Chapter 428 The problem left to Emperor Shengwen! (Please subscribe, please vote!)
King Pingyuan is the uncle of Emperor Shengwen. He is a member of the older generation and has not been involved in government affairs for many years. He also has high prestige in the military.
Recalling this information, Xiao Ran frowned. The Nirvana Holy Pill was obviously used to treat syphilis. Could it be that he was also infected with syphilis? Or maybe he took action this time to save the prince behind him?
With his status, if he wants the Holy Blood of Nirvana, he can ask Emperor Shengwen for it openly and openly. No matter how good the treasure is, it is still a treasure. With his face, Emperor Shengwen will not refute it. He was rewarded with treasures, but now he chose to steal from the Ministry of Household Treasury.
This matter is definitely not that simple!
Even if it was King Pingyuan who did it, there is still a huge conspiracy hidden behind it.
I thought of this.
Xiao Ran looked at him coldly, not knowing what was going on. Facing his eyes, Wu Lihou panicked again, as if facing the greatest terror in the world, he pressed his palms to the ground in panic. , retreated back again, shaking his head as he backed away: "What, what do you want to do?"
"I gave you a chance, but you don't know how to cherish it! You still want to be petty."
See this.
Wu Lihou got up from the ground and hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to beg for mercy. He burst into tears. There was no dignity left in him. He was not even as good as a dog: "Really! I didn't lie to you. It's really Pingyuan." The king ordered me, he told me that His Majesty is about to die, and as long as I am willing to help, when it is done, he, he will make me the king of the opposite sex."
Xiao Ran grasped the key point, this is the key.
If there were no huge benefits, it would be impossible to instruct a prince to work for him on such a big case.
But there is still a little doubt, when will Emperor Shengwen die? How come he hasn't heard anything about it?
With the power he currently controls, if Emperor Shengwen is really going to die, he will know about it as soon as possible.
From this perspective, there is a huge conspiracy hidden here.
Either he wants to plot rebellion, or the prince behind him wants to attack Emperor Shengwen.
Xiao Zhou also knew the seriousness of the matter and asked in a deep voice: "Brother Xiao, what should I do now?"
Bang!
Xiao Ran knocked a chestnut on his head angrily and glared at him: "It's been so long, why can't you use your brain to think carefully when you encounter something?"
"Isn't this because of you? As long as you are here, I won't bother to use my brain. It's so easy." Xiao Zhou touched his head and smiled proudly.
It's not that he doesn't want to use his brain. When he is with Xiao Ran and the others, as long as he has hands, he will do whatever they say and carry out the orders to the end.
In this way, a lot of brain cells can be saved.
I have to say, this guy is quite clever.
"Let Sister Yan take care of you later!" Xiao Ran rolled his eyes at him.
Said in a deep voice.
"Take them to Prince Pingyuan's Mansion! I want to see what kind of medicine is sold in Prince Pingyuan's gourd!"
Xiao Zhou summoned the surrounding members of the Divine Sword Guard and escorted them towards Prince Pingyuan's Mansion.
The movement happening here has alarmed everyone.
Despite the obvious, no one jumped out to stop him. First, he didn't dare to, fearing that he would be involved. Second, Xiao Ran's reputation was too great. Not only was he highly skilled, but he also had terrifying power. The network of relationships we have woven over the past few years has reached a terrifying level.
This matter has nothing to do with me, so there is no need to offend him.
The eldest prince and the second prince have also received the news. In their opinion, it is just an ordinary case. Even if it is the household department that was stolen and 100 million silver was lost, plus some precious treasures, there is no need to make such a fuss. Bar?
The murderous intention actually used a sledgehammer to dispatch Xiao Ran, a big killer. While I felt that the talent was overkill, I also had doubts in my heart. Could there be a huge unknown conspiracy hidden in it?
At this point, they no longer dare to take it lightly.
What happened to the third prince and others is still vivid in their minds, as if it happened yesterday. If they are not careful, the boat can capsize in the gutter at any time. They don't want to die, and they don't want everything they have done over the years to be in vain. wasted.
Immediately sent people to investigate and issued a death order. We must find out what is hidden in this case and what ulterior secrets are hidden behind it.
In the dark.
The spies of the major forces were hiding in the dark, watching them coldly, waiting for the results to come out, and then transmit the news back as soon as possible.
Soon.
Xiao Ran and his group stopped outside Prince Pingyuan's Mansion.
The guard at the door lowered his head, his face was sad, and there was a heavy sadness. A sad atmosphere filled the air, as if something important had happened.
The leading guard hurriedly stepped forward, clasped his fists in salute, and said respectfully: "I have met the Marquis!"
Xiao Ran frowned, looking across the courtyard in the direction inside. A sad atmosphere enveloped the palace. At the same time, the expressions on their faces were also seen, and he wondered in his heart whether King Pingyuan had committed suicide. Yet?
There is no other explanation.
Moreover.
Once he commits suicide, the clues currently traced will be discontinued, and the case will end here unless there are other clues.
Before he opened his mouth, Xiao Zhou had already taken the lead and asked: "What's going on with you?"
"I, my prince, just now, had a recurrence of his old illness and passed away!"
Xiao Zhou didn't speak anymore, looking at Xiao Ran, waiting for his instructions.
Xiao Ran ordered: "Take us there."
"Please!" The guard leader made a gesture of invitation and led them into his belly.
For a while.
When they arrived at the backyard, the people from the Divine Sword Guard kept Dan Wudao and Wu Lihou outside. Their Pipa bones had been sealed. Even if they wanted to struggle, they couldn't get over the waves, let alone escape.
Xiao Ran and Xiao Zhou entered the room. In the bedroom, his family members were crying in confusion while holding his body.
Seeing Xiao Ran coming, he quickly stood up and saluted.
Xiao Ran nodded and looked at King Pingyuan's body. Judging from the appearance, it didn't look like poisoning or homicide. There were three relatively serious hidden wounds on his chest, which have now cracked. It makes perfect sense to let his life come to an end, and given his advanced age.
If what happened today had not happened and King Pingyuan was dead now, he might have believed it.
But as soon as he found evidence and found out that the mastermind was King Pingyuan, he died. No matter who it was, no one would believe it, let alone him.
Looking at his family members, he asked coldly: "Did he explain anything before he died?"
"No!"
"I'm talking to you now because I'm giving you a chance. If you don't know how to praise me, you won't be here, but in the prison. From now on, you will never see the sun."
"Master Hou, it really doesn't happen!"
"He is too naive, does he think he can protect you like this?" Xiao Ran sneered.
Turn around and leave.
A group of people looked at each other, wanting to ask but didn't dare, and made eye contact with each other.
"Brother Xiao, let's just forget it?"
"Didn't you hear what I said?"
Little Zhou Zhou patted his head and realized that King Pingyuan had been involved in the case of the robbery of the Ministry of Household Treasury, and now there was still the possibility of rebellion. Regardless of whether he died or not, his family members would suffer along with him. Palm With a wave of his hand, he immediately ordered: "Take everyone away and imprison them all in the sky prison! Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!"
The guards in the palace don’t know what to do.
Seeing that they had not yet thrown down their weapons, the men of the Divine Sword Guard had already rushed forward and killed them. Seeing this, the remaining people realized that they were no longer high-ranking servants of the palace, but had been reduced to The prisoner hurriedly threw down the weapons in his hands, put his head in his hands, squatted on the ground and surrendered.
Resist?
No, not to mention that the group of people in front of me are the ferocious Divine Sword Guards. Even if they were replaced by ordinary officers and soldiers, they would not dare to lend them a few courages.
If they really do that, not only will they die, but their families will also suffer.
Soon.
Everyone in the palace, including these servants, was arrested. Not even a dog was spared. The door was locked and sealed.
At this point, Prince Pingyuan’s Mansion is completely finished.
Guiding them, Xiao Ran walked towards the prison.
When you get to Suzaku Avenue, tell Xiao Zhou to go there first, hand these people over to Zhang Yu, then turn around and walk towards the Divine Sword Guard. Such a big thing happened, and if you move again, the prince will be involved. He He was afraid that Emperor Shengwen would jump out when he took action. After all, the relationship between them was very bad, and no one could guarantee what would happen by then.
Let Lei Yuantai enter the palace and leave the choice to himself. If he doesn't choose not to do it, he will not interfere with the subsequent matters. Even if the prince really rebels, he will not interfere and just sit back and watch. They are rebellious.
When the opportunity is right, he will take his place.
He didn't want to take this step, but only if Emperor Shengwen didn't force him.
If we really want to take this step, there are still many preparations secretly, and the army, officials, top experts, etc. must be roped in.
Arrived at the Excalibur Guard.
Seeing him coming, the guard at the door saluted respectfully.
Xiao Ran went all the way deep and stopped outside Lei Yuantai's yard.
"Go and report to the Thunder Sword Master, even if I am here."
Lei Yuantai knew that he had come, and with his cultivation, nothing could be hidden from him about what happened nearby. A close aide walked quickly and stopped in front of him: "I have seen the Marquis! ”
"Yes." Xiao Ran nodded.
"The sword master lets you pass!"
Enter the yard.
Xiao Ran entered the study. Lei Yuantai was sitting on a chair, reading a book. A pot of tea had been brewed beside him. When he saw him coming, he put down the teapot, poured a cup, placed it on the opposite side, and motioned for him to sit down. .
Walking over, Xiao Ran sat next to him.
Holding the tea cup, he pressed the tea lid a few times. The rich aroma of tea came from inside. Even before he drank it, the aroma was already coming.
Take a sip and the tea enters your mouth. The taste is fragrant and the aftertaste is endless. It takes a long time to dissipate.
After finishing a cup of tea, he took the tea and poured himself another cup. He did not drink it in a hurry, but smiled and joked: "You really know how to enjoy it."
"When you reach the realm of Lei Mou, if you want to go further in your cultivation, it will be difficult to reach the sky. The same goes for power. You are already a very powerful minister and cannot be promoted. Unless you are like you, you find another shortcut on the battlefield. Meritorious service, but this road is so difficult, not to mention that the war has not started yet, even if you want to start a fight and become a prince, you must at least make a huge contribution, or win a state." Lei Yuantai said.
After chatting.
Get to the point.
Lei Yuantai looked serious and said seriously: "How far has the investigation gone?"
Xiao Ran explained the matter simply.
Finish listening.
Lei Yuantai looked serious, with solemnity written all over his face. He was not in a hurry to speak. He stretched out his fingers and tapped the table, as if he was deep in thought. After a long time, he finally spoke: "What are you going to do?"
"What do I plan to do if it's not me? What does he plan to do?"
Lei Yuantai knew the meaning of Xiao Ran's words and also knew about the feud between them.
Otherwise, Xiao Ran’s contribution last time, which was so great, was enough to be crowned a king. In the end, he was only granted the title of "Unparalleled Marquis". This was because his contribution was too great and he could not suppress it. Otherwise, he might not be able to continue suppressing him. I don’t want to be sealed!
"I am firmly on your side."
Stand up from the chair, move your body, and sigh: "When I get old, I originally thought about taking care of myself, but I didn't expect that now I have to do some exercise."
"Don't get involved, it's not good for you." Xiao Ran shook his head.
"I'm not even afraid of you, so what do I have to be afraid of?"
Looking in the direction of the palace, his temperament changed. The elegance and easygoingness disappeared, replaced by fierce and resolute, unyielding and sharp: "Wait for my good news!"
Xiao Ran also stood up from the chair: "Want me to go there with you?"
"You were afraid that you would arouse his suspicion in the past, and he thought you were deliberately setting up a trap to catch them all."
"I'm waiting for your news."
Xiao Ran didn't insist anymore. Some things didn't need to be said too clearly, especially when they were in their position. If they said it too clearly, it would have no meaning at all.
Immediately left his yard and walked towards his own yard.
When he learned that he was coming, Shen Yiming put down what he was doing and hurried over. After entering the yard and closing the door, Xiao Ran took out a pot of Dutianzui, poured two cups, and the two of them clinked.
After finishing the glass of wine, Shen Yiming couldn't wait to ask: "How is the matter?"
"The prince is involved." Xiao Ran didn't hide anything and said it in detail.
Looking in the direction of the palace, Shen Yiming's eyes flashed, "It's really a difficult problem for him this time."
Again.
"He can only wake up for one hour every day. Even if he divides the time and uses it, there is not much time left. He has to make a decision in a short time. I don't know if it will make him angry. ”
Xiao Ran smiled, no matter what he decided, he had to do it.
"No matter what the outcome is, if you can find my place, I will just give you a shout at any time. As soon as I get the news, I will immediately bring someone over to help you."
"Thank you!" Xiao Ran raised the wine glass and clinked it with him, and they drank the wine in one gulp.
Shen Yiming asked again: "Which prince do you suspect did it?"
