Chapter 124: Murder
After Beichen Xuan came back, he immediately issued an order to send Concubine Ning Niangniang into the cold palace, and three days later she gave Bai Aya, and the Wugan Khan did it to strangle Ning Xiang alive, otherwise Long Yan would be angry and there would be a war.
After Ning Xiang received the holy decree, the whole person sat on the ground softly, and sure enough, he was like a tiger, and the Wugan Khan on the side quietly retreated, but he didn't know that his land had already supported his younger brother Qin Mu to become the Khan.
After Wugan Khan learned the news, he wanted to escape from Zitong Country overnight, but was discovered by the patrolling Bei Tingfeng and escorted back to the palace.
"Father, the son has something to do."
"Feng'er get up quickly, come here late at night, I don't know what's going on?"
"Bring it up!" Bei Tingfeng gave an order, and two soldiers walked in with a eunuch, and immediately knelt down when they saw the emperor.
The emperor was a little confused, and after understanding the ins and outs, he knew that it was Wugan Khan who wanted to escape from the palace privately, since this was the case, he let him go, he wanted to see what kind of moth Wugan Khan could make.
Wugan Khan looked unconvinced, and said: "It turns out that Zitong Kingdom is nothing more than this, the emperor did not keep his promise, and actually joined forces with Qin Mu to put me to death......"
The emperor laughed heartily, Khan, Khan, you are the first to be unkind, how can you blame me for being unrighteous, Ning Xiang is just a pawn to contain you, you don't really think that I don't know anything, right? It's just that I can't grasp the effective evidence, borrow your hand to get rid of Prime Minister Ning, and arouse the resentment of the ministers, so that it will solve the problem I am facing without any effort.
"You ......" Wugan Khan pointed at the emperor, and due to the rush of fire, a mouthful of blood spurted out and he fainted.
The palace is full of eyeliner from various palaces, these days Ling Feng is not around, Tang Shiyi always feels empty, he has done a lot for himself along the way, and the others are not very nostalgic.
A servant ran into the room of the second prince Bei Ke in a panic and informed him that Wugan Khan had been ordered by the emperor to be locked in a prison, and he was beheaded with Concubine Ning. The teacup in Beijiao's hand fell to the ground, and his anger welled up in his heart.
"Wugan, this idiot, if he wasn't greedy for beauty, how could he end up like this, it's a pity that he can't use this chess piece anymore."
Yan Bei made a killing gesture to the servant, Wu Gan knew too many things about himself, and he couldn't let him live until the day when the corpse was separated.
The killer sneaked into the prison, knocked out the guards, and came to the cell of the Dry Khan.
"We were sent by the second prince to you, don't make a noise." The man in black opened the door and walked inside.
Wugan Khan looked like a wolf and danced when he saw someone come to save him, but he would never have guessed that this cell was his burial place.
"Then let's leave quickly, take me to see the second prince, I have important information to tell him......"
The man in black frowned, why don't you say what is the matter first? I'll go back and tell the second prince that the palace is very tight, and your meeting of the second prince at this time will arouse the suspicion of others.
Wugan thought for a moment and said, "It's the eldest prince who caught me, the emperor seems to be very fond of him, and the second prince should be careful." ”
"Then let's go!" The man in black waved his hand and swaggered out of the cell.
"You...... Why? A sharp knife passed through his body, blood staining the white prison clothes, and he knelt at the door of the cell, turned to look at the man in black and asked.
The man in black sneered: "It's just that you know too much, the dead are the most loyal in keeping secrets." With that, he drew his knife and quickly left.
Bei Tingfeng led the guards to patrol, and there was no light in the cell, so he ordered someone to light a torch and walked inside, an ominous premonition swirling in his mind.
Suddenly, a guard hurriedly ran over, "Wugan Khan is dead......
"Dead?" He walked briskly towards the dry cell.
Wugan fell in a pool of blood, he carefully looked around, and there was no trace of a fight, which is enough to show that Wugan Khan was killed by an acquaintance, who could it be? As he was about to walk out of his cell, a hand grabbed his foot. Bei Tingfeng hurriedly squatted down and asked the guards to help Wugan Khan sit up.
"Who dares to be so cruel to you?" Bei Tingfeng asked.
Wugan Khan's voice was very weak, and he said tremblingly: "The second prince is ambitious, and Zitong Kingdom will stage a palace coup, hahaha......" He closed his eyes tightly in laughter.
Second brother, he actually has the intention of rebellion, but only the words of Wugan Khan are not allowed to prove it, not to mention that he has no heartbeat.
The next day, when he went to court, Bei Tingfeng truthfully explained the events of last night to the ministers. The Emperor was furious.
"In my Zitong country, there is such a ruthless person, who visits the prison at night, presumably it is a person in the palace." The emperor ordered that the matter be hosted by the three princes, Yan Nuo, and the various prefectures actively cooperated.
The second prince Bei Ke stood up, "Father, Wugan Khan was killed inexplicably, only the eldest brother knows the truth, this matter is difficult to blame, if you let the eldest brother deal with it, I am afraid it will make the ministers suspicious......" Several ministers who followed the second prince also stood up and agreed.
"Oh, then, according to Cao'er, who should be handed over to this matter?"
"I am willing to investigate the case with my eldest brother, and I also ask my father for permission."
Yan Beijiao took the initiative to ask for his life, and the emperor was not easy to be kind, after all, they were all his own sons.
The emperor thought for a moment, and the second prince was so attentive that he assisted the eldest prince in handling the case. Bei Tingfeng kept muttering in his heart, and the good things he did by himself won the favor of his father like a false feeling.
After going to the court, Bei Tingfeng took off his official uniform, changed into a purple robe, and walked towards Tang Shiyi's palace. The eldest prince is the most outstanding among the princes, and his martial arts are second only to the northern beaver.
"Auntie, Feng'er came to see you, where are you......"
Hearing that it was the voice of the eldest brother, the little princess Bei Yuewei, who was chatting with Tang Shiyi, danced happily.
Hearing that Bei Tingfeng was coming, Bei Yuewei opened the door and ran out, threw herself into Bei Tingfeng's arms, and said coquettishly: "Big brother hasn't come to play with me for a long time, it's too boring, when my aunt is not there, you don't come to me, this palace is so boring." The grievances were on his face.
Bei Tingfeng rubbed her head, "Am I not here?" I've been dizzy these days because I've been busy with the affairs of Wugan Khan, and you've heard that Wugan Khan was killed......"
"He's dead, who's going to do it." Tang Shiyi asked in a daze.
"Except for the second brother, I can't think of anyone else."
Tang Shiyi cleared her voice and asked the maid to retreat and stay outside the door. By the way, the little princess was also brought down, there is no basis for this matter, and it is indeed a little difficult for Bei Ke to intervene in the case.
Tang Shiyi saw Bei Tingfeng's distress, and gently walked over and pinched his shoulder, which can be regarded as relieving pressure for him, except for Ling Feng, Bei Tingfeng is the only one among her relatives who makes her trust, although they are elders, but they are not a few years older, when the two of them were chatting happily, Beichen Xuan pushed the door and entered.
