C147

A few days later, in the throne room, the Emperor was enraged. "Bastard, you still want to deny this?"

King Dingzi and the other princes kneeled in the hall. When they saw the emperor's fury, King Xuan stepped forward and said, "Your majesty, your nephew really did not plan to harm King Ning. Please have a look, Your Majesty."

The emperor ignored him. Instead, he looked at Kong Youwei. "Kong Youwei, say …"

Kong Youwei stepped forward, "Reporting to Your Majesty, this humble subject has already searched the people of King Ding, King Xuan, and Prince Rong's residence. Although there are quite a few martial artists in their residence, this humble subject has not been able to find anyone related to them."

The emperor was slightly startled, but didn't say anything.

King Xuan was no longer convinced and asked, "Since you can't find anyone and have only made wild assumptions, how can you say that it has anything to do with us?"

The emperor had already shouted, "Liang Shucai!"

Liang Shu stepped out of the crowd and cupped his hands in greeting, "Reporting to Your Majesty, we haven't found any trace of this person in the Duke's Mansion, but as far as this humble subject knows, the one who poisoned King Ning is a woman called Nanyu Lan. She often goes in and out of the Mansion of King Ning and King Xuan."

King Xuan's face darkened, it was as if he'd dug out a sore leg.

At this time, Shi Bofei, the Minister of Public Relations, added, "When returning to the emperor, this old official often visits Duke Xuan's estate. This proves that King Xuan indeed does not know anyone called Nan Yulan. This old subject has also suffered from the loss of his son, and I understand the feelings of the Emperor and Prince Yu very well. However, this old subject really can't bear to see the Emperor falsely believe in slanderous words, slandering his own nephew without saving him. "

When the Emperor heard this, his heart slightly trembled and his expression turned grave.

"Your Majesty, how can you be so sure that your nephew is the culprit behind all of the poisons used in the world and not just Nan Yulan?"

Liang Shu then began to speak, "Your majesty, this humble subject remembers that Ning Wang once mentioned that he knew that Southern Yu Lan was under the orders of King Xuan, so I dare to say that this matter definitely has something to do with King Xuan."

The emperor was moved. "King Xuan, do you have anything else to say?"

"Your majesty, from what I know, Nan Yulan has always been a strange man in the martial arts world, and people in the Ning palace have seen her many times. I'm afraid this is not as simple as it sounds." Kong Youwei said.

"That's right." "I know that the 'Seven Corpses Seven Brain Worms Poison' is a poisonous insect unique to the West Mi Country. This matter might have been done by the West Mi Nation, or perhaps the people of the Southern Mi Nation. She and a few other princes might have had to do something to a few princes. Ning Wang met with misfortune. This old official is afraid that her goal isn't here, and that she might be targeting all of the princes. "

The Emperor took a deep breath. It's not like he didn't know about the Mi Nation. Twenty years ago, he had personally led the destruction of the Xi Mi Nation. It was not as if he did not know that the people of the West Mi were on the verge of taking action. Now that he heard this, he felt even more suspicious. Perhaps he had really wrongly blamed King Xuan. Thus, he decisively gave the order, "Kong Youwei."

"This humble subject is here."

"I ordered you and Xiao Tianyuan to investigate this matter thoroughly together. We must bring the Southern Wasteland into the picture, do you hear me?" The Emperor made the following arrangements.

Xiao Tianyuan did not expect that the Emperor would arrange for him and Lord Kong to investigate this case together. Although he was somewhat perplexed, he still went up to Kong Youwei and said, "This humble subject obeys the decree."

The emperor lifted his head and glanced at King Xuan. "King Xuan, do you know your crimes?"

King Xuan retorted, "Your majesty, what crime has nephew committed?"

"Shut up!" "The assassin is related to you. Although there is no evidence to correct your crimes, I will not let this matter rest." He then glanced at Eunuch Li and said, "Little Li."

"Your servant is here."

"Pass my decree that the King shall form a personal alliance and shall henceforth be locked in the manor to reflect on his mistakes. No one is allowed to leave the manor without my decree."

As soon as this medallion was given out, King Xuan's expression changed drastically. He had never received much attention from the emperor. He never thought that the emperor would put so much thought into this matter and even imprison him here. This was outrageous, and he could only nod in gratitude as he held back the resentment in his heart, "Thank you for forgiving my nephew. My nephew will definitely meditate in the palace and pray for Prince Ning."

Only then did the emperor's expression ease slightly.

King Ning was secretly happy, this time Ning was like a cripple, while King Xuan had been beaten into the cold palace. Only he could be left alone, and King Rong was not even worth mentioning.

Fang Zinan looked at everything with cold eyes, and a faint sneer appeared on his face. Although he didn't want to get involved, he knew the crux of it. Right now, the person he was the most proud of was King Ding. Unfortunately, Ning Wang had been poisoned to look like a cripple. He had never liked Ning Wang's character, but when he thought about how he had just become Ning Wang's father, he felt like a madman. After all, they had deep feelings for each other.

The emperor sighed dejectedly, then waved his hand. "All of you can leave."

The Minister and the princes withdrew from the hall, leaving Prince Yu and Fang Zinan in the main hall.

"Imperial Brother, I feel very uncomfortable. We still haven't found the culprit. Ning Wang …" The emperor's tone was filled with apology.

Prince Yu nodded in understanding. "Your Majesty, you've already done enough. This old official understands." Prince Yu was still sad when he thought of Ning Wang's situation.

"Your majesty, father, your son knows that you are all very sad about this." Fang Zinan consoled the two of them, "But it's useless now. You two still need to take care of yourselves."

Prince Yu smiled and said to himself, "If every one of my sons were to be as calm and tranquil as Prince Rong, then I would really be able to take care of myself! "What a pity, what a pity …"

The Emperor couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, "Royal brother, you still have a son to worry about, but I don't even have a son. The Emperor couldn't help but sigh when he heard this," Royal brother, you still have a son to worry about, but I don't even have a son.

Prince Yu laughed bitterly, "We each have our own suffering. "Now, when I think of how young King Ning is, and how useless he is, and how my eldest grandson was born, I feel so sad for him!"

"I am as sad as you are!" The emperor began to cough as he spoke, and Eunuch Li stepped forward to pat him on the back.

Fang Zinan looked at his father, then at his uncle, knowing that both of them were feeling sad about King Ning's matters. He also felt bad, so he forced a smile and advised: "Your majesty, father, you already know who is the culprit. Even though my big brother was poisoned, he's still alive. Perhaps in the near future, the imperial physician will find a way to treat my big brother's illness. As long as my big brother is still alive, there's hope. "

Hearing this, Prince Yu raised his eyebrows, "Prince Rong is right. Fortunately, Ning Wang has a son, which can be considered a great fortune in misfortune! "

The Emperor also nodded.
