Chapter 140 This Trick Still Works

"Miss, miss, come down."

Sure enough, this trick worked quite well. There was a sound of locks rattling outside the door. Qian Manduo and Xi Duo gave way to each other and looked at each other, ready to run away.

Qian Manduo just wanted to put it on his neck, but saw Xiaowu Xiaoqi come in and put a plate of hemp rope on the ground.

"Princess Wangfei," Xiao Qi lowered her head and tried her best to hold back a smile, "Your Highness has told you that if you hang yourself, use this one. This one is stronger."

"Ma'am, and," Xiao Wu took out two more things from behind, "The prince also said that if you think hanging yourself is too hard, you can use these two methods, knives and poisoned wine, I have prepared them for you."

Xi Duo was dumbfounded immediately, the lord's trick is really fighting poison with poison, even the guy is ready for the young lady.

Qian Manduo was so angry that he got down from the stool at once, knocked down the things in Xiao Wu's hands, and said bitterly: "Mother, I don't want to die now. When I pick the right time, it's not too late to die, but , go back and tell your lord that he wants me to die, but I will not die, let's compare and see who can consume more than the other."

"Xita, prepare food for Miss Ben, I want to eat."

in the library.

"My lord, the concubine's nanny made a fuss all night, and she fell asleep peacefully after eating."

Qin Xiaochu nodded: "You two continue to watch, remember, there must be no mistakes, no one is allowed to approach the room, Qian Manduo is good at disguise, you two must enlarge your eyes, She must not be allowed to leave the Palace."

"Yes, my lord."

After Qin Xiaochu arranged everything in the palace, he got into the carriage and went into the palace.

In the crown prince's womb, Su Wen came in from outside with a serious face, and hurriedly called out: "His Royal Highness."

"How about it, have you heard about the woman named Qian Manduo?" the prince said lazily, stroking the Persian cat in his arms.

"Your Highness, there was no reply from the person we sent out last time. The slave servant sent someone to inquire on his own initiative. Unexpectedly..."

Su Wen paused at this point, the prince's face darkened, he straightened up, and lowered his voice to highlight a word.

"Say."

"His Royal Highness," Suwen knelt on the ground, "all the previous people were killed, this time, this time, there is only one person left, and the person who came back reported that it was a man wearing a black mask and holding a golden ring sword." Man, the method is ruthless."

With a black mask and a golden ring sword, the prince frowned. This was clearly Kunlun who was beside Qin Xiaochu.

"what."

The prince ruthlessly threw the Persian cat in his arms to the ground, and coldly squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth, Qin Xiaochu, dare to blame the prince himself.

"Your Highness."

Yingfeng walked in from the outside in black clothes: "The subordinates have just checked the wounds. The first batch of people did not die at the hands of Kunlun, but the method seemed to be done by Qian Yefan, and the second batch of people died. When they were killed, Qianyefan's people also died at the hands of Kunlun."

Suspicion appeared in Qian Yefan's eyes, how could he get involved, could it be that he has something to do with the money.

The prince turned his back and stroked the finger on his hand. What kind of person is this Qian Manduo? He actually has something to do with Qian Yefan, Qin Xiaochu, and even Canglang Village.

The prince sneered for a while, sighed and said: "The game is getting more and more interesting. I don't believe in this evil, but I want to see who Qian Manduo is."

Su Wen stood up and said worriedly: "Your Highness, if Qian Yefan makes a move, if we continue to investigate, will it affect your Highness's cooperation with him? This servant thinks that a lot of money is not worth mentioning, the most important thing is It is your highness that you can ascend to the throne smoothly."

"My subordinates don't think so," Yingfeng said, "Your Highness, this money is full, and the reason why Qianyefan and King Xuan pay attention to her at the same time is enough to show her importance. What kind of person is Qianyefan? So why are you so interested in a woman if you don't take imperial power seriously, not to mention that King Xuan is also involved, so, Your Highness, we must not relax."

The prince nodded: "Yingfeng, I will leave this matter to you. You must find out who Qian Manduo is."

Su Wen's face was full of worry, because in her opinion, if the prince wanted to win the throne, he had to rely on Qian Yefan's power, because a woman offended Qian Yefan, and because of a small loss, she lost Qian Yefan's power. With Ye Fan's support, King Xuan would be even more difficult to deal with.

Besides, for the person Qianyefan secretly wanted to protect, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince intervened, and the relationship with Qianyefan would only become more and more complicated.

At this time, Suwen saw a little palace lady rushing in, and while the prince was not paying attention, she slipped to the door, the two whispered a few words, and Suwen returned to the inner hall.

"Your Highness, I just came to report that King Xuan has entered the palace."

The prince squinted his eyes, sighed with a sneer, and said, "A few days ago, Jiu Qiansui just persuaded my father to give Qin Xiaochu the task of suppressing the bandits in Canglang Village, so he came into the palace so soon. All the plans have been made."

Su Wen took a step forward and said, "Your Highness, why don't you take this chance of meritorious service..."

Before Suwen finished speaking, the prince raised his hand to signal him to shut up, but shook his head and said: "No, this time we let Qin Xiaochu take this opportunity to make meritorious service, but this time we We need to change the object of cooperation.”

Yingfeng frowned, and immediately understood what the prince meant.

"Yingfeng, go and tell Su Tianji of Canglang Village about King Xuan's suppression of bandits, and also tell him that if he can cooperate with this prince this time, he must be safe and sound."

"Yes, Your Highness," Yingfeng bowed and retreated.

Su Wen nodded: "Your Highness, you mean that we can work together with Su Tianji to kill King Xuan. Is this possible?"

The prince hugged the Persian cat into his arms again and said: "Suwen, Qin Xiaochu is a person that the prince knows a little bit, maybe he and Su Tianji have a little friendship, but at nine thousand years old and the throne In front of him, he will still sacrifice Su Tianji without hesitation, this crown prince will definitely let him go and never return."

Su Wen nodded in admiration: "Your Highness, when Su Tianji gets rid of King Xuan, we can also take the opportunity to destroy the entire Canglang Village at once. Your Highness will still be credited with the credit."

The prince didn't speak, but gently stroked the soft hair of the Persian cat, but his face was full of complacency.

above the hall.

"My son pays respects to Father Emperor."

"Chu'er, get up," the emperor slowly nodded his head.

Qin Xiaochu got up and stood quietly on the side. Although his father hadn't spoken yet, he already understood in his heart that he could only do it by himself.

If it was the crown prince, not only would Su Tianji and the others not surrender, they would resist to the death, in addition, the crown prince would not even give him the chance to surrender.

The emperor put down the memorial in his hand and said, "How about it, did your uncle tell you about the suppression of the bandit Canglang Village?"
