Chapter 122: Another Demon
"Father-in-law Hong rest assured, the orphan club has been keeping an eye on it recently. ”
Chu Mo knew in his heart that this was his father conveying some kind of signal to himself.
Now that Li Jin is not by his side, only Xue Xue is the only one to protect his safety, which is probably the reason why Emperor Chu is worried.
When Li Jin left the palace, he would definitely be known to Emperor Chu, but he didn't say it explicitly, but just sent Hong Sifeng to remind him of one or two.
It's just that Chu Mo will be worried about assassination?
"The words have been brought, the old slave is leaving!"
Hong Sifeng saluted and left in a hurry.
After Hong Sifeng left, Chu Mo pondered for a moment.
The corners of his mouth muttered: "Everything, when Li Jin comes back, the truth will be revealed, and Mr. Gu feels that this matter is inseparable from Youzhou." ”
Zhao Ziyun and Xue Xue glanced at each other, not understanding what Chu Mo meant by this, so they could only look at Chu Mo's back quietly.
......
On this day, Chu Mo didn't leave the East Palace, and he was waiting for Li Jin to return.
It wasn't until late at night the next night that Li Jin finally came back, and he didn't even have time to rest, so he was pulled by Chu Mo for questioning.
"How's it going?
Chu Mo hurriedly asked, behind him, Xuexue and Liluo, as well as Qin Lang and Zhao Ziyun, were all on both sides.
"Your Highness, the situation in Youzhou is not optimistic, the people are miserable, and the local situation is suppressed and cannot be reported, resulting in no one in the palace knowing. ”
Speaking of this, Li Jin was already indignant at Nanping.
He glanced at Chu Mo deeply, swallowed his saliva and continued: "When the old slave went, the assassin of Youzhou was already dead, and I couldn't know the specific situation, but I found out that the order to send troops to suppress the people was personally issued by the military department Shangshu, and it was also the meaning of the eldest prince. ”
"In addition, I found the figure of the Xiliang people in Youzhou, and the old slave suspects that there are also Xiliang people involved in this matter!"
Speaking of this, Li Jin paused and looked at Chu Mo's reaction.
"Xiliang?" Li Luo frowned.
How could the Xiliang people infiltrate Youzhou?
Chu Mo frowned and asked, "When you went, how were the people of Youzhou in mood?"
This is exactly what the old slave wants to say, when the old slave goes, the local people in Youzhou rise up one after another, like a mob, not only killing the officials of the Imperial History Mansion, but also counterattacking the Youzhou army! I am afraid that in the near future, Youzhou will become a gathering place for mobs, and even rebel. ”
The old slave also found out that all this was because Xiliang fanned the flames in Youzhou and changed the hearts of the people. even released that if Emperor Chu is not worthy of being a great rebel for Emperor Chu and others, the entire Youzhou will be completely chaotic!"
Li Jin said angrily, his tone was very excited.
To be honest, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Li Jin wouldn't have believed that Youzhou would suffer this catastrophe.
"Bastard, this great prince, it's really a pity to die!"
Zhao Ziyun understood the beginning of the matter, clenched his fists at this moment, and his face was even more angry.
Xue Xue was also resentful, and proposed on the side: "Your Highness, why don't we report this matter to Your Majesty and let Your Majesty punish him?"
As for Liluo, he gritted his teeth even more: "The eldest prince will not die, and the people's grievances will not disappear!"
"I'm afraid that the eldest prince is dead, and this thing will be even worse!"
Chu Mo had already turned up a monstrous anger in his heart.
But he still sighed helplessly, from the moment he brought down the eldest prince, this chess game had already begun to be played.
If the prince dies, Xiliang will definitely go south.
The eldest prince is not dead, but the people's grievances are hard to eliminate!
Even if Emperor Chu sent people to suppress the mob in Youzhou, it would inevitably have a series of serious consequences.
This consequence is unbearable for today's Chu State.
What's more, the military department Shangshu and Liu Mu are dead, even if this matter is brought to the fore, there is no witness, and it is far from being able to convict the eldest prince based on rumors alone.
"Hmph, since you want to play, then Lone will play with you to the end!"
Chu Mo sneered at the corner of his mouth, as if he had made up his mind.
Turning his head, he fixed his gaze on Liluo's body.
"Lone wants you to do something, if you don't want to, when Lone hasn't said it. Chu Mo spoke softly, and his tone was very serious.
The snow was on the side, and he was suddenly unhappy: "Your Highness, what is there to do with the snowfall, no matter how bad it is, there is Li Jin, why let her go." ”
In this regard, Chu Mo shook his head again: "This matter has to be her." ”
Li Luo looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and agreed: "You save my life, I will do one thing for you, and we will settle it." ”
"Good!"
Chu Mo nodded heavily, and then, his expression was stunned.
"Lone wants you to assassinate the Four Princes, but! You must only fail but not succeed, you must let the Four Princes know that you are the killer of the Shadows, and show him your face!
"What does that mean?"
When others heard this, they were immediately puzzled.
Even Liluo was full of doubts.
The corners of Chu Mo's mouth rose, and he patiently explained: "This is called luring the enemy deep, the matter of Youzhou, since it is related to the eldest prince, it is bound to have the figure of the four princes, the news of the assassination of the eldest prince by the shadow was suppressed by the father, and outsiders don't know, but once someone assassinates the four princes, the four princes will definitely be frightened." ”
"Assassination at this juncture, it depends on how the four princes choose. ”
"Once he reports to his father, it will mean that the mastermind behind Youzhou has something to do with him! Tomorrow, I will go to the Four Princes' Mansion with Liluo. ”
Chu Mo's face was gloomy, the account of hundreds of thousands of people in Youzhou should always be returned!
Hearing this, several people's eyes suddenly widened, and their faces were full of disbelief.
Assassinating the Four Princes and taking the Assassins with them?
Looking at the surprised eyes of several people, Chu Mo pretended to be mysterious and bought a pass: "Don't worry, you will know tomorrow!"
Seeing this, Li Luo did not hesitate at all, directly agreed to Chu Mo, and set off immediately.
Claim to be able to complete the mission tonight!
It seems that tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
......
The next day, early in the morning.
Sure enough, as Chu Mo thought, the four princes carried dozens of Eight Realm masters to protect themselves from entering the palace.
The government and the opposition were in an uproar in an instant!
Emperor Chu looked at each other even more at this.
Busy asking the four princes what happened, the four princes told the truth and told Emperor Chu the news of his assassination last night.
When Emperor Chu heard this, he immediately frowned, and asked the ministers with a straight face!
"The military department Shangshu was killed, the fourth prince was assassinated, the right minister, what do you think?"
Emperor Chu's voice could not be heard with joy or anger.
Sit quietly on the dragon chair and look at Yuwen Chenghua.
Hearing this, Yuwen Chenghua took two steps forward, bowed, and said, "Perhaps, you can ask His Royal Highness the Prince." Whether it is the murder of Shangshu of the Ministry of War, the death of Liu Mu, and the assassination of the fourth prince, all of this is caused by the incident of the eldest prince, and the crown prince is the party. ”
"The reason for this, you can ask the prince!"
Hearing him say this, Emperor Chu's eyes changed.
Yuwen Chenghua said a few words, and then pointed the spearhead at Chu Mo.
Emperor Chu frowned, and before he could speak, the ministers asked one after another: "Please confront the prince!"
Seeing this, Emperor Chu was helpless, and glared at Yuwen Chenghua fiercely: "The right minister thinks that this matter is related to the prince?"
"Wei Chen doesn't dare! It's just that the assassination incident is not trivial, and if it can't be found out in time, I'm afraid that similar things will happen in the future. Yuwen Chenghua lowered his head, he couldn't see his expression, and his tone was neither humble nor arrogant.
"What the right minister said is very true, please come to the prince to confront him. ”
The ministers below once again admonished.
These people naturally stand in line with Yuwen Chenghua.
"Prince!"
Emperor Chu's face was gloomy, and he almost roared out in anger.
Next to him, Hong Sifeng bowed to Emperor Chu.
Hurry up and run towards the gate of the main hall and go straight to the East Palace!
