"Wan Yankang?"
The eldest prince was startled and looked at Xiao Gang.
In fact, the eldest prince also had the same question in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud, or he didn't want to believe that the first battle general Wan Yankang would come directly to attack his men.
Xiao Gang nodded,
"Based on what I know about the second prince, he has now seen that you have become a popular person in the eyes of the emperor and his biggest rival for the throne. Naturally, he will do something to stop you.
Don’t forget, the second prince has planned to assassinate you many times before, but you have avoided them all. This time, I estimate that it is most likely that the second prince will join forces with Wan Yankang, or even Qin Chuan and the others. planned actions. "
Fan Chen said:
"If the person who killed and silenced him just now was the first general Wan Yankang, why didn't he just kill Liang Bao, Wang Qian and me?"
"Do you think he didn't want to kill you? He had no choice but to kill that beautiful young woman just now. His identity was exposed as soon as he took action.
This is the imperial capital, and he is assassinating people close to the eldest prince. What good will it do to him to be exposed like this? "
"Then has he exposed himself now?"
"No, there are tens of thousands of people who know the electric skills, and you didn't catch him personally, how can you prove that it must be Liang Bao who was attacked by Wan Yankang?
With Wan Yankang's fighting power, he could kill Liang Bao with one blow, but he didn't. Do you know why? "
"?"
"If he does this, you won't be able to prove that it was Wan Yankang who attacked, because with Wan Yankang's combat power, he could have killed the three of you directly, but the three of you are fine. Doesn't this mean that the murderer is not him? "
Wang Qian was extremely angry and said:
"Then let's just let this matter go?"
Xiao Gang sighed:
"What else can we do? Go directly to the emperor to complain. We have no evidence. In order to maintain the stability of the Feibao Empire, the emperor will not punish Wanyankang.
If we go to Wan Yankang privately to seek revenge, we are not an opponent at all, and we will simply bring humiliation to ourselves. "
Liang Bao took the big blood pill and rested for a while. Now he is much better and struggled to sit up.
"Your Highness, it seems that the second prince has killed us. You should be careful. Don't leave the imperial capital casually during this period. Even if you are active in the imperial capital, you should bring more guards."
"Brother Liang, thank you for your hard work. Take good care of yourself."
"Your Highness, I'm fine. I'll just rest for two days. Before I recover from my injury, you left the palace, opened the palace's defense screen, and raised the alert to the highest level. No matter how courageous Wanyankang is, he can't attack openly. From the royal palace,
In addition, the reason why he sent some of his men to assassinate us secretly was because he did not want to expose his identity. I concluded that the man who escaped would not survive tonight. "
Fan Chen thought for a moment,
"We can't just be blocked at home by them, right? Can't we tell the emperor to punish the second prince and Wan Yankang?"
The eldest prince hesitated for a moment and said:
"The second prince is the biological son of the emperor. Wanyankang is not only a member of the royal family, but also the number one general of the empire. Without real evidence, the father will not easily rebuke them, let alone punish them.
If we forcefully bring this matter up, it will only embarrass our father. "
Everyone was silent for a while, and the atmosphere was very depressing.
It had only been three days since Ji Yuan and Gong Yu were killed. Liang Bao and others were almost killed again, and they were still on the street near the palace. The ferocity and boldness of the other party were indeed intimidating.
More importantly, the eldest prince and others really have no effective countermeasures, which is really depressing.
Everyone was silent in the hall.
"Ouch, you haven't slept at all so late. It seems I didn't disturb you anymore."
came a familiar voice.
When Wanyan He and others heard this familiar voice, they jumped up and ran directly to the door.
"Brother Yang, why are you here so late?"
It was Yang Xiao who walked in.
"Why can't I come? Why, I'm not welcome?"
Yang Xiao actually arrived at the Imperial Capital in the afternoon, but he didn't come to see the eldest prince immediately. Instead, he wandered around for a while.
Originally, he was staying in an inn. He was bored and went out for a walk at night. He walked to the midnight snack street and wanted to eat something, but he heard everyone talking about something about everyone.
Someone also said that they were from the eldest prince's house.
Yang Xiao felt strange at the time, so he ran all the way over. Some of the guards at the door knew Yang Xiao, and they automatically let Yang Xiao in without asking the prince.
Yang Xiao walked to the hall and saw the bright lights inside from a distance. When he came in, he saw that the atmosphere inside was very depressing, so he said hello.
Wanyan and others let Yang Xiao into the hall.
Yang Xiao first saw Liang Bao sitting on the chair covered in blood.
"Hey, Liang Bao, what are you dressing up like? Is it the latest fashionable way to dress up?"
Liang Bao smiled bitterly and said:
"Brother Yang, please stop laughing at me. I was injured and almost lost my life. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to see you."
Yang Xiao was shocked,
"Who is so bold that he dares to fight even the people in the eldest prince's palace?"
"That's fine by me. A few days ago, Ji Yuan and Gong Yu were killed."
Liang Bao suddenly stopped talking.
Yang Xiao has a deep relationship with Gong Yu and Ji Yuan. When Yang Xiao participated in the training, he was with Gong Yu, Ji Yuan and Wang Qian. The four of them got along day and night for three months, and their relationship was very harmonious.
Yang Xiao looked at Liang Bao,
"Why didn't you say it halfway? What happened to Ji Yuan and Gong Yu? By the way, why don't you see them?"
Liang Bao lowered his head.
Wang Qian on the side whispered:
"Gong Yu and the other two were killed by others."
"Ah? When did it happen?"
Yang Xiao looked at Wang Qian in surprise.
"Three days ago, two people went out to do errands and were killed from behind on the street."
A surge of anger rose from the bottom of Yang Xiao's heart.
"Who did it?"
Fan Chen said:
"Who else? The second prince joined forces with the empire's number one general, Wan Yankang, and the God of Wealth, Qin Chuan. The three of them sent people to assassinate Gong Yu and Ji Yuan first.
Today, Liang Bao, Wang Qian, and I planned to go out for a late-night snack, but the other party plotted against us and almost died outside. "
After hearing this, Yang Xiao gritted his teeth and turned to look at the eldest prince Wanyan He.
"Brother He, how do you plan to handle this matter?"
Wanyan He was stunned and said:
"Brother Yang, you just came back and don't understand the situation. The other party is very cunning and we have no real evidence. I can't sue them in the emperor's court, so I can only endure it for the time being."
"Endure? They are all coming to kill us, how can we endure it? The lives of Ji Yuan and Gong Yu, and the blood of Liang Bao are right in front of us, how can we endure it?"
Xiao Gang saw that Yang Xiao was a little excited and quickly persuaded:
"Brother Yang, the opponent has Wan Yankang as a helper in the first battle. We can't beat him in private."
Yang Xiao gritted his teeth and said coldly:
"Brother He, do you still remember what I told you before leaving Wu Xing? If you want to seize the throne 100%, there is only one way. I didn't tell you the specific way at the beginning, so today I tell you, this The only way and the fastest shortcut is,
Kill the second prince Wan Yanying and avoid future troubles forever! "
