Chapter 249: Assassination

Under the high pressure for days, up to the court and down to the capital, the people were panicked, and even the people who came out to walk were fewer.

Everyone is in danger, and they are deeply afraid of being involved in this unforeseen storm, and even their families will die without a place to be buried.

The situation in the capital is changing rapidly, and the people around him who are about to move are alert, especially those who are in the limelight in the line of the eldest prince.

After they calmed down, they thought about it carefully, and only felt that although there was the power of the eldest prince and the reason behind them, the whole thing seemed to be too smooth from the beginning.

There is always something that reveals something subtle.

The crown prince has been losing and retreating since the eldest prince pushed this matter behind his back.

In any case, the crown prince became the crown prince, and it was impossible for him to be unprepared for this kind of thing for so many years, if he couldn't control other princes, then the crown prince would never be able to sit on him.

However, some people who are as careful as a hair have noticed that Ruan Wanwan was sent to Huguo Temple.

Almost everyone in the capital knows that the crown prince and the princess have a very good relationship.

The prince has been busy all day long, and he is reluctant to go out of the study, how can he pamper other side concubines at this juncture, and let that side concubine go to show off his power in front of the crown princess.

What's more, it is rumored that the crown princess has always been intelligent, has a furrow in her chest, and is a good housekeeper.

How could she not understand the truth that the prince, the future emperor, needs to be wet with rain and dew?

If there was no acquiescence and promotion from the crown prince behind him, the crown princess would never have rushed directly into his study and questioned him.

Then this behavior led to a quarrel between the two, and finally the crown princess was sent to Huguo Temple.

The question now is, the crown princess was sent to Huguo Temple, whether this matter is a scene between the two of them, and whether it has anything to do with the current situation in the capital?

There are even some people who have a more thorough and long-term view, and they think that the prince is really prepared this time, and now he is pretending to be unprepared, and he is waiting for the opportunity.

How much does the crown princess know about the things behind all this now?

People with a heart want to go to Huguo Temple one after another, to find out Ruan Wanwan's tone, and to inquire about the situation by the way.

People who rarely appear in the Huguo Temple on weekdays have been running to the Huguo Temple frequently recently.

Since Bei Liangye had already expected this situation, he would never let it happen, and the guards outside the Huguo Temple came into play at this time.

Whenever someone wants to forcibly come to the Huguo Temple, they will block the door like a black-faced killing god, not allowing anyone to enter the Huguo Temple, and at the same time not letting anyone out.

After the eldest prince went down to court, he sat in his study to deal with affairs and think.

Although Bei Liangye kept confronting him in all aspects, he was always touching away, never lingering long, and even had no impact on his forces.

Things were going too well, and he was a little skeptical.

The feeling of luring the enemy deep lingered, so the eldest prince also went through the recent situation in his mind over and over again, trying to find out something unusual from it.

"Newspaper—" A subordinate's loud voice came from outside, interrupting the eldest prince's thoughts.

"Enter."

A man dressed in black flashed in from outside, saluted first, and then began his own retribution.

"Some people say that Bei Liangye has long been prepared for a counterattack on this matter, and he wants to spoil your big business."

"And the crown princess was sent to Huguo Temple, which is related to the situation in Beijing, and her safety is afraid that it will affect the final outcome."

After the subordinates finished reporting, they kept saluting in place, waiting for the next order from the eldest prince.

The princes slammed the table, and the tea cup jumped up from the wooden table, overturned crookedly, spilled a table of tea, and fell to the floor again, shattering, and the porcelain pieces splashed everywhere.

He was furious in his heart: "Who is the rumor that the incompetent prince can ruin the king's big thing, let me find out the source of this rumor and clean it up!" ”

"How unreasonable is that! The only one who can be in the position of prince is me! ”

Seeing that the eldest prince was angry, the subordinate hurriedly responded, and was about to withdraw, for fear that the eldest prince's anger would affect the pond fish.

The eldest prince stopped him again, only to see that he calmed down his mood a little, and repeated what his subordinates had said before.

Suddenly, he realized that the situation in the capital might have something to do with Ruan Wanwan's importance.

Something to do with that crown princess?

Although I don't know where to start, but now for the sake of the overall situation in the future, the eldest prince is unwilling to add the slightest bit, which can make Bei Liangye turn the tables and affect the possibility of the situation.

"Don't be in a hurry to investigate the origin of the rumor, first go to find out the truth of the crown princess in the Huguo Temple." The eldest prince ordered coldly, his eyes full of murderous intent.

"Forget it, just in case, just kill that woman."

The eldest prince waved his hand casually, as if other people's lives were just something that could be played with at will in his eyes.

"Yes." The subordinate quickly received the order, planning to sneak into the Huguo Temple to assassinate Ruan Wanwan late this night, and he still needs to make some thorough preparations now.

Nguyen Wanwan didn't realize that the danger was approaching.

But she knew that these days, more and more people took the opportunity to come to Huguo Temple, and for some reason, she always felt that these people were coming for herself, so she felt a little uneasy.

Ruan Wanwan only felt that her heartbeat was extremely strong today, so she planned to go to the abbot of Huguo Temple at night, wanting to listen to his explanation and sue the Buddhist scriptures to calm her heart.

The sun had set, Ruan Wanwan had dinner, got up from the room, and estimated the next hour, the abbot of Huguo Temple was about to be in the main hall.

So she took her personal maid to visit, and did not forget to let the maid extinguish the candle in the room before leaving.

What she didn't know was that just after she left, after a few moments, someone was eyeing the room.

The moon was hidden behind the dark clouds, and people walked on the road, but they were afraid that even the shadows would be mixed into the dark night.

The man's posture was as light as a swallow, and when he saw a few dodges on the spot, he jumped up to the big tree behind the house, and the branches shook only slightly, without causing any noise.

He looked carefully into Ruan Wanwan's room for a while, and it was pitch black and quiet, and there was no sound of anyone moving around at all.

He came down from the tree a few times and went out of the window, and soon entered Ruan Wanwan's room in the dark.

The quilt on the bed bulged, and he guessed that the princess was probably asleep, and there was no maid outside the room, which saved him a lot of trouble.

But after all, he was afraid of waking Ruan Wanwan, so he slowed down, like a cat, came to the bedside, raised the dagger in his hand, and stabbed the bulging quilt fiercely.

He was worried that it would not be enough, so he pricked the quilt a few times in succession, and the cotton wool of the quilt flew out.

He thought to himself, now the crown princess has no chance of surviving, and then left here quickly.
