to pay attention to the secrets of the court.
Even an organization like the Mohist family, which is dedicated to rebellion, does not know much about the interpersonal relationships within the imperial court, especially among members of the royal family.
Among the eighteen sons of Ying Zheng, only one Fusu is really well-known. Part of the reason for this is that Fusu was influenced by his teacher.
As for the other princes, most people can't even remember their names. Although Hu Hai is the most favored youngest son among Ying Zheng, he does not receive any preferential treatment in the world.
As a chamberlain, Zhao Gao is also in charge of the spy organization's network, and his personal information is hidden quite deeply.
So no one in the Mo family had really heard of this news before.
Master Ban showed a look of astonishment and nodded repeatedly, "In this case, it makes sense. Luo Wang does have a reason to kill Fusu."
Wei Zhuang sneered and raised his eyebrows, and said in a playful tone, "Quixa also has a motive - he can direct and act to frame Zhao Gao."
"Well……"
Class Master Gao Jianli Xiaoyaozi and others glanced at each other subconsciously and did not answer the question, but they unconsciously recognized the possibility that Wei Zhuang said - although Wei Zhuang was obviously using these words to sarcastically accuse them of quicksand.
The magical operation on the head.
"Who is this Hu Hai? Is he very powerful?" Big Hammer shouted Zhang Yu's cry.
"Hu Hai is the eighteenth prince and the youngest son of Ying Zheng. He is not yet an adult, but he is deeply loved by Ying Zheng and his status is not low."
"The teacher-student relationship between him and Zhao Gao is also very close, and it is not just superficial." Gai Nie replied carefully choosing his words.
Xiaoyaozi interjected at this time, "I have occasionally heard the name of the eighteenth prince Hu Hai before, and he is indeed deeply loved by Ying Zheng."
"But he is the youngest son after all. He has nothing to do with his youth. Even if he is deeply favored, the position of Crown Prince has little to do with him, right?"
Gao Jianli frowned and continued with a steady gaze, "Maybe it's because the position of prince is too far away from him that Zhao Gao acted so radically."
Master Ban was not in a hurry to express his opinion. He looked at Gai Nie again and asked, "Mr. Gai, do you have a deeper understanding of this Hu Hai?"
Gai Nie pondered for a moment and then replied, "I had contact with him several times when I was in Xianyang."
"It seems that he is just a young man who has not yet grown up. He has an innocent and innocent personality and some arrogant and domineering behavior. He is not much different from other ordinary young people who come from noble families."
"However, he always gave me the feeling of a deep city. There seemed to be many calculations hidden deep in his eyes, making it difficult to fathom his thoughts. There was also a sense of coldness, like a poisonous snake, hidden and dangerous.
.”
"The person is not as simple as he seems."
"Of course someone who can mix with Zhao Gao will not be simple." After listening to Gai Nie's words, Wei Zhuang commented sharply.
Everyone in the Mo family ignored Wei Zhuang's casual comment and discussed the last question.
"Now the suspicion of Luo Sheng is undoubtedly the biggest. The only question is whether there is more concrete evidence pointing this matter to Luo Sheng." Master Ban said first.
