[Red Mansion] Young Master Lin Yan

Chapter 77 Lead the snake out of the hole

"Today, Mr. Lin has been taking a little eunuch to the assassin's site, making gestures and rowing. What are you doing?"

"You don't know, do you? Slightly, did you see that little eunuch? Look into his eyes!"

"Ah! His eyes...are Westerners?"

"It doesn't seem to be! I met a Westerner a few years ago. Their eyes are better than this one, and they are not so creepy. It is said that they are born in nature. I don't know how many people have been frightened since they were young. They were driven out of the village as monsters and lived in the mountains. Later, he was abducted and sold into the imperial palace. But with his eyes, no master likes him. He can only do odd jobs in the cold palace.

Later, His Royal Highness the Seventeenth took pity on him and brought him out.Wasn't this a while ago His Royal Highness King Ning caught a tiger and brought back two cubs?His Royal Highness the Seventeenth heard that he grew up in the mountains and had dealt with ferocious beasts, so he knew how to raise them.Let him take care of the tiger exclusively. "

"It's so! How did Mr. Lin find him?"

The previous "Knowledgeable" was even more mysterious, "Don't spread the word, I managed to find out. On the night the emperor was assassinated, the little tiger rushed out in a fit of temper, and he followed him to find the little tiger. The fleeing assassin. Fortunately, the assassin did not see him, and he escaped his life by hiding in the dark.

Just his eyes.That's a natural cat's eye.Like cats, seeing things at night is like daytime.He really saw the murderer's face.No, Mr. Lin knows.Take him to see Yuan Da's body.But he said it wasn't Yuanda! "

The listener suddenly turned pale, "No... isn't it Yuan Da? Is there really someone else in the assassin?"

"I'm afraid it is. Otherwise, Mr. Lin would not be able to find so many suspicious points. Isn't it clear that there is something wrong with it? Oh, look, no, Mr. Lin led him to see the place where he hid that day, and asked him to describe it. What happened that night! I hope to get other clues from him!"

"It shouldn't be! How many days has passed since the emperor was assassinated. Since he saw it, why didn't he report it earlier?"

"Who doesn't panic about such a big matter. He is naturally dumbfounded. Besides, he is not welcome. Just those eyes, standing in front of the emperor, scaring the emperor, what should I do if someone cuts me off?

Besides, he saw the assassin, but he didn't know who the assassin was.What can it do?It's better to pretend that you don't know, so as not to cause trouble!It is not easy for a young eunuch to live in the cold palace.Who wants to get involved in such a brain-dead thing.

It is said that the little tiger ran out again today, and went to the assassin's scene. This guy has a good nose.been wandering around.Mr. Lin found out that something was wrong, so he sent someone to find the little eunuch, and with a few words, tricked him, only then did he know that there was such a personal certificate. "

The listener's expression moved, the corners of his mouth twitched, and a smile appeared, "That's fine. In this way, with the witnesses and physical evidence, His Highness King Ning will be able to get rid of his grievances and restore his innocence. Because of this, His Majesty these days Day is in a bad mood, not to mention us, even those princes and ministers are trembling."

"Yes! I just hope that this matter will come to an end soon. Everyone can breathe a sigh of relief."

********

Holy Tabernacle.

"You mean, that little eunuch didn't go out at all that night?" Situ Kun's face turned livid.

Lin Yan was not in a hurry, "Yes! But the student has asked. Because his eyes are different from ordinary people, he is afraid of scaring others, so he won't be able to come out for a while. In the camp, except for His Royal Highness Seventeen and King Ning Your Highness, few people know him.

He has lived with the tiger since he took the job of looking after the tiger.In the upper corner of the east end, there is no one else around.Therefore, no one knows whether he has ever come out. "

"His eyes are just a different color, and he doesn't have the ability to see things at night?"

"It's a little better than ordinary people, but it's not as powerful as it is said. In the dark night, and it's such a chaotic place, even if it's really there, the assassin's face may not be seen."

Situ Kun snorted coldly, "That's it, you still let me issue an order to order people from all over the camp to come in batches, and let this little eunuch identify them one by one?"

"Your Majesty, calm down! Your Majesty, only you and I, together with Azak, know these things. Now everyone outside probably knows that there is such a witness. The facts are not important now. The important thing is that everyone thinks he is real. of."

Situ Kun's expression flickered slightly, he was leading a snake out of its hole!

"Assassination in the Holy Tent is no small matter. The real culprit must be found out, otherwise the students fear that he will endanger His Majesty again. Your Majesty, this place is very close to the border. In recent years, there have also been Beirong people coming in and out. Some people have ulterior motives and deliberately conspired. It has been a while since His Majesty set up camp here. Why did they not move before, but something happened after the military exercise?

Has Your Majesty ever thought about it.The military exercises here can be seen by ministers, guards, and spies.If the Beirong spies saw such a military exercise, how would they feel in their hearts?And if the Imperial Court of Beirong knew about it, what choice would it make? "

Lin Yan couldn't directly express his doubts about the prince, even if it was something anyone could think of.He shouldn't have said it so recklessly.Situ Kun would think of it himself.There is no need for him to add extra oil and vinegar, but it is inferior.Therefore, he could only impress Situ Kun with the theory of alien spies.

Of course, Situ Kun also knew what he said, and even Situ Kun thought deeper than him.But he could make Situ Kun think deeper.

Although it may fail to lure the snake out of the hole, it is a joke.But if it is really a conspiracy of alien races, there must be backhands in it. In this way, compared to catching spies, jokes are nothing!

Situ Kun's face darkened, "Sure!"

********

Five princes camp.

"The subordinates can hear clearly. That's what the man said. He was famous for inquiring in the camp. I heard that the news came from Qiu Ming, a young man who followed Lin Yan. It must be true.

The subordinates also saw that the little eunuch did have a pair of unusual eyes.And he is really capable, even the big tiger that King Ning hunted that day was willing to listen to him. "

Mr. Li's face was pale, and his lips trembled: "In this way, he really saw it!"

"This subordinate thinks, it should be. Moreover, this subordinate asked the imperial physician about it, and the imperial physician also said that there are indeed such people with natural cat eyes in the world. There are clear records in ancient medical techniques."

Situ Feng shook his body.Mr. Li hurried forward, "Your Highness, we should have made plans earlier!"

The little eunuch came in and reported, "The emperor ordered that all the camp personnel be on standby, go according to the batch, and arrange for identification in turn. His Royal Highness Cheng Wang has volunteered to be the first batch, and I invite the witnesses found by Mr. Lin to identify them at will!"

Situ Feng swayed again.

Situ Zheng was responsible for the defense of the camp, but he was jointly and severally responsible for the assassin.Also because of this, since Lin Yan checked more and more suspicious points, the possibility of Situ Yue being the main envoy became smaller and smaller.

At the same time, another voice appeared in the camp, and everyone turned their attention to him and Situ Zheng. In comparison, Situ Zheng had the advantage of patrolling, which was more prominent.

At this time, there are witnesses.Situ Zheng was naturally eager to let himself and the people below him be identified, just to remove the suspicion.

And since Situ Zheng has already put on such a posture, if he doesn't go quickly, he will be guilty of a crime!

But how will he go!People are in his name!What if I let him follow and point it out?And if you don't follow, there will be one person missing, and there will be no silver 300 taels here!

However, Lin Yan asked people from each family to come to the scene at the same time and identify them side by side.This made it impossible for him to use the same tricks he used to deal with the guards' search to fool him!

Situ Feng felt like falling into an ice cellar, his limbs and bones gradually turned cold.

Mr. Li's body was weak. If he hadn't supported the table, he might have fallen down. If... if he was really found out... Situ Feng is the prince, and the emperor might spare his life because of the love between father and son.But myself... I, the person who came up with the idea, I'm afraid it's not an exaggeration to be cut into pieces!

"Your Highness...Your Highness!" Mr. Li gritted his teeth. At this time, he couldn't think about it so much. Let's treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor!

"Your Highness! Ding Wei Ding Wu was born tall, somewhat like a Beirong man. We might as well push this matter to Beirong."

Situ Feng's eyes moved, "You mean..."

Mr. Li wiped his neck with a knife.Situ Feng agreed, and his body trembled.

The little eunuch ran in again, "Your Highness, His Highness Prince Cheng's inspection has been completed, and there is no problem."

Situ Zheng has finished checking, but he hasn't moved yet.No... no!

Situ Feng clenched his fists, it was too late!That's all I can do, I can't control so much!

********

Holy Tabernacle.

"Prince Cheng and his entourage, Mr. Lin, have all been inspected. Due to His Majesty's order, King Ning can't leave the account. The people under the care of King Ning are all escorted by Mr. Zhang, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. .Now it’s all over.”

Situ Kun continued to review the paperwork in his hand, and said indifferently: "Whose family are you checking now?"

"My lord Zhongshun!"

Situ Kun frowned slightly.

The guard said again: "Prince Zhongshun said that although he usually doesn't care about things, he also knows that His Majesty's safety is of great importance. They are the princes who are closest to the holy tent. And if someone hides an assassin, it is them, members of the royal family." Most likely. They should investigate first!"

Situ Kun chuckled, "Although the twelfth brother is absurd, he can still see things clearly."

After finishing speaking, he suppressed his smile again, "Where is Lao Wu?"

"His Royal Highness King An and the staff of the guards are in the camp and have never gone out."

As soon as the words fell, I heard someone outside begging for an audience, and another guard came in with an anxious expression, "Your Majesty, His Highness King An has been assassinated!"

Situ Kun stood up abruptly, his complexion turning green and pale for a while.

It was as if a cannonball had been thrown in the camp, and the pot exploded again.Some people whispered, some avoided it, and some were anxious.

But no matter what they said, Lin Yan smiled.All the people who had lined up to wait for Azak's identification were sent away, and they went back to Lin's camp on their own.

He intentionally set the identification site in an open place where His Majesty entertained all the officials on the first day of hunting, in order to let everyone see the situation.The royal family stood up one by one and let them be identified.Frank and aboveboard, self-proving innocence.Then those who have ghosts in their hearts will panic.

What Lin Yan wanted was for him to panic.When people panic, it is easy to make mistakes.And Lin Yan's identification was pressing, they didn't have time to think too much.The countermeasures that come up at this time are bound to be full of loopholes.As for these loopholes, the emperor Situ Kun would not fail to see them.

Now the goal has been achieved.Then it's about the prince, and it's not for him to get involved in the next thing.

So, go back and sleep!
