Chapter 9

Three days later, Wu Sangui found the person who let the snake enter the other courtyard.

"Is this the one who let the snake enter the other courtyard and deliberately wanted to scare me?" Taomi looked coldly at the man lying on the ground in coarse cloth. He still sounded strong in physique, but he looked trembling.

Somewhat ridiculous.

Wei Xiaobao said respectfully at the side, "Back to the princess, I don't know the specific servant, but the prince called the servant to the palace and handed the man over to the servant. It seems that this man deliberately released the snake to scare the princess."

There were not only Wei Xiaobao in the room, but also the guards from Pingxi Palace who escorted the "prisoners". Hearing Wei Xiaobao's words, he laughed twice and said, "Princess Qi, since our prince has known that there are snakes in the princess's courtyard, it is night

I couldn't sleep, and I was worried about the safety of the princess every day, so I ordered a thorough investigation of the person who manipulated the snake, and then I found this person, and it was confirmed that he was the one who put the snake into the other courtyard, and this person has also admitted it."

The person lying on the ground trembled even more when he heard these words. Taomi looked at the guard who had just spoken to her, "Do you know the reason?"

"Princess Qi, the reason is still under investigation, but this person has admitted that the snake that bit the prince is his. It is up to the princess to decide how to deal with this person."

The reason is still under investigation? I’m afraid I haven’t thought of how to explain it seamlessly.

After all, as long as it is a lie, there will always be loopholes, and there are no loopholes to find in this statement.

Taomi stood up and said, "In that case, I would like to trouble Mr. Wei to ask this man on my behalf why he released a snake in the other courtyard. The crime of murdering the royal family is not to mention that he is a commoner, even King Pingxi."

You don’t have the guts to do it.”

Taomi said as she turned to the guard standing aside. His expression was as usual and there was nothing wrong with him. She had seen this man beside Wu Yingxiong before, and he must have a very high official position. Now his expression does not change. It seems that the people around Wu Sangui

But they are not simple roles.

"It's the princess." Wei Xiaobao took the order and said, squatting next to the person lying on the ground, "Tell me, why do you want to harm the princess? Don't you know that the princess is the biological sister of the current emperor? You are so brave that you dare to murder the princess?

How many heads do you have enough to chop off?"

"Unjust...injustice, villain...villain, villain, I just bought some wild goods at the market. I don't dare...I don't dare...I definitely don't dare to do anything to murder the princess. Please, princess, and

Sir, you are aware." The man lay on the ground, not daring to raise his head, and said these few words in a trembling voice. His voice was not loud, but everyone present heard it clearly.

"Princess, this person doesn't admit to murdering the princess." Wei Xiaobao glanced at the guard standing next to him, and saw the guard shouting, "Such a villain even admitted it in Pingxi Palace, but when he got to the princess, he

If you don’t admit it, you are obviously afraid of the princess’ punishment, and I also ask the princess not to tolerate such scoundrels.”

Taomi sat back down. The room was not big, and there were only a few people present. Apart from Wei Xiaobao and the guards, Taomi and Lan Tong were the only ones.

"So according to what this person means, King Pingxi just found someone to fool me, or maybe King Pingxi wanted to give up his car to protect the commander?"

"Princess, our prince has absolutely no intention of doing this." The guard clasped his fists and said. Taomi did not refute, but just admired her beautiful armor.

Wei Xiaobao also felt that this man was the scapegoat for Wu Sangui's old turtle to withdraw, but he was also very confused as to who let in the snake in this courtyard?

The place where the princess lives is naturally guarded by many guards. It seems that it is not that easy for a small vendor who does not know any martial arts to let in a snake.

After much deliberation, Wei Xiaobao still felt that it was more likely that Wu Sangui had someone release the snake. Otherwise, his son would have been bitten and he still couldn't get out of bed. Yet he actually delivered the 'culprit' to Taomi unscathed. What can I say?

You should give him a good beating first to vent your hatred.

He never dreamed that the person who released the snake was Tao Mi, and she was still here making a big show of shouting "Catch the thief."

The guard on the side gradually broke out in cold sweat. Of course he knew that this person was just a scapegoat, but he didn't know the real situation. What if it was really the prince or the prince...

"Master Wei, take this person out. No matter what method you use, I want to know the truth." Taomi looked at Wei Xiaobao and said, "Lantong will go with you. Come over as soon as you know what is going on.

Tell me, I want to see how valuable my life is, everyone wants it."

The guard was still standing there after Wei Xiaobao and Lan Tong went out. The princess didn't let him go, so he couldn't leave either. But when he thought that Wei Xiaobao might ask the truth, he still couldn't let go. He thought about it and looked at the people drinking tea leisurely.

Taomi said, "If the princess has no other instructions, I will resign."

"Don't worry, I still have something I want you to bring to King Pingxi." Taomi put the tea cup on the table. The sound made by the lid and body of the cup was not loud at first, but in this room where there was no sound, she was stunned.

It made a grown man's heart skip a beat.

"I wonder what the princess wants the slave to bring to the prince?"

Taomi sighed, walked aside and picked up a letter, "Tell King Pingxi, be careful and sail the ten-thousand-year ship. You are already old and you don't know how long you will live. Why are you so ambitious?"

The guard was slightly startled and stared at Taomi with his frightened eyes. Taomi smiled and handed over the envelope. The guard took it and bowed and left. Taomi sat back at the table and looked at the man who had just been moved because of her actions.

Tea spilled.

About two-quarters of an hour later, Lan Tong came back with an angry look on his face. It was obvious that Wei Xiaobao had told the truth, "Isn't the princess angry?"

"Why are you still angry when you already know the answer?" Lan Tong said nothing, but she knew that Taomi knew everything. Looking at her calm and composed look at this time, she suddenly felt that she was not so angry anymore.

.

Compared with such a quiet and indifferent princess, none of Wu Sangui's schemes could escape her eyes, and she looked even more like a clown.

Since the princess has a plan for everything, she just needs to listen to the princess's instructions carefully, and Wu Sangui will naturally get the retribution he deserves.

Since King Pingxi was able to accuse a random vendor on the street of wanting to harm the princess, would he do the same thing next time? The princess was lucky enough to escape the disaster, but what about next time?

Wu Sangui knew that Taomi would not believe the scapegoat he found. Since the emperor granted the marriage, he would marry into their family. As long as he had a little bit of brains, he would not make the relationship too tense, but he

Unexpectedly, Taomi was so 'brainless'.

Wei Xiaobao couldn't help but ask Wei Xiaobao to take the man down to ask him the truth, and even gave him this thing.

He had already heard about Hong Antong's death. After Hong Antong's death, everyone from the Shenlong Sect who had been around him rushed back to the Shenlong Sect without stopping, in order of course to grab the antidote to Baotai Yijin Pills.

When the tree fell and the hozens dispersed, he knew that everything he had done with Hong Antong was over.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Originally, he and Hong Antong had a relationship of mutual use. He used Hong Antong's people, and Hong Antong used his methods to share information. One day, when they together pull down the little emperor, they will definitely do the same.

To meet each other in battle.

In fact, this is quite good. After Hong Antong is dead and has achieved great success in the future, he will no longer be able to compete with him for that position, and there will be a lot less trouble.

But now the problem is that the letters exchanged between him and Hong Antong are in the hands of Taomi. A princess who stays in the palace all year round probably doesn't even know who Hong Antong is, so how can she give these to him?

The person behind that must be the little emperor Kangxi.

This caught Hong Antong off guard. The communication between them had always been very secretive. There was also a special messenger for communicating with Hong Antong. The messenger was different every time, and each messenger was a one-way trip.

There is no possibility of coming back.

This is the only way to ensure that no one knows about it, but now Hong Antong's letter has reached the little emperor. Could it be that the emperor was responsible for Hong Antong's death?

Hong Antong's own martial arts was very good, and there were countless capable people on Shenlong Island. How could the little emperor kill Hong Antong without leaving any traces?

Maybe they stayed, but those people were desperately trying to get the antidote to Baotai Yijin Pills for their own survival, and they didn't even think about going to avenge Hong Antong.

This is what happens when you use medicine to control people. If you use power to control people, it should be another scene.

"Father, what's going on, does the princess believe it?"

"How can you believe such nonsense?" Wu Sangui clenched the letter into a ball of paper and looked at Wu Yingxiong who was walking over. He was now weak and his face was completely pale. What's more important was that he had nightmares every night. It was not medicine at all.

Can be adjusted well.

"Don't worry, Ying Xiong. Dad will definitely find out who released the snake. He knows so much."

Wu Yingxiong nodded. He also wanted to know that the snake in the other courtyard gave him a terrible headache and made him want to vomit whenever he thought about it. More importantly, his body felt cold every night and he felt like there was a snake crawling along his body.

The pillars of his bed were crawling, and he seemed to be able to see poisonous snakes whenever he opened his eyes.

As a result, he no longer dared to close his eyes. He kept his eyes open until dawn every day and had to be protected by his servants before he could sleep for a while. However, he was not stable and often broke into cold sweats.

He knew that his father also wanted to find the culprit. Now he was just looking for a scapegoat first to give the princess an explanation, and secondly to find the murderer in the future. The Pingxi Palace had enough rights to deal with it.

He was also wondering if as long as the murderer was executed, he would stop having nightmares. This feeling was really too uncomfortable, and he didn't want to go through this kind of torture again.

Wu Sangui did not tell Wu Yingxiong about Taomi's letter. He had a feeling that the marriage between Prince Pingxi and Princess Jianning might not go ahead so easily.

Within two days, news came that Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi, had forged a memorial from a court official and deceived the king. This was an unforgivable crime. He was removed from the title of vassal king, canceled the engagement between the princess and Wu Yingxiong, and ordered her to return to Beijing on another day.

Of course Xuan Ye's move was a big deal out of a molehill, but who made him the emperor? If you say you are deceiving the emperor, then you are deceiving the emperor and neglecting the emperor.

Everyone was very confused about Xuan Ye's move. When the Jin people entered the customs, it was Wu Sangui who released him. Wu Sangui also made some small moves over the years, but no one pretended to have seen it. This little emperor is a newborn calf and is not afraid of tigers?

?He actually wanted to cut down the vassalage just because of a little 'little thing'.

This is obviously unbelievable. After all, Wu Sangui is the king of Pingxi and has countless elite soldiers. It is very possible that he wants to supply the capital directly.

"His grandfather's little Xuanzi, I'm still here, so you just cut off the vassalage. Do you think your grandfather has a long life, don't you? What will happen if Wu Sangui jumps over the wall and takes me as a hostage?"

When Wei Xiaobao received the news, he was running around in the room anxiously. Now he didn't know what was going on with Wu Sangui, or was it that Wu Sangui didn't care at all and was already preparing to send troops?

No, he got his life back with great difficulty. He can't just leave it here. He still has two children, a wife and a wife that Senior Sister Ake hasn't caught up with. How can he die here like this?

"Come here, come here, where are all the people dead? Come here quickly." Wei Xiaobao shouted anxiously.

Immediately a guard came in, and Wei Xiaobao said quickly, "You guys, get your luggage and carriage ready. Let's return to the capital quickly. I'll inform the princess, and we'll set off as soon as the princess is ready."

Wei Xiaobao came to the other courtyard where Taomi was. Wu Sangui had already sent additional people, but the order those people received was to protect the princess and nothing else. Now that Wei Xiaobao was coming, they had to let him go.

As soon as Wei Xiaobao arrived, he saw Taomi sitting on a stone bench in the yard, playing the flute, and Lan Tong standing beside her, with a nonchalant look, as if she had no idea what was going on outside.

"Princess, princess, let's leave quickly. Your Majesty, he killed Wu Sangui's vassal king. I'm afraid Wu Sangui will threaten the Emperor by taking you as a hostage. You'd better leave with us quickly."

Wei Xiaobao explained the matter in a few words. Even Lan Tong, who was behind Taomi, realized that this matter might not be simple. However, Taomi still did not move and continued to play the tune without even a Douyin sound.

"Princess, this servant is going to pack your things right now. Let's leave quickly."

"Yes, yes, I've been able to get someone to prepare the frame. We can leave right away." Wei Xiaobao was really anxious, but Taomi's unmoving appearance really left him with no choice.
