Concubine Allure: Pick up a prince and grab the country

Chapter 328 Chapter 366
"The mermaids only appear in the East China Sea, and they are scarce in number. They don't understand human language and are born with supernatural powers. This mermaid is one of the mermaids that my grandson intercepted in the lower reaches of the Tongyun River."

"One of them..." Chu Xun stared at Chu Yuanheng, his eyes were slightly darkened, with a cold light inside.

"There are eleven mermen in total. The boy Qi Guo who turned into a dragon boat race followed the boat and waited for an opportunity to go into the water. After pushing the chariot and strange rocks prepared in advance to the bottom of the boat, he immediately evacuated. It has fins, walking on land will definitely attract attention, so I want to escape from the waterway car. The canal leads directly to Jiuyuan, and Jiuyuan faces the East China Sea in the east. An ambush was set up at the entrance of the lower reaches of Jiuyuan, and the group of merman was intercepted. However, the merman was so powerful that it was difficult to catch them alive. Under their full resistance, the grandson could only bring back the body of the merman. Grandpa Huang looked over."

The witnesses and material evidences are all there, and the fact that someone deliberately destroyed the ship is certain, but who is this person?What's the purpose of destroying the ship?Chu Xun already had his own thoughts in his heart, and he said in a deep voice:
"The mermaids are only in the East China Sea, how could they appear in the Imperial Capital! Go and investigate! Find out who is behind the scenes manipulating all this!"

Chu Chonglin was the first to salute and petition.

"Father, son, I would like to personally investigate this mermaid tribe—"

Chu Xun suddenly turned around and stared at Concubine Bai coldly, interrupted Chu Chonglin, and said:

"Linglong, if I remember correctly, you were born in a fisherman's family in the East China Sea..."

The blood on Bai Guifei's face faded quickly, she was flustered in her heart, but she pretended to be calm on the face, she quickly glanced at the dead merman, thinking in her heart that the other mermen had escaped anyway, this merman was also dead, There is no proof of death, she made up her mind to stick to it to the end.

So he knelt on the ground and wept like rain, crying:

"Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with the concubine. The Crown Prince of Xiliang, the fourth prince, and Heng'er are all on board. Even if the concubine is very courageous, she would not dare to murder the prince and prince of Xiliang."

Chu Xun watched silently as Concubine Bai did not speak. Concubine Bai was kneeling on the ground and broke out in a cold sweat. Chu Chonglin frightenedly looked between Chu Xun and Concubine Bai, and was so anxious that he didn't know what to do.

Just when Concubine Bai was about to lose it, Chu Xun turned his eyes, looked at Chu Yuanheng again, and asked:
"Even if someone intentionally uses the strange rock to crash the ship, the strange rock may not be fake. What do you think of the prophecy on the strange rock?"

Chu Yuanheng said:

"Grandson heard that there is a thing called Tu Dan in the world. When you write with Tu Dan, you can see if the water disappears and the characters appear when you see the light. Grandpa Tu Dan will know if it is true or not."

If it's Tu Dan, then it's definitely man-made. Someone deliberately used the strange stone to get rid of Yan Qingcheng.

Chu Xun was very satisfied with Chu Yuanheng's calm attitude, clear thinking, and ability to respond freely, but he had some doubts about his motivation behind doing these things.

Yan Qingcheng—he thought of the scene when he saw her again in Fengyang Palace a few months ago, and he couldn't help but feel a little jealous. He had already lost his most beloved eldest son, Chu Jing, and he didn't want to lose his eldest grandson again. .

Chu Chonglin caught the taboo in Chu Xun's eyes, and immediately emphasized loudly:

"Heng'er has spared no effort to save the Qing Dynasty. Now rumors are spreading in the imperial capital, all accusing the Qingcheng of harming the country and the people. If you leave a message, you will threaten my royal family. Heng'er, do you want to talk to your father—"

Chu Yuanheng suddenly raised his head and laughed loudly, interrupting Chu Chonglin's provocation. When he lowered his head again, his eyes were as dark as lacquer, staring at Chu Chonglin as coldly as a hunter staring at a dying prey. Chu Chonglin subconsciously hit him. A thrill.
