Chapter 52 The Imperial Family
In the early morning of the second day, Concubine Kang put on the filial piety dress, but she did not choose to enter the palace first, but sent out invitations and invited the most famous ancestors of the clan to come.

"Concubine Kang, why did you invite all of us here?" King Wu was the oldest and spoke first, pointing to the corpse covered in white cloth in the hall, "If you don't move King Kang's body into the coffin, What are you doing in the front hall?"

Concubine Kang was dressed in filial piety, and she nodded slightly, "I don't have a shape. I didn't intend to disturb the uncles and uncles of the family. It's just that the concubine knew that the prince died yesterday. It's not clear. The prince just left, and the concubine and children are still young. There is no one to rely on, so I invited the uncles and uncles, hoping that the uncles can make decisions for the concubine and King Kang."

After she finished speaking, she glanced at the county magistrate of Huaining and Prince Kang's son beside her. The magistrate of Huaining county understood, and knelt down to the king of Wu with his younger brother, and said while crying, "I also ask Grandpa King Wu to be able to make the decision for Aye."

"Good boy, get up quickly." King Wu was shocked, and hurriedly helped the two children up, but because men and women were not seated at the age of seven, the head of Huaining County was a woman, and Prince Kang's son was detained by the head of Huaining County. He couldn't help him at all, so he could only look at County Master Huaining earnestly, "My good boy, take your younger brother back to the room first, if there is really a grievance, I am the oldest in the clan, and I am also the minister of Zongzheng Temple, how can I sit idly by?" reason."

Zhao Wang on the side also said: "Princess, don't worry, we are all one family, if there is something hidden, we will accompany you to Taiji Palace and Xingqing Palace."

Zhao Wang was a military general when he was young, and he had the most straightforward temperament. He patted his chest and blurted out a promise, causing Wu Wang to even look at him.

Concubine Kang also wiped away her tears, and said with some difficulty: "Thank you uncles for your kindness. These two children, my concubine never asked them to come out, but they are stubborn and insist on this."

She squatted down slowly again, and embraced the two children with both hands, "Huai Ning, Da Lang, you heard me, you grandpas and uncles will definitely help us, and you will make decisions for us, Aye, you, give it to them quickly!" Kowtow, hurry up..."

After Concubine Kang finished speaking, the county magistrate of Huaining brought Kang Wang's son to kowtow.

"Eh———" Wu Wang was concerned about the women in front of him, and he had no choice but to accept the three kowtows from them.

After kowtowing, King Wu said to the two children: "Good boy, good boy, everyone knows your filial piety, Wangfei, take the children down first."

The crowd also quickly persuaded, "Yes, Concubine Kang's body is cold, and if there are secrets in the death of King Kang, how can we let the child be involved in it?"

Concubine Kang nodded with tears in her eyes, and said to County Lord Huaining, "Huai Ning, take Da Lang down first."

Unlike Concubine Kang, Princess Huaining cried with sincerity. Hearing Concubine Kang's words, she still couldn't help herself. Went to the side room.

King Wu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, he looked at Concubine Kang, "Princess, you said just now that there was something hidden about King Kang's death, could it be that the bandits killed him?"

Concubine Kang covered her face and nodded, "What King Wu said is true."

"Who is so bold? He dared to murder the prince." King Wu asked quickly.

Zhao Wang nodded, "No matter who it is, as long as you tell us, Wangfei, I will be the first to kill him."

King Wu glanced at King Zhao, if it was a simple little person, why would Concubine Kang act like this, she would just sue Dali Temple directly, wouldn't Dali Temple dare not give King Kang justice.

But then again, if it's a small person, I'm afraid it's not so bold.

There are many dignitaries in Wangjing, but there are indeed only a few who dare to touch King Kang. Thinking of this, King Wu's eyes darkened slightly, but he soon became firm.No matter who it is, it is too presumptuous. If he just sits idly by and ignores it, what will the clan face be?
Concubine Kang was moved, and she said eloquently: "I am ignorant. Originally, Dali Temple said that it was caused by robbers, and I believed it. After all, Dali Temple would still deceive a concubine, a little woman? But yesterday Xiangcheng Hou came to the door suddenly, saying that he wanted to see the remains of the prince, the concubine was angry, but Xiang Chenghou said that the wounds on the prince's body did not seem to be caused by robbers, so the concubine let him see the remains of the prince..."

Concubine Kang paused, then turned her back, she couldn't help covering her face and weeping, after a while, she said sadly: "Who knows... Who knows that Xiang Chenghou said that the sword wound on the prince's body was caused by Xirong weapons. The scribes of Dali Temple still couldn’t tell the difference between the knife wound and the concubine was only a boudoir woman, how could they tell the difference? In addition, the concubine knew that the Marquis of Xiangcheng had a long-standing feud with the Xirong people, so she specially ordered people to invite several warriors who knew Xirong’s weapons Come with the old soldiers... I don’t want to be a concubine, no matter whether it’s a martial artist or a veteran, they all agree that it’s the work of Xirong weapons. Those people are the old servants of the prince, and they will never lie to my concubine!”

Concubine Kang cried so hard that she couldn't help herself. She looked at King Zhao, "King Zhao, you also shed blood in the southwest and dealt with Xirong people. Come and see, is this what Xirong people did?"

After finishing speaking, Concubine Kang lifted the white cloth, revealing Kang Wang's body covered with stab wounds.Concubine Kang covered her face and wept, while Zhao Wang approached Kang Wang's body and carefully looked at the scars on Kang Wang's body.

Kang Wang's death was extremely tragic, if he opened his eyelids and looked closely at his pupils, he would know that he died violently.

King Zhao closed his eyes and covered him with a white cloth.

King Wu looked at King Zhao, and before he could speak, King Zhao beat the pillar angrily, and scolded: "Di Yi is so domineering, he dared to kill the prince of the country at the foot of the emperor, it is extremely presumptuous! Extremely rude! But Fanbang Di Yi, who came to surrender after the defeat of the Southern Jin Dynasty, did not know how to be a man with his tail between his legs, but he dared to be so domineering and bold. Wangfei, wait, I will go and behead the Xirong envoy to sacrifice to Brother Kang."

After speaking, she stepped forward to leave, Princess Kang got up in panic, and King Wu hurried to stop her.

"King Zhao, calm down." King Wu persuaded.

Concubine Kang also cried and said: "I know that Zhao Wang is brave, but I invite all relatives to come here to complain for my dead husband. It is already a nuisance. If Zhao Wang is involved again, it is not the concubine's fault. This is not my original intention. .”

King Wu also said: "Yes, King Zhao, don't make things difficult for the princess. The world is bright and clear, and there is justice, so why bother with King Zhao. If you really want to, you can explain this matter with me in the Taiji Hall tomorrow." , Meng Taifu is old enough to seek the country, and Zhou Shizhong is also a veteran of the three dynasties, how can the Holy One not be holy?"

After finishing speaking, King Wu looked at Concubine Kang again, "Concubine Wang, you will enter the palace with us tomorrow, and I will make a statement about this matter, and I will definitely give you justice."
