Chapter 326: Looking for an Alchemist
Zhao Heng buried Xiaofuzi, and the next person told Zhao Heng that Xiaofuzi was the little eunuch who had been following King Zhao, and he was King Zhao's favorite person, and now that Xiaofuzi was dead, it would inevitably arouse King Zhao's suspicion.
Zhao Heng fell silent!
It wasn't that he didn't know that this move would cause trouble, but Xiao Fuzi's death made him a little unprepared.
"What to do? You can tell me how we can cover up the fact that we killed Xiaofuzi, and now you are all dumb? Isn't it quite capable on weekdays? Let me tell you, if the news of our killing of Xiaofuzi reaches the ears of King Zhao, the entire Hengwang Mansion will die at the hands of King Zhao. Zhao Heng said fiercely.
Zhao Heng's words fell, and no one in the group of strategists could open their mouths to give him advice, so they could only be silent.
Seeing this, Zhao Heng couldn't help but shake his head, and sighed in his heart!
At this moment, there was a pain in his leg, which made him frown again.
Since the death of Xiaofuzi, Zhao Heng's left leg has been in pain for some reason.
"The third prince, my subordinates have a word, I don't know whether to say it or not." At that moment, a strategist spoke and broke the silence.
"You say." Zhao Heng said lightly.
The subordinates believe that Xiaofuzi's death has happened and cannot be changed, and the top priority is to find a scapegoat and place the crime of killing Xiaofuzi on him, and the prince was deceived by him. I don't know what the three princes think? The counsellor spoke slowly.
"That's a good idea." The third prince, Zhao Heng, nodded and said.
"We have to find a scapegoat and plant the death of Xiaofuzi on him. In this way, not only can the three princes be cleared of suspicion, but also the whole incident can be put to an end. There was a cunning in the strategist's eyes.
Zhao Heng pondered for a moment and nodded, "This is a good idea. So, how do we do it next? ”
A smile tugged at the corner of the strategist's mouth, "First of all, we have to investigate all the people who have been in contact with Xiaofuzi, we have to find out the person who is most likely to be caught, and then let him bear the charge." ”
Zhao Heng took a deep breath, "Okay, then do as you say, and I will let my people investigate all this." ”
The strategist smiled again, "In addition, we must grasp the direction of public opinion, and we must convince everyone that this scapegoat is the murderer of Xiaofuzi." ”
Zhao Heng's eyes sharpened, "I'll let them do this." As long as that scapegoat is found, I believe the whole thing will be a lot easier. ”
The strategist nodded, "My subordinates will arrange all this." ”
In their plans, Fuko's death became a mystery.
Everyone began to speculate and debate about who would have done such a thing, and as they investigated and worked hard, the truth gradually emerged. A guard named Zhang Qian was pointed out as the murderer.
In an uproar, the third prince Zhao Heng stood up, "This Zhang Qian is the murderer of Xiaofuzi." Because he was in love with Xiaofuzi, but he couldn't get her love, he was resentful and killed her. ”
People began to discuss, is this Zhang Qian really the murderer?
But with the guidance of the strategist, public opinion gradually turned to Zhang Qian. People began to believe that this Zhang Qian was the murderer, and the third prince Zhao Heng was innocent.
Zhang Qian was arrested and taken to the execution ground.
Under the watchful eye, he was executed, and with his death, Xiaofuzi's death became a thing of the past, and Zhao Heng successfully got rid of suspicion.
However, does everyone really believe that this Zhang Qian is the murderer?
Not necessarily.
Some people still have doubts in their hearts, but in the face of the power of this royal family, they have chosen to remain silent.
And the strategists successfully completed their mission and got the rewards they wanted, and in this game of power, everyone became pawns and was manipulated to move forward.
The third prince, Zhao Heng, successfully cleared the suspicion, but his heart did not feel relaxed because of this.
He wants to kill not only an inconspicuous little eunuch like Xiao Fuzi, Zhao Han, Zhao Ji...... Even King Zhao, as long as it is someone who blocks his way, Zhao Heng wants them to die, and his way is a road to power.
Zhao Heng's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and the road of power stretched in front of his eyes, leading to the top of the endless.
He knew in his heart that to go further on this road, it would take not only wisdom and courage, but also that strong determination and determination to do whatever it takes.
Xiao Fuzi, Zhao Han, Zhao Ji, and even King Zhao, they are just stumbling blocks on the road to Zhao Heng's power.
will not let them go because of their insignificance, but will crush them mercilessly because of their weakness.
This is Zhao Heng's path to power, a road full of blood, cruelty and ruthlessness.
Zhao Heng's ambition is like a prairie fire, burning more and more.
He is no longer satisfied with the status quo, he wants more, he wants power, he wants to be the supreme ruler of this Zhao country. He always felt in his heart that only through unremitting efforts and brutal means could he realize his ambitions.
Zhao Heng was no longer satisfied with assassination and conspiracy, and had already begun to openly challenge the authority of King Zhao, weakening King Zhao's power step by step in the court, and letting his power gradually penetrate into all corners of the country.
This is also the reason why King Zhao has always been jealous of Zhao Heng, King Zhao is suspicious - does Zhao Heng want to kill the king?
Behind Zhao Heng's ambition, there is a deep fear and uneasiness. Other ministers in the court, princes and nobles, and even ordinary people can become obstacles in his path to power.
Therefore, he must always be vigilant and not allow anyone to challenge or resist.
In this bloody and cruel world, ambition and the road to power are becoming more and more blind and fanatical, and if you make one wrong step, you will lose everything.
Now in Zhao Heng's heart, Zhao Zhaohan is still the most difficult person for him to deal with, but what can he do...... Zhao Han has been hiding, and he has not confronted him head-on, and three thousand dead soldiers can't kill Zhao Han, how can this make Zhao Heng feel at ease?
Now Zhao Han never appeared, even if Zhao Heng wanted to kill him, he ripped off his crotch and had no way to start.
Maybe Zhao Heng's asshole is too small, even if he wants to fart, he will beep...... Beep beep.
Since it can make a sound, it will startle the snake!
Snakes will be scared away by him and hide to save their lives, not to mention that Zhao Han is a person with a big asshole, and he will not make a sound when he farts but will stink, since he is a human being, he will think, and since he can think, he will not easily fall for Zhao Heng.
Only fools will be fooled!
And the big fool will go a second, a third time...... And also happy to go on the nth when, in the yin. The boat has capsized countless times in the ditch, and there will still be another boat, there is no doubt that there will be a next time, and I will never get tired of it!
And Zhao Hanxian is not a fool, his strength is still above Zhao Heng!
Therefore, every time Zhao Heng tosses and turns, he knows that Zhao Han is still alive in this world, and every night when he can't sleep, there is Zhao Han's shadow in it.
It was another sleepless night, and the third prince, Zhao Heng, pulled all the strategists out of bed and gathered all the strategists in King Heng's mansion.
"Tonight, this king can't sleep, and you don't want to sleep, you are all my advisers, I raised your group of people not to let you be used as rice buckets, now is the time to use you, you all tell me, now that Zhao Han is hiding, how can we kill him?"
The eyes of the third prince, Zhao Heng, shone with determination and expectation. He knew that this was the only way for him to reach the throne, and it was also the decisive battle he had made for the imperial power.
He firmly believed that as long as the strategists could provide effective strategies, they would be able to find Zhao Han and eliminate him in one fell swoop.
The advisors were awakened from their slumber, their faces tired and confused. However, when they faced Zhao Heng's expectations, they understood that they had to come up with all their wisdom and strategies to contribute to the three princes' proposals.
"Third prince, Zhao Han is hiding now, but we are not his opponents, now that Zhao Han has become a cultivator, we can only kill the crown prince Zhao Han if we get a stronger cultivator." A strategist said.
Zhao Heng was silent for a moment, then nodded and said: "I understand, now we can only wait for the opportunity, we can't act rashly, get rid of Zhao Han and we will get everything, otherwise we will be doomed, and it is even more difficult to find a powerful cultivator." ”
All the strategists responded in unison, and someone said: "In the past, we failed to refine the Dragon Soul Scatter, but now it is much easier to get the Dragon Soul Scatter, but I don't know whose hand the Dragon Soul Scatter came from, if we find the alchemist who makes the Dragon Soul Scatter to provide us with better pills and increase the speed of cultivation, we can also cultivate powerful cultivators." ”
Zhao Heng frowned and said, "You mean, use the pill to increase the speed of cultivation, cultivate cultivators, and then let the cultivators kill the crown prince Zhao Han?" ”
Hearing this, the strategist nodded, "That's exactly what it means, Zhao Han is already a cultivator, if we want to kill him, we can only find the alchemist, and then we get the pill from the alchemist." ”
After Zhao Heng heard this, he was silent for a moment, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, the strategist's suggestion was not groundless, however, a little carelessness could cause turmoil.
"This matter needs to be considered in the long run." Zhao Heng groaned, "You can't be in a hurry. ”
Seeing that Zhao Heng had made up his mind, the strategist didn't say more, the reason why Zhao Heng hesitated was because this decision would involve too many people and must be considered carefully.
Zhao Heng discussed with the strategists countless times, and finally decided to find an alchemist, and bribed them with a lot of money to refine the elixir for themselves.
However, many of these alchemists are charlatans, but they are just here to eat, Zhao Heng had suffered a loss once before, and he didn't want to eat a second time......
Where is the alchemist who can really refine the best elixir?
Zhao Heng was in a hurry!
Suddenly, he thought of something at the auction, where Wang Xi might know where the alchemist was.
"Wang Xi?"
Zhao Heng finally had a clue to find the alchemist, and he wanted to ask someone to invite Wang Xi to Heng Wang's mansion, but considering that it was not appropriate to let Wang Xi come to Heng Wangfu, Wang Xi would inevitably refuse Zhao Heng's invitation directly because he didn't want to reveal the identity of the alchemist.
Therefore, Zhao Heng decided to go to the auction alone to meet Wang Xi.
If Wang Xi refused to tell Zhao Heng the secret of the alchemist, Zhao Heng would definitely kill him.
