Chu Lan is extremely proud today because he gave Chu Yan a big problem.
He wanted to see how Chu Yan could attack Wufeng Mountain without a single soldier. It would be better if he was fried in oil by a group of crazy Taoist priests from Wufeng Mountain.
The royal family has no father and son, and no close brothers. This sentence is indeed true. Now Chu Lan wants to step on Chu Yan into the ground. It is best if he is dead and does not block his way to ascend to the throne. As long as Chu Yan died, he believed that none of the remaining brothers could be his opponent.
The eldest prince has always been imprisoned. In the case of private weapons manufacturing three years ago, His Majesty was furious and dealt with those who followed him severely, which was enough to make him unable to stand up. The second prince died, and the third prince was implicated in the Zhang Zaifu case, and his power plummeted.
, leading to the fact that he now lives in seclusion, lives a low-key life, and does not appear in front of others easily. Although the fourth prince and the fifth prince have retained their power, those two are far behind him in terms of calculation. They are at most two cobblers, and together they are the same number.
, it would be very easy to defeat them one by one. Only Chu Yan has the power, the powerful An family as his backer, the support of most of the courtiers, and his own ability. The other nine princes and ten princes are his two twin brothers, so naturally
To him, he ascended to the throne, and their prince was indispensable. The other princes were young and not to be afraid of.
He was really afraid of Chu Yan.
King Jing returned to King Jing's Mansion, and everyone around him could see how happy he was today. A close aide looked at Chu Yan and hesitated to speak.
Chu Yan raised his eyebrows, "What's going on? Tell me!"
No matter what bad things happen, they cannot make him feel bad.
The staff member lowered his head and whispered, "Your Highness, the people you sent out to Mobei had something happen to them after they left the capital."
"Huh? What happened?" King Jing has not yet recovered from his good mood.
The staff member made it more clear, "He was killed."
King Jing's expression changed and he raised his voice, "What?"
The staff member looked solemn, "He was indeed killed. After leaving the capital two hundred miles north, the traces were cleaned up, but the people we responded to along the way still found clues."
King Jing gritted his teeth, "Who did it?"
The staff member shook his head, "I don't know."
It is precisely because the traces were so clean that we can tell that he was killed, but by whom he was killed is unknown.
"Is he from Chu Yan?" King Jing first guessed Chu Yan.
The staff had other ideas, "Could it be Prince Su's people?"
The king looked at him for a moment.
Su Han?
King Jing narrowed his eyes, "Does he have this ability? The people I sent are rare masters in the world. Even when my father asked me to kill An Huajin, I didn't send him out."
His good mood disappeared at this moment.
The emperor ordered him to kill An Huajin, and he sent nearly 70% of his forces out of the capital, but he was not willing to use his best trump card. He had been cultivating this trump card for many years, and it would have been very necessary if he had not won over the Zhenbei Palace.
, it is imperative that he will not send people to Mobei.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I left Beijing and walked two hundred miles north, I lost my life.
Chu Lan was on the verge of anger. He stared at his staff and asked, "Is Su Han capable? Is there a powerful master around him? Since he came to Beijing, I have been sending people to keep an eye on him. If there are masters around him, I will not
Maybe I don’t know. Even when I was being fooled by Su Han, I didn’t think he would have any big future, so I never really relaxed my surveillance on him.”
This is of course true. King Jing followed the emperor completely and was very suspicious. Even if he didn't look down on the time, he still didn't let it go completely.
When King Jing said this, his staff were also confused, "Isn't it Prince Su? I think it's too coincidental."
Who would intercept the people sent by Prince Jing's Mansion to Mobei? If Prince Su is not sincere in seeking refuge with Prince Jing, he is one of them. He pretends to be a pig to King Jing and eats the tiger. He might intercept the people sent by Prince Jing's Mansion. There are also the Seventh Prince.
Chu Yan can be regarded as one, and he also has reason to intercept the people sent by Prince Jing's Mansion. After all, Mobei Zhenbei Prince's Mansion really took refuge in Prince Jing's Mansion and supported Prince Jing to ascend the throne. So, even if he loses to Nanyang Prince's Mansion with millions
Soldiers and horses are also a big help.
At least, with the Zhenbei Palace, there is another layer of protection.
The staff member said, "His Royal Highness Seventh has been shutting himself up in his mansion and thinking about his past mistakes."
King Jing sneered, "The world can believe that Seventh Brother will think about his mistakes behind closed doors. If I really believe that he is really thinking about his mistakes behind closed doors, that would be a big mistake."
"What His Highness said makes sense." After all, the Seventh Prince is indeed very powerful.
King Jing said, "However, there is another possibility."
The staff looked at King Jing.
King Jing said, "There are people from An Huajin."
The staff was shocked, "Nearly 70% of our people were lost to Princess Anxiao. Didn't Princess Anxiao's people evacuate? Or did they follow the old Nanyang King to Beijing? In order to help the seventh prince, he killed our people
?If this is the case, then Your Highness and we will be in danger. Isn't every move under her control?"
After all, as soon as the people were sent out, they were broken.
King Jing clenched his fists and said, "Chu Yan, An Huajin, and Gu Qingyan."
The staff heard Gu Qingyan and took a breath of cold air, "Your Highness, now it's just speculation. No matter who did it, our people are indeed broken. What should we do now? Send another person to Mobei.
?"
King Jing's face turned ugly, "I will go into the palace right away and tell my father about this. Ask him. Besides me, who else can my father rely on now? He will definitely help me."
King Jing now has great confidence in the emperor.
The staff nodded, "That's what His Highness said."
King Jing immediately entered the palace. As the saying goes, a child who cries gets candy. King Jing was a child who could cry, and he was also a child who would ask his parents for help when he was wronged. After meeting the emperor, he looked bitter and said,
Weeping or not, he was very uncomfortable and angrily reported to the emperor the news that he sent someone to Mobei just two hundred miles away from the capital, and the person died. After that, he said to the emperor, "This person is currently in the hands of my son."
The most useful thing, the most useful thing is not his martial arts, but his eloquence and mind. He can turn black into white, and can turn dead into living. But now it is so broken."
The emperor's face didn't look good either, and he was two hundred miles away from the capital. This reminded him of the half of the imperial guards who were strangled by An Huajin.
He asked solemnly, "Who did it?"
King Jing shook his head, "I don't know either, but I have a few guesses. I'm not sure, so I came to my father for comment. One is Su Han, the other is Seventh Brother, the third is An Huajin, and the fourth is
Gu Qingyan."
The emperor frowned, "You also said that your people's martial arts are very high. That boy Su Han, everyone was broken when he came to Beijing. Later, no one from Mobei came to him. When he went out, he was always followed by the guards of the Su family's old house.
.Although the people guarding the Su family's old house are not weak in martial arts, if one of your masters kills you without leaving any traces, and you can't find out, it's not necessarily a problem."
King Jing nodded, "I think so too. As for Su Han, it's clear that King Zhenbei asked him to come to Beijing for training. He didn't give him many expert guards, otherwise he wouldn't have been as miserable as he was on the way to Beijing. He still relies on
The eldest aunt just saved a small life. The King of Zhenbei is also a ruthless person. In order to ensure the stability of the king in the future, the heir must be a strong person who can stand up and not become a wimp. It is also a waste to train Su Han like this.
Get out."
"Well, this is exactly the reason. I received a letter from King Zhenbei, and the letter also means this." The emperor said.
"Then if he excludes it, who will it be? Erchen thinks that the other three are all possible."
"It can't be Gu Qingyan." The emperor ruled out Gu Qingyan first.
King Jing looked at the emperor, "Why?"
"Gu Qingyan doesn't do things without reason. I misjudged his feelings for An Huajin before. He has always been a cold and ruthless person. His affairs have nothing to do with him and he never meddles in his own affairs. Even if he
He has returned to Beijing and has not shown up, but it is impossible to kill your people." The emperor analyzed, "The Gu family has never taken sides to fight for power. He is the heir trained by the Gu family, and he will not deny your people in order to intercept them.
Go to Mobei and kill him."
"Maybe he is different now than before?" King Jing thought, is he still the same Gu Qingyan? Didn't he even dare to move his father's imperial guards for An Huajin?
"Although there were many casualties among the Imperial Guards that day, few of them lost their lives." Not only did the emperor know Chu Yan very well, but he had also watched it under his own eyes for many years, so he knew it more or less. "The temperament in a person's bones is not the same.
It has changed. People like him still look down on you to do anything unless it has something to do with him. Now it has nothing to do with him."
"That's either Brother Seven or An Huajin." King Jing said.
"Well, it's possible." The emperor said, "No matter who did it between the two of them, there is no difference. They can be equated to the same person. The An family supports Chu Yan, and it seems that he came to the capital from the old Nanyang King to live in the Seventh Prince's Mansion.
It can be seen in his attitude that he has forgotten what he came to Beijing to do.”
King Jing gritted his teeth, with hatred in his heart and hatred on his face, "Father, we can't let them be arrogant anymore. It's nothing to have no sons and ministers in their eyes. They don't even have you in their eyes."
The emperor thought for a moment and said, "I have issued an imperial edict to promote your mother-in-law to the title of good noble concubine, and ask your mother-in-law to return to Mobei Zhenbei Prince's Mansion immediately to visit the family. Whether you can win the Zhenbei King to your camp depends on your mother-in-law."
The ability.
Chu Yan thought it was okay. The status of her mother-in-law was suddenly second only to the queen. Then, his status was also improved. His father sent his mother-in-law to Mobei to show his support to King Zhenbei.
In addition, the mother-in-law is from the Zhenbei Palace, so she is a member of the Zhenbei Palace. With a few combined efforts, how can the Zhenbei Palace not support him?
He immediately bowed and thanked, "My son, I thank my father."
