Chapter 117: Catching the Turtle in the Urn

The next day, the white marble steps shine brightly in the sunshine. Hong Yi retreated to the back and climbed down the steps. Behind him, a man hurriedly caught up.81                                                                                                      �

"Your Highness, King Qin!"

Hongyi turned around and saw that the person coming was the staff member of the Eastern Palace. He paused and frowned and said, "Does Xuancheng have something important to find in this king?"

Xuan Cheng raised his eyes, looked straight at Hongyi, shook his head and sighed frequently.

"Xuancheng, why do you mean by making mysterious? Don't forget your identity."

"Your Highness, do you want to talk about the etiquette of the king and the minister?" Xuan Chengxu bowed and said lightly: "The emperor is here to meet His Highness the King of Qin!"

Hongyi frowned and was quite displeased with Xuancheng's contempt.

"Your Highness is dissatisfied with the attitude of the subordinate. Don't forget that you will win the hearts of the people first. In addition to force and coercion, how many people will be convinced by the throne that kills your brother."

"Xuancheng, what do you mean? This time I led my troops back to the court to share the worries of my father and brother. How could I say that I kill my brother and plot against you? I respect your talent, but I don't want to attract people!" Hongyi rebuked coldly.

"Why would you like to ask your highness, what is the intention of sending an assassin to sneak into the room last night and poisoning the prince?"

"I have never done this, Xuancheng, don't be sarcastic!"

"The white jade cup has been sent to the palace city now, and the imperial doctor has detected that it has poison on it."

"But so what? Why do you accuse this matter is my order!" Hongyi tightened his palms. Although he planned to return to Beijing to decide the outcome with the prince, he never thought of poisoning and scheming.

His brotherly friendship with his brother for more than 20 years has fought side by side on the battlefield, leaving his back to the person he trusts the most, so how could he really kill him?

If the prince ascended the throne, he might be in prison and his life would be worrying, and he would be a mermaid meat for others.

If he ascended the throne himself, he would demote the prince to a commoner and be entrusted to the frontier, and his descendants would not be allowed to return to the capital.

Therefore, instead of being passively deprived of military power, it is better to go against the current and take advantage of the situation to compete for the world.

The prince is just a few years older than him. In terms of strength and merit, he is never inferior to the prince. In terms of character and character, he is unwilling to be inferior to others, and even dies at the hands of his brothers. Only by ascending the throne himself can he avoid bloody killings and peace in the world.

If he had been to win by poisoning and scheming, he would have taken action long ago. Why wait until now that the army returned to the court? If the father was furious, he would definitely take advantage of this to regain his military power.

Thinking of the half of the military talisman he held in his hand, it was very strange to disappear, could it be?

Hongyi turned to Xuancheng. Could it be that this was their plan and deliberately slandered himself for poisoning the prince?

Now the majority of ministers who support the prince in the court are, and Hongyi also sends people to win over the officials in private. If the prince claims to the public that he assassinate and kill his parents, he will undoubtedly be in a state of unkindness, unfaithfulness and unfilial piety.

No, he has to sneak into the East Palace tonight to find out.

"Yeah, why haven't the second brother returned to the mansion? You have been in Beijing for almost a month and haven't even been to Haoxuan's mansion to sit down." King Haoxuan of Qi suddenly walked up to break Hongyi's contemplation.

"The emperor is paying homage to His Highness the King of Qi!" Xuan Cheng bowed and bowed.

"Xuancheng, please get up quickly, and you don't have to kneel down when you see me in the future."

"So it's my third brother." Hongyi looked at the man behind him and smiled gently, "I heard that you want to be a concubine again recently. Which girl do you like this time?"

"Just the one from the East Palace." Haoxuan hinted tacitly.

"Your temperament is known that your father has been in a bad state recently, and she is a singer from Qinhuaihe. It is difficult to be included in the mansion now!"

"The second brother wants to posthumously sign the third lady of Changsun Mansion as the Princess of Qin. My father agreed to such a ridiculous thing, and it is impossible to disturb my desire to establish a concubine."

"The third brother should know that the concubine in your mansion is the daughter of the General of the Cavalry. This concubine has only been around for half a year. How could she allow you to marry a new lover now? Don't forget that it is crucial for the general to guard the border. Don't make trouble for a woman."

"Where is the second brother, she insists on making a dead woman the concubine, and Haoxuan is beyond the reach of her. If the second brother really wants to get the support of the Changsun Mansion, why not marry Changsun Huairou directly into the mansion? Haoxuan heard that the girl Huairou is very beautiful and is the number one beauty in Luoyang. Unfortunately, in the eyes of the second brother, she is not as good as a dead person!"

"Haoxuan, you've said it!" Hong Yi's cold eyes slammed his right fist hard on the bridge railing, blood burst out, and blood was dots on the white marble.

"You have changed..." Haoxuan looked at him in disbelief. Hongyi was like a god of war in his mind, holding a long spear, majestic, leading thousands of troops to pacify the troubled times, killing Kokang, but for the sake of a woman with poor appearance, he was so gentle.

He always calmly resolves the crisis, lives in the harshest environment, has been through the battlefield for a long time, and is used to licking blood on the blade. When facing others, he always unconsciously shows a sense of defense.

However, it was such a man who took off his guard and lost his mind for the sake of the woman.

As long as he has hurt that woman, he will give it back twice as much!

"I've changed?" Hongyi murmured to himself. The short time he had been with Yinyin was the happiest time in his life.

At that time, he longed to be just a young man from ordinary families, who could grow old together with his beloved and live a peaceful life. Until Yinyin's death brought him back to the nightmare reality.

Why did the battle for the throne involve her?

He was wrong. He was wrong from the beginning. He shouldn't have proposed marriage to Changsun's mansion at this time and pushed Yinyin to the storm of killing.

I didn't expect that the prince would deal with himself with such despicable means. It's great. Now you are poisoning to deceive the world. I want to see what tricks you are playing!

"Three brother, I have some important matters to discuss in my mansion. Let's take one step ahead and say goodbye!" Hongyi said and left hurriedly.

"Hey, why did you leave..."

"Your Highness, the prince is welcome. I want your highness to gather in the East Palace tonight, and a good show will be performed." Xuan Cheng lowered his eyes and said with a smile.

"It's interesting, so mysterious, my brother is also interested."

Xuan Cheng looked at Hongyi's back as he left, smiling without saying a word.

At night, Tanluo, Nanfeng, and the three children in the abyss sat under the trees to cool off. The moon was hanging high in the sky, and the beautiful scenery was now.

Since leaving the world of immortal cultivation, Tanluo gradually adapted to life in the East Palace. Compared with his previous career in art, he is now so leisurely that he is degenerate.

In order to become an introductory disciple of the Shengtian Sect, she worked hard every day. Now, as a porter for the masters taking bath water, she was frightened and had fat growing on her waist.

Perhaps it was because of the labor intensity and pressure in the past. Now after reducing the burden, Xiao Rou will start to rebound. If not, she will have to start dieting!

After swallowing the tenth piece of pastry, a woman thought hatefully.

As the saying goes, after eating and thinking about lust, Tanluo keeps exterminated the plate of osmanthus cake, he suddenly feels itchy and is about to jump around.

She patted her hands, stood up and said cautiously, "Everyone, I still have fun tonight, so I will no longer be with you."

"Slow down!" Nan Feng grabbed her clothes, raised his eyes and sneered, "I, Su Wen, the cat in the palace, sneaks out to ask for fun every night. Could Brother Tan be a cat?"

Lin Yuan lowered his eyebrows seriously and thought: "Nan Feng said this, it is indeed so similar."

"Go, don't use me to swipe it. I just need to go out for a walk tonight. You two are more nervous, especially you, Lin Yuan!"

Tanluo rolled up his sleeves, and Shi Zuo Shi Zuo was about to turn over. At this moment, a Taoist figure flashed away in the dark night, so fast that it was difficult for the naked eye to capture.

Is there an assassin? She frowned. Could it be that the poisoned assassin sneaked into the East Palace again last night?

"Brother Tan, why are you so serious?" Nan Feng then stood up and looked at the dark night sky.

"Nan Nan, do you want to be rewarded with real money and silver by the prince?" Tan Luo suddenly asked back.

Seeing that the two people next to her were obviously not in a state, she hooked her fingers and whispered: "I just saw an assassin breaking in. Let's go. I will take you to reward merit and capture the assassin alive!"

"It's better to report this kind of thing to the Imperial Guard." Nan Feng retreated. If he could catch the assassin, would he be squatting in the palace and working as a servant?

"I agree, this matter is extraordinary, it is not good to startle the snake." Lin Yuan spoke out seriously.

"You are stupid!" Tanluo looked so angry that he was unable to make a strong man. "This is the beauty of money falling from the sky. Don't worry, follow me, you two can only have a few dollars. Then you can stand by and watch."

Nan Feng and Lin Yuan looked at each other. Although they had seen Brother Tan's natural divine power, they did not know his skills.

Under the darkness, Tanluo grabbed Nanfeng with one hand and held Linyuan with the other, and then acted as if he was about to jump onto the red wall.

"Brother Tan let me go, I'm not a problem with light skills!" Lin Yuan felt awkward and felt very strange about his posture at this time.

"It's in the way!" Tan Luo grabbed the two of them and rushed to the sky immediately, flying in the wind, floating towards Jingren Palace where the prince lived under the night.

At the same time, King Haoxuan of Qi, King An Yan of Teng and Princess Yiyao were introduced to Jingren Palace by Eunuch Liu to "watch the show".

"I said to Eunuch Liu, isn't the eldest brother who was poisoned and unconscious? Is it because of the danger? What's the trouble of you?" After Haoxuan came down, he heard that the assassin sneaked into the East Palace and secretly poisoned the prince.

"I want me to see, the emperor's move is called pulling a snake out of the hole. First, they will talk to confuse the other party. In the past few nights, they will definitely send someone to investigate the truth and reality, and then catch the turtle in a jar." Yiyao's face was full of confidence.

"Brother, that fox is always cunning, but I want to see who can't help but attack him." The fifth prince An Yan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile.

In the woods, Tanluo pulled Linyuan and Nanfeng and waited quietly near Jingren Palace. From here, you can see the movements below.

"You are here for a long time. If the assassin appears, I will rush down to capture it first. Linyuan will follow Nanfeng immediately. When he sees the prince appear, he will remember to seek credit!"

"Good brother, it depends on you." Nan Feng looked moved.

Tanluo made a gesture of silence, turned on his resurrection pupil and checked around him.

Just at this moment, a black shadow swept forward and gently landed on the opposite roof tiles.

Tanluo jumped over and grabbed the other party's right shoulder while he was unprepared, holding his palm tightly. The man felt his arms were sore and had no power to fight back!
