Married a proud husband after farming

Chapter 957
The news of Chu Xun's assassination caused an uproar in the court, and the world mourned.

Chu Xun had to do his best, and the courtiers knew in their hearts that when he came back from Qinzhou, the Emperor of Chu would definitely make him the crown prince, and he must be a generation of wise emperors. Now that he is dead, who else can inherit the throne?
In Zichen Hall, Emperor Chu retreated everyone, only Rong Jiu and Shen Cheng.

Emperor Chu mourned in his heart, his complexion was somewhat pale, and his eyes, which were always majestic, were covered with a layer of emptiness under grief, as if he had aged a lot in just a moment.

Emperor Chu sat in a daze, and murmured: "20 years ago, I couldn't protect Concubine De Gui, and 20 years later, I couldn't protect Xun'er either. I can't protect it."

Rong Jiu's eyes were full of mist, but he comforted softly: "Father, my condolences, Seventh Brother has knowledge under the spring, and I definitely don't want to see you grieving for him so much."

"Everyone knows that the king of Chu is a gentleman, as gentle as a jade, and he doesn't like power struggles, so I don't force him. But in the end, it was this power struggle that killed him."

"Father is a good emperor, but also a good father. Whether it is for me, Seventh Brother, or King Ning, Father loves me very much."

Emperor Chu's eyes sharpened suddenly, and he asked hoarsely, "Is it King Ning? Did he kill Xun'er?"

Rong Jiu's eyes were extremely deep and quiet, and as cold as ice: "Once Brother Seven dies, he is the only one who is most likely to be established as the crown prince. As for whether it is true or not, we will only find out after investigation. Father, no matter who the murderer is, I will Will not let go."

"I will never hand over the country and the country to a cruel person who can kill even my own brother." Emperor Chu said angrily, "Shen Qing, I entrust you to investigate the case. If it is this Rebellious son, kill without mercy!"

Shen Cheng cupped his hands and said, "I accept the order."

When the two of them left the Zichen Palace, Rong Jiu said worriedly: "If you murder the prince, once you are found out, it will be a capital crime. No matter who the murderer is, you will not be allowed to find any clues. There must be someone behind. Murder, you must be careful."

Shen Cheng put her hands in his palms, and said slowly: "Although you didn't say it clearly in front of His Majesty, you and I both know that this matter must have been done by King Ning. When one is proud, when a person is overjoyed, the more he does, the more flaws he will have. Only by seeking victory in danger can he seek justice for the King of Chu."

Rong Jiu's brows were even more worried, but he said: "I will contain King Ning in Chang'an and force him to mess up. You and I are of the same mind. This time, King Ning must be made to pay for what he has done. "

Shen Cheng smiled: "My husband thought that you would persuade me not to risk my life."

The worry in Rong Jiu's eyes faded away, revealing a bright smile, and said proudly: "People live in the world, there are thousands of waves, if you don't advance, you will retreat. If you can join hands with you to weather the wind and rain, there is no need to be afraid of hardships, life and death. ?”

Who can not be tempted by such a dazzling woman?
There were ripples in her heart, Shen Cheng held her hand tightly, and in his life, he never wanted to let go again.

The two of them went out of the palace gate, and on the carriage, Rong Jiu asked suddenly: "I always thought that Brother Seven would not just die like this, my lord, is Brother Seven really dead?"

"The corpse was smashed to a bloody mess, making it difficult to identify. If it wasn't for what Amu said, no one would have thought it was the King of Chu."

"Seventh brother is more important than his own life to Ah Mu, is there any hidden secret in this?"

"Check it out and you'll know."

Shen Cheng sent Rong Jiu to Chu Wangfu, and then took Mu Feng to Yixiantian.
