Chapter 118 The Least Likely Person to Get in Touch with
Bu Wei was naturally not stupid, and he knew that their previous conversation had been heard by Ran Qingxuan, and even by Gu Yanchen.
If the light wasn't so dim, I'm afraid both people in the room would be able to see He Xun's face that was about to bleed.
Ran Qingxuan said this because he didn't want to make too many explanations later. After all, it would be disadvantageous to her whether it was done in front of others or behind their backs.
"I think you can handle this man in black, so I won't bother you any more."
Bu Wei nodded, glared at He Xun who was lying on the bed, and then spoke earnestly after closing the door.
"Now that you've heard it, don't think too much about it. She doesn't have those intentions at all. You'd better not continue to misunderstand her. This will be good for both sides."
I thought He Xun would continue to refute, but unexpectedly he just replied, "I understand."
This time, Bu Wei didn't know what to say. He shook his head and went out alone to deal with the body of the man in black.
After this incident, he realized that even if he handed the body over to the authorities, he would not be able to escape questioning, so he simply dealt with it quietly and pretended to be unaware of anything.
Ran Qingxuan returned to the room, took off his coat and lay back on the bed, then he thought about the incident carefully.
Since the man in black was able to silence He Xun, he probably already knew the whole story. If he was allowed to testify before the authorities alive, it would only confirm Dai Kun's guilt.
If Dai Kun's guilt is confirmed, Fu Fan, as his accomplice, will not be able to escape either. Once Fu Fan is convicted, it will probably not be easy to place people in to monitor him.
Not only will it arouse suspicion, it will also simply deliver clues to your doorstep.
It is expected that the people behind Fu Fan would not be so stupid as to do this, so the best way is to kill He Xun directly, so that there will be no evidence and Fu Fan can continue to stay in the team.
Even though his behavior has caused a significant impact, this group of officials may exclude him, but if the government finds him not guilty, this group of people cannot drive him away.
Ran Qingxuan felt that Bu Wei was not stupid. After the assassination incident, he would definitely think of all these twists and turns.
However, how to communicate with He Xun was not her concern. Anyway, this person staying in the team would not have much impact on them, and she and Gu Yanchen would have plenty of opportunities to deal with him.
As time went by, Ran Qingxuan felt more and more unable to sleep in bed. The crowing of roosters continued to be heard around the town, and several times she couldn't help but want to go out and investigate.
However, she had seen Gu Yanchen's skills. Seeing such a skilled martial artist with secret guards following him, she simply put her worries aside.
It was not until about five in the morning that a noise was heard at the window. Ran Qingxuan quickly stepped forward and opened the window bolt, and Gu Yanchen also jumped in with a serious face.
The first time he saw blood on the corner of his clothes, Ran Qingxuan immediately stepped forward worriedly and lifted his clothes.
"Are you injured? Or is the wound broken open?"
Gu Yanchen quickly grabbed her hand, took a step back and took off his blood-stained clothes.
"It should have been contaminated when checking Dai Kun's life or death."
Hearing him say this, Ran Qingxuan instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
"I thought that since I came here, you wouldn't go there..."
Hearing her choice of words, Gu Yanchen frowned in confusion.
"Here...did something happen?"
Ran Qingxuan quickly and briefly recounted what happened during the Chou Hour. When Gu Yanchen heard that she was facing two men in black alone, his worry was written all over his face.
"I should have left one person in the inn. If there were too many people coming..."
"Hey, don't worry about me. Don't you know my abilities? I will make sure they never come back."
With a forced smile on his lips, Gu Yanchen said, "We were about to leave, but we ran into a group of three people just as we went out. After they killed Dai Kun, we followed them all the way to the courtyard near the city gate."
"Who is the contact?"
At this point, Gu Yanchen's eyes flashed with deep disappointment and confusion.
"Prince, Qi Jing!"
Ran Qingxuan was a little stunned for a moment, because according to the records about Crown Prince Qi Jing that she had seen in the original book, he would undoubtedly become the next emperor of Northern Qi.
Moreover, in the end, the entire Gu family was killed along the way, but he was the one who brought back the bodies of the entire family for burial despite the rebuke of Emperor Mingde and everyone's opposition.
But he finally announced to the outside world that it was Emperor Mingde who did all this, which gave Emperor Mingde a good reputation.
According to the book, their relationship should be much better than that of the Second Prince Qi Ren, but why is it that the one who serves Gu Yanchen in the end is the Crown Prince Qi Jing, who will become the next emperor?
This is totally against common sense!
If Dai Kun and Fu Fan were indeed the prince's men, then why didn't they take this opportunity to kill them both? Why did they leave Fu Fan alone?
Do you think they won't be able to find out and plan to find another opportunity to strike later?
After thinking about it, Ran Qingxuan asked his doubts.
"I don't believe that Dai Kun was not instructed to leave Fu Fan behind, probably because he wanted to know my every move in real time."
Speaking of this, Gu Yanchen became even more confused.
"But why, why must we monitor them? The Gu family has been exiled and they are already prisoners. What else do you want to see?"
"Is there any grudge between you two?"
Gu Yanchen shook his head without hesitation.
"Impossible, I heard from my mother that when the queen was pregnant, she went to Yunxiao Temple to pray for a prince to consolidate her position.
My mother, who was pregnant with me at the time, also went to Yunxiao Temple to pray for blessings. When she learned that the empress's procession was coming, she went forward to pay her respects. ”
"The queen felt that she had a connection with my mother, so they traveled together back to the capital. However, on the way back to the capital, they encountered a group of bandits robbing the official road. It was at that time that the crown prince Qi Jing and I were born together.
For this reason, the emperor felt that Qi Jing and I had a real connection. Since the beginning of my elementary school years, I had been Qi Jing's study partner. Whether it was studying or learning to ride, shoot, or practice military skills, we were basically together. ”
"And even the emperor has acquiesced that I will assist Qi Jing to become the next emperor of Northern Qi in the same way my father assisted him."
After listening to his explanation, Ran Qingxuan couldn't help but get nervous, because the person who had been teaching the prince was her nominal grandfather...
Putting aside whether Shen Huai knew about what the prince had done, just considering the relationship between the two, it was really hard to justify placing someone in the team to do the bidding.
And if it was Qi Jing who arranged for Nanny Xu to monitor the Gu Mansion, then this person is really hiding very deeply.
"Did the prince reveal anything?"
"No, but I always feel that there are two groups of people instructing Dai Kun and Fu Fan, and I guess the other one is most likely the second prince Qi Ren."
Ran Qingxuan was shocked and felt that Gu Yanchen's guess was not unreasonable. After all, knowing such a big secret of someone else, it would be a good idea to kill him while he is weak, so that the secret would not be known to others.
"Now we have no idea who is behind Fu Fan. If he returns to the team after this incident, maybe I can find out who is behind this."
