The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Chapter 476 Gossip about the situation (2)

I thought that the three beasts would have some changes or other reactions after eating black Ganoderma lucidum, but unexpectedly nothing happened after waiting for a long time, which made Mo Yanbai look forward to it.

She didn't know that the reason why the three beasts didn't react was because their bodies had been transformed by the spiritual spring water. In addition, they drank the spiritual spring water every day. There were almost no impurities in their bodies and they could easily withstand the powerful medicinal power of black ganoderma. Moreover, eating black Ganoderma is not completely useless, but the specific changes cannot be seen for the time being!

The next day, Xiao Ruiyuan was assassinated on his way back to Beijing. The news of the danger seemed to have wings and spread quickly throughout the streets and alleys of the capital. For a time, there were voices discussing the matter everywhere, all kinds of true and false. Rumors are also spreading among the people.

Under the deliberate guidance of caring people, the voices of grievance for Xiao Ruiyuan became louder and louder. Within three days, thousands of ordinary people spontaneously ran to the palace gate and knelt down, praying that Emperor Hui'an would thoroughly investigate the assassination and lead the investigation. General Xiao, who defended his family and country and drove away the Ba people, gave an explanation.

If Xiao Ruiyuan was assassinated or defeated in the position of commander-in-chief of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, these ordinary people may not necessarily buy his account and stand up for him. Because of this, more and more people complained about him, and many neutral officials began to write letters on his behalf, requesting Emperor Hui'an to order a thorough investigation.

 Emperor Hui'an, who was widely praised among the people for being able to manage such a large country in an orderly manner, was called the "Mingjun" and was obviously not a confused emperor. Not only was he not confused, he even got the news that Xiao Ruiyuan had been assassinated and was in critical condition because he was poisoned by the same poison as the prince. He was so angry that he turned the tables on the imperial court. After calming down, he dispatched the best doctor from the imperial hospital to rush to the scene. He went to the Prince's Mansion to diagnose and treat Xiao Ruiyuan, and on the other hand, sent someone to secretly investigate the whole story of the assassination.

Although after several days of searching, he didn't find many valuable things, but all the signs pointed to the other princes and princes, making him have to doubt his sons who were always making little moves!

But no matter how bad his son was, no matter how angry he was, he was still his son. If this incident hadn't become known to everyone, he could only turn a blind eye and blame it on the Ba people, and then By beating several sons on the head, Xiao Ruiyuan or the prince can be compensated from other places.

The assassination incident intensified, and soon there were rumors among the people that several princes and princes wanted to seize the throne of the crown prince, so they sent many assassins in an attempt to eliminate the crown prince's right-hand man, General Xiao.

It is rumored that there are noses and eyes, so that the people do not believe it, they can't help but be worthless in their hearts. The great hero in their minds had gone through life and death for Dachu, and finally won the battle. He did not die in the hands of the enemy, but was almost killed by "one of our own" who only wanted to fight for power. It was so ridiculous and frustrating!

Even people who don’t have much respect for Xiao Ruiyuan feel chilled and panicked when they hear such rumors. If it is really the work of a few princes and princes, they have no regard for the overall situation and kill meritorious ministers at will. If this continues, who will dare to serve the royal family, who will protect the country of Chu and the safety of their people?

Thinking of this, people who had nothing to do with themselves also joined in the prayers. The entrance to the palace was crowded, and all the civil and military officials who went to court every day had to enter the palace from another gate. Emperor Hui'an's imperial case was presented like snowflakes.

 When things got to this point, Emperor Hui'an couldn't even pretend to be deaf and dumb to calm things down. Unexpectedly, before he could order his trusted ministers to conduct a "thorough investigation", someone came up with evidence to prove that the sixth prince, Prince Kang, who was canonized as an adult, had hoarded more than 300 killers, and a few days ago, he ambushed On his way back to Beijing, Xiao Ruiyuan brutally killed him.

As soon as this incident came out, the whole court was in an uproar!

Before Emperor Hui'an issued an order to verify the matter, the matter of King Kang's hoarding of assassins to assassinate Xiao Ruiyuan was publicized, making the people who were originally skeptical of several princes and princes more and more believe that there was a shady secret, and that there was someone bold enough to take advantage of the midnight. When no one was around, he carried a bucket full of filth and threw it on the gate of Prince Kang's Mansion.

No matter what Emperor Hui'an thought, because of the anger of the people, he had to issue an order to temporarily confine King Kang to Prince Kang's palace, and ordered to verify the authenticity of the evidence.

Xiao Ruiyuan, who was staying in the Prince's Mansion to recuperate in Chu Hengqiang, heard that King Kang was under investigation, and a flash of deep irony flashed in his eyes.

Compared with the possibility of losing his vitality at any time ten days ago, now he is no longer tortured by the heart-eating poison, and his complexion is much better. The injuries are also healed very quickly under the nourishment of the spiritual spring water and the superb medical skills of the ghost doctor.

Chu Heng was pushed in in a wheelchair. He seemed to be in a good mood. He said to Xiao Ruiyuan with a smile on his face: "We haven't taken action yet, but they eagerly pushed Lao Liu out as a shield just to clear the air." , if Lao Liu had known better, we might have been able to watch a dog-eat-dog show!"

Xiao Ruiyuan shook his head and analyzed calmly: "Three days have passed since the incident, and King Kang has not defended himself. I think it was because King Heng and others had the handle. I am afraid that he will take on this matter alone. I am curious. It’s not certain what leverage he has, and it can be used by us.”

After hearing this, Chu Heng's expression became solemn: "If Lao Liu takes over this matter, even if the father cares about his flesh and blood and family ties, it will be difficult to keep his title of prince, and he will be insulated from the position of crown prince from now on. Such a huge The price...it seems that the handle is not small!"

Xiao Ruiyuan was well aware of the stakes involved, and frowned and said, "Your Highness would be better off ordering someone to investigate this matter, maybe it can be used for us."

Chu Heng also had this idea and nodded in agreement.

The two discussed the next arrangements. Xu was in a good mood and the atmosphere was just right. Chu Heng couldn't hold back and asked about the black Ganoderma lucidum.

Xiao Ruiyuan never thought about hiding it, but this matter involved the woman he admired, so he had to be cautious. For a moment, hesitation appeared on his face.

Chu Heng was greatly surprised when he saw this. This cousin had always been vigorous and resolute. How had he ever felt like this before? He stared at Xiao Ruiyuan for a long time, and suddenly a bold guess came to his mind...
