After the eldest sister of the wronged family was reborn, she created a whole family of ungrateful p

"I am wronged, it's not me, father, please see clearly!"

Li Zhan tried desperately to break free from the soldiers escorting him and struggled to go in and plead with the emperor.

Qin Zhuo, dressed in red, had a cold face, like an impartial judge: "Take him away!"

Li Zhan was bent over by the pressure. He hated it so much: "Qin Zhuo, you idiot, why don't you catch the real murderer and frame me?"

Qin Zhuo leaned forward, his eyes cold and evil, and he said, "Your Highness, when you found out about the Crown Prince's accident the day before yesterday, you laughed really loudly. Why aren't you laughing now?"

Looking at Li Zhan's angry eyes, Qin Zhuo said again: "I know it's not you, but all the evidence points to you. Instead of being helpless and furious here, you should think about who framed you for this crime."

"You want to sit back and watch the fire, gloat over the misfortune, but now if you can't find the real culprit, you will be the scapegoat!"

When the Sixth Prince heard that the Crown Prince was assassinated and was going to die, he couldn't stop laughing. Unfortunately, he laughed too early and the anger got to him.

Live it!

Li Zhan was dragged away, but he didn't scream this time. Apparently he finally realized that begging was useless and he had to save himself.

If he can't prove his innocence, he's really finished.

"Sir, it's King Zhao."

Qin Zhuo looked up and saw King Zhao being pushed slowly in a wheelchair on the palace road in the distance. That was the direction of the East Palace.

King Zhao also noticed Qin Zhuo, but he just turned his head and glanced at him from a distance, then quickly disappeared around the corner.

Qin Zhuo narrowed his eyes slightly, murderous intent emerged, but was quickly suppressed.

He knew that the assassin was the work of King Zhao, but he had no evidence.

King Zhao had been in power for many years and his influence had infiltrated various families. He used a spy planted in the Han family to participate in the assassination, pinned the blame on Li Zhan, and completely extricated himself.

If Shen Ning hadn't pointed out King Zhao before, he probably wouldn't have noticed him.

King Zhao wanted to let the Crown Prince and the Sixth Prince fight with each other so that he could reap the benefits. His plan was very sound, but it was a pity.

He could use Prince Zhao's frame-up to bring down the Sixth Prince, but he could also turn around and send Prince Zhao to hell.

One of them bowed over and approached Qin Zhuo before whispering, "Master, Miss Shen is awake."

Qin Zhuo's tense expression suddenly relaxed: "I understand."

He wanted to go back to see her immediately. She had suffered a lot this time, all because of that idiot Li Yan. He insisted on going to the villa for no reason, and ended up being robbed and killed, and Shen Ning was implicated as well.

He was thinking about Shen Ning in his heart while scolding Li Yan, but he went to neither side. He turned his head to look at the Emperor's bedroom behind him. The light in his eyes slowly faded, pointing to a deep abyss.

He couldn't wait any longer, he had to make a decision now.

----

After a short nap, Shen Ning woke up again and realized that she was in Qin Zhuo's room. Qin Zhuo was still in the palace and had not returned yet, but this was not what she cared about most now.

When Liuying and Yuzhu came to Qin's house, Qin Zhuo had already gone out with his men. Although their hard work was of no use, at least they returned safely.

But Mo Lin and the remaining guards were not so lucky. Four servants died, and Mo Lin's whereabouts were unknown.

Shen Ning felt that he was most likely in the hands of the Thousand Faces Ghost Fox. After all, the Thousand Faces Ghost Fox had been in and out of the Shen family many times in the guise of Tao Ji. She recognized Mo Lin, so it was not impossible that she spared his life.

But falling into Tao Ji's hands was equivalent to falling into King Zhao's hands.

"I want to go back to the Shen family."

Shen Ning wanted to leave, so Lu Mei and Zi Yan naturally stopped her: "Miss, you just woke up, and your body is still weak. The imperial physician said you need to stay in bed and rest, and you can't move around."

Shen Ning has no time to care about his self-cultivation.

"It's the same if I go back to the Shen family to recuperate. The servants around me are all dead, and Mo Lin is missing. I have to go back to arrange things."

Lumei and Ziyan looked at each other and said, "No, you can't go back. The master brought you here so that you can recover in peace and not be disturbed by others."

Zi Yan thought for a moment and said, "Miss, you have to lie down when you go back, and you can only give instructions to others verbally. How about this, I will call Liuying and Yuzhu, and you can tell them if you have anything to say. You can also meet Miss Du and Princess Changle."

Shen Ning thought about it and agreed to this arrangement.

She didn't necessarily want to bring trouble upon herself, but she had to make the decision on such a serious matter as a death.

Lumei went to notify them personally, and brought all four people in less than an hour.

Finally seeing Shen Ning, the four of them felt distressed and relieved. They didn't dare to cry, but held their tears and comforted her.

Liuying told Shen Ning everything about the dead servant. She had already given him a sum of money as a consolation. The rest depended on what Shen Ning would do.

Shen Ning told Liuying about his plans and asked her and Yuzhu to carry them out together. Not only did they have to appease these people, but the Shen family also had to recruit new guards.

Liuying was temporarily in charge of the shop affairs. Fortunately, she had already planned out the goods that Zhu Feng brought, otherwise Liuying would be too busy to handle it.

As for Mo Lin... Shen Ning really has no way to deal with it for the time being, so he still has to ask Qin Zhuo for help.

"Tell Xue'er that I will definitely bring her brother back."

Shen Ning was still not in good spirits. He was exhausted after talking for a while. Seeing this, the four people left.

This was not the first time that Lumei and Zi Yan had taken care of Shen Ning, and the sentry posts they saw on the way here proved the safety of this place, so the four of them were not worried that Shen Ning would not have a good time here.

--

Shen Ning was still worrying about how to rescue Mo Lin, but he didn't expect something big to happen that night.

The emperor was poisoned and vomited blood, shocking the whole government and the public.

The prince and the emperor had accidents one after another, which clearly meant the storm was coming.

The emperor vomited blood twice and his body weakened rapidly. The imperial physician knew that he was poisoned, but no one knew what this strange poison was. A group of people racked their brains, but they could only temporarily relieve the emperor's pain.

For three consecutive days, the prince's condition gradually stabilized, but the emperor was gradually approaching the gates of death.

At this time, war news suddenly came from the border. Xiliang and Beidi sent troops to attack the border of Yan State at the same time and had already captured two cities. All the civil and military officials were panicked for a while.

It was really a case of when it rains and when it pours, both the crown prince and the emperor had fallen, and there was no one who could take charge of the situation at this time.

Then someone pushed King Zhao out.

King Zhao was the only prince who was crowned as a king and the eldest among all the princes. It was his turn to take the lead at this time.

Originally, some people were dissatisfied with King Zhao's lameness, but when they saw that King Zhao handled state affairs decisively, the voices of opposition became smaller.

Although King Zhao had convinced all the civil and military officials, he still needed the emperor's seal to mobilize troops, so he had to seek the emperor's consent.

King Zhao sat in a wheelchair, looking humble and respectful to his father, and did not seem aggressive at all.

He explained the interests involved to the emperor and told him that sending troops was imperative.

However, no matter how sincere and useful his words were, what the emperor saw at this moment was that Prince Zhao wanted to take his tiger talisman and jade seal.
