As soon as Jiangmen Jiaojiao opened her eyes, she was paranoid that the prince had come to steal her

Chapter 257 The Death of King Liang
The prince's complexion changed drastically and he resisted with his backhand.

He has been on the battlefield with his father since he was a child. He is an all-around civil and military man who can fight on horseback and can plot when dismounted.

It's just that after the founding of the country, he entered the court, and the court affairs were so complicated that he couldn't move his muscles often. Now his reaction was half a beat slower, and he could only barely hold the wrist of King Liang, and King Liang pinched his throat and pushed him to the ground.

"Third brother, you—" the prince spoke with difficulty and kicked King Liang's lower body.

King Liang stepped on the prince's knee and used force with his hands.

In an instant, the prince had difficulty breathing, and his face turned blue and purple.

At this critical moment, a long sword flew towards King Liang's wrist.

The meridians in Liang Wang's hands holding the prince's throat were severed.

At the same time, a kick flew forward, kicking King Liang away and hitting the wall of the iron prison. The iron chains rattled and King Liang fell heavily to the ground, where he lay twitching.

"Father!"

A tall black figure flew past and helped the prince up, "Father, are you okay?"

"Ahem - not bad."

The Prince of Liang had just locked his throat with murderous intent, but now there were fingerprints on the prince's neck, and his throat was in pain like tearing, and his voice became hoarse, "Why are you here all of a sudden?"

"I have something to report to my father. I heard that my father came to Tianlao, so I came to look for you." Yun Qi calmly helped the prince stand up.

At this time, the crown prince's guard Yanli who stopped next to Prince Liang said coldly: "His Royal Highness Prince Liang seems to be ill."

The prince looked back and saw Prince Liang huddled together, trembling and foaming at the mouth, and his eyes kept turning white.

The prince's expression changed slightly, "Call the doctor quickly!"

The warden outside had heard the noise here, came in to see the situation, and hurriedly ran out to find someone to call the doctor.

Yan Li tapped the acupuncture points on King Liang's body three or two times, but King Liang did not stop hesitating, and the situation only became worse.

When the prince helped Yun Qi take three steps and two steps to reach King Liang, King Liang's eyes kept turning white, his body stiffened and shook strangely twice, and he stopped all movements.

The prince froze: "He is -"

"died."

Yanli pressed his finger on Liang Wang's artery, raised his eyes and said, "I'm dead."

The prince staggered back a few steps, unable to believe that a living person who had just been talking properly was gone like this.

But looking at the strangely stiff body, he couldn't help but believe it.

Yun Qi frowned, condescendingly, and said in an extremely calm voice, "The death of Uncle Sanhuang is strange. Father, I think we should block the news immediately and investigate everyone who has been in contact with Uncle Sanhuang in the recent period."

"well……"

The prince nodded heavily, "He was obviously fine just now, but suddenly he went crazy. The onset of this illness is really strange... Ahem, I will leave this matter to you. You should investigate carefully and don't let go of any clues!"

*
"Your Highness, the prince has left the prison!"

In the palace of King Zhou, a middle-aged man sneaked into King Zhou's bedroom like a ghost.

It was already past midnight, but King Zhou had not rested yet.

Hearing this, Zhou Wang Yuntingyi's long, narrow and feminine eyes suddenly narrowed: "Have you left?"

"Yes, he left with King Dingxi." The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said, "He obviously left the capital, how could he suddenly go to the prison... This person is really cunning!"

"..."

King Zhou took a deep breath and asked calmly: "What is the current situation in that prison?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince staggered. After returning to the East Palace, he invited Lu Jingrong over overnight. He must have been injured." The middle-aged man replied: "Now Tianlao is under the control of King Dingxi, and a whole team of Xuanjia troops have been dispatched. , I don’t know what’s going on inside at the moment.”

King Zhou stared at Ye Mingzhu beside the bed, his expression gradually darkening, "Yun Qi, this kid..."

"I don't know if Prince Liang is alive now..." The middle-aged man said with a solemn expression: "Your Highness, please come up with an idea quickly, what to do now!"

Tonight was meant to be a borrowed knife to kill someone.The king of Liang fell ill and killed the prince, which would surely anger Emperor Xuanwu.

Then Liang Wang could not escape death.

He is insane and no one will believe him no matter what he says.

And when Yun Qi went to pursue Xie Zhaozhao, he was filled with love and love, which would definitely arouse the dissatisfaction of the courtiers and the anger of Emperor Xuanwu.

The good plan turned out to be like this.

If King Dingxi finds out something, the consequences will be disastrous.

King Zhou got up and paced back and forth in the room. Because he was only wearing his middle coat, which hung so loosely on his body, he looked extremely thin.

"We are doing this matter very secretly. Yun Qi may not be able to find anything." King Zhou stopped and suddenly said: "If he could produce evidence against me, I am afraid that I would not be able to live in peace for a long time."

The middle-aged man was slightly startled, "That's true."

If there was evidence, they would not be allowed to be as comfortable as they are now.

"Then... what should we do now?" The middle-aged man hesitated, "Should we just do nothing and wait to see what happens with King Dingxi and the Crown Prince?"

"of course not."

King Zhou suddenly smiled, "My third emperor brother has most likely lost his life now. At this time, if I don't know how to take the opportunity to do something, wouldn't it be too stupid?"

*
The cold wind howled all night, doomed to be no peace.

Yun Qi asked Xuan Ming to lead a team of Xuan Jia troops to escort the prince back to the East Palace.

When the driver left, Yun Qi glanced thoughtfully at Yanli, who was guarding him beside the driver, with waves surging in his eyes.

"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Lin Ye asked in surprise when he saw that he was not moving.

"fine."

Yun Qi looked away, "When will Lu Hanqiu arrive?"

"If something happens here, send someone to summon Master Lu. He should be here soon."

As soon as Lin Ye finished speaking, a carriage appeared at the corner of the front street. The carriage ran quickly, with a lantern hanging on the eaves. The three words "Dali Temple" on the lantern swayed in the night wind.

When they got closer, Lu Hanqiu got out of the car and sighed: "The lower official is like an old donkey, spinning around whenever he is called."

"It's good that you know." Yun Qi said slowly, "Hurry up."

Lu Hanqiu was instantly shocked: "Your Highness, can't you say something nice to coax people?"

Yun Qi gave him a cold look that said, "You haven't taken your medicine."

"Ok."

Lu Hanqiu tugged at his lips, raised his hands and shook his sleeves, "Let's do something."

He took Wu Zuo and others into the prison to check.

Yun Qi lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then asked, "Has there been any news from Lin Zhen?"

"No."

Lin Ye shook his head, "Your Highness, you don't have to worry too much... Miss is very skilled in martial arts. She brought her own people with her when she left the city, and she always followed the official path."

"The Shangyuan case happened only a few days ago, and the police and soldiers patrolling the suburbs of Beijing are very strict. No one should dare to catch the young lady's attention."

"Really?" Yun Qi said coldly: "The Tianlao is heavily defended and almost watertight. Didn't the same thing happen just now?"

"But, that's because King Liang suddenly became ill——"

"It's not surprising that his illness would happen earlier or later, but it would happen at this time."
