Chapter 30: The Sun family is dead
After seeing his father leave the palace in the carriage, Wang Xue turned around and walked back, and as he walked, he instructed Qing'er and Xi'er: "You bring a few who can fight, and then go to Sun's house to have a look, and come back and report to me as soon as there is any movement." ”
"Yes, county lord, let's go now."
As the two left, Wang Xue came to the back garden of the palace alone, walking around the pavilion, feeling a little uneasy.
It stands to reason that in three days, Sun Desheng would have been able to do it if he wanted to do it to the Wang family, but until this time, he had not heard any news about the Wang family.
The people she sent came back every time they said the same result, nothing happened to the Wang family.
In addition, she was really busy in the past two days, so she didn't care too much, and just thought about driving Sun Desheng out of the capital after the old man got the evidence.
But now, it seems that things are not so simple.
In Wang Xue's mind, maybe Sun Desheng learned her identity, so he didn't choose to make a move.
It may also be that the person behind him told him Wang Xue's identity, which made him jealous, so he didn't do anything.
Of course, this is just the result of Wang Xue's thinking on the good side.
If... After the person behind Sun Desheng learned that she had taught Sun Desheng a lesson, he was worried that his matter would be revealed and he didn't make a move, and it was even very likely... In order to kill people and bury the evidence, it is very likely that Sun Desheng is now...
Thinking of this, Wang Xue was big for a while.
It turned out that the last thing in the booklet involved a person from the palace.
It is the son of the current emperor, Wang Yanqi, the seventh prince.
Wang Yanqi is actually the least obvious among the emperor's sons.
What everyone knows on weekdays is that he is a low-key person, does things in a low-key manner, and does not fight or grab, and only likes to be accompanied by poetry and painting all day long.
It's what the people say, 'Good prince.' ’
But...
Who would have thought that he was such a good prince in everyone's mouth, but behind his back he was a 'businessman' who sold the news of his country to other countries.
The other countries in this group specifically refer to the northern country.
And the way he sold the news was through Sun Desheng's business.
On the surface, the Sun family is a businessman, and there are some transactions in the capital, which are unremarkable.
But in fact, he secretly sent the news of the Seven Princes out when he was delivering goods outside.
Thus reaping huge rewards.
It is no wonder that in the past few years, the northern kingdom has suppressed the Liang country everywhere, not only in business, but also in other aspects.
I heard that two years ago, Liang discovered a mineral vein located at the junction of the northern country and the Liang country, and the Liang country originally wanted to send people to guard it, and then completely take the ore vein for himself, and then spend a few years to mine it.
But as soon as their people arrived there, they found that there were already people stationed there, and when they asked, they learned that the northern kingdom had sent people to occupy the vein early.
This incident aroused the dissatisfaction of Liang State, and some ministers proposed to let the Northern Kingdom sacrifice this vein, after all, this vein is very large.
If the other party does not agree, it will be resolved by force.
But there were people who objected at the time, and the reason they objected was that it would not be good if it damaged the relationship between the two countries.
Even if the Northern Kingdom would pay tribute to the Liang State every year at that time, in fact, with the strength of the Northern Kingdom at that time, it also had the strength to fight the Liang State.
It wouldn't be good if it really caused a mess of life because of this.
So someone suggested that it would be better to send an envoy to the north to inquire about the matter and see the other party's opinion.
Although there were people who were dissatisfied with this, there was no objection to it.
If the original owner remembers it well, it was the Seventh Prince Wang Yanqi who took the initiative to take over the matter, and in his words, he couldn't bear to see the lives of the people in misery, so he was willing to go and persuade in person.
At that time, many people were moved by what the Seven Princes did.
It was only later when the Seven Princes came back that the news was that the Northern Kingdom refused to offer the vein, but they were also unwilling to fight with the Liang State over a vein.
So he asked the Seven Princes to bring back a large amount of gold and silver treasures, silk and satin, and also promised to exchange a state of land in exchange for that vein.
At that time, the emperor felt that since the other party had lowered his posture, he did not continue to be embarrassed, so he agreed.
It was only later that I learned that the state was actually the most desolate place, where birds don't poop and grass doesn't grow.
But if you have agreed to this matter, there is no reason to go back.
Coupled with something else happening after that, the matter is over.
Now that I think about it, will there be the 'credit' of the Seven Princes?
As for what benefits the Seven Princes could get from it, she couldn't guess, but it didn't have anything to do with money.
It's probably related to the throne.
Anyway, this news is too exciting and too scary, which is why Wang Xue chose to tell the old prince in the first place.
She can only leave this matter to someone who can manage, or rather, has the ability to deal with it.
Her purpose has always been just Sun Desheng, and she has no ability to interfere in anything that the people above do.
In this way, in the long wait, it was Xi'er and Qing'er who came back first.
At the same time, it also brought Wang Xue bad news.
"You say Sun Desheng is dead?"
"Yes, Miss, the entire Sun family is dead." Qing'er nodded, and said in a trembling voice.
"Which of you saw that? What are the specific situations? Wang Xue asked in a deep voice after sitting down.
Then a man with Wang Xue's impression walked out.
This person was the first to shoot when he taught Sun Desheng's subordinates before, if I remember correctly, everyone called him Wu Sheng.
"County Lord, I went in and saw it." Wu Sheng said: "When we went to the door of the Sun family's mansion, we found that there was no one to guard the door, I felt that something was wrong, so I climbed over the wall alone, and then I saw several people of the Sun family falling to the ground, with blood marks on their necks, which was fatal." ”
"As I walked all the way in, I found that all the descendants of the Sun family were spared, all of them were killed by a knife, and finally I found Sun Desheng's family in the hall, who were neatly arranged on the ground, and all of them were wiped with knives."
"What about Sun Rong? And so it is? ”
"Yes, the same is true for Sun Rong."
"But the Sun family was killed, how could no one know about such a big movement?" Wang Xue asked puzzled.
Xi'er opened her mouth and gave an answer.
"Because after we went there, we found out that there was no one living near the Sun family, and it is estimated that all of them moved because of the bullying behavior of the Sun family, and the only family that did not move was because there were only two old people living in the other party's house, and the two of them had bad ears, so they didn't know that the Sun family's whole family was killed."
Wang Xue suddenly realized that this was the case, and now Wang Xue can be 100% sure that it must be the Seventh Prince who killed the Sun family.
After all, no one had a reason to do that but him.
It's just a lack of heart, and I'm worried that my secret will be discovered.
But since this is the case, why didn't he take care of Sun Desheng in the first place? If he doesn't cause trouble, how can it be?
Although the result is what Wang Xue wants to see, but... I always feel that just letting them die is really cheap for them.
At night, Wang Xue, who was unable to sleep and was reading with candles, was knocked on the door.
"Girl, it's me."
