Translator: 549690339
When the Crown Prince received the news, it was already midnight.
The spies in the dark had sent back the news from Shangjing. Knowing the seriousness of the matter, Qing ‘er immediately woke him up from his sleep and told him everything in detail.
The Crown Prince’s eyes flashed with a cold light. The matter from back then had already ended.
At this critical moment, a woman had appeared and claimed to be Chun Lan’s descendant. She even had the evidence that she had left behind before she died.
It was simply ridiculous.
He called them all over.
Zhang Ronghua was cultivating when the Flood Dragon Guards found him and passed down an order from His Highness to rush him and Zheng Fugui to the Eastern Palace immediately.
Something big must have happened to find them at this time.
When he arrived at the Eastern Palace, he bumped into Ma Ping ‘an at the entrance. He nodded and greeted him before entering Xuanhe Hall quietly.
In the main hall.
The Crown Prince sat expressionlessly on the main seat. Seeing them arrive, Qing ‘Er told them what had happened.
After listening.
“What power is behind them?” Zhang Ronghua asked after some thought.”
“Behind Heavenly Earth is the Huo family of Marquis Wushuang, a hereditary marquis with immense power. They have great prestige in the army and guard the northern gate for Great Xia. Shen Haowen was a member of the Shen
Family of An Province. He had been a family for decades and his roots were in An Province. The person behind Yin Guoping was the First Prince. After interrogating him, he sent someone to pass the news back. The First Prince instructed him to act according to the rules. Tomorrow morning, he would hand this matter over to the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets and let them present it to the Emperor.”
“What about the family that adopted this woman?”
“I can’t find anything!” Qing ‘Er said again. There’s no such family.”
Zhang Ronghua frowned. On the one hand, he was impressed by the Crown Prince’s intelligence network. The matter had just happened, and he had already investigated it clearly. It seemed that he was not as simple as he seemed. Only these few people could be used. He was afraid that there was a huge force hidden in the dark. His expression did not change.”Your Highness, what do you think?”
“Although I don’t know who did it, the mastermind’s goal is very clear. He wants to mess up the situation and drag everyone into the water to use them to deal with me. It just so happens that I also want to take this opportunity to eliminate some people.”
His gaze fell on Ma Ping ‘an.
“I’ll leave Shen Haowen to you. Pry open his mouth and see if he’s involved in this matter!”
“Yes!” Ma Ping ‘an accepted the order.
He turned around and left.
“I’ll leave Heavenly Earth and this woman to you. Pay attention to the heat of the former and wait for the Huo family to come and apologize! The latter did not hesitate to make her confess the mastermind.”
He left the hall.
He brought a battalion of Flood Dragon Guards and rushed towards the prison of the Ministry of Justice.
After the incident, everyone in Heavenly Earth, including this woman, was imprisoned here by Yin Guoping.
On the way.
“Isn’t Yin Guoping the First Prince’s man?” asked Zheng Fugui. Why did Your Highness let him go?
Zhang Ronghua explained,” On the surface, this matter has nothing to do with him. He was just passing by. After he took them down, everything was done according to the rules. According to the rules, without concrete evidence, he can’t take them down. ‘”‘
“What do I mean by asking you to pay attention to the heat?”
“Political affairs are not about making enemies blindly. The exchanges in all aspects really have nothing to do with them. Make the commotion bigger and wait for the Hunts to come and apologize.”
Zheng Fugui understood now. Heavenly Earth was like a golden chicken that laid eggs. Every day, he carried countless sacks to pick up money. A day’s delay was an astronomical figure. The Crown Prince could afford to delay, but the Huo family could not.
“Why would the mastermind do such a simple plan?’”‘
‘ What you’ve seen is only the surface. This is just the beginning. The disturbance caused by Princess Changxi hasn’t stopped yet. If His Highness makes a big deal out of this, if His Highness loses his composure and doesn’t control the situation well, and touches the people he shouldn’t, once he provokes too many people, the forces behind them will join forces. In this way, the mastermind’s goal will be achieved.”
“F * ck! Wasn’t this guy too sinister? Such a vicious plan, how could the city come up with it? Cousin, you’re smart. You saw through his plan at a glance.”
“Flatterer!”
They arrived at the Ministry of Justice’s prison.
After the incident with Wu Li Zhi, they had strengthened their defenses and mobilized a battalion of soldiers and horses. There were also some martial arts experts guarding the place. When the leader saw them, he was not surprised. After verifying their identities, Zhang Ronghua brought them to prison. The prison guard lowered his posture and greeted him with a smile. Greetings, my lords!
“Where are they?”
“The people from Heavenly Earth are locked up in the second level, and that woman is in the first level.”
“Lead the way.”
They stopped at the innermost cell. The warden opened the door and tactfully retreated. Some news was not something he could hear. The more he knew, the faster he would die.
The members of the Flood Dragon Guards were guarding outside.
Zhang Ronghua stepped in and glanced at her. Her hair was disheveled, and her body was covered in blood. There were traces of whipping. She had already been interrogated.”Who instructed you?” “You Eagle Claws will die a horrible death!”
Bang!
He kicked her over.
He actually dared to speak arrogantly at the brink of death.
He used the Seven Severing Soul Extinguishing Hand and waved it over.
The intense pain was as if someone had pulled her soul out and roasted it on a raging fire. The pain was so intense that it pierced her heart. She arched her body and rolled on the ground like a big lobster. Her screams echoed in the cell.
Even a man made of iron could not withstand it, let alone a weak woman like her.
After persisting for a while, he opened his mouth and begged for mercy. Tell me everything.”
It temporarily relieved the pain in her body.
“Speak!”
“Vermilion Bird Sect’s General Zhu Yuanbing.”
“Be more detailed.”
From her mouth, he found out that she was not a descendant of Chun Lan, including the fact that she had been adopted. Everything was fake to confuse others. Her real identity was that of his adopted daughter.
Including this plan, Zhu Yuanbing was the one who contacted Snake Head and asked them to sell her to Heavenly Earth. Whether Shen Haowen appeared or not, there would be people who would put on the same show. He had spent the money, but he still suffered an undeserved disaster.
When Yin Guoping’s palanquin passed by, someone would let her go and put on a show of being a victim, begging him to make a decision. Other things were not something she could participate in.
On second thought.
Zhang Ronghua understood now. Yin Guoping was the First Prince’s man. When it came to the Crown Prince, whether the news was true or false, he would have to act according to the rules. He would hand the matter over to the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, and the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets would pass it on to Emperor Xia.
Who was this Zhu Yuanbing’s subordinate?
Out of caution.
“Bring her testimony back to the Eastern Palace first. After meeting His Highness, he wants you to make a move before you arrest him.”
Zheng Fugui carried out the order thoroughly and left with some of the Flood Dragon Guards.
“Don’t let her die. Watch carefully.”
He brought the remaining people to the second level. Everyone in Heavenly Earth was captured and imprisoned here.
From her confession, even if they were not involved in this matter, some people had been bribed.
There was one more thing.. He wanted to force them to tell him where Snake Head was and kill all these scumbags!
