Feng Heming

Chapter 241 Disaster on Xiao Qiang
Jiang Yuanxi understood Fifth Brother's meaning as soon as he heard it, "Fifth Brother, do you mean that the person who sneaked into the Weisheng Palace to commit murder may be on par with me in skill, maybe even stronger than me?"

Both Jiang Boyong and Jiang Boxin were very aware of Jiang Yuanxi's skills. They asked themselves if they were not capable of entering the palace to assassinate, but they felt that Wu Niang might not be able to do so.

Jiang Yuanxi lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then shook his head, "Fifth brother, I have never competed with outsiders, and I don't know how skilled other people are, and the masters are among the people, so how can I know who is better than me?"

Jiang Boyong was in such a hurry, he really wanted to go all out and tell Wu Niang that the person who killed King Wei Sheng was probably Li Zhongwen.

Fortunately, reason is still there, suppressing this impulse.

Jiang Boyong really wanted to remind Jiang Yuanxi to be vigilant against Li Zhongwen, but he didn't know where to start. He had to let people not find the loopholes. After thinking hard, a flash of light flashed in his mind, and he finally found a breakthrough.

"Wu Niang, do you still remember the fire that trapped you in Chongjiu?"

Jiang Yuanxi was surprised by Jiang Boyong's words, how did he talk about it so well?

After Jiang Yuanxi nodded, Jiang Boyong stabilized his mind, took a deep breath and asked, "Then what do you think of the skill of Zhong Langjun who saved you back then?"

Jiang Yuanxi and Jiang Bojin looked at Jiang Boyong together, and the astonishment in their eyes clearly revealed their thoughts.

"That Mr. Zhong Lang is very skilled." Jiang Yuanxi said affirmatively, and then asked Jiang Boyong, "Fifth Brother, do you doubt Mr. Zhong Lang?"

Jiang Boyong had already prepared the draft, "The Li family brought in an eldest daughter who was the eldest daughter of Mr. Zhong Lang, and it was you instead, do you hate it?"

Jiang Yuanxi murmured, "Of course I hate him, but it would be too arbitrary to conclude that it is him because of this. There are too many people who have enmity with the royal family. Why did Fifth Brother guess that it is Mr. Zhonglang?"

Jiang Boyong knew that this matter should not be rushed, as long as Wu Niang could raise vigilance against Li Zhongwen, "Probably because I think he is very dangerous."

These words aroused Jiang Yuanxi's approval, "He is indeed very dangerous, it's better not to provoke him as much as possible."

But Jiang Boyong understood that this was impossible, sooner or later the two would have to face each other.

"If the Holy Majesty can't find the murderer, I don't know how much blood will be shed in the capital." Jiang Yuanxi sighed.

Jiang Bojin shrugged his shoulders, "It's nothing more than that the people in Prince Weisheng's mansion were buried with him. The master humiliated his ministers to death, and King Wesheng was killed in the mansion. These people can't protect their master, they really deserve to die."

For Jiang Bojin, the guards in the mansion are used to protect the master. If the master can be killed under your guards, if you don't die, who will die?
"Wisson King is dead, and I'm about to leave for Danyang County. Summon Mr. Chang and let him come back." Jiang Yuanxi urged, "Another thing, let Dongpu escape from the palace as an excuse."

The capital was under martial law for three days, and no clue of the murderer could be found. Six of the escaped students were arrested, and the remaining two could not be found no matter how hard they looked. They all felt that the two students were suspicious, but they were not caught. People have nothing to say.

These few days Chen Xiong was extremely furious, whoever did something wrong, the palace servants would be executed with a stick, and the courtiers would be fined, it was like a firecracker that exploded at one point.

However, it is not an option to leave Chen Chao's corpse all the time. The weather is very hot, and if it is not buried, it will stink.

After seven days of inactivity, Chen Chao was finally buried.

On the day when Chen Chao came out, Chen Xuan ordered the guards in the mansion to disguise themselves and hide most of them in the crowd, while the rest followed behind him. Almost all the guards belonging to the Prince's Mansion were dispatched.

The others thought that the nobles were in danger of being assassinated, and they didn't think it was wrong for the prince to bring so many guards, but they didn't know that Chen Xuan was trying to kill his father.

When Chen Xiong heard the news of Chen Chao's death, he mourned unceasingly in the palace, and even lost his composure one after another. Apart from Chen Xuan's jealousy, a surge of joy filled his heart.

He was absolutely sure that he had killed Chen Chao, and he did the right thing!

If Chen Chao does not die, his crown prince will change hands in time.

Chen Xuan felt that according to how much his father doted on Chen Chao, his father would definitely go to Weisheng Palace to take a last look at Chen Chao, and if he was intentional or unintentional, he would be caught off guard and kill his father, he would be the new emperor!
Chen Xiong was indeed planning to go out of the palace to see his son for the last time, it was a godsend, because Chen Xiong had been mourning too much these days, his appetite was poor, and when he got up early, he was weak and groggy, he made a wrong foot and fell.

The court pronounced the verdict urgently. After the pulse diagnosis, it was said that the dragon body was very hungry and its feet were crooked. Chen Xiong had to eat even though he was sad.

Chen Xuan waited left and right in Prince Weisheng's mansion, only waiting for other people to come, but his father was nowhere to be seen. Seeing that it was time for the spirit to emerge, there was still no sign of the emperor traveling.

He knew that his father would not come.

Lifting his robe, he waved his hand to stop the person who was about to seal the coffin, and stepped forward to look at Chen Chao in the coffin. He saw that Chen Chao was wearing the prince's court clothes, and looked very dignified, but unfortunately, the needle and thread around his neck broke the gap. kind of momentum.

Chen Chao's body was separated, he obeyed Chen Xiong's order, and found someone to connect his head with a needle and thread, so the round of stitches was ugly and tight.

Seeing Chen Chao like this, Chen Xuan thought of his arrogance of building the Xuanguang Palace in his previous audacity. The more he looked at it, the happier he felt. It's too obvious, the rippling in the eyes is pure joy.

Too many people saw this scene, even if it was only Chen Xuan's emotional outburst for a moment, and then he restrained his emotions, he was still reported to Chen Xiong.

Chen Xiong was so angry that his face was livid, and he threw things and cursed, "You bastard! I knew he had always disliked Ah Chao, and now that Ah Chao is dead, he didn't care about brotherhood at all, and dared to stay with Ah Chao. Laugh at him in the mourning hall! You bastard!"

Yue Huarong's heart skipped a beat as he listened to it, and a daring idea emerged in his mind.

He is a person who is good at seizing opportunities, and there is a look of hesitation on his face, and obvious hesitation in his tone, "My lord, Huarong has something to say, and I don't know if I should say it or not."

Facing Yue Huarong, Chen Xiong managed to suppress his anger, "Say, I won't blame you."

Yue Huarong hesitated for a moment before saying: "Accordingly, the crown prince is King Weisheng's biological elder brother, so he should feel sad for King Weisheng's untimely death, but he just smiled in King Weisheng's mourning hall, No matter how you look at it, it is abnormal, Your Majesty, maybe the death of King Wei Sheng is a disaster for Xiao Qiang."

Is it important that the Prince killed King Wei Sheng?It doesn't matter at all, as long as Chen Xiong doubts the prince and makes them fight each other.

Yue Huarong thought coldly in his heart.
