Chapter 183

The emperor glanced behind her, “Where is Xian Yang?”

Rong Xiangmian replied, “Just now, the Feather Forest Guards came to look for Your Highness, he went out.”

The Emperor looked at Duan Fei with suspicion, Duan Fei was looked at with a blank expression, “Feilinwei? How could the Feather Forest Guards come looking for King Yu at night, there’s no such thing!”

The Emperor is about to send someone to find Yü Wang to ask him questions, when he stops and Yü Wang’s voice comes from the next palace courtyard: “Haha, I’m going to win, fourth brother, I’m not going to be able to win against you again!”

The emperor heard the voice and immediately led the crowd to the Bishui Terrace next door. This palace is specially built for the royal family to send the funeral to the mausoleum to stay and live, not luxurious, the scale is also not big, the various palaces and courtyards are relatively close to each other.

King Yuh and King Yun are playing a game in the pavilion in the courtyard.

Seeing the emperor’s sudden arrival, they rise and salute.

The emperor swept a glance at the chessboard, this game has come to an end, “White is going to lose.”

Yun Wang laughed, “Fourth brother is not in a good mood tonight, if in normal times I would not be able to play him.”

The Emperor sized him up, “Xian Yang, what’s wrong with you?”

Zhou Xian Yang threw the chess piece in his hand back to the chess set and said in a deep voice, “Father, someone posed as a feather guard in the palace and told me that Empress Zhang had brought people to break into the mausoleum to kill the Yu Clan, with the intention of luring me to break into the mausoleum.”

Duan Fei, who was following behind, was shocked at his words.

Zhou Xian Yang winked at Xiao Bei, and Xiao Bei immediately went to bring in the men.

Zhou Xian Yang told him in detail about the “Fei Lin Guards” tipping him off, and then asked, “Father, is the mausoleum all right?”

The emperor shook his head, “The new guards at the mausoleum are doing their job, the empress just lost her temper, she’s fine.”

Zhou Xian Yang knew that it was definitely not that simple, but did not say any more.

Seeing him, the Emperor asked, “How did you know that the man was impersonating a feather guard?”

“Since I was a child, Chief Duan has been with my father, and he knows that the Emperor has already decreed that I am not allowed to have any dealings with the Yu Clan. When something happened at the Imperial Tomb, how could he possibly let the Feather Forest Guards come to me?”

Duan Fei was at the side, heavily emphasizing his head.

“When I sensed that something was wrong, I left the palace and came back through the east gate to find Fifth Brother, and asked Xiao Bei to follow the person who reported the message, wanting to see who was actually spying on me behind my back. Unfortunately, they were cautious in the way they passed on the message, and the other party didn’t show up at all, so I had to send someone to tie him up first.”

Soon Xiao Bei escorted that person who tipped off the others in.

Duan Fei swept a glance, “Your Majesty, this person is definitely not a Feather Forest Guard. Although the Feather Forest Guards are numerous, the ones accompanying them this time are all elites, and I recognize all of them.”

Facing the emperor’s uncertain look, Zhou Xian Yang said, “Tonight, at the Jiuzhou Terrace night banquet, my son felt that something was not right. No matter how stupid King Li was, he wouldn’t have assassinated Zou tonight and left her alive, leading to his own revelation. Then who exactly was the one who assassinated her? This person pretended to be a feathered guard to give me information, and for what purpose? Can’t it be that he also wanted me to be anxious and break into the mausoleum at night to save Yu, and then be caught red-handed? The King of Qi is gone, the King of Li is gone, and now it’s my turn, next might be Xianhui ……”

When King Yun heard this, he waved his hands, “I’m just a prince who eats, drinks and winds up every day, who would want to harm me?”

The emperor’s face was already extremely gloomy, he slowly walked closer to the man kneeling on the ground, “Who instructed you to impersonate the Featherwood Guard?”

That person just bowed his head and didn’t say a word.

Duan Fei thought for a moment, “Your Majesty, today the palace is heavily guarded, there is absolutely no way for a raw face to break in from the outside, it should have been lurking within the palace previously, or ……”

Duan Fei didn’t finish his sentence, but the Emperor already understood. Today, he had brought over two of his close troops, the Yu Lin Guards and the Criminal Precepts Division.

The matter of the Penal Precepts Division monitoring Yu Wang’s residence had been called off by the Emperor since the beginning of spring after Yu Wang saved the day. However, when Consort Yü Wang entrusted General Zhengbei to bring the painting, as well as the incident just now, it was Xiao Gong who took the initiative to inform Yü Wang of his actions.

Previously, Xiao Gong’s investigation into the assassination at the schoolyard and King Li’s life were both extremely efficient, making the emperor extraordinarily satisfied with this department, but now that the association has been made, it’s not right. The Criminal Justice Department is one by one, to solve the hot prince.

Could it be that the Department of Criminal Justice has recognized a new master?

Who is the new master?

To this day, how can he see it.

The emperor returned to his palace room, summoned Xiao Gong of the Criminal Investigation Department and his beloved subordinates, saying that he would like to commend them for their ability to quickly solve important cases, avoiding the chaos of the royal bloodline and shaking the kingdom.

Xiao Gong immediately brought people to salute and thank you, only to kneel down and never get up again.

Featherwood guards elite group of three from the dark corners of the hall, rushed out, with weapons firmly restrain them.

Xiao Gong looked terrified: ”Your Majesty! What errand did the humble servant do wrong?”

The Emperor coldly said, “You were right, you did it well and smartly. I’m not even dead yet, and you’ve already found yourself a good new master.”

The feathered guards were even more surprised than they were just now when they heard this. The Penal Preceptors and them were the Emperor’s trusted troops, and had always only looked out for the Emperor.

When the emperor said that he had found a new master, wouldn’t that mean that another prince was going to fall.

Xiao Gong was going to argue further when a man drenched in blood was thrown in.

“This is your man, although not in the Department of Penal Precepts, he is your beloved. He’s the one who impersonated King Li’s men today and assassinated Zou, forcing her to go to the Nine Continents Terrace for help!”

A chill rose from Xiao Gong’s heart. He was used to being a yellow bird, and today he suddenly realized that he was nothing more than a grasshopper in the autumn.

Seeing this look, the emperor was quite pleased at the moment: “From the day I heard the rumors about the life of the King of Li, I knew that it was definitely not by chance, and that there must be someone behind the scenes who pushed the rumors, so I strengthened the guards in the palace and waited for the rabbits. Xiao Gong, read you half a life for me to run around, do a good job, I give you a chance to recruit people, I leave you a life.”

Xiao Gong know that if you recruit will die, insisted: “I just want to worry for your majesty, tonight let Zou face to face to reveal, also want to help your majesty as soon as possible to distinguish the original.”

“Are you sharing my worries, or for King Qing?”

Until this moment, Xiao Gong completely lost all strength to argue and collapsed to the ground.

After the horrible silence, the emperor leisurely said, “Xian Yao is very smart, knowing the trick of sitting on the mountain and killing with a sword. It’s just that it’s too much.”

Xiao Gong was unable to do so, and could only give a full account of the matter of when he started to be loyal to King Qing.

After returning to the capital, Mr. and Mrs. Yu Wang directly into the Jing Yi Yuan summer recuperation.

It was heard that the Marquis Yongan’s residence had been copied, however, the matter of King Qing colluding with the □□ bandits to kill in Jinling and create the Jiangzhou catastrophe had not been rumored.

“The Emperor will no longer protect King Qing. He dared to hit the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and there is no need for the Emperor to tolerate the Marquis of Yong’an just to look out for him. Zhang Huai must have known that his card was already wasted in his hands when the Ministry of Penal Discipline came to his door, so why not sell out and give the Zhang family’s children a chance to live?” Yang Zhou Xian explained to Xiao Bei in this way.

With King Li’s denunciation of the Marquis of Yongan’s case, the Marquis of Yongan’s case ended with the men being exiled to Lingnan for 3,000 miles, and the women not being criminal slaves in the palace, so they were able to save their lives after all.

King Qing’s matter, involving the royal family scandal, the emperor did not hand over to the three departments of the trial, just with the seven royal uncle with the Zongrenfu secret verification of the case, confirmed and did not publish, but directly under an imperial decree: Xian Yao’s people, ill-intentioned, negative royal grace, ashamed of the gods and goddesses of the earth and the gods of the world, relegated to the Yu State Duke, with immediate effect, relocated to the state of Liang, may not return to the capital.

This is almost equal to the King of Qing expelled from the clan.

This matter shook the court and the countryside, a seven pearl prince was suddenly devalued, although it does not shake the country’s foundation, but King Kai, King Qing, and King Li, three princes fell one after another, which only made people feel that a mountain rain is coming.

Countless pairs of eyes are staring at Yü Wang’s mansion, wondering what Yü Wang, the biggest beneficiary of these accidents, will do.

When Tan Xun comes to the Jing Yi Yuan to look for Zhou Xian Yang, it’s late afternoon and the heat has subsided a bit. He greets him and sees that Yü Wang is busy bathing a small black cat, sweating profusely and his entire being is not well.

“The entire capital is waiting to see His Highness King Yu’s play, if they knew you were busy with these unimportant things, they would probably be furious.”

Zhou Xian Yang couldn’t be bothered to talk to him about business.

Xiao Hei has now been fed into a big black by the Yuhang Palace, his fat body struggling unyieldingly in Zhou Xian Yang’s hands, but he can’t escape from the palm of his hand, and he can only breathe out of his nostrils, impotently and furiously being washed twice with soap horn water.

After pouring a whole basin of black water and replacing it with another basin, the black cat shook a few times, splashing water all over Zhou Xian Yang’s face. Rong Xiangmian hurriedly took a hand towel to dry Xiao Hei, who rubbed against her affectionately, wailing and complaining as if he had just been bullied by Zhou Xian Yang, and then stood up unexpectedly and kissed Xiangmian’s face.

Zhou Xian Yang’s eyes narrowed slightly, and his long arm reached out to snatch the cat along with the hand towel and shoved it to Xiao Bei.

“What are you doing?” Rong Xiangmian frowned, “You’re even jealous of a cat!”

“Uh-huh.” Zhou Xian Yang spoke out loud, Rong Xiangmian didn’t bother to pay attention to him, and brought the cat back, dried it carefully, fed him water, and only then let him go to play.

Rong Xiangmian laughed heartily as she watched the black cat run after the butterflies on the ground. She picked up a new hand towel and wiped the water off Zhou Xianyang’s face and hands.

This is how it is in the hot weather, when you live away from the world, busy with these things that don’t matter. In this world, there are a lot of things that don’t matter, they are together, how can they not be done.

Looking at Yu Wang imploringly letting Consort Yu Wang wipe his face, Tan Xun felt that he was too redundant, coughed, and prepared to take his leave.

Only then do they remember that there’s a guest next to them and hurry to treat him to some chilled fruit drinks.

Tan Xun a cup of down a cup of good not happy, only then whispered: “My father said, the palace issued a secret decree, to the King of Li can not live through the New Year to go. Gave the bloodthirsty loose, daily mixed in the Li Wang’s prison meal, called noiselessly results of him. I didn’t expect ah, this illustrious Li Wang will actually live out his life in the Ministry of Criminal Affairs prison.”

Unexpectedly, King Yu heard this and instead looked at the crown princess and sneered, “To die like this is too cheap for him.”

Before Tan Xun could react, Xiao Nan had already looked at King Yu’s wink and took out a packet of long-prepared medicinal powder from his sleeve, handing it to Tan Xun.

“Feed it to him when his time is up, so that he can experience the feeling of drilling his heart and plucking out his bones before he dies.” Yu Wang slowly peeled a fresh grape and handed it to the Wangfei’s lips. The wangfei did not seem to have an appetite, and he did not force himself, dropping the grape into his own mouth.

Tan Xun is a bit surprised, in his impression, King Yu’s character would not drop a stone towards someone who is about to die.

He thought to himself that it must be that King Li had done something even more excessive than he knew, so he obliged and didn’t ask much. Just looking at King Yu who eyed him out of the garden, Tan Xun suddenly felt unfamiliar.

He should have known that this person was no longer the Fourth Highness Zhou Xian Yang that he had been studying with in the palace.

But what does it matter? He had to do his best for Zhou Xian Yang, both in public and in private.

At that last glance, he saw King Yu turn back and gently embrace the princess in his arms, as if he was comforting her.

A thought suddenly popped into his head: King Li had offended the crown princess, and Zhou Xian Yang was avenging her.
