Chapter 62: Assassination

On the carriage back home, Chi Wanwan picked out the residue and sniffed it, and used the system to analyze the ingredients inside.

There was a sudden sound of fighting outside the carriage, and immediately after, a black-clothed assassin broke through the curtain and reached directly at the medicine residue in Chi Wanwan's hand, with a clear purpose.

"Who sent you?" The carriage was narrow, and Chi Wanwan could only dodge to the side.

I don't know if it's her delusion, I feel that the black-clothed assassin is a little bluffing, grabbing his hands around, but always avoiding the dregs in her hands.

When the coachman heard the movement and rushed in to protect her, the black-clad assassin immediately retreated and disappeared.

"Princess, do you get hurt sometimes?" The coachman was carefully selected by Xiao Junmo and knew martial arts, he asked with a worried face.

"It's okay, let's go home." Chi Wanwan took another look at the place where the assassin had disappeared, and always felt that this assassin was weird.

Back at the palace, Chi Wanwan told Xiao Junmo about it.

"Lord Wang, I always feel that the assassin doesn't really want to snatch the dregs, but deliberately acts."

Chi Wanwan seriously recounted her conjectures, but Xiao Junmo regretted it on the side.

"Blame me for the improper arrangement, go and pick a few good subordinates, their duty in the future is to protect the safety of the princess."

Xiao Junmo ordered his entourage, glad that Chi Wanwan was safe and sound, otherwise, if the capital was overturned, he would also find out that person and cut it with a thousand knives.

"Lord Wang, did you listen to me?" Chi Wanwan tugged at his sleeve and said dissatisfied.

"Hear it, don't worry, I will send someone to investigate this matter. I believe that the emperor has also gotten the news, so let's see how he reacts first. ”

Xiao Junmo indulged and let Chi Wanwan pull his sleeves, thinking about the mastermind behind this matter, the intention.

Knowing that Xiao Junmo took this matter to heart, Chi Wanwan didn't dwell on it and continued to study the ingredients of the slag.

In the afternoon, the test results came out, and Chi Wanwan returned to the palace and found that there were many more guards along the way, which seemed to be a protective means made by the emperor.

"Your Majesty, the poison in the medicine residue is the same as the poison you have."

Chi Wanwan put the medicinal materials selected from the medicinal residue and the blood drawn from the emperor's body into two white jade bowls, stirred them with water, and caught two mice.

Let them drink the water, and after a while, the two mice died in the same state, bleeding from the seven orifices, and the emperor was frightened by this tragic situation.

"Your Majesty, the poison you have is ingested little by little, no more and no less each time, and it will accumulate to a certain extent, and the rat has a weak ability to withstand it, so it only needs a little toxin, and it will be fatal."

Chi Wanwan explained to him.

"So, if I hadn't been treated in time, I would have died violently?"

The emperor's heart was turbulent, and he was afraid, so he immediately asked people to find this clue and investigate.

Chi Wanwan's mission was completed, and he returned to the palace to continue to recuperate for Xiao Junmo.

The emperor's investigation intensified, and the results were soon released, and all kinds of evidence pointed to the king of the Eastern Wu domain.

"It turned out to be him, for so many years, the court has fattened them, and they have the heart to deal with me." The emperor was shocked and disbelieving, but he pretended to be angry.

After the ancestor led people to conquer the country, in order to commend the meritorious heroes, he gave some generals to conquer with him, gave them the title of vassal king, and implemented the hereditary system.

At first, the land of these feudal kings was not large, but as the ambitions of the descendants gradually expanded, small divisions continued, and the lands of some feudal kings were forcibly annexed.

They are also getting stronger and stronger, posing a threat to the imperial court, and the emperor has always had a headache about this matter, so he just took this opportunity to suppress them, and it was best to uproot them.

The emperor had a calculation in his heart, but on the surface he was angry about his poisoning.

"Notice, April is the Queen Mother's Thousand Autumns, let all the vassal kings prepare for entering Beijing in advance, this congratulations, every vassal king must arrive, otherwise, it will be regarded as a blatant rebellion against the imperial court, and directly wait for the army to be exterminated."

The emperor's eyes are ruthless, and his country cannot be shared by others.

When his words fell, a small eunuch outside the door sneaked away and came to the East Palace, perceiving everything he heard Xiao Jingce.

"Is that true?" Xiao Jingce was not at ease to confirm again.

"Back to the prince, what the slave said is true, the emperor asked the vassal king to enter Beijing in advance, and he looks like he is already dissatisfied with the vassal king." The eunuch replied respectfully, his eyes rolling.

"Thank you for your hard work, do things for this palace seriously, and this palace will naturally not treat you badly." Xiao Jingce asked someone to give him a stack of silver, and the eunuch put it in his hand and checked it, the portion was very large, and he smiled.

"It is the honor of a slave to be able to do things for the prince." The eunuch took the silver and left with a red face.

"Go, invite this famous miracle doctor in the rivers and lakes." Xiao Jingce gave the dark guard a portrait.

With a draft in his heart, since he learned that the emperor began to track down the real murderer, he was worried every day.

After thinking about it, he simply broke the cauldron and came up with a set of golden cicadas to get out of his shell, and threw this crime on the body of a vassal king.

Anyway, my father has long been dissatisfied with the vassal kings, and this is a good opportunity to clean up these vassal kings.

Thinking back to what the eunuch said, it seems that the emperor has set his sights on the king of the Eastern Wu Domain, which proves that he is safe, in this case, it is time to find an opportunity to deal with Chi Wanwan.

Xiao Jingce's eyes were fierce, Chi Wanwan had done bad things to him several times, and if he didn't get rid of this scourge, his plan would be difficult to achieve in one day.

The next day, Xiao Jingce took a doctor to find the emperor.

"Father, this is Doctor Li specially found for you by your sons, who is quite famous in the rivers and lakes, and has dealt with all kinds of strange diseases."

"I'm sure he'll have a quick cure for your condition." The crown prince was sincere, and this move was also to repair his relationship with the emperor.

The emperor's heirs are thin, except for him who can inherit the unification, the remaining few little princes are mostly young, and some are still in infancy.

If it weren't for Xiao Junmo's jealousy, Xiao Jingce was really worried that the emperor would deliberately leave the throne to other princes.

A thought flashed in Xiao Jingce's heart, worrying all day long, why not let these princes disappear, the emperor only has one son, so naturally he has no heart to think about others.

"It's rare for the prince to be filial, so leave this person behind."

If it weren't for the fact that no one was cured, the emperor would not have accommodated Chi Wanwan everywhere, and now that someone is sleepy and someone sends a pillow, the emperor will naturally not refuse, and it is best not to be limited by Chi Wanwan.

Thinking that he had been a little cold to the prince these days, the emperor said a few more words to him to express his affection.

"It is a blessing for my son to be able to share the worries of my father and the emperor." The prince's posture was very low, and he pinched the emperor's shoulders with his heart, and the relationship between the two eased a lot at once.

"Father, since you have the help of Doctor Li, Princess Jingnan's side, there is no need to trouble, right?"

Xiao Jingce took the opportunity to inquire and let Chi Wanwan continue to treat the emperor, which was not conducive to his next plan.

"This is reasonable, then pass on the decree and let Princess Jingnan rest." With a spare, the emperor didn't need Chi Wanwan, and readily agreed to Xiao Jingce's proposal.
