Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 300 Killing three birds with one stone

After hearing this, the prince immediately stopped talking because he felt that Ling Buhuo was right.

"Well, not bad, what you said makes sense, okay, then let's do as you say. But Zichen, you must be careful, after all, this time is not a joke." The prince said
"Yes, please rest assured, Your Highness, I will be more careful." Ling Buhuo
"Okay, if that's the case, then you should go back quickly. After all, my father will always send people to keep an eye on you. If you stay here in this palace for a long time, it will easily cause trouble." The prince said solemnly.
After hearing this, Ling Buhuo naturally did not object, but bowed directly, then slowly pushed out of the study, and quickly left the East Palace.

In fact, Emperor Wen at this time really didn't have much time to deal with Ling Buhuo. At this time, he had just finished giving instructions to Jiang Chong about Ouyang Lun and the Imperial Manor.

Jiang Chong naturally did not dare to neglect what his Majesty had told him, so without Ouyang Lun's knowledge, he was targeted by the Xiuyi Guards.

Of course, when Ouyang Lun set out the next day, he was naturally followed. Ouyang Lun didn't know anything about it. He was thinking about what to do for a while.

As he got closer and closer to the Imperial Mansion, the expression on Ouyang Lun's face became more and more serious. When he finally arrived at the Imperial Mansion, he returned to normal.

After a few exchanges with the manager, he soon discovered something unusual. Several people in the manor had disappeared a few days ago and never appeared again.
So he started to search around with people, and finally found traces of the two young masters of the Lou family in an inconspicuous wooden house.

Ouyang Lun was in the wooden house, looking at the two unconscious young masters of the Lou family in front of him, his face became very ugly, because he had a vague premonition that everything was going too smoothly.

It was so smooth that it was incredible. He actually found it as soon as he looked for it. It was as if someone had deliberately placed the person here for fear of not being able to find him.

After coming to this conclusion, he felt very angry, because no matter what, he was the tutor he chose for the prince. He had other thoughts, which was to slap himself in the face.

The consequences that will arise will definitely shake the foundation of the imperial court, but how to stop it? There was only one way, so he gave Jiang Chong a few direct instructions.

So at this time, he frowned. Although he believed Ling Buhuo's words, he didn't know why, but he felt vaguely uneasy and suspicious.

If something went wrong with these two people, it would be impossible to tell at that time, so he decided to take the people back. He had already thought about it, and when he reached the city gate, he would publicize the matter.

Everything that needs to be done has been done, and now it depends on whether His Majesty will take action. He has spent a lot of thought on this game, and now he is just short of this final step.

After Jiang Chong heard the news, he didn't dare to neglect, so he quickly got up and walked to the palace. He walked very quickly and entered the palace soon, and then went straight to the imperial study.

Because now it is obvious that the third prince has found the two young masters of the Lou family. Lou Jing has to be grateful for both affection and reason. It is natural that there will be some changes by then.

At this time, Emperor Wen had thought everything through in his mind. Combined with Ling Buhuo's words before, he was now extremely sure that Lou Jing, the old immortal, had other thoughts.

The people who were following him at this time naturally saw everything, so soon the news was spread back to the city and reached Jiang Chong's ears.

Anyone in the world can choose the third child, but Lou Jing cannot, because he is the Grand Master and a role model for all officials. How can he betray his trust?

At this time, on the other side, Ouyang Lun let go of the entanglements in his heart. He decided to go back directly and take people back. Yes, he wanted to take everyone back.

"Your Majesty, there is nothing unusual in the Lou family. Everything is as usual." Jiang Chong bowed.

No movement, no movement, yes, how could there be movement? After all, this is a favor. If there is action, how can you show favor?

At this time, besides Jiang Chong who was very nervous, there was another person who was not at ease either. He was Ling Buhuo. At this time, Ling Buhuo was sitting in the public room of his Tingwei Mansion with his brows furrowed.

At this time, Emperor Wen had only one thought, that is, nothing could be done to make this matter succeed, because it would give those aristocratic families a very bad start.

He really didn't want to complete what His Majesty told him, but he knew he had no choice and he had to do it. Because if he doesn't do it, he won't have the chance to wait until later.

After all, things were a little too easy, as easy as God was helping, so he had to wonder if he had been plotted, but no one could ask and answer for him now.

So Emperor Wen was very angry at this time. He wanted to call Lou Jing over and ask him what he thought, but he knew he couldn't.

Jiang Chong left the imperial study with a calm expression, but judging from his trembling hands, his heart was obviously not that peaceful.

"What did you say? It's actually true, it's actually true? Wait, what about the Lou family? Is there anything unusual about the Lou family?" Emperor Wen asked in surprise.

And the reason why he decided like this was naturally because he was not sure whether this matter had been known to the prince now, and if he really went back by himself.

He knew that time was running out, and he could no longer let His Highness decide. He had to make the decision himself, because once this person entered the capital, he would be very likely to be discovered by someone who wanted to do it.

If I don't publicize it as soon as possible, it will be troublesome if someone else strikes first. I don't know how many people will speak out.

As soon as he set off, it was already destined that he would never return to the city. Because he was taking the official road, Ouyang Lun and his party were not nervous at all.

While passing through a forest, a barrage of arrows were shot out, immediately knocking them off their feet. At this time, Ouyang Lun's face turned pale.

He never imagined that the prince would be so bold and dare to kill people in officialdom in broad daylight.

At this time, he knew that he could not go back, but he could not figure it out until his death. Why did this happen? Did the prince really not fear His Majesty's punishment for doing this?

Is it really worth it for his little adviser? However, no one could answer this question for him, so he could only go to the underworld with this question.

Such a tragedy occurred in the suburbs of the capital, and the two young masters of the Lou family died. This caused an uproar. After learning about the death of his son, Mr. Lou suddenly fainted from the rage.

The third prince was in a similar mood to Taifu Lou. At this time, the third prince was slumped in a chair, his face pale and without a trace of blood.

He never thought that just a trip to the western suburbs would lead to death. He didn't understand who had the courage to do this under the emperor's feet. Because of this, he immediately lost all worries and couldn't care about that much. He stood up and left, and soon left his mansion.

At the same time, Ling Buhuo was meeting someone in his private room in Tingwei Mansion.

"Commander Jiang, you are here probably for the case in the western suburbs, right?" Ling Buhuo said.

"You are right, Mr. Hou. I am indeed here for this case. I want to take over this case. I wonder what Mr. Hou wants?" Jiang Chong said.
"Commander Jiang, I should give you this face, but you also have to understand my difficulty. After all, the person who died this time was Taifu Lou's son, and there was also a retainer of His Highness the Third Highness."

"No matter who these two people are, I can't offend them, so I'm afraid I can't hand this case over to you." Ling Buhuo said

"Huh? Mr. Hou, you should understand how this case came about. I am doing this for your own good, so I ask Mr. Hou not to embarrass me." Jiang Chong said
"Haha, since you have said this, let me be honest. There are many people in the capital who have the ability to kill them, but not many have the courage."

"What's more, it's done in broad daylight, so blatantly. With all these conditions combined, only you embroidery guards can do it."

"I won't ask any more questions. I just want to say that if you take over the case now, it will be confirmed that it was you who did it, so I advise you to go back."

"This case is placed in Tingwei's Mansion, and the pressure is on me, so I can push it out, but if it is placed on you, then you have no place to push it."

"There's nothing in the world that you can't find out. How are you going to explain it to them? I don't think you want to face that kind of situation, right?" Ling Buhuo said.

After hearing this, Jiang Chong didn't speak, but stared at Ling Buhuo, and Ling Buhuo didn't care, and faced Jiang Chong's gaze with a smile.

"Marquis Xiangwu, your guess is absolutely correct, but at the same time, I also have some guesses. If I guess correctly, this trouble should be your fault, right?" Jiang Chong said
"Haha, Commander Jiang, why do you need to ask so clearly? It would be good for you to be a little confused about many things. I know you are a little worried now."

"But I can only tell you that time is still long and everything is still unknown. The helplessness you feel now may turn into luck in the future, so don't be impatient."

"Everything has to be done slowly, there is still a lot of time, why rush in this moment? There are many possibilities in the future, just like this time." Ling Buhuo said with a smile.

"Oh? Marquis Xiangwu, you are very confident. Well, at this point, I have no other choice, but I hope you won't disappoint me."

"Because you definitely don't want to bear the consequences, so leave!" After Jiang Chong finished speaking, he turned and left without stopping at all.

Ling Buhuo looked at Jiang Chong's leaving figure, a smile appeared on his lips, because he encountered an unexpected surprise. It was originally killing two birds with one stone, but now it seems that there is another one.

Jiang Chong, who got on the carriage at this time, didn't know that he had become the third eagle. He was really helpless at this time, because he knew very well in his heart.

After this incident, there was no room for change between him and the third prince. After all, he still knew very well what Ouyang Lun meant to the third prince.

So he actually had no other choice, but he was still a little unwilling. Having been in charge of life and death all year round, he didn't like the way he felt now.

The feeling of being plotted against and unable to do anything about it made him very unhappy, but he also knew that there was nothing he could do.

Because he has now separated himself from the third prince, if he touches Ling Buhuo again, he will have no chance at all, and he may not even survive until the prince ascends the throne.

It was also because of this that he couldn't help but said something that seemed very ridiculous to him. He knew that because of his helplessness, he had lost his temper.

As for Jiang Chong's threat, Ling Buhuo never took it to heart, because to put it bluntly, Jiang Chong himself was a knife, and he couldn't move it until his master did it.

Once he takes action, it means that the knife has its own ideas, and for the owner, there is no need for the knife to exist, so as long as he doesn't want to die, he will not do anything.

What he was really worried about was the Third Prince. He had a hunch that the Third Prince would definitely come to him, and it would be very soon, and it would definitely not take more than three days.

In fact, after seeing Ouyang Lun's body, the third prince had already gone to Tingwei's mansion, so an hour after Jiang Chong left, the third prince appeared in Ling Buhuo's palace.

After Ling Buhuo saw the third prince, he quickly stood up, saluted, and gave up his seat. However, the third prince had no intention of letting him get up, so Ling Buhuo could only continue to bend down.

"Ling Zichen, I have tried my best to overestimate you, but now it seems that I still underestimate you. Your insidiousness and cunning really exceeded my expectations."

"I'm very curious now, what exactly did you say to my father? Why did he let the embroidered guards take action in broad daylight without any care?" the third prince asked.

"Your Highness, I can answer this question, but can you let me sit down first?" Ling Buhuo said.

"Haha, this is your place, of course you can do it. After all, you are also a dignified Ting Weiqing, so there is no need to be too lowly." The third prince said

"Your Highness, you have lost your grace a little, but it doesn't matter. I may have done more than you in changing places. Let me be frank, what happened this time was actually a complete accident."

"I know you don't believe it, Your Highness, but please listen to what I have to say first. The cause of this incident is because Taifu Lou has had some thoughts since the Queen's funeral."

"And he is extremely important to the prince. It can even be said that even if the prince loses everyone's support, he cannot lose him."

"After all, how can a prince who is capable of betraying his master still be qualified to serve? So this kind of thing must never happen."

"Actually, I didn't do anything. I just told His Majesty the news. As for what happened after that, I actually don't have much to do with you. The most I did was add fuel to the flames." Ling Buhuo said.
