Xiao Haoxuan looked at Xia Chenhuan calmly and stopped talking.

Xia Chenhuan was uncertain about the meaning of the man's words, lowered his eyes for a moment, and looked at Xiao Haoxuan sincerely, "I have no evidence, no evidence, or even real information, so I can't say that this matter was instigated by Ruan Ji secretly. This is a big matter, I Don’t dare to identify a person in front of the prince.”

He paused, and his tone became firmer, "But I understand that most of the time what is shown in front of people is not the truth. I understand that this matter will eventually... I am afraid that Ruan Ji will not be found out."

Since Ruan Ji can use Cui Yang to assassinate, use a neutral member of the Cui family.Whether it's because of his coercion, or because the Ruan and Cui families have already formed an alliance, it is impossible for Ruan Ji to leave any possibility of getting angry.

Xiao Haoxuan raised his eyebrows after hearing this, if Xia Chenhuan really tried to bite Ruan Ji in every possible way, he would be suspicious instead.

The man's voice was mixed, "So you excused Emperor Xia, but you didn't identify Ruan Ji. You just gave me a guess and tried to cover it up?"

He looked at Xia Chenhuan coldly, and said word by word, "I can't investigate, I can't move. Then what about Haoyuan's grievances? Where will Dayan's national dignity go?"

Xia Chenhuan froze for a moment, feeling cold all over.Regardless of the weakness he had just woken up and the injury to his right arm, he got out of bed and knelt down, bowing his hand with his left arm which could only move.

"I understand that if Cui Yang really stabbed Haoyuan, then no matter what the conspiracy behind it, Dayan would definitely not be able to swallow his anger." He looked directly at Xiao Haoxuan, "But now the prince is safe and the assassination failed, I want to boldly ask the prince about it."

Xiao Haoxuan was noncommittal and looked at him silently.

Xia Chenhuan swallowed her saliva and forced herself to calm down, "Leaving aside the inside story of the assassination, it is not beneficial for the two countries to turn against each other, and the prince is definitely not willing to do so. Fu Fa. But I will never hurt Dayan's face."

Xia Chenhuan looked into the man's eyes, "I would like to ask the prince to conceal the assassination of the prince, and claim that the messenger assassinated Princess Xuan."

Xiao Haoxuan squinted his eyes in confusion, his eyes darkened by two points, and his fingers tapped the table rhythmically.

Xia Chenhuan tried her best to explain, "Since I was the one who was injured, I might as well push the boat along. Cui Yang is dead, and those who know the inside story can't get caught up in the fire. The truth can only be decided by us. Although I am Princess Xuan, I am also the first son of Xia Guo , we can say... Cui Yang is extreme. He hates Xia Guo bowing his head to Dayan, hates Xia Guo betraying the prince for peace, and hates my shamelessness, so he did the assassination. This will not hurt Dayan Guowei, Xia Guo The country will also lower its profile, try its best to thoroughly investigate and deal with the people involved in the case, and give the prince an explanation."

Xiao Haoxuan kept staring at Xia Chenhuan, he actually suspected that Ruan Ji was involved from the very beginning.

And judging from the current news in Wenli Pavilion, although Cui Daoyun is neutral on the surface, he has no interest in Ruan Ji.

But in the month before Cui Yang went to Dayan, the two attended the same dinner party twice, and also went to the same music hall twice, and the frequency of meeting was not normal.

However, after Cui Yang arrived in Yanjing, he kept himself to the point of being too quiet, which was quite different from his previous cheerful temperament.The task should have been obtained as early as Xia Guo, and it was planned.The poison should have also been brought from Xia Guo.

We just need to wait for the gate of Wenli Pavilion in Xiaguo to confirm the alliance between Ruan Ji and Cui Daoyun and find out the source of the poison.Then we can be sure that this conspiracy is exactly what Xia Chenhuan said.

Naturally, Xiao Haoxuan would not fall out with Xia Guo as Ruan Cui and his wife wished.A man can bend and stretch, and he can bear it temporarily on the surface. Xia Chenhuan's method is a wise move.

but……

Xiao Haoxuan hooked the corners of his mouth, "You are devoted to Dayan, you don't care about Xia Guo's face, and you don't care about your own face."

Xia Chenhuan could hear the suspicion in the man's words, and gritted his teeth. He really didn't have the ability to take care of anything more.This was already the best solution Xia Chenhuan could think of to preserve the alliance between the two countries.

Xiao Haoxuan's tone suddenly turned cold, "You have a good plan, and use Dayan's pressure to crush the Cui family."

Xia Chenhuan suffocated, he wanted to say that he didn't, but he hoped that Yanxia could have both.But he opened his mouth, but no words came out after all.

It is undeniable that if it is true that the matter is an assassination of the princess, then what Cui Yang committed is the crime of implicating the concubine.In addition, to give Yan Guo an explanation, the Cui family must be destroyed, and instantly fell from the clouds into mud.

Cui Yang took poison and was an abandoned son from the very beginning.But Cui Daoyun and Ruan Ji formed an alliance, and it was Yanxia's idea to fight against each other.

Xiao Haoyuan was assassinated and died. Dayan and Xia Guo fought against each other. The two sides were suspicious of each other, and the inside story of the assassination could not be found out.As long as Cui Daoyun talks nonsense and turns the truth upside down, the Cui family can pull himself out.

In addition, if the two countries go to war, Cui Daoyun, as the Minister of the Household Department, will depend on him for the allocation of military salaries and rations, and the emperor will not be able to move him temporarily.

Unexpectedly, things did not go according to their plan, and the Cui family was in jeopardy.

The State of Xia is different from Dayan. Its predecessor was the former Xia Dynasty, and the royal family was actually in the same line, with the surname Xia.

In the previous summer, the nine-rank Zhongzheng system was implemented, that is, the system of elevating officials.The right to select officials is in the hands of aristocratic families, and most celebrities come from this class.The families that have led to these generations of high-ranking officials and hereditary titles have special superior positions in politics, economy, and society, forming a powerful family.

After the death of the former Xia Dynasty, the Xia Dynasty was established with the support of the powerful and noble families.

In the early days of its establishment, the royal family of the Xia clan adopted a strategy of calming down to stabilize the situation.As a result, the imperial power declined, and the power of the court was mainly controlled by the aristocratic family.Due to the emphasis on military power on the outside and on the inside, rebellions such as Li Jun's Rebellion, Su Wei's Rebellion and Ma Ting's dictatorship occurred successively.

Over the past decade or so, the Ruan family has grown stronger, and Ruan Ji has quelled domestic rebellions and resisted foreign enemies.The situation in Xia Kingdom reached a balance point and calmed down.

But the Ruan family was in power, Ruan Ji was ambitious, and the court was once again in turmoil.It's not that Emperor Xia didn't know that he vigorously promoted the imperial examination system, making the examination system and the official system parallel.It is hoped that the aristocratic families, the nobles of the Xia Kingdom and the high-ranking officials of the Han clan will stand on one side to achieve national stability.

But at this stage, the power of the five aristocratic families is still the most prosperous.The Ruan family of Boling, the Yin family of Chenjun, the Cui family of Qinghe, the Li family of Longxi, and the Lu family of Zhaojun.

They originally check and balance each other, but if the Cui family and the Ruan family unite, the balance will no longer be maintained.

The Ruan family cannot be moved for the time being, but Xia Chenhuan really hopes to take the opportunity to destroy the Cui family.

Xiao Haoxuan and Xia Chenhuan actually thought of this point.

He didn't care if Emperor Xia's rights were left behind.For him, perhaps it would be better if there were intricate contradictions within the Xia Kingdom's ruling class, so that they could constrain each other and be powerless and unwilling to covet Dayan.

But Xiao Haoxuan didn't like being used by others, he stared at Xia Chenhuan with dark eyes, his tone was not serious but made the other party feel cold to the bone instantly, "Could it be, this is really a play you made, right? Just plan it?"

If he didn't notice Ruan Cui's joint assassination, did Xia Chenhuan really not know about it?Or Cui Yang betrayed the Cui family at all, and is really a member of Emperor Xia?

Xiao Haoxuan has analyzed all possibilities, and this one is very small.But Xiao Haoxuan's identity and responsibilities determined that he must be suspicious.

Xia Chenhuan stared at Xiao Haoxuan in horror, his face turned pale, "No, it's not! I..."

Xia Chenhuan was eager to explain, but found that he had finished all he could say, and it was just his own guess, without any real evidence, how could he convince Xiao Haoxuan?

Xia Chenhuan could only look at the indifferent man, his blue eyes were extremely open, "I didn't notice this conspiracy at all, otherwise... I would never put Haoyuan in danger."

Xiao Haoxuan looked into Xia Chenhuan's eyes with sincerity and sincerity.

Recalling Xia Chenhuan's behavior in the past few months, Xiao Haoxuan thought, if this person is not what he appears to be, then he is really good at acting, and even he has been fooled.

Xiao Haoxuan didn't say a word, got up and stepped in front of Xia Chenhuan.Under the apprehensive gaze of the other party, he picked him up horizontally, put him back on the bed, and covered him with a quilt.

Xia Chenhuan froze for a moment, and leaned on the bed in a daze, staring blankly at the man who was very close to her.

Xiao Haoxuan didn't change his face, and his tone was calm, "I will declare to the outside world according to your statement that Cui Yang assassinated Princess Xuan. I will take care of the rest, and you can calm down and heal your wounds."

Xia Chenhuan smiled brightly, unable to hide his joy, did King Xuan believe him?

"Thank you, my lord!" After a pause, he finally had his first gentle smile, "Thank you, my lord, for your concern."

Xiao Haoxuan raised his eyes and was about to open his mouth when Lianqiu just happened to report outside the door, "I want to report to the lord and concubine, the medicine has been decocted."

"Come in."

Lianqiu took the plate of food and walked to a place two steps away from the bed and stopped, looking at the princess in embarrassment, and then at the prince.

The princess couldn't move her right hand, and the prince sat by the bed again.She wanted to give medicine, but it was difficult to go forward.

Xia Chenhuan raised his left hand, and just about to take the medicine bowl by himself, Xiao Haoxuan spoke first, "Give me the medicine."

Lianqiu was overjoyed, and hurriedly presented the medicine to the prince.

Xiao Haoxuan took the medicine bowl, the bowl was not considered hot, it should have been cold.He took a sip himself, making sure it was only warm and palatable.

The man put his left hand through Xia Chenhuan's waist who was at a loss, letting someone lean on his shoulder, and lifted the bowl to his mouth with his right hand.

"Drink."

Xia Chenhuan's pale face was faintly reddened by her intimate care.He blinked and drank the medicine in one go, without even noticing the pain.

Xiao Haoxuan showed no expression. He finished feeding the medicine at Xia Chenhuan's speed, put the empty bowl on the food plate, and got up to leave.

Xia Chenhuan looked at the man's back and wanted to say something, "I'm sorry for making Haoyuan and Haojun go through such a thing."

Xiao Haoxuan stopped in his tracks, turned around, "Those who have done wrong things need to apologize, do you want to admit what you have done?"

Xia Chenhuan suffocated, afraid that he would become suspicious again, so he shook his head quickly.

Xiao Haoxuan looked erratic, turned his head and left, "Then don't apologize."

Xia Chenhuan was in a daze, looking at the closed door and couldn't recover for a long time.

Xiao Haoxuan walked to the outer hall of Jishi Hall, "Shadow Two."

A black shadow flew down from the beam and knelt down, bowing his head and obeying orders.

"Did the princess see who the assassin was?"

Ying Er didn't know why the lord asked about the incident again, the lord never listened to and checked the things he had reported in the past.

Shadow guards have been trained since childhood, and they will reflect the pictures they have seen in their minds.He closed his eyes and thought about it carefully for a moment, then said with certainty, "No. The assassin is taller than the princess, and the princess looked down, all the way to the fourth prince. When the incident happened suddenly, the princess turned around to protect the fourth prince, and did not see Assassin's face."

After hearing this, Xiao Haoxuan waved his hand, and the shadow guard disappeared instantly.

The corner of the man's mouth curled up slightly, but he was treating the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

Xia Chenhuan didn't recognize Cui Yang, but protected Haoyuan for self-protection.He...does have a sincere heart.

Xiao Haoxuan turned his head and told Song Zheng who was beside him, "Immediately send a letter to Bai Chen, saying that I have something important to discuss, and ask him to return to Beijing quickly."

On the surface, Ruan Ji didn't move for the time being, but it didn't mean he would give up.The people of the Xiao family couldn't swallow this kind of anger.

"Yes!" Song Zheng took the order.

Xiao Haoxuan's expression froze, his eyes became colder, he stepped out, and got on his horse.

"Go to the Xia Guo Envoy's Mansion!"

[The author has something to say: Plot preview:

How will Xiao Haoxuan show his domineering side in the messenger's mansion?

How did he and Bai Chen plan to deal with Ruan Ji?

Xiao Haoxuan finally let go and removed Bizitang, but Xia Chenhuan was terrified.

He cannot bear children.He is a stand-in. On the day the truth comes out, will that child survive?Even if he survived, he would suffer from his birth just like him.

Xia Chenhuan even refused for the first time, confronting Xiao Haoxuan.
