Chapter 10;

Sending Xu Wenwu's head was just the beginning.

For the Xu family and the Gao family, her revenge is far more than that.

Beijing.

Xu Wenwu died in the prison of Dali Temple, and the news that his head was cut off and sent to Xu's family has spread.

Those who heard it were all shocked.

Has anyone dared to go to Dali Temple to kill people these days?
And he was the son of the minister who killed him, the nephew of the left prime minister.

However, apart from being shocked, many people are still happy that Xu Wenwu has done a lot of evil things all these years relying on his status.

Bullying is considered light. He especially likes to raise vicious dogs. There are not a few people who have been maimed and killed by his vicious dogs over the years.

After being killed this time, many people who have suffered from disasters feel that God has eyes.

Left Prime Minister Gao's mansion.

Gao Yanming's face was gloomy, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.

His most beloved nephew was killed and beheaded in less than a night after being imprisoned in Dali Temple.

And he also gave the head to his sister by name.

It's just downright bad.

"Brother, could this matter be His Majesty?"

Xu Zhao pointed to the top of his head.

In his opinion, being able to kill someone silently in Dali Temple and take the head away to his house is not something that just anyone can do.

During the day, Xu Wenwu almost caused the eldest prince to lose his life. The people above had this motive.

However, left minister Gao Yanming shook his head.

He also had such doubts at first, but after thinking about it, it didn't make much sense.

It is true that the above does have motives.

However, if someone wants to kill a servant boy who almost killed the eldest prince, is it necessary?

For this crime alone, when the eldest prince and others came back yesterday, the higher-ups ordered to kill them on the spot.

Neither he nor the Xu family could speak a word.

Why bother to put him in prison first and then kill him?

"Since it's not His Majesty, could it be the Queen?"

As soon as Xu Zhao said this, Gao Yanming immediately glared at him.

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"I'll let someone investigate this matter, you go back first, and comfort my little sister."

Hearing this, Xu Zhao didn't say anything more, just answered, stood up and walked out.

Only Gao Yanming was left in the study.

"Queen of Kings"

In fact, it wasn't that he didn't doubt it, and even said that when he learned that Xu Wenwu was killed, the murderer he thought of was Queen Wang.

The eldest prince is her lifeblood, and she almost lost her life outside the city because of Xu Wenwu yesterday.

Back then, when His Majesty had not ascended the throne, and the Queen was still a princess, she was known for her clever and ruthless means.

But almost none of the people who provoked her ended well.

Yesterday, she actually did not give any punishment lightly, which is very abnormal in itself.

He also thought about letting his wife bring his younger sister into the palace to plead guilty today, and try his best to let the queen vent her anger.

This will also make the subsequent rescue of Xu Wenwu smoother.

but
Not only did he have such doubts, but King Jin, Lord Zhen Guo, and even the emperor who knew about yesterday's incident also had such doubts.

After all, someone who has the ability and motivation to kill Xu Wenwu silently in Dali Temple.

Queen Wang definitely takes the first place.

As for Queen Wang who was in the middle palace, she had not received any news at this time, and she was playing a daily verbal confrontation game with all the women in the harem.

Until an old nun walked in from the outside and whispered something in her ear.

None of the women who can sit on the seat of Empress Zhonggong is an ordinary person.

Although the news shocked her heart, she was even a little shocked.

But there was not the slightest wave on her face.

Seeing her nodding her head slowly, she chatted with the concubines for a while with a light smile before dismissing them all.

As the concubine Gong left, the smile on her face disappeared instantly.

A touch of cold climbed up.

What the old nanny whispered in her ear just now was the news that Xu Wenwu was murdered in Dali Temple, his head was cut off and sent to Gao Shi.

Logically speaking, Xu Wenwu's death would have no effect on her.

In normal times, at most it is just an interesting story to listen to.

But because of what happened yesterday, hearing this news now has a different meaning.

"Aren't people outside suspecting that this palace made people do it?"

The old mama nodded in response.

When she heard the news just now, her first reaction was the same.

However, only for a moment.

After all, she served the queen all year round. After the queen came back yesterday, although she was furious, she wanted to deal with Xu Wenwu.

But it didn't really work.

It's true that Xu Wenwu is just a little guy, but Xu Zhao and Gao Yanming are standing behind him.

Both of these two are high-ranking officials and powerful ministers in the court, and each has a lot of contacts under their hands.

Especially Gao Yanming, more than half of the officials in the court are his former disciples.

She would not be so stupid as to fall out with such two powerful ministers.

It was said outside that the eldest prince's position as the heir apparent was secure, but she knew it very well.

As long as the emperor doesn't make a decree for a day, the eldest prince will always be just the eldest prince.

After yesterday's incident, after she was furious, she was a little happy, because of Xu Wenwu's fault, she was magnanimous, and she sold Gao Yanming and Xu Zhao's favor.

Even if they couldn't be drawn into the First Prince's camp immediately, at least at some point, they would be willing to speak for the First Prince.

However, Xu Wenwu died.

Not only did this make her calculation abort in an instant, but she would even be hated by these two because of it?
How can she not be angry if she steals chickens and loses money?
"Who did it?"

There was uncontrollable anger in her voice.

The ladies of the palace were silent, and each of them lowered their heads to lower their sense of existence.

Only the old nanny was not affected. She followed the queen before she got married. For more than [-] years, what kind of storms and waves have she not experienced?
"As soon as we got the news, the people below went to investigate."

"The murderer's method was very clean and did not leave any clues."

Snapped!
Queen Wang directly threw out the teacup beside her.

The cracking sound was very ear-piercing, and the maids and nuns around them knelt down on the ground.

Instead of kneeling down, the old mammy even stepped forward a few steps to please the queen.

"Your Majesty, calm down, don't get angry."

"Things have happened, what we need to do now is to let those two families know some of your thoughts."

With her comfort, Queen Wang's breath became much smoother.

"What do you think about this matter?"

"At Prime Minister Gao's residence, yesterday evening I handed over a sign. Mrs. Gao and Mrs. Xu want to come to see you."

Queen Wang was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.

Immediately, he ordered the palace servants to go to Gao's house.

Suburban farms.

Lu Yaoyao is in a good mood today, sitting by the window and flipping through the latest newsletter in Beijing.

"Miss, Prince Jin is here."

Because of Xu Wenwu's incident yesterday, she was somewhat dissatisfied with King Jin and the First Prince.

What did you say that you will clean up severely, and this is the end?
"Just say I'm on a lunch break."

Qiu Yu was taken aback, it's so early in the morning, you've only been up for a while?
