Save the Bachelor of Heaven

"There is one more thing, Auntie wants to tell you." Ming Yuan said again, "Back then, Mr. Chai did his best to let the Gu family preserve the only bloodline regardless of his own safety."

As soon as Xiang Nan heard it, he knew she was referring to Gu Jian.

Sure enough, Chai Mu walked to the corner and shouted, "Come in."

Immediately, a young man in white came over. Sword eyebrows staring eyes, heroic spirit is compelling, but the brows are full of melancholy, presumably bound by the blood feud between the Gu and Chen families.

"He is the only son of your uncle Gu Ruhui, your cousin Gu Jian." Ming Yuan introduced.

"Fifth Prince~" Gu Jian bowed and saluted.

"Cousin~" Xiang Nan stepped forward excitedly, hugged him and said, "It's really great to see you."

Gu Jian was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Xiang Nan to be so enthusiastic, and he couldn't help but be very moved.

The Gu family was killed by Gao Ming, and he lost a single relative in the world. Now there is finally a cousin who gives him a long-lost warmth.

Ming Yuan and Chai Mu nodded when they saw their brothers' friendship and harmony.

"Yuyao, I didn't keep my promise and told Cheng Yin all the truth, you won't blame me." Ming Yuan looked at Gu Yuyao's portrait and said, "The situation is extremely dangerous now, I don't want him to be kept in the dark and be used by others , when the time comes, there will be no redemption.”

"Auntie, don't worry, I will be cautious, develop slowly, eradicate traitors, share worries for the father and emperor, and eliminate harm for the rich dynasty." Xiang Nan said to Ming Yuan.

"Good boy." Hearing what he said, Mingyuan was really satisfied, "By the way, this is half of the jade pendant left by your mother, and now I can finally return it to you."

As she spoke, she took out half of the jade pendant from her sleeve and handed it to Xiang Nan.

Xiang Nan took the jade pendant, and then untied the other half from his waist.

He saw that the two pieces of jade pendants could be combined into one, and the middle of the jade pendant was engraved with the character "阴", which was his name.

...

After seeing Mingyuan, Xiang Nan left the Xizhou Imperial Palace, and then went to the Anhu Mansion in the Western Territory.

From Yanzhi City to Anhu Mansion in the Western Territory, it took about a day to arrive.

He is going to meet Gao Xian, Gao Xian, the eldest son of Gao Ming, and Pei Zhao, the son of Pei Kuang, the general of Xiaoqi, to gain support for himself.

In addition, I have to see Prince Li Chengji for the last time.

Although Xiang Nan doesn't have deep feelings for him, Li Cheng Yin really regards him as his big brother, and he has always been kind to Li Cheng Yin.

It's not suitable to see the last side.

What's more, the King of Xizhou did not decide the ownership of the nine princesses until three days later, and it would be too late for Xiang Nan to come back by then.

After a day of exhaustion, Xiang Nan and others finally came to the Anhu Mansion in the Western Territory.

"Fifth Prince~" Protector Gao Xian and General Pei Zhao led the generals to greet him at the door.

After Xiang Nan returned the gift, he first went to the mourning hall to pay homage to Prince Li Chengji.

"Brother, fifth brother is late~" Xiang Nan looked at Li Chengji lying on the coffin, choked up and said, and then tears rolled down his face.

It was really too easy for him to shed tears, as realistic as it could be.

"Fifth prince, my condolences~" Gao Xian said from the side.

Li Chengye and Li Feng also came over when they heard the sound, and seeing Xiang Nan crying so emotionally, they couldn't help being slightly taken aback.

...

After crying for a while, Xiang Nan returned to Baihu Hall with Li Chengye, Li Feng, Gao Xian, Pei Zhao and others to discuss matters.

"Second brother, is there any clue about the assassination of the emperor's brother?" Xiang Nan asked.

"I have found out that on the day the prince was assassinated, the Danchi people had just plundered Haizhou City, and the prince happened nearby." Li Chengye nodded and said, "I also sent someone to inspect the weapons left at the scene, and it was confirmed that it was Dan Chi. It is a thing in the Chi people's army. Moreover, the fatal wound on the crown prince's body is also consistent with the edge of the weapon."

"These evidences are enough to prove that the assassin who assassinated the prince was from Danchi." Li Feng added from the side.

"If this was really done by the Danchi people, why did they leave such obvious evidence?" Xiang Nan frowned when he heard this, "Why didn't they take the weapons away?"

"Perhaps, they didn't have time to take away those weapons!" Li Feng explained.

"No, the assassin has time to dispose of the corpse, how could he not have time to take away the weapon?" Yuan Tong, the deputy general beside Gao Xian, said.

"Presumptuous!" Gao Xian glared at him.

Li Chengye and Li Feng also had unnatural expressions on their faces.

It was indeed an irreconcilable nuisance in their plans.

If you want to frame Dan Chi, you must leave evidence. But the evidence is too obvious, and it is easy to arouse suspicion.

"Apart from weapons, is there any other evidence that can prove that the assassin is from Danchi?" Xiang Nan asked again.

Li Chengye and Li Feng were immediately speechless.

Apart from the weapon, they really have no other evidence.

"Fifth brother, don't worry! The prince's assassination case is no small matter. Naturally, this king will not jump to conclusions easily. He will definitely continue to investigate in detail following the clues.

However, don't forget, the purpose of the Holy Majesty sending this king this time. This king did not come to investigate the case alone, but an army of one hundred thousand followed behind him. " Li Chengye said quietly.

When everyone heard it, they stopped talking.

Although Li Chengye didn't say it clearly, the meaning was obvious. That is, no matter whether the prince was killed by Danchi people or not, the emperor has decided to launch troops against Danchi.

That being the case, everyone should stop worrying about who killed the prince.

"It is reported that Dan Chi and Shuo Bo are gathering troops, General Gao knows about it, right?" Li Feng stared at Gao Xian again and asked.

"The last general has received a tip-off, so he is monitoring their movements day and night." Gao Xian quickly expressed his opinion.

"Your Majesty is very concerned about the peace of the Northwest, and it all depends on the concerted protection of everyone here," Li Chengye said again.

Everyone nodded.

Hear the meaning of his words. Since it is to "unite", then stop questioning the death of the crown prince and follow Li Chengye's arrangement in everything.

...

After the meeting, Xiang Nan went to meet Gao Xian first.

"Fifth Prince~" Gao Xian bowed and saluted.

"Cousin, please get up quickly~" Xiang Nan hurriedly stepped forward and supported him, "We are a family, so we don't need to see others like this."

Gao Xian smiled slightly, "Etiquette cannot be discarded, after all, the fifth prince is a nobleman, with golden branches and jade leaves."

Xiang Nan smiled and saw that Gao Xian was an old fox.

"Uncle, before I came, uncle dragged me to bring you a letter." He took out the letter from his sleeve and said.

Gao Xian took it respectfully, opened it and saw that Gao Ming in the letter told his son to help the Fifth Prince a lot. Let him accumulate a lot of military merits so that he can compete for the crown prince.

After reading it, Gao Xian put the letter away, then looked at Xiang Nan and said with a smile, "Thank you, Fifth Prince. I already understand what father is thinking, don't worry, I will definitely help you."

"Thank you cousin." Xiang Nan bowed and saluted. "Cheng Yin, please take care of everything."

Gao Xian nodded.
