Unexpectedly, His Highness did not mention his suspicion of Gu Chengyu anymore. Also, such a weak young man looked so powerless, how could he be an assassin?
Gu Chengyu had no expression on his face and let the head guard look him over.
Since he is a guard in the prince's palace, he must be a counselor.
After everyone went in, Zhu Pang pulled Gu Chengyu and said, "Chengyu! Don't think too much, just check. As long as there are no assassins in the house, they will leave."
Zhu Pang comforted Gu Chengyu and felt that this was normal for dealing with the eldest prince.
Who is the eldest prince? The emperor's favorite prince may soon become the heir apparent, and they cannot afford to offend him.
Gu Chengyu smiled when he heard this, "Nothing! Let's go over and take a look!"
It was good if he didn't find it, but if he found it, he would have to give it a try.
"Let everyone in your village come out." Jin Shenling shouted to Manager Xu.
A group of people dispersed, leaving five people to identify everyone in Zhuangzi, while the rest began to search around Zhuangzi.
Gu Chengyu felt a sense of depression arise spontaneously. If the head of Zhuangzi today was a high-ranking official in the capital, then the eldest prince would definitely have to give him some face, right? How could he be so bossy?
Manager Xu glanced at Gu Chengyu, and Gu Chengyu nodded towards Manager Xu. He was quite sensible and ignored his master without seeing that the other party was the eldest prince.
After about half a stick of incense had passed, everyone in Zhuangzi was standing in the flower hall. Even Sun Xian, who was drunk, was woken up by his servants. At this time, he was holding his forehead and couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Chengyu! What's wrong?" Ye Zhiqiu also had a headache! Being woken up, he didn't sleep well at all.
As soon as I left the yard, I was shocked by the people in front of me.
Gu Chengyu shook his head, "I will explain to you later, but don't talk now."
The servants knelt down to the eldest prince and saluted him. Ye Zhiqiu and the others also knelt down.
Gu Chengyu glanced vaguely at a daughter-in-law standing in the third row with her head lowered.
Looking at it like this, he almost laughed out loud.
At first glance, she looked like a somewhat delicate-looking daughter-in-law with a slightly plump figure, but the two plump lumps in front of her body made Gu Chengyu couldn't help laughing.
That's an exaggeration! Why do you have to pretend to be so plump?
The eldest prince's eyes glanced back and forth at everyone. Gu Chengyu glanced twice, and the eldest prince's eyes were mainly focused on the man.
The eldest prince singled out people whose stature did not match the assassin's, and Hoi An was among them.
Hoi An wore slightly higher shoes and a few more clothes underneath. At this time, he was even dressed as a woman, with rouge and gouache on his face, which was very different from his male attire.
"Put your hands out, I want to check them carefully, everyone!"
Jin Shenling asked everyone to spread their hands and let him observe carefully. Even because it was night and couldn't see clearly, he even touched it.
Zhu Pang winked at Gu Chengyu and moved his hands away. They also lived in Zhuangzi and were also subjects of suspicion before the assassin was caught.
Gu Chengyu was spreading his hands, and Jin Ginseng Ling walked right in front of Gu Chengyu.
He glanced at Gu Chengyu's palms and saw that the hands were very white and slender, with slender fingers. He turned the hands over and took a look. They were undoubtedly the hands of a scholar, with no calluses on them.
Gu Chengyu often bathed in diluted spring water in space, and his hands did not have any calluses from holding a pen or a sword.
He had completely dispelled his doubts about Gu Chengyu, and he didn't even leave any calluses when holding the pen?
He could tell at a glance the hand that held the sword all year round. It should be at the tiger's mouth and in the palm. Gu Chengyu's palm was very smooth and had no calluses.
Ignoring Gu Chengyu, he walked to the side. Gu Chengyu thought of Hoi An and made some preparations, so he should be able to cope with it.
However, there are always exceptions to everything. If he is discovered, that's when he goes on a killing spree.
The eldest prince glanced at Gu Chengyu and found that he was very quiet at the moment, as if he was in a trance.
He always felt that this Gu Chengyu was not as harmless as he appeared. From beginning to end, he was very confident. After knowing his identity, nothing changed. I really don't know where his arrogance comes from?
Jin Ginseng Ling did not let anyone go. He carefully examined every pair of hands and was now approaching Hoi An.
Gu Chengyu didn't raise his eyes to pay attention. Too much attention would attract attention.
"Your Highness, sir, I have already led someone to check. There is no one else hiding in Zhuangzi."
A guard came over and reported the results of the search to the two of them.
Jin Shenling pondered for a while, then the entire Zhuangzi people were here.
Gu Chengyu thought in his heart, Li Chun, Ban Xia and the other girls were all from the D-generation generation, and they had trained a lot on weekdays, so they were not afraid that they would show their flaws.
As for the servants in Zhuangzi, they are not familiar with the servants in the mansion, and they are not afraid of them doing bad things.
"Where are your hands? Why don't you spread them out?" Jin Shenling looked at the slightly delicate woman in front of him, his eyes passing over her chest.
The woman seemed to be frightened and shrank back.
Beside him, Li Chun quickly grabbed the woman's hand and spread it out.
"Please forgive me, sir. This wife is my slave's sister-in-law. She is mute and cannot hear."
Li Chun said to Jin Ginseng Ling with a smile on his face.
"Oh? Look up." He was a little suspicious. The woman was not necessarily an assassin. If she was an accomplice, it was very possible.
Li Chun hurriedly raised her sister-in-law's chin. The woman dodged a little and looked even more frightened.
Jin Shenling took a closer look at the woman, she was just ordinary looking, a little delicate.
Hearing a "cough" behind him, he was so busy that he put away his mind and looked at the hands.
Looking at it this way, there are many doubts.
"What's on these hands?" he asked Li Chun.
I saw a layer of ointment smeared on the woman's palm. It was dark and hard to see clearly.
"Sir! My sister-in-law is working in the big kitchen. Her brother fell ill a few years ago. I begged the steward to let her in. She can't hear, can't speak, and isn't very bright. Today
My son's hand was burned by the oil pan on the stove, so the slave girl applied the burn ointment to her. The slave girl brought her from the house just to show her face and ask for a reward from the master."
Gu Chengyu looked over from here and found that Li Chun was about to cry as he spoke, showing the expression that a deceased relative should have.
The corners of Gu Chengyu's mouth twitched, this was going to be an award, she could perform better than him.
The people in the big kitchen of Zhuangzi had never seen Hui'an, and they said that when working in Zhuangzi, they were afraid of showing their feet. They said that they brought the best from the house, and he brought few servants, all of whom were close to him.
Seeing that the golden ginseng collar was still a little doubtful, Li Chun said again: "Sir, do you want to take a closer look? The slave will scratch it open and let you have a look?"
Seeing this, Gu Chengyu spoke up at the right time, "What? Sir, are you interested in the cook in my house? Then I'll give it to you!"
Gu Chengyu said with a sarcastic smile on his face.
The eldest prince frowned. He also noticed that Jin Shenling seemed to pay special attention to the woman. With her beauty, it was difficult for him to catch her eye.
