Chapter 502: Smug
Now that the road ahead is smooth, the prince is happy, but this person is unhappy.
Someone immediately noticed the prince's thoughts and said, "Mr. Yu, such a simple truth, His Royal Highness naturally understands, you don't need to talk much." ”
The old gentleman was used to being respected by the prince on weekdays, but at this time he was rejected, and he was not happy, and was about to refute, but he was pulled by the person kneeling next to him, and the old gentleman looked up, and then felt that the prince's expression was very different from the past.
A disdain that turns a blind eye to everything.
This is not much, the tail has already reached the sky, the old gentleman is a person who understands current affairs, and suddenly he didn't say much, but he had some different thoughts in his heart.
The prince was satisfied, and then someone else said, "Those guards we sent out?"
"A bunch of rubbish!"
Thinking of the group of guards, the prince scolded angrily.
It is unreasonable for a group of people to squat for so long and find nothing, although they killed the ten dead soldiers, it is difficult to dispel the anger in the prince's heart.
"Kill them all, not a single one will be left!"
The crown prince said, regardless of the different looks of the people below, and continued: "As for the Nanfeng Pavilion, I ordered people to follow more, even if the horse's feet were exposed, they could not be presented to the emperor. ”
Now that there are no four princes, the prince's position is even more solid, and look at the entire Jingshi to see who dares to go against him.
"Yes. ”
Immediately someone retreated and dealt with the matter, and the prince straightened his expression and said: "The news should also reach the palace, the poor father knew the destiny of heaven, and the white-haired person sent the black-haired person, no matter what the palace said, he also had to enter the palace to comfort him." ”
After saying that, he shook his head, but his face was smug.
The people behind him responded again and again, and the prince did not change his clothes, but only wore old clothes and entered the palace.
……
The suburbs of Beijing, the residence of King Jin.
The sky was dark, enveloping the entire house, Mr. Zhuang sat cross-legged on the bed, looking at the chessboard in front of him, but he couldn't play the chess pieces.
Just in case, the King of Jin has already returned to the land of Jin, which is their base camp, garrisoned by 50,000 Jin troops, no matter what happens, the King of Jin always has a chance to react.
As for him, he has been planning for King Jin for half his life, he doesn't care about life and death anymore, as long as King Jin can achieve great things, even if he dies for it now, he is willing.
This is the will of the scholar.
It's just that the matter in the capital is undecided for a day, and it is difficult for him to rest assured for a day. Playing chess pays the most attention to calmness, and at this time his mind is in a mess, how can he watch it.
"Mr. Zhuang. ”
After Mr. Zhuang sat for a long time, someone suddenly came from outside.
Mr. Zhuang's whole body became vivid and asked, "How is it?"
The man was dressed in black, tall and mighty, with tendons and flesh, but he was as docile as a sheep in front of Mr. Zhuang, and said with a smile: "Everything is in order." The bracelet was put away, Pingzhi died, and the ten dead soldiers had also died under the sword of the man in black as ordered. ”
Mr. Zhuang's face softened, nodded, and praised: "Yes! ”
Everything was so normal, as long as nothing happened, things would go as smoothly as they had expected.
The man in black became shy, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Mr. Zhuang, what about the white tea...... Said that His Highness was going to take him back to Jindi, you can take a look......"
Mr. Zhuang smiled, touched his beard and stood up from the couch.
"His role has been exhausted, and it is an honorable thing to die for His Highness! Give him to Wu Laosan, he knows what to do. ”
Wu Laosan is a good hand at handling corpses, and can not only listen to the "corpse" speak, but also let the corpse "speak".
The man in black instantly understood Mr. Zhuang's attitude, nodded and retreated.
……
It's June, but the entire Jingshi is slaughtering.
Due to the death of the four princes, the Jingwei command envoy quickly sent people to garrison all parts of the Beijing division.
The originally lively Qianqiu Festival became deserted because of this incident, and the common people all went home, and the streets were empty and there were no people, except for the officers and soldiers who searched everywhere.
The city gates have long been closed, and ordinary people are only allowed to enter and exit, and as for officials, if they want to travel, unless there is a special edict, it is the same.
This is a common practice, and in the past, whenever something big happened in Beijing, it would be like this.
Since Emperor Hui Chong ascended the throne, the country has been peaceful and peaceful, except for the rebellion of King Cheng, Jingshi has been stable as the capital of Daqi, and now such a big move is the first time in 20 years.
The death of a prince is not big or small, it depends on who it is.
At least the four princes are enough for this weight, even if he is a good man, even if Emperor Hui Chong's favor for him has gradually decreased in recent years, but with Gao Zhuo and Yuan Guifei, this honor is indispensable.
Gao Zhuo has already entered the palace, and the turmoil in Jingshi has just begun.
Sioux House.
It was getting late, and the air was as silent as death, and so was the study in Su's house.
"Heiyuki is dead?"
Su Cheng knocked on the table, looking at the lights jumping in front of him, and his unfazed voice revealed exhaustion.
"Yes. ”
Uncle Zhong nodded, "If you stab yourself in the abdomen, you will die before you have time to struggle." ”
This is the result of the inspection of the Criminal Department, generally speaking, the result of such a big matter cannot be easily disclosed to outsiders, but who made Su Cheng the son-in-law of the Chen family and trusted by the prince?
Su Cheng pinched his palm, and the green tendons on his head flared up, showing his anger and surprise.
"How did he die? Who killed him?
Uncle Zhong shook his head, "It's not clear yet. ”
Nothing was clear, things had deviated from the original assumption.
originally thought that Pingzhi would pretend to escape, wait until he was arrested and put in prison, and then confide in his relationship with the crown prince, but who would have thought that he would be killed directly without doing anything.
Who killed him so coincidentally......
Su Cheng clenched his fists and stopped talking, he was thinking carefully.
What the hell is missing......
At this time, only Uncle Zhong dared to disturb him.
"Lord Shizi. ”
Uncle Zhong said earnestly: "Lord Shizi, the Jingshi can't stay anymore, according to the old slave, we are afraid that we will be put on the throne by the King of Jin, so let's go out of the Jingshi as soon as possible and flee for our lives." Now that the four princes are dead, the next development of the situation in Beijing will not be affected by this, the goal has been achieved, and it is important to protect yourself. ”
From beginning to end, they were calculating the King of Jin, and they might as well think that they were also put on the table by the King of Jin.
Regardless of the purpose of King Jin, whether he guessed their identity or had other intentions, it doesn't matter anymore.
Stay in the green mountains, don't worry about no firewood, Jingshi is no longer a place to stay for a long time.
Su Cheng couldn't make up his mind.
If he wants him to go like this, how can he be willing.
However, before he could react, there was already a commotion outside.
The steward ran over in a panic and shouted outside the door, "Master, the commander of the Jingwei has arrived." ”
