Hide And Cultivate In The East Palace, Only To Find The Prince Is A Girl Chapter 19

  Chapter 19 Suicide

this moment.

  Zhang Ronghua thought a lot. What happened tonight flashed through his mind like a fleeting glance.

  The prince said: "Are you surprised?"

"Ok."

  "When Gu got the news, Dou Jianwu felt jealous, afraid that his position would be snatched by you, so he betrayed Gu, and joined forces with the maids to kill Gu with poison.

  Zhang Ronghua understands that in the struggle for imperial power, poisoning the opponent is the most low-level method. If the red line is crossed, once the incident happens and everyone rejects it, the end will be miserable.

  If the prince is poisoned, he will take the initiative and turn passive into active. Even if he does too hard, no one will point him out.

   It's no wonder that he has been able to sit in this position for many years, and the city government and tactics are all excellent.

   "In front of you, Gu is not poisoned, but in front of others, Gu is deeply poisoned. Until this matter is completely resolved, the injuries of Qing'er and Shuang'er are real."

   Get off the bed and walk up to him.

   "The next thing is up to you."

  Leave the bedroom.

  Zhang Ronghua is very complicated, he understands, no wonder the father is always ready to run away, the cruelty of the imperial power struggle is far more tragic than he imagined.

  Bring Feng Jingyao to the side hall and wake him up.

   "Even if you catch me, what can you do? When the army sent by His Majesty arrives, the prince will be finished!"

  Treating him as a punching bag, venting out the depression in his heart to his heart's content, and didn't stop until he was out of breath.

   After some pressing, I got everything I wanted.

  He took out the imperial decree from his arms, opened it, and saw that the imperial decree was empty, not even a single word.

   "Where are the words?"

"This is impossible!"

Feng Jingyao felt like the sky was falling. He was drenched in cold sweat, and his soul was scared. He understood that he was treated as a pawn, and he cried out: "The imperial decree was given to me by Prince Gong, and it was he who gave it to me." Let me do it."

  Zhang Ronghua guessed that the imperial decree was true, but the words and seals on it were written by the people behind the scenes with a special potion. When the potion expires, the handwriting will disappear, just like now.

  Leave the side hall.

   Went to the bedroom, told the prince the result of the interrogation here, and then gave him the imperial edict.

  Take two battalions of Jiaolong Guards and rush towards Prince Gong's Mansion.

  Eastern Palace is still guarded by Zheng Fugui, and Xia Guozhi is also guarding here. He dare not make any changes without the order of the crown prince.

  Zhang Ronghua had a bad feeling in his heart.

  Prince Gong may be more or less ominous, and the facts are as he guessed.

When he brought people to the palace, Prince Gong committed suicide by taking poison, leaving only one body, but some letters were found in his study, which contained evidence of his collusion with the mastermind behind the scenes, including false transmission of imperial edicts, instigating Feng Jing Yao leads troops to besiege the East Palace.

   Return to the East Palace.

  The soldiers and horses of the Fifth City Defense Army have dispersed, and Xia Guozhi has also left.

  People from the palace, the leader is Wei Shang, Emperor Xia's confidant, visiting the crown prince on his behalf.

  Wait for him to leave.

  Zhang Ronghua took out the letter he got, looked at the handwriting on the letter, the prince was expressionless, read the letters one by one, and ordered Qing'er to send these letters to the palace immediately.

   seemed to guess that he was puzzled, and said, "Judging from the handwriting, it was written by the sixth prince."

   "It's too easy to get, these letters are not necessarily true."

"It doesn't matter whether it's true or not. The sixth prince is very powerful, and his natal family is a century-old family. Even if he didn't do it this time, he will do it sooner or later. It's just a matter of time. I don't have any hope to find out who is behind the scenes. But if one prince can be removed, Gu's position will be more stable."

  The sky is already bright, and the rising sun is falling.

  The prince walked to the window and looked at the rising sun in the sky: "Sometimes I can't help myself!"

Until noon.

  The news came from the palace that the sixth prince's natal family was uprooted and all of them were imprisoned in the underworld. His influence in the court was also wiped out, and he was handed over to Dali Temple for interrogation.

   But he was not imprisoned in the Clan Mansion. Emperor Xia ordered that the sixth prince be grounded. Without his order, he was not allowed to go out a step. The confrontation involved was far more terrifying than a frontal fight.

  The palace sent someone to send heavy treasures to detoxify the prince. At the same time, he also promised him to strengthen his own defense and expand the dragon guard to one guard, which can be regarded as making up for his loss.

   There are two thousand people in one guard, which happens to be four songs.

before this.

   Although Jiaolongwei is called "Wei", there is only one song, that is, five hundred people.

  As it expanded, the prince's power grew further.

   Xuanhe Hall.

  The crown prince sat on the main seat, with Qing'er and Shuang'er guarding behind him. With the help of the healing elixir, the injury has recovered.

  Zhang Ronghua, Zheng Fugui and Ma Ping'an stood in the hall.

  In this incident, the three contributed the most.

   Especially Zhang Ronghua, who drove away the plague, arrived in time to subdue Feng Jingyao, and solved a major crisis.

The prince said: "Promote Zhang Ronghua as a captain, in charge of Jiaolongwei, and reward one of the top-grade elixir, ten thousand taels of silver. Ma Ping'an is the deputy captain, and one of the low-grade elixir, two thousand taels of silver. Zheng Fugui As Sima (commander), I will reward you with a low-grade elixir and two thousand taels of silver."

   "Thank you, Your Highness!"

   "Jiaolongwei only has 500 people now, you have a long way to go, expand it to full strength as soon as possible."

  Zhang Ronghua said: "Leave this matter to Vice Captain Ma. Recently, I have encountered some problems in my cultivation. I would like to ask for a period of leave to solve this matter."

  The crown prince glanced at him, but didn't immediately agree. He seemed to have thought of something, and said, "Xueyan is going back to his hometown to worship the ancestors on behalf of the Taifu. You can take Zheng Fugui with you!"

"Ok."

  Leave the East Palace.

  On the street, seeing that it was not the way back to Zhuquefang, Zheng Fugui scratched his head: "Aren't you going back there?"

"go home."

"you are not happy?"

   In front of his cousin, he did not hide anything, and nodded truthfully.

  Zheng Fugui bluntly said: "If you don't like what you do, then quit! Go back and resign now."

boom!

   Reward him with a chestnut.

  Zhang Ronghua rolled his eyes: "It's easy to get on the boat, but hard to get off the boat. We've all been marked as princes. How can it be so simple?"

  Go back to the house.

  Zhang Qin was waiting for him in the lobby, as if he guessed that he was coming back, he drove the maid away, leaving only the three of them.

   "Dad, I'm so tired."

   "Tired fart! You are now a captain, in charge of Jiaolongwei. I have worked all my life, but I haven't climbed to your height. How dare you tell me that you are tired?"

  Zhang Ronghua only complained in front of his close relatives.

   Tell me what happened in the East Palace recently.

   "If he is not ruthless and has no ability at all, the body is already cold, and we have to follow suit. You still have a mansion to live in?"

   patted him on the shoulder.

"You are more powerful now, and you are beginning to come into the sight of the upper class. This is a good thing and a bad thing. Take the neighbors around you. Seeing us are more enthusiastic than before, and they dare not say a hard word. But you have to remember , all these powers are based on the crown prince gaining power, if he loses power, there will be no eggs under the nest."
