Pampering the outside room alone? I entered the East Palace to pass on the sick and weak prince

Chapter 231 Token

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly saw Yan Zhi running over in a hurry.

"It's not good, Your Highness, it's not good!"

"what happened again!?"

"Yes... Lord Du of Dali Temple is here with his people!"

"Du Quan? What is he here for?"

Murong Yu's mind, which was originally overwhelmed by anger, instantly calmed down a bit.

Du Quan is Murong Heng's man. If he comes here now, nothing good will happen.

Yan Zhi shook his head: "I don't know, I don't know. It's just that Master Du said that the case should be handled impartially. If he is not allowed to enter, he can only force his way into the house..."

One by one, did they take him as the prince seriously?

"Let him in."

Murong Yu looked at Shen Ruoxi and Shen Yue in front of him with a gloomy face: "I want to see how you collude to deal with me!?"

"Against you?"

Shen Ruoxi seemed to have heard something funny: "You are not worthy of us spending so much effort to deal with you. If you want to know why we gathered in your house, you might as well ask your sweetheart."

Hearing this, Murong Yu subconsciously looked at Ning Lanxue on the ground.

She knelt straight.

"I do not know anything."

Seeing her say this, Murong Yu also gained some confidence.

Du Quan wore a blue official uniform and led a group of people into the backyard.

He glanced at a few people.

"The Major General is here too?"

Shen Yue nodded: "Master Du."

Du Quan nodded, and then cupped his hands towards Shen Ruoxi.

"Princess, are you okay?"

"I am not injured. Master Du, please handle the case first."

Shen Ruoxi's expression was indifferent, but there was an indescribable dignity.

Du Quan nodded immediately, and then looked towards Murong Yu: "Fourth Prince, I have received news that the Crown Princess was assassinated by a group of people tonight, which was very dangerous. Fortunately, His Highness secretly sent additional personnel to protect the Crown Princess, so he did not give in. The thief succeeded."

Hearing this, Murong Yu glanced at Shen Ruoxi suspiciously.

Was she really assassinated?

Ah.

Murong Heng had many enemies, so it was normal for her to be remembered.

Live it!

"Since the Crown Princess has been assassinated, all you have to do is investigate the case. Why did you break into my house? This matter has nothing to do with me!"

"The officer is investigating the case."

Du Quan stared at Murong Yu with cold eyes, making him panic.

"Du Quan, what do you mean by this? Do you think it was me who did this to the Crown Princess?"

"To be honest, Fourth Prince, we just checked the identities of those assassins. They are all dead soldiers, and...we found that they are related to you. We found this from their bodies."

Du Quan reached out and threw a bunch of things over.

Murong Yu took it and glanced at it, almost fainting.

This is the money from his mansion, with the seal of his mansion on it.

"This...this is impossible!"

After a brief moment of dizziness, Murong Yu suddenly spoke out.

He did secretly raise a group of dead warriors, but the money he gave them was never taken from the monthly salary distributed by the palace.

If the princes hold official positions, they will have corresponding salaries.

If you don't have an official position, you still have a monthly routine. These monthly routines are issued by the palace and will be stamped with the corresponding seal.

No matter how careless he is, he will never give this money to those dead soldiers!

But now, the money has indeed appeared in Du Quan's hands.

"Master Du, there must be a mistake somewhere. It's impossible..."

"Does the fourth prince think that the official is framing you?"

Du Quan's voice was cold: "To be honest, Fourth Prince, my subordinates have actually found out that you are privately cultivating dead soldiers. Is the owner of Longyue Tower the one who selected these dead soldiers for you?"

Murong Yu's face turned pale.

Du Quan spoke slowly.

"Fourth Prince, you should know very well that if a prince cultivates martial arts without authorization, he would commit a serious crime. And you not only cultivate dead soldiers, but also let your people assassinate the Crown Princess. This... is a capital crime."

"I already told you that the matter of the Crown Princess has nothing to do with me, why don't you slander me!?"

Murong Yu roared angrily.

His mind was numb.

The prince cultivates military force privately, as long as it does not threaten the imperial power, then this matter can be big or small.

But assassinating the Crown Princess...

But a capital crime!

He must not take the blame!

Murong Yu frowned: "I don't know anything about tonight. The assassination of the Crown Princess has nothing to do with me. Someone must have framed me!"

Shen Yue sneered.

"Then tell me, Fourth Prince, who framed you?"

Murong Yu didn't say a word, but stared at several people with a pair of resentful eyes.

Who framed him?

Naturally, they colluded to take the blame for him!

Shen Ruoxi turned to look at Du Quan.

"Master Du, I heard that if these dead warriors need to be mobilized, they need tokens. Sir, you might as well search the fourth prince's mansion to see if there are any tokens?"

Du Quan handed over.

"The princess is right."

As he spoke, he waved his hand to the person behind him: "Search for me!"

The crowd dispersed, broke into various rooms, and began searching.

Murong Yu just wanted to stop him when he saw Du Quan said.

"Fourth Prince, now I have evidence. The assassination of the Crown Princess is not a trivial matter. If the Fourth Prince is not worthy of the crime, then the official can only take tough measures. Please don't make things difficult for the Fourth Prince."

He had good reasons and Murong Yu had no choice but to give up.

But he still couldn't help it.

"I do have someone in Longyue Tower, but what happened tonight has absolutely nothing to do with me!"

He knew that he could no longer defend the matter of the dead soldiers.

Even if he was convicted of this matter, it would not be too serious. What he cared about was the assassination of Shen Ruoxi.

Those dead soldiers were his people, and they were holding the money from his house... No matter how you looked at it, there was no way he could escape from this.

Murong Yu comforted himself in his heart.

Nothing will happen. My father is wise and powerful. He will never let others accuse him unjustly... There will be no problem.

He was feeling uneasy when he suddenly saw several people coming over and offering their hands to Du Quan.

"Master Du, no relevant token was found in the fourth prince's house."

Hearing this, Murong Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Then I heard him say again.

"But we found this in the main house of Lanyuan."

After all, there was a token on the ground.

The black token has a special pattern on it, and underneath, there is his private seal.

It was the token he used to dispatch the dead soldiers!

Murong Yu's pupils dilated slightly, and he couldn't believe what he heard.

Lanyuan......

Found it from Lanyuan! ! ?

He turned his head suddenly and looked at Ning Lanxue, who was kneeling on the ground, with disbelief in his eyes.

Ning Lanxue knelt on the ground, never raising her head. In a corner where others could not see, she bit her lip slightly, her eyes dim and unclear.

Shen Ruoxi took the token and turned it around in her hands.

Then he looked at Ning Lanxue on the ground with a half-smile.

"Ning Lanxue, it's you again."
