Chapter 105

As soon as he arrived in Jiangnan, Zhao Chunmin could smell the smell of gunpowder in the air.

"Your Highness, this subject is Huang Rujing from the Jiangnan Salt Administration. I have been waiting for Your Highness here for a long time. Please also accompany me to the station to have a rest."

Huang Rujing from the Jiangnan Salt Administration seemed respectful, but his eyes were cold.

The thought of wanting to kill Zhao Chunmin was not hidden too deeply.

"Your Majesty Huang is very polite. There are indeed beautiful scenery everywhere in the south of the Yangtze River. Master Huang has worked hard for the country."

Zhao Chunmin came to Jiangnan with other thoughts.

Not only did he want to weaken the power behind the second prince, but he also wanted to take advantage of the chaos to take Jiangnan into his pocket and use it for him.

For three days, the two practiced Tai Chi.

Zhao Chunmin was a little bit overwhelmed by this, and felt that Jiangnan was different from what he thought, like an iron bucket surrounded, so he couldn't find the slightest flaw.

The investigation is deadlocked.

He remembered the three letterheads that Gu Liubai gave him when he left, thought about it, and took one out of them.

Yao Xiaoxian.

There is a name on the letterhead.

Zhao Chunmin thought about Jiangnan's relationship network in his mind, and extracted it from the vast network of contacts.

This son has no direct relationship with the Jiangnan officialdom, but he is the son-in-law of the Jiangnan patrol.

This made him see a glimmer of hope from the smoke.

In the next few days, instead of continuing to deal with Huang Rujing, he "met" Yao Xiaoxian in the casino.

In the casino, Yao Xiaoxian gambled red-eyed, lost all the money he carried, but refused to end, Zhao Chunmin took the opportunity to get involved with the other party.

After coming and going, Zhao Chunmin was regarded as a confidant by the other party.

Through coercion and lure, he obtained evidence of the collusion between the Jiangnan patrol and the Jiangnan Salt Administration.

Just this is not enough for him to overthrow the entire officialdom.

Just when he thought things could go smoothly, he was assassinated during an unannounced visit out of the city.

When he narrowly escaped death, he rolled down the cliff.

This news was quickly placed on Gu Ruchen's desk.

He looked at the news sent by Feige, and tapped his fingertips.

It seems that there is no need for him to do anything.

As far as Zhao Chunmin's style is concerned, I'm afraid Master Huang in Jiangnan will have his heart eaten up by him.

He thought he was doing things secretly, but in fact there were loopholes everywhere. If he hadn't finished it, I'm afraid Zhao Chunmin's body would have already been thrown into the wilderness.

Gu Liubai hoped that he could set up obstacles for the eighth prince and his party, and just save one life.

On the other hand, Zhao Chunmin's life cannot stay in Jiangnan.

……

First day banquet.

Gu Liubai sat at the banquet in palace attire, with Concubine Shu sitting above and Concubine Wan sitting below.

Ever since Zhao Chunmin went to the south of the Yangtze River, the atmosphere in the harem has shifted towards Concubine Shu and Concubine Wan.

So Concubine Xian sat across from them, but there was an empty seat next to them and no one dared to sit.

Gu Liubai looked around, and before the banquet started, he got up and sat beside Concubine Xian.

Sure enough, there were fewer people around, and the surrounding air became much fresher.

Holding a glass of fruit wine, Concubine Xian cast a glance at Concubine Shu's knife-like eyes, and smiled indifferently: "Sister, aren't you afraid of me?"

Gu Liubai also picked up the wine and saluted: "What is my sister talking about? My sister doesn't understand."

do not know?

Concubine Xian looked at the place where the second prince was sitting.

There was already a vacuum around him, which was in great contrast to the surrounding scenes of drinking and drinking.

At this moment, the sixth prince approached the second prince with wine, the two of them were talking about something, the smile on the second prince's face faded away, and he started drinking alone.

Concubine Xian lowered her head slowly, seeing that the skin on her palm was no longer as tender as it was when she was young.

Did she do something wrong?
I want to push my son to sit in that seat.

Was she...wrong?

This sentence should have been kept in the bottom of my heart, but perhaps because I thought too much, I said it quietly.

"Sister, you are right."

Human nature is greedy, especially when the goal is within reach.

Just ask who can resist the temptation.

Concubine Xian was startled, her neck turned around stiffly, her pupils dilated, and she looked at Gu Liubai in shock.

"Sister... Concubine Hui, what are you talking about?" Concubine Xian still wanted to save her.

"Sister, you are right. You are right to want the second prince to ascend to the throne. It's just that your mistake is that you can't recognize your real opponent and... the power of imperial power."

"Therefore, the game is short of a move, so I decided to leave. You and the second prince lost."

Gu Liubai said slowly, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

It took a long time for Concubine Xian to find her voice: "Concubine Hui... What do you mean by saying that?"

"The eighth prince has already entered the palace, Empress Xian, what do you think?" Gu Liubai deliberately paused, then turned to look at where the second prince was sitting.

"When the emperor was angry, there were millions of corpses floating around. Do you think there is still hope for you?"

Concubine Xian forced herself not to look at the second prince, but only stared at Gu Liubai's side face: "Why did you tell me this? Are you not afraid that I will tell the emperor?!"

Gu Liubai turned his head, the smile on his face deepened.

"How can you be afraid. Does my sister know who can keep secrets best in this world? It's the dead! Only the dead can keep secrets."

Concubine Xian's body sitting on the stool suddenly went limp.

She trembled all over, trying to defend herself, but Gu Liubai didn't give her time to speak.

"Sister, it will be the first day soon. The second prince's life and death can be in your mind. Whether he lives or you die with him."

Because of Gu Liubai's words, the dignified appearance of the concubine Xian was cracked.

Squeezing out a smile, she said silently in the direction of the second prince: Take care of yourself.

The second prince only glanced at it, then lowered his head and continued drinking.

Concubine Xian's eyes dimmed instantly, her bitter smile was more uncomfortable than crying.

Concubine Shu looked at everything and felt that Gu Liubai had a good plan.

How long did it take to break Concubine Xian's smirk.

Seeing her getting up staggeringly and leaving the banquet, a trace of suspicion flashed in her heart.

The banquet is about to start, Concubine Xian can't sit still, why run out?
She waited and waited, until the emperor took his seat, standing behind him was the eighth prince whom she despises the most, and she didn't wait until Concubine Xian returned to the banquet.

Just when the banquet was about to start, Wang Dexi whispered in the emperor's ear: "Your Majesty, Concubine Xian is dead."

When the emperor heard the words, he slapped the table and got up, his face was angry and there was a trace of sadness.

Concubine Xian died, how could he not know the meaning of this.

OK, that's great!
If he is dead, dare to put him together!
"Chundi, kneel down for me!"

The second prince was drunk, and after a contemptuous smile, he lifted up his clothes and knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, what is the crime for making me kneel?"

He stared at the eighth prince behind the emperor, his eyes were full of disdain.

The emperor was so angry because of his disobedient attitude, he clutched his violently heaving chest and forced himself to stabilize his mind.

"Come here! The second prince hides traitors inside, ignores Chang Lun, brothers fight against the wall, and imprison him in the clan mansion immediately!"

For three crimes, the second prince was crucified in this imperial city.
