441: What is your confidence?
The news of Fan Xian's assassination has spread through the streets of Kyoto.
After experiencing a series of rumors and incidents last time, this Xiao Fan of the Supervision Yuan has become the focus of discussion in tea shops and restaurants.
No matter what era it is, people's gossip can't be stopped.
What's more, this is still gossip about the royal family of the Daqing Dynasty.
Therefore, this assassination on the outskirts of Beijing quickly overshadowed many matters discussed in the imperial court, and the court meeting on the second day even fell into a strange stagnation because of this extremely sensitive assassination incident, and Emperor Qing on the throne was just silent and did not say a word.
According to the grapevine, His Majesty the Emperor, who heard the news yesterday, smashed his favorite blue-glazed teacup in the imperial study.
And Prince Jing took advantage of the night to enter the palace and stayed in the imperial study for a long time before leaving, his face was extremely gloomy.
Emperor Qing's expression was calm.
Everyone can clearly feel the turbulent waves hidden under this silence.
But not everyone was afraid of the wrath of the Son of Heaven, at least those who planned and carried out the assassination on the outskirts of Beijing, as well as those with evil intentions who had secretly given convenience, were obviously prepared to deal with this situation in advance.
It's just that the only surprise is that Fan Xian survived this assassination situation.
Many people in Kyoto are speculating about which force went crazy and dared to use the power of the army to attack Fan Xian.
Most people set their eyes on the eldest princess Li Yunrui.
It seems that only this woman with crazy genes in her bones dares to act rashly at such a time, and there are many people in the capital who know the secret of the matter between Li Yunrui and Ye Qingmei back then.
"Of course it wasn't Hongu's doing."
"Although this palace also wants to see that little guy from the Fan family die."
Li Yunrui was bored and half lying on the soft couch, this is the palace of the second prince, but Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is like the master of the palace, she is not seen at all, her eyes are slightly narrowed, and her whole body exudes a lazy meaning.
The second prince, Li Chengze, sat in the position of the lower hand and did not say a word.
As if he knew what the second prince was thinking at the moment, Li Yunrui glanced at him and said with a smile: "How can this palace use such a blatant assassination method to deal with Fan Xian, naturally there is a way."
"But that's actually a pretty good way... Direct, decisive, fierce, and leaves no room for error."
A dazzling smile bloomed on Li Yunrui's face.
The second prince's brows furrowed slightly.
Originally, he also thought that it was the eldest princess who did it, and the second prince who grew up in the palace also knew a lot about the events of the year from his mother's side, and it is estimated that only the eldest princess in the whole Kyoto has the courage, strength, and is not afraid of His Majesty the Emperor's liquidation afterwards.
But I didn't expect Li Yunrui to deny it directly.
The second prince nodded silently, but the doubts surrounding his heart became heavier and heavier, and finally he couldn't help but ask, "Who did it?" Could it be that he is really a big man in the army? Did Dean Chen go crazy too?"
Li Yunrui looked at the second prince with a slight mockery: "Your Majesty is furious, so I quickly found out the origin of that batch of military objects, numbered crossbows 439 to 499, which belong to... Under the control of the Ye family, this batch of armaments was turned into the canyon on the outskirts of Beijing on the way to Dingzhou."
"This hot thing is your daughter-in-law's mother's thing."
The second prince shook his head directly: "It can't have anything to do with the Ye family, a full seventy small military crossbows, even the Ye family didn't dare to make such a big move when they were still serving as a garrison in Kyoto in the capital, not to mention that the current Ye family has a lot of power in their hands because of various incidents, how can they hide it from the eyes of the garrison and the Supervision Yuan."
The eldest princess smiled surgingly, "In Qingguo, there is nothing impossible."
"The anger in Your Majesty's heart must be vented, and the Ye family is now blocked in this outlet, otherwise
Find the real mastermind behind it, or you will carry this big black cauldron again."
The second prince fell silent instantly.
At the beginning, the assassination of the Hanging Temple with many loopholes has not yet come out of the convincing Eucalyptus Sect to this day, and at that time it was the black cauldron on the back of the Ye family, and now even if the Ye family has been driven to Dingzhou, it has actually fallen from the sky with a bigger black cauldron that can kill people.
Who is reasoning with this!
The second prince can only choose to help the Ye family, who are also "family", as much as possible.
Although the power of the Ye family is not as prosperous as it was at the beginning, it still has considerable strength in the army, and the second prince naturally does not want this in-laws to encounter an unwarranted disaster because of Fan Xian's affairs, after all, the major events in the future will still need the Ye family.
"Please aunt protect the Ye family."
The second prince's tone was extremely sincere.
Li Yunrui shook his head: "This time the matter has touched Your Majesty's bottom line, I understand the temper of this emperor's brother, if he really can't find who made the move in the end, he will make everyone in the court unhappy."
"Auntie... Everyone in the court was extremely puzzled, but my aunt must have an answer in her heart."
Li Chengze is eager to know how many old kings are hidden under the muddy waters of Kyoto.
At this moment, he actually admired Lu Ze, who had not yet returned to Kyoto, it was not a secret that the prince of the East Palace went to Dadong Mountain to play, and Li Chengze could vaguely see something called "confidence" from the East Palace.
Li Yunrui's eyes exuded a different brilliance.
As the second prince said, the eldest princess did see a lot of things.
Putting aside Li Yunrui's inherent and hard-to-change shortcomings, she is still the person with the most keen judgment of the political situation in the entire Kyoto.
"Just need to be sure of something."
"The assassination of Fan Xian was not done by our side, and the prince would not do such a thing either."
"Then everything has become clear, the assassination of Fan Xian has nothing to do with party struggle, and it has nothing to do with the supreme throne."
"So this assassination is not for some kind of profit, but simply for personal vendetta."
Listening to Li Yunrui's words, the second prince continued to taste the deep meaning: "Personal enmity..."
"Fan Xian's ability to attract big figures in the military to do something to him has nothing to do with him, because the Supervision Yuan and the military have always been good friends, so it has something to do with the people around him... Side... Relationship... Leaf?"
The second prince's face was full of horror, and he quickly understood the key point.
This leaf, not the other leaf.
Li Yunrui's voice sounded again.
"Why did the military do it to Fan Xian because of that woman back then? Because he knows that if Fan Xian really takes the position in the future, even if he becomes the president of the Supervision Yuan, he will do a lot of things because of that woman."
"And this kind of thing is something that the big men in the military don't want to see."
"Therefore, the person who is hiding behind the back is related to Ye Qingmei's death back then."
Li Yunrui had a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was chatting with the second prince about his parents, but the truth of the facts was gradually vividly displayed in front of the second prince, although there was no evidence to prove the words of the eldest princess, but both of them were convinced that this was the truth!
The royal family of Qingguo is a group of weirdos.
Each of them seems to be incredibly sure of how they feel.
"That big man was able to survive safely from the bleeding eucalyptus in Kyoto, and he was still sitting on a high position in the Privy Council, so Ye Qingmei's death should not be so simple... Hahahaha, the people in the royal family are really a group of cold-blooded, ruthless, ruthless and unrighteous madmen, I really admire him."
A little fanaticism flashed in Li Yunrui's eyes.
And at this time, the second prince, who had already understood what the eldest princess meant, the cold sweat on his forehead flowed down his skin, and the lips of the second prince couldn't help but control
There was a slight tremble, on the one hand, he was amazed by the intelligence of the eldest princess, and more importantly, because of what she said later, the second prince knew who he was referring to in his aunt's mouth.
Behind this assassination on the outskirts of Beijing is the dark seed that was buried in the bloody soil many years ago.
Until Li Yunrui left, the second prince in the room still did not come to his senses for a long time.
"If you know the terrifying facts, can you still wander around Dadong Mountain so leisurely?"
"Your confidence... What the hell is it?"
......
Lu Ze and his entourage finally slowly stepped into the realm of Kyoto.
The woods on the outskirts of Kyoto seem to have hidden the smell of blood from the recent past, and this assassination was carried out on a massive scale and with direct ferocity.
And Fan Xian was able to escape from such a terrifying killing situation, on the one hand, because the Supervision Institute secretly arranged some unknown methods, and on the other hand, it was this Fan Xian, who had cultivated the domineering exercises, and had unconsciously stepped into the ranks of the Nine Rank Masters.
Even Lu Ze had to sigh that the pig's feet of this Qing Yu Nian plane did have two brushes.
In the three years since he came to Kyoto, not only by relying on those fathers and stepfathers, but also by his own strength.
Of course, in Lu Ze's eyes, Jiupin is actually not much different from the grandmaster.
"Ahh
"The smell of here... It doesn't smell good."
In the largest carriage behind, Lin Dabao was fanning the wind vigorously with his hand in front of his nose.
And the smart Wan'er also seemed to sense something, and asked Lu Ze, "Has something happened in Kyoto these days? The New Year has not yet risen, so it stands to reason that the outskirts of Beijing should be very lively, but when we arrived at the border of Kyoto, we did not see a single person, but there were many more soldiers patrolling."
Lu Ze patted Wan'er's hand and smiled, "It's not a big deal."
The news of Donggong's return to Beijing was quickly known to everyone.
Originally, His Majesty approved a decade to go back to Wuzhou to visit his father-in-law, but His Royal Highness spent almost twenty days, and the first month of the year was about to pass, and the court meeting had been held for more than half a month.
And the officials affiliated with the princelings hurriedly reminded Lu Ze that many major events have happened in Kyoto recently.
"Your Highness! You're back!"
"Lord Xiao Fan was assassinated, His Majesty was furious, the Ye family was severely cut in power, and at the same time, the Kyoto garrison and the thirteen city gates were cut off a lot of heads, and it is said that someone from the Supervision Yuan was also imprisoned, and the eldest princess..."
Lu Ze only felt that his head was a little big.
Speaking in front of him is Honglu Temple Shaoqing Xin Qiwu.
Honglu Temple is in charge of foreign guests, the affairs of the court, one of the nine temples,
Although the actual age is not too big, the face of this young lady looks very old, and when he speaks, the wrinkles on his face are piled up, and only those bright but joyful eyes remain.
Of course, the most powerful thing is this Shaoqing's mouth, which is extremely terrifying.
The tone is strangely fast, the rhythm is strong, the theme is clear, and the words are not bad.
This Shaoqing is a great weapon in Qingguo's foreign negotiations, even Emperor Qing knows that Honglu Temple has such a powerful person, and even once laughed that "one mouth can defeat thousands of troops", although it is a ridiculous word, but it shows the power of Xin Qiwu.
Therefore, the princelings sent this to the East Palace to explain to Lu Ze in detail the recent events.
[At present, it is the most complete and best app for listening to books, integrating 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of timbres, and it supports offline reading
Individual, but it's this mouth... It's so good.
"Your Highness."
"Your Majesty should invite you into the palace soon, have you figured out how to deal with Your Majesty's side?"
Lu Ze was stunned: "Response? What to deal with?"
Xin Qiwu hurriedly patted his thigh and hurriedly spoke: "You are twelve days late from returning to Beijing! Your Majesty is troubled by the assassination in the suburbs of Beijing, and there are countless twists and turns piled up on the eucalyptus in the imperial study, and it is said that the hand of the Hou Gonggong who is in charge of ghostwriting is about to be broken."
"Are you... Are you really not ready to say anything?"
......
In the imperial study, Lu Ze saluted respectfully to Emperor Qing.
"The son visits his father."
At this time, the palace maids and eunuchs who were waiting beside them were dismissed by Gonggong Hou early, knowing that some of the next words were not suitable for these servants to listen to, and when Prince Jing entered the palace that night, it was the same situation.
"Humph!"
"You still know to come back?"
"The dignified prince of the East Palace has been staying outside for so long."
Emperor Qing snorted heavily, with a slight displeasure between his eyebrows.
Originally, Lu Ze was not a big deal at all, but it happened that His Majesty the Emperor was in a very bad mood, and the punching bag found in the court was the Ye family and the eldest princess and other forces, but the qi inside was not enough, so Lu Ze became the best candidate.
"The retainers are really wronged."
"The main reason is that Wan'er really wants to see the scenery of the sea, she has been in Beijing for many years, plus she is pregnant for ten months."
"Erchen thought about taking this opportunity to take Wan'er out to see the wonderful scenery of Daqing."
"Dadong Mountain, the place where heaven and earth will meet the spirits, sure enough... It lives up to its name."
