Si Yi and Master Xuan Qing have already checked the dead assassins.

At this time, Si Yi found a dagger from one of the assassins.

On the handle of the dagger, there is a word 鍍.

Wen Nong Nong took a look and said with a frown, "It's impossible for these people to be sent by King Jin tonight."

Si Yi was puzzled, "Why are you so sure?"

"I was kidnapped by King Qi only last time. If he wanted to threaten the lord, last time was a good opportunity. There's no need to spend so much trouble." Wen Nong said.

Master Xuanqing pondered for a while and said, "The princess's analysis is not unreasonable. It seems that someone behind the scenes must deliberately want to blame the king."

"But, who would do that? What's in it for him?" Wen Nongrong was lost in thought.

And it covers a wide range of people.

It was very likely Gu Linchao's political enemy, and it was very likely sent by Beidi.

After all, if Gu Linchao fought against King Qi, they would be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Of course, there is also Gu Heng who can benefit.

King Zhuang is entrenched in Zhuangzhou, and his power is growing day by day, how could Gu Heng allow him to sit big?

He could use Gu Linchao to deal with King Qi.

It's just that if Gu Heng did it, he should not just want to take the opportunity to provoke a fight between Gu Linchao and King Jin.

Then what is his purpose?

Wen Nong Nong thought hard.

Gu Linchao, what is Gu Heng most afraid of and most wanted?

What Gu Heng wanted most was to get rid of Gu Linchao's assistance and truly take power.

Thinking of this layer, her eyes suddenly lit up.

Yep, it's a soldier.

Gu Linchao holds the military power and is the supreme commander of the three armies, and over the years, the soldiers have followed him to fight south and north, and they have been extremely sharp.

Such a sharp teacher, Gu Heng as the emperor, how can he not be moved and greedy?

Therefore, what Gu Heng wanted most should be the military talisman in Gu Linchao's hand.

If he can get the military talisman, he can rest easy and no longer have to be controlled by anyone, so this time, it is very likely that he directed it.

While robbing her of the soldier talisman, she could also plant the guilt on King Ji.

I have to say, this is really a two birds with one stone.

However, why did he think that Gu Linchao would obediently give his arms to her for her?

Gu Heng really looked down on her too much.

"By the way, the men in black entered the Huangming Temple tonight, as if they were in a no-man's land, they first set fire to the main hall, then assassinated the queen mother, and captured the noble concubine A Tuo. There is an internal response." Wen Nong Nong suddenly broke the silence.

She actually had some doubts in her heart that what happened tonight was done by Si Luo.

After all, Si Luo is Gu Heng's right-hand man. If her guess was correct, then what happened tonight must be caused by Si Luo.

But this is all her guess, and she has no evidence to directly prove it.

She can only remind so.

When Si Yi heard this, he seemed to have thought of something, and his expression changed slightly, "Go to the Queen Mother's yard to have a look."

Wen Nong Nong nodded, "Okay." Looking at Master Xuanqing, "Master want to go there together?"

Xuanqing nodded, "The empress dowager was assassinated at Huangming Temple, so the poor monk should visit."

A Tuo Jianghua didn't understand very well, but seeing a few people going to the Queen Mother's yard, they went there together.

"By the way, has the fire in the main hall been put out yet?" Wen Nongong remembered and asked.

Xuan Qing nodded, "Before the poor monk went to the back mountain, the fire was getting smaller, and it should have been extinguished by now."

"That's good." Wen Nong Nong felt relieved.

When the group went to Queen Mother Guo's yard, they were stopped by the guards guarding there.

"I just heard that the queen mother was assassinated. We want to go in and see the queen mother. Please help us spread the word." Wen Nongrong said with a worried look.

The Imperial Army knew that she was the Princess Regent, and after hesitating, he said, "Princess, wait a moment, Rong Beizhi will go in and report."

"There is no need to report. The Queen Mother has rested, so I exited the Queen Mother's room." At this moment, a laughing voice interrupted the words of the forbidden army.

Seeing him, the Imperial Army hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Deputy Commander."

Wen Nongrong and the others saw Si Luo walking out of the shadows.

Si Luo waved his hand at the Imperial Army, and the Imperial Army immediately stepped aside.

"Princess don't worry, the queen mother is fine, but she was a little frightened. It's already very late, the princess should go back to resettlement first." Si Luo smiled and looked at Wen Nongnan.

Wen Nong Nong glanced at him, whether it was his appearance or his voice, it was different from the man in black just now.

Could it be that she guessed wrong?

Her eyes fell on his right wrist, she paused, and said with concern: "What, is the deputy commander injured?"

Si Luo raised his right hand, which was wrapped in gauze, looked at it, and said helplessly: "Exactly, just now, an assassin suddenly broke in and killed the queen mother. When I came over, I happened to have a few moves with the assassin, and I accidentally , was injured by the assassin, making the princess laugh."

Wen Nong Nong hooked her lips and said, "It's not too bad to laugh at, but only the right hand of the deputy commander is injured?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Si Yi suddenly drew his sword and slashed at Si Luo's left hand.

Si Luo was startled, stepped back quickly, and said angrily, "Si Yi, why are you crazy?"

Si Yi did not speak, and continued to attack him.

Si Luo was helpless, so he had to use his uninjured left hand to pull out his sword to resist.

Although it is his left hand, his movements are also very flexible, and it does not look like he is injured at all.

Wen Nong Nong and Xuan Qing have been watching from the side.

Just in the back mountain, the left hand of the man in black was hit by Master Xuanqing's Buddha beads, and the injury was not light. If Si Luo was the man in black, he should have revealed his flaws.

Apparently, Si Yi also understood this level, so he suddenly attacked him.

After looking at it for a while, seeing that he couldn't see anything, Wen Nong Nong had to stop it, "Enough Si Yi, you are looking for the deputy commander to compete, and you should choose another time, you didn't see the deputy commander. My right hand is injured, is it inconvenient to fight with you?"

Shi Yi stopped the attack at the right time.

Si Luo took a breath and smiled helplessly: "It turns out that you wanted to challenge me, but today is really not the right time. Let's do it another day. We'll compete in a dignified manner."

Si Yi sneered at the corner of his mouth, ignored him, turned around and left.

Wen Nong said: "Since the queen mother has rested, let's go back first and visit the queen mother tomorrow."

Xuanqing also said Amitabha.

Watching the few people turn and leave, Si Luo's eyes narrowed, his left hand hanging beside him, but his mouth was numb, and if he looked closely, he was trembling slightly.

Si Luo gave orders to the Imperial Army as if nothing had happened, and then returned to his residence.

As soon as he entered the house, he closed the door and pulled up his left sleeve.

Near the tiger's mouth, there is a round wound, which was dropped when the Buddha beads hit. The wound has stopped bleeding, but the surrounding skin is bruised and swollen.
