This second prince is not usually ruthless and decisive in his actions.
This is the capital of the Xingyang Kingdom, and he dares to send people directly to take action. It can be said that he is extremely lawless.
He is also a little worried now, whether the other party will come after him.
Since he took action once, it would be logical to take action a second time and a third time.
Now that the trouble around Peng Ling has been solved, will it be his turn to solve the trouble around Peng Yu?
For Peng Kuan, isn't Chen Muyu a big trouble?
He doesn't yet have the confidence to face off against a powerful person from the Seven Star Realm.
He wasn't afraid of fighting. If he couldn't win, he would just run away, but he was afraid of being targeted by a strong person in the Seven Star Realm, like a thorn in his back. He didn't like that feeling.
Peng Yu seemed to see Chen Muyu's worry, and immediately said, "Brother Yang, don't worry too much. If nothing else happens, the Lingnan Twins will arrive in Xingyang tomorrow. By then, there will be two Seven Star Realm powerhouses in charge. We will be safe."
It should be fine."
The Lingnan Twins?
When Li Xu left, he did say that he had informed the Lingnan Masters that both of them were powerful men in the Seven Star Realm. It would indeed be much safer if such powerful men were in charge.
At the moment, Chen Muyu didn't say anything. He would not interfere with this kind of thing if he could. Since Peng Yu had already made arrangements, let him make the arrangements.

Loufu.
"Grandpa hasn't come back yet?"
There were only three people in the meeting hall: Peng Kuan, Lou Wanli and Qing Ling.
Peng Kuan's face looked a little heavy, and he seemed to be in a not-so-good mood.
"Presumably the Conferment of Zen Conference is coming soon, and the Emperor wants to leave father to discuss the details." Lou Wanli replied casually, and then said, "What happened last night was senior Qing Ling's fault?"
His eyes turned to the master of Qingling Sect.
Lou Wanli heard about the assassination of the Third Prince's Mansion right away. At that time, he felt it was incredible, "Didn't we agree to get rid of the powerful person next to Yu'er first?"
Why did he suddenly change his target without giving him a chance to breathe beforehand? It can be said that Lou Wanjiang is very angry now.
This man was someone he invited out of the mountain, but he didn't listen to his orders.
"Uncle, don't worry."
Peng Kuan waved his hand, "This matter has nothing to do with us."
"It has nothing to do with it?"
Lou Wanli looked at the two people in front of him in surprise, as if to say, you two, please don't take me for a fool.
In Xingyang City today, the only ones who have the ability and the courage to do this are you two?
As soon as this incident came out this morning, the entire government and the public were speculating that your second prince Peng Kuan must have done it, and many officials were preparing to write letters of impeachment.
Peng Kuan was very serious, "We were ready to take action against Xu Qing, but before we could take action, someone took action first. This confused me and Senior Qing Ling..."
"What?"
Lou Wanli frowned and stared at Peng Kuan for a long time, as if he wanted to see whether what Peng Kuan said was true or false, "Are you sure you are not telling lies?"
"How dare I hide anything in front of my uncle."
Peng Kuan shook his head helplessly, "Senior Qingling only agreed to help once. Naturally, I had to be cautious. After many choices, I decided to kill Xu Qing, which would benefit the most. But I haven't had time to implement it yet. I was still thinking about what to do.
Whoever led Xu Qing out of Xingyang didn't expect it to happen so suddenly last night."
??????????.??????
Hearing this, Lou Wanli was also confused.
Sitting back on his seat, he didn't feel that Peng Kuan was lying to him, and there was no need for Peng Kuan to lie to him.
"Then who do you think did it?" Lou Wanli asked after a long time.
Peng Kuan said, "I thought about it carefully, and there are only three possibilities. One is that Lao Liu sent people to do it, with the purpose of provoking a head-on conflict between Lao San and me. But this possibility is the smallest. Lao Liu sent people to do it, but this possibility is the smallest.
There are no capable people around me. I also sent people to monitor Yang, who has not left the house in the past few days..."
"Moreover, unless this person is really strong in the Seven Star Realm, it is absolutely impossible for him to have the ability to break into Pen Ling's mansion and kill Xu Qing by force."
"Secondly, the third child is directing and acting on his own, using the death of Xu Qing to stir up public opinion and provoke criticism of me by the officials in the court. If this matter is really done to me, even my father will not be able to do it.
Regardless of the opinions of the ministers, Lao San can even use the attitude of a victim to suppress me..."
"But if this is the case, the price will be too high for Lao San. If he does this, Xu Qing must really die. Otherwise, if Xu Qing is found to be alive later, the situation will be even more unfavorable for him.
.”
"Xu Qing has been with Lao San for a long time. Not only is he very powerful, but he is also a great strategist. I don't believe that Peng Ling is willing to kill him. Moreover, it seems that no one in Peng Ling's mansion has the ability to kill him.
Xu Qing."
"Thirdly, perhaps, there are forces at work that we cannot see."
When he said this, the expression on Peng Kuan's face was very solemn, "We are not the only ones who are staring at the emperor's position. The other princes may have their own ideas. With me and the third child here,
They dare not express their thoughts, so they can only hide behind their backs..."
"Um."
Listening to Peng Kuan's sane analysis, Lou Wanjiang also nodded, "No matter what the situation is, the only ones who can kill Xu Qing are those in the Seven Star Realm. I will have people check the people who have entered Xingyang City in the past few days.
Depending on the situation, there may be gains.”
"Seven Star Realm powerhouses come and go. It's not easy to sneak into Xingyang City. My uncle can check it out, but don't have too much hope." Peng Kuan said.
Lou Wanli said, "Right now, the most difficult situation is that above the court, under the deliberate guidance of the Third Party and the First Party, the ministers will definitely regard you as the number one suspect..."
"So, I need my uncle and grandpa to help me support it," Peng Kuan said.
Lou Wanli nodded, "Your grandpa and I can help you suppress some of your voices, but you also need to find a way to prove yourself. We can't bear this responsibility for nothing. The person behind this must be
We need to find him out."
"Um."
Peng Kuan said, "I am going to see my father and tell him what happened. With my father's ability, I will make a decision. A strong man from the Seven Star Realm will break into Xingyang City and kill the guest in the palace. Let him do whatever he wants."
, it’s impossible to do it perfectly, my father will definitely be able to find out who did it.”
Lou Wanli took a deep breath and turned his eyes to the Qingling Sect Master next to him, "Senior Qingling, do you have something to say?"
The leader of the Qingling Sect said, "The person who broke into the Third Prince's Mansion last night smelled a bit familiar to me, but for a while, I couldn't remember who it was!"
