Chen Yuan kept thinking about the clues he found in his mind, walking in the palace of Concubine Shu, he asked casually:

"How many princes have been to the palace recently?"

"It's still the same as usual, I will come every few days, except for the Fourth Highness."

"Fourth Highness."

Chen Yuan's footsteps were suddenly suffocated. Before that, he was still thinking about which prince was the most likely, but a word from Eunuch Zhao suddenly gave him a flash of inspiration.

He had heard of the fact that Sima Ke was impeached by Guo Peng for colluding with Dongying warriors before, and then imprisoned in the palace by Jingtai to meditate.

It's just that I haven't paid much attention to it.

Thinking about it now...it seems...there are quite a few possibilities.

Leaving aside the other princes, it seems reasonable just to consider that the fourth prince is the murderer. He was punished by Jingtai for copying Taoist scriptures, and it is normal for him to smell of dragon fragrance ink.

In itself, the dragon is strong and the tiger is strong, which is the time when the energy and blood are just beginning.

And...he remembered that the attic was very close to Chunhua Palace...

Adding all these things together, the doubts on Sima Ke's body became bigger and bigger.

Although this is Chen Yuan's reasoning and conjecture, it is not difficult to find more evidence, as long as the court lady's confession is known,

It's not a day or two for Concubine Shu to enjoy the moon.

As long as you connect the time when Sima Ke entered the palace with it, you will naturally be able to associate it.

And if Concubine Shu is dissected to take out the dead baby in her womb and compare it with Sima Ke, this is ironclad evidence!

Sima Ke, Sima Ke.

It's not that I'm trying to harm you, it's all your own courting for death.

There was a light in Chen Yuan's eyes.

As long as the evidence is conclusive, Chen Yuan can completely crucify Sima Ke!

Since then, he has been knocked out of the mundane world. It is conceivable how serious it will be if Jingtai finds out that Lao Tzu was cuckolded by his son.

Capital crimes are extremely possible!

And the enmity between him and Sima Ke will be completely over.

Chen Yuan wanted to kill this guy for a long time, but it was difficult to do it because of his identity. After all, he was the prince of the dynasty, and the blood of Jingtai flowed.

But right now, this identity just killed him.

"Has Commander Chen found the murderer?" Eunuch Zhao suddenly stepped forward and asked in a low voice.

There was light in Chen Yuan's eyes, and he was about to tell Eunuch Zhao to check the time of Sima Ke's entry into the palace, but when he was about to say it, he suddenly closed his mouth.

He suddenly thought of what Jingtai told him before, keep quiet and don't let outsiders know.

If he uttered Sima Ke's name, wouldn't it be obvious that Concubine Shu's death was attributed to Sima Ke? As long as the investigation continues,

The scandal that the prince cuckolded the emperor will spread throughout the capital.

Youyou's mouth is unstoppable.

But if he didn't say anything, wouldn't it mean that he was ineffective?

When Chen Yuan was thinking about whether to continue to investigate Sima Ke, he suddenly thought deeply about the cause of Concubine Shu's death. I am afraid that as long as the IQ is normal, he can know that it is a murder or a mistake.

So……

Why don't these people investigate carefully?

These clues seem to be meticulous, but if they are really investigated carefully, they will definitely be able to find out these clues, and then deduce them to Sima Ke.

Moreover, would it be true that no one would have noticed that Concubine Shu was pregnant?

As long as the cultivation base is successful, it is easy to detect this.

But they pretended not to know, and only went to torture the two maids. It really didn't look like what normal people could do. Obviously...someone in the palace had already thought of this, but they didn't want to intervene.

Even thinking about it again, maybe the old eunuch next to Chen Yuan knew that this matter was related to Sima Ke, but he was just pretending to be stupid on purpose to induce him to think of Sima Ke.

and also,

Did someone cause this?

Planting on Sima Ke?

Chen Yuan cursed secretly, why did so many things happen in this association.

Moreover, what is Jingtai's intention?

Is it really just to find out the cause of Concubine Shu's death?

Asking him to investigate, is it just not wanting to alarm too many people?

"Perhaps...it's not that simple, they are all using him as a pawn in the game?"

This is a deeper thought.

"I haven't found it yet, but what Eunuch Zhao means, it seems that he has already thought of something?" Chen Yuan turned his eyes and asked lightly.

Eunuch Zhao smiled:

"The old slave is stupid, how could he think of these things."

"This case is not that complicated, but it needs to be investigated carefully, um... take me to the Chunhua Palace first to meet the imperial concubine."

Apart from other things, presumably, the imperial concubine should not want this matter to be known by His Majesty, right?

Chapter 448 Do you dare to touch the emperor's woman?

When Chen Yuan thought that the cause of Concubine Shu's death could not be revealed publicly, he had already started to think about other things.

Then do your best to achieve your goals.

As for the task, he felt that as long as he hinted in place, Jingtai would naturally know in his heart that there was no penalty imposed anyway, at most it was just a sentence of ineffectiveness.

This is better than poking this matter out...

He didn't want to be unconventional, he would rather make himself pay the price than put Sima Ke to death. He didn't have the qualifications to let Chen Yuan accompany him to die together.

Besides, now that the big event is approaching, he doesn't want to make such fools again.

"What is Commander Chen doing with the imperial concubine?"

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of others all focused on him.

Isn't it necessary to investigate the cause of Concubine Shu's death?

Why did you suddenly get involved with the imperial concubine?

"The place where Concubine Shu fell from the building is not far from Chunhua Palace, maybe I can get some news from Concubine Gui." Chen Yuan said lightly.

"This……"

The old eunuch seemed a little hesitant, but Chen Yuan pressured him with this kind of matter, and he couldn't say anything to refute, so he could only nod his head.

However, Chen Yuan led the people straight towards Chunhua Palace, and the two previous maids were arrested again. It is foreseeable that their fate may not be very good.

It is estimated that Jingtai will not make such a scandal public, and they are the scapegoats on the surface.

This is not what Chen Yuan can do. The first thing he has to do is to protect himself. It is impossible to take risks for the truth, which is not in line with his character.

After some briefings, Chen Yuan saw Yang Guifei again.

She still had a graceful and luxurious posture, staring at Chen Yuan calmly, as if she had forgotten all the previous hatred, and said in a concentrated voice:

"If Commander Chen doesn't investigate the cause of Concubine Shu's sister's death, why come to my Chunhua Palace?"

She was not polite, and went straight to the point.

The main thing is that there is really no good manners.

Before, Chen Yuan disrespected her and contradicted her one after another.

She even abolished her own younger brother with her own hands, and now she has been driven to the frontier. She will never be able to return to the capital in this life. It is because of him that her son was reprimanded by the emperor.

Punishment for copying scriptures, meditation in the palace.

With such a variety of things, how to greet each other politely?

Chen Yuan didn't think there was anything wrong with being straight to the point. He wasn't good at or liked playing machine guns, so he said directly:

"I came here to investigate the cause of Concubine Shu's death."

"It's a joke, my Chunhua Palace is not the Palace of Concubine Shu, so how can I have anything to do with Concubine Shu's sister?" Concubine Yang sneered, with an unhappy expression on her face, and continued:

"If Commander Chen wants to frame him because of his previous hatred, he has found the wrong person."

Chen Yuan was unmoved, looked around the Chunhua Palace, and said lightly:

"really?"

"Of course it's true."

"Weichen suggested that the empress should retreat from everyone, lest any word spread out."

"Oh, what can I say?"

Seeing that the other party still didn't see the rabbit or scatter the eagle, Chen Yuan said softly:

"It's about His Royal Highness."

When Concubine Yang heard this sentence, her eyes flashed a little imperceptible unnaturalness, she stared closely at Chen Yuan, and Chen Yuan also stared at Concubine Yang with a faint smile.

The two stalemate for a moment, and finally Concubine Yang looked away first, took a deep breath, and told the two maids beside her:

"Go and wait outside the door. I have something important to ask Commander Chen."

"Yes."

"Yes."

Although according to the usual practice, concubines in the harem cannot share the same room with foreign ministers, but in the current scene, the two court ladies dare not say anything more.

Quickly bowed and backed out.

However, they did not dare to go far, and stood quietly outside the palace, as long as there was any movement, they would hear it immediately, but to be on the safe side, Chen Yuan still waved his hand to cover the inside of Chunhua Palace.

"What do you want to say?"

Yang Guifei asked lightly.

Compared to before, her skill in nourishing qi seems to have improved a lot. I don't know if this is the nature, or if she knows that Chen Yuan is a stubborn person, she won't give her much face, so she naturally becomes more polite.

"I just said it, it's about the death of the Fourth Prince and Concubine Shu."

"Chen Yuan, don't make mistakes. How dare you frame such a rebellious thing?" Yang Guifei stared at Chen Yuan.

"Framed?" Chen Yuan shook his head and let out a laugh:

"Chen is a great Jin Zhongliang, how dare he commit the crime of framing the prince?"

"Then what are you talking about?"

"Everything is based on evidence. What I say is naturally based on evidence. To be honest, all doubts point to His Highness the Fourth Highness. It was he who accidentally killed Concubine Shu."

"Chen Yuan, do you really think that I dare not deal with you?"

"Does the imperial concubine really want to do this? If that's the case, come over there, just right, and let everyone in the harem know what scandalous things the Fourth Highness has done."

"you……"

Concubine Yang glared at Chen Yuan.

But he walked slowly in front of Concubine Yang, and said lightly:

"Concubine Shu died last night. She was pushed into the pool below, and at the same time quietly blinded the five senses of the two maids below.

It wasn't until Haishi that something was wrong, but at this time, the murderer had already left the scene, no... not necessarily, the murderer might be watching the commotion in the Chunhua Palace not far away. "

"This is the evidence you said, is it nonsense?" Concubine Yang sneered.

Chen Yuan smiled, not annoyed, and continued:

"That's not the evidence that day. Chen just let the imperial concubine know about it. As for the real facts, do you want to hear it?"

"Just say it."
