Chapter 341 The Last Secret

While talking, the two people looked out from behind the stone.

With a smile on his face in front, Prince Jing knew this person as Ran Liu, and the other was Lu San, a playboy in the capital. Prince Jing immediately bit his teeth. He was so familiar with these two people.

Two years ago, on the birthday of the Empress Dowager, he took 800,000 taels of silver to prepare a gift for the Empress Dowager. The gift may not be very good, but he had to meet his preferences. He went to Beijing a few months in advance to inquire about some news, but Prince Jing's mansion had no connections in Beijing. He had a sudden inspiration and thought of making friends with the playboys in Beijing, and then he met these two people.

As a result, with their help, he bought a string of night pearls for 800,000 taels of silver. It was not a night pearl at all, but an ordinary pearl.

At the birthday party, he became a laughing stock for everyone, and he almost didn't talk to the Empress Dowager and left the capital in shame.

It’s really a narrow road for enemies. Before he could settle the score with these two people, they hit him on the tip of his knife at this moment.

Prince Jing held the hilt of the sword: "It turned out to be you two." He cheated him so much money, how dare these two people appear in front of him? He must chop them up and feed them to the dog.

"Don't be anxious first," Ran Liu immediately stretched out his hand, "We were passing by, and seeing you here... I think of our friendship, so I'll remind you a few words."

"Friendship?" Prince Jing looked at the guards beside him. The guards immediately sent people to inquire around to see how many people were here.

Ran Liudao: "You can't turn your back on others? Let me remind you, do you remember the Queen Mother's birthday...?"

Prince Jing’s face looked even more ugly.

"Eight hundred thousand taels of silver..."

Prince Jing was going to instruct people around him to take down Ran Liu and Lu San, but Ran Liu's next words made him stunned.

"You used pearls as night pearls to cheat 800,000 taels from your stupid brother, but you just gave our brother a few hundred thousand taels of silver. After so many years, we didn't say anything. Isn't this a fateful friendship?" Ran Liu said, "I said, Second Master, you are quite a smart person. How can you get into this muddy water? I remember Prince Jing also valued you very much. Now you should follow Prince Jing in the palace... Why do you become a traitor? Do you know that the charge of regicide will never be clear."

Ran Liu's eyes fell on the emperor.

The emperor's face turned pale. Hiding here had exhausted his spirit, but was frightened again, and he was completely limp there.

Prince Jing's heart trembled suddenly. He stared at Ran Liu carefully, as if he wanted to see the clues on Ran Liu's face.

Did Ran Liu really recognize him as his second brother or deliberately deceive him?

Lu San pulled Ran Liu and kept pulling him backwards: "Okay, let's leave quickly after saying that. After all, he is King Jing's son, and we should escape now."

Ran Liu said, "I originally thought that the elder sister was terrible. She would harm me for wealth and glory. The entire Ran family followed her for a lifetime. Now, look... King Jing is also cruel enough to throw the charge of regicide to his second son. In the future, he only needs to kill his relatives for justice. Even if he has seven sons, he cannot be so cruel."

"Don't talk nonsense," Prince Jing said sternly, "If you kill me, no one knows this is..."

"Wake up," Ran Liudao, "Everyone has seen the King of Chu go out of the palace. You are the only one in the capital. Even if he deceives the people of the world, he cannot deceive those court officials. The court officials may not object to King Jing's lineage ascending the throne, but the person who ascended the throne must not be the traitor who killed the throne himself."

Hearing this, the emperor laughed out loud: "King Jing... in order to ascend the throne... it's really cruel. No wonder he can be the oriole."

Prince Jing's hands began to tremble. The father gave him this matter not to value him but to sacrifice him.

"Criminal Master." Someone saw that this was wrong and wanted to remind Prince Jing not to be fooled.

This sentence fell into Ran Liu's ears, but it made Ran Liu stunned: "Isn't your brother the prince? You..."

Lu San was so scared that his face pale: "You have recognized the wrong person. This is Prince Jing Wang, not the second master of Jing Wang's family."

Ran Liu finally realized the danger and stepped back step by step.

Prince Jing's guards had long blocked the way Ran Liu and Lu San. The servants of the Ran family and the Lu family pulled out the sharp blades from their waists.

"Have you heard of the success and defeat of the king?" Ran Liu's voice trembled, obviously extremely frightened. "We are kindly reminding that you will also remember our benefits when you ascend the throne in the future. Don't repay your grudges. Your father has already taken the imperial edict from the empress dowager to pick up your younger brother. Because the King of Jin and the Crown Prince are dead, the emperor is in danger and needs to adopt the bloodline to continue the throne. Whoever adopts your brothers will be the next crown prince. If you delay like this, wait to visit the new king when you enter the palace!"

Prince Jing suddenly remembered that these days, his father and second brother always planned in the study. Could it be that this is the case?

It is also very simple to know whether what Ran Liu said is true or false. Now I will chase after them to see if there is a real imperial edict in their hands. If everything is true, he will have to control his younger brothers and let his father have no choice but to push him to the throne.

Without further ado, Prince Jing never had the intention to get involved with Ran Liu anymore, and ordered his servants to lead the emperor to run towards the city gate.

Lu San was almost sank on the ground. If it weren't for the rush, Prince Jing would have killed them.

"Aren't you afraid?" Lu San looked at Ran Liu. Since he met Ji Yanran, Ran Liu seemed to have become even more crazy.

"I'm afraid that Wu Chao will fall into their hands, it's even more terrible," Ran Liu spit out the date pit in his mouth. "Yanran is right. There is no need for Li Yue here. Li Yong. Because these people have no real skills and only have a lot of conspiracies, it's enough for us to do it."

Lu San still couldn't believe that just these men could really win?

If it weren't for Grandma Li San and Ran Liu going crazy, he would be crazy.

"After the prince is left, we can go into the palace," Ran Liuzhen shouted, "Brothers, the capital is our territory, and it's time for us to show our skills."

...

King Jing slowly frowned. His son had not arrived for a long time, which made him feel a bad premonition. Could something have happened?

"Prince, someone... broke into the palace."

King Jing couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Could it be that Li Yue killed someone and shot him back? Even if that's true, he sent enough people to stop Li Yue for a while and would never be so fast.

"Who is it?" King Jing immediately asked.

"It's... the Lin family gathered some guards and obtained military funds from the Ministry of War..."

King Jing's heart was beating wildly, but the more he heard, the more he felt the more wrong. The Lin family gathered people and robbed military funds, but didn't they follow Ji's family? Otherwise, how could Li Yue chase out of the palace?

While thinking about it, the sound of fighting came not far away.

King Jing clenched his hand tightly. How could it be so fast? Those people seemed to emerge out of thin air.

"Where is Lee Ye? Is he back too?"

"No," a crisp voice sounded, "The King of Chu wants to borrow troops and cannot return to Beijing for a while."

King Jing almost subconsciously said, "What kind of soldiers do you borrow?" He raised his head and looked for it, and saw a few people walking over with a woman who was Ji Yanran.

"Of course it is your soldiers who refuse to fight for the country," Ji Yanran smiled, "You think you are trying to chase and kill Li Yue and King Jin. In fact, Li Yue is hunting. They will be captured by Li Yue and incorporated into his command. From then on, there is nothing to do with Prince Jing's mansion. We also want to thank King Jing for bringing the army here in just half a month and going on a battle with Li Yue."

King Jing was extremely surprised: "You, you dare to exclaim here."
