Chapter 118: Reactions from all sides
No one responded to Ying Xiong's words, as if no one was here at all.
However, Ying Xiong knows that there must be someone here!
There is no wind, but there is air flowing.
Ying Xiong's hair suddenly stood on end......
He felt a deep murderous intent......
"You, what do you want to do? I tell you, I am the national teacher's person, you can't kill me, otherwise the national teacher will not let you go!"
A light sneer sounded in Ying Xiong's ears.
Ying Xiong turned back suddenly, only to see a man wrapped in black cloth walking out of the carriage.
"Y-Who are you? Why are you in the carriage?"
After asking this, Ying Xiong understood that this person must be the same as those people outside, all of them were assassins sent by the second prince to assassinate the crown prince, and he had already lurked in the carriage at some point.
"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I heard everything you said before you killed the prince!"
After the black-clothed assassin finished speaking, he directly put the knife on Ying Xiong's neck.
Ying Xiong wanted to escape, but the knife of the black-clothed assassin followed him like a shadow, always close to his neck, if it wasn't for wanting to keep him alive, Ying Xiong didn't know how many times he had died.
This is the power gap between the second prince and the crown prince!
The assassins casually discharged by the second prince crushed the prince's guards!
If it weren't for the fact that the prince was really useless, it would not be Ying Xiong's turn to be the commander of the guards.
"Stop struggling, come with me!"
The black-clothed assassin stretched out his hand a little, and Ying Xiong rolled his eyes and fainted.
"Take him to the dark room of the Second Prince's Mansion and interrogate him properly!"
After the explanation, the second prince returned to the carriage and made another knife in the heart of the prince in a pool of blood.
After that, he hid himself again and walked away.
When the bad news entered the palace, the second prince was holding a medicine bowl in front of Long Jingtian's bed to express his filial piety.
After the little eunuch whispered the news to An Le in his ear, An Le was always uneasy, and he didn't know how to tell Long Jingtian the news.
But he couldn't help but say it!
"Grandpa An, what's wrong with you? Is there any bad news?"
The second prince asked with a smile.
An Le suddenly felt a cold wind blowing behind his neck.
In his heart, he had already guessed that the matter of the crown prince was the so-called of the second prince, and at this time, looking at the second prince, he was more convinced of his own guess.
Long Jingtian opened his eyes and saw that there was only the second prince next to the bed, and immediately frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" What about Feng Wu? I'm sick and dying, can't he even come over to serve the sick?"
An Le fell to his knees all of a sudden.
Long Jingtian had a bad premonition in his heart.
"What are you doing on your knees? I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about the prince!"
An Le said with a sad face: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you have to hold on, the crown prince, he was assassinated!"
"What?"
Although Long Jingtian had known that there would be this for a long time, when he really heard the news, he couldn't help but feel chills all over his body.
Although Long Jingtian was born in the royal family, he was the only son of the former emperor and had not experienced the cruelty of seizing the heir, because he didn't know that his sons had reached the point of life and death in private.
When he agreed to Feng Wu and Qi Huan's plan at that time, he was also skeptical, but he didn't expect it to be ...... so soon
"Who is it? Who did it?"
Long Jingtian's eyes stared sharply at the second prince Long Pan.
The second prince Long Pan looked back without showing weakness.
"You ......"
"Father, but the emperor is not well, do you want to call the imperial doctor?"
Long Jingtian didn't say the doubt in his heart in the end, he looked at Long Pan and was speechless for a while.
"I'm tired, you go down!" After Long Jingtian finished speaking, he closed his eyes and stopped looking at Long Pan, he was afraid that he would not be able to help but reprimand Long Pan.
It's not yet time, and he has to be patient!
"Yes, the father has a good rest, and the son has retired first!"
Long Pan walked out of Long Jingtian's bedroom with brisk steps, he did not leave the palace, but went to the palace of the concubine.
The concubine was anxiously waiting for the news, and when she saw Long Pan coming in, her eyes lit up.
"Pan'er, how's it going?
Long Pan smiled proudly: "It's very smooth, not only did I get rid of Feng Wu, but even my father and emperor, I don't think it will last long." ”
The concubine let out a long sigh of relief.
"That's great, so that you will be able to succeed the monarch soon after you become the crown prince!"
Long Pan lay on the table, fiddling with the lid of the tea cup with his fingers.
"Mother, I'm thinking, should the two dragons solve it together, after all, he is also the son of his father, in case ...... , I think it's better to never have any future troubles!"
The concubine thought for a while and said: "It's better not to do it, Concubine Shu has also helped the palace a lot over the years, and besides, the third prince and Concubine Shu have no ambitions, besides, the relationship between Concubine Shu and the national teacher is better, if you kill the third prince, Concubine Shu will definitely be separated from us, and we should not make any more extraneous branches." ”
Long Pan pulled the corners of his mouth.
"Alright then, let's leave him alone for now. ”
The implication is that after the monarch he succeeds in the future, he will still have to remove the three princes.
The second prince and the concubine stopped the topic and moved on to something else.
No one found out that a little palace maid in the palace of the concubine quietly left the palace and quietly went to the palace where the concubine lived.
Concubine Shu sat under the porch, drinking tea and eating snacks, and looked at her son who was kicking Keju in the garden with a smile.
The third prince, Long Chi, just turned six years old this year.
Ever since Concubine Shu began to doubt Long Chi's appearance, she deliberately reduced Long Chi's chances of appearing in front of Long Jingtian.
Her behavior made the concubine think that she didn't want her son to compete with Long Pan for favor, so she was more satisfied with her behavior and trusted her more.
Therefore, when Concubine Shu begged the concubine to help the third prince live in her palace, although the concubine thought it was a little unruly, she also acquiesced.
However, when the third prince is seven years old, he will have to move out and go to a special residence for the prince.
As if knowing that there is not much time between mother and son, Concubine Shu likes to watch the third prince bow in her palace very much, although she has damaged a lot of flowers and plants, but it has made this palace more popular.
The big palace maid Peony, who was standing behind Concubine Shu, saw a figure flashing in front of the palace gate, and quietly retreated.
After a while, Peony was back behind Concubine Shu.
"Chi'er, you slow down, be careful of wrestling!" Concubine Shu reminded the third prince with a smile, acting like a mother.
However, after the third prince ran out of the range of ten meters in front of her, her eyes suddenly turned cold, she picked up the teacup and dipped her lower lip, and said, "What's the news?"
"Hui Niangniang, the crown prince has been assassinated, and after the monarch knows the news, he is also a little bad!" Peony replied with a bow.
Concubine Shu's head, these are all expected by her.
"But...... Seeing Concubine Shu's frowning, Peony hurriedly finished her words once: "The prince seems to have murderous intentions towards His Royal Highness, but fortunately, the concubine Niangniang stopped him!"
