    Chapter 21 Dead Soldier

    The cold moon hangs high.

    After saying goodbye to Sun Simiao and walking on the path in the backyard, Li Zhen was thoughtful.

    This time, we must get to the bottom of things and never let go of the mastermind!

    At this time, two guards hurriedly ran from a distance and reported to Li Zhen what had just happened during the autopsy.

    The throat of the corpse was black, showing signs of poisoning, but the poison only entered part of the esophagus, and the rest was intact.

    The conclusion is that after the cook was killed, he forcibly injected poison into his body to make it look like he committed suicide by taking poison.

    ¡°Furthermore, Wu Zuo found a long nail in the cook¡¯s hair. This long nail was the real murder weapon of the cook.

    ¡°Obviously, the cook was killed by someone who stabbed him into the brain with a spike, and then fed him poison. The murderer wanted to make it look like the cook had committed suicide out of fear of crime.

    The human skull is extremely hard, and being able to pierce a spike into the skull instantly is definitely done by a master.

    Li Zhen felt a little uncomfortable when she thought that there might be a powerful assassin hiding in her house.

    He immediately ordered Xue Rengui to lead people to find out who the assassin was within three days.

    Xue Rengui immediately gathered all the princes together and investigated them one by one.

    The sun was three high, Xue Rengui's eyes were red, but he still couldn't find any clues.

    Li Zhen called Xue Rengui over and whispered a few words. Xue Rengui's eyes lit up and he immediately said that the murderer left a right palm print on the cook's body.

    Everyone in the mansion, including all servants and maids, must have their palm prints compared.

    Each person is given a piece of white paper and puts the print of his right hand on the white paper.  If it matches the palm print on the cook's body, he is the murderer.

    Each of the servants and maids was given a piece of white paper, dipped their right palms in ink, pressed their palm prints, handed the paper over themselves, and then left.

    The entire process is unsupervised.

    After everyone handed over the white paper with their palm prints printed on it, a sneer appeared on Xue Rengui's lips.

    Among these palm prints, he found a left hand print.

    "Obviously, the murderer among the servants had a guilty conscience and wanted to get away with it, so he pressed the palm print with his left hand.

    Xue Rengui has determined that the murderer is among these servants and maids!

    "Come here, everyone presses their fingerprints again. This time, press both palms!"

    This time, everyone has to write their name on the paper. Those who can't write will have the clerk do it for them, and everyone gathers together to supervise each other.

    After a while, dozens of pieces of white paper were handed over, and Xue Rengui took out the white paper with the left palm print on it and compared them one by one.

    After a while, Xue Rengui looked at a servant named Yang San.

    Yang San was sweating profusely at this time. He did not remember leaving any palm prints on the body, but out of guilty conscience, he thought no one would notice, so he pressed the left palm print.

    At this time, seeing his traces exposed, Yang San jumped up, flicked his wrist towards Li Zhen, and two steel nails attacked Li Zhen.

    "Cang!"

    The sound of gold and iron clashing sounded. Xue Rengui descended to earth like a god from heaven and stood in front of Li Zhen. The halberd in his hand knocked Yang San's steel nail away.

    "It's really you!"

    The crowd dispersed in a hurry, and Xue Rengui stabbed Yang San with a halberd.

    This stab was as fast as lightning, and Yang San could not avoid it.

    The next moment, Xue Rengui changed his stabbing to slapping, and hit Yang San hard with his halberd.

    Poof!

    Yang San spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground with a plop.

    "Take it!"

    The tip of Xue Rengui's halberd was pointed at Yang San. Several guards swarmed up and tied Yang San up.

    Throughout the whole process, Li Zhen didn¡¯t move at all, not even blinking.

    Xue Rengui applauded secretly, admiring him in his heart: Your Majesty is really a general, and his courage is extraordinary.

    However, what he didn't know was that Li Zhen broke into a cold sweat.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? I didn't even react. If it weren't for Xue Rengui, I would have died today.

    so close!  so close!

    Yang San was escorted in front of Li Zhen, and Li Zhen asked: "Who ordered you to assassinate me?"

    General Yang San turned his head and said nothing.

    Li Zhen said: "Conspiracy to assassinate the prince is a serious crime against the nine clans. If you confess, it will not harm your family."

    Yang SanCold sweat broke out on my head, and I was struggling fiercely inside.

    "Prince, I can't help you!"

    "What?"

    Li Zhen¡¯s heart skipped a beat, Prince Li Chengqian was actually revealed in the middle?

    Li Chengqian has always had a good relationship with him, so why would he send someone to kill him?  If he wanted to kill himself, why would he save himself when he was hunting in Lishan Mountain?  This Yang San wants to blame Jiangdong!

    "Not telling the truth? Give me"

    Li Zhen couldn't speak anymore. A black stain of blood spilled from the corner of Yang San's mouth. Obviously, Yang San must have hidden the poison in his tooth cavity and then committed suicide by taking the poison.

    Before he died, he also arranged with the prince to try to establish a relationship between himself and the prince.  This Yang San is definitely a dead soldier.

    Although Li Zhen did not believe what Yang San said, Yang San's words revealed a message. Yang San's behind-the-scenes instigator was definitely an enemy of the prince. Otherwise, Yang San would not have been able to bite the prince before his death.

    Who is this person?

    Is it Li Tai?  Or is there someone else?

    Li Zhen immediately asked someone to check Yang San¡¯s details and who he was in contact with.

    It turned out that Yang San was a servant who had been in the government for five years and had no contact with the outside world. If Xue Rengui hadn't followed Li Zhen's method to investigate, no one would have thought that he was a traitor.

    Five years?

    Thinking about it carefully, it¡¯s terrifying. Doesn¡¯t this mean that the mastermind behind this started planning five years ago?

    It¡¯s really scary that there is an assassin who has been undercover by his side for five years.

    The clues were interrupted again, but at the same time, there was news about the officer who assassinated him in the Turkic trading house.

    Someone identified this officer as an officer of the Prince's Guards.

    ¡°It¡¯s the prince again!!¡±

    Li Zhen was surprised.

    In one day, the instigators of two assassinations pointed at Prince Li Chengqian. Could it be that Prince Li Chengqian really wanted to kill him?

    Impossible, absolutely impossible!  Someone must have deliberately pointed suspicion at the prince.

    On the same day that Li Zhen was assassinated, Wei King Li Tai was also attacked by an assassin, and Li Tai's arm was injured.

    Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound in Chang'an.

    King Li Tai of Wei was at odds with Prince Li Chengqian. It was obvious who appointed the assassin. All the fingers pointed at Prince Li Chengqian.

    Li Shimin couldn't help but become suspicious of Prince Li Chengqian, and determined to investigate the matter thoroughly. At the same time, he sent people to closely monitor Prince Li Chengqian's movements.

    At this time, Li Chengqian was on pins and needles. He immediately summoned his father-in-law Hou Junji to discuss countermeasures.

    Hou Junji cursed when he opened his mouth: "Damn it, it must be King Li Tai of Wei who did it. On the one hand, he staged a bitter plot, and on the other hand, he sent people to assassinate Li Zhen, so as to frame you and put the blame on you, the crown prince!"

    "Father-in-law, what should I do now?" Li Chengqian looked worried and asked Hou.

    "The matter is urgent, Li Tai must be killed immediately!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
