Chapter 57: The Assassination of the Heavenly Cloud Eagle
After the banquet was over, Mo Chenyu sent Tianzi Yunying back to the bureaucracy, and when he returned to the bureaucracy, Tianzi Yunying broke away from the people around him, leaving only Mo Chenyu and Su Yingxue.
Mo Chenyu seemed to know that Tianzi Yunying seemed to have something important to discuss with him, and he had guessed the specifics nine times out of ten.
"Do the Ten Princes know the main purpose of my visit this time?" Tianzi Yunying asked Mo Chenyu tentatively.
Mo Chenyu thought for a moment, still pretending to be stupid, "Brother Emperor, please speak." ”
Sure enough, as Mo Chenyu expected, what Tianzi Yunying said next made the atmosphere fall into a very embarrassing situation, "Didn't my sister never mention it to the Ten Princes?" ”
As soon as Su Yingxue heard that she was mentioned, she didn't have the heart to look around, "What's the matter?" ”
Tianzi Yunying was almost vomited blood angrily by Su Yingxue's sentence, "When I came to kiss, my brother explained my sister's affairs, and my sister didn't mention a word to the Ten Princes?" ”
Su Yingxue saw Tianzi Yunying's annoyed look, she had an idea, and said with a smile: "Oh, that matter, I mentioned it." She glanced at Mo Chenyu, meaning to call Mo Chenyu to cooperate, and by the way, she wanted to gossip.
"Then since you mentioned it, what do the ten princes think?"
Mo Chenyu frowned slightly, and then said lukewarmly: "This king has always liked to live a free and easy life, he doesn't like to be bound by power, and he has no intention of fighting for anything. ”
Su Yingxue listened inexplicably, and Tianzi Yunying's face was serious, as if she disagreed with Mo Chenyu's words.
"What's so bad about power? Which point of the Ten Princes Wen Taowu is not better than the other princes? Besides, although our Tianzi Kingdom is not as prosperous as the Apocalypse Kingdom, it is also quite powerful, if the Ten Princes have ideas, our Tianzi Kingdom will do its best to help you sit in that highest position, so that our two countries will become bigger and stronger. ”
Speaking of which, Su Yingxue understood it, and originally wanted to ask Mo Chenyu to compete for the position of prince.
"I'm afraid that this king is going to live up to the expectations of the eldest brother, it's getting late, and this king has taken the princess back to his house." Mo Chenyu didn't want to continue this topic, so he wanted to leave quickly.
Su Yingxue was still eating snacks when she was pulled away by Mo Chenyu.
"I'll give the Ten Princes time to think about it," Tianzi Yunying added without giving up.
In the Prince's Mansion, Mo Yuxiao seemed to be waiting for something in the study, looking preoccupied.
At this time, Yue Qing walked in, "The subordinates have heard their conversation clearly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince guessed correctly, the prince of Tianzi Kingdom is really persuading the ten princes to defect, it turns out that Tianzi Yingxue is not so simple to come and kiss the purpose." ”
Mo Yuxiao had a trace of anger on her face, and a hint of murder flashed in her eyes, "What a Tianzi Yunying, I want to use the power of the Apocalypse Kingdom to strengthen myself, and my wishful thinking is too loud, since they are not well-intentioned, then don't blame this prince for being polite," After speaking, he commanded something into Yue Qing's ear, and Yue Qing left in a hurry.
In the middle of the night, Tianzi Yunying suddenly woke up, and smelled a smell of smoke, he hurriedly covered his mouth and nose, quietly got up and hid, and after a while, he saw a man in black jumping out of the dark room, pulling out his sword and stabbing at the bed.
Tianzi Yunying casually picked up the treasure knife on the knife rack and slashed at the man in black, and the two fought, he was tall and mighty, and fought for a while, although the man in black stabbed his arm, but he was still no match for him, and also alarmed the officers and soldiers guarding outside, and the man in black had to give up and flee.
Not two days after coming to the Apocalypse Kingdom, he encountered an assassination, and Tianzi Yunying was also injured, and the Tianzi Kingdom delegation was dissatisfied, so they prepared to enter the palace to ask what it meant.
When Mo Chenyu learned the news, he immediately took the imperial doctor to bandage Tianzi Yunying's wounds, and ordered Qin Feng to protect him closely.
Mo Zhengfeng knew that Tianzi Yunying was stabbed, and he was very angry, and in the imperial study, Mo Chenyu was waiting to listen to the training.
"Yu'er, what are you doing? Why was the prince assassinated? ”
"Father's anger is relieved, it is the son's poor protection, so that the assassin has a chance, the son's minister must find out about this matter and give an explanation to the Tianzi State Mission."
Mo Zhengfeng held on to the armrest of the dragon chair, as if he had a headache, and waved his hand to signal Mo Chenyu to retreat.
Mo Chenyu happened to meet Mo Yuxiao on the way out of the palace, "Brother Emperor." ”
Mo Yuxiao didn't have too much expression on her face, but replied lightly, "I heard that the prince of Tianzi Kingdom was assassinated, does the tenth brother know who did it?" ”
"There are no eyebrows, can the eldest brother help the younger brother find the murderer?"
"If the tenth brother needs it, I will definitely be duty-bound," Mo Yuxiao said calmly.
"The younger brother thanked the eldest brother first, and the younger brother retired first." Mo Chenyu thought of Tianzi Yunying's words, but he didn't agree with Tianzi Yunying's words. If it was really Mo Yuxiao who sent someone to assassinate Tianzi Yunying, the motive was reasonable, but he didn't believe that Mo Yuxiao would act so recklessly, if it was exposed, the crown prince's position might not be guaranteed.
"The son knocks on his father," Mo Yuxiao came to the imperial study.
"What's the matter with Xiao'er coming to see her father?"
"Report to my father, what did my son do and want to ask my father for forgiveness?" Mo Yuxiao knelt on the ground.
Mo Zhengfeng was puzzled, "What's the matter?" ”
"Erchen ordered people to control the circulation of half of the caravans of the Apocalypse Kingdom and the Tianzi Kingdom."
"Why is that?"
"Back to my father, since Princess Tianzi married into the tenth brother, Tianzi Kingdom's financial resources have increased greatly, of which the main economic source is our Apocalypse Kingdom accounts for more than half, although the two countries are now friendly, but Erchen thinks that it is still impossible to increase the ambition of others to extinguish the prestige of our country, and it is better to gradually rank in order."
Mo Zhengfeng listened to Mo Yuxiao's words, thought for a while and said: "This matter is negligent on the part of my father, Xiao'er is very thoughtful, just do as you say, you are responsible for the caravan in the future, and the assassination of the prince of Tianzi Kingdom, what do you think, Xiao'er?" ”
"Erchen thinks that the rebels did it, and deliberately wants to provoke contradictions between the two countries."
Speaking of the rebels, Mo Zhengfeng frowned, and his heart was sour, "Why are there still rebels?" Could it be that there are still remnants of the party that have not been cleared back then? ”
"The sons are not sure, this matter has yet to be investigated, don't worry about forgetting your father, the sons will definitely find out."
After Mo Yuxiao left, Mo Zhengfeng couldn't suppress the depression in his heart, and roared angrily, "Why have so many years passed, and the remnants of the emperor's brother have not stopped." ”
Gonggong Hai was frightened, but he still had to tremble and step forward to comfort, "The Holy Lord is angry, it's just the remnant party, with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Ten Princes, the remnants will be wiped out." ”
