"What?"
All the princesses present looked at Yuan Ping in extreme surprise. No one could have imagined that this man would poison his father Khan's lunch. This was a serious crime of assassinating the royal family. Compared with the treason committed by the Fox clan back then, All are more serious.
"Father, your body..." The eldest princess glanced at Yuan Ping with great disgust, then looked at Jie Li with a concerned expression.
Jie Li shook his head slightly, "I'm fine. Thanks to Mr. Gongsun's superb medical skills, all the poison in my body has been eliminated."
Hearing this, all the princesses breathed a sigh of relief.
The third princess's face was still a little pale. She looked at Yuan Ping's dejected look and couldn't help but feel moved in her heart. She asked: "Father Khan, the poisoning of King Khan is not a trivial matter. It is definitely not something that a small royal chef can plan and kill." According to my daughter, there must be someone behind this person who carried it out."
Jie Li glanced at the third princess with admiration, nodded with a smile and said: "Father Khan has the same view as you, but this person is a tough guy. No matter what, he insists that the person who planned and implemented the poisoning is the one who planned and implemented the poisoning. No one was secretly instigating him."
"Is this happening?" The eldest princess frowned slightly.
The other princesses also looked at Yuan Ping with a slight frown. If this was true, then even if there was really someone behind this person, they would not be able to find out.
But at this moment, Jie Li said again: "In addition, Ben Khan also just learned from Jiulong Mansion that this person is also the murderer of your two royal brothers!"
"What?" This news was even more shocking to several princesses.
Everyone looked at Yuan Ping with cold eyes, as if they wanted to skin him and cramp him. Especially the seventh princess Lang Yun who usually has a good relationship with the ninth princess Lang Yue. At this moment, she wants to kill this person immediately.
It was because of this person that Concubine Ling and Lang Yue were slandered as fox demons by the Imperial Master. It was also because of this person that Lang Yue was put under house arrest and even in danger of death...
"Father Khan, since the real culprit has been caught, have Lang Yue and Ling Fei..." Lang Yun hesitated to speak and spat out a few words.
Jie Li nodded, "I was about to say this. Now that the real culprit has been caught, Concubine Ling's charge of killing the two royal brothers should be cancelled. However, it remains to be seen whether she and Lang Yue are remnants of the Fox clan's rebellion in the past. According to the research, Ling Fei’s wanted order and Lang Yue’s house arrest will not be canceled for the time being. However, the matter of Lang Yue’s execution can be postponed for the time being, and we will make a decision after the identities of the mother and son are clear. "
"This..." Lang Yun originally wanted to say something, but after seeing Jie Li's completely unquestionable eyes, he had to step aside silently.
The other princesses also looked at Jie Li silently and did not speak.
"Okay." Jie Li saw that the daughters had nothing to say, so he waved his hands slightly, "Father Khan is also a little tired today. If you have nothing to do, you can leave."
Hearing this, the princesses looked at me and at you, all of them were a little confused about Jie Li's move. It's not that he has some doubts about his request to leave, but that he has doubts about the entire convening process tonight.
All the princesses were called together with such great fanfare, but they ended up leaving without saying a few words. It always felt a bit anticlimactic.
However, even though everyone had doubts in their hearts at this moment, no one dared to speak out. Everyone left the study with the doubts in their hearts.
…
…
After the eldest princess left the study, she returned to her bedroom expressionlessly.
Huajian is waiting for her inside.
"Your Highness, you are back." Huajian looked at the eldest princess with a slightly gloomy face and frowned slightly, so he poured her a cup of tea and handed it to her hand, "Princess, what's wrong with you? Could it be... …His Majesty the Khan summoned you this time and announced something bad?”
The eldest princess picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea. Instead of answering her question directly, she asked Huajian, "Huajian, do you think Yuan Ping is a tough person?"
Huajian was a little confused, looked at the eldest princess, thought for a moment, and said, "Yuan Ping, although his martial arts is not very good, he has a dull temperament and is usually taciturn. I don't know much about her. So I don’t know if he is a tough person. Why would the princess ask him, what happened to him? "
The eldest princess put down her tea cup and sighed, "He was exposed."
Huajian was shocked!
"Then he..."
The eldest princess nodded slightly, "Yes, all the things he was responsible for were known to Father Khan, including poisoning Father Khan's lunch and adding dead wood grass to the tea of the two prince brothers. These Father Khan Just told us everything."
The look of surprise on Huajian's face became more intense.
"So...our plans have all been exposed. Then, Your Highness, Princess..."
The eldest princess shook her head slightly, "I don't know much about this matter either."
Huajian was surprised, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
"What does your Highness mean by this?"
The eldest princess shook her head slightly, "To be honest, even I don't know now whether Father Khan already knew it. Because just now in the study, he said in front of all the sisters that Yuan Ping insisted that he did it. No one was betrayed. But..."
"But your Highness, you don't believe it, do you?"
The eldest princess nodded, with a hint of panic on her face, "Yes, you and I are both aware of Father Khan's tricks, and no one knows whether what he said is true or false. It would be best if it is true, but if it is false, and do we have any If proper precautions are taken, the consequences will be disastrous."
Hearing this, Huajian sighed slightly as she looked at the confused look on the eldest princess's face. It was only then that she finally realized how terrifying this barbarian king was.
With just one sentence, the eldest princess, who usually executes plans without mercy, can be thrown into chaos. This strategic ability is truly terrifying.
Although she knew that it was absolutely not advisable to mess up at this moment.
But she also understood the eldest princess's concerns.
Just as the eldest princess said before, if everything Jieli said in front of the princesses today is false, then his purpose of doing this is very clear, which is to make the eldest princess become careless.
For her own safety, the eldest princess must be prepared, otherwise, she may die without knowing how she died.
"What do you think, Your Highness the Princess?" Huajian asked again.
The eldest princess frowned and sighed for a long time.
"It is better to believe that there is something than to believe that it is not. In short, no matter what, we should be prepared in advance. I am afraid that the original plan will be launched in advance."
Huajian nodded, "It's not a problem to be early, but Your Highness Princess, since Your Majesty Jieli already knows about Yuan Ping, then the Ninth Princess..."
"Don't worry about Jiumei and Zhong Suling. Father Khan has already stated his position before. Until there is no definite evidence to prove that they have nothing to do with the Fox clan, their mother and son will not be able to succeed..." At this point, the eldest princess looked suddenly. Startled.
Huajian looked at her strangely.
"Yes... why didn't I think of that before..." After a moment, the eldest princess smiled happily.
"What did Your Highness think of?" Huajian asked with a smile.
The eldest princess smiled and said: "That's right, just come over here."
Huajian came forward, the eldest princess smiled mysteriously, and then told her ear what she had thought of in detail. After listening, Huajian also smiled happily, "Your Highness, this plan is very clever. In this way, it can be reversed." Turning passive into active, what a brilliant idea!”
The eldest princess ignored her flattery and said: "This matter needs to be done as soon as possible. In addition, the original plan also needs to be prepared as soon as possible."
Huajian nodded, "I will get this done as soon as possible."
But the eldest princess shook her head, "You don't need to take action in this matter, I will arrange other people to do it."
Huajian was surprised.
But he saw the eldest princess smiling slightly, revealing a smile full of meaning. After whispering a few words to Huajian again, Huajian nodded firmly, "I understand, I will take action tonight."
…
…
Early the next morning, Jieli's study.
Jieli's face was as dark as water. After sitting at the desk, he looked at Chen Yutian and Taigong Yuanlin who were standing in front of him.
Just now, Gongsun, who went to the third princess's palace to perform acupuncture on her as usual, was shocked to find that the door of the palace was locked from behind when he came to the door.
After the last few days of contact, Gongsun also had a certain understanding of the third princess's temperament. He knew that she did not lock the door of the room like the second princess when sleeping. Therefore, after seeing the door locked, Gongsun intuitively understood that the third princess Something happened.
As a result, when he opened the door and entered the palace, he was shocked to find that... the third princess was not in the palace.
But after asking her personal maid, she was told that the third princess had not gone out. As a result, the third princess also disappeared mysteriously like the second and eighth princesses.
After Jie Li learned about this, he was furious and directly called Master Taigong, who was responsible for the security of the Royal City Prison, and Chen Yutian, the master of Jiulong Palace who assisted in investigating the case.
After looking at the two of them lightly, the gloomy look on Jie Li's face slowly disappeared, replaced by a face that was ashen and as cold as frost.
"Taigong..." he said softly.
"I'm here." Yuan Lin quickly prostrated on the ground and said yes.
"Ben Khan, how about you give me three days to find out everything and find the three missing princesses?"
