Emperor Phoenix Policy: Feng Qingtian

Chapter 101 Assassin Organization
Several pairs of eyes looked at him in unison, and asked in unison, "Who?"

"Jiangdong King!"

One word stirred up thousands of feet of waves, and everyone's faces were not very good-looking.

Zhong Mo continued, "Your Majesty has no heirs. King Jiangdong is the younger brother of the late emperor. If something happens to His Majesty, King Jiangdong is the most qualified person to be enthroned as emperor. Therefore, his motive for doing something against His Majesty is indeed great!"

Feng Jin's eyes darkened, and he exchanged a glance with Wuming, who then backed away without a sound.

They really didn't check on Jiangdong Wang. After all, Jiangdong Wang was far away in Jiangdong, and had been silent all the time, just nesting in his Jiangdong to be happy and happy.

Thinking about it now, it was neglected.

Pei Xiu's complexion is also very ugly. If the person who assassinated the Queen again and again is really Jiangdong King, then there must be another wave. Even if his relationship with the Queen has been very tense recently, it is better than Jiangdong King being the emperor. After winning the throne, due to the conflicts and open and secret struggles between the two sides over the years, the first thing Jiangdong King did when he ascended the throne was to seize his power, and the second thing was to kill him.

Before he finds a new chess piece, nothing will happen to the Queen!

The people present had their own thoughts, discussed in a hurry about investigating Jiangdong King, and then went back to their homes.

Old fox Qi left at the end. Seeing everyone leaving, he lowered his voice and asked, "Your Majesty really thinks this matter has nothing to do with Pei Xiang?"

"I've checked him, and it really has nothing to do with him. Besides, something happened to me now, and it's not good for him."

Old fox Qi's expression kept changing. Seeing his expression changed, Feng Jin felt moved, and said, "Speak directly! There is no need to hide between you and me!"

"The old minister received a message that Prime Minister Pei has been in contact with several princes recently, and seems to want to support a prince as a pawn to replace His Majesty."

Feng Jin's eyes turned cold, "Who?"

"First, King Zhongshan, King Zhongshan perfunctory, then King Qing'an, King Xicheng, have received the people sent by Prime Minister Pei, but they have not agreed."

"These princes are not stupid. Before they are sure, they will not involve their wealth and life in such a big conspiracy!"

The old fox Qi said worriedly, "Your Majesty, Xiangye is very ambitious and has always wanted to find someone to replace His Majesty. Does Your Majesty think that the assassination really has nothing to do with him?"

Feng Jin shook her head lightly, "If there is any prince who agrees to him, the assassination may be related to him, but no one has agreed to him yet, he won't do anything to me rashly!"

Old Fox Qi thought about it, and he thought it was true. He hadn't written his horoscope yet, and Prime Minister Pei wouldn't act so hastily.

"You said just now that Pei Xiu was looking for King Zhongshan first?"

"Yes."

"Why do you consider the eldest son of his mansion first, instead of the eldest sons of other princes' mansions?"

Old fox Qi smiled, "Because the princess of King Zhongshan is sister to the general's wife, with this relationship, Xiangye probably thinks that he can get the support of the general."

"Princess Zhongshan and the general's wife are sisters, why didn't I know?"

Feng Jin asked with a look of astonishment on his face, and the old fox Qi smiled, "This is an old thing. The general's wife's mother was the daughter of a certain marquis from the previous dynasty. She was already married and gave birth to the general's wife. Later, Taizu led troops to rebel. During the war, the princess and her husband's daughter were separated. She thought that both her daughter and her husband died in the war. After leaving Princess Zhongshan, the pair of sisters only got to know each other in the last few years, and for some unknown reason, the General didn’t announce it to the public, so few people know about it.”

"Also, the concubine of King Zhongshan is the stepmother. After the death of the former concubine, the king of Zhongshan married this concubine. The eldest son and second son of King Zhongshan were both born to the former concubine, and the third son is the concubine. out."

Old fox Qi paused, and continued, "The pawn that Xiang Pei chose is the son born to the wife of the third son of the palace, that is, the grandson of the concubine, and the youngest boy in the Zhongshan palace. age."

"Four years old? So young?"

Old fox Qi smiled meaningfully, "Small talents are easy to manage, and what Xiang Pei wants is easy to handle."

Feng Jin feels a little uncomfortable, does such a young child have to be involved in this turmoil of imperial power?

She sighed, put aside those pessimistic and useless emotions for the time being, and asked, "Do you know the biggest reason why King Zhongshan rejected Pei Xiu?"

"It seems that the child's biological mother strongly objected and forced him to die. The king of Zhongshan was very hesitant. In this way, he simply used this matter to perfunctory Prime Minister Pei. In this way, there is room for the matter, and he will not offend Prime Minister Pei. "

Feng Jin was silent, "I have pity on the parents of the world. She probably also knows that the child is being used as a chess piece, and the end will not be very good, so she is so desperate to protect her."

"Your Majesty asked so carefully, do you have any plans for Zhongshan Palace?"

"I have some plans, but I can't tell you yet."

Old Fox Qi said 'Oh' and stopped asking any more questions.

While the monarch and his subjects were talking, Shen Wenqing and Wuming walked in, "Your Majesty, Wenqing has sent a letter to the spies stationed in Jiangdong, asking them to carefully investigate the Jiangdong King to see if the assassination is related to him."

Feng Jin nodded, sent Old Fox Qi out of the door, and then returned to the bedroom.

As soon as he arrived at the door of the bedroom, Lu Yi greeted him, "Your Majesty, that fragrant girl is here again."

As soon as Feng Jin stepped into the door, she saw Fu Yu standing in the yard with her back straight and expressionless.

Seeing Feng Jin, she just turned her face slightly, didn't do anything else, and didn't say hello to Feng Jin.

"Come in, it's very windy outside."

Fu Yu followed behind Feng Jin without saying a word, and as soon as he entered the house, before Feng Jin could ask any questions, he said, "Today, there are people in the city tower who assassinated His Majesty, the sect master already knows, this group of assassins is the same as last time. The owner of the same batch also knows about it.”

The news of the gate of death is really well-informed!
Feng Jin smiled slightly, "What did your sect master ask you to do?"

"A few days ago, the Gate of Death found a few things, not much. I thought I would tell His Majesty when I found more things, but today there was another assassination, so the owner of the door asked me to tell His Majesty."

"Speak!"

"The marks on those assassins all come from an organization. Since the establishment of the Death Gate for hundreds of years, I have never seen this organization. The owner of the door has read a lot of information. Judging from the information recorded by the Death Gate over the years, it is the first time I have seen it. It was more than [-] years ago that someone had this logo on their body, the year when the previous dynasty perished."

Feng Jin sat up straight suddenly, looking at Fu Yu with burning eyes, "Where is that man now?"

"died!"

"died?"

"Yes! In the information on the gate of death, the first time I saw this mark was on a corpse. The body was covered with wounds. It seemed that it had been tortured. The mark was hidden under the wound, but at that time No one noticed. Later, corpses appeared one after another and were thrown on mass graves where no one went. The corpses all had the same traces of torture. At that time, the head of the gate of death thought that there was a cult, so he sacrificed his life to the evil god. , and sent someone to investigate, but when the matter was about to progress, the other party seemed to sense it, and disappeared without a trace, and since then, there has been no such sign."

Feng Jin was quite surprised that Fu Yu said so many words in one breath, she never thought that Fu Yu could be so eloquent.

"The head of the gate of death at that time recorded this matter, and it became an unsolved case. The head of the door wanted to continue to investigate further, but the assassins were dispatched again. The head of the door thought it was better to tell His Majesty what he knew so far. wonderful."

Shen Wenqing frowned, "It hasn't appeared for more than [-] years, and once it appears, it will assassinate His Majesty? Could it be that this organization is just to assassinate His Majesty? But when the organization first appeared, His Majesty was not born yet! Also, more than [-] years ago There are no corpses, so they haven't killed anyone in the past thirty years?"

"I think it's not that they haven't killed people, but that they have become more skilled in handling corpses, and they haven't been discovered. It may be the first time they handled corpses more than [-] years ago, so they have little experience and thought they were thrown on mass graves. , Just wait for it to be eaten by wild dogs, but I didn’t expect to be discovered by the dead gate, and when the dead gate checked, they realized something was wrong and immediately hid.”

Nameless then said, "There are still traces of torture, just to train the dead, just like the secret guards in the secret guard organization! Beating them is to make them numb to the pain, so that even if they are tortured by someone If you are caught, you will not be forced to ask for a confession and expose the secrets of the organization. Those who died probably did not survive, or spoke during the torture, so they did not meet the requirements of the organization and were dealt with!"
