Chapter 44: Revenge

In recent times, Kim Wuwei has been very lively.

Those who take favors, trust relationships, spy secretly, and assassinate in the middle of the night......

Coming and going, like a vegetable market.

Lord Shi Xu, the head of Jinwuwei, sighed with emotion, "This official has been on an errand in Jinwuwei for ten years, and he has never seen such a lively scene. ”

It's so lively that it's not real at all.

It stands to reason that anyone who enters Jin Wuwei, regardless of whether it is a prince or a son of a family, has to shed his skin.

Partial to that Xiao Yi, "lived" in Jin Wuwei, as if entering his own home.

There is nothing but freedom.

Eating and drinking spicy food every day, splashing ink, it doesn't look like being in prison, but like a vacation.

The son of the following secretly asked Xu Changshi, "Gongzi Yi who is locked inside, such a big row, don't you try it?" ”

Xu Changshi "shhh You are not allowed to ask about other matters. If someone asks you for favors, they will push you back. Beware of life-earning life-saving flowers. ”

The crowd was taken aback.

This case is so serious.

Someone didn't understand and asked: "He killed the second master of the Tao family, and he didn't have to go through the court to be punished." On the other day, the Tao family asked about the case, how did we Jin Wuwei explain. ”

Xu Changshi made a straight face and said: "How to explain to the Tao family, it's not your turn to worry, the above has its own opinions." This case, don't ask, don't look, don't talk...... Just as if there was no such person in the edict. Got it? ”

"Got it!"

Xu Changshi was not at ease, and mentioned again: "Keep an eye on the outside." Recently, there has been a lot of commotion, and the assassins all over the world are rushing towards Jinwuwei. You have guarded the gates, and not a single fly is allowed to enter. If there are three long and two short people inside, you will come to see you! ”

"No!"

……

Weiyang Palace!

Empress Tao was in a very bad mood.

She sharply questioned Young Eunuch Mei: "Why is Xiao Yi still alive?" Bengu asked you to solve him, how many days has it been, why hasn't Bengong heard the good news yet? ”

"Mother's anger!"

Young Eunuch Mei felt bitter.

"Niang Niang Mingjian, the old slave secretly sent three groups of people to Jin Wuwei. However, Jin Wuwei is like an iron bucket, and water can't splash in. More than half of the three groups of people were lost, and the rest fled the capital to avoid the limelight. ”

It's not that he's incompetent, it's that Jin Wuwei is too cruel.

Empress Tao and the Tao family have been operating in the court for one or two decades, and Jin Wuwei is the only place where they can't get involved.

Buying inducements may have been useful in the past.

This time, no matter how much money was paid, Jin Wuwei's gang of bastards claimed to be dignified and white, and they didn't want a penny.

Bah!

Stinky and shameless!

Obviously, someone greeted him in advance and did not allow Jin Wuwei Erlang to collect benefits.

Queen Tao was in a bad mood, and she said sharply: "Three groups of people are not enough, then ten groups of people, thirty groups of people." In any case, the palace wants Xiao Yi to accompany the second brother to the funeral! ”

Young Eunuch Mei frowned slightly, and cautiously reminded, "Niangniang, it's too much, I'm afraid of alarming Your Majesty and provoking Your Majesty's anger." In case His Majesty asks, wouldn't it make Niangniang embarrassed. ”

"What do you want to say? Could it be that you want to persuade this palace to be generous and spare Xiao Yi's life? ”

"The old slave doesn't dare! The old slave thought that it was not appropriate for the palace to come forward in this matter, so it was better to ask the Tao family to cook Gongzi Yi. ”

Empress Tao smiled coldly, "The Tao family hasn't been idle these days, don't you know." ”

Young Eunuch Mei lowered his head and whispered, "The old slave just thinks that the Tao family can do better." ”

Empress Tao was silent and pondered.

After a moment, she said, "No matter what, Xiao Yi must die." The thugs don't work, so find a way to invite a master to stab from the outside. Even if it causes criticism from the courtiers, he will not hesitate to do so. ”

Young Eunuch Mei opened his mouth, but his words of persuasion still did not come out.

It was clear that the queen was not calm enough.

At this time, the queen couldn't listen to anything.

He had no choice but to retreat.

The third prince, Xiao Chengyi, was waiting outside the palace gate, and when he saw Young Eunuch Mei coming out, he hurriedly asked, "How is the matter?" ”

Young Eunuch Mei shook his head, "Niangniang wants Xiao Yi to die, and she will not hesitate to pay any price." ”

The third prince, Xiao Chengyi, frowned, "The queen mother is usually not like this, why is she so stubborn in this matter." That Xiao Yi has been imprisoned in Jin Wuwei and died, it is a matter of time. Why do you have to assassinate and fall into the hands of others? ”

Young Eunuch Mei explained: "Your Highness doesn't know that when Niangniang was still in the Tao family, she had a very deep relationship with the second master. The second master was stabbed to death by Gongzi Yi on the Jinluan Palace, and the mother did not turn her face with His Majesty on the spot, which was already extremely restrained. Niangniang is eager for revenge, and now no one can persuade her. ”

The third prince, Xiao Chengyi, smashed his fist on the wall, "The Tao family misunderstood me!" ”

"Your Highness is cautious!" Young Eunuch Mei reminded in a low voice.

The third prince, Xiao Chengyi, had a pale face, "The queen mother insists on going her own way, and if she wants to commit assassination, she will be reprimanded by her father sooner or later." The second uncle is dead when he dies, and Jin Wuwei will give an explanation. Even if the queen mother has a deep relationship with the second uncle, can't she wait? Wait for Jin Wuwei's investigation to be clear, can't Ming Zhengcan't be punished? If you have to take risks, you are not afraid of backlash, and you are not worried about someone making a profit. ”

He was restless and uneasy.

He doesn't like to take risks, the risks are too high.

What's more, he is taking risks for the Tao family, and he is full of unhappiness.

The Tao family is his maternal family, which is true.

However, the Tao family is so powerful and has too long hands that even his prince's mansion has to be fingered.

The third prince, Xiao Chengyi, has long been dissatisfied with this.

On the one hand, he wanted to use the power of the Tao family, and on the other hand, he wanted to cut off the Tao family's hand.

He was conflicted, struggling, tangled......

Young Eunuch Mei's eyes flashed, and he said quietly: "This is in the palace, Your Highness beware that the wall has ears." Niangniang lost her brother and acted a little excessively, and His Royal Highness should be considerate. ”

The third prince, Xiao Chengyi, said insincerely: "Thank you Young Eunuch Mei for reminding me, I understand." I'm just worried about the queen mother. Early this morning, I greeted my father, but he didn't see me. ”

When Young Eunuch Mei heard this, his heart suddenly jumped a few times.

He asked, "Does Your Highness know why Your Majesty has not seen you?" ”

"He said he was unwell. However, I asked around, and Xingqing Palace did not call the imperial doctor for consultation. ”

Obviously, the so-called physical discomfort is simply an excuse.

Young Eunuch Mei asked bluntly, "What is Your Highness worried about?" ”

The third prince, Xiao Chengyi, pondered and said, "I'm worried that my father is angry!" The Tao family is obviously a bitter master, so they can take advantage of this opportunity to make their father feel guilty and force their father to order Xiao Yi to be executed. However, the queen mother and the Tao family had to take the means of assassination, and the bitter lord became the perpetrator, and he still committed the murder in Jinwuwei. Now no matter how much reason there is, it has become a nuance. How can I not worry about this situation. ”

Young Eunuch Mei nodded secretly, and His Royal Highness was very worried about it.

It's just that the queen mother and the Tao family are like crazy, knowing that assassination is not advisable, but they still have to play assassination.

Jin Wuwei, the emperor's eagle dog, that place is equivalent to the emperor's territory.

Playing assassination in Jin Wuwei is tantamount to not giving the emperor face.

It's no wonder that the emperor can be happy.

There was no movement on the emperor's side for the time being, this was all due to the fact that the Tao family was the bitter master, and for the sake of Queen Tao's face, he would open the net.

If you don't stop in time, continue to assassinate, and wait until the emperor's patience runs out, then I am afraid that there will be waves again.

It is extremely unfavorable to the Tao family and Queen Tao.

Young Eunuch Mei sighed and said to the third prince, Xiao Chengyi: "Our family has tried our best to persuade the queen mother, but unfortunately the queen mother is grief-stricken and refuses to stop for the time being. ”

"Grandpa Mei has worked hard! I only hope that the queen mother can calm down as soon as possible and stop giving people a handle. ”

"On the Tao family's side, does the Third Highness have any ideas?"

"His Royal Highness will personally visit the Tao family. The second uncle was stabbed to death, and His Royal Highness was also very sad. However, there is no resurrection from the dead, and the living are more important than the dead. ”

"What His Royal Highness said is extremely true! On the Tao family's side, it will be hard for His Royal Highness to take a trip. ”

"Grandpa Mei is polite!"

……

Out of the palace, the third prince Xiao Chengyi did not immediately go to the Tao family.

He thought about it, knocked on the wall of the carriage, and ordered the carriage to go to the Second Prince's Mansion.

He's going to see his second brother.

For such a big thing, the second brother has never shown up, and he has no attitude, which is chilling.

The second prince, Xiao Chengwen, is drinking health soup.

Upon learning of the arrival of the third brother, he instructed his subordinates, "Invite the third highness to the study." ”

When the brothers met, the scene was slightly indifferent.

The third prince, Xiao Chengyi, was the first to speak, "Second brother, don't you wonder why I'm looking for you?" ”

The second prince, Xiao Chengwen, put down the teacup, "You came out of the palace and came directly to me." So you've hit a wall with your mother. ”

"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from the second brother. The queen mother and the Tao family insisted on sending someone to assassinate Xiao Yi, and if it goes on like this, something will happen sooner or later. Isn't the second brother worried at all? ”

Xiao Chengyi stared at him, not wanting to miss any expression on his face.

Xiao Chengwen lowered his head and smiled, "The third brother is so nervous, because he is afraid that he will be implicated and affect your inheritance of the unification." ”

"Second brother Hugh wants to talk nonsense."

"Why is the third brother duplicitous, don't tell me, you don't have the heart to argue. If you really don't have an idea about that position, how can you be so nervous. ”

Xiao Chengyi was short of breath and wanted to refute, but in the face of the second brother's penetrating gaze, he couldn't say a word.

Xiao Chengwen smiled clearly, "The queen mother and the Tao family have been smooth sailing for one or two decades, and they are used to the obedience and flattery of the people around them. Now a nobody suddenly came out and killed his second uncle on the Jinluan Palace. This incident is not only a murder to pay for life, but also a provocation to the Tao family and the queen mother.

In the past 20 years, the queen mother and the Tao family have been too smooth, so that they can't stand the slightest setbacks and blows. But if you are offended, you will fight back tenfold. It's only been a few days since the incident, and it's useless for you to come forward to persuade the queen mother to calm down at this time. Wait, wait until February, and the queen mother should calm down. As for the Tao family, you don't have to pay attention to it. Unless, you plan to borrow the power of the Tao family. ”

After speaking, he looked at the third brother with a smile.

It's almost written on my face: I've seen everything.

Xiao Chengyi was annoyed and angry.

He hated the second brother's all-seeing gaze and embarrassed him.

He often wondered, if the second brother was not a sick seedling, would it still be his turn to take the throne?

He opened his mouth and asked, "Is your solution just waiting?" ”

The second prince, Xiao Chengwen, asked rhetorically, "Otherwise?" Do you have a better way? ”

The third prince, Xiao Chengyi, was speechless.

He really couldn't do better.

However, it doesn't mean that "waiting" is the best way to go.

The second prince, Xiao Chengwen, covered his mouth and coughed, coughing a few times, coughing heartbreakingly, making people feel uncomfortable just looking at it.

The third prince, Xiao Chengyi, took the opportunity to say goodbye, "I've been chattering for a long time today, and the second brother has worked hard!" Second brother, take care of your health, brother, I will come to visit you another day. ”

Xiao Chengwen waved his hand, "Third brother, go slowly!" I won't give you this body. You have to calm down, and I and Dingtao will count on you in the future. ”

Xiao Chengyi's heart was instantly excited, but his face was silent.

"The second brother's words are premature. Of course, one day, I will take good care of my second brother and Dingtao. ”

"Thanks to you!"

The subordinates sent away the third prince Xiao Chengyi.

The second prince, Xiao Chengwen, immediately stopped coughing, and his complexion looked better.

He held the teacup and plucked the tea with the lid, his expression smiling rather than smiling.

"My father was in his prime, and he was in a hurry to jump up and down, so he was not afraid that his father would be angry and put people in prison. Third brother, third brother, you are top-notch everywhere, but you lack patience. Someday, if the tide is gone, don't go crazy. Don't learn from that Xiao Yi, the sword goes sideways. ”

After the meeting, he called the attendant and asked, "What is the current situation on Jin Wuwei's side?" ”

The chamberlain bowed down and said, "Back to Your Highness, Jin Wuwei's side is as lively as ever. In addition to the Tao family and the queen mother, who wanted to take Gongziyi's head, even the king of Dongping also intervened in it, wanting to kill him. That Gongzi Yi is miserable enough. For so many days, no one interceded for him. The Shi family in the capital did not move at all. ”

"Don't mention the Shi family in the capital, a group of cowards. The huge Shi family, and the branch of Pingwu Hou Shiwen is prosperous enough. If nothing else, it will continue to thrive for decades. Calculating the time, Pingwu Hou Shiwen should also get the news. His Royal Highness is very curious about what Pingwu Marquis Shi Wen will do, and whether he will come forward to protect Xiao Yi. ”

"It's not easy for the prince to want to watch the play, so he asked Yushi to impeach Pingwu Marquis Shiwen. Gongziyi is an official under his name after all. ”

"Reasonable!"

------Off topic------

It's coming soon.

Ingot is going to make an announcement on the shelves.
