He seemed to have been fooled by someone!
Quietly asking the eunuch at the side, Geng Qing realized that the one who recommended Yin Lian to enter the palace was actually Prince Rui, Nalan Ronglang!
The matter of Sixth Prince Nalan Rongyu, Vice Minister Zhang's death, and even the matter he was currently investigating, all of this had been pushed forward by the person behind the scenes.
Geng Qing was a man of his actions, and knew that there were some things that needed proof, so he quickly began to investigate. After a few days, he actually did find some clues.
However, in the past few days, he had felt that there were always people watching him. He knew that things would eventually get exposed, so he had privately arranged to meet with his best friend.
Then, he passed a written letter to his old friend. ”Old Wu, if I don't come to find you in three days, you can pass this letter to King Xuan.”
”Geng Qing, have you caused some trouble?” Hearing his serious tone, his old friend started to panic.
Geng Qing smiled indifferently: ”Have the troubles on my body been stopped before? ”Don't think too much.”
That old friend nodded his head. Geng Qing was indeed a troublesome machine to make, so he frowned: ”Everyone says that the King Xuan is cold towards others. How can I, a normal citizen, see it?”
”Just say that I told you to go, and he will definitely meet you!” In fact, Geng Qing had long noticed that among the two groups of people following him, one of them had been searching for clues that he had obtained, while the other group had not done anything.
It seemed like he had a hunch that there were people from the King Xuan among them. Those people seemed to have secretly protected his safety, which was why he took this risk.
Seeing Geng Qing's serious expression, his old friend quickly agreed. ”Don't worry, I will definitely do it. Be careful, don't be so rash.”
”I know, don't worry. I'll be promoted to the government office to make a fortune this time around.” Geng Qing laughed.
In the study room, Geng Qing looked at the evidence in front of him and was in a state of disbelief. King Rui, it really was King Rui!
After writing the report overnight, before the sky brightened, Geng Qing had already started to rush towards the palace. The horses were galloping, but Geng Qing felt that his back was getting colder and colder, and the premonition was getting stronger and stronger, as if there was a pair of sinister eyes staring straight at him.
He knew that if he investigated this matter, it would definitely bring about trouble. Since Rui Wang was so patient, perhaps he might be even more ruthless than the crown prince back then, but he had to submit the paper money. Although he did not like the crown prince and did not like Nalan Rongyu, he was still a man of business.
The palace doors were already in front of him, and Geng Qing could even hear the sounds of fighting behind him. He knew that the other party had already begun to move, as long as he entered the palace, King Rui would definitely not be able to move so easily.
But Geng Qing was also unable to complete his last wish, the palace door had already slowly opened, but his body suddenly jerked, a sharp arrow pierced into his heart from behind.
Geng Qing unwillingly glanced at the half opened palace gate, then tilted his body and fell off his horse …
Not far away, a black clothed person stood against the wind, put away the crossbow in his hand, and quickly flew to Geng Qing's front. He reached out and took something from's chest, revealing a complacent smile, then turned around and left.
Geng Qing died, in front of the palace gate.
