Chapter 172: Trouble (Part 2)
At this night, so water and caused the flowers to bloom even in the cold winds of winter Naturally there were plans that fell through and currently there were people ere in a thundering rage
In the residence of Prince Zhou and Prince Li, it was such a situation
In this evening, soht it was the servants and called theot up to open the doors and sao ice cold corpses directly hitting his face No one kne the two corpses came into the residence of Prince Zhou Prince Zhou flew into a rage and punished all the guards that were on night duty harshly before looking through carefully for traitors but at the end it was all without success
The two corpses were also identified as the assassins as sent off today to kill Shen Miao
Prince Zhou's heart was restless and on the very night called Prince Jing over so that the two brothers could research the matter carefully
As for Prince Li's end, it was even worst Someone just threo bodies directly into the residence frouards in the residence of Prince Li The guards went out to chase but could not even find the shadows of anyone At the end the found out that the two corpses were the assassins that were sent to kill Shen Miao Prince Li was very troubled and restless of it Obviously his assassins were killed and his route was broken and naturally that was his enehly skilled that the entire residence of Prince Li's guards could not even catch one person, Prince Li was extremely dissatisfied
At the other end, the two brothers, Prince Zhou and Prince Jing, were in the middle of a discussion
Prince Zhou asked, “Who do you think did it?”
Prince Jing muttered, “Perhaps it is Prince Li”
“I too think so” Prince Zhou nodded his head, “Perhaps he is taking the opportunity to threaten hts as me”
“However Prince Li always has an amicable appearance and would not do such ashook his head, “It ht also be from the Crown Prince's hands”
“The Crown Prince?” Price Zhou paused before nodding his head, “These years the Crown Prince was proclaimed sick but everyone knew that it was just a cover-up Neither one of us had seen his ht between me and Prince Li, the Crown Prince can enjoy the benefits of a fisherht”
“Correct” Prince Jing sighed, “You better not forget there is another person, Number Nine”
“Forget about Number Nine” Prince Zhou waved his hand without a care for it, “Even if Nuuts to do it as he does not ain connections To be able to create trouble in the residence of Prince Zhou, one's subordinates have to be experts”
“One does not knohy but one always feel that Nu said, “You should not underestimate him”
“All in all,” Prince Zhou signed, “This matter is not that simple Noperson has ill-intentions I will closely investigate it again One want to knoho is the one behind playing tricks”
Prince Jing nodded his head in agreement
Naturally Prince Zhou and Prince Li did not know that the other party who eliminated both of their assassins and returned it back to theuessed but one who had nothing to do with the the waters of calaht between the Princes of Ming Qi, unknowingly it had become fiercer
And in the passage of ti 'appropriate candidates' the I Qi did not co special but because Emperor Wen Hui was troubled by a matter
He asked the Crown Prince by his side, “What is Great Liang's intention? Is to adopt a confrontational position with Ming Qi? Zhen had never seen such an arrogant person before!”
The Crown Prince did not dare to speak up Prince Rui of Great Liang made a trip to the Palace and one did not knoas spoken to Emperor Wen Hui After Prince Rui left, Ee and threw the entire set of teacup on the table and almost wanted to destroy the Imperial study
The Crown Prince guessed that some impudent words were spoken else Emperor Wen Hui would lose his self-control like this
Ee He was clearer than anyone on Ming Qi's current strength and it was no longer as strong as when the late Ehtly better Qin country and flourishi+ng and fertile Great Liang, there was actually nothing to be proud of In this tribute banquet, it was done that grandly so as to conceal his lack of confidence and show to Great Liang and Qin country that Ming Qi has some abilities
It was just that these acts were only burying one's hand in the sand HuangFu Hao of the Qin country appeared to treat him with respect but in actual it was not Because of Princess Ming An's death, he did not let the Bureau of Investigations off thus the judicial officers were often working on righting a wrong for the Princess of Qin all the tihed at if it was mentioned However Emperor Wen Hui dared not refuse it as he wanted to win over the Qin country to deal with Great Liang
One did not need to s with his own set of rules HuangFu Hao at least showed respect for Emperor Wen Hui on surface but Prince Rui did whatever he liked and did not show any indication of respect for him Emperor Wen Hui comforted himself with that Prince Rui had such a personality like that but did not expect that Prince Rui would make a trip to the Palace and chat in the Imperial Study Eood relations with Great Liang but was completely rejected by Prince Rui
Even though it was not indicated clearly, but his attitude did not give Emperor Wen Hui any leeway at all Emperor Wen Hui was after all a monarch of a country, thus when he loses face, naturally his expression was not good and it became soleet angry and even casuallyand Ming Qi and the topic was all about taking back those cities
Eed in an instant
Those cities were not very big but there were a several mines within the area Those ore that were mined were used inQi and Great Liang and previously Great Liang was not at all concern about these as the people who lived in the cities were Ming Qi's commoners Noith these words, ere their intentions? Itthese cities!
With Ming Qi's th, it was not possible to co
Prince Rui was the appointed envoy for Great Liang and he represented E's intention Prince Rui's see's arievances was that he obviously knew about the other party's ambition but he dared not detain this treacherous Prince Rui because he was unable to withstand E Le's fury There would still be some confidence if one had strike an alliance with Qin country but with only Ming Qi… He could only tolerate it
Being an Enity mad Emperor Wen Hui's heart burn in fury
“With Great Liang's ae with Shen Miao is not in a hurry” Emperor Wen Hui said, “Zhen cannot provoke Shen Xin now It is the critical moment and if Shen Xin is dissatisfied with Zhen, it would not be good as Great Liang would be able to exploit a loophole”
The Crown Prince felt somewhat disappointed when he heard it but did not say much He understood Emperor Wen Hui's teo along with him Thus he said, “This son is not in a rush and naturally would focus onconcealed such a ilance with them”
Seeing the Crown Prince as such, Emperor Wen Hui was very pleased and patted his shoulders, “Zhen knows Don't worry Even though Great Liang has such ambitions, Zhen would not sit and wait for death and discuss with the Crown Prince of Qin to's ambition, they would also be tense It would be natural for the Qi and at that ti Zhen will then personally decree that the irl, Shen Miao, be yours” In the conversation, one took Shen Miao as an ite
The Crown Prince sently and complied but was somewhat resentful with Prince Rui in his heart as he said such things to E was just too coincident Prince Ding gave him such a wonderful idea but it turned out empty with just a feords from Prince Rui that it made the Crown Prince extremely dissatisfied
But one could not do anything about it
The news that cae between Shen Miao and the Crown Prince ere teh one did not know the reason behind, Princess Rong Xin was relieved
That day when she saw Shen Miao in the Palace, she let her personal palace maid sent Shen Miao out of the Palace but she personally went to meet Emperor Wen Hui E Xin so Princess Rong Xin said that she liked Shen Miao a lot and hope that E Shen Miao marry the Crown Prince
Who knew that Ee that he even used the words 'fe Xin also had a tee between younger generations so how does it relate to politics?” She started quarrelling with Eered and 'requested' her out of the Palace
On that night, Princess Rong Xin was so angry that her heart illness recurred again
Fortunately E Xin did it as the few encounters that Shen Miao had were all rescued by Princess Rong Xin Fro Xin and Shen Miao had so Xin to treat Shen Miao special No one would have guess that the reason why Princess Rong Xin was protecting Shen Miao was helping Xie Jing Xing care for Shen Miao
“It is good like this” Princess Rong Xing said to Yang GuGu beside her, “BenGong thought that this ti conscience stricken Now that it is suppressed, there would be leeway to turn it around BenGong will tell her about it Else in the future when one reached the Underworld, BenGong would not be able to face Jing Xing”
Yang GuGu quickly consoled, “If Little Marquis know about Princess's painstaking efforts, he would definitely be gratified”
Just as she was speaking, one saw soreeted before speaking softly, “Your Highness, someone from the medical hall had sent the medical herbs over”
Princess Rong Xin was slightly startled before asking, “Wasn't it finished?”
She had heart illness for a number of years and there was a specific prescription for it and in it there was a particular herb that was extremely difficult and rare to find There were only a limited amount in a year and almost all those herbs were sent to the Princess residence Previously when Xie Jing Xing was around, one did not knohat kind of methods were used every year to search forXin was not at all worried
Later when Xie Jing Xing died, the availably of the herbs in the medical hall returned to the former where one would not know if there would be stock for to winter days, it was even harder to look for it thus Princess Rong Xin had not drank thattime Just a few days back there was no medicinal herbs and one did not think there would be some sent over today
The palace maid said happily, “The doctor fro merchant who ca batch of it thus the medical hall took all of it Heard froh to use till next year What a lucky coincidence”
Yang GuGu also smiled, “It is really lucky”
Princess Rong Xin waved her without paying much attention, “Sent it to the kitchens”
The palace maid co Xin then gave a bottle s was still around, there would be baskets of herbs that was sent over Why is it now that it had became one's luck?”
Yang GuGu knew that she was thinking of Xie Jing Xing and was sadden by it Just as she wanted to change topics, one heard Princess Rong Xin continue speaking, “SupportZhen Yuan”
Yang GuGu was startled Xing Zhen Yuan was a courtyard in the Princess residence When Princess Yu Qing passed on, Princess Rong Xin was angry with Xie Ding's actions and rough Xie Jing Xing to the Princess residence for a period of ti Xin especially instructed people to build a courtyard for hi took Xie Jing Xing back but Princess Rong Xin did not tear down Xing Zhen Yuan When Xie Jing Xing grew up, he would occasionally come over to the Princess residence to stay for a few days and would rest in Xing Zhen Yuan
It was only after Xie Jing Xing died in the battlefield two years ago, Princess Rong Xin then sealed Xing Zhen Yuan and other than the servants who enter to clean, no one else was allowed to enter She herself was afraid that seeing the objects would make one miss its owner, thus she never stepped into the courtyard a single step However today for the first ti Zhen Yuan
Yang GuGu did not dare to disobey Princess Rong Xin's co Xing to the Xing Zhen Yuan Princess Rong Xin said, “One did not knohy in these few days, one keep dreae Yang GuGu was somewhat puzzled with it
