Chapter 315: The Background of the Four Princes
Chapter 315: The Background of the Four Princes
After listening to Ye Yu's description, Long Wudao fell into a long silence, and the only sound left in the room was his fingers tapping on the table. It took a long time for him to speak: "Breaking the mountain, this matter ...... How do you explain it. ”
"This ......" the second prince was a little embarrassed, "Erchen...... Ignorance. ”
"Second brother, you are fully responsible for the security of the Shanshui City delegation, and even my authority as Long Xiangwei has been robbed, and now you just say that you don't know?" The third prince immediately fell into the ground, "You didn't even receive half a word of such a big event in advance?" ”
"How could I know!" The second prince's face turned red, "I really don't know, otherwise how could I not prepare at all, what does this Shanshui City delegation have to do with me?" ”
It happened suddenly, and the second prince didn't have time to discuss it with his wise man, and he didn't know what to say if he was in a hurry, so he could only defend weakly.
"Hmph, who knows, no matter what, second brother, you will always be unable to run away from this security mistake." The third prince was proud, since Long Wudao's assassination, the second prince always used security matters to squeeze him, and now he finally let him seize an opportunity, and the third prince beat the water dog mercilessly.
"You ......" The second prince was speechless, if he really talked about this matter, his responsibility really couldn't escape.
"Okay, let me stop, the representatives of Shanshui City are here, noisy and shouting, what kind of system?" The dragon has no road and has a gloomy face. The two princes immediately retracted their angry eyes and lowered their heads in unison.
"Mr. Gong, you are the representative of the City Lord's Mansion of Shanshui City, what do you know about this matter?" Long Wudao turned his gaze to Gong Fang, who pinched his chin and said: "This matter is also incomprehensible, it stands to reason that those who dare to do it against Benlong City and Shanshui City at the same time will have no other forces in the Southern Region except for the liaison station." The liaison station wants to move us, which is a matter of one sentence, and there is no need to do such a disguise. As for the other forces...... I really can't think of it. Another thing that makes me wonder is why these Assassins were able to attack us with such precision, given that the camping site was a temporary choice. ”
Long Wudao was also a little puzzled, he rubbed his temples a little tiredly and said: "This matter is confusing, and it can't be clarified for a while, Mr. Gong will go down and rest first, and this king will immediately send a message to inform Shanshui City and Tianfeng City, so that they can take precautions." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Gong Fang made a big bow and stepped back with Ye Yu.
"As for the case this time...... Long Wudao's gaze jumped on the two sons, and finally fixed on the third prince. The security of the broken mountain is not effective, and you should be held responsible, this king abolishes all your security powers, and all of them are handed over to the broken army, and you are fully responsible for investigating this case, and you must give this king a clear explanation! ”
"Sons obey orders!" The third prince was overjoyed, and immediately knelt down and said loudly, the second prince's face was gloomy, and he could only obey orders honestly.
The "attack on the Shanshui City delegation" immediately became a topic of conversation in the streets and alleys of Benlong City. Just a day later, rumors began to rage again. Among them, the spearhead pointed directly at the contradiction between Shanshui City and Benlong City, and some people even vaguely pointed out that some people in Shanshui City did not want to see the relationship between the two cities eased with the help of the Black Fraud Incident, so Zai Cai led the assassination. If you think about it carefully, if it weren't for the fact that Shanshui City had internal ghosts, how could it be possible to obtain a place to camp so accurately?
Soon, the relationship between Benlong City and Shanshui City fell into a deeper distrust, and the people of Benlong City began to harbor obvious suspicion and hostility towards Shanshui City.
"You spread this rumor again, right?" Ye Yu asked Xiao Yunfei, who nodded: "Great opportunity, how can you do it if you don't grasp it?" ”
"Then who do you think did this this time?"
Xiao Yunfei frowned, "This matter is a bit strange, it stands to reason that the third prince is a big suspect, but if it is really him, it seems to be a little too obvious." If I had to say that......"
"This assassination is not aimed at Benlong City or Shanshui City, but someone in the Shanshui City delegation!" In the second prince's mansion, the old man said the same analysis as Xiao Yunfei.
"Mr. means ......"
"This assassination must have something to do with the interior of Shanshui City, some people want to use this assassination to eradicate dissidents, in order not to expose the target, so the scope of the massacre will be expanded to the entire delegation and Long Xiangwei."
"That'...... Who are they trying to kill? ”
"Well...... His Highness should know that in this delegation, there is a person who is inextricably linked to Benlong City. The old man said thoughtfully.
The second prince raised his eyes and thought for a while, and suddenly said in shock: "Could it be ......?"
"Ye Yu, do you know who the mother of the fourth prince is?" Xiao Yunfei said suddenly, and Ye Yu shook his head.
"The mother of the four princes, is one of the three major families of Shanshui City, the water family is rich in handsome men and beautiful women, I heard that the mother of the four princes is also a famous beauty, at that time Shanshui City in order to repair relations with Benlong City, so she was married to Benlong City as a political marriage, but unfortunately not long after the birth of the four princes, she died of serious illness. And because the four princes were born with weak health, they were not loved by the Dragon King, so the Shui family of Shanshui City also broke off contact with him. ”
Ye Yu blinked in surprise, he didn't expect that there would be such a complicated background behind the four princes. Standing behind is actually one of the three major families in Shanshui City, and it is no wonder that the second prince and the third prince have to be wary of the fourth prince.
"But...... Like the Four Princes, there is no investment value, and the Shui family will not support the Four Princes just because of this relationship, right? Besides, the Shui family is in Shanshui City, and his hand can't rise to Benlong City. Ye Yu still didn't understand.
"Theoretically speaking, the four princes don't have much to do with seizing the throne, but those who have a heart can take advantage of this to carry out a double blow!" The old man said slowly: "Attacking and killing the delegation can hit His Highness and take away the little resources that His Highness has just obtained." Killing the people of the Shui family at the same time can cut off the possible connection with the four princes and block a road...... Wonderful, wonderful. ”
"Sir, I mean, this matter is the third brother'......" A wave of anger rose from the second prince's body.
"Theoretically, it is true that the three princes are the most suspicious, but ...... I always felt that something was wrong. Xiao Yunfei pressed his index finger to the center of his eyebrows, "So I released the rumors, which can be regarded as some kind of temptation of the people behind the scenes." ”
Ye Yu leaned back in his chair, the situation in Benlong City was becoming more and more incomprehensible to him. The only thing that hovered in his mind now were the eyes of the mysterious Assassin, and he swore he had seen them somewhere.
Who is this person?
