Li Zhao was shocked, one of the three princes? Are they going to kill themselves?
This is a bit unbelievable. Prime Minister Feng Quji, Imperial Censor Feng Jie, and Taiwei, the first two people have many contacts. Although the relationship is not very close, it is not a life-or-death enemy. As for Taiwei, he has almost no contact with this person. , let alone hatred.
If it wasn't hatred, then he was hindering them. This makes sense. When Zhangtai Palace changed, he became an obstacle, but that's not right either! He is just a businessman.
As for the emperor's secret edict, no one knows about it. Why do some thoughtful people want to guard against themselves?
This is a guess, and there is also a guess that the masked man lied in order to alienate the relationship between him and San Gong. This is not because he is suspicious. In fact, the masked man answered too simply, without any professional ethics of an assassin.
But no matter what, someone wants to kill him, and anyone who threatens him must die.
"Keep the strong men and kill the others."
Li Zhao spoke sharply.
This frightened several masked men. They immediately knelt down and begged for mercy. They showed no professional ethics as assassins, or they were not professional assassins at all.
Puff puff!
Wu Quan struck quickly, and several people were furious.
It's not that Li Zhao doesn't want to continue asking, even if he continues to ask, he won't be able to find out anything. They are just assassins, and how much can assassins know.
"Go back and take the train to Xianyang."
The reason why I didn't take the train before was because there were too many people and it was more comfortable to ride a horse. But since someone wants to kill me, I have to be careful.
Wu Quan and the others didn't say much, and immediately shouted, sandwiching Li Zhao in the middle, they ran on the cement road again.
As soon as he arrived at Shanglinyuan, a servant came over to report that someone was looking for him, and she was a woman.
Li Zhao was confused, who could it be? It seems that he doesn't know many women.
After seeing the woman, Li Zhao was very surprised and trembled with excitement because the woman was Qiuxiang. However, he was only excited for a while and quickly looked left and right, but did not find Yin Man.
Suddenly, there was a panic in his heart. The absence of Yinman meant that Yinman had really left. However, how could Qiuxiang come here after Yinman had left? Normally, their master and servant were always inseparable.
Before Qiuxiang could speak, he quickly asked: "Qiuxiang, where is the princess?"
Maybe Qiuxiang had endured it for a long time, but when she saw Li Zhao, she burst into tears, and her emotions for the whole day burst out.
"General Li, save the princess quickly. The princess was kidnapped by Shangguan."
"Shangguan?" Hearing this name again, Li Zhao's anger boiled up. Moreover, this person actually kidnapped Yin Man, which made him unable to control himself.
"He dares!"
Li Zhao roared. He had never been so out of control before. Even if he learned that he was not the prince, he was not in such a mood. At this moment, he seemed to have lost control, his eyes were bloodthirsty, like a beast.
"Master, please calm down! What we need to do now is to find the whereabouts of the princess." Wu Quan saw Li Zhao acting like this and quickly persuaded him. He was afraid that the young master would be impulsive and ignore everything. He would be in trouble if he went out to find Shangguan with his sword in hand.
"General Li, what should I do? How can the princess be tortured like this?" Qiuxiang cried, showing the deep love between master and servant.
Li Zhao slowly calmed down after hearing Wu Quan's words.
"Where were you kidnapped?"
He had to ask clearly before he could carry out the rescue accurately.
"It's just a few miles away from Shanglin Garden."
"When did this happen?"
"Yesterday!"
At this moment, Li Zhao looked extremely calm, his eyes as deep as the sea.
Indeed, it is time to calm down now. Not to mention that someone wants to kill him and he needs to calm down. He needs to calm down even more when Yin Man is captured. In fact, when you calm down and think about it, the finger points are pointed at one person, that is Xiang Gong. This person has never appeared but The one who is strategizing.
Shangguan kidnapped Yin Man just to get himself, so Yin Man is safe for the time being, and there is no news from the vast sea of people telling him where to rescue Yin Man. Presumably Shangguan disappeared after taking Yin Man away. It has been a month As time goes by, it is harder to find it than to reach the sky, so what we need to do now is to break the situation first.
Only by breaking Xianyang's situation can Shangguan be lured out, or maybe Xiang Gong can be lured out.
So, after settling down Qiuxiang, he walked non-stop to the train platform.
The train had a VIP carriage, and it was specially designed for him and the emperor, so he got into the VIP carriage.
He arrived in Xianyang in less than an hour. He had no intention of showing up in a big way, but chose to enter an inn in a low-key manner, and then quietly came to the trading house.
Since his uncle was taken away by Feng Quji, only the housekeeper has been managing the business.
The trading house has grown bigger and bigger, and its business has spread to every corner of Xianyang. Of course, the land of the Six Kingdoms has also slowly penetrated.
With such a huge machine, trying to find out information is much better than a skinny dog alone.
"Butler, send out manpower to inquire about the situation in the palace. Don't miss any news."
After seeing the butler, he immediately ordered the butler to do it.
When the housekeeper saw the young master's expression, he didn't dare to neglect, so he went to make arrangements.
Although the housekeeper arranged to go, he was not idle. He immediately sent someone to find Skinny Dog and informed him that he was in the business.
Compared with the trading company, one advantage of Shougou is that he can freely enter the palace. This also depends on the flowers and materials sent at that time. As long as he can freely enter the palace, it will be more accurate to find out inside information.
A trading house is always a trading house, and where business is done, there are often only hearsay reports. Of course, there are also some officials who are doing business quietly, and even if they know something, they may not dare to say anything.
He regretted it for a moment.
At that time, he offended too many people, and as a result, he had almost no reliable people in the palace. Shang Xin was okay, but he accompanied the emperor in Shanglin Garden, which was nothing.
And Zhang Han, he had to find a way to contact Zhang Han.
A few days later, there was finally some news.
News 1: There are rumors in the palace that His Majesty Bintian’s body is being scattered in Shanglin Garden.
News 2: Hu Hai succeeded in seizing the throne, became the crown prince, and is choosing an auspicious day to succeed to the throne.
News 3: Hu Hai ordered Zhang Han to lead the army to Mangtang Mountain to quell the uprising, and won a great victory. However, he was dismissed because he did not obey the order and returned to the court on time.
Each of these three pieces of news was earth-shattering. After hearing this, Li Zhao smacked his tongue and secretly laughed that some people really couldn't wait! However, at the next moment, there was an inexplicable sense of crisis.
He read it was disadvantageous to Shanglinyuan.
Emperor Bintian must have done it deliberately, with the purpose of making Hu Hai the crown prince and succeeding to the throne. To succeed, the real emperor must be the real Bintian, and to make the emperor Bintian, the only way is to attack Shanglinyuan. In other words, if In order for Hu Hai to successfully succeed to the throne, the first thing he had to solve was Shanglinyuan.
In fact, we can see some clues from the word "wandering".
The emperor was in Shanglin Garden instead of living in exile. Living in exile seemed a bit serious. This means that Shanglin Garden abused the emperor's body.
Definitely a big crime.
If they really hold on to it, Shanglinyuan will be destroyed by Hu Hai one day.
Since Hu Hai successfully became the crown prince, it proved that Feng Quji could not stop them. I wonder if Feng Quji still has the power at this moment.
Moreover, if Hu Hai becomes the crown prince, can he still be reinstated with the emperor's secret edict? He began to doubt, not to mention that Zhang Han had been dismissed. Even if a capable officer was reinstated, it would be a false post. Anyone who was not Hu Hai would never be able to control the military power.
It seems that the hope of relying on the city defense army to restore the situation has become bleak.
However, as long as Hu Hai gets a firm foothold, the next person who will be unlucky is Shanglinyuan. How could the things he worked so hard to manage be destroyed so easily? He must fight back.
Just as the emperor mentioned in the secret edict 'kill thieves'.
