Chapter 1133
"No, what were you doing standing there for so long, touching the corpse's head?"
Seeing Xu Shan come to his senses, Chen Dingtian, who was working on a case with him for the first time, subconsciously asked.
Before Xu Shan could speak, Li Yuanfang chimed in, "Master Chen, my master is performing an autopsy!"
"He is using his own unique methods to identify the murderer."
"what?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Dingtian was greatly shocked and said with an exaggerated expression, "You can perform an autopsy and identify the murderer just by touching the head of a corpse?"
"No, Xu Shan. You don't know the 'spirit possession technique,' do you?"
After he finished speaking, Xu Shan pointed to the space between his eyebrows and replied, "I have opened my third eye."
"You can see what happened to the victim before they died."
When Xu Shan explained his "supernatural powers" in this way, Chen Dingtian, who was staring wide-eyed, couldn't help but swallow hard.
"Xu, Xu Shan..."
Do I look like an idiot to you?
"Don't you think they're easy to fool?"
"Are you playing with snakes with me?"
Too lazy to explain anything, Xu Shan turned his head and looked at Zhenwu Dao not far away: "What are Wang Huan and Niu Teng's status in the Wang Mansion?"
"It was Princess Ning, Shu Ning, who selected the advisors and assistants for Zhu Youping."
"Hmm? I remember you didn't tell them they were missing after you arrived, did you?"
When Zhenwu realized what was happening, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
Seeing the shocked expression on 'Prince Ning's' face, Chen Dingtian, who was standing there stunned, looked around and said, "No, are you all acting as me?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Shan immediately asked, "After the incident, did you send people to pursue them?"
"They've given chase."
"The most elite assault battalion of the Jiujiang Navy was dispatched, but they returned empty-handed when they reached the Shuzhou waters."
"why?"
"A naval battalion of the Jiangnan Navy is stationed there. It is also His Majesty's first line of defense against the Jiujiang Navy sailing upstream."
"According to the report from the returning assault battalion, when they arrived there, the Shuzhou naval battalion was already prepared for battle at any time."
"It seems they had prior knowledge that the assault battalion was going to pursue them."
"For this reason, the Ning Prince's mansion speculated that Wang Huan and Niu Teng were either members of the Embroidered Uniform Guard or members of the Divine Intelligence Bureau."
Upon hearing this, Xu Shan sneered, "In short, this mudslinging has been thrown at the imperial court and His Majesty?"
"It also directly sowed discord between the Prince Ning's Mansion and the imperial court."
"The two princes are dead. If Prince Ning's true soul is also extracted, he will become a living dead..."
"Given the current high level of anger in the Ning Prince's mansion, they will likely send troops north, won't they?"
After Xu Shan finished his analysis, Li Yuanfang blurted out, "At that time, I'm afraid both sides will suffer heavy losses."
"Both sides suffer?"
"What if the Shuzhou navy doesn't resist?"
"Is it possible for the Jiujiang navy to strike directly at the heart of Nanjing and stage a military coup?"
'boom.'
Upon hearing this, the people present erupted in uproar.
If the current "Prince Ning" is not an imposter, then everything Xu Shan analyzed is highly likely to happen.
"My lord, how did you determine that the Shuzhou navy would not resist?"
After Li Yuanfang finished speaking, Xu Shan said coldly, "I've always had a question."
"After Wang Huan and Niu Teng succeeded, why did they choose to travel by boat when time was so tight?"
"He naturally knew that the Jiujiang Navy's assault battalion was an absolute elite force, capable of catching up!"
"It wasn't until I heard Elder Zhenwu say that the entire Prince's Palace was now throwing mud at the court and His Majesty that I suddenly realized what was going on."
"All of this was done on purpose."
"What we want is for the assault battalion to catch up and discover that the Shuzhou Navy is protecting the two of them and actively erasing traces for Wang Huan and Niu Teng."
"After he returned and reported, the staff in the Prince's mansion naturally shifted the blame to the Divine Staff and the Embroidered Uniform Guard."
After Xu Shan finished speaking, Chen Dingtian, scratching his head and ears, said with a contorted face, "How do you know that the murderers are Wang Huan and Niu Teng?"
"And how did you figure out that time was so tight?"
"Also, who is Elder Zhenwu? Where is Elder Zhenwu here?"
who am I?
where am I?
How come I, the number one demon-suppressing envoy of the Ming Dynasty, look like such a fool now?
"Master Chen, how have you been?"
When Elder Zhenwu, who knew Chen Dingtian inside and out, said these words, he revealed his true colors.
"Huh? This, this is..."
"Zhichun's relic - [Substitute Dharma Image]".
"So, you mean the real Prince Ning is... already dead?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Shan, who was walking towards Zhu Youduan, replied, "If he hadn't died, would the naval forces of the two lakes have been able to cooperate with us so smoothly in breaking into the Kuimen Pass?"
Understood.
The truth has come out!
At this moment, the problem that Chen Dingtian had been struggling with before was finally solved.
"How many of the main forces of the Jiujiang Navy and the Prince of Ning's mansion are under our control?"
"A little over 50%!"
"According to your previous plan, Xu Jianzheng, we were to let Zhu Youping and Zhu Youduan compete in secret, and after they were both injured, we would take over the whole thing."
“I’ve been secretly fueling this whole thing. But now that this has happened so suddenly, it’s really tricky.”
"Especially Princess Ning, who was suspicious of me because I rarely went out and never received guests."
"The Shu family in Jiangxi is indeed a troublesome case."
“Prince Ning has money and manpower. The Shu family deserves much credit for this.”
"Many of the generals in the Jiujiang Navy and the Jiangxi garrison are from the Shu family."
After muttering these words, Xu Shan said nothing more and continued to communicate with the spirit of Zhu Youduan, who had died first!
Seeing his posture, Chen Dingtian was truly frightened and pointed at him, saying, "Again? This, this..."
Before he could finish speaking, the old rascal met the 'sharp' gazes of the crowd and wisely shut his mouth.
But regarding Xu Shan's opening of the Heavenly Eye, he thought to himself that he really should go back and ask his master about it when he had time.
Zhu Youduan's death, like Zhu Youping's, was caused by Wang Huan, Niu Teng, and their gang.
But it's also somewhat different!
Judging from their conversation, it seems that Princess Ning was also behind this.
Simply put, the Prince of Ning, upon his return this time, acted out of character, not only failing to directly bestow the title of heir apparent upon Zhu Youping.
On the contrary, it increased Zhu Youduan's power.
This makes the two half-brothers appear to be evenly matched in terms of status and strength.
Therefore, for the sake of her son's future, Princess Ning also harbored murderous intentions.
In Shu Ning's view, as long as Zhu Youduan died, his son would be firmly in the position of heir apparent.
Little did she know that all her plans would ultimately benefit the late Emperor Zhu Wushang.
As for her, she lost both her wife and her army.
"Ok?"
In the psychic vision, Xu Shan saw the black-robed man who had cast a spell to seal the 'tumor' once again.
This time, he learned the other party's identity through Zhu Youduan!
