Save the Bachelor of Heaven

   Chapter 2738 2740 [Prince assassinated]

"Grandma, I heard that you haven't been sleeping very well recently. This is an incense made from a prescription I found from the folks. It has the effect of calming the nerves and helping sleep. I have tried it myself and it is very effective, so I am here to dedicate it to my wife. Grandma." Xiang Nan smiled and carried a box of incense.

  The empress dowager is the grandmother of the emperor Li Wei, and she is the highest and most authoritative figure in the harem of the rich dynasty.

Moreover, she is old-fashioned and old-fashioned. She has experienced decades of palace fighting, and her eyelashes are empty. She can take care of people clearly and handle things properly when talking and laughing. It can be said that she is a harem. Dinghaishenzhen.

  Xiang Nan knew how powerful she was, and also knew that she liked Li Chengyin, and he valued this great-grandson very much.

   Li Chengyin was able to ascend to the position of prince, all with the support of the Empress Dowager.

  For example, Chai Mu, the most important counselor beside Li Chengyin, seems to be arranged for him by Princess Mingyuan, but in fact he cannot do without the support of the Empress Dowager. After all, Princess Mingyuan and the Empress Dowager are in the same line.

  For example, the jade pendant left to him by Li Chengyin's biological mother, Gu Shufei, half was given to him by Princess Mingyuan, and the other half was already owned by Li Chengyin. And the original half jade pendant was given to him by the Empress Dowager.

  So if he reciprocates, Xiang Nan will naturally do his best to please her. For example, this box of incense is his own prescription, which guarantees a very good sleeping effect.

   "Okay, okay, Xiao Wu, you have a heart. Among so many grandchildren, you are the most filial." The Empress Dowager laughed.

   "I'm not as capable as the elder brother, the second brother, the third brother, and the fourth brother. This is the only filial piety I can show." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

   "Your elder brother has been gone for ten days, and I don't know how he is now." The Empress Dowager said again, "Oh, this child is really worrying."

   "I also miss my elder brother very much. I hope he is safe and will return soon." Xiang Nan nodded.

  …

At this moment, I saw Yingniang, the Empress Dowager's maid, rushing in, "Reporting to the Empress Dowager, something is wrong, the Anhu Mansion in the Western Territory is 800 miles away, and the prince was assassinated near Tiangen Mountain. "

  Hearing what she said, the Empress Dowager was shocked.

   "What?! Then big brother, big brother, is he okay?" Xiang Nan shook his hands even more excitedly, the teacup fell to the ground with a slap, and then asked Yingniang loudly.

   "The prince, the prince is dead." Yingniang replied.

  Xiang Nan's face changed several times when he heard it, turning pale for a moment, turning red for a moment, and suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and then yelled, "Brother~"

   "Yin'er~Please call the imperial physician~" Seeing that he was so excited to vomit blood when he first heard the bad news, the brotherhood was evident. Seeing this, the Empress Dowager hurriedly ordered people to spread the word of the imperial physician.

  Shouren Palace suddenly panicked.

   "Grandma, I'm fine~" Xiang Nan waved his hand, and then came to Yingniang, "Yingniang, what you just said is true?!"

   "Indeed." Ying Niang nodded.

   "Who is so rebellious that he dares to attack Prince Feng Chao?" Xiang Nan shouted.

   "I heard that people from Danchi succeeded." Yingniang said again.

   "Dan Chi?!" Xiang Nan gritted his teeth, and then bowed deeply to the Empress Dowager, "Grandma, the great-grandson is rushing to the Tai Chi Hall to discuss matters, so I will take my leave first."

   "Don't worry, wait for the imperial doctor to come and see your condition." The Empress Dowager asked to stay.

  Xiang Nan waved his hand, then left Shouren Palace and rushed to Taiji Hall.

  …

   Came to the Tai Chi Hall, the emperor Li Yu was furious and sat on the throne.

  The books and porcelain on the ground were obviously thrown away by him just now in agitation.

   "My child pays homage to Father~" Xiang Nan hurriedly stepped forward and kowtowed, "Brother Huang, Brother Huang..."

   Li Xi let out a long sigh.

  He sent Li Chengji to work in the Anhu Mansion in the Western Territory, seemingly to depose him, but in fact he just wanted him to get rid of the control of the powerful and calm down.

   When the right time comes, I will transfer him back to Shangjing.

   After all, Li Chengji has been the prince for more than ten years, and has always been cultivated as the prince. To this end, Li Yu also put in a lot of hard work.

   Moreover, he has an upright personality, brave and humble, and is considered harmonious to his brothers. In particular, there is no big power behind him, and there will be no worries about foreign relatives interfering with power and treacherous ministers taking power.

   Therefore, such a crown prince is actually very rare, and Li Xi is still willing to give him a chance.

   Never expected that he would be assassinated and left dead in the desert. How could he not be heartbroken when his more than ten years of hard work were ruined.

   "My Father's Day~" Xiang Nan persuaded.

  At this time, the Prime Minister Gao Ming, the second prince Li Chengye, the third prince Li Chengwen, and the fourth prince Li Chengyuan also arrived.

  Xiang Nan noticed that Li Chengye had a look of sadness on his face, as if he was also deeply saddened by the prince's assassination.

  Can't help secretly admiring his scheming. Obviously the prince was killed by him, but he can still put on such a sad state, he is really a good actor.

  As for Li Chengwen and Li Chengyuan, although their faces were sad, there was still an unconcealable joy in their eyes.

   Obviously, they thought that the death of the prince would give them a chance to be in power.

   It can also be seen that their scheming in the city government is far from the fire, which is happily too early.

  …

  The queen also heard the news, and immediately asked Xiang Nan to discuss.

   "Yin'er, this is a good opportunity for you to be in the top position, you must seize it." Zhang Meiniang happily said to Xiang Nan.

   "The queen mother means..." Xiang Nan pretended not to understand.

"This time the crown prince was assassinated, the emperor was furious, and he is about to attack Dan Chi. This is a good opportunity for you to make meritorious service." Zhang Meiniang explained, "My mother will strongly recommend you to lead the army to the western region with your uncle. You can build military exploits."

  Xiang Nan couldn't help feeling dizzy when he heard it.

  If he had the intention to go to the western region, he would have gone with the prince at the beginning, why wait until now.

  He was trying to avoid direct conflict with Qu Xiaofeng. If he led his army to the western region to attack Dan Chi this time, it would obviously repeat the tragedy in the play.

   It's just that it's not appropriate for him to refuse directly.

  Because this will leave people with the impression of fear of war, fear of war, and fear of war.

  The reason why Li Chengwen and Li Chengyuan were eliminated early in the competition for the crown prince was because of their cowardly character and mediocre talents, so they were not liked by the Holy One.

  Therefore, Xiang Nan had to agree to go, and he had to be very active, so that Zhang Meiniang and the emperor Li Wei could be satisfied.

   After arriving in the western region, as long as he doesn't deceive Qu Xiaofeng's feelings, doesn't use her to find King Tiedar's tent, and doesn't cut off Tiedar's head himself, then it should be fine.

   After all, it is normal for the two countries to be at war, and it is normal for each other to have casualties. The reason why Qu Xiaofeng hates Li Chengyin is also because he hates him for using him to kill his grandfather, cousin, and friends.

  Another thing is that in order to win Li Chengyin and Qu Xiaofeng together, Gao Xian actually forced Qu Xiaofeng's mother to death and Qu Xiaofeng's father crazy.

   This matter must be properly handled, and you can't let this pig teammate destroy your good deeds.
