The words of those merchants spread very quickly in Qingzhou City.

Seeing this, several people were very satisfied, and quickly hid among the people.

Why do these people choose to spread rumors in Qingzhou City?

Because Lin Ruan is his own person in the eyes of the people of Qingzhou, for his own people, even if it is an ordinary person, the people will help some people, not to mention Lin Ruan, a person who is kind to them and the glory of the entire Qingzhou.

Lin Ruan's status in the Great Zhou, especially in the several state capitals that suffered from drought at the beginning, was very lofty, and in the eyes of the people, especially in the eyes of the people of Qingzhou, her weight as a princess was much heavier than that of the emperor.

After all, whoever is the emperor is not the emperor, but there is only one princess who protects the country.

Now that the princess of the country is in trouble, how can they sit idly by!

It's true that they are ordinary people, and they don't have much ability, but what about ten, hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands?

Soon, the entire Qingzhou City, from the officials and squires to the peddlers and pawns, all knew about these things, and many people even began to ask around whether the princess of the protector had really returned to her hometown.

Those people who were hiding in the shadows waited for the opportunity to wait for the people of the other state capitals to be restless, and then they came forward separately and instigated again, and then these people would naturally make a fuss.

As for Xiao Jingchen, they were not worried. Lin Ruan is seriously ill, and if he doesn't come forward at that time, if he comes out, they will naturally have a way to let the people transfer their anger to him.

First get rid of the hidden danger of Xiao Jingchen, and then let the common people attack the capital together, and then launch an attack on the border, when the time comes, the emperor will definitely panic.

And their real opportunity is here.

When the world comes, they will rush into Kyoto with the people, join forces with the nails hidden deep in the palace, kill the emperor and the crown prince, and then welcome the three princes back to Kyoto to take charge of the Great Zhou.

For this day, they have been dormant for a long time, since the third prince was disgusted by the emperor because of his private prison, this game of chess has already begun to be laid out under the arrangement of Liu Guifei.

It's just that they didn't expect that things would go so smoothly, and it was done through Lin Ruan's.

They have been lurking around the territory of the Great Zhou, waiting for an opportunity to cause chaos.

Originally, during the drought, they cooperated with the spies of the Yansha Kingdom to make a fuss, but as soon as they got up, they were strongly suppressed by King Shen Jun.

Since then, I have not been able to find a chance.

Because of the drought, Lin Ruan has been distributing grain to the affected areas under the banner of the imperial court, and the imperial court has also issued many regulations on tax reduction and exemption in a timely manner, so that the people have no worries.

So now is the time when the people are most supportive of the imperial court since the opening of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If someone dares to say a bad word about the court, they will immediately be drowned by the spittle of others.

So they can only lie dormant all the time, waiting for the right opportunity.

Seeing that half a year has passed, they are at a loss, and the three princes are eager, which makes them very stressed.

Finally, a few days ago, they heard that Xiao Jingchen appeared in a county town in Tongzhou, and knelt down to the Beidi Divine Doctor in public, begging the divine doctor to treat Lin Ruan.

They immediately sniffed out something unusual, so they immediately rushed to Tongzhou to inquire about the situation, and soon came to the conclusion that Lin Ruan had an incurable disease, and should have been sick for a long time.

It can't all be blamed on their ill-informed information, it's really Xiao Jingchen's secrecy work is too good, even those who have attended the wedding only know that Lin Ruan is a little unwell, and they don't know the danger.

Doctor Lu came to Da Zhou, except for the Shen family, no one else in Kyoto knew about it.

Xiao Jingchen took Lin Ruan to leave Kyoto, and the emperor also sent someone to do the aftermath. He asked Jin Yiwei to find two people who were very similar to Xiao Jingchen and Lin Ruan, and stayed in the Kyoto Princess Mansion after changing their appearance. People in Kyoto thought that after Lin Ruan got married, his body had been healed.

Therefore, except for the people who were really close to Lin Ruan, no one knew the truth, and the imperial court had been searching for the whereabouts of the three princes and their accomplices in many ways, so they didn't dare to act too openly and publicly, so the news was naturally even more closed.

But they are not stupid, after learning about Xiao Jingchen's affairs in Tongzhou, they immediately thought of a lot of things, and then the flying pigeon passed the book to Kyoto, and found that when Xiao Jingchen appeared in Tongzhou, there was also a Xiao Jingchen in Kyoto.

They immediately guessed the truth, Lin Ruan was terminally ill and difficult to treat, so Xiao Jingchen appeared in Tongzhou because he came after Doctor Lu.

After confirming the news, they went into action non-stop.

They pretended to be ordinary people and mixed with the people, and deliberately mentioned the matter of Xiao Jingchen kneeling for Doctor Lu that day, in order to incite the people. At present, the effect is very good, and it is estimated that the first step of their plan will be successfully achieved in a few days.

These people were all excitedly waiting for that day to come, but they didn't know that their every move had long been under Xiao Jingchen's control.

After the disguise, Xiao Jingchen sat on the building opposite Qingzhou City, listening to the discussions of the diners downstairs, with an indifferent expression.

After the king of Chu was arrested, this restaurant was begged by him from the emperor to open an ordinary restaurant, and the business was average, but he didn't care, because it was used for another purpose.

After using up the simple meals on the table, Xiao Jingchen asked, "Have you found out the whereabouts of the third prince?" ”

Ding Rui, who had just arrived in Qingzhou City two days ago, bent down slightly, "There are already eyebrows, it is said that someone has found a man in the area of Yongqing Mansion who is very similar to the body of the third prince." ”

Xiao Jingchen raised his eyebrows, Yongqing Mansion?

He thought of a place, so he beckoned Ding Rui to come over.

After Ding Rui listened, his face was a little surprised, but he quickly returned to normal, and respectfully hugged his fists in response.

Turning around and just about to leave, he took a few steps, then paused and turned back to look at Xiao Jingchen, "Master, can you let Doctor Lu cure him from the poison?" Although he was indeed reckless at that time, he was also really worried about the injuries of the lord and the princess. ”

Thinking of Liang Twelve, Ding Rui couldn't help but feel sympathy.

It's been four months, and the poison hasn't been cured yet. Although Lian Langzhong prescribed him medicine, without Doctor Lu's unique antidote, it could only alleviate some pain.

After four months of being tortured by poisonous pain, thinking about Ding Rui, he couldn't help but fight a cold war.

But on second thought, this is also what Liang Twelve deserves. If it weren't for his recklessness, the princess might have woken up a long time ago, and she wouldn't have the troubles she has now.

If it weren't for the pitiful pain of the thing, he wouldn't have pleaded.

Seriously, he begged for this favor, and he was quite worried that the prince would be dissatisfied.
