Portable Space: The Peasant Princess

Chapter 736 Who is the murderer? (6) (Updated)

Magistrate Ji frowned and continued to ask: "Then who do you think is most likely?"

Lu Yuan thought carefully and suddenly whispered: "If we say the most likely ones, they are Murong Bai and Murong Hua, but..."

Murong Hua is already dead, so it was most likely Murong Bai who did it.

 But why did he let Yang Yong kill Yang Ping?

 In his opinion, Murong Bai is a cunning person who will never let go of any opportunity to deal with them, no matter how insignificant the opportunity is.

Yang Ping is the person Gu Panxia hates the most. Yang Ping has also tried to kill Gu Panxia many times. Logically speaking, he should be able to cooperate with Yang Ping. How could he kill him?

Shouldn’t you use such low-level means if you want to put the blame on someone?

Although Gu Panxia had a feud with Yang Ping, it was not enough to put Yang Ping to death. Furthermore, killing someone and then throwing his body into the Moon River would only make everyone suspicious of Gu Panxia, ​​and there was nothing completely wrong at all. evidence of.

Did he just want to make Gu Panxia feel sick? Lu Yuan was a little confused.

 “Just what?”

Seeing that he just said nothing, Magistrate Ji was a little confused.

"It's just that Murong Hua is dead, so the only possibility is Murong Bai."

Magistrate Ji frowned slightly, "Isn't this Murong Bai the third prince who was driven out of the capital by His Majesty?"

Murong Bai's seizure of the throne caused a sensation in the entire Zhou Dynasty. Even if he was not in the capital, he still got the news.

Lu Yuan nodded, "Yes, it's him."

"It is said that this person has joined Guangmen and has never returned to the capital for so many years. Why did he suddenly appear and attack Yang Ping?" Magistrate Ji couldn't figure it out either.

Murong Bai and Yang Ping have nothing to do with each other.

Lu Yuan's eyes dimmed, "Uncle Ji doesn't know something. Yang Ping is from the Prophet's Mansion, and the Prophet's Mansion is from King Annan. Therefore, Yang Ping can also be regarded as a person from King Annan. Since he is a person from King Annan, Murong Hua is very rich. You may have met Yang Ping."

At this point, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Murong Bai colluded with Prince Annan and his son to try to seize the throne, but failed in the end. King Annan's followers were also eliminated by His Majesty, and there were no more available people.

As for Yang Ping, he is a scholar, and he is at the top of the list. He must be talented. When he is named on the gold list and enters the palace, he will naturally become their eyeliner. "

"If that's the case, why did he kill Yang Ping?" Magistrate Ji was still a little confused.

Lu Yuan smiled. He looked at Magistrate Ji and whispered, "I probably guessed some reasons."

"What's the reason?" Magistrate Ji asked impatiently.

Lu Yuan said quietly: "The reason is very simple, that's me."

"you?"

Magistrate Ji was even more confused now.

"Because I am now Prince Yi, and Yang Ping offended me. At that time, I wanted someone to take action secretly to prevent Yang Ping from participating in the imperial examination. However, in order not to alarm others, I did not take action in the end. However, because of this incident Yang Ping has always been afraid of me."

He paused and then said: "Later, King Annan was removed, the prefect was also removed from power, and his last supporter also fell. Being isolated and helpless, he naturally felt that I would stop him from taking part in the imperial examination. , he himself will never have the chance to participate..."

Lu Yuan only said this, then he stopped and glanced at Magistrate Ji who was listening with his eyes lowered.

Magistrate Ji was silent for a long time, and finally looked up in realization.
