Yuan Chen said: "This was found during the search for the Wolf King. The guards found signs of loose soil here, and unexpectedly dug up the Wolf King and a corpse.
This shows that Gu’s guess is correct, the wolf attack last night was not a coincidence, someone deliberately attracted the wolves.”
Yan Qin was shocked. He stared at the corpse on the ground and asked, "Who is he?"
Yuan Chen said: "Judging from the clothes the corpse was wearing, it should be a palace guard."
Yan Qin frowned. He walked over and turned the body over, and then he saw the guard's face clearly.
He was stunned for a moment and said hurriedly: "I saw this person during yesterday's hunting trip. He is someone close to His Royal Highness Prince Ping."
Yuan Chen was startled and asked: "Did you see clearly? There were so many guards entering the forest yesterday, how did you know he was with King Ping?"
Yan Qin said: "You can't be wrong. This man has an obvious black mole on his chin. I happened to meet Prince Ping in the forest yesterday and walked with him for a while, so I can't remember it wrong."
Yuan Hao walked with him yesterday, deliberately trying to please him, but he didn't take it seriously.
He had always looked down on Prince Ping, a good-for-nothing prince, so naturally he disdained being associated with him. Now that he thought about it, Prince Ping might have been ambitious for a long time.
Yuan Chen frowned and said, "But how could the second brother's bodyguard die here and be found together with the body of the Wolf King? Could it be that someone framed him?"
Yan Qin said: "His Royal Highness, you are too kind. Have you never doubted the ambition of His Highness Prince Ping?"
Yuan Chen reprimanded and said: "Be careful, the second brother has always kept aloof from the world and has a deep love for brother Gu. What ambitions can he have? In Yi Gu's opinion, he must be innocent."
Seeing that Yuan Chen believed in King Ping so much, Yan Qin couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He said, "Yesterday King Ping approached me deliberately and wanted to win over me.
Prince Ping and you are both His Majesty's sons, and he has never been favored. Although he seems to be indifferent on the surface, who can guarantee that he will not want to take His Majesty's place?"
Yuan Chen frowned, as if he was persuaded by him, he murmured: "Could it be that my second brother really did it? But why would he do this? This doesn't make sense at all."
Yan Qin guessed Yuan Hao's intention and said: "Last night there was chaos and His Majesty was almost in danger. Didn't Prince Ping take advantage of the chaos to save His Majesty?
If His Highness the Prince's arrow saved someone else, wouldn't the credit for the rescue belong to His Highness Prince Ping himself?
If you want to be appreciated by His Majesty, what better way than to save your life?
Prince Ping did this just to gain favor in front of His Majesty while taking advantage of the chaos. Of course, it would be better if you could take advantage of the chaos and kill His Highness."
Yuan Chen knew that Yan Qin was a smart man, which was why he trusted him so much in his previous life.
But in the end he still betrayed him.
Yuan Chen said: "This is just your guess. This person's identity will be investigated clearly. Before that, don't feel resentful towards Prince Ping, lest you wrongly accuse him."
Yan Qin had long believed that this matter must be related to Prince Ping. Although he agreed with his mouth, he didn't think so in his heart. The hatred for killing his father was irreconcilable.
Yuan Chen added: "By the way, Prince Ping's secret meeting with Miss Han last night was discovered by the bodyguard, which alarmed the emperor. They are already physically related. The emperor will issue a decree to marry him in the near future."
"What?"
Yan Qin was startled and said: "Prince Ping and Miss Han? This...how is this possible?"
Yuan Chen said: "I don't know what's going on? In short, this matter is a foregone conclusion. I asked Miss Han and she said it was voluntary.
Your sister has always been on good terms with Miss Han, why not ask her to ask?"
Yan Qin's expression changed. His sister was on good terms with Han Leyi, but they both clearly loved the prince. How could Han Leyi be with Prince Ping?
Moreover, Han Leyi is a very scheming woman. If she married Prince Ping, how could she be willing to let his sister marry the prince?
