Chapter 550: Murderous Assassination
The emperor paid such a big price, naturally it was not Cao Ding's value preservation.
As always, he made a good calculation.
First, Cao Dingbao is the prince's person. This man stole holy relics, and it was the prince's reputation that was affected. He happened to have a legitimate reason to suppress and dispose of the crown prince.
Second, it is a temptation. There must be a brave man under the heavy reward, and if the whole people are looking for it, they still can't find it, which can only mean that the prince hid people. He can use this excuse to calmly and calmly split and dissolve the prince's power little by little.
Third, and most importantly. The emperor knew in his heart that Cao Dingbao would definitely not be able to find it. At least not for a while. But as long as he can't find it for a day, he can have reason to suspect that the prince is suspected of harboring it. As long as Cao Dingbao does not appear, there is no hope for the prince.
Want the crown prince to be restored? Yes! Hand over Cao Dingbao! In fact, the emperor had already decided in his heart that it was the princelings who hid Cao Dingbao. So whether it is handed over or not, the prince is abolished......
Only Cheng Ziyu and the others know that this is still Zhu Changjue's backhand.
He is still clever, and he still borrowed the emperor's hand.
Cao Dingbao was hidden by him.
At this time, it is just right to ask the emperor to help him achieve his goal.
And he grabbed Cao Dingbao in his hands, and it can be of great use in the future!
retreat, he can use Cao Dingbao to threaten the crown prince and queen to do things for him, and in a certain sense, control the prince's group.
enter, he can personally send people to the emperor. He can not only make meritorious contributions, but also use Cao Dingbao's confession to send the prince to the point of no return......
And Cao Dingbao acted on orders, and he confessed and was lenient, with Zhu Changjue's help, he might still be able to save his life and live a prosperous life.
Thinking about it so deeply, Zhu Changjue is indeed chilling......
The emperor struck.
Under the pretext of "conniving at the doorman to steal and disciplining him ineffectively", he took back many of the prince's positions in one go.
After a day's work, the prince's income from the prison of the country that day was gone.
Some of the resources that the prince had received in his early years were also recycled.
Since Vinland had already taken responsibility earlier, with only one charge of theft, this matter was destined to be impossible to make a big deal.
But although the crown prince avoided depriving him of his title and status, he had no future, and it was inevitable that he would fall into a high position.
The queen was ordered to be grounded indefinitely, and the crown prince "thought about it behind closed doors". And most of the staff and troops in his palace were also disbanded at the behest of the emperor.
Although the bloody rain and bloody wind are covered, it will inevitably drift away.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and although nothing happened on the surface, the fluctuations in power in Beijing have become more and more obvious.
The wind direction has completely changed.
Although the princelings are difficult to argue, their skills are not as good as others, and they can only admit it.
Their path is becoming more and more difficult, either they fight to the death, or they find a way out......
The emperor's intentions are no longer concealed, and the crown prince is hollowed out, and it is already empty......
Cheng Ziyu was in a somewhat gloomy mood.
Because of the more than thirty lives.
also because Zhu Changjue has become the biggest beneficiary.
And because his methods are so clean that they are almost nowhere to be found.
Even as shrewd as Zhu Changzhe, in this incident, he was fully reduced to his knife.
Killing people invisibly is too powerful.
In fact, isn't this the same thing as the private salt of the day? It has become his benefit, and if he is defeated, he will also be a substitute for the dead......
Now the crown prince is gone. Zhu Changjue became the first among the princes.
And Kang Anbo, although the emperor removed the suspicion, this incident also sounded the alarm for the emperor and reawakened the emperor's vigilance against Kang Anbo.
The emperor felt that Kang Anbo would still focus on the coastal areas in the short term, and if there was no major incident, he would not come back for the time being.
He also said that although the great plague of coastal piracy has been eliminated, this is the best time to fully clear the pirates to prevent the resurgence of pirates and suppress the pirates, and he hopes that Kang Anbo will seize this opportunity.
The implication is to let Kang Anbo return his focus to official business, rather than the power struggle in Beijing.
He also said that if Kang Amber was too busy with affairs, he could send someone to assist.
- A naked threat. If you are disobedient, you will be given a division of power. This forced Kang Amber to clamp his tail.
In this way, the most annoying is Zhu Changzhe.
After making trouble for a long time, he was busy, and even if he picked himself out, he still suffered......
Li Chun couldn't help but ask Cheng Ziyu about it.
"In addition to Cao Dingbao, how many key figures do you remember involved in the previous dynasty?"
"I don't know much. At that time, everything in the previous dynasty was planned by Zhu Changan, and my mind was on the harem and the female dependents. In the later period, after he secretly attached himself to Bai Heng, I knew even less about the previous dynasty.
This Cao Dingbao is because it is too critical, so I have an impression. I can't remember anything if you ask me my name right now. I'll keep an eye out for it in the future, and I'll tell you about the key faces and names. However, can Cao Dingbao find it? ”
"People are already looking for them, I just ask, don't worry about it."
The reason why Li Chun asked this was not because he wanted to do anything, mainly because Zhu Changan must have controlled a large number of secrets because of the opportunity, and he was only afraid that those key hidden piles and chess pieces would be quietly used by Zhu Changan......
Zhu Changan's advantage is too great. He is far away on the frontier, sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight while still accumulating strength, in this sense, his threat may be greater than Zhu Changjue......
Zhu Changjue is at least on the bright side, but he is in the dark!
Li Chun's people have been staring at Zhu Chang'an, and when news came, Bai Heng became more and more serious about him. And he is also angry, he has always worked hard, whether it is studying or "filial piety", coaxing Bai Heng to regard him as his own son......
Li Chun scoffed. Zhu Changan's most powerful method is to coax.
Miss Bai, the purple jade concubine in the previous life, and Wang Yue Wenlan in this life, if he used his meticulousness and carefulness in dealing with women on Bai Heng, Bai Heng's coarse man would not be moved by him......
The current situation is gradually not to be taken lightly, Li Chun began to hesitate, should he go to the frontier to grab more military power in his hands? Or keep an eye on the big picture in Beijing?
For the first time in his life, he felt a little lacking in skills. And he is only newly married, and he is really reluctant to ask him to leave.
But he didn't want to say some worries, he didn't want her to worry too much, he could sense that she was still under a lot of pressure. He hoped that the day would come when she would not have to sigh all the time......
"You're drinking medicine again?"
As soon as Li Chun came to the bath, he saw her leaning on the side of the bed and drinking the black decoction.
"The Queen Mother has prescribed you tonic medicine again?"
Cheng Ziyu pinched her nose and took a big sip.
"The medicine was given by the Queen Mother, but it was not a tonic, it was a soup to avoid children. The mild kind that doesn't hurt the body. Xu is that the taste of the medicine is really bad, she drank very quickly, and there was a medicinal juice rolling down the bowl.
A drop of dark brown rolled down from the corner of her lips and rolled over her white jade neck, so that he couldn't help but come forward and wipe it off with his own hands.
The tentacles were warm, and the delicate and silky feel made him feel a little ape for a while.
He pouted and smiled, helped her carry away the bowl, put down the futon, and made the bed with his own hands.
"The Queen Mother is really considerate and caring, knowing that you and I have just opened meat, and it is the time to be greedy, so naturally we can't rush to have children. It's very thoughtful! ”
Cheng Ziyu ignored him.
If the child is a child, even if her physical factors are put aside, she can't be in a hurry!
There are too many things that have not been resolved, and the child still has to come back in a few years.
"I have an idea." He climbed into bed with a solemn expression.
"You say."
"Since the Queen Mother is so considerate and you have drunk the medicine again, then let's not waste the effect of the medicine, how about it?"
Cheng Ziyu was stunned for a moment before reacting.
So speechless.
"Are you really not tired?" Isn't his physical recovery too good? No fatigue at all.
"Have you ever heard the words "happy and tired? It's enjoyment, how can it be tired? I used to lead people to change horses day and night, and I didn't close my eyes for three days, and I didn't feel tired at that time. Do you say you can get tired? After more than 20 years of recuperation, I can not have this stamina, how to give birth to ten or eight in the future? The lady is too worried. ”
"It's really. Didn't you promise not to do that again today? Cheng Ziyu squinted at him.
"Think about it again, what I said was to double tomorrow night, and I will let you go tonight, but I changed my mind, and I don't need you to double tomorrow, so I ...... tonight Let's have fun in time! ”
Cheng Ziyu's face turned red. The indulgence in the afternoon is still vivid, how do you feel like you are a red face?
"I refuse!"
"No refusal."
"Not in the mood."
"You're in a bad mood, you're nervous, and you're relaxing." It's the truth.
Today, Zhu Changjue's incident was too disappointing. She was in a state of interest all day, and he tossed several times with him. Originally, on the first day of the wedding, it should have been joy, and he planned to take her out to see the scenery, visit the lake in the back garden, and go to the night market at night...... At this point, the interest is defeated.
He couldn't help but wonder, is this step also in Zhu Changjue's calculations? Did that guy still bring bad luck to the two of him?
It's really hateful!
"I'm tired."
"You don't have to exert yourself, you just lie down and enjoy it."
When he said this, he had turned over and pounced on her as fast as he could. The soft body made him quickly turn his enthusiasm into a change in his body.
Cheng Ziyu felt something, and couldn't cry or laugh.
“……”
"No doubts, right?" He quickly picked open her clothes, and after a night of studying, he was already familiar with the unraveling of women's clothes inside and out, and he was able to solve them overnight.
He seems to have learned a lot of tricks through a few actual battles, slowly, unhurriedly, only exploring while setting fire to her, forgetting his feelings, and leaving her several strings of red marks.
Cheng Ziyu felt that it was probably because of the medicine in the afternoon that her body was a little too sensitive. His hand walked over her and gave her shivers.
She was soon a leaf shivering in the wind, at the mercy of his autumn wind. He felt himself like a ball of snowflakes again, and let him flatten and knead it round, and soften it into a puddle of water.
But she soon became the drowning man again, clinging to him, the only driftwood that could save her, and letting him carry her up and down in the waves......
The rough waves bring the ultimate and clear feeling, which is difficult to describe......
It's amazing!
When the tide receded completely, she was surprised that she was out of control.
She found that the game he started, even if she refused in her heart, would take the initiative to sink after half pushing and half parting...... Her body didn't seem to be less pleasant than his.
Unpromising!
Compared with him who bluntly wants candy, he seems to be a little duplicitous. Are you greedy yourself? I just don't know?
She began to wonder, was she sick? Was he poisoned?
Li Chun laughed and said nothing.
He had already guessed that a person who had extraordinary delicacy and sensitivity from the five senses to the mind should have the same body. Last time I heard that a sensitive body is hard to find, and if you train it well, it is a natural stunner. It seems that he earned it.
Anyway, he was happy both physically and mentally. Satisfied with everything.
……
Since they had to get up early on the second day, the two went to bed after having a good time.
Xu is body is too tired, Xu is a few peaks and loops during the day, Xu is because of the memories of his past life brought about by those lives and the prince's encounters, Cheng Ziyu, who has not had nightmares for a long time, slept particularly unsteadily this night.
She dreamed.
In the dream, it was pitch black.
It's very familiar, it seems to be the darkness that she couldn't get out of after being struck by lightning that day.
She didn't question the way of heaven as carefully as last time, she walked slowly, carefully exploring the way, she just wanted to quickly get out of the fog and find Li Chun.
Subsequently, she fell.
When she stretched out her hand again, she found that her hand was sticky and greasy, with a faint fishy smell, and it was all blood.
It's not her blood, it's someone else's, it's stained on her hands.
The blood was still warm......
She panicked.
Then, a magic sound sounded in my ears.
"I said I'm going to give you a big gift, and that's it. Do you like it? ”
This is Zhu Changan's voice.
Cheng Ziyu turned around to look for it, but there was no one.
The surroundings were still shrouded in black fog.
"Zhu Changan, come out! You make it clear. "She panicked." What did you do? Whose blood is this? ”
Zhu Changan's familiar laughter appeared.
He was clearly pleased to appreciate her panic at the moment.
"You're as vile and sneaky as ever, do you have the ability to do it, but you don't have the ability to show up?"
"Hahaha, it makes your heart hairy, your body chills, cranky, and panicked, which is also a means I plan to torture you. How am I going to let you know the ins and outs? I can't show up to provoke you, let you scratch your ears and cheeks but be helpless, it's really painful! ”
"Zhu Changan, what did you do?"
"Don't worry, it doesn't matter if you can't guess. You'll know it in the future! You and I love and kill each other, entangled in two lives, and know the roots. You came back before me, let you take advantage of it, and got Li Chun as a talisman. But it's useless for the two of you to huddle together, you are all my mortal enemies, and I have to clean it up after all! You've run out of opportunities, right? Then your good days are over, and from now on, it's my turn to play my cards. You wait, wait, wait......"
Cheng Ziyu was frightened, not because of Zhu Changan's words or the darkness around him, but because the blood on that hand couldn't be wiped off......
She gasped for breath, as if someone had strangled her neck.
Yes, just like the feeling of suffocation when Zhu Changan pinched her before he died in his previous life......
Li Chun woke her up.
When she woke up, her first instinct was to reach out to her. And he said, This blood is a gift, what has he done?
"What exactly is the gift he said?" Is it the crown prince? It doesn't seem to be.
The prince is unlucky, what does it have to do with her?
Whose blood is it?
"It's fine. It's just a dream. Li Chun hugged her, and his heart tightened. It seems that the two of them have the same concerns. It's just that Li Chun can't figure out what Zhu Changan really wants to do, and where did he start? Who did it again?
Is the two of them only a way to block the soldiers and cover the ground with water?
