Chapter 365 Have you ever assassinated King Xiaoyao?
Xia Houting was in a good mood.
Princess Changying, who had been waiting for eight years, was finally going to marry her.
Thinking of Cao Ying's beautiful face and graceful figure, his mouth almost watered down. What's more, the glory and power she represented behind her?
With Cao Ying, not only did she gain a peerless beauty, but she also gained an irreplaceable status. The position of the heir to the Xiahou clan was now stable.
Not to mention other brothers, no one can do anything to me even if the aunt who has just entered the house and is loved by thousands of people has ten or eight children.
The only thing that bothered him was that there had been rumors from the outside world that Princess Changying had some unexplainable relationship with King Xiaoyao of Qin. After all, countless people saw King Xiaoyao holding Cao Ying while racing in the street.
This incident almost made him go crazy at first, not only because of the feeling of being a cuckold, but more importantly, if he could not get Cao Ying, the loss would be too great.
For this reason, after that incident, he secretly made great efforts to spread the news, trying to show that he was just in a hurry to save the princess that day.
Not only that, he also spread the word that there was discord between Qin and Wei, that there was absolutely no possibility between the two, and so on.
In fact, it played a great role, but the people of Wei felt more regretful.
Many people hope that this goddess who protects the country and is loved as a treasure by the people can marry King Xiaoyao. The two are talented and beautiful, what a perfect match. Of course, many people think that this can ease the relationship between Qin and Wei.
Naturally, these will inevitably make Xiahou stop holding back his anger.
Although King Wei and the princess agreed to this matter, he still felt awkward in his heart. He thought about it and struggled for a long time. He always felt that Jiang Fan was just a fisherman with no background. How capable could he be? There is a high probability that he is.
The empress admired his literary talents, so she finally couldn't help but send someone to secretly assassinate Jiang Fan while he was in Xia Kingdom.
But after just a brief trial, he gave up the idea in horror. The water in Xiaoyao Wang was too deep and there was no bottom.
Therefore, although he did this secretly, he was still worried for a long time. Fortunately, no one has troubled him until today, and it seems that he has not been exposed. Biquku
He breathed a sigh of relief and gained beauty and status at the same time. Xia Houting was beyond happy.
Therefore, the eldest son of Xiahou, who was always willing to spend money, rewarded everyone in the house with a lot of money for the first time.
He even made a special trip to visit the newly arrived eighth aunt.
Because according to him
As we know, the reason why the old man worked so hard this time was because the aunt said a lot of nice things behind his back.
This surprised Xiahou Ting. You must know that everyone including him was very resistant to this person at first.
Unexpectedly, this aunt was actually very helpful. Therefore, he generously sent a large cart of gifts to the eighth aunt, and she also treated him to a meal. Everyone was very happy.
For him whose mother died young, gaining the friendship of this much-loved aunt is also a big gain.
The proud Xia Hou was drinking and having fun with a middle-aged man wearing a Taoist robe.
"Congratulations, eldest son."
The middle-aged man cupped his hands and said.
"Haha... Come, come, it's thanks to my husband's idea to urge the marriage at this juncture that I got my wish. Come, come and have a drink!"
The middle-aged man also said happily: "Now that the wedding date has been decided, the third day of next month is the master's wedding day. I will drink the master's wedding wine in advance."
"Hahaha, good job, you will definitely be rewarded when the time comes!"
When I was happy, a servant suddenly ran in with a panicked expression.
"Eldest Young Master, Eldest Young Master, something happened!"
Xia Houting leaned on the recliner with his plump body: "What's all the fuss about?"
The servant's expression changed and he said: "...Young Master, I don't know who made up the news. Now there is something spreading outside, saying... saying..."
"What did you say?" Xia Houchun said impatiently.
The servant looked at him timidly: "Sir, you assassinated King Xiaoyao. The evidence is conclusive..."
"What?!" Xia Houchun trembled all over, and his fat body suddenly jumped up. He reached out and grabbed the man's collar.
"Where did you hear that?"
The servant stammered: "It is being spread everywhere now, Jian'an...Jian'an is almost spreading...many people are saying...all saying..."
"What are you talking about!" Xia Houting said angrily.
"It is said that the young master was jealous and resentful, and deliberately destroyed the relationship between Qin and Wei..."
Xia Houchun immediately became furious. It is understandable that he was jealous and resentful. What happened to this deliberate destruction of the relationship between Qin and Wei?
Under his loud questioning, the servant said tremblingly: "It is said that Wei State finally signed a friendly trade treaty with Da Qin and was able to withdraw the Western Army to fight against Jin Xia. But the Western Army belongs to Cao Zhang, and now Cao Gong's military exploits are shining, threatening the world.
Due to his status as a commander, the young master’s actions were... deliberately to annoy the Qin State so that the Western Army could withdraw.
biquku
To solidify his position as commander..."
"What a fucking fart!"
Xiahou Ting's Qiqiao was filled with smoke, and he was so angry that he pushed the servant to the ground and kicked him violently.
The servant held his head and begged again and again: "Master, please spare your life. This is not what the villain said. I just gave you a message..."
"Send a message, send a message, send a bird message!"
After saying that, he picked up the wine flask and smashed it hard on his head and face. It wasn't until the man slowly became silent that he dropped the bloody wine flask with an angry groan.
The middle-aged man stepped forward and said, "Eldest Master, please calm down. Eldest Young Master, please calm down. There is something fishy about this matter."
Xia Houting said angrily: "This is pure nonsense, who is trying to frame me!"
The middle-aged man said: "I have never heard of this news before. It should have broken out suddenly, but it spread so fast. It is obvious that someone is pushing it behind the scenes. We have to find the root cause, otherwise we will be very passive."
Xia Houting said anxiously: "I understand this, but you can tell me who is most likely?"
The middle-aged man pondered for a while and said: "My eldest son, if he can do such a thing, he must be extremely at odds with you. Think about it, who is most likely to do it?"
Xiahou stopped walking around, as restless as an ant on a hot pot.
"Discord, discord, discord with me..." He thought for a long time before saying, "There are many..."
The middle-aged man was also speechless: "Think about it, which one is the most likely?"
Xia Houting frowned and thought hard: "There are indeed two people, but they don't seem to look alike."
The middle-aged man said: "Then it is very likely that the other party wants to destroy the marriage. Think about it, who is most beneficial to this matter?"
Xia Houting said: "There are too many people who are beneficial, some are overt and some are covert, how can we guess!"
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment: "If this is the case, we have to trace the source. Sir...if I'm honest, have you...ever done this?"
Xia Houchun's face was cloudy and he was just pacing back and forth.
Looking at his state, the middle-aged man obviously knew what he was doing. He couldn't help but sigh to himself, he was really out of his mind. How could he do such a stupid thing?
No wonder people say that Xiahou Ting looks like a pig but is as stupid as a pig.
But as the proprietor of his own food and clothing, the middle-aged man could only curse in his heart, but he still came up with a plan.
"My lord, this is not going to be easy... unless we can... create some evidence to prove that this news is false and is nonsense.
