Chapter 40 The Prince of the Marquisate who died in the battle is back 33
He did not answer the question immediately, but talked about something else, "When you saved me that day, you must have seen two traitorous servants. I wonder if you saw what they took from me?"
"Yes, when I went over there, I saw two men dressed as guards holding a jade pendant and standing up, then they started hacking at each other. I thought they were killing each other because of a lopsided division of the spoils, but after hacking at each other a few times, they walked away covered in blood.
I came out of my hiding place after they walked away, and saw a bloody mass of people, about 10 to 20 of them. I recognized the prince, so I bravely stepped forward to take a look, and found that you were the only one with a weak pulse, and the others were already dead. "
Xiao Yun nodded and admitted it immediately. She also knew that these things could not be concealed for long. After all, the fact that she appeared there and saved King Ping was an obvious problem.
She was also waiting for the other party to ask. She couldn't just take the initiative to say that she was there in advance. The other party might suspect that she was in cahoots with those people.
Of course, even if she didn't say it actively, the other party might not necessarily not be suspicious. However, by now the other party should have already investigated it. Her going to Huiling Temple was indeed a coincidence and not premeditated.
“It seems that I did not wrongly accuse them. Those two were indeed my guards. I just don’t know who bribed them to betray me.
I caught them before in Huiling Temple, but I didn't find my jade pendant on them. After several days of torture, I only found out that they were King Qi's men, and they were arranged by my side to wait for an opportunity to act at any time.
The order they received this time was to cooperate in the assassination of me. They didn't know the reason, but they just followed orders. They never admitted that they had taken the jade pendant.
All possible tortures have been used, but the two have not changed their statements. Not to mention that my subordinates who were interrogating them had become suspicious, I almost thought that I had guessed wrong.
I actually came here to try my luck, thinking that maybe you had seen it before, but I didn't expect it to be true.
Not only that, what you just said also reminded me that the people who attacked me might not be from the court, and might not be from Zhongyun. It is also possible that they are spies from other countries who want to stir up civil strife in Zhongyun and reap the benefits.
I'm sure everyone knows that I like to travel everywhere. Three years ago, I accidentally ran into Yu Jiangping, the confidant of King Ximing, in Yuncheng.
Others may not recognize him, but I have seen him when King Ximing sent envoys to congratulate the current emperor at his coronation ceremony. He was one of the envoys, and King Qi and I were responsible for receiving them at that time. I accidentally discovered that King He, who led the team, was a little afraid of him, so I had a deep impression of this man.
Three years ago, the two countries tore up the treaty and were at war. When I saw each other, my first thought was that he had come in person to spy on military intelligence, so I wanted to capture him. However, there were many civilians on the street at that time, and I had few people with me, so he took the opportunity to escape.
I was traveling incognito, without many people with me, and it was not convenient to conduct a large-scale search, so I asked someone to report anonymously to the local Yuncheng garrison.
We even stayed there for a while, but unfortunately we didn't catch him in the end and he escaped.
Later, I heard that the son of Pingxi Hou was missing. At that time, I also suspected that Yu Jiangping had taken people to Yuncheng to hunt down Chu Hongyi. After all, the timing was too coincidental.
I also sent people to look for him secretly. After all, Chu Hongyi is a soldier of Zhongyun. I thought that if I met him, I could help him, even if it was just to collect the body.
Later, we arranged for people to stay in Yuncheng just in case, but we didn't expect Chu Hongyi to have lost his memory and had been staying in a remote village. So I actually only knew that Chu Hongyi was still alive one step earlier than you.
Now that you said that Lu Jiaojiao and her daughter are suspicious, I have some guesses, but I have to send someone to investigate to confirm it."
Xiao Yun listened quietly, and waited until he finished speaking before saying, "Your Highness, do you suspect that Lu Jiaojiao has a relationship with Ximing Kingdom? But Lu Yuan is the General of Pingxi, isn't that suspicious too?"
Could it be that the Ximing Kingdom deliberately withdrew its troops and let Lu Yuan become the general stationed there? If so, then the purpose is very big! "
Qi Yun: "What the young lady said is not impossible, but the result of my people's investigation is that Lu Yuan does not value this legitimate daughter. Apart from sending her some silver regularly since she was a child, he has hardly taken care of her.
Moreover, Lu Yuan is indeed brave and good at fighting, and is a fierce general. Although he relies on the Yue family, he is also capable on his own. Moreover, his parents and family members all died at the hands of the soldiers of the Ximing Kingdom, so it is unlikely that he would cooperate with the enemy. Therefore, I am more inclined to believe that there is something wrong with Lu Jiaojiao's in-laws.
Even if they are not related, he is still Lu Jiaojiao's biological father, and he has become a general. As her in-laws, Lu Yuan should give her a lot of money, and it should not be difficult to arrange a good place for her to live. It is better than staying in that remote place. Why does she stay there?
Unless it is something that must be guarded, or it is not to be shown to others, it is easier to do something there in hiding."
Although this makes sense, Xiao Yun couldn't help but refute: "Is it possible that Lu Yuan was specially trained by Ximing Country? It's not uncommon for spies to be trained from a young age and eventually sit in a high position. It's easy to arrange an identity for him. He usually doesn't move in order to stay at the critical moment."
