Tyrant Whitewashing Plan [Transmigration Book]

This is not what the Second Prince wants to hear.

What he wanted to hear was that Xiao Jining and the Seventh Prince would testify against each other in order to clear themselves of the suspicion of poisoning the late emperor.

And isn't Jing Yuan one of his people?How dare he?

The second prince looked at Jing Yuan in disbelief: "You..."

The officials under the dragon chair were also dumbfounded when they heard this, and couldn't help whispering.

The second prince was furious when he saw this, he wanted to ask Jing Yuan how dare he say such a thing, isn't he afraid that he won't give him the antidote?It's just that as soon as the second prince's words came to his throat, he remembered that this was something that only the emperor could know. Even if he wanted to threaten Jing Yuan, he couldn't tell the secret of the Jing family at such a moment.

So the second prince could only sternly say: "Jingyuan, you are presumptuous! How dare you slander me!"

Jing Yuan curled his lips into a cold smile, raised his chin and looked at the second prince and said, "If I have no evidence, how dare I say such a thing so easily? Before my death, the late Emperor vaguely sensed that something was wrong, and specially asked my minister to protect him." The Great Xiao Jiangshan is also thanks to the emperor's appointment of the humble minister as a general of hussars, so that the humble minister can search for evidence more freely in the palace."

Old General Ji raised his eyebrows when he heard the words: "No wonder General Jingyuan was the late Emperor's Minister of Tuogu at such a young age."

Emperor Xiao's trust in the Jing family was obvious to all officials. In this way, it makes sense why Jing Yuan was able to become Minister Tuogu at such a young age.

However, there are other ministers in the court who support the second prince. They stood up and said, "Since you have evidence, General Jing, please show it."

Jing Yuan lowered his eyes and smiled, "Of course there is evidence."

After saying this, Jing Yuan turned around and looked at the gate of the Golden Dragon Palace behind him. He saw Tan Chuangen, the head of the imperial hospital, and a group of imperial physicians, leading another imperial physician Jiang to the main hall, knelt down and said: It proves that the late Emperor was indeed poisoned to death, and the poison was poisoned by the Second Prince and Concubine Gao together."

Afterwards, Tan Chuangen explained clearly the ins and outs of how Imperial Physician Jiang stole medicinal materials from the Imperial Hospital over the past year to make poisonous substances to Concubine Gao and the Second Prince, and then let them wait for the opportunity to put it into Emperor Xiao's diet little by little. .

Tan Chuangen said: "The reason why Imperial Physician Jiang is willing to work so hard for the second prince is not because his daughter entered the emperor's backyard early and gave birth to the emperor's first prince."

The second prince really dotes on the daughter of the Imperial Physician Jiang, otherwise she would not have allowed her to give birth to a prince.Although the Second Prince relied on his relatives for his position, he was very afraid of them. Not only did he not want Empress Xu to give birth to a prince, but he also couldn't wait to deal with Xu Junhui first after he ascended the throne.

And Xiao Jining agreed to Tan Qingxuan in private, and when Ruan Jiaren turns [-] two years later, he will marry her first and then accept her, so Tan Chuangen has not shown publicly that he supports Xiao Jining so far Yes, and because he has always been clean and upright, and he is still the head of the imperial hospital, all the officials couldn't figure out why he wanted to frame the new emperor. The only possibility for him to say this is that the first emperor did indeed do these things.

"You're lying! You're slandering me!" The second prince got up from the dragon chair and said angrily, "Come on—! Come on! Arrest Jingyuan and Tan Chuangen!"

However, none of the imperial guards dared to move—Xu Junhui was dead, and the 20 imperial guards under his command still didn't know where to go, so they could only temporarily obey the orders of the hussar general Jing Yuan who could command the imperial guards.

The second prince originally thought that Xu Junhui, this relative, was too powerful to be trusted, and that the Jing family, which could only survive by relying on the emperor, was the best to control, but it wasn't until this moment that the second prince realized that his sharpest sword had been broken by his own hands .

And all of this was guided by Xiao Mo and Jing Yuan.

It was Xiao Mo who told him that the Xu family is not easy to control, it is better to get rid of Xu Junhui first, and hand over the military power of the imperial army to the Jing family, as long as he has the antidote in his hand, the Jing family must listen to him.

It was Jingyuan who told him that he must summon all the officials today and push the matter of poisoning the former emperor to the seventh and ninth princes... Yes, Jingyuan wants the antidote, as long as the antidote is The emperor can have it, he is the companion of the Ninth Prince, as long as he puts the Ninth Prince on the throne, he can also get the antidote.

The second prince looked at Jing Yuan's indifferent eyes, staggered a few steps with the smile on his lips that seemed to be mocking him, suddenly pulled out the sword of a guard beside him, and slashed at Xiao Mo.

Although Xiao Mo is an eunuch, he is the governor of the East Factory, and his kung fu is not low at all. Even the second prince who agrees to know martial arts can't get close to him. All the officials watched the new emperor chasing an eunuch with a messy hair crown. Chasing and hacking all over the place is a sigh.

The second prince looked at the crowd facing upwards, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, he shouted angrily and stabbed towards Jingyuan.

Xiao Jining couldn't help opening his eyes wide when he saw this scene—Jing Yuan beheaded three emperors in a row, and the first emperor he killed was the second prince.

When the second prince was chasing Xiao Mo just now, he didn't look at them, he always looked at Jing Yuan.

In other words, since Jing Yuan said that the person who poisoned him was the second prince, he has been looking at Jing Yuan, Jing Yue, and Xiao Mo.

So he saw, before the second prince went crazy, Jingyue and Xiao Mo looked at each other and smiled; When Yuan rushed forward, Jing Yuan slowly raised his hanging right hand, holding the hilt of the sword at his waist.

Perhaps Jing Yuan killed the second prince today.

Under such circumstances, Jingyuan's killing of the second prince would not arouse the discussion of the officials at all, because afterwards these officials cared more about who the next new emperor would be.

But what Xiao Jining didn't expect was that at such a critical juncture, Jing Yuan didn't look at the second prince, but turned to look at him.

Those eyes were deep and dark, so dark that they couldn't see a ray of light, but Xiao Jining seemed to see a trace of hesitation and hesitation in them, such emotions that would not be seen by the owner of these eyes at all. .

So the moment their eyes met, Xiao Jining's lips moved, but he didn't speak - he didn't know what to say, at this moment Xiao Jining's heart was in a mess, maybe he should remind Jing Yuan to be careful, but Jing Yuan The person Yuan Xia was going to kill at the moment was also his brother who was related by blood.

Even if they didn't have any feelings, Xiao Jining really didn't know how he would continue to face Jing Yuan if he watched Jing Yuan kill his imperial brother in front of his own eyes.

Xiao Jining had never thought about this question before, because he didn't dare to think about it, and he didn't want to think about it—Jing Yuan would kill three emperors in a row, so what about the other princes who died?Is their death related to Kyung Won?No matter whether Xiao Ji would rather admit it or not, he couldn't deny that in this world, apart from the Eighth Prince and Seventh Prince, only Jing Yuan was his closest person.

Even if he knew that Jing Yuan might kill his imperial brother or even him in the future, he still couldn't help wishing that time would always stay in the carefree moment when they were children in the study.

This in the end is why?

Xiao Jining didn't know.

The second prince's sword came quickly, and he and Jing Yuan only looked at each other for a moment, but in such a short moment, countless complex and short thoughts flashed through Xiao Jining's mind.

Those thoughts that were constantly cutting and chaotic suddenly returned to calm when the crisp sound of the second prince's sword colliding with the floor tiles reached his ears.

The second prince's sword fell to the ground, and Jing Yuan's sword was against the second prince's throat.

There was a thin line of blood on his throat, and a small amount of blood was oozing out, but the wound was not deep.

The whole court was silent.

Jing Yuan put the sword back into the scabbard, lowered his head and said to the palace people in the Golden Dragon Palace in a hoarse voice: "The emperor is tired, help him back to rest."

The second prince was finally sent back to the dormitory with the help of Xiao Mo's scouts.

If the emperor is not here, the morning court will naturally end.

The person who poisoned the first emperor is undoubtedly the new emperor, but the first emperor has passed away, and the new emperor is the current emperor of Da Xiao. Even if he has lost popular support by chasing his courtiers today, as long as he does not die, he will still be the emperor, unless He abdicated himself.

So after the next dynasty, some officials sighed why Jing Yuan didn't just kill the new emperor directly?

Such a new emperor will only lead Great Xiao to perish, and now they can only wait for the new emperor to abdicate voluntarily, or which prince can "call" the new emperor to abdicate.

After the morning court ended, Xiao Jining was still a little dazed.

He didn't understand why Jing Yuan didn't kill the second prince just now, but today is the best time to kill the second prince.

Xiao Jining couldn't help asking Xiao Dan: "Little Dan, why didn't Jing Yuan—"

"Don't ask, even if I ask, I don't know." Xiaodan replied quickly, "Your second brother and your eighth brother have passed through death, and maybe they will live a long life in the future."

In other words, today is indeed the day when the second prince will die, but Jing Yuan did not kill him.

"Why..." Xiao Jining said in a daze.

"I told you a long time ago that the direction of the plot has changed." Xiaodan couldn't figure it out either. It was also very anxious when Xiao Jining was called to the Golden Dragon Palace. Now that Xiao Jining is fine, it joked, "Follow this trend." I won't be surprised if you are enthroned."

Xiao Jining ignored Xiaodan's joke, he was busy in a daze after he went down to the court, Jing Yuan didn't come to look for him, and now he was gone, so he arrested a palace official and asked: "Did you see General Jing go back to the court?" Where is it?"

"Go back to your lord, has General Jing gone home?" The palace servants were also very frightened by what happened in the Golden Dragon Palace today, so they answered Xiao Jining cautiously, "Didn't the grown-ups all go home when they went to court?"

They are not eunuchs, men cannot stay in the palace forever.

Hearing this, Xiao Jining immediately chased after the palace gate. Seeing Xiao Jining running fast, the Seventh Prince asked him: "Seventh Brother, are you going back to Shun Palace by walking so fast? Let's go have lunch together?"

The Seventh Prince also has a lot to say to Xiao Jining, now that the Second Prince will abdicate sooner or later, they have to think about who the next new emperor will be.

It's just that Xiao Jining didn't stop after hearing what the Seventh Prince said, and answered him from a distance: "Brother Seventh Prince, you can eat at my house, I have something else to do!"

It can also be considered that although Xiao Jining has been salty these years, his physical fitness is not bad, and he caught up with Jing Yuan when he just left the palace.

Xiao Jining saw Jing Yuan's carriage from a distance and started to shout: "General Jing! General Jing——!"

It's just that he didn't see the carriage stop after he yelled several times in a row. Xiao Jining didn't believe that the coachman didn't hear him. The only reason was that Jingyuan didn't let the carriage stop. He had seen how arrogant the coachman of Major General Zhen Guo's mansion was. .

Xiao Jining was anxious and helpless, for some reason, he remembered Jing Yuan's request for him to call him "Brother Jing Yuan" again when he begged Jing Yuan.

So Xiao Jining had no choice but to be a dead horse as a living horse doctor, and shouted loudly after trying: "Brother Jingyuan——!"
