Qianqianjie, kidnap a reborn prince back to the modern era

Kou Boran was too lazy to listen to the quarrel between the two. He just wanted to understand the lawsuit in Prince Sheng's Mansion.

"Li Wei, do you know who arranged the cup of poisoned wine at the wedding in Prince Sheng's mansion?"

Time is running out. In one day, he will lose the black hat on his head.

This is evidence that has been delivered to their doorstep. Regardless of whether there is solid evidence or not, now that there is a witness, they can give an explanation.

"Master, I was in charge of guest services for the wedding at Prince Sheng's mansion. During the wedding banquet, the guards around His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked me for wine. As for what he did, I don't know."

"You were the one who poisoned that glass of wine?"

"No, I don't have any poison. I only provided a pot of wine for the prince's personal guard. However, the pot was a mandarin duck pot. This was a task assigned to me by the prince's housekeeper in advance. I just followed the task."

"You're lying. I didn't assign you any tasks for the Sheng Palace wedding."

The housekeeper's face turned pale. What the hell is Li Wei doing?

Why create something out of nothing?

"My Lord, I dare not lie. Since you have admitted that you are a spy, what else do I have to hide?

I just didn't expect that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would kidnap my wife and children in order to make me shut up.

Their lives are in danger now, and I don't care about my life anymore, so let's all fight to the death."

Li Wei slammed his head heavily on the ground, looking desperate.

Only he himself knew that two nights ago, a servant who worked with him in Prince Sheng's Mansion, named Zhang Zheng, asked him to drink. After one glass, he felt so upset that he fell under the table.

Zhang Zheng took out a pair of emerald earrings, with dried blood stains on the tips of the earrings. His heart couldn't help but sink.

No one knew that he had already started a family five years ago and had a three-year-old son.

Two months ago, his daughter-in-law came from his hometown with their son to look for him. He was temporarily placed in an ordinary house outside the city, but for some reason, he was found.

"Who are you? What do you want me to do?"

He was very frightened, thinking that his identity must have been known to someone, which led to this disaster and also brought harm to his family.

"You don't need to know who I belong to. Your life and the lives of your wife and son are all in my hands. I have to follow my instructions. Do you understand?"

According to Zhang Zheng's request, he took the initiative to find the steward of the Prince's Mansion and started an argument in the street, with the purpose of creating evidence for the affairs of Prince Sheng's Mansion.

However, he was originally a spy sent from the Prince's Mansion to Prince Sheng's Mansion. He was exposed sooner or later, so it was not his fault.

Zhang Zheng promised to send his wife and children back home safely and give them a considerable sum of money so that they would have no worries about food and clothing.

If he could get out of the government office alive, he would be guaranteed safe departure from Kyoto.

......

Prince Sheng's Palace.

Cangyu sat in the study, discussing matters with several deputy generals.

"The evidence of the Crown Prince's murder of you will surely be established. Our silence and inaction will lead Prince Ning to take action again and point the evidence to the Crown Prince. He is trying his best to bring down the Crown Prince."

Gu Feng mobilized the secret guard camp to keep a close eye on the movements in the palace, the Prince's Mansion, and Prince Ning's Mansion, and he was fully aware of Zhang Zheng's private threat to Li Wei.

"Will Your Majesty believe the testimony of a servant alone?"

Li Hu thinks this is too optimistic.

Gu Feng felt that this confession, or the trap that Prince Ning had set for the Crown Prince, was not fully filled, and did not confirm the incidents of poisoning wine and arson in Prince Sheng's mansion.

In particular, they knew very well who had set the fire in the bridal chamber, and that those who had been burned to death were the assassins who had been captured alive in the dungeon of Prince Sheng's mansion.

"Your Majesty only wants an excuse and will not pursue actual evidence. He has long had the idea of ​​deposing the crown prince, but he is troubled by the power of Xibohou Mansion."

Cang Yu said quietly.

"The Xibohou Mansion has lost its power. Although Xia Feng is vicious, he was not trained by the old Xibohou as an heir. His character and scheming are far inferior to Xia Jun. After his death, the Xibohou Mansion is almost dead in name only."

"Yes, the power of the Gyeonggi Defense Camp has collapsed. The generals who originally followed them have been eliminated several times. The remaining soldiers only care about their future and rewards and are no longer under their control."

Li Hu and his three companions have followed Cangyu for three years, and have developed a life-and-death relationship with him on the battlefield. They have also accompanied him in the battles for the Capital Defense Camp. Now each of them leads a battalion, and they have full control over the 20,000 troops in each battalion.

"Given the current situation, His Majesty wants to take this opportunity to abolish the crown prince and make a new choice. The one he has always favored is Ning Wang Cangmin."

Cangyu's eyes were deep and his tone was calm and firm.

"We are using ourselves as bait this time. Aren't we just making things easier for King Ning?"

Gu Feng was somewhat unwilling.

"Prince Ning poisoned me and framed the prince for the crime, aiming to destroy him all at once.

He didn't expect that I would still be alive after taking such a poisonous drug.

At present, the result is simply the dethronement of the crown prince, which is already a setback for him.

Besides, the prince's life is safe this time. Once he wakes up, he will easily realize who is plotting against him. Next, we can just sit back and watch the fight, and add fuel to the flames at the right time."

There was a hint of sneer on Cangyu's lips.

If he had not been reborn, he would have known that the spies in Prince Sheng's Mansion would take such action and would have prepared the Qingning Pill in advance. It would have been difficult for the "fake Prince Sheng" to withstand this poison.

However, this also confirmed that Prince Xiling was honest with him.

After experiencing this, they can truly trust each other with their lives.

In his previous life, he was tortured by this poison for a day and night and was rescued by Yun Qianyou.

Although the poison was removed at that time, his internal organs, bones and meridians had been damaged, and his internal energy stagnated and lost. In just six years, he still died.

"Tell the Xibohou Mansion spies in the palace that the incident in Shengwang Mansion was the work of Prince Ning."

"Yes! I will make sure they fight each other."

Gu Feng answered happily.

"If the protection camp creates more fights, you guys will appear powerless. Those who are in the open need to befriend His Majesty's confidant, the Third Battalion Captain Hu Quan, to prevent His Majesty from using us to cut off the arm of the Xibo Marquisate and then become afraid of us in turn."

"Okay, I understand."

"We have already replaced nearly 10,000 soldiers from the million-strong army on the western front. They have gradually arrived in villages and towns near Kyoto, where they are engaged in business and other activities among the people. They can be called upon at any time."

"Okay, Li Hu will be responsible for settling these people and setting up several teams, and they will all maintain a single line of contact with you."

"We have occupied 40% of Dongcang's one million troops. Everyone is waiting for His Highness to make a plan before taking action. The brothers are holding back their energy."

"We have not yet established a foothold in the court. We may not be able to accomplish anything relying solely on the army. Everyone needs to be patient."

Cangyu frowned deeply.

His mother died early, and he had no one to rely on in the palace. He was not favored among the princes. He left the imperial city three years ago. Although he had military merits, he was still weak in the court, and he still needed to plan carefully.

Two days later, just as Prince Sheng had guessed, His Majesty looked at the confessions submitted by Yun Xuanzhi and others, and denounced the prince for being unjust and murdering his brothers in court. However, in consideration of Prince Sheng's timely treatment and recovery, he stripped Prince Cangxun of his title and demoted him to Prince Shen, intending to require him to be cautious in his actions.

The Queen cried and complained, which displeased His Majesty, who confined her to Fengming Palace. Her seal of authority over the harem was also confiscated, and the Emperor asked Eunuch Wang to send her to Concubine Song's Fengze Palace.
