Of course, these are all his guesses. If he wants to find the murderer, the concubine is the key.
According to common sense, the concubine has achieved her goal, so she was either killed by her master or escaped from the house. How could she be caught by the people in the second prince's house? This is a doubtful point.
However, this matter has little to do with Gu Chengyu, so he will naturally not interfere. The second prince's residence must be heavily guarded these days, and he will not let Ming Mo and the others take risks. Anyway, he will always get the answer in the end.
"Your Highness! This matter is too dangerous. You are so impulsive."
Peng Fang was in a state of confusion at this time. He always had some bad premonitions and was afraid that what the third prince had done would be exposed.
"What are you afraid of? Don't worry, this matter will never involve me. That concubine belongs to the eldest brother. This time, even if the eldest brother is full of words, he can't explain it clearly. I still want to push him, after all, the concubine
The more evidence that I have colluded with my eldest brother, the better, right?"
The third prince's eyes showed a fierce look, and he felt very happy in his heart.
His eldest brother would have never imagined that he would have discovered a long time ago that a concubine in the second prince's house was his eldest brother's spy.
And the spy he placed in the second prince's house could just monitor the connection between the concubine and the eldest brother. It took him a lot of effort to move his spy to the concubine's side as the eldest girl.
Look how arrogant the eldest brother is this time! The third prince was feeling proud, but he was still a little worried that the identity of the spy would be discovered.
But it is absolutely impossible to withdraw people now, otherwise it will arouse suspicion. If everyone changes the target of suspicion to that girl, it will be bad.
Just leaving the person in the second prince's house made him feel uneasy after all.
After much deliberation, he felt that only dead people would not reveal secrets. As long as Rika died, these things would completely have nothing to do with him.
"Sir! The capital has been really turbulent these past two days. I saw that the area of the Second Prince's Mansion has been sealed off. No one is allowed to enter, and no one is allowed to leave."
While Ming Yan was driving, he reported to Gu Chengyu what had happened in the Second Prince's Mansion in the past two days.
Gu Chengyu lowered the curtains on the car window. Tomorrow was the ceremony for establishing the crown prince. But the second prince hadn't woken up yet, and the emperor didn't cancel the ceremony immediately. He just said to wait, and he didn't know what the emperor's intention was.
"Go to the eldest brother's house!" Thinking of the news he heard in the Hanlin Academy during the day, Gu Chengyu was ready to go to the eldest brother's house to find out what was going on in the court in the past two days.
He was not qualified to go to court, and the emperor did not summon him, so he naturally had no way of knowing what the emperor was thinking.
Alas! Gu Chengyu sighed, the grade was still too low.
As for the second prince still unconscious, Gu Chengyu sneered at this. If it was really so dangerous, then why didn't the emperor cancel the ceremony? And the noise wouldn't be so small.
He always felt that the second prince might use his tricks this time, but he didn't know how many of them could be eliminated.
"You're here. I was about to send someone to invite you over." Yin Kun saw Gu Chengyu coming and quickly let him into the study.
"Today, many ministers in the court have jointly requested the emperor to cancel the ceremony, and I very much agree with it. The second prince is still unconscious, how can he be carried away? If it is true, as the imperial doctor said, he will not wake up for more than seven days.
, that is, even if the Great Luo Immortal comes, it will be difficult to save him. The second prince may be in trouble this time."
Yin Kun felt that the second prince's poisoning was probably not adulterated. Tomorrow is the grand ceremony, but he still hasn't woken up today. How could the second prince be so calm?
The emperor seemed to be shaken when the ministers said this today.
"Oh? What does the emperor mean? Did he agree?" Gu Chengyu didn't care about anything else. He only cared about the emperor's attitude.
"No, but the emperor hesitated and gave a deadline. If the second prince has not woken up tomorrow at Mao Shi, the ceremony of establishing the crown prince will be canceled and will be discussed later."
"That is to say, if there is any action, it must be completed tonight. After tonight, everything is a foregone conclusion." Gu Chengyu thought for a moment and then said.
Gu Chengyu wanted to go to the second prince's house to explore, but then he gave up the idea.
Nowadays, there are many masters in the second prince's house. Even though he has great martial arts and excellent light skills, he does not dare to act rashly.
You need to know that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world. Just because you haven't met an opponent yet, you can't assume that no one in the world can compare with him.
This is a conceited idea, and it is a life-threatening idea.
The answer will be revealed tomorrow. It is better to stay in the house obediently today. Otherwise, he will be asking for trouble.
"Do you think the second prince is going to make a big move this time?" Yin Kun's eyes narrowed slightly. Can the second prince really be so calm?
If this is the case, then the emperor's choice of the second prince can be considered to be very discerning.
"I said before that this was my guess, how can I be sure? Senior brother, please stay in the house tonight and don't act rashly, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences!"
Gu Chengyu joked with a smile.
Yin Kun was shocked. He looked into Gu Chengyu's smiling eyes and felt his face tighten.
Did the junior brother say this intentionally or unintentionally?
Glancing at Yin Kun's doubtful eyes, Gu Chengyu smiled and did not explain anything.
He has already reminded his senior brother, hoping that he would not be blinded by temporary gains.
"Indeed! We will see the results tomorrow. Let's wait and see what happens." Yin Kun breathed a sigh of relief. No matter whether Gu Chengyu noticed anything or not, he should not have such thoughts.
The news he got from elsewhere was that the second prince was dying and would not survive tonight, so the emperor set the deadline for tomorrow morning.
Yin Kun still wants to take a further step in the officialdom, but with his ability, it is already very difficult to advance to a higher level before becoming an official.
If we don't seize this opportunity and choose a wise leader, then when a new emperor ascends the throne, he may have to abdicate in favor of someone else.
When he went to court every day, he saw the deep groove between the emperor's eyebrows. These days, the second prince was in danger, and the emperor's back was bent a little more. It seemed that the emperor was also worried.
Some of the ministers in the second prince's lineage could no longer hold back and were ready to take action.
All signs indicate that the second prince is dying soon, and he may not survive these two days.
But he believed in Gu Chengyu and was willing to block it!
Over the past few days, he had watched Gu Chengyu's growth. When had this junior fellow apprentice missed a business trip?
Thinking of this, Yin Kun also felt that he was indeed too hasty before.
Although wealth can be found in danger, it still depends on whether the timing is right.
No! Why was he so eager before? This is completely inconsistent with his character!
Yin Kun couldn't help but think of that person, and when he thought about it more carefully, he realized that he had been led by others before. But he himself didn't even notice it, and he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
