Chapter 259 Conspiracy to the end
In the Golden Luan Hall, Emperor Jianning was furious.

"It's really a good skill. My emperor's son was safe on the battlefield, and he was captured by Yanhu and returned safely. Now he was assassinated in the territory of Beidi. You are really good!"

While Emperor Jianning shouted angrily, a memorial was thrown at the Seventh Prince's feet.

The Seventh Prince lowered his head, and when he heard the noises around him, his already bad complexion turned stiff again.

At this time, a minister immediately stood up.

"Your Majesty, the assassination of His Royal Highness Jin was not accidental. I believe that King Yu has been in the west for a long time, but he has been procrastinating on rescuing His Royal Highness Jin. If General Xiao Shen hadn't conspired and worked hard with each other, His Royal Highness Jin might still be dead. Being detained by Yanhu, King Yu must be responsible for this matter!"

This person is an old man who has followed King Chen for many years, and even speaking in court has a certain weight.

But at this moment, it is not wise for him to take out King Yu so blatantly to defend the Seventh Prince.

The Seventh Prince and King Yu had each other's secrets, and if they rushed forward like this, if King Yu was pushed into a hurry and did something like burn everything together, that would be bad.

So the Seventh Prince went out immediately.

"The prince has lived in the East Palace for many years, and the people under his command are at least half of the court. King Yu is good at leading the army and also holds the military power, so he can be [-]% sure."

"Father, my son thinks that the matter of the third brother's distress needs to be investigated carefully. It is better to send someone to the army in the western border to investigate. First, he can monitor whether King Yu has any dissenting intentions. Second, it should be more detailed if there is a special person to do the job. .”

But at night, Prince Chen's Mansion secretly sent someone to spread the word.

But King Yu is not a casual minister, and it is absolutely impossible for him to be willing to take the blame.

Prince Chen narrowed his eyes, "If you have one, you will naturally keep it. This is the first child of Lao Qi. King Yu values ​​his only son. Does he really want to end his heir?"

Now that Emperor Jianning wants to get rid of King Yu, and King Jin is no longer a big threat, the Seventh Prince, a pawn, can also retire.

Not long after, a servant girl came to announce the good news, saying that the concubine had just been found out by the government doctor and was two months pregnant.

"Your Highness Seventh, our lord said that King Yu's affairs are not clean this time. His Majesty has already become suspicious of you, Your Highness. If he can't turn the tiger who conspired with him into a scapegoat, it is better to conspire to the end. , now Beidi's troops are all concentrated in the west, and the country is empty."

"My son thinks that if this matter was done by the king of Yu, then there may be sowing dissension, which will cause my son and other brothers to be suspected of fighting against each other." King Chen handed over.

After the man finished speaking, the Seventh Prince suddenly felt his heart beating like a drum in his chest.

"Prince Jin has set off to return to Beijing. Let Lao Qi investigate the assassination. I hope to get the result as soon as possible."

After the people left, the Seventh Prince stared at the tea that was about to cool down in front of him with complicated eyes.

Prince Chen turned his head slightly, looking at the ray of sunlight that came in from the gap in the curtain of the carriage, the grand plans hidden in his heart seemed to be gradually illuminated.

It's hard to make up your mind about such a rebellious thing.

After the dynasty was dispersed, the Seventh Prince originally wanted to go with Prince Chen.

After saying this, seeing that the Seventh Prince's complexion seemed to have softened, he clicked on it.

These words can be regarded as an excuse for the Seventh Prince, but it is not complete, it is more like neutral.

It's just that King Chen learned the contents of the excerpt here first, and he expected that the seventh prince would come to him after the next court, so he made a special arrangement to avoid it.

"Hui'er, I am sorry for you, but I have today, and it is indeed you who reminded me to marry an ordinary family in my next life. Don't worry, I will definitely give us all the best things in the world. son."

Although the Seventh Prince had no relationship with Xu Sini, the Seventh Prince was still happy that Xu Sini was pregnant with his child.

In the final analysis, the subordinates of Prince Chen still obey Prince Chen's orders, and they can serve the Seventh Prince, but they are only ordered by Prince Chen.

My mind was pulled between the annoyance and anxiety just now and the sudden good news, and I ignored it for a while, why the good news came so coincidentally.

But as soon as he left the palace, Prince Chen's personal eunuch hurriedly sent word that the young prince was ill.

On winter nights, the moonlight looks extraordinarily cold.

The Seventh Prince still hesitated, and was about to speak when the man opened his mouth again.

"Your servant understands." The eunuch nodded and remained silent.

"Prince Chen, what do you mean?"

What a coincidence, Xiao Shizi is sick today.

The Seventh Prince looked at the warm yellow lights getting closer and closer in the main courtyard, thinking that he was about to become a father, and he was suddenly poked somewhere in his heart.

"That's all the prince said, whether to do it or not, it's up to His Highness to decide, and this slave will retire."

He could understand what this meant.

As for why the Seventh Prince didn't know the news first, it was because Prince Chen didn't want him to know.

Fifteen days later, just a few days before the Chinese New Year, a secret letter was delivered to King Yu in the military camp in the western region.

The person who sent the message cupped his hands.

"Your Highness should also think about it. Although King Jin did not die, his face was damaged. How can a king have scars on his face? The fourth prince has long been rejected by the emperor, and there is no possibility of succession. In order to protect Bei Di Jiangshan, there are successors. I will definitely keep His Highness, if you don't act now, the emperor is still in his prime, if there is another heir, then you are not the only one, Your Highness."

Above, Emperor Jianning glanced at the Seventh Prince with deep eyes, and after a while, moved his gaze to the side.

Just with the help of Emperor Jianning, he killed two birds with one stone.

"If you want to do things like this, how sure are you? If not, it will be a disaster."

Where and how to investigate this case, I am at a loss.

As a mother, you are strong, and as a father, so is it.

Hearing this, the Seventh Prince didn't want to bother him anymore, so he could only leave after a few words of concern.

But after King Chen hurriedly boarded the carriage back home, the anxious expression on his face immediately disappeared without a trace.

Emperor Jianning asked him to investigate the case, but he couldn't think of any other more suitable method except to push King Yu to take the blame.

But the Seventh Prince, who was abandoned by him at that time, was very upset.

After all, the two were able to cooperate at the beginning because the Seventh Prince had promised to keep King Yu and his heirs safe and prosperous. Now that they broke their promises, it would be easy to turn their backs.

If the Seventh Prince was still shaken just now, he has slowly made up his mind at this time.

The Seventh Prince frowned slightly, but in order to get rid of the suspicion, he had no choice but to accept the task.

Whispering his wife's boudoir name softly, the dark light surged in Chen Wang's eyes.

After hearing this, Emperor Jianning closed his eyes and said in a low voice after a while.

Immediately went to the main courtyard.

"My lord, the seventh concubine seems to be pregnant, look." the eunuch whispered.

At that time, there had already been several heavy snowfalls in the western region.

The weather is cold, and Yanhu's food and grass are not enough. Now it is retreating steadily. It will take a few days, perhaps before the end of the year, to regain Linzhou, which was lost decades ago.

If Yanhu still refuses to seek peace and withdraw his troops by then, Beidi's territory may expand outward.

This matter was exciting, but after King Yu read the secret letter from the seventh prince, the light in his eyes seemed to be brighter.
