It's just that what King Jing said is not necessarily true or false. Although there is no need for King Jing to make up lies to deceive him about this matter, there is no guarantee that King Jing has other plans, so he cannot completely believe it.
"Does the prince know the name of the assassin's leader?"
Prince Jing nodded, and then said: "It is rumored that there is a cloaked man with high martial arts skills next to Prince Du Min, named Bu Ke. This man is very skilled in martial arts and is good at setting up formations. He is Du Min's right-hand man. However, in the past year,
But I have never seen this person appear before, so I guess he must have come to Dayan."
The cloaked man? Gu Chengyu frowned slightly, this man was mysterious, "Have you seen this man's appearance before?"
Prince Jing shook his head, "No one in the world knows his appearance. This person always covers his body with a cloak and never takes it off."
Although I don’t know what he looks like, the fact that he wears a cloak all the time is an obvious feature.
It's just that in this weather, there are countless people wearing cloaks. Gu Chengyu can't just arrest people wearing cloaks when he sees them on the street, right? This is a bit tricky.
It seems that the method of arresting someone has to be placed on that person. Searching blindly will be in vain.
"There is another person named Tu Shi. This person is good at poisoning and is very strategic. He was originally an aide in the Prince's Palace. Because of his extraordinary abilities, he was appreciated by Du Min. I am sure that this person is
The man from Dayan came with him, and there was also a powerful man named Heba who came with him. It is said that he was always protecting the map master."
"Tu Shi and Bu Ke are good at conspiracy. If these two people come to Dayan, they must have some big conspiracy. The last time Master Gu went to Jiangnan to provide relief, the victims rioted. Among them, these people contributed to the trouble. Their
The purpose is to cause the victims to rise up in chaos. In troubled times, heroes emerge, and as long as the victims of the disaster revolt, it will be a disaster for the court and the people, regardless of whether it succeeds or not."
When Prince Jing talked about this, his face showed some worry and fear.
Protection? I'm afraid King Jing doesn't know yet that Heba has been killed by him. Moreover, Master Tu's kung fu is not weaker than that of Heba, or even worse.
But who were the subordinates of the group of four people we met on the road that day? From the looks of it now, those people should have nothing to do with Prince Jing.
"Fortunately, Mr. Gu was able to turn the tide, otherwise there would have been big mistakes in this flood."
Prince Jing suddenly sighed with emotion towards Gu Chengyu. At that time, he wanted to make a fortune by raising food prices, but Gu Chengyu disrupted his plan midway.
In order to prevent Gu Chengyu from finding out about him, he forced the people he sent to endure it. He also repeatedly told them not to go against Gu Chengyu, thus giving up the plan.
In fact, his life in Fengqing Mansion these years was not easy. The land in Fengqing Mansion was barren, and the annual profits from the fiefdom were not even enough to pay the taxes to the court. He was a dignified prince, and he was extremely poor.
The Fengqing Mansion tried its best to seize the throne, but when he, the prince, went away, those people did not give him face at all. Isn't it because the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and no one will support him?
As a prince, he was not favored by his father. Even if he was bullied severely, his father would not stand up for him.
He was suppressed by these forces in the first year, but when he first arrived in the fiefdom, he wanted money but no money, and he wanted people but no one, so he couldn't use his fists. Seeing that no one in the court stood up for him, these people became even more unscrupulous.
However, Longgui Shoal is still a dragon, how could it be teased by these fish and shrimps? Looking at Fengqing Mansion now, which force would not be respectful to him when they see him? Anyone who is disobedient has long been uprooted by him.
"My lord, you are so complimentary. This is definitely not the work of the lower official alone."
Gu Chengyu said politely, remembering that they had been chatting for so long, it must be getting late now, maybe it would be dawn soon, and he was still wearing night clothes, so he had to leave before dark.
So he stood up and bowed to Prince Jing, saying: "Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for clarifying my doubts today. It's getting late, but it has delayed Your Majesty's rest. I will resign now."
Prince Jing also stood up and said with a smile: "Whenever Mr. Gu changes his mind, just come to see me. I will sweep the bed to welcome you. The conditions promised before will be fulfilled one by one."
He looked at Gu Chengyu with eyes full of expectation. Although Gu Chengyu rejected him today, it didn't mean that there would be no opportunities in the future.
If Gu Chengyu was willing to be loyal and loyal to his second brother, then Gu Chengyu would not be here today.
No matter what purpose Gu Chengyu came for, Prince Jing had already achieved his purpose.
He successfully instigated the relationship between his second brother and Gu Chengyu. Although there was already a crack in the relationship between the two, he didn't mind making the crack wider.
Gu Chengyu didn't reply, but bowed again. Just as he turned to leave, he suddenly remembered that there was something he had not done.
"I believe that the prince has also heard about Zhou Yuancong's rebellion. I have to say that Mr. Zhou is a man. Facing the punishment at Dali Temple, he was able to endure it without saying a word. This really makes me admire him."
Gu Chengyu turned around with a look of admiration on his face.
The expression on Prince Jing's face froze, and he immediately put on a smile. The Tang Shen leader standing next to him secretly clenched his right hand behind his back, and looked at Gu Chengyu with a hint of shock and nervousness in his eyes.
When Gu Chengyu glanced over, he turned his head again.
Catching Prince Jing's fleeting nervousness and Tang Shenling's concealing appearance after he was about to be exposed, Gu Chengyu's lips curled up slightly.
"Although I respect Mr. Zhou, I am helpless. After all, I am also under orders to do things, so I cannot show mercy. Tomorrow's punishment will be even more cruel. I wonder if Mr. Zhou can bear it this time."
Gu Chengyu looked at Prince Jing with clear brows, and those twinkling peach blossom eyes seemed to hide countless sharp edges, but they seemed so harmless on the surface.
Prince Jing suddenly smiled, "I didn't expect Mr. Zhou to rebel. When I heard about it, I was also shocked. I don't know if there might be any misunderstanding. However, it all depends on the outcome of Mr. Gu's interrogation. I believe Mr. Gu
I will never wrong a good person."
Gu Chengyu raised his eyebrows. He was still a little unsure before, but now he is sure that Zhou Yuancong must be from Prince Jing. This is one of the reasons why he came to see Prince Jing today.
Before King Jing's general Gu Chengyu left, he suddenly said: "Tang Shenling, didn't you recently buy a jade pendant with Ruyi entangled branches? I think you are not suitable for wearing it. Why don't you give it to Mr. Gu! Mr. Gu
Her temperament is as graceful as the bright moon, so this jade is a perfect match for Mr. Gu."
Tang Shenling was a little confused when he heard this, but then his eyes widened with a look of shock on his face.
