Chapter 187 There is a black hand behind the scenes

Chang'an is full of traffic and prosperous!

In an Anlefang wine shop, there are silk and bamboo lingering here, and the humble girls dance. From time to time, the cheers of the drinkers came from below, which was very lively.

"Have you heard that, it seems that an assassin appeared in the palace yesterday!"

"Assassin? The palace is heavily guarded, how could there be an assassin? Could this be the rumor you heard from? "

"Not this time, this time I heard from the people next door of me. You also know that there is a Jinwu Guard sitting next door. It is said that this incident was spread from the palace."

"Who was stabbed? Could it be the Lord?"

"Swish, why are you doing the sect? The sect is now in the harem."

"Who was stabbed?"

"Who do you think our Tang Dynasty has the greatest power now?"

"Who has the greatest power? Could it be His Highness the King of Qin and the current crown prince? Could it be that the crown prince was stabbed?"

"Well, it seems that you still have some understanding. I didn't expect you to guess it. Yes, the stabbed one was indeed the former King of Qin and the current Prince?"

"What, this matter is actually true. Who dares to be so bold? Even His Royal Highness dares to assassinate him. Is it because he is desperate?"

"Don't have your life? Hehe, do you think you will be an ordinary person if you dare to assassinate the current crown prince? What's more, I heard that this assassination revealed a strange thing. It's hard to say whether someone entered the palace to assassinate!"

"Brother Wang, are you trying to deceive me? You are not a human being, are you still a ghost?"

"Hehe, who knows this? Come, come, drink, drink!"

"No, Brother Wang, you didn't say anything halfway. This is to make me unable to eat. Say it quickly, say it quickly!"

"Oh, the wine is a bit bad today. Could it be that the wine shop has mixed water?"

"Okay, okay, I understand! Waiter, bring your best wine to a pot!"

"Hey, a pot of good Biqing wine is here!" After hearing someone calling, the waiter next to him immediately jogged to the counter and took out a pot of wine from it.

"Come on, Brother Wang, how do you think of this pot of wine?"

"Ah, good, good wine!"

"How is it, Brother Wang, can you tell me now?"

"Okay, then I'll say it, but I'll tell you this, don't spread it, otherwise you'll have to behead you."

"I understand, understand, I, Han, have the strictest mouth."

"I heard that the assassination that happened in the palace yesterday was very strange. King Qin, it is wrong. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was said to have not been assassinated yesterday. He had been assassinated once the night before yesterday."

"What, this assassin is so horrible. He couldn't assassinate once the night before yesterday. He continued to assassinate yesterday. Could it be that he had eaten the courage of Xiong Xin and Leopard?"

"Hey, Brother Han, I'm not talking about this. Do you know, according to my brother, the reason why these two assassins were said to be strange is because whether it was the night before yesterday or yesterday, the assassination occurred in the room of His Royal Highness the Prince. It is said that not only did the doors and windows of His Royal Highness close that day, but there were also dozens of eunuchs and Qianniu Guards guarding around."

"Hey, I thought Brother Wang, what did you say? It happened in the room so mysteriously. Is it a woman who assassinated His Royal Highness? Otherwise, who could enter His Royal Highness's room?"

"It would be great if things were that simple." The middle-aged man named Wang took a sip of wine and whispered, "But the key is that when His Highness the Crown Prince was stabbed twice, there was only His Highness in the room. What's even more strange is that the eunuchs and Qianniu Guards who were guarding outside fainted without realizing it."

"How is that possible? Brother Wang, are you joking? The eunuch guards of the Crown Prince and Qianniu Guard, even in the palace, all of them fainted unknowingly. Could it be that they were knocked out at the same time? No, if they were knocked out, they would not be unconscious. Could it be that they were caught in the smoke, sweating medicine, etc.?"

"Brother Han is really joking. Being confused? Sweating medicine is just a trick in the world. How could it be that dozens of people can be really put down?"

"What did Brother Wang say?"

"I don't know what it is. If I knew, then Wang could have gone to the yamen to do a good job. However, it seems that someone heard that when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was unconscious yesterday, he called Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's name..."

"Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji... Isn't this the name of the previous prince and the King of Qi? Didn't these two people have been rebelling half a month ago..."

"Yes, the previous Prince and the King of Qi have been dead in a rebellion for half a month. It is said that the heads of these two people were cut off by the current Prince of the Crown Prince! These three people are all brothers of a mother and a compatriot. Tsk, this matter..."

"This... Brother Wang means, is it a ghost at work?"

"Who knows? But it is said that yesterday the imperial palace ordered the monks near Chang'an and the great masters of the Taishi Bureau to enter the palace."

"Haha, okay, okay, don't talk about this anymore, otherwise it's a taboo. Come, Brother Han, drink, thank you for your generous hospitality!"

After a loud laugh, the two talked about other things in Chang'an, but they did not expect that the hidden conversation had been heard by a young man wearing a white Confucian robe beside him.

Moreover, this young man also knew that not only this table, but also three tables on the second floor above the tavern, had talked about the topics they just mentioned about the assassination of the prince and the troubles of ghosts.

The so-called good things don’t go out, bad things spread thousands of miles!

If it was just an ordinary thing, it would naturally be possible for everyone to lose it, but this matter is related to the foundation of the country, and it is the most popular prince Li Shimin, who has been in the limelight recently. The most important thing is that this matter is related to the palace change half a month ago.

Although Li Shimin had been trying hard to hide what happened yesterday, at noon yesterday, after all the guards guarding Li Shimin fainted, the ministers next to him fell directly from thousands of Qianniu Guards, and then they found that Li Shimin, who was seriously injured, and some of the words he had shouted in a coma.

Thousands of Qianniu Guards and thousands of spoken words. Even if Du Ruhui and others immediately ordered no one to speak nonsense, how could they really keep these secrets?

You should know that although these Qianniu Guards have a low status, many of them are descendants of nobles from aristocratic families. How could they really keep this secret with just one order from Du Ruhui?

However, this incident was spread so quickly, and it was spread so quickly, and it seemed to be known to the entire Chang'an. This made Li Chengming feel that this incident might not be as simple as he thought.

It seems that there is a mastermind behind the scenes that fuel the fire, otherwise this matter would not have been able to spread so quickly.

So, who will be the mastermind behind this?

Li Chengming picked up the teacup on the table and drank a sip of the cup. He looked up at the pedestrians in the street not far below, and his eyes couldn't help but condensed...
