The culprit turned out to be the old King Qin's son Chu Yang!

This answer is unexpected.

Chu Ning had suspected the old King of Qin, Yun Jianye, Di Wenyao, Jia Yu, and even the fifteenth, sixteenth, and seventeenth princes.

But the only person he never doubted was Chu Yang!

Because this person's presence is too low.

Above him is the old Prince Qin, a member of the royal family, who is of the middle generation. Although he is a prince, he is still far away from the throne.

From the very beginning, this person had never entered Chu Ning's eyes.

In other words, Chu Ning didn't take such a person seriously at all.

But it was this person who instigated King Anding's rebellion, played tricks on him and the emperor, and killed the descendants of the previous royal family.

Chu Ning felt very uncomfortable after being hit hard by someone he never took seriously.

But it also gave him a reminder.

It is often those who are not noticed by him who will deal him a fatal blow.

Although he had experienced many ups and downs, he had never thought that he would be fooled by such a person.

It was the struggles over the years that made him look down on people like Chu Yang, and it was also the arrogance in his heart that made him lose the most basic vigilance.

He will not make the same mistake again in the future.

Of course, what he wanted to know most now was whether the old King of Qin was involved in this matter.

After all, he is the most senior person among the royal family members, and he is also in charge of the Zongzheng Temple.

If the old King of Qin was also involved in this matter, it would mean that the entire royal family was dissatisfied with him.

Therefore, before killing Chu Yang, he must ask clearly.

Chu Yang seemed to have guessed that Chu Ning would ask this question, and a hint of anger appeared on his thin face.

"Humph, if father had been involved in this matter, you would have died in the Qin Palace!"

Chu Yang seemed unwilling to give up. He stared at Chu Ning and said coldly, "Do you know that when King Anding and you are fighting, I can send people to help King Anding kill you!"

"Although you have asked the emperor to send the imperial guards for support, my people can definitely join forces with King Anding's people to kill you before the imperial guards arrive!"

At this point, Chu Yang's face flushed with excitement, and he suddenly roared:

"But it is because of his obstruction that I am unable to arrange these people in the palace in advance!"

"Although these people are ostensibly the transport team of the Prince Qin's Palace, my father just won't agree!"

After hearing these words, Chu Ning finally understood what was going on.

No wonder the Jinyiwei and the Shadow Guards couldn't find these cavalrymen. It turned out that they were the transport team under the Qin Palace.

The Qin Palace also has industries. Since it has industries, it needs transportation, and transportation requires horses.

With the prestige of the old King of Qin, if he could get more horses and recruit more people to protect the transported goods, the civil and military officials in the court would naturally not interfere too much.

Of course, the Jinyiwei and Yingwei would never have thought that Chu Yang took advantage of this and secretly trained these people into cavalry.

It's normal for transport teams to ride horses, right?

It's normal for the transport team members to know some martial arts to protect the transported materials, right?

The old King Qin has a large industry, so it is normal for him to recruit more people and buy more horses, right?

All the normal things combined together become abnormal!

"You really are calculating!"

Chu Ning stared at Chu Yang coldly: "I guess it was you who arranged for Chu Xiao to be assassinated, right?"

Chu Yang suddenly smiled proudly: "Of course, if it doesn't exacerbate your conflict, you wouldn't be so quick to fight."

"Of course, it is not easy to make this happen. I first persuaded Dingjun Hou Chu Zan to promise to divide the kingdom equally after the success."

It turned out that Chu Zan was the insider.

No wonder King Anding acted so rashly, he must have been instigated by Chu Zan.

However, since Chu Zan was an insider, the person who shot Chu Xiao with an arrow is worth pondering.

Chu Ning narrowed his eyes, a strange look flashed across his eyes, and he blurted out:

"The so-called assassin is actually Chu Zan, right?"

Chu Yang was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter: "Hahahaha, you are really smart. You can even guess this."

"Yes, it was Chu Zan who shot his brother with an arrow that night!"

"Otherwise, with the protection of King Anding, how could outsiders easily get in? Even if they got in, how could they escape after they succeeded?"

"Only someone inside the Anding Palace can easily shoot an arrow from the eaves and return to his own room immediately after shooting the arrow."

At this point, the truth came to light.

Even Feng Mulan, who had been listening for a long time, suddenly understood: "So that's how it is. All this was done by you and Chu Zan."

"You are really cunning. You actually came up with such a sinister plan, and even let Chu Zan shoot his own brother with an arrow for this."

"Isn't he afraid that the arrow will really kill Chu Xiao?"

He is her own brother, Feng Mulan couldn't understand that at all.

What kind of person would dare to shoot his own brother with an arrow?

But Chu Yang laughed when he heard this: "Shoot him? Wouldn't it be better to shoot him?"

"Your Highness may not know this yet, but in our plan, Chu Xiao is going to be shot to death!"

"Only in this way can we anger King Anding and make him lead his troops to fight the Crown Prince, so that Chu Zan and I can reap the benefits!"

Feng Mulan rolled her eyes, swung the heavy sword in her hand, and was ready to ride her horse forward to chop the man to death.

But Chu Ning knew Feng Mulan's character very well, so he stretched out his hand to stop her and said calmly: "I haven't finished asking."

Feng Mulan pouted: "It's a deal, leave this thing to me later!"

She had already made up her mind to cut such a vicious person into pieces!

Chu Ning nodded slightly, then turned to look at Chu Yang, frowned and said: "You and the old King Qin live under the same roof. You have done so many things, don't you think he doesn't know?"

He still didn't believe that the old King of Qin had nothing to do with this matter.

Unexpectedly, Chu Yang burst into laughter when he heard this: "Hahahaha, Chu Ning, you are cruel, you are really cruel!"

"You clearly want to use this incident to take down my father and take away his power."

"Although you look harmless, you are crueler than anyone else when you are cruel!"

"But unfortunately, my father is indeed unaware of this matter because he is old. I am the one who handles all the affairs in the palace!"

After saying that, he suddenly looked at Feng Mulan and smiled strangely: "My Lady Concubine wants to kill me? It's a pity that you don't have this chance."

After he finished speaking, a look of determination flashed across his eyes, and then he suddenly took out a pill and swallowed it.

"Oh no, he's taking poison!" Feng Mulan was furious and rushed over on her horse. The surrounding Youzhou soldiers also rushed over.

But when they dealt with the remaining dozen or so black knights, Chu Yang had already fallen off his horse.

Feng Mulan stepped forward and turned the body over, only to find that the man was bleeding from all seven orifices, his entire face was swollen and purple, and his original appearance could not be seen at all.

"Damn this guy!" Feng Mulan was furious and raised her sword to chop him down.

But Chu Ning frowned and said, "Wait, I still have a use for this man's body if I keep it!"

"Leave one person to clean up the battlefield, and the rest of you take this man's body and follow me to the Prince of Qin's Palace."

He wants to go find the old King Qin!
