Chapter 2717 Xu Qing!

This second prince is extremely ruthless and decisive in his actions.

This is the capital of Xingyang, and he dared to send people to attack directly. It can be said that he is extremely lawless.

He is now a little worried that the other party might come for him.

Since we have taken action once, it is only natural to take action a second and a third time.

Now that the troubles around Peng Ling have been solved, is it time to solve the troubles around Peng Yu?

For Peng Kuan, isn’t Chen Muyu a huge trouble?

He doesn't have the confidence to fight against a Seven Star Realm expert yet.

He was not afraid of fighting. If he couldn't win, he would just run away. But he was afraid of being targeted by a Seven-Star Realm expert. It would be like a thorn in his back. He didn't like that feeling.

Peng Yu seemed to see Chen Muyu's worry, and immediately said, "Brother Yang, don't worry too much. If nothing unexpected happens, the Lingnan Twins will arrive in Xingyang tomorrow. By then, there will be two Seven-Star Realm experts in charge, so our safety should be safe."

  The Twin Towers of Lingnan?

When Li Xu left, he did say that he had informed the Lingnan Twin Lords. Both of them were powerful beings in the Seven Star Realm. It would indeed be much safer if such powerful beings were in charge.

At the moment, Chen Muyu didn't say anything. This kind of thing, if you can stay out of it, then don't get involved. Since Peng Yu has already made arrangements, let him make it.

……

Loufu.

"Grandpa hasn't come back yet?"

There were only three people in the meeting room: Peng Kuan, Lou Wanli and Qing Ling.

There was a heavy look on Peng Kuan's face, and he seemed to be in a bad mood.

"I guess the Fengshan Conference is coming up soon, and the Emperor wants to keep father to discuss the details." Lou Wanli answered nonchalantly, and then said, "Was it Senior Qing Ling who did what happened last night?"

His gaze turned to the leader of the Qingling Sect.

Lou Wanli was the first to hear about the assassination of the Third Prince's Mansion. At that time, he felt it was incredible, "Didn't we agree to get rid of the powerful person next to Yu'er first?"

Why did they suddenly change their target without informing him in advance? Lou Wanjiang is very angry now.

He was the one who invited this person out of retirement, but he didn't listen to his orders.

"Uncle, don't worry."

Peng Kuan waved his hand, "This matter has nothing to do with us."

"It has nothing to do with it?"

Lou Wanli looked at the two people in front of him in surprise, as if to say, don't treat me as a fool.

  In today's Xingyang City, aren't you the only two who have the ability and courage to do this?

As soon as the news came out this morning, the whole court and the public were speculating that it must have been done by your Second Prince Peng Kuan, and many officials were preparing to impeach him. Peng Kuan was very serious, "We were planning to take action against Xu Qing, but before we could, someone else took action first. This confused me and Senior Qing Ling..."

"what?"

Lou Wanli frowned and stared at Peng Kuan for a long time, as if trying to tell whether what Peng Kuan said was true or not. "Are you sure you are not lying?"

"How dare I hide anything in front of my uncle?"

Peng Kuan shook his head helplessly. "Senior Qing Ling only agreed to help once, so I had to be extremely cautious. After much hesitation, I decided to kill Xu Qing for the greatest benefit. But I didn't have time to implement it. I was still thinking about how to lure Xu Qing out of Xingyang. I didn't expect it to happen so suddenly last night."

Hearing this, Lou Wanli was also confused.

He sat back in his seat. He didn't think Peng Kuan was lying to him, and there was no need for Peng Kuan to lie to him.

"Then tell me, who did it?" Lou Wanli asked after a long time.

Peng Kuan said, "I thought about it carefully, and there are only three possibilities. First, the Sixth Brother sent someone to do it, in order to provoke a direct conflict between me and the Third Brother. But this possibility is the smallest. There are no capable people around the Sixth Brother. As for the guy named Yang, I also sent people to monitor him. He has not left the house in the past few days..."

"Moreover, unless this person is truly a Seven-Star Realm expert, it is absolutely impossible for him to have the ability to break into Peng Ling's residence and kill Xu Qing."

"Secondly, the third brother is directing and acting out this incident himself, using Xu Qing's death to stir up public opinion and provoke the court officials to criticize me. If this incident is really my fault, I think even my father would have to consider the opinions of the officials. The third brother could even use the attitude of a victim to suppress me..."

"But if that's the case, the price for the third brother is too high. If he does this, Xu Qing must really die. Otherwise, if he finds out that Xu Qing is still alive, the situation will be even more disadvantageous to him."

"Xu Qing has been with the Third Brother for a long time. He is not only powerful, but also a great strategist. I don't believe Peng Ling is willing to kill him. Moreover, it seems that no one in Peng Ling's mansion has the ability to kill Xu Qing."

"Third, perhaps there are forces at work that we cannot see."

When he said this, Peng Kuan's expression was very solemn. "We are not the only ones eyeing the throne of the emperor. I'm afraid the other brothers all have their own ideas. With me and the third brother here, they dare not express their ideas. They can only hide behind the scenes and make plans..."

"Ah."

Listening to Peng Kuan's analysis, Lou Wanjiang nodded, "No matter what the situation is, the only one who can kill Xu Qing is a Seven Star Realm. I'll have someone investigate the situation of people entering Xingyang City in the past few days, and maybe there will be some results."

“It’s extremely easy for a Seven Star Realm expert to sneak into Xingyang City. It’s okay if your uncle wants to investigate, but don’t hold out too much hope,” said Peng Kuan.

Lou Wanli said, "Right now, the most difficult situation is that in the court, under the deliberate guidance of the Third Brother's party, the ministers are bound to regard you as the number one suspect..."

"So, I need my uncle and grandfather to help me hold on," said Peng Kuan.

Lou Wanli nodded. "With your grandfather and I here, we can certainly help you suppress some of the noise, but you also need to find a way to prove yourself. We can't take the blame for nothing. We must find out who is behind this."

"Ah."

Peng Kuan said, "I am going to meet Father and tell him what happened. With Father's ability, he will make a decision. A Seven-Star Realm expert broke into Xingyang City and killed a guest official in the palace. No matter how powerful he is, he can't do it perfectly. Father will definitely find out who did it."

Lou Wanli took a deep breath and turned his gaze to the leader of the Qingling Sect next to him, "Senior Qingling, do you have anything to say?"

The leader of the Qingling Sect said, "The person who broke into the Third Prince's Mansion last night, I feel a little familiar with his aura, but I can't remember who he is for the time being!"
