"Returning to the prince, it is Yu Xiangfeng below." Yu Xiangfeng, who was dressed in gray and black, stood up his hair, and looked like the whole person was both vicissitudes and sophisticated, which was very different from the appearance that appeared in front of people a few months ago.

Now, in those eyes, there is no longer the majestic ambition and righteous awe-inspiring light of the past, but on the contrary, some decadent, some cunning, like a city fox and mouse.

"By you?" The prince sneered, he covered the wound on his neck that had long healed, and kept laughing.

"It's just on the ground, of course not, but I don't know if the prince has ever heard of Mr. Lu, this person." Jade Xiangfeng recommended.

The prince stopped laughing and asked rhetorically:

"Who is it?"

"Back to the crown prince, you don't need to know who he is, just know that Mr. Lu can help you ascend to the throne, and at the same time, he can also make you the overlord of the Seven Kingdoms."

"Seven Kingdoms!" The prince suddenly became so excited that he almost fell off his chair.

"That's right, the prince doesn't need to be excited, as long as the prince is willing to nod and cooperate, this matter will definitely be as you wish."

Yu Xiangfeng's eyes were like a bottomless altar, and his words were like a hand stretched out in a deep pool, constantly reaching towards the prince's greed.

"Evidence, I want, evidence!"

Facing the prince's excited expression, Yu Xiangfeng said quietly: "I wonder if the prince has heard about the recent events in Ming Huaguo?" ”

"What?"

"The emperor of Minghua has not been to the court for many days, and now he is in charge of the government, but a regent with a suspicious background, no one has seen his face, but he knows that he is the orphan of the missing Yuntian County Lord, who is above Princess Haoyue, the second heir of Minghua Kingdom."

Hearing this, the prince was stunned, and Lin Shangshu next to him said what the prince was thinking.

"Back to the prince, Mr. Yu is right, the monarch of Minghua has no heirs, and he has never accepted a concubine, it is rumored that he is not a good woman, it is estimated that he does not even have an illegitimate child, if so, once Yue Hengsheng has a good person, this second heir in line will definitely be able to succeed to the throne immediately and become the new monarch of Minghua."

"But, with me, what does it have to do with it?" The prince said word for word.

He never understood what the internal affairs of Minghua Kingdom had to do with whether he could ascend to the throne?

Yu Xiangfeng raised the corners of his lips slightly, and smiled so coldly.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thinks that Minghua Kingdom has changed its monarch, and the political situation remains the same, right?"

Hearing his words, the prince nodded.

But soon, what Yu Xiangfeng said turned the whole situation around, and he gave the prince a new hope.

"If, the people of Minghua Kingdom obey him."

"What, what do you mean?"

"This regent of unknown origin can't make the people below worship at all, they suspect that this so-called 'regent' has put Yue Hengsheng under house arrest, and has sent people to assassinate him constantly, but the other party's martial arts are strong, and the guards around him are more like iron walls, so no one succeeds, and what is even more exciting is that even the Liuque Army, who swore allegiance to Yue Hengsheng, also believed that they had rebelled."

The prince was shocked, covered his face, and couldn't calm the excitement and surprise in his heart for a long time.

"Really?"

Yu Xiangfeng nodded, his voice was like a street mouse, and he whispered, "Not long ago, the Nine Princes were attacked at the Election Hunting Meeting, originally, they planned to kill Xiao Thirteen and provoke the anger of the Nine Princes, and at the same time, let the saints of their country mistakenly think that the Nine Princes actually killed each other and killed their brothers, so as to kill two birds with one stone, ruined the peace agreement between Minghua and Wan Qiong, and provoked the relationship between the saints and the Nine Princes, so that their father and son were estranged. ”

The prince lowered his eyes in disbelief.

"This matter, Mr. Lu Xian, is the plan... Scratch? The prince covered his neck and said with difficulty.

"Exactly, Mr. Lu has seen the most strategic person, he has already had the idea of unifying the Seven Kingdoms, he knows that Yue Hengsheng also has it, but unfortunately, Yue Hengsheng is still a bad move, so he has to achieve this ambition himself."

Yu Xiangfeng, who stood in front of the prince, was like a brainwashed believer, he was arrogant and a little unbeatable.

"Why, then, me?" The prince excitedly hammered the wooden handrail.

"Of course, because the crown prince is the one who is destined to belong to heaven, Xiang Feng was loyal to you in the past, and he is and will be in the future."

After that, Yu Xiangfeng knelt on the ground and made a big salute to the prince, looking at such a 'surrender to himself' look, the half-believing prince finally wavered.

However, there was one thing he wanted to figure out.

"Lu, sir, I, I want to see him."

"Of course, Xiang Feng will arrange for His Royal Highness to meet with Mr. Lu, and before that, I hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can help Mr. Lu rebel against someone."

"Who?"

"The left squire of the criminal department, the right of Chen, Lord Chen."

Yu Xiangfeng raised his eyes, and those eyes that were no longer honest were full of flattery and treachery.

*

The wind and snow were falling sharply inside the house, and the servants were outside the house, adding firewood to the earth dragon, so that the charcoal fire followed the pipes and penetrated into the house, and the heating was transmitted in, so that the whole house was warm.

"It's strange, I came here yesterday morning."

The Nine Princes craned their necks and looked out the window, not paying attention to the verses in the books at all.

"It's rare that this king has asked others to make the house warmer, and he doesn't appreciate it, it's just that this king doesn't wait."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.

"Coming?"

"Lord Wang, it's subordinate."

Seeing that it was Deputy General Lin, the smile on the face of the Nine Princes suddenly collapsed.

"It's you."

He raised the book in his hand, pretending that nothing had happened, covering his face, which made Vice General Lin wonder for a while.

"The king, the prince?"

"Say, this king asked you to follow Ahsan, what did she do today?"

Vice General Lin was a little surprised, the prince didn't ask him what he had found, but cared about the whereabouts of the little boy.

"Back to the prince, after Gongzi Ah Sang went out today, he first returned to the snow mountain, and then came to the palace at noon, drove the carriage full of lotus roots at the door, and went to the market."

"She came back today, how could this king not know." The Nine Princes put down the book slightly, stretched his neck and asked.

Vice General Lin didn't expect that the Ninth Prince's reaction would be so big, and hurriedly said: "It may be that Liusan doesn't want to disturb your rest, and it's such a trivial matter as Jiao Lotus." ”

"That's... What did she do with such a big pile of lotus roots? The Nine Princes raised their eyes and asked casually.

"She drove the carriage to the market, and at the price of a penny and a catty, the lotus root was almost sold short in half an hour." Vice General Lin said respectfully.

The pair of black eyes casually looked at the words on the book, and picked up the teacup, "How much is the market price of lotus root now?" ”

"Back to the prince, it's winter now, everything is expensive, and lotus roots sell for seventeen yuan a catty."

"In other words, this little hairy boy, holding the lotus root of this king, gave it away for nothing as if he didn't want money, which is very good and kind."

Vice General Lin looked at the expression of the Nine Princes in surprise, and his face was full of pampering.

"For the rest, she took it to a private school in the evening, a private school called back to the village puppet book."

"Hahaha..."

The man laughed with satisfaction and praised, "Yes, he knows how to honor his master, it seems that he really wants to learn something." ”

"It should be, when she sent the lotus root to the young master, the other party was embarrassed to ask for it, but just accepted the poems she wrote."

"Poof, ahem, ahem... Young Master? Ahem, ahem..."

Vice General Lin saw that the prince was coughing so much that his lungs were about to come out, so he hurriedly stepped forward and swept his back and said, "The prince? You're okay, you can't drink tea too quickly. ”

"Ahem, no, you tell this king clearly, which master did Ah Sang see and what poems did he send?" The man was surprised.

"That's it, the subordinates are clever, and they know that the prince is bound to suspect that this master is a meticulous work, so I drew his appearance and asked the prince to take a look."

The Nine Princes took the portrait handed over by Vice General Lin, looked at the man with the jade tree in the wind and his face like a crown of jade on the portrait, and complained with disgust in his eyes:

"The sharp-eared monkey has cheeks, a blue face and a white face, and no blood, and at first glance he is a person who has not eaten enough for many years and cannot even support his wife and concubine."

"Lord, that's not it, the master of this private school, the family is a well-known landlord in the main city, and his wife and concubine can still be supported..." ”

"She gave this guy the poems that this king taught her to write? A man? It is better to give it to this king. ”

"Huh?" Vice Admiral Lin didn't understand what he meant.

"What did that guy say after accepting the poem?"

"Back to the prince, the master smiled and said..."Vice General Lin took out the small note in his arms and read it accordingly: "Master Cen, there is some surprise on his face, and he praises the little boy for making rapid progress and actually being able to write." ”

"Nothing else, that guy doesn't have any other thoughts about Ahsan?"

Vice General Lin rolled his eyes and said suspiciously, "What else can he think of the little boy?" Do you need your subordinates to find out all the details of the three generations of his ancestors? ”

"Of course, in case this guy has anything... Ahem, this king is saying, what if this guy is a fine work of another country and misleads the stupid Ahsan to do bad things? The Nine Princes pretended to be selfless and said.

"That's too, it's the negligence of the subordinates, I didn't expect the master to look so magnificent, it would be a meticulous work, and the subordinates were really careless."

"Forget it this time, how did the king ask you to investigate?"

The Nine Princes raised their eagle eyes, and their expressions became serious, and Vice General Lin paused and took out the pattern drawn by the Nine Princes again.

Vice General Lin said calmly: "Back to the prince, it has been found out, these two horned hidden weapons are called 'cat's horn whirlwind ears', which are the unique weapons of the first killer." ”

"The number one killer?" The Nine Princes raised their eyes in disbelief.

"I don't know if the Nine Princes have ever heard a nursery rhyme 'Desert Xiao Xiao looks back, and the abyss of Yanmen hooks the soul,' which is the first killer, but he has disappeared from the rivers and lakes many years ago, and it is rumored that he is dead."

"He's dead? Years ago, was it a few years ago? ”

The Nine Princes nodded thoughtfully.

"Back to the prince, it was five years ago."

"Five years ago, Ah Sang was still a child, it couldn't be her..."The Nine Princes asked: "That... What about the swastika anklet? ”

"Speaking of anklets, it's not easy for subordinates to find out about this Ah San's life experience, her grandfather's name is Uncle Mao, she was adopted by Uncle Mao a few years ago, and it just so happened to be the time when the first killer disappeared, don't you say it's strange."

"So, Ahsan is not related to the old man?" The Nine Princes were surprised.

"Yes, my lord, and this Ahsan is a strange person, wearing a mask before and after, just like a deep-rooted habit."

After that, Vice General Lin took out another thing, and the Ninth Prince raised his eyes and asked, "What are you doing with the Great Inner File for this king?" ”

"Back to the prince, the anklet you want to track down is related to the secret of the Da Nei file, which has been placed in the corner by the deacon and eunuch, and has accumulated a lot of dust, if it weren't for his excellent memory, the last general wouldn't even be able to turn it over."

The face of the Nine Princes suddenly sank, how could Ah San's belongings be recorded in the Great Inner File?
