It's a pity that the queen didn't say anything, and the people in Fengyi Palace were also silent and didn't dare to discuss it at all.

Xiaohong flew around but didn't hear any useful information.

After all, it is such an important royal matter, and no one dares to gossip about it easily.

This made Yang Zhan helpless.

Even with the skill of controlling animals, it is difficult to obtain useful information.

But if I find that there is nothing wrong with the emperor, then the prince will not have any problems for a while.

Unless the emperor is old and confused, he will not believe that the prince sent someone to assassinate him.

Then, Yang Zhan asked Xiaohong to fly directly to Xining Palace.

The prince will stay here until he is crowned.

Yang Wu had two sons, the eldest and the third. As for the second, few people mentioned it, and Yang Zhan didn't know either. It was speculated that he died in infancy.

So now, only the third prince lives in Xining Palace, living east and west of the prince. This probably makes the third prince feel that the throne may not be unattainable.

Xiaohong flew to Xining Palace and saw that Xining Palace was still brightly lit.

In the main hall, there were still voices.

Xiaohong flew over and heard someone say: "Your Highness, the prince sent someone to assassinate the queen. This time the prince's position will be deposed."

"Your Highness, there is no need to worry. Although the Queen is injured, I heard that she is not in serious trouble. Now that the Crown Prince has made this mistake, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, will definitely regain your trust!"

The third prince looked at the two people who had just spoken, with a dark face: "Do you really think so?"

"Your Highness, it has been confirmed that this was done by the Crown Prince. Could it be that..."

"Definitely not my eldest brother!"

The third prince spoke with certainty.

"Your Highness, no matter whether he is really the prince or not, but now the finger is pointed at him, this is always a good thing for the Third Highness, and the prince may not be able to clear away the suspicion!"

The third prince looked coldly and glanced at the two men: "Do you think this is aimed at the prince?"

"this……"

"Humph, this is aimed at this prince!"

"How could it be possible? The assassin is from the East Palace. Why would he target His Highness the Third?"

At this time, Zhang Wuxiang, who had been silent until now, spoke up: "Two generals, this matter is indeed aimed at the third prince!"

"How could it be aimed at the third prince? Is this a bitter trick devised by the prince himself?"

Yang Jin snorted coldly: "Do you think my father is really old and confused? Even if my eldest brother is an idiot, he will not assassinate my mother at this time. After this incident, do you think my father will believe that it was my eldest brother who sent Assassinated?"

"this……"

"What the hell, if he doesn't believe that my eldest brother sent someone to assassinate him, he will think that someone deliberately framed my eldest brother. Who is most likely to frame my eldest brother?"

The third prince's words made the other two people's expressions change slightly.

However, Zhang Wuxiang interjected: "You will also suspect that His Highness arranged it. In this way, His Majesty will be even more inferior in His Majesty's eyes!"

"Yes, this is definitely aimed at me. My eldest brother is so cruel that he even took huge risks to frame me!"

Yang Jin had a dark face and gritted his teeth.

Zhang Wuxiang frowned and said, "Your Highness, I'm afraid the prince did not do this."

"Huh? If not him, who else could go against this prince?"

The third prince frowned, his eyes sharp.

"Now that the prince has regained His Majesty's appreciation, he is in full swing. There is no need to take risks! What's more, I'm afraid this matter can't be found out clearly. Then the prince will always bear the stigma of being a treasonous person. Even if the emperor doesn't believe it's him, he still can't. The gain outweighs the loss for him."

Zhang Wuxiang said, frowning: "Ever since the incident, I have been thinking about who it is. I hope that the imperial city will be as chaotic as possible."

"Mr. Zhang, can you figure out who it is?"

Zhang Wuxiang frowned: "The person who can arrange this matter is extremely powerful. There are many such people in Tiandu City, and there is also Yang Zhan among them. It is very possible!"

"Yang Zhan? Are you saying that he is helping the prince to make a dangerous move and completely defeat me?"

"Yes, Yang Zhan has such ability and courage. If he succeeds, His Highness may no longer have the possibility of succeeding to the throne!"

Yang Jin frowned: "If it's really him, what he's doing now is not enough. What do you think he will do next?"

Zhang Wuxiang's expression became serious: "This person's behavior is unpredictable and difficult to predict, so His Highness the Third Prince must be careful and cautious now. If you don't do anything in the near future, nothing will go wrong!"

Yang Jin suddenly realized: "So Mr. Zhang asked me to refuse the negotiation with Feng Linguo just to avoid being tripped up?"

"Yes, fortunately, His Highness the Third Highness listened to my advice, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. This is the news I just received!"

"what news?"

"Tianwu Army General Yu Jin and three thousand cavalry have been besieged by Feng Linguo's Kamikaze Army for three days. If there are no reinforcements, the entire army may be annihilated at any time. Feng Linguo is using this as a bargaining chip to negotiate!"

Yang Jin's expression changed slightly: "Why is there no military report about such a big event?"

"That's the problem. If it was Yang Zhan's handiwork, it would be normal. Once the talks collapse, Feng Linguo and Daxia will inevitably become enemies. Then the chance of Yang Zhan being used again will be extremely high, and His Highness should also look at it. After he came out, His Majesty admired Yang Zhan very much and gave Yang Zhan three years. Even at the end, His Majesty did not want to raise the butcher's knife himself. This shows that His Majesty still has expectations for Yang Zhan. He may even not want Yang Zhan at all. die!"

Having said this, Zhang Wuxiang's face was extremely solemn: "Now His Majesty is obviously unwilling to depose the Crown Prince. His Majesty hopes that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can take control of the government. Yang Zhan is the most powerful support for the Crown Prince. Therefore, Your Majesty wants the Crown Prince to be able to take power smoothly. It’s possible to reuse Yang Zhan again!”

Yang Jin's face turned dark when he heard this: "My father is so far-sighted as the eldest brother, it's hateful!"

"Your Highness, wait and see what happens and make other preparations!"

After saying that, Zhang Wuxiang looked at the two generals: "Two generals, you still have to prepare, you don't have to, but you must have a knife in your hand!"

"Don't worry, we have already prepared!"

Yang Zhan, who had been secretly peeking through Xiaohong, was momentarily confused.

Damn it, this is what is called when people sit at home and the pot comes from the sky?

Damn it, this stupid guy is lying on his back!

But when I think about it carefully, it’s even more terrifying.

The water here is too deep!

Yang Zhan had previously thought that the third prince was responsible for the news that Yu Jin and the three thousand cavalry were trapped.

Now he is not the third prince at all.

The Queen was assassinated, and it was not a cruel trick carried out by the Third Prince and the Queen.

Well, Yang Zhan's previous guess that the third prince would do evil to the three women in Tianlao now seems to be invalid.

In addition, Yang Zhan did not believe that the prince was responsible for the assassination.

The person behind this is extremely capable!

Yang Zhan felt a little tired and asked Xiaohong to fly back by herself.

Although this beast control technique is powerful, it also consumes a lot of spiritual energy.

Not long after, Yang Zhan felt like he couldn't take it anymore.

After opening his eyes, Yang Zhan was filled with doubts.

This game is becoming increasingly difficult to understand.

Suddenly, Yang Zhan looked at the door: "Who!"

"Second Master, it's me!"

It was Yu Shu's voice.

Yang Zhan was stunned: "It's so late. Is there something wrong with the princess?"

Squeak!

The door has been pushed open.

Yu Shu walked in alone, carrying a lantern.

Yang Zhan was a little helpless. Although he was upright, he was not afraid of the shadow.

But this late at night, the two of them were alone, so they should avoid suspicion.

However, it was helpless to think that the princess was too worried about the prince and would act in a hurry.
