Born in an ancient peasant family, the peasant girl became famous all over the world

Chapter 396 Undercurrent surging

Zhao Chongzhen came out to prove that his fourth uncle was innocent, so he ran towards him quickly.

Zhao Chongzheng's personal bodyguard, Zhou Jian, was surprised and felt very nervous when he saw Zhao Yuanzhen running towards him.

Why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince appear at this time?

Could it be that this is part of Minister Wen’s plan?

In secret, Minister Su, an official from the Ministry of Justice who was dressed as a commoner, saw all this clearly, for some reason.

"Your Highness, why are you joining in the fun at this time?"

"Maybe it's about the Fourth Prince." An official replied.

"Do I need to tell you that?" Because of the importance of the case, Su Chuan, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice, still took action personally.

And because he himself has martial arts skills, he is confident in catching the person behind the scenes.

Seeing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince appear out of nowhere, it’s really difficult to stop him, and it’s also difficult not to stop him.

In secret, several men who were also dressed as ordinary people originally had no intention of taking any action, but with the appearance of the prince, they began to hesitate.

"Chief, the prince has also come to look for the secret letter. It seems that the secret letter is real. When do we start?"

"Let's wait and see. The people from the Ministry of Justice must be waiting for us to take the bait." Of course, the leader also thought of this.

Another person said, "If you don't take action now, the letter will be sent to His Majesty."

"The Ministry of Justice is really troublesome." The leader looked around. Although he could not see the Ministry of Justice, he already sensed the smell of conspiracy. "Observe first, and never act rashly."

The two groups of people in the dark were both staring at the position ahead.

When guard Zhou Jian saw the prince approaching, he clasped his fists and

"too…"

"How dare you, a fish that has escaped the net, walk around in the street so brazenly!" Zhao Yuanzhen scolded as soon as he arrived.

I really don't know how the wise and brave Fourth Uncle could train such a stupid guard.

Guard Zhou looked around.

"His Royal Highness, you..."

"Follow me into the palace to meet our father!" Zhao Yuanzhen gave an order, and Qin Yi and Qin Er quickly stood on Zhou Jian's left and right.

Guard Zhou was forced to follow the Crown Prince to the palace.

Behind him, the Vice Minister of Justice and others followed quietly like ordinary people, thinking, maybe this is what His Majesty wants?

However, using one's own prince as bait may be effective, but isn't it too dangerous?

On the way, Zhao Yuanzhen looked around and asked, eager to know the truth:

"Didn't you say that you found out who was behind this? Who is it?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Jian was certain at that moment that the Crown Prince's appearance this time was not part of Minister Wen's plan.

He came here sincerely to find evidence.

"I thank His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on behalf of His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince. You are the only one who truly believes in him."

Zhao Yuanzhen was in a hurry at the moment. He was very unhappy with Zhou Jian's irrelevant answer and asked anxiously:

"Who on earth is it? Who wants to harm the Fourth Uncle?"

"Yes... I don't know who it is either." Zhou Jian had no choice but to whisper the truth.

"It was Minister Wen and the young general who set up the scheme in secret and deliberately revealed the secret letter in order to lure out the person behind the scenes."

Although Zhou Jian said this, he actually had a lot of complaints about Jiang Yue in his heart.

Although their Highness fell into a trap before, it was because his Highness was not prepared enough, so that was his own problem.

But how did Jiang Yue put the assassin yesterday on their Highness?

Their Highness will not take the blame for this.

"Minister Wen? Young General?" After Zhao Yuanzhen heard this, his brain raced for a while, and there was nothing he didn't understand.

As it was a bit unusual, he stopped looking around. This time the feeling was different from before. He felt that there was something wrong with everyone he looked at.

"Someone must be following us."

Zhao Yuanzhen's words made Qin Yi and Qin Er behind him feel a chill.

Zhou Jian: Of course I want to know.

"However, they have been reluctant to take action. They must have noticed something."

After hearing this, Zhao Yuanzhen thought carefully:

"They were afraid of being caught. They must have been waiting for the right moment, but they didn't expect me to come."

I think those people would certainly think that a child is easy to deal with.

Then, he said hurriedly:

"Hand over the secret letter."

Guard Zhou Jian looked conflicted. Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince already knew what had happened, why did he still want the forged secret letter?

Seeing that he has been targeted, what should he do if something happens to the prince?

"Your Highness, please forgive me. I cannot engage in diplomacy."

"Hand it over. Aren't you in a hurry to rescue the Fourth Prince from prison?" Zhao Yuanzhen emphasized.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is worth a thousand gold." Zhou Jian was no longer in a dilemma.

But the next moment, he was caught off guard, and the forged secret letter in his arms fell into Zhao Yuanzhen's hands.
