Chapter 117: The Crown Princess is making trouble? The leader opens the door and you get in the car
What's the difference?
In the original novel, there is not much description of the third prince Wen Ziduan. Just a few sentences are enough to vividly describe the "Sea King".
"People also say that He Zhaojun is arrogant and domineering, and looks down on everyone, but you are not like that." Shao Shang imitated He Zhaojun and touched her head.
He Zhaojun remained silent, but in fact, she was already wavering. She knew that she was not without affection for Wen Ziduan. When she was assassinated that day, everything she did was not entirely out of a subject's protection for the future king.
"I know. Now I am hoping that he can explain to me and tell me the truth, but I am also afraid that what he says is not what I want to hear..." He Zhaojun held her head in frustration.
Shao Shang felt the same way: "What's wrong with these guys? They keep women guessing all day long. Is it so hard to say a few more words?"
He Zhaojun sighed, "But the answer will soon be revealed. Although the assassins that day were all dead and had already committed suicide by poisoning when they were caught, there will always be someone who can find out something."
"The people in my escort agency have traveled extensively and have seen a lot. They should have a clear idea of the identities of these people."
He Zhaojun finished her meal in a few mouthfuls, then frowned as she drank the bowl of yellow medicine. She got up from the bed and saw Wen Zi standing upright at the door of the side hall, having listened for an unknown amount of time.
"Third Prince, do you have anything to say to me?" He Zhaojun pulled Shao Shang and stood in the hall, and they both looked at Wen Ziduan.
Wen Ziduan showed a hint of hesitation, and finally said: "If I tell you, will you believe it?"
"Of course! I believe everything you say, no matter what it is." He Zhaojun said it firmly. She would rather die quickly than become a crown princess in the midst of speculation and conjecture.
Whether it was the truth behind his sudden proposal of marriage or the details of the assassination, she wanted to know everything!
Before Wen Ziduan could say anything, Old Bai announced that Concubine Yue, Ling Buyi, the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess and others had arrived almost at the same time. The two looked at each other and both sensed something unusual.
He Zhaojun shook her head. It looked like today was a very busy day. The Third Prince had been assassinated, and all the key people in the palace had gathered in her small side hall.
Concubine Yue slowly sat down and looked at the three pillars of the court and their new wives. She immediately became interested: "Everyone, sit down and tell me slowly. What are your opinions on Sanlang's assassination? Let me hear them too. I will fulfill my responsibility as a mother."
Ling Buyi sat down and looked at Cheng Shaoshang across from him. After a while, he said, "Among the weapons used by the assassins, only a few arrows and long swords are ordnance. The rest are of unknown origin and are just ordinary weapons."
"So, I suspect they secretly collected the arrows when they encountered our army, hoping to confuse the investigation."
He Zhaojun nodded, agreeing with the result. Shao Shang, however, was puzzled. "Misdirection? Then who are they trying to frame?"
Wen Ziduan replied, "Of course it's the Xuan family. I previously stationed a general at the other courtyard. His family had received a large sum of money from the Crown Prince, enough to pay off all their debts. It's hard not to be suspicious."
The Crown Princess interrupted, "His Royal Highness is kindhearted and only gave alms out of pity for him. Please stop slandering him."
He Zhaojun simply ignored the Crown Princess' words. After all, since it was a false accusation and frame-up, the Crown Prince as an interference factor had been ruled out. When she said this, it seemed that she was trying to cover up the truth and was really stupid.
"My men have carefully checked all the bodies..." He Zhaojun had just said this when she was interrupted by the Crown Princess.
"What corpse?! How can you say that?"
