The next princess is too cruel

Chapter 117
After Wu Hongzhi received the tip, he immediately sent someone to create a series of smoke bomb obstacles for Hei Yanyue, trying to draw his attention away.

This time, Hei Yanyue was determined to find out his thousand-year-old fox tail. He secretly sent people to kidnap several court officials, put them in prison, and tortured them to extract confessions.

Yuewang Mansion and Wu Mansion looked happy and joyful on the surface, but in the dark they were actually turbulent and surging, and if one didn't check, it would be an abyss.

As for the affair between Hei Yanyue and Wu Lian, the old concubine had issued a password ban long ago, but it has not been reported, and even Wu Hongzhi didn't know about it.

As a daughter of Wu Lianzhi's family, she would not talk about such embarrassing things.

Five court ministers disappeared within three days in a row in the court. Hundreds of ministers in the court were panic-stricken and fearful, and even went to sleep at night with anxiety.

These officials, especially civil servants, if the country is fine, they just eat, drink, have fun, bully the people, and usually use their mouths in the court.

But once something happens, they all get into their own mouse holes like mice, trembling with fear, not even daring to speak.

There was chaos in the imperial court, and there were many discussions. The people who were assassinated last time were Wu Hongzhi's people, and the people who disappeared this time were all Wu Hongzhi's confidantes.

This incident was too obvious, and everyone was speculating that the royal family's Hei family had already begun to eliminate the power of the Wu family. Those who were originally Wu Hongzhi, seeing this situation, had the idea of ​​abandoning their dark side and turning to the bright side.

Wu Hongzhi, on the other hand, was furious and furious. Those officials disappeared, and he knew with his toes that Hei Yanyue must have been caught secretly.

Although those people were his confidantes, in the face of death and torture, no one could guarantee that they would not betray him.

Wu Hongzhi was worried that someone would betray him, so he quickly sent people to investigate the whereabouts of the five people, intending to kill them to silence them.

For those who would threaten him, Wu Hongzhi, he would rather kill them than leave a single one alive.

How could Hei Yanyue let him kill people to silence him? He sent extra manpower to block the guards on the third and outer third floors of the entire palace, and not even a fly could fly in.

Outsiders thought that there was a wedding in the palace, and Hei Yanyue received too many gifts, he was worried that thieves would come to the palace to steal, and he was guarding against those little thieves.

Therefore, Black Flame Moon's move did not arouse the suspicion of the people, but some clever ministers saw some tricks in it.

Those ministers began to protect themselves wisely, and drew a clear line with Wu Hongzhi one after another. Gifts that were supposed to be sent to Wu's mansion for congratulations were sent to Yuewang's mansion one after another.

In fact, a few years ago, Wu Hongzhi arranged an insider in the palace. However, Hei Yanyue was very cautious in his work, and replaced all the guards of the dungeon with his personal guards.

Therefore, Wu Hongzhi's insiders can't even enter the dungeon, let alone kill people to silence them.

Once, Wu Hongzhi's insider went to the toilet, and overheard someone talking in the toilet.

He held his breath, approached and heard that it was two guards who were talking, saying that two officials had betrayed Wu Hongzhi, shaking off all the things that Wu Hongzhi had done over the years to harm the people, accept bribes, and frame officials out.

The insider was shocked when he heard this, he didn't care about going to the bathroom, and hurried back to write a letter to Wu Hongzhi, reporting all this to him.

When Wu Hongzhi received the letter, he was worried and angry. After thinking for a long time, he decided to take a risky move.

He quickly edited a book, walked up to a black flying pigeon, put the letter into a thin bamboo tube on its feet, and let the flying pigeon fly.

After the flying pigeon circled around the Wu Mansion, it flew towards the direction of Xiyue Kingdom.

Time flies, time is rushing, and the day of Prince Yue's marriage is getting closer and closer. Officials from all over the Liuli Kingdom have also rushed to the capital to congratulate.

The disappearance of several officials before was quickly covered up by this happy event.

When Hei Yanyue got married, the happiest thing was Princess Rui. She was extravagant and celebrated with the whole house.

There are red ribbons floating in every corner of the palace, and big red happy characters are pasted everywhere. The servants, maids, and guards in the whole palace also put on new clothes and shoes, a scene full of joy and joy.

But Hei Yanyue, who is the protagonist, was so busy that he couldn't even find a figure, and everything that was being prepared in the mansion seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Princess Rui wanted to discuss marriage with him several times, but because of the previous incident, she endured and endured, and in the end she still didn't send anyone to find him, and she took full responsibility for everything about the marriage.

Seeing that there are still three days to go until the wedding day, but Hei Yanyue, who is the leading actor, is so busy that she doesn't even have time to try on the wedding dress.

Although Princess Rui was domineering and unreasonable in front of Hei Yanyue, but Hei Yanyue held the evidence that she framed Nangong De, so she had a guilty side in front of him after all.

Regarding Hei Yanyue's attitude, she didn't think that he would be any better, as long as he would show up on the day of marriage, she didn't have to pursue anything else with him.

However, no one expected that just two days before Hei Yanyue got married, a letter came from the frontier, and Xiyue Kingdom sent 150 million troops to attack Liuli Kingdom.

And the leader of the army is Ling Shijie, Marshal Ling who is well-known in Xiyue Kingdom and has the title of God of War.

As soon as this letter arrived, there was an uproar in the court hall of the Liuli Kingdom.

Many officials recommended several generals of the Liuli Kingdom to go to the frontier to fight Ling Shijie. However, after recommending them again and again, there was no suitable general who could lead a million troops to the frontier to fight Ling Shijie.

In the end, Wu Hongzhi stepped forward and recommended Hei Yanyue as commander, and led millions of soldiers to the frontier to meet the enemy.

In the entire Liuli Kingdom, only Hei Yanyue has the ability to lead a million soldiers to a duel with Ling Shijie.

Wu Hongzhi's recommendation was echoed by all the officials below, and Hei Yanye also wanted to let Hei Yanyue go.

Several generals of the Liuli Kingdom have 30 soldiers and horses in their hands, and Hei Yanyue has 50 soldiers and horses under his name. If the soldiers and horses in the hands of several people are combined, then a million troops can be assembled.

If Hei Yanyue is the commander of this million-strong army, then he can take the opportunity to allocate the soldiers and horses in the hands of the generals promoted by Wu Hongzhi to Hei Yanyue's name. The military power in his hands will definitely weaken a lot.

When Hei Yanyue received the imperial decree, he was taken aback.

It was beyond his expectation that Xiyue Kingdom invaded Liuli Kingdom, and it was also beyond his expectation that his cousin would send him to the frontier on the day of his marriage.

Seeing that he was only one step away from bringing down Wu Hongzhi, in just three days, he would have made him speechless and confess his guilt. However, his cousin sent him to the frontier at this juncture.

Hei Yanyue hurriedly took the imperial decree and galloped all the way to the palace.

"Cousin, Xiyue Kingdom invaded Liuli Kingdom, what's going on?" Hei Yanyue rushed into Hei Yanyue's Qianyue Hall, placed the imperial decree on his table, and asked anxiously.

Hei Yanye closed the memorial that he had just finished correcting, raised his eyes to look at Hei Yanyue, he waved his hand, and told all the eunuchs and maids in Qianyue Hall to retreat.

Then, he wondered, "I also find it very strange that Xiyue Kingdom will not invade sooner or later, but why it wants to provoke our country at this juncture."

"You mean, Wu Hongzhi is behind the scenes?" Hei Yanyue gritted her teeth, clenched her fists, and there was a storm about to come.

Wu Hongzhi, if he was really behind the scenes, wouldn't he have betrayed the Liuli Kingdom long ago?

"I'll investigate this matter." Hei Yanye said lightly, "You investigated Wu Hongzhi's matter, how is it going?"

"Hmph, in three more days, he will never be able to recover." Hei Yanyue's eyes were cold, murderous intent flashed past.

Although he has some evidence in hand, Wu Hongzhi is a thousand-year-old fox, and if there is not enough evidence for him to plead guilty, he will definitely not obediently plead guilty.

At that time, if he fails once, he will startle the snake, and the next time he wants to bring him down, it will be even more difficult.

Although the officials above the imperial court all abandoned their secrets and turned to the bright ones, they were just civil servants, and the military officers under the name of the Wu family were the real power of the Liuli Kingdom.

As long as those military officers remain unchanged, Wu Hongzhi's power may appear to be in great turmoil on the surface, but in reality it is full of thunder and rain.

"It's a coincidence that this incident happened at this juncture. If Wu Hongzhi is really behind the scenes, then after he takes you to the border, he will definitely make another move." Hei Yanye's finger , tapping rhythmically on the table, his eyes full of shrewdness.

"Yue, you put down what you are doing and lead the troops to the frontier. As for Wu Hongzhi, leave it to me, and I will send secret guards to continue the investigation."

"Cousin..."

Hei Yanyue wanted to ask Hei Yanye to let him stay for another three days, and after he overthrows Wu Hongzhi, he will join the battle in the borderless world. , He hesitated to speak this sentence several times, but finally did not say it.

After Hei Yanyue handed over all the evidence he had investigated to Hei Yanye, he left the palace and returned to Moon Palace.

Hei Yanyue saw that the Moon Palace was full of red, and the corner of his mouth coldly curled up with a hint of sarcasm, hmph, there was no groom at the wedding, so he wanted to see how his mother and concubine would proceed with the marriage?
The imperial decree of Hei Yanyue's going to the battlefield not only turned black with fright, but even everyone in the palace was shocked and astonished.

They have been busy preparing for this wedding for more than ten days, and it seems that there are still two days left, but God is not happy. At this time, what kind of decree has been issued by the emperor to ruin their joy.

Princess Rui was even more furious. The sunny sky was instantly covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder.
