I am the master of this world

Chapter 178 frame the blame
There is a bright moon in the sky and white snow on the ground.

After midnight, everything was silent, and Shen Ning had fallen asleep.

On the street, several black shadows flashed quickly, touched the outside of the house, and then turned over and entered the yard.They landed silently, holding bright sharp knives in their hands, and only their eyes were exposed under the cover of black clothes, cold-blooded and ruthless.

They locked Shen Ning's bedroom, rushed over, and kicked the door in.

Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of fighting in the house, accompanied by screams.

"dong dong dong"

The door was knocked, Shen Ning sat up and asked: "Solved?"

"Report to son, capture the two, and kill all other assassins." A man's voice sounded from outside the room.

Shen Ning got out of bed, put on a cloak and opened the room.

The north wind blew into the house, making the brazier crackle and making Shen Ning sleepless.

He walked out of the room and came to the bedroom in the backyard. He saw the dead bodies of men in black all over the floor, and two of them were tied up.

Shen Ning sat on the main seat and asked with a smile: "Tell me, who sent you here?"

The two men in black spoke stiffly, snorted coldly, and said nothing.

"Since you don't say it, then kill it!" Shen Ning said casually.

The guards immediately dragged the two of them away.

At the same time, Chang Yuchun escorted two girls in, they were the twin maids that Sima Haiyun gave to Shen Ning, Xiao Jin and Xiao Lian.

At this time, the two women were so frightened that their faces turned pale. When they saw Shen Ning, they quickly knelt down and kowtowed.

Shen Ning knew long ago that these two women were spies, but they were not Sima Haiyun's, but Jiang Xiao's.The assassin came directly tonight, and it was also the two women who tipped off the news.

The two girls fell into Chang Yuchun's hands, and they had already revealed everything.

"Tomorrow, send his two daughters back to the Southeast Prince's Mansion, tell the son, and say that I, Shen Ning, have no blessing to bear them." Shen Ning said.

Chang Yuchun nodded, cupped his fists and said, "I understand."

Shen Ning looked at the two women again, smiled gently, and asked, "Do you know how to speak then?"

The two women trembled, knowing that they couldn't survive, but thinking of their families, they nodded quickly.

In the early morning of the next day, the two girls were sent back to the Southeast Prince's Mansion, Sima Haiyun also knew the news of Shen Ning's attack.

Sima Haiyun was furious. Shen Ning was his lucky general. He was assassinated just after returning to Pengcheng. He simply didn't take him seriously. As for who the murderer was, do you still need to guess?

What made Sima Haiyun even more angry was that it was the two maids he sent out to inform him that his people had always been Jiang Xiao's eyes and ears, which made Sima Haiyun feel an unprecedented humiliation.

"Do you want to play? Okay, I will play with you!" Sima Haiyun directly brought two maids to see Sima Yue.

After Sima understood the cause and effect, he was also very angry.

He had been enduring all this time, but he didn't expect the other party to get worse.

Sima Haiyun said: "Father, I have heard that the Taoist golden elixir is probably in the hands of Jiang Xiao and has been hidden by him. Now he has disrespected his father's trust and behaved recklessly. He can no longer indulge. I have a problem. I want to investigate Jiang Xiao carefully. If the Taoist golden elixir is really hidden by him, then he will be guilty of an unforgivable crime! Even if he has served the Southeast Palace in these years, he cannot be forgiven!"

This time Sima Yue didn't refuse, and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Sima Haiyun immediately revealed the plan in his mind.

Sima Yue sighed and nodded.

After Sima Haiyun left, he immediately summoned Shen Ning.

"Shen Ning, send someone to arrest Jiang Xiao's son!"

As soon as they met, Sima Haiyun spoke first.

Shen Ning pretended to be surprised and asked: "The prince wants to interrogate Jiang Xiao's son in order to find out the whereabouts of the Taoist golden elixir? It's just that Jiang Xiao is particularly cunning. Will he tell his son the whereabouts of the Taoist golden elixir? I'm worried, Taoist golden elixir Dan has been ruined by Jiang Xiao."

Sima Haiyun shook his head and said: "The Taoist golden elixir is said to have miraculous healing effects and can save dying people. Such a good treasure is definitely a second life. Will Jiang Xiao be willing to destroy it?"

"That's right. It's my words. They must be hidden in the treasure house and kept well." Shen Ning agreed.

Sima Haiyun continued: "That's right! I will definitely hide it well. Maybe Jiang Xiao won't tell his son the whereabouts of the Taoist golden elixir, but Jiang Xiao's treasure house is hidden there, and his son may know it! If he can find it If you search that treasury, you may find the whereabouts of the Taoist Golden Elixir."

Shen Ning's eyes lit up, and he cupped his hands and praised: "Your Majesty is amazing, it's because of his lowly position and stupidity."

"This is your unintentional sentence that reminded me, haha," Sima Haiyun said proudly.

Shen Ning then said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. The matter of capturing Jiang Xiao's son will be left to my subordinates. But Your Highness, when will I take action?"

"I've convinced my royal father that there is no need to worry about the future. I will do it tonight. I can't wait to tear Jiang Xiao into pieces. How dare I plant a spy by my side, looking for death!" Sima Haiyun gritted his teeth with hatred completely induced.

Shen Ning immediately received the order to retreat.

The situation of Jiang Xiao's son Jiang Yuan had been found out a long time ago. It was a piece of cake to capture him, so they captured him that night while he was staying in a brothel.

Then it was handed over to Sima Haiyun, who personally supervised the inspection and beat Jiang Yuan to death. He told everything he knew. In fact, even he didn't know where his father's real treasure house was.But after all, he is Jiang Xiao's son, so he knows some secrets.

So Sima Haiyun also pried out some of Jiang Xiao's private houses.

"Shen Ning, send someone to search! Look for it!" Sima Haiyun said.

Shen Ning had long expected that this matter would fall on him, and this was exactly his intention.

Next, Shen Ning led people to search those private homes, and then found a brocade box in the study of one of the private homes, which contained a pill.

Naturally, this was directly released by Shen Ning during the search.

The elixir was quickly delivered to Sima Haiyun, and then to Sima Yue.

When Sima Yue heard that he had found an elixir, he sighed with surprise, but in order to confirm it, he quickly secretly summoned the alchemists in the city and asked them to identify it. Finally, the alchemist carefully checked the elixir and found that the elixir was similar to that of Taoism. The description of the golden elixir is exactly the same, and it can basically be confirmed that it is a Taoist golden elixir!
"Congratulations to my father, I have finally found the Taoist golden elixir, and my father's condition is expected to recover. I just didn't expect that Jiang Xiao, this thief is so hateful, he even hid the Taoist golden elixir privately, and watched his father's condition worsen! It's unreasonable How unreasonable!" Sima Haiyun shouted loudly.

Sima Yue was also angry. He hid the Taoist golden elixir privately, which definitely violated Sima Yue's Nilin. He immediately called for guards from the palace to capture Jiang Xiao.

Soon, Jiang Xiao was escorted back.

"My lord, please check clearly. I don't know what crime I have committed. Please give my lord a chance to prove my innocence!" Jiang Xiao thought that the collusion with Sima Haiying had been leaked. The rotten tongue, and so many years of contribution, the prince will definitely forgive him.

Unexpectedly, Sima Yue took out the Taoist golden elixir and asked in a cold voice: "Well, you Jiang Xiao, are you wasting my trust in you and leaving all the affairs of the palace to you? Is this how you repay me?" You hid the Taoist golden elixir secretly because you wanted to watch me die with your own eyes?"

Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded, and broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly denied: "Impossible, the people sent by the humble official to Longhu Mountain did not find the Taoist golden elixir at all, so how could it be hidden by the humble official? Even His Majesty's Dihuwei didn't search for it. When it comes to the Taoist golden elixir, how can a lowly position keep it private?"

"Then what is this?" Sima Yue picked up the Taoist Golden Elixir and asked in a cold voice.

Jiang Xiao hurriedly said: "This is definitely not a Taoist golden elixir, this is definitely someone who framed it!"

"Planting and framing? Who do you want to frame with the Taoist golden elixir? Who has the ability! The golden elixir was found in your private house, and it was your confidant who sent you to Longhu Mountain. Could it be that your confidant planted you?" Sima said angrily.

Jiang Xiao said eagerly: "My lord please enlighten me, this must not be a Taoist golden elixir, it must be a fake!"

"False? You're still saying it now! I have already found several alchemists. The time, refining techniques, and appearance of this Taoist golden elixir are all exactly right! How many times do you think someone would hide this golden elixir? Ten years, just to frame you?" Sima Yue was so angry that he became ill and coughed violently.

Sima Haiyun stepped forward to caress Sima Yue's back, and said: "Father, this thief is treacherous, and he is still making sophistry! Why listen to his nonsense! Since the evidence is solid, we must not tolerate it lightly!"

Jiang Xiao was even more flustered, kowtowed quickly, and said: "Please check it out, please check it out, the lowly position is wronged, it is wronged!"

"This king will ask you one last thing. Have you ever colluded with Sima Haiying to assassinate the crown prince?" Sima Yue asked coldly.

Jiang Xiao's lips trembled, and he wanted to refute, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't speak.Because he understood that since the prince asked this question, he must have found out the situation.

"Detain him and put him in death row!" Sima Yue took a deep breath and waved his hand.

The guards immediately escorted Jiang Xiao away.

"Father, big brother." Sima Haiyun didn't want to let Sima Haiying go.

But Sima Yue sighed, and said: "He is your elder brother after all, you must be tolerant of others when you inherit the title in the future."

Sima Haiyun was reluctant, but when he saw his father's expression was extremely grim, he nodded and then withdrew.

Returning to the house, Shen Ning was waiting.

Sima Haiyun told Shen Ning what happened. After hearing this, Shen Ning felt reassured and knew that Jiang Xiao was doomed.

"Jiang Xiao is really ashamed of his trust in the prince. I don't know how many bad things he has done in these years. I wonder if the prince will show mercy?" Shen Ning worried.

Sima Haiyun sneered, "No, don't even think about escaping after entering death row. I'll send someone to give him a ride. If he commits suicide, he'll be left with a dead body!"

Shen Ning nodded. With Sima Haiyun's temper, he would indeed not let Jiang Xiao go.

"The only pity is that Sima Haiying was not implicated, what a pity!" Sima Haiyun said angrily.

Shen Ning comforted: "Your Highness, he is your elder brother after all, with broken bones and tendons. I believe that following Jiang Xiao's accident, he will be honest and will not dare to have bad thoughts."

"Really? I don't think so!" Sima Haiyun's eyes flickered, and it could be seen that he still had no intention of letting Sima Haiying go.
