There was an assassin on the crown ceremony of the prime minister's concubine, and this matter was not a big deal, but the assassin went directly to the prince, so the emperor attached great importance to this matter, and was quite angry at that time.

"After the assassin was caught, he committed suicide by poisoning himself directly in the prison, and did not find any useful information on his body." A man dressed in black sat on a stool and spoke to the man sitting in a high seat.

Another person followed, "The assassin seems to have anticipated his capture, and the poison was taken so quickly that we didn't have time to stop it. ”

"It seems that this was premeditated, and although the clues were interrupted, we are also trying to gather other useful information." The other person was still speaking respectfully, and although he didn't find any information, he was doing his best to search.

At this time, the man sitting on the high seat slowly spoke, "Those people are coming for me, so let's see if it's the Seventh Prince or the Crown Prince." ”

Tuoba Huan looked at the strategists around him who were all his own people, discussing the matter of this assassin, and he was indeed thinking in his heart, who had the courage to attack him at the banquet.

At this time, when everyone was at a loss for discussion, a person suddenly hurriedly walked in from outside.

"The latest news came from Xinghualou." The man walked over and sat down, looked at the crowd around him before he continued to speak.

The man's face was very solemn, "The group of people who assassinated were all individual visitors on the rivers and lakes, who were specially designed to do things for people with money, there was no special organization, and all the assassins in that wave were killed." ”

"All killed......" After Tuoba Huan lowered his head and said this, he began to think about who was so ruthless.

The assassination was unsuccessful, and he directly killed all the assassins on the other side, obviously he had the strength to kill him, but now he was afraid of exposing the faction to kill him, who was so afraid of being found out by himself.

Everyone is at a loss, after all, this matter is guessed out of thin air, and everyone has suspicions, but now there is no evidence to say who did it.

"I think the Seventh Prince is most likely to win us over after all, but after being rejected, he probably has a grudge...... "One of them said at this time.

And another person directly refuted his point of view, "I don't think it's necessarily the Seventh Prince, it may be the Crown Prince, the Prince recently felt that His Royal Highness and the Seventh Prince were getting closer, maybe he would start from it." ”

"Our Highness is very low-key in his daily life, and he has not offended anyone's interests, and it is very likely that he is the crown prince and the seventh prince...... After all, the battle for the heir is about to begin......"

Another one of them also spoke at this time, the current situation is already very serious, now the crown prince is not worthy of the throne for many years, and the seventh prince has long been less pleasing to him, plus the emperor is also more partial to the seventh prince, it is estimated that it will not be long before the position of the prince will really be given to the seventh prince.

Tuoba Huan didn't speak at this time, but sat on the stool and watched the people around him discuss this matter, and his heart was deep, and he began to think about how to choose in the future.

Because the prime minister is from the prince's side, he can do it without leakage, and only the biological mother of the seventh prince, Concubine Yang, can do this kind of thing.

"Your Highness, what should we do?" One of the strategists couldn't hold back any longer and asked Tuoba Huan.

And Tuoba Huan was silent for a while, and then he said lightly: "Yang Guoquan has been smuggling smuggled salt recently, and the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau leaked the news when it was transporting. ”

"Understood." A few people around nodded, naturally understanding that Tuoba Huan meant to deal with the Seven Princes.

So after the strategists left, Tuoba Huan sat on the stool and began to think about the moment when Su Cimo blocked the sword for himself.

Because he didn't know Su Cimo's identity, Tuoba Huan felt that although Su Cimo was a man, Tuoba Huan felt as if he had a strange feeling in his heart, and he himself hadn't noticed it for the time being, and for a while he just felt that Su Cimo seemed to treat him differently.

The moment he blocked the sword for himself, Tuoba Huan felt very warm and moved in his heart, after all, he had grown up for so long, and there was only such a person who was desperately willing to give up for himself.

Because his biological mother Concubine Rou has not been favored since she was a child, she can't take care of herself very much, but she feels that Su Cimo seems to be different from others.

"I just don't know if he wants to protect me out of his heart."

Tuoba Huan began to think about what kind of attitude he should have towards Su Cimo, after all, the other party can go out to block the sword for himself, it may be that he really wants to be an ally with him, but it may also be a joke.

So suddenly I didn't know what the other party thought, and Tuoba Huan was entangled because of this matter.

In fact, every day Tuoba Huan would take advantage of the middle of the night to secretly go to the academy to take a look at Su Cimo, but he felt that his behavior made people feel suspicious, so he also deliberately restrained the number of times he went.

Su Cimo, who didn't know all this, was still normal every day, eating, resting and studying, and while burying his head in reading, he would occasionally listen to some people around him discuss the situation between the DPRK and China.

"Now the Seven Princes and the Crown Prince are on the same page, and no one will give in to each other."

"Yes, I really don't know how long this fight will last."

When he heard these two words, Su Cimo just shook his head, after all, sometimes the struggle is not something that everyone can stop if they want to, they have to fight for a result, and they will stop only if they have the possibility of victory or defeat.

Su Cimo, who continued to study, suddenly heard another bombshell news yesterday afternoon, that is, the biological mother of the Seventh Prince, the favorite concubine of Concubine Yang, Yang Guoquan, was actually smuggling smuggled salt.

After this news came, everyone was shocked, because the salt merchant industry is very profitable, but no one dares to sell salt so boldly, but now that someone really has moved this benefit, everyone has begun to speculate about Yang Guoquan's fate.

"I really don't know what this Yang Guoquan thinks, he actually dares to sell salt, it's really because his life is too long." Although Yang Baihao knew that he should not talk about the affairs of the court and politics, he saw that everyone was talking about it, and he also expressed his opinion.

Su Cimo looked up at the people around him, "Although this kind of thing is not something we should say, and it doesn't matter if the people around us are discussing it, but you shouldn't say it so loudly, right?" ”

"Hehe, I'm just talking about it." Yang Baihao scratched his head.

Su Cimo sighed, remembering that the situation in the court was so difficult now, so he said, "I'm afraid that this incident will hit the Seventh Prince's side hard. ”

After all, the Seventh Prince now wants to compete for the position of the crown prince, and if there is the slightest mistake, it may be affected, and now it is still such a big thing, and his uncle dares to do such a dangerous thing, if it is discovered, it will definitely be a big difficulty.

Because the matter of private salt is about the foundation of the country, the emperor has set up a thorough investigation of this matter, and many people are speculating about how this accident will end.

These people who are close to the Yang family spend every day in a panic, and they are especially afraid that the emperor's people will find out their heads, and if this matter is too implicated, they may sit directly.

"This matter is too coincidental, as soon as something happened to the Prime Minister's Mansion, then the Yang family had another accident, I'm afraid this matter was done by the prince." Su Cimo thought so much about his thoughts in his heart, of course this kind of thing can't be said, if he says it, I'm afraid he will be used by others.

But unexpectedly, as soon as he walked around a corridor with the book in hand, he heard someone else next to him discussing the matter.

"I guess this matter was done by the prince's side, and there was such a big fuss in the Prime Minister's Mansion before, which naturally exposed the forces of both sides, so the prince definitely needs to teach the Seventh Prince a lesson." One of them was sitting there at this time, and his head was explaining the Tao.

The man sitting next to him also nodded, "I guess too, how can it be such a coincidence?" Since there is someone behind the scenes, this matter is being manipulated. ”

"If you want me to say, the Seventh Prince should not compete for the crown prince, after all, the prince is a descendant, and he is the first to be listed as the prince, even if the prince's own means are not very good, but after all, he is the rightful prince." The man added that again.

Another person expressed his own opinion, and there was a lot of controversy about the matter of the Seven Confucius and the crown prince, and now he continued, "Although this is really important, but, the prince has been in politics for so many years, and he really hasn't made any good political achievements, so I'm afraid that the wife and prince want to bring down the prince from it." ”

Su Cimo didn't say anything after standing not far away and listening to this, this is just that the two parties only have different views, and the matter of who is the prince has nothing to do with him, and what he wants to know most is the cause of his father's death.

In the afternoon of this day, Tuoba Huan came to visit Su Cimo with a lot of supplements.

"How have you been injured lately? Seems to be a lot better? After Tuoba Huan put the gift box in his hand on the table, he glanced at the layout in Su Cimo's room.

The decoration is very clean and elegant, and there are two wildflowers missing from the bottle on the table, although they are wildflowers, but they also decorate the whole room.

Su Cimo smiled slightly, "It's completely fine, there is no need for His Highness to send something over." ”

"Since you are my savior, then I naturally want to take good care of you." Tuoba Huan shook his head disapprovingly.

After the two of them talked carefully, Tuoba Huan specially instructed you to pay more attention to safety and take more supplements on weekdays before leaving.

Looking at the back that had already gone away, Su Cimo was a little distracted, after all, the things on this table were too good for the body, and it was estimated that he would have a nosebleed after eating.
