Chapter Ninety-Six: Assassination

Rongle is not calm here, and Jiangnan is not peaceful.

However, in Jiangnan, it was Helian Xuan who took the initiative to provoke it as a breakthrough.

The distance between Jiangnan and the capital is much faster by water than by land, but even if it is by water, it will take more than half a month at the earliest.

But an urgent letter from Jiangnan was sent by land, but it only took less than half a month and killed many horses.

Helian Zhao's prestige in the court is very high, and it is already very intimidating if he is not angry and arrogant on weekdays.

But today he was so angry that he even made Gao Jin read the secret letter sent by Helian Xuan.

The ministers were in an uproar, and Helian Xuan was assassinated.

And it was the local magistrate who did it, not alone.

"Great rebellion," Helian Zhao shouted angrily.

Not to mention that Helian Xuan is Helian Zhao's parent, this trip to Jiangnan, Helian Xuan is Helian Zhao's messenger, who can take the Son of Heaven to act, but now he is stabbed, what does this mean, someone wants to provoke Helian Zhao's imperial power.

Helian Zhao couldn't help but think of Rong Le's matter again, and felt aggrieved for Helian Xuan in his heart, the woman almost had an accident in the capital, and the man suffered in Jiangnan, which made Helian Zhao angry.

The most important thing is that Helian Zhao knows in his heart that whether it is the capital or Jiangnan, eighty percent of it is done by one person, and this person is still his other son.

A minister had the courage to stand up, "Your Majesty, the land south of the Yangtze River is far away from the capital, maybe there is some misunderstanding."

Helian Zhao looked at it coldly, but not only did this minister not flinch, but more ministers stood up.

"Your Majesty, not to mention that the assassination has not been confirmed, His Royal Highness King Xuan beheaded so many magistrates without authorization, it is inevitable that the people's hearts will be shaken."

"Yes, Your Majesty..."

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Xuan's move is inappropriate..."

continued to denounce Helian Xuan's behavior.

It was clearly written on the secret letter that Helian Xuan beheaded twenty-three magistrates in a row, even if Helian Zhao saw it for the first time, he was a little shocked in his heart.

However, these ministers forgot that what happened to Rong Le was now in the limelight, and they also underestimated Helian Xuan's status in Helian Zhao's heart.

Don't look at Helian Zhao's usual treatment of Helian Xuan, but it is somewhat because Helian Xuan is unwilling to get close, Helian Zhao is like this, but in his heart, Helian Xuan is not half a little worse than other princes, and this is probably only known to the prince.

However, some people have bad intentions, some people stand on Helian Xuan's side, and some ministers speak for Helian Xuan and argue with these detractors of Helian Xuan.

"Okay, I still have a note here, Lao Wu said it very clearly, the beheadings are a few people who don't matter, and the mastermind is already on the way back to the capital, as for those who have been beheaded, if they dare to provoke the imperial power, they should be conscious, you Aiqing don't say more."

It turned out that Helian Xuan had a plan for a long time, he could not only kill people, but also gag the minister's mouth, not only sent a secret letter, but also included a fold, and left the main culprit behind, no wonder he dared to act like this.

Helian Zhao's words are certain, which means that Helian Xuan beheaded twenty-three people in a row, which is not wrong, so he will not say it for the time being.

Jiangnan, Helian Xuan's shoulders were wrapped in a white cloth, and An Lu carefully changed Helian Xuan's dressing.

"Master, these people don't know what they think, they really have the guts"

An Lu said incredulously while changing the dressing.

The corners of Helian Zhao's mouth hooked, "Isn't this exactly what this king wants, otherwise it won't be in vain for this king's hard work"

An Lu still disagreed, "It's good for the master to lure them into taking the bait, but it's not worth it to be deliberately injured, if Concubine Rong knows about it at this time, she will definitely have to worry."

"Nothing"

When Helian Xuan heard this, he was indeed a little worried in his heart, this matter must not be hidden, so he wrote a letter to Rong Le and arrived in the capital with him, so that Rong Le would not be too worried.

He Sheng secretly laughed on the side, that is, Rong Le, which could make Helian Xuan's expression change.

"Master, why didn't King Hao strike a hot iron there, and handed over the number of certificates, if the emperor saw it, he would definitely not let it go."

An Lu asked suspiciously, King Hao's greed for ink in Jiangnan has many other criminal evidence, it can be said that even if King Hao is the prince, it will be difficult to escape this catastrophe.

However, Helian Xuan did not bring all the evidence back to the capital, but chose to bring some of it back.

"Hit the snake and hit seven inches, but if it is a big snake, one blow may not be successful, only if the size and strength are complete, can it be fatal," Helian Xuan said calmly.

He Sheng nodded when he heard this, "What the master said is right, in the past confrontations with King Hao, although there were victories from time to time, they failed to achieve much gain, the key is that the strength is not enough, this evidence may not make King Hao fall into the water, King Hao is King Hao after all, not an ordinary prince."

He Sheng and An Lu, in terms of views on these issues, after all, He Sheng is superior, after all, the two have different rights and responsibilities, and the level of contact is also different, so their views are different.

Helian Xuan nodded, "That's right, He Sheng is right, but this time, the harvest will not be the same as before, and the second brother of this king will not disappoint this king."

Helian Xuan smiled at the corner of his mouth, as if he had some certainty.

It was only a month later that Helian Xuan received a message that made Helian Xuan suddenly shocked, and he strengthened the idea in his heart that he was going to pull King Hao into the water.

Helian Xuan guessed that King Hao might attack Rong Le, and made many arrangements, but when something happened, Helian Xuan was still afraid, what if Rong Le's heart was worse, this baby may not be able to be saved.

As soon as he thought of Rong Le's sins and the suffering of his unborn child, the smile that had been hanging on Helian Xuan's face all the year round never existed again.

An Lu and He Sheng glanced at each other, and they were also afraid in their hearts, but at the same time, they were also glad that they were okay, otherwise Helian Xuan was only afraid of going crazy.

At this time, King Hao naturally knew that Helian Xuan must be thinking about himself.

King Hao got up early in the morning to freshen up, and the slaves and maids behind him tied up King Hao's hair.

Suddenly stopped by King Hao.

King Hao pulled a strand of hair in front of his eyes, and actually found a strand of white hair, and the anxiety in his heart rose again.

There is a prince in the capital, although King Yue is not in trouble, but he is also opposed to himself, and his brother King Yi always avoids himself, otherwise he is persuaded to be more practical, and King Duan seems to be calm, King Hao does not believe it at all, he does not have the same ambition as himself.

That's it, Helian Xuan in Jiangnan is even more uneasy, it can be said that this time the incident in Jiangnan broke out, King Hao has long been prepared, Helian Zhao will definitely be punished, but King Hao knows that with Helian Xuan, this punishment is only not simple.

"Roll"

King Hao's face was calm and he said softly.

The slaves and servants behind him looked at each other and hesitated slightly.

King Hao suddenly knocked over the bronze mirror in front of him, and his complexion also changed greatly.

Shouted, "Get out"

The people behind him hurriedly retreated, leaving King Hao with a gloomy face, not knowing what he was thinking.
