Chapter 54: The knife hangs around the neck

There were two murders in the capital in less than a month, and the rumors of the two cases are becoming more and more interesting. first said that the abandoned garden where the corpse was hidden was haunted every night, and then said that Yang Zhao, who had beaten people to death, was now haunted by ghosts and hid in the room, and he didn't even dare to go out of the door.

Pei Huai was forced to be anxious by these two cases, and the prince naturally didn't have anything good to do. The matter of the household department has not been dealt with yet, but I didn't expect the military department to also come to participate in the peace.

These two things alone have already made the prince scramble. But the only thing to be thankful for at the moment is that Jing Zhaoyin's side can't come up with evidence to prove that the broken garden is in Zhang Qin's name.

It's just that Tang and the others, who were originally in Shangshu Mansion, heard that he was holding an account book about the garden in his hand, and he himself disappeared after being released from Jing Zhaoyin.

The prince sent his forces to search for it several times, but there was no whereabouts. Even the Shouwang Mansion also sent someone to secretly investigate, but there was no trace. Tang and the others seemed to have evaporated from the world, disappearing without a trace.

And the happiest one at the moment is still King Shou. In the case of hiding the corpse in the abandoned garden, his own people have no share, and there is no idiot like Yang Zhao under his command. Life passed comfortably, just waiting to see the prince's jokes.

But now he is just as worried about the whereabouts of Tang and the others as the prince, after all, Tang and the others have an account book in their hands that is related to the details of the expenditure of the abandoned garden. If this account book falls into his own hands, won't he be able to control the prince to death in one step?

Just thinking about it, the servants in the mansion suddenly came to tell me that Xie Yaoguang was asking to see him outside the mansion.

"Don't get someone in yet." King Shou jumped up from the chair and clapped his hands excitedly, and then paused: "No, no, no, this king will go to greet her in person." ”

Xie Yaoguang smiled and watched as he walked quickly, and a trace of ridicule slipped into the eyes of King Shou, who was full of spring breeze.

Shouwang now looks at Shouwang like looking at a baby. Since Xie Yaoguang defected to himself, this day can be said to be more and more smooth, the prince has had accidents one after another, and his life is getting more and more comfortable day by day.

"Congratulations, Your Highness, your wish has been fulfilled." Sitting down on his knees, Xie Yaoguang smiled while holding tea.

King Shou waved his hand and motioned for the maid to retreat, leaving the two of them alone: "It's not thanks to you, Mr. Xie." ”

"It's just a chance encounter." Xie Yaoguang raised his lips slightly, and said with his eyes: "It's just a pity that there is no progress in the Hubu Shangshu." ”

"Not really. Now that Tang and the others have disappeared, it's a pity that the account book in his hand is really a pity. King Shou raised his forehead and sighed.

That book matters.

Books? Xie Yaoguang suppressed a smile in his eyes. Naturally, she knew where the books were. As soon as Tang and the others were released by Jing Zhaoyin that day, her people quickly kidnapped Tang and the others and locked them in a secret prison to wait for processing.

took the time to look for Tang and the others once, and under the coercion and temptation, Tang and the others had already told themselves the whereabouts of the account book. And I went to look for it, and the things recorded in that account book were really interesting. For King Shou, it can basically be regarded as a weapon for him to seriously injure the prince.

It's a pity that Xie Yaoguang won't hand over the account book to King Shou, it has its own role.

"Oh? His Highness wants the book...... I will send someone to find out the whereabouts of Tang and the others" Xie Yaoguang twitched his sleeves with his fingertips, and smiled on his face: "I can still talk about the rivers and lakes in the capital." ”

King Shou was overjoyed when he heard this. He knew that the Xie family was not only wealthy, but he had also heard that the Xie family was also quite powerful in the rivers and lakes, and had good relations with many sects in the rivers and lakes.

Being able to have Xie Yaoguang go to check the whereabouts of Tang and the others for him saved him a lot of trouble. The benefits of this Xie Yaoguang are really not small, and the criticism of Hanshan Temple does not deceive me.

"This king has recommended King Ding to his father today, and he will preside over the case of hiding the corpse in the abandoned garden. At present, it seems that it is better to hand over Yang Zhao's matter to King Ding. What do you think, sir?" King Shou sighed worriedly: "What this king is most worried about now is whether King Ding will accept this favor. ”

"Why not? His Royal Highness helped Concubine Rong in this matter, and he already owes you a favor. What's more, with my shallow knowledge, why don't you agree to such things that are beneficial to him? Xie Yaoguang tilted his lips and smiled.

King Shou's face was embarrassed, he exhaled helplessly, and sighed: "Having said that, Mr. Xie ...... You don't know Linchen's stinky temper. I'm afraid I'm going to mess things up. ”

The gentle gaze swept Shouwang and slowly pulled his lips. She didn't know what King Shou was thinking, King Shou wanted his own people to intervene in this case, so he just took this opportunity to spy on Ye Linchen and let him use it for himself, so as to achieve his goal of controlling the six departments.

But how could she let King Shou easily get his wish.

"Then why doesn't Your Highness help King Ding?" Xie Yaoguang frowned, and smiled: "King Ding is good at marching and fighting, but for the government, he is a beginner. Wouldn't you be grateful if you helped him at this time? Take a step back and say that if something goes wrong with the trial process, Your Majesty will not blame you. ”

Speaking of this, King Shou has suddenly penetrated. Although he has little contact with the brother of King Ding, he still knows a little bit about his temper, and he is indeed an upright temper.

Because of this, even his father didn't like him very much. However, there is one thing Xie Yaoguang said is very right, so that people who are not familiar with the government are often best controlled.

As long as his own people knock on the side, why worry about the household department and the second military department will not change hands. What's more, Linchen is indeed an extremely useful military force, and it is also a good choice to win over Ye Linchen if he can't win over the county lord of Jingning.

Wen Run, with a smile, took in the expression of King Shou. Knowing that he was now loose, a very faint smile couldn't help but rise on his lips. King Shou still pays too much attention to power.

"This king can have Mr. Xie, why worry about not being able to achieve great things." Shou Wang caught a glimpse of Xie Yaoguang's gentle gaze at the end of his eyes, and couldn't help but feel that his breath was stagnant, and he glanced at her sideways several times.

In addition to being smart and amazing, this Xie Yaoguang is also a beauty.

"Then Yaoguang wishes Your Highness that you will achieve your wish as soon as possible." Xie Yao's pupils half concealed the sharpness that flashed in his eyes, and he tilted his lips and smiled.

Shouwang Xie Yaoguang was naturally in a good mood when he mentioned this, just waiting to see the prince lose all the plates? Originally, I wanted to keep Xie Yaoguang down for dinner, and by the way, apologize for what happened last time.

Before he could open his mouth, he saw Xie Yaoguang showing fatigue, so he dispelled this idea at the moment, and sent someone out very politely in person.

The moment he stepped into the carriage with his skirt twisted, Xie Yaoguang glanced at King Shou who was standing at the door of the house. Slowly hooked his lips and revealed a meaningful smile.

Which is more frightening than a knife hanging over the head?

King Shou couldn't help but wonder when he saw Xie Yaoguang looking at him with a cold face. When he shook his head, the coldness disappeared, and it was replaced by a soft smile, as if the coldness of that moment just now was just an illusion of his own trance.
