Such a good calculation not only calculated Yan Yiheng and Yan Mushan, but also pulled himself into his plan, which became one of the conditions for ruining Yan Zheng's reputation.

Is there such a smart person in the Yan Kingdom?

Some.

Qi Changrong suddenly remembered the portrait that hung on the top floor of the palace library in his previous life.

It seems that the man has appeared.

……

In the royal courtyard, Yan Mu walked into the mansion in a hurry, and the oppressive aura that spread around his body made people almost breathless.

He carried the clothes of the housekeeper of the other hospital with one hand, and said angrily: "Go and find the palace doctor for this prince!" ”

The housekeeper was frightened by his sudden anger, but he quickly reacted and crawled to the ground to ask the doctor in person.

After a while, Tuoba Sheng, who got the news, was slowly pushed in front of Yan Mushan.

Seeing that the people in front of him were short of breath and his face was dark, Tuoba Sheng frowned slightly: "What's wrong with you?" ”

In the face of the brothers with deep friendship, Yan Mushan naturally had to be more patient than others, so he roughly described what happened today to him.

At the end, Yan Mushan said gloomily: "I have never smeared poison on the golden whip, let alone poison people, the words of those people are simply slander against me." ”

Tuoba Sheng groaned: "According to what you said, the corpse should have been brought back?" ”

"That's right." Yan Mushan nodded and sneered: "I want to see how that person died." ”

Tuoba Sheng didn't ask anymore.

Now that the person has been brought back, it is easy to get the truth.

A moment later, the trembling house doctor was picked up by the housekeeper of the other hospital.

When he saw that it was a corpse that needed to be treated, the doctor rolled his eyes and almost fainted with fright.

Seeing that he was so angry, Yan Mushan kicked him with an unkind expression, and said with disgust: "It's just a dead man, what are you afraid of?" ”

"Why don't you show me how this man died?"

Under Yan Mushan's urging, although the house doctor was scared in his heart, he didn't dare not do it.

I had to make a bitter face, carefully touch the side of the dead man, carefully examine his wounds, and finally take out a silver needle from the suitcase and prick it from his wound.

By the time the silver needle was removed, the end of the piercing flesh had turned black.

Only this scene, needless to say, the truth and falsehood stand out.

Yan Mushan's face was ugly and said: "This is impossible, I said it, there is no poison on my golden whip!" ”

The palace doctor's frightened fingers trembled, and he didn't dare to argue with it, so he took out a few silver needles and pierced them from different wounds.

When removed, the tip of the needle is still black.

The palace doctor pondered and said: "Your Highness, the autopsy is not a small forte, if His Royal Highness does not believe it, he can order someone to ask a professional servant to ......."

Yan Mushan was silent, his eyes were glued to the silver needle, and his face was darker than the poisoned end.

He never thought that it was really poison on his whip.

"That's enough." It was none other than Tuoba Sheng, who was sitting on the side, who interrupted the words of the house doctor: "Since the person is dead, it doesn't matter how he died. ”

Hearing this, Yan Mushan took a deep breath and said disapprovingly: "Why is it not important, because of his death, I was slandered by those people!" ”

"Mu Shan, there are a lot of people who have died at your hands, why do you have to worry about this one alone?" Tuoba Sheng couldn't understand why he was so excited.

As a member of the royal family, coupled with Yan Mushan's arrogant and domineering nature, I don't know how many minions died in his hands.

Since you have killed someone, what is the difference between killing one and killing several, and killing one more and killing one less?

Yan Mushan grinded his teeth, and his expression was ugly: "The first time I was slandered, I couldn't even speak. ”

Tuoba Sheng thought about it, if he was slandered, he might not be much better than Yan Mushan.

Thinking of this, he didn't say anything more, and his gaze returned to the corpse on the ground.

After a while, Tuoba Sheng suddenly reacted to something: "Where is your golden whip?" ”

When Yan Mushan was talking to him just now, he just forgot to mention this.

"It was snatched away by Qi Changrong's people!"

At the mention of this, Yan Mushan was even more angry.

You know, that golden whip was made by him with a lot of painstaking efforts, and now it was easily snatched away, just like riding on his head and.

"Qi Changrong?" Tuoba Sheng put away his carelessness and asked seriously, "Why does this matter have anything to do with him again?" ”

Yan Mushan was extremely aggrieved, and said angrily: "It's his woman, accusing me of poisoning the people!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the courtyard suddenly fell silent.

As long as they have a relationship with Qi Changrong, then this matter, whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, will become unfavorable to them.

Tuoba Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and immediately said without hesitation: "Send someone to cremate this corpse immediately." ”

"Why?"

"Qi Changrong snatched your golden whip, I'm afraid it's just to take away the evidence to sue you, you have to take the first step, and there is no evidence against the corpse."

Tuoba Sheng had a faint bad premonition in his heart, and his eyebrows jumped and hurt, but he didn't know how to tell the person in front of him.

After a while, he said, "You let people do what I say first, and I'll explain to you later why I want to do it." ”

Yan Mushan has always believed in him.

The little squalor between them has long since disappeared.

Seeing that he didn't look like a joke, he immediately arranged for someone to do what he said.

After the people in the mansion carried the people out and burned them, Tuoba Sheng said: "Now I am not sure whether there is poison on your golden whip, if it is really poisonous, then the family that has had a dirty relationship with you before will definitely be suspicious of you." ”

"As many people you hit with the whip, there are as many people as you doubt that you have smeared poison on the whip when you hit them."

Yan Mushan understood the seriousness of the matter, and hurriedly said, "I really don't have it." ”

"Your answer doesn't matter to them anymore." Tuoba Sheng said seriously: "Therefore, they must not be given a chance to prove it." ”

He looked at the fire burning in the backyard and continued, "This person can be poisoned, but it must not be poisoned by your whip. ”

"Your whip can be poisonous, but it must not be the same as the poison that poisoned the man."

After listening, Yan Mushan understood in an instant, and his eyes were slightly solemn.

"Don't worry, no matter who asks, my answer is ...... I don't know. ”

Not only did he say he didn't know, but he also had to create the illusion that the whip was more than just something he had touched.

Otherwise, I am afraid that I will not be able to get rid of the crime of reckless disregard of human life.

……

The Great Prince's Mansion, after hearing Yan Mushan's grand event today, Yan Zheng's face was not very good-looking.

Especially after listening to what Shi Xia said relayed by his subordinates, his face sank completely.

"What a dog minion!"

The staff said: "Your Highness doesn't need to be angry, after all, something has happened, and no matter how angry you are, it's useless." ”

Yan Zheng took a breath, and his eyebrows were solemn: "Now that the fifth brother's reputation is ruined, what should I do?" ”

The staff shook his head: "Your Highness doesn't have to do anything, this matter has nothing to do with you." ”

Yan Zheng shook his head in disbelief: "How can it have nothing to do with me?" The fifth brother is the younger brother of my mother's compatriots, and if this matter spreads, both my father and the people will be dissatisfied with me. ”

It was not easy for him to win over so many courtiers and make them follow him willingly.

Seeing that he is about to become the final winner, he will never allow anything to affect his steps.

The staff bowed their heads and said: "Your Majesty is still sitting on the dragon chair, and it is not His Royal Highness's turn to discipline the five princes, not to mention that under the excitement of the crowd, His Highness will fall into the mouth no matter what he says, so it is better not to say it and hand everything over to His Majesty for judgment." ”

"But the fifth brother ......"

The staff knew what Yan Zheng was thinking, and hurriedly persuaded him: "Don't worry, no matter what, the fifth prince is His Majesty's biological son, at most, it is just to calm the anger of the public, and there will be no substantive punishment." ”

Hearing this, Yan Zheng pondered it.

In the choice of being angry after being involved in this matter and letting Yan Mushan face this matter alone, he quickly made a choice.

The fifth brother is young, and he has always been the one who is most favored by his father.

Even if he is fined, it is estimated that he will only be confined to the house at most and not allowed to go out.

After thinking about it, Yan Zheng nodded and sighed helplessly: "Since this is the case, I will do what Mr. said." ”

The staff nodded, bowed and retreated.

Abandoning his own brothers and preserving himself is Yan Zheng's last choice.

……

Just as everyone expected, soon, a bright yellow holy decree came out of the palace of Yan Kingdom, punished Yan Mushan, and ordered him to be grounded in the mansion for half a month.

No one is allowed to go out without a call.

Although the punishment was very light, it also calmed the anger of the heavens to a certain extent.

After all, it was only a little-known coachman who died, and Yan Mushan was the most favored of the five princes of Yan, and he couldn't let the five princes fight for the lowly coachman.

What the people want to see is just the attitude of Emperor Yan.

Now that the attitude is in place, they are naturally willing to forget the unpleasantness of the past.

When the content of the holy decree reached Lanxin Lake, Yan Yiheng was lying on a bamboo chair in the backyard of the music hall, swaying and enjoying the sunshine.

Without those male pets, his life can be said to be clean and watery, without any waves, and he doesn't even have a funny object.

The silence that had been absent for a long time made his whole body linger with a dead air.

When Sun Xiangyu came to find him, he happened to bump into him and sighed half-dead.

"Third brother."

A familiar voice came from not far away, Yan Yiheng looked at the source of the voice, and said weakly: "You don't stick to the second brother, what are you doing here?" ”

Sun Xiangyu jumped over, found a stone pier at random and sat down, tilted his head and smiled: "Second brother is doing his homework, I'll see if you're sober." ”

Yan Yiheng lay lazily on the bamboo chair, shook his head helplessly and waved his hand: "Then you see it now, can you go back?" ”

He wanted to be quiet and quiet now.

"Third brother! You turn your face and don't recognize people! Sun Xiangyu's face was full of grievances and accused him of ruthlessness: "You wanted to drive me away when I just came, and you are no longer the third brother in my memory." ”
