The full-level beauty has become the canary of the crown prince

Chapter 166 The King of Xiling

Xiao Yu didn't say anything, just ate his food.

It was getting dark after dinner, and Ning Jinsi sent Xiao Yu away.

Xiao Yu returned to the East Palace, went straight into the study, and saw piles of paperwork, he helped his forehead.

"Who sent these?" Xiao Yu asked.

Wen Feng replied: "These are sent by the Minister of the Ministry of Justice and the people around King Jin, saying that only the master can solve them."

Xiao Yu closed his eyes, opened them again, and his eyes were cold: "No matter who sent them, they were all sent back to Gu. Father had no intention of governing in the past, but now he is ill. These old people want to use it against Father. How to deal with Gu? It's ridiculous!"

Seeing him faintly showing signs of anger, Wen Feng hurriedly called someone to take away the paperwork and files on the table, and told him where to send them.

"Master, what should we do now?"

Now I don't know who is behind King Jin. If he makes a rash move, he will only scare the snake. Not only will he not be able to catch the murderer, he may even lose his life. This deal is not worthwhile.

"hold on."

Xiao Yu poured a glass of water and drank it.

Wen Feng was silent, turned his head to look out the window, and asked, "Master, do you want to have dinner first?"

"I've eaten." Xiao Yu replied softly, flipping through the books on the table.

Hearing the wind, he was startled: "Didn't your Highness eat at Miss Ning Si?"

Xiao Yu looked up at him: "Is there a problem?"

"How could it be?" Wen Feng hurriedly slipped away.

……

After Xiao Yu sent back the paperwork and case analysis, those people didn't move for several days. Wenfeng felt strange. Xiao Yu sat in front of the hall and looked at the flowers in the courtyard from a distance.

After winter, the wintersweet will bloom, right?
"Master, I heard that the Minister of Rites was also murdered." Wen Feng hurried over.

Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyes and asked, "Who are you talking about?"

"Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, Shen Lan." Wenfeng repeated.

Xiao Yu put down the book and went out without saying a word, and rushed all the way to Shen's mansion, the mansion is now in chaos, Shen Lan's body was placed on a stretcher and covered with a white cloth, Shen Yicheng and Li Chuan sat on the steps.

Shen Yicheng's eyes were red from crying, but at this moment there were only tears in his eyes, and his eyes were dull and unfocused.

"What's going on?" Xiao Yu asked.

"Woooooo..." A little maid came and knelt in front of him, weeping and weeping: "The master didn't come out of the study yesterday, and he even ordered us not to go in. We thought that the master should be because of the endless stream of people who have appeared recently. The case was troublesome, so I didn't bother, who knows...who knows that when I went to the study again this morning, the master was already...already..."

She didn't say the rest, but she understood everything.

Xiao Yu's eyes turned cold inch by inch. Did he fail to coerce him or threatened him with the people around him?
He walked up to Shen Yicheng and patted him on the shoulder: "The orphan will find out, so my condolences will change."

Shen Yicheng nodded, and after he left, tears flowed like a river breaking its embankment.

Li Chuan's arms around his shoulders tightened in vain, his eyes were indifferent.

The butler ordered the servant girls in the mansion to start packing up and preparing for the funeral.

It was dark in a blink of an eye, and Shen Yicheng didn't know how long he had been sitting here, only that there were people coming in and out around him.

He choked up, turned his head to look at the coffin in the hall, he hadn't had time to see his father for the last time, why did he listen to his words and not bother him?
Didn't you always listen to him?Why did you listen to it this time?
He grabbed Li Chuan's clothes: "Li Chuan...I have no family anymore..."

Li Chuan's eyes were dim, and he suppressed the desire to hold him in his arms and said in a low voice, "You still have me."

"Then will you stay with me all the time?" Shen Yicheng asked in a low voice, his voice was still a little hoarse, and a strong nasal sound could be heard.

Li Chuan nodded: "As long as you still need me, I will always be here."

Shen Yicheng responded lightly and didn't speak any more. The autumn wind blew and made him shiver. Li Chuan whispered in his ear: "Go to sleep, wake up and you'll be fine."

After a long time, the moon rose high, and the clouds covered half of it. Shen Yicheng opened his eyes at some point, but there was no light in his red and swollen eyes from crying.

He whispered, "Li Chuan, I can't sleep..."

Li Chuan glanced at the moon in the sky, then sighed, and said, "Then shall I tell you a story?"

"Um……"

"Half a month before the late emperor passed away, the second prince accidentally learned that his father was going to give up the throne to his fourth brother, so he wanted to rebel and seize the throne..."

Half a month before the death of Emperor Yuanxia, ​​sparks started a prairie fire in the imperial palace, and the entire city of Chang'an was in dire straits. The second prince, Xiao Su, learned that his father would pass the throne to Xiao Qingming according to the spy's secret report, so he was furious. Originally, the two did not deal with each other, but after knowing the news, they wanted to raise troops to rebel. They gathered 30 imperial troops and 50 foreign cavalry, and wanted to flatten the palace.

Xiao Qingming didn't intend to be the throne, but he had to face it. The fourth prince who didn't know martial arts picked up a long sword, put on armor, and rode a horse to fight Xiao Su.

80 cavalry broke through the frontier city and approached Chang'an City. Xiao Su's iron cavalry, who could not enter Chang'an, was unstoppable because of someone who opened the city gate. An army that sprang out from nowhere was defeated. For half a month and half the sky was gray, there was no light, blood flowed into rivers, corpses were everywhere, and trees and houses were almost burned to ashes.

However, there was a prime minister at that time, Wen Ke was able to stabilize the court, and Wu Ke went to battle to kill the enemy, but then for some reason, a sentence came out:
"It was the prime minister who let Xiao Su's cavalry into the city."

Just because of this sentence, the prime minister's family was beheaded, and more than 200 people in the prime minister's mansion disappeared overnight, but it was still only the prime minister's mansion. After leaving, he was fostered in a relative's house. Later, the son-in-law grew up, but he didn't know who to seek revenge for.

Is it time to find someone who is spreading rumors?Or should he find the people who executed his family?

Or, is this not a rumor at all?

He didn't know, he could only live in a daze all day, practicing martial arts and reading military books, but it was still useless.

The first emperor passed away, and the four princes ascended the throne. Because of the short half-month war, the only remaining princes of the first emperor were Xiao Su and Xiao Qingming.

Xiao Qingming thought of his brotherhood and worried that he would suffer on the border, so he granted him a fief and named him King of Xiling.

"Li Chuan?" Shen Yicheng suddenly said, "You are crying."

Li Chuan came back to his senses, pursed his lips, raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, "It's okay."

"I heard from my father when I was a child that he said that Prime Minister Song was a good man who devoted himself to Yuan Xia. He felt sorry for Prime Minister Song."

Li Chuan didn't speak, but still hugged him.

"Li Chuan, what's your name?"

Li Chuan paused, he didn't expect him to ask this, it took him a long time before he said, "Song Yuzhou."

"Song Yuzhou... so nice to hear." Shen Yicheng muttered to himself, he couldn't imagine how a child would feel when he learned that his whole family had been wiped out.

There may be fear, fear, and reluctance.

Perhaps more uncomfortable than he is now.

Li Chuan's identity has been revealed, and there should be them in the episode.
