Chapter 405: Dragons Have No Leader

The former squire of the military department was planted in Xiao Hanyin's hands.

Now, no one wants to follow in their footsteps.

After everyone learned that Xiao Hanyin's body was gradually recovering, they did not visit Xiao Mansion again......

They all felt that this poison failed to kill Xiao Hanyin, which was a pity!

However, they can only secretly regret this kind of thing in their hearts, after all, although Xiao Hanyin's official position is low, the power in his hands is not small.

He has the crown prince and the emperor as his backing, and no one dares to touch his brow easily.

Xiao Hanyin and Liu Qingshao are in the imperial city, one has power and the other is powerful, and they are not people they can deal with at will.

Once you fight with them, you will face countless repressions and incidents in the future......

The rumors gradually dissipated, and the emperor took the opportunity to secretly summon Xiao Hanyin.

"Your Majesty!" Xiao Hanyin appeared in the emperor's imperial study late at night.

"I came to you to find out, do you have a way to confirm that the evidence that Mo Xuanyu found was forged by King Cheng?" After the emperor saw Governor Li's mansion, he almost didn't hesitate and believed him directly.

Between Governor Li and King Cheng, he didn't have to guess to know who was lying.

A mere prefect secretly hoarded silver and weapons, but anyone with a little brain would not be easily deceived.

Mo Xuanyu completely fell into the trap of becoming a king, and he was already preconceived at the beginning because the house belonged to Governor Li's.

The reason why he reuses Xiao Hanyin is because he can stay awake no matter what the situation.

Some things seem simple, but in fact, there is a mystery hidden in them.

King Cheng used the mansion of Governor Li, the purpose of which was to find a scapegoat, so as to get rid of the situation that the emperor wanted to trap him in Jiangnan all the time.

However, he thought he was doing it very properly, but he didn't know that Xiao Hanyin saw through it.

"King Cheng is scheming, and Weichen has no way to prove it, those incriminating evidence are all fake, but the deep mountains are likely to be his nest of dead soldiers and private soldiers in captivity!" When Xiao Hanyin went to Jiangnan, King Cheng had a lot of precautions.

In this case, it is unlikely that they will find evidence.

Facts have proved that Xiao Hanyin's conjecture is correct, he really failed to let King Cheng show his feet.

However, this trip to Jiangnan was not without any gains, at least it proved that King Cheng was indeed secretly planning to seize the throne, and even secretly took on a lot of killers and dead soldiers......

"A small half of the people I sent to Jiangnan failed to escape!" After listening to Xiao Hanyin's words, the emperor ordered the first-class martial arts guards around him to go to the deep mountain to investigate the situation.

As a result, the men he sent suffered heavy casualties, and less than half of them returned alive, most of them were seriously wounded.

"Your Majesty means that you want to eradicate those people hidden in the mountains in one fell swoop?" Xiao Hanyin heard the killing intent implied in his words.

"The situation in the mountains is much more complicated than I thought, and it would be great if it could be annihilated in one fell swoop!" The emperor muttered, "However, the people I sent this time have already alarmed them, and the other party is afraid that they have already prepared!" ”

In this way, it is even more difficult for them to completely purge the people in the mountains.

After all, the terrain in that mountain is dangerous, and they have lived in it for so long, not to mention that they are familiar with the terrain, and they have set up a lot of mechanisms in it.

After people who are not familiar with the organ enter, they may be buried in it at any time, and the emperor will not say that there will be unnecessary casualties......

What he wanted was to expose the king's mind and put him to death.

"Your Majesty, if their master really becomes a king, why don't we directly put him under house arrest in the imperial city!" Xiao Hanyin knew that the emperor had a headache about this matter.

So, he immediately made a bold proposal.

"House arrest for him?" A trace of surprise crossed the emperor's eyes.

"At the moment, we have no evidence in our hands, which can prove that everything in the deep mountains is secretly manipulated by King Cheng, but as long as we find a way to control King Cheng, those crowds are leaderless, and we can break them one by one!"

Xiao Hanyin was helpless, and quickly put forward his own suggestion.

They want to get rid of Cheng Wang, which is unlikely at the moment.

The only way to do this is to find an excuse to put him under house arrest and then find a way to mess up his subordinates.

In this way, they may have the opportunity to seize the evidence of King Cheng's intention to rebel......

Cheng Wang's ambition is getting bigger and bigger, and he has secretly done so many unknown things in the mountains.

If it weren't for the clues provided by Governor Li, they were afraid that they would have been kept in the dark......

The emperor felt that Xiao Hanyin's proposal was good, but it was not easy to find a reason to become a king under house arrest.

In the end, the other party is the king with a different surname from the first emperor, and if there is no sufficient excuse, King Cheng will definitely not obey his orders.

After Xiao Hanyin learned of the emperor's troubles, he immediately proposed to let him use some of the evidence he found as an excuse to temporarily not allow King Cheng to leave the palace, nor to allow outsiders to enter to see him.

As a result, King Cheng was imprisoned in his mansion.

Even if he wanted to do something, he had to be careful in everything.

Xiao Hanyin felt that in this case, King Cheng might not be able to give it a go.

The emperor thought for a while and quickly made a decision.

The next day, the emperor directly sent someone to inform King Cheng and let him stay in the palace well, not to go out without his order, and not to contact outsiders at will.

King Cheng was caught off guard by the emperor's sudden will.

"Princess, do you know why His Majesty suddenly issued an order to put this king under house arrest?" King Cheng personally asked him to get some silver tickets and wanted to stuff them for the prince. vp

After all, the other party was the chief eunuch beside the emperor, and many officials did not dare to offend him.

"Your Majesty has found some evidence that is unfavorable to the prince, and now it is being carefully examined, so I have to wronged the prince!" The prince unceremoniously accepted the silver ticket.

"Don't be wronged, this king believes that His Majesty will be able to return this king's innocence soon!" King Cheng's eyes flashed slightly.

What he did in private, he knew better than anyone.

However, King Cheng thought that those things would not let people find evidence, so he was very calm.

"Lord, the slave will go back to the palace first!" When the prince saw that his face was the same, he offered his farewell.

He was originally here to convey the emperor's will, and now that the goal has been achieved, there is no need to continue to stay.

"Wait a minute, this king wants to add the emperor, I wonder if my father-in-law can help this king pass it on?" King Cheng knew that the emperor was putting himself under house arrest in disguise.

The reason given by the emperor is really perfunctory.

However, he had no way to disobey, after all, this was the imperial city, and the emperor was on guard against himself, even if he really did it, he wouldn't be able to take advantage of it in the slightest.

"The slave will definitely convey the meaning of the prince to His Majesty!" The prince answered.

"Come on, send the prince out!" After King Cheng got the answer, he let him go.

King Cheng waited at home for two days, but the emperor never summoned him.

He instantly guessed that the emperor was determined to isolate him from everyone this time.

This time, he returned to the imperial city because he wanted to completely shirk the guilt on himself in front of the emperor, so as to continue to cultivate obscurity.

As a result, not only did he fail to achieve his goal immediately, but he was also placed under house arrest by the emperor......

He had also been grounded by the emperor before, but at that time he was still free to see foreign visitors.

Now that the emperor has ordered to be still, someone else has come to visit him.

Most of the courtiers in the court are not good things.

As soon as they saw that King Cheng was under house arrest, they didn't dare to come to the door again.

Everyone knows that King Cheng now has the same relationship with the emperor.

Compared with King Cheng, they are naturally more willing to be loyal to the emperor.

Cheng Wang: That's the grasshopper in autumn can't grow.

He didn't even succeed in fighting for the current saint back then, let alone now.

"How can this be reasonable, the emperor's faint king!" King Cheng failed to defend himself in front of the emperor as he wished, and angrily smashed all the porcelain in the study.

"The prince is angry!" Seeing that he was furious, the henchmen immediately spoke out to persuade him.

"This king is not even qualified to go out now, how do you want me to calm my anger?" He wanted to overthrow the emperor immediately and become the master of everyone himself.

"The current situation is a bit bad, but it's not the end of the road yet!" The guard said.

"The emperor has not come up with evidence at the moment, and he can be placed under house arrest by this king, do you think he still cares about people's words?" King Cheng heard what he meant.

However, since the emperor dared to do this, he must have already thought about the consequences.

King Cheng suspected that this matter was probably Xiao Han's hidden idea, but he had no evidence, so he could only vent his anger in the mansion.

Xiao Hanyin is even more difficult than the emperor, although his power is not as strong as his own, but his strategy is outstanding, which is enough to easily shake the emperor's mind.

He can make the emperor force him to return to Jiangnan, and he can also make himself under house arrest at home, unable to contact people outside.

This idea disrupted all his arrangements, obviously he had already thought of the way back, and now he couldn't get out, everything was all in vain.

King Cheng is naturally uncomfortable and wants the emperor to take back his fate.

However, the emperor has not heard back, obviously deliberately not wanting his power to continue to grow.

King Cheng was angry, but he had no choice but to comply for the time being.

On the other side, after Xiao Hanyin went back, he mentioned it to Liu Qingshao about King Cheng's house arrest.

"If you do that, he should be able to guess!" Liu Qingshao raised her eyebrows and said.

She didn't have to guess to know that King Cheng must be gritting his teeth in the mansion at this moment and cursing them as a couple.

Since he came back, he and Xiao Hanyin have been stumbling blocks on his way to fighting for the throne, and King Cheng must have planned to eradicate them for a long time.

However, now that they are one step ahead, he can only stay in his own yard and no longer be able to continue to be a demon in secret.

Although King Cheng wanted to do something, the emperor and Xiao Hanyin were staring, and he didn't dare to have any contact with his subordinates at the moment.

"Qing Shao, in the next few days, you must let your subordinates carefully observe the situation around the imperial city, if there is a suspicious person, you must find a way to find out the details of the other party!" Xiao Hanyin said with a worried face.

"Do you suspect that the people under King Cheng secretly came to the imperial city?" Liu Qingshao said with a heavy face.

"He's under house arrest, and his men will probably be overwhelmed and want to come and save him!" Xiao Hanyin was also unsure, but he wanted to take precautions and prepare for accidents in advance.

"I will ask my subordinates to pay attention to the guests coming and going between the restaurant and the inn!" Liu Qingshao nodded.

Liu Qingshao felt that Xiao Hanyin's concerns were likely to become a reality......

A few days later, the prince suddenly received an unsigned letter.

He opened it suspiciously and read the contents of the letter, and his face sank instantly!
