The Huns are gone, leaving a mess, the battlefield is full of broken arms and stumps, Li Teh covered his wounds and came to Sima Shu's side, "Your Highness Qiqi, more than half of our army's casualties are unbearable to fight again, for the sake of Your Highness's safety, please leave here quickly and go to the assembly place to join the army!" ”

"Don't rush yet! Xuan Xiu, have you figured out who your opponent is? ”

In fact, as early as the moment the Huns appeared, Sima Shu knew that it must be the family that couldn't help but do it.

"Your Highness, judging from the captured clues, this group of Huns has the support of the family behind them!"

"Hehe, Xuan Xiu, you still think too simply. Even if there are no clues, Lone is still sure that the family is behind this matter. However, sometimes the truth of the matter is not the most important thing. ”

"Your Highness, the minister doesn't understand that the truth is not the most important, what is the most important?" Li Tet didn't quite understand what Sima Shu meant.

"Hehe, the main thing is what kind of truth we need! Do you understand? ”

"Your Highness means to frame it?"

"Stupid, how can it be planted, this is just a reasonable use of the situation to get the benefits you deserve." Sima Shu couldn't help but glance at Li Te, feeling that what this guy said was too ugly.

"Yes...... But can others be willing to frame us? ”

"Humph! What if you don't want to, this matter is what the palace says is who did it, understand? Xuan Xiu, you will spread the news of Lone's assassination immediately! ”

The crown prince was assassinated in Feng Yijun! The whole court was shocked!

This is the second time that the prince has been assassinated in public, when the prince was assassinated in the capital, and the mastermind has not been found until now, so various rumors began to circulate in the Jin Dynasty under the impetus of well-intentioned people.

"Did you hear that? The prince was assassinated in Feng Yi this time, and it was those rebellious Di people who did it! ”

"What nonsense!? Obviously the Huns did it! ”

"What a Huns, it's the Di people!"

"The prince slaughtered tens of thousands of Di people in Guanzhong, and they were not angry because they bought the Huns to set up an ambush on the road that the prince must pass, preparing to kill the prince to avenge their hatred!"

"Let me tell you the inside story, it is said that the assassination of the prince this time is completely the revenge launched by those big families for the new policy five years ago."

"You just! The family will not be so boring! ”

"What nonsense? The son of the third brother of my aunt's third cousin's second sister was on an errand with the prince, and it is said that after the assassination, the prince found some evidence, but it was only because the evidence was insufficient, and the involvement was too great, so the prince did not make it public! ”

The defeat of the Huns caused panic among the families, although they were strong in their own strength, but they were not afraid of what the prince would do to them, they were afraid of the current situation. Now Sima Shu has taken the initiative but failed to trigger it, causing people all over the world to discuss it, and all kinds of rumors have seriously affected the reputation of the family.

This kind of soft knife is much more troublesome than directly looking for them, and the family is confident that the next various tricks from Sima Shu will be on the surface, but there is no way to slander this kind of public opinion, after all, it is a fact that the prince was stabbed, and anyone has the right to speculate about it, coupled with the fact that the prince is behind the scenes, causing many scholars in the world to look at the eyes of the family full of suspicion.

Who is the family? That family doesn't have a famous person in the world? What Baume & Mercier values most is nothing more than fame and face.

Wang Rong, the leader of the scholar clan from the Langya Wang clan, one of the famous "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest", is good at Qing talk, and is known for his incisive evaluation and recognition. To put it bluntly, he is a guy who likes to talk big and doesn't understand affairs.

These days, he doesn't have the face to go out to meet people, because as soon as he goes out and meets acquaintances, he will be pulled by people to ask about things related to the prince, so that he can't help but avoid people when he sees them.

Later, Wang Rong couldn't bear it anymore, and he asked Wang Dun and Wang Dao to find two cousins, these two are the rising stars of the Langya Wang family, and they are deeply valued by Wang Rong.

"Come on, come on, Chu Zhong, Mao Hong, how about tasting the new tea I specially prepared? Doesn't it taste bad? Wang Rong proudly showed off his treasured tea to Wang Dun and the others.

"Uncle's tea is of course the best, I had the pleasure of tasting it today, and it was really good!"

"Hahaha, the award has passed, my uncle came to you today because I have something to discuss with you. At present, there are many remarks that are not conducive to our Wang family, I wonder if you have a good plan? ”

"Uncle is talking about the frenzy of public opinion caused by the assassination of the prince, right?" Wang Dun said with a calm face when he heard this.

"Exactly, exactly, hey, uncle, I've been hurt by this kind of rumor lately! Walking on the street to face everyone's pointing and pointing is really not unbearable. Wang Rong couldn't help but pour bitter water.

"Alas, this Sima Xizu is really not a simple person, he successfully got rid of the shackles of the family with clever tricks, and then tried his courage in the new city for five years, and now I am afraid that he will soar to the sky with the help of the Guanzhong Rebellion." A fine light appeared in Wang Dun's eyes, to be honest, he never expected that the young prince, who used to be playful and messy, would become a political force that could not be ignored in the Great Jin Dynasty.

"Shhh In this way, the current situation was deliberately created by the prince, and its purpose was to make us mess with ourselves? Wang Rong couldn't believe it when he heard Wang Dun's words, Sima Shu had such a deep scheming.

"Uncle is exaggerating, it's not enough to mess up, but my nephew thinks, I'm afraid this is because the prince wants to get some benefits from us."

"Oh? What does this mean? ”

"Uncle, please think about it, if the prince really wants to trouble our family, I'm afraid he won't just release some rumors. The nephew thinks that the prince must know very well in his heart that behind the assassination is our family, but the prince also knows very well that even if he has conclusive evidence, there is nothing he can do with us, so he is afraid that he is not triggering it now just to negotiate with us. ”

"Chu Zhong, is it possible that the prince is bluffing?" Wang Rong was also a little confused, he didn't have his own nephew to see clearly.

"If my uncle really thinks so, I'm afraid he will underestimate the Huns."

"The Huns? Liu Yuan? Could it be that Chu Zhong thinks that there are still Huns involved in this matter? Did he get mixed up with Sima Shu? Wang Rong was taken aback, he had always thought that the Huns were just a dog of the Wang family.

"Humph! This Liu Yuan is a hero, and those people in Jinyang are afraid that they will be cheated by Liu Yuan. Uncle, please think about it, that Liu Yuanhai has traveled in my dynasty for many years, and he knows that I am very detailed. If you can successfully provoke the conflict between the prince and the family, it will be my strength that will be weakened in the end, and with Liu Yuanhai's ambition, I am afraid that he will be happy to see it. ”

"If they are not of my race, their hearts will be different! I didn't expect the lowly Hu people to dare to peep at my Heavenly Dynasty, damnable, really hateful! "Wang Rong was born noble, and he usually looked down on the Huns and Qiang people, if it weren't for Liu Yuan's some use value, he would definitely not want to have anything to do with the Huns.

"It's not a big deal, now a little bit of insight and ambition, who doesn't covet the Sima family? Otherwise, how could there be a disaster in the middle of the Di tribe? Wang Dun didn't blame the Huns much, because from the standpoint of the Huns, sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight was indeed the most beneficial choice for them.

"Okay, let's leave it alone for now, let's talk about what we should do!"

"Uncle, I'm afraid the prince is waiting for our people to negotiate with him now!"

Public opinion is raging! The family knows what is called the mouth of the people, even more than the defense of Sichuan!

Some people say that the new policy implemented by the prince greatly offended the family, and the family family was bent on revenge, and this time it was with the help of the Huns that they planned to eradicate the prince in one fell swoop, and then eliminate the new policy in the bud.

It is also said that the crown prince found evidence that King Liang had fornicated with foreign enemies, and King Liang deliberately hired the Huns to chase the killer thousands of miles to Fengyi County in order to kill people.

There are also people who claim that they came from inside sources and say that this matter was originally done by the queen, because the queen was afraid that after the crown prince made great achievements, he would take away the power of the court after returning.

Whenever it comes to this, those commoners always sigh, the prince is a good person, if it weren't for him, the common people in the new city would have a good land? Now the new city has become an ideal home in the hearts of the common people, and how many slaves and subordinates feel the charm of the new deal and secretly run to the new city.

In short, these rumors are half-true, coupled with the slow action of the imperial court, so that everyone's vision of the court and the family no longer has the previous awe, admiration, and envy, but is replaced by disdain, ridicule, and contempt.

There are even some ordinary people who can't bear the oppression of the family, throwing stones at the family's compound in the middle of the night, throwing dung at the gate and other acts of anger. In the end, the family couldn't bear it anymore, and they felt that the case of the prince's assassination must be closed as soon as possible.

This time, the prince was able to mobilize public opinion to make the family embarrassed, mainly because the power of the new policy was too great, and it has become the hope of the common people all over the world to change their own destiny. They all hoped that the prince could ascend the throne as soon as possible and implement the new policy throughout the country as soon as possible, but who knew that they did not wait for the prince to ascend the throne, but the bad news that the prince was assassinated suddenly triggered all the suppressed anger in the hearts of the common people.

In addition, the family attaches great importance to face, so they will be a little embarrassed by the monstrous public opinion. Finally, after a stalemate for half a month, Wang Yan, that is, Sima Shu's cheap father-in-law, went north to Feng Yi to negotiate with the prince on behalf of the family.

"Chen Wang Yan has seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Hey, my father-in-law is polite, hurry up and excuse me!" For the sake of his future wife, Sima Shu is not good at giving Wang Yan a look.

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness for recovering the two counties of Beidi and Feng Yi, and making such a great achievement, it is really a blessing for the community!"

"My father-in-law has won the award, I wonder what happened to my father-in-law this time?"

"Hehe, it's not a big deal, it's just ......" Wang Yan said and looked at the guards standing around him.

"You all stand down, so you can say it!" Sima Shu waved the guards away.

"The minister is here to negotiate with His Highness on behalf of the family this time."

"Okay, let's talk about your requirements!"

"As long as His Highness can calm down the public opinion in front of him, the family will have a good reward for His Highness."
