Married a proud husband after farming

Chapter 1164
Shen Cheng told Rong Jiu that the person was already dead: "It looks like he committed suicide by hanging from a beam, but there are two strangle marks on his neck. It is obvious that he was strangled to death and hung on the beam."

After hearing what he said, Rong Jiu frowned: "In the palace, one always worships the high and tramples the low. After Xiao Ruo was abolished, King Ning didn't have much influence in the palace, but he can not only bribe eunuchs and imperial physicians, but also Killing people silently in the palace is really strange."

Prince Yun understood in an instant: "Princess, what does the princess mean, there is the handwriting of the Xiao family behind this?"

Concubine Shu looked at Rong Jiu with a dazed expression, but she was a little surprised in her heart: "After the case of Concubine Jing, the Xiao family's influence in the harem has been wiped out, and the Empress Dowager is under house arrest in Shoukang Palace. How did you get out? hand?"

With a cold voice, without the slightest emotion, Shen Cheng said slowly: "The Empress Dowager Xiao has been in the palace all her life. Although she has been imprisoned, this method is still fierce. Back then, she was able to act in front of her father and all the officials of the court. In front of him, to assassinate Xiao Jue in the Tai Chi Hall, it is so easy to kill an eunuch and an imperial physician."

However, Wei Taifu was a little puzzled: "The Xiao family and King Ning are in such a situation, why do they still help each other?"

Rong Jiu smiled slightly, looked at Emperor Chu on the dragon couch, and said, "Of course I don't want King Ning's murder of his father to be exposed so early."

Su Guogong's eyes were shocked. After several people looked at each other, they asked in amazement: "Does the Xiao family want to support King Ning's enthronement? Will it be uprooted?"

"Prime Minister Xiao is a scheming man, so how can he be so kind, but if he wants to take it, he must give it first."

Rong Jiu sneered, his expression was indifferent, but his eyes were full of unseen emotions.

"Once King Ning ascends the throne, I am afraid that the Xiao family will expose his crime of murdering his father before the throne is hot. If he turns against him, wouldn't it be justified? At that time, tens of thousands of troops will attack the city, and we will be together with Mrs. Xiao later." Yinghe, control the courtiers and the palace, even if you adults want to fight back, you have already lost the opportunity."

Rong Jiu spoke slowly, except for Prince Yun and Eunuch Zhao, the others were terrified.

After the astonishment, Grand Tutor Wei was furious: "Tens of thousands of troops? The Xiao family actually raised private soldiers? Traitors, traitors!"

Su Guogong's face also turned serious. If Rong Jiu hadn't said it himself, he would have found it hard to believe that under the eyes of Emperor Chu, the Xiao family had raised an army of tens of thousands.

Rong Jiu seems to be acting out of order and following her heart, but everything she does has a deep meaning. Su Guogong asked: "The princess went to Panlong Village this time, but did you find the place where the Xiao family hid soldiers?"

Rong Jiu nodded, "Yes", turned his face, and asked Prince Yun: "How is the casting of the cannon?"

Lord Yun said: "I have already built one, but I haven't tried its power yet."

Rong Jiu curled his lips into a smile: "Tomorrow, we will give it a try, so as to shake the mountain and shake the wolf ambition of the Xiao family. When the cannon is fired, the sound is like thunder."

Shen Cheng looked at her indifferently, Rong Jiu paused, subconsciously raised his hand to caress his upper abdomen, and smiled at him with the corners of his lips pulled, then looked at everyone, and continued: "Since the prince knows the method of use, I won't go tomorrow, if the Duke and Taifu are interested, they can go to the Shenji Camp to see it."

"it is good."

Yun Jin brought firearms and captured Linfen City within a day. Su Guogong and Wei Taifu had seen the power of firearms earlier, and their faces showed excitement.
