"You didn't catch the assassin and you still dare to wake bengong up? Then what's so urgent?”Li Chengqian's face sank.

"Your Highness, we have confirmed the assassin's origin!”Feng Xiaoyue lowered his head and answered in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Li Chengqian's expression eased a little.

If the assassin's identity had been confirmed, even if he had not been caught yet, it would be a matter of time.

More importantly, knowing the identity of the assassin, he could deduce who the mastermind was!

"Let BenGong guess first, are those assassins the subordinates of the Yue King?”

Li Chengqian narrowed his eyes and revealed a mature sneer that did not belong to his age.

The King of Yue was Li Chengqian's younger brother, Li Tai.

The current Li Tai could be said to be deeply loved by Li Shimin.

At the beginning of the year, Li Tai, who was only nine years old, was granted the title of King of Yue. He was also granted the title of Governor of Yangzhou and Governor of Yuezhou. He was in charge of the military affairs of sixteen states, including Chang, Hai, Run, Chu, Shu, Lu, Hao, Shou, She, Su, Hang, Xuan, Dongmu and Nanhe. He was also the governor of Yangzhou and the governor of Yue, Wu, Quan, Jian, Tai and Kuo.

Not only did the favored Li Tai not become an official (he stayed in Chang 'an, the center of power, and did not take up his post before his fief), but his fief was as many as 22 provinces. At the same time, the prince Li Ke, who was also conferred, only had eight provinces!

Li Shimin had broken the tradition of " choosing a direct heir over a virtuous one " during the Xuanwu Gate incident. He had killed his brother and forced Li Yuan to abdicate and ascend the throne. This had directly led to Li Chengqian being very wary and hostile towards Li Tai...

Especially when Li Tai was so favored.

Although Li Chengqian was often despised by Li Er, as the Crown Prince, he had countless aides by his side, and his mind was far more mature than his peers.

Therefore, when Feng Xiaoyue reported that he had found out the identity of the assassin, Li Chengqian's first suspect was Li Tai.

It was precisely because he suspected that the mastermind behind the scenes was Li Tai that Li Chengqian kept a low profile and investigated the case.

Feng Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment before he shook his head." I don't think so. According to the spy's report, the person who tried to assassinate Your Highness should be a remnant of the previous dynasty!"”

"Remnants of the previous dynasty?" Li Chengqian was somewhat surprised. This was a possibility that he had never thought of.

When the Sui Dynasty was destroyed, he was not even born yet. He did not have any enmity with those so-called "remnants of the previous dynasty"!

Li Chengqian couldn't understand why he was targeted. Could it be that someone in Chang 'an colluded with these remnants of the previous dynasty and secretly plotted against him?

"Yes." Feng Xiaoyue nodded and replied," We started with the crossbow bolts left at the scene. We searched the armory files of all the garrisons in the pass, but we didn't find any records of missing weapons…"

Then, he compared the style and confirmed that it was not a Tang weapon, but a crossbow bolt from the Sui Dynasty…

His subordinates also sent people to the scene to investigate and confirm that the other party's arrangement was the Scattered Flower Crossbow Formation used by the former Sui ambush!

And most importantly, Hegan Chengji could tell from the wound that the masked female assassin had used a sword technique. It was the Startling Sword Technique that was exclusive to the assassins of the Sui Dynasty!

The most important thing is that our spies in the remnants of the previous dynasty sent us news that on the day of His Highness's assassination, an assassin arrived in Chang 'an!

From all the signs above, the culprit must be the remnants of the previous dynasty!”

He was really a remnant of the previous dynasty!

After listening to Feng Xiaoyue's analysis, Li Chengqian was a little confused.

"Why do they want to assassinate me?" Li Chengqian could not help but ask.

Feng Xiaoyue looked at Li Chengqian strangely and pondered for a few seconds before answering guiltily," Maybe…because His Highness was unlucky and happened to meet them outside the city!”

Ridiculous!

What kind of logic was this!

Li Chengqian was just about to refute Feng Xiaoyue, but he suddenly remembered the day he was assassinated, Yang Qian had warned him of a " bloody disaster ", and his face instantly collapsed…

"That Yang Qian is really a jinx!”Li Chengqian cursed in anger.

Feng Xiaoyue reminded him in a low voice," Your Highness, please be careful with your words. Priest Yang Qian is already the Nation Master of the Tang Empire!”

Although the identity of the Nation Master of the Tang Empire didn't seem to have any actual deterrence, Feng Xiaoyue knew very well that Yang Qian could meet the emperor at any time.

If he offended him, Yang Qian would casually say a few bad things in front of Li Shiming, and it was not something the Crown Prince could bear.

In particular, Yang Qian had already demonstrated his extraordinary prediction ability, and his words were especially credible.

"So what if he's the state preceptor?"

Li Chengqian angrily roared,"He can't be used by bengong, why should bengong be pleasant to him?"”

Speaking of this, Li Chengqian remembered that he wanted to buy Yang Qian's locust snack bar but failed. He was also grounded by Li Shimin for three months. He was even angrier.

Feng Xiaoyue was silent. The Crown Prince was still too young and not shrewd enough!

"You woke bengong up in the middle of the night just to say this?”

Li Chengqian held back his anger and his tone became more and more impolite.

" Your Highness, our subordinates sent a message to the organization of the remnants of the previous dynasty. It might be useful..." Feng Xiaoyue replied cautiously.

"What news?"

"Lone goose entering the capital!"

"What is that thing?"

" Lone Goose is a code name. There is a master named Lone Goose in the organization of the remnants of the previous dynasty. He will arrive in Chang 'an in a few days. There will probably be a new assassination operation..." Feng Xiaoyue said calmly.

"The remnants of the previous dynasty sent experts into the capital again. What do they want?”

Li Chengqian was shocked when he heard this." It seems that BenGong can't casually leave the palace recently…"

" Your Highness, this news was obtained by us alone. His Majesty might not know..." Feng Xiaoyue reminded him mysteriously.

Li Chengqian's expression froze slightly upon hearing this, and his gaze became subtle." Father has the Lijing Faction, the Supreme Court, the delinquents, the Thousand Bull Guards, the Golden Guards, the Black Armor Army, and other experts at his disposal. He must be more well-informed than the Eastern Palace. There's no need to specifically report such a small matter…"

At this point, Li Chengqian's slightly hideous handsome face finally revealed a carefree smile…
