Chapter 386 The prince died and the country was chronicled to catch silverfish
The emperor was anxious about the affairs of the eldest princess, and news came from the post station outside Beijing that the king of Xiangjun was assassinated by thieves on the way back to Beijing, and the ship was blown up and the corpses were destroyed, and a boatload of people did not survive.
According to the schedule of the accident in Beijing, when the king of Xiangjun returned to Beijing, it was when the remnants of Chen Guo fled south, but I was afraid that the two sides met, and the group of outlaws of Chen Guo took the opportunity to assassinate the weakly guarded king of Xiangjun.
These remnants of Chen Guo are simply damned, they have harmed his beloved daughter, and they have come to harm his carefully cultivated adopted son, the emperor's thunderous anger is difficult for people to withstand, and he has gone to the states and counties along the way, and these remnants must be arrested and brought to justice, the emperor is afraid that they will not be satisfied, so he sent the prince of Dejun and the prince of Weiguo to the south to investigate, and they will not come back if they can't catch anyone.
Yu Wenqin invited his sister's family to come to the house to narrate, and agreed that this matter is half an opportunity and half a challenge, the emperor has abolished a pair of children one after another, and now it has collapsed a little, he has no children under his knees, and the adopted son is used as a backup, the eldest princess is trying to plot the position of the emperor's grandson, but I am afraid that the emperor has moved this idea, and now his adopted son and grandson are gone, who else can he choose as the heir, Yuwenqin has no opponent, the emperor appointed him at this time to track down the remnants of Chen Guo, but I am afraid that he also has a mind to test his ability, like the golden boy, if he returns victorious, Presumably, this can be decided, Golden Boy Fubo, he won't.
"Are you sure the golden boy is really dead? Don't work hard and make a wedding dress for others in the end. ”
Yu Wenqin pondered for a moment and said: "It is unlikely to survive, at that time, a boatload of people were all hit by the incense, sleeping to death, the boat was blown to pieces, they must have become slag, the body is not easy to find, I heard that some corpses were fished, and it is impossible to tell who is who." I had people patrol the way, whether he was dead or not, and even if he wasn't dead, I wanted to make him dead. ”
Ming Yu pinched the teacup and carefully rubbed the pattern on the wall of the cup, and said: "He also has two sons, Your Majesty likes it tightly, in case it ......."
mentioned the two little cubs, Yu Wenqin thought of his eldest son who died young, this revenge will not be avenged for him to be a father in vain, the death of the golden boy is far from enough, and the two little cubs will be buried sooner or later.
"Your Majesty is old, how can he still have the energy to cultivate another child to become a talent, the golden boy is just gone, if his two sons are gone, I am afraid that His Majesty will investigate carefully, let's wait first, there will be opportunities in the future."
Xiangjun Wangfu has no owner, can a princess still be able to hold up the court? The emperor and queen in the palace only said that they liked their grandson, and now there is a shortage of soldiers outside, one of them is busy tracking down the remnants of Chen Guo and exonerating his daughter, and the other is busy taking care of his daughter and grandson, so none of them thought of this nominal daughter-in-law and grandson, and even the king of Xiangjun is gone, and they have never said that they want to take the princess and the two children into the palace.
The two families secretly discussed the rules of the trip in one place, and one person also thought of them during the conversation: "Liu Yushi is the executor of this salt merchant case, the golden boy is dead, he is still alive, and the letter he sent to the capital was intercepted by us, but if Your Majesty sends someone to Jinling to investigate the assassination of the golden boy, I am afraid that he will be told to him, should we also kill him?" ”
The two principals involved in the salt merchant case are dead, how can the emperor not be suspicious, if they are found at that time, I am afraid that their previous efforts will be wasted.
"And Jiang Ji has also been to Jinling, I'm afraid that I also know the internal reason, if we can destroy Liu Yushi, can we also destroy him?"
The Jiang family has a private secret line, and the private folds passed to the emperor have never passed the post station, and the Dejun Wangfu and the Weiguo Mansion are not comparable to the Jiang family, and Jiang Ji is as deep as his father's city, and they are really not easy to do.
Yu Wenqin sighed hatefully, this pile is not easy to do!
"Your Majesty has only sent us south to arrest the remnants of Chen Guo now, and has not mentioned the matter of the salt merchant case, he is now anxious, how can he bother with this, let's go to Jinling and contact Liu Yushi, try to settle the salt transportation case, the golden boy is dead, he still doesn't know how to choose?"
After the two families discussed, they felt that they could only do this, so they immediately packed their bags for Yu Wenqin and Mingyu, and the sooner they left, the better.
The palace released the obituary of the assassination of King Xiangjun, the princess fainted in pain, and someone from the county mansion came to help her decorate the mourning hall to hold a funeral, and the princess woke up and stopped her, she didn't believe that the prince was dead, and she didn't see the body, so how could she believe it.
The third lord and the third lady sent the black-haired man to the black-haired man, and they seemed to be ten years old overnight, and the two brothers didn't know what was going on, and they also cried when they saw the adults crying, and the ladies in the house had already put on sackcloth clothes, and the princess looked at them and let them all take off, the prince is not dead!
Only the princess insisted on these, and the Ministry of Rites and the Internal Affairs Office came to assist the princess in handling the princess's funeral, and the princess's emotions made it difficult for them to do things, so they could only enter the palace to ask the queen.
The queen is very sad about her daughter, who was originally a good family, but in just a few days, her son-in-law and son have died, and her daughter has also been abolished, what kind of evil has this been! Hearing that the princess was in a mood, the queen was impatient to comfort her, and asked the Internal Affairs Office to negotiate with her more, the princess is a smart person, and she will always pass this hurdle.
Everyone is paying attention to the affairs of Chen Guoyu, no one thought of the purpose of King Xiangjun's trip to Beijing, the salt merchant case ended so quietly, many people can't wait for the emperor to remember, after all, this case involves the interests of many people in the court, if King Xiangjun takes these things out, not only the salt politics in Jiangnan will have a big change of blood, but the court will also have a big change of blood, and there are many people who don't want him to come back.
The people who originally supported King Xiangjun didn't dare to redress his grievances, and the boats they got on sank, so why don't they hurry up and get on another big boat? Guarding the rotten planks of this broken ship to hit someone's big ship, it's not hitting a stone with an egg, and it's not his servant, who can be so stupid and loyal.
Just when everyone tacitly wanted to skip this matter, Zhenguo Gong took something out, that is, the evidence collected by Xiangjun Wang and Liu Yushi in Jiangnan, divided into two parts, one is that Xiangjun Wang took him into Beijing, and was intercepted and assassinated on the road, and the evidence was also destroyed, and one was in the hands of Liu Yushi, he immediately sent the things to Jiang Ji, the commander of Quanzhou, after hearing that Xiangjun Wang had an accident, and Jiang Ji took the secret line of Jiang's family and sent it back to Jingli's own house, those people intercepted on the way north, how could they be stopped?
In the list submitted by the Zhenguo Gong, many families in the court are impressively listed, and the noble clansmen are all involved, especially the Dejun Wangfu, there are two big salt merchants in Jiangnan who are working for their family, and the Dejun King uses his status to facilitate these salt merchants to provide these salt merchants with channels to take private salt, and these people get the salt and sell it overseas, and most of the money in exchange is filial piety to the Dejun Wangfu.
This sale of illicit salt is a matter of great importance, mining salt, transporting salt and selling salt, from the salt mine to the salt administration yamen, a line has to be opened, the emperor is furious, he wants to see how powerful these people are, where he can't see, what these moths have eaten away at his country!
