Chapter 284: Seriously Injured
The second prince needs to divert Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin's attention and not let them know what he has done recently.
Otherwise, with their temperament, they will definitely find a way to make his business unsustainable.
However, the second prince never expected that his abnormality would soon be noticed by Xiao Hanyin.
All along, Xiao Hanyin has sent people to secretly pay attention to his every move, in order to find the evidence of his guilt as soon as possible and make him completely lose the power in his hands.
The second prince is a dangerous person, as long as he is still in the court, Xiao Hanyin can't feel at ease.
After Xiao Hanyin found out that his behavior was abnormal, he arranged for his subordinates to secretly investigate.
As a result, a few days later, Xiao Hanyin's people suddenly reported bad news to him.
"Master, my subordinates have received news that several people you sent to follow the second prince are all dead!" Xiao Hanyin's subordinates said.
"What's going on, have you found out how they died?" His eyes froze.
"We've checked the corpses, all of them are fatal with a single sword, and the people who killed them have martial arts above them!" After the incident, his companions saw the body.
"Have you found out what the second prince is doing?" Don't think about it, those people must have been killed by him.
"Please forgive the master, the subordinates have not been able to find anything, and the person sent out by the second prince is now gone!" His men knelt on the ground and said.
"Get up, I have my own arrangements for this matter, you have a way to keep an eye on the second prince, don't let him notice!" Xiao Hanyin's subordinates personally trained were not weak in martial arts, but now they are all dead.
If he does not give an account to the dead, how will he continue to rule them in the future?
"Yes!" He was grateful to Xiao Hanyin for not being held accountable, and he felt very guilty.
If he hadn't arranged everything, his brother wouldn't have died.
Xiao Hanyin is a good master, he often thinks about them on weekdays, even if there is danger, he is the one who rushes ahead.
Those people are gone this time, in fact, they are not the only ones who are sad, there is also Xiao Hanyin!
He has a lot of responsibility on him, and everyone has always been loyal to him, and he is the saddest thing after this incident......
After Xiao Hanyin arranged everything, he immediately entered the palace and found the emperor and the crown prince.
He felt that the crown prince and the emperor should know about such an important matter.
"What happened with such an embarrassed face?" When the prince saw him, an ominous premonition surged in his heart.
"Weichen see Your Majesty, see His Royal Highness the Prince!" Xiao Hanyin knelt down on one knee and saluted.
"Flat!" The emperor glanced at him and said, "Say, what happened to me in such a hurry?" ”
"Your Majesty, Weichen found that the second prince's behavior was a little strange two days ago, so he sent someone to investigate, but today he received news from his subordinates that the people who went to investigate the matter were all dead, and some of the second prince's subordinates suddenly disappeared!"
Xiao Hanyin thought about it, and it was very tricky for him to deal with this matter.
After all, the second prince is a nobleman, and he is just a five-grade petty official in the military department, and no matter what he does, he is restricted by his identity.
Therefore, Xiao Hanyin decided to hand over the matter directly to the emperor to decide, anyway, that person was his son, and the emperor had the final say on what to do.
"Do you have any clues to the incriminating evidence I asked you to find?" The emperor was very disappointed with the actions of the second prince.
For a long time, he hated his brother's previous open and secret fights, and the things that the second prince did touched his bottom line again and again, but he still didn't change his life.
In fact, the emperor gave him a chance, but unfortunately the second prince squandered it, and the last bit of father-son love between the emperor and him.
In the royal family, feelings have always been very weak, if it weren't for the fact that he kept his own blood on him, the emperor would have driven him to guard the imperial mausoleum.
The ambition of the second prince was revealed very early, but he did make a lot of contributions to the imperial court.
This is also the reason why the emperor is willing to erase the past and give him a chance, but he didn't cherish it.
"Weichen has not found out for the time being, the evidence of the second prince's crime!" If he had found evidence, he would have exposed the second prince a long time ago.
Xiao Hanyin never thought that he would leave a way back for the second prince.
However, he was too cunning, and Xiao Hanyin failed to find the evidence of his intention to murder the prince and their husband and wife several times.
"I order you to find evidence at all costs, as long as you can find evidence that he intends to compete with the crown prince for the throne, I will take away his identity and title!" The emperor was really angry.
Since the second prince has repeatedly taught him, there is no need to give him another chance, and now his health is not as good as a year.
He didn't know how many years he could sit on this dragon chair, originally he still wanted to keep the second prince and let him be the whetstone of the prince.
However, now that he has changed his mind, the ambitious prince cannot be tolerated.
If he turns a blind eye, he could let innocent people die at any time......
"Wechen obeys!" After Xiao Hanyin heard the emperor's order, a dark light crossed his eyes.
This time, the emperor obviously made a decision to abolish the second prince, and soon his good days will come to an end.
If he had been low-key since he was released, he would not have gone to the point of being hated by people at all.
It's a pity that he didn't cherish the opportunity that the emperor gave him to mend his ways.
The second prince wants the throne wholeheartedly, but there are some things that do not belong to him, so it is useless to fight for them......
After Xiao Hanyin left the palace, he immediately arranged his subordinates to find the second prince's subordinates.
He felt that if he could find those people, he might be able to get some clues from them.
The second prince killed a lot of his subordinates this time, and he will definitely settle this blood debt with the other party in person...... 168
Five days later, someone suddenly appeared to assassinate the second prince.
At that time, the second prince was defenseless and was directly stabbed by the other party.
Although his men and guards did their best to protect the second prince, he was still seriously injured.
In order to protect the second prince from those people, many of his subordinates died because of this.
When Xiao Hanyin sent people in the past saw this situation, they also helplessly helped the second prince.
He is still a prince at the moment, and if he dies like this, they will not escape the blame.
Despite the help of Xiao Hanyin's men, the casualties this time were still heavy.
Most of the people who went to help also lost their lives.
However, a few secret guards with strong martial arts escaped by luck, although those people were fierce, but they were also flesh and blood.
They took advantage of each other's exhaustion to find a way to escape......
Xiao Hanyin looked at his subordinates who were covered in injuries and immediately called a doctor to treat them.
"Is it the hand of the second prince?" Xiao Hanyin saw that several people were seriously injured, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"No, this time we are to save the second prince, so we will almost die!" One of the subordinates who was slightly injured has persevered until now because he has the wound medicine on his body.
The other two men fainted as soon as they returned to the courtyard.
"Did someone assassinate the second prince?" Xiao Hanyin frowned.
"Yes, we have been staring at the second prince according to the master's instructions, and we wanted to find evidence of his ambition and intention to usurp the throne, but we found that a group of people who were like crazy people and had no reason suddenly attacked the second prince, and seeing that he was injured, we were forced to take action in desperation......"
He told Xiao Hanyin everything about the situation at that time.
"How many people are there?" He knew his martial arts very well, and ordinary killers couldn't help them at all.
Even the top masters may not be able to directly kill him and the second prince's many subordinates.
Especially the people around the second prince, but they are all masters of Ouchi, and ordinary people can't beat them at all.
"There are only more than 20 people on the other side, although the martial arts are not bad, but they are not top masters!" After the doctor bandaged his wound, he told Xiao Hanyin in detail about the situation at that time.
"In this case, why are you so embarrassed, and why did Wang Er lose their lives?" Xiao Hanyin couldn't figure it out.
"Those people are like soulless puppets, even if we stab them, they won't stop, as if they don't feel pain at all, frantically attacking the second prince!" When his subordinates remembered the situation at that time, they were very puzzled.
Who did the second prince offend and want to cause this catastrophe.
"No pain?" Xiao Hanyin's eyes narrowed slightly, it was the first time he had heard of such a person.
People are flesh and blood, and if they are injured, how can they not hurt.
It's strange that those people can continue to attack even after they are injured.
Once a person is injured, his physical strength and strength will slowly decrease, and he will even be restrained quickly.
As a result, those people were still able to attack them bravely, indicating that they were probably just puppets manipulated by others.
The five senses in their bodies are likely to be sealed so that they are still able to attack others even if they are injured and bleeding.
However, these are just Xiao Hanyin's guesses, and everything can only be understood when he has seen those who assassinated the second prince.
It's a pity that they suffered heavy casualties this time, and the masterminds behind the manipulation of those people have already taken care of everything, and they won't leave them many clues at all......
The news that the second prince was assassinated and almost died soon spread throughout the government and the opposition.
"You say, will this matter have anything to do with Xiao Hanyin?"
"Don't guess, Lord Xiao is the pillar of the imperial court, and assassinating the prince is a big crime of the Nine Clans, how can he knowingly commit it?"
"The people who have had a holiday with His Royal Highness in the court are Xiao Hanyin!"
"There is indeed a contradiction between them, but I believe in Lord Xiao's character!"
"That's right, if Lord Xiao really wants to take revenge on His Second Highness, why wait until today?"
"Xiao Hanyin is a family man, although the death of the second prince is indeed a good thing for him, but no one proves that he must have done it!"
"You have to pay attention to evidence!"
……
Some ministers in the court felt that it was the person who secretly wanted the life of the second prince, but Xiao Hanyin and his wife.
Xiao Hanyin naturally didn't want people to slander him.
So, he tried to find a way to get everyone's attention to the assassins who assassinated the second prince.
In fact, the emperor has always believed in Xiao Hanyin.
The recent events all revolve around the second prince, and there are strange things everywhere.
The emperor always felt that someone had reached the royal family......
Although everyone felt that this matter was related to Xiao Hanyin, they still didn't dare to mention it directly in front of the emperor.
After all, such a big thing requires evidence, and it is impossible to convict Xiao Hanyin based on speculation alone.
No matter how powerful they said secretly, it didn't affect Xiao Hanyin's mood......
