1019 Conspiracy

Ningguo Hou Mansion.

Xie Yu looked at Wang Gang and Gao Zhan in front of him. Although his heart was already in turmoil, he could only act calmly.

Emperor Liang asked him to hand over the military talisman of the patrol camp. No matter how unwilling he was, Xie Yu could only do it.

Not to mention the imperial army surrounding the Hou Mansion, even Wang Gang and Xie Yu, who were watching eagerly from the side, did not dare to mess around.

Having seen Wang Gang use people as weapons before, Xie Yu knew that the guards in his palace were not enough to kill Prince Jing alone.

It stands to reason that everyone is practicing martial arts, so why is Wang Gang's martial arts value so high? Even the top ten Langya masters listed together may not be his opponent.

This is simply cheating, how can other warriors in the world mess around?

Xie Yu reluctantly handed the tiger talisman to Wang Gang, and could only say with a smile on his face: "If there are any problems in the patrol camp, His Highness Prince Jing can come to me at any time."

Wang Gang took the tiger talisman and said with a smile: "Thank you, Lord Marquis, for your hard work for most of your life. It will be good for you to take good care of yourself at home in the future."

The corner of Xie Yu's mouth twitched, and he had to fake a smile, not daring to show a trace of unwillingness.

He still doesn't understand why Emperor Liang took away military power from him when he was so good.

If Wang Gang hadn't been present, Xie Yu would have asked Gao Zhan about everything he said.

"After receiving the decree from our family, we have to return to the palace to resume our duties." Gao Zhan said to Xie Yu with a pinched voice.

"Eunuch Gao has worked hard." Xie Yu prepared some small gifts and originally wanted Gao Zhan to take them back.

Unexpectedly, Gao Zhan, who always regarded wealth as his life, refused this time and did not dare to accept a penny.

Xie Yu finally realized that something big must have happened in the palace, and it was most likely related to the previous assassination of Emperor Liang.

After sending Gao Zhan and Wang Gang away, Xie Yu wanted to go to the Prince's East Palace immediately, but a young eunuch hurriedly came to report the news.

"Thank you, Lord Marquis, the prince's east palace has been sealed. Concubine Yue hopes that you will think of a way to save the prince."

Xie Yu recognized the young eunuch as someone from the palace of Concubine Yue, the prince's biological mother.

"What happened?" Xie Yu asked hurriedly.

"Youngster doesn't know either. The imperial concubine just asked me to report the news." After saying this, the young eunuch hurriedly returned to the palace.

Xie Yu couldn't sit still anymore and quickly contacted people from the Prince's Party, but was surprised to find that the Prince's Party, headed by Lou Zhijing, had all been taken away by the Xuanjing Division.

Where is the Xuanjing Division? I have never heard of anyone who was brought in who came out intact.

Xie Yu realized the seriousness of the problem and quickly contacted Xia Jiang, the head of the Xuanjing Division secretly.

Xia Jiang did not avoid Xie Yu, and the two found a secluded place to meet each other.

"Xia Shouzun, what on earth did the prince commit?"

"Master Xie is the prince's confidant. Don't you know that the prince intends to rebel?" Xia Jiang sneered.

"Impossible, how could the prince rebel!" Xie Yuguai shouted.

"The gunpowder in the emperor's carriage this time came from Lou Zhijing's private artillery workshop. If you say that this matter has nothing to do with the prince, who will believe it!" Xia Jiang said coldly.

When Xie Yu heard about the private artillery workshop, he was stunned.

When the prince wanted to set up a private artillery workshop, he did not agree. He did not expect that it would cause such a big trouble now.

"The prince plans to build a private artillery workshop just to make money and has no intention of rebellion." Xie Yu tried his best to explain.

"It's useless." Xia Jiang shook his head and sighed: "No matter whether the prince has the intention to rebel this time or not, he secretly built a private artillery workshop and has already touched the emperor's bottom line."

Xie Yu asked anxiously: "Is there no room for relaxation?"

Xia Jiang sighed and said: "If we just built a private artillery workshop, I could still suppress it, but this time it exploded so shockingly that it almost killed the emperor. Who dares to protect the prince?"

Xie Yu swayed and felt a little dizzy.

"The prince was framed by someone. It must be Prince Jing. He is the biggest beneficiary of this matter." Xie Yu gritted his teeth.

"I had doubts about Prince Jing at first, but then I thought it was wrong. Prince Jing was almost killed along with the emperor. Besides, Prince Jing didn't have the strength to put gunpowder on the imperial chariot." Xia Jiang shook his head.

Xie Yu said angrily: "That is King Yu. He has been fighting for power with the prince. He is the only one who has the motive and ability to frame the prince."

Xia Jiang said coldly: "Do you have any evidence?"

Xie Yu was speechless for a moment.

"Xia Shouzun, can you help the prince? When the prince ascends the throne in the future, he will never forget the prince's help." Xie Yu pleaded.

Xia Jiang said seriously: "Xuanjing Division is only loyal to the emperor and will never favor any prince."

Xie Yu said unwillingly: "Xia Shouzun, I am begging you, considering our friendship twelve years ago, please help the prince this time!"

Xia Jiang's eyes narrowed, and a dangerous light flashed through his eyes.

"You are threatening me!"

Xie Yu was stunned for a moment and said quickly: "No, it's not a threat, it's just a plea!"

Xia Jiang's eyes were cold and he said: "Don't forget, I was involved in Chi Yan's rebellion back then, but you were the one who carried it out."

Xie Yu said fearfully: "Don't worry, Xia Shouzun, what happened back then will definitely rot in my stomach."

Xia Jiang snorted coldly: "It's good that you know. Let me tell you the truth! Your Majesty has long been dissatisfied with the prince. Even without this assassination incident, it would have been a matter of time before the prince was deposed."

Xie Yu was shocked and said: "The prince has always been submissive, why do you do this!"

"You and I both know how this prince was established in the first place. Your Majesty doesn't like the prince at all. Now that Prince Yu and Prince Jing have matured, His Majesty has two more choices."

Xie Yu's legs went weak and he sat down.

"Xia Shouzun, do you think His Majesty prefers King Yu or King Jing?" Xie Yu asked.

Xia Jiang walked to the window, looked around, and after making sure there was no one around, he said: "People say that King Yu is the most like your Majesty and that he is a wise king. But in my opinion, King Yu imitates your Majesty in everything, but he is not like him in everything."

!

On the contrary, Prince Jing seems not to be favored by His Majesty, but His Majesty has repeatedly given him opportunities to make contributions in recent years."

Xie Yu widened his eyes and said, "Your Majesty has been deliberately training Prince Jing?!"

Xia Jiang nodded silently and said: "Prince Jing's influence in the military is too great. No matter who becomes the emperor in the future, it will be difficult to suppress him. With your majesty's shrewdness, you will not let Prince Jing become bigger for no reason.

I’m afraid Your Majesty has already been paving the way for Prince Jing!”

Xie Yu said anxiously: "Prince Jing has a very good relationship with the then Prince Qi. Once he ascends the throne, will he overturn the case for the Red Flame Army? How should we deal with it?"

"Prince Jing will definitely reverse the case for the Red Flame Army." Xia Jiang affirmed: "As long as he wants to continue the investigation, sooner or later he will find us.

I heard that he suggested to Your Majesty that I should be removed from my position as the head of the Xuanjing Division!"

Xie Yu said anxiously: "I once thought of using Tianquan Villa to assassinate Prince Jing, but unfortunately it failed in the end. Xia Shouzun, do you have any way to deal with Prince Jing?"

"I have also heard about Prince Jing's martial arts. Now that he has gained the Jiangzuo alliance from Mei Changsu, it is absolutely impossible to kill him with the power of Jianghu!" Xia Jiang sighed.

"Then what should we do?" Xie Yu asked anxiously.

Xia Jiang's eyes flashed and he said: "We have no other choice now. We can only rely on Prince Yu to ensure his ascendancy, and then kill Prince Jing with the dignity of an emperor."

Xie Yu was shocked: "You want me to seek refuge with King Yu!?"

?"Do you have any other choice now?" Xia Jiang snorted coldly.

?Xie Yu lowered his head and his eyes flashed.

"But I have lost my military power. Why should I seek refuge with King Yu? He will never tolerate me based on what I have done with King Yu in the past."

"Don't worry! I have a way for you to regain control of the patrol camp! As long as you have the military power, you will be useful to King Yu." Xia Jiang said confidently.

"It turns out that Xia Shouzun has taken refuge with King Yu a long time ago." Xie Yu also realized at this time that Xia Jiang saw that he was here to be a lobbyist.
