Chapter 216: You won’t tell the truth, will you?
Xiu Luoran watched as the second group wiped out the first group, leaving no one alive.
"Get rid of the body, quickly."
"Yes."
After Yi Jingxuan finished his instructions, he walked towards where Xiu Luoran was hiding.
That’s right, the second group of people was brought by Yi Jingxuan.
Xiu Luoran also deliberately exposed himself so that Yi Jingxuan could discover him.
The two stood face to face, and Xiu Luoran asked:
"What are you doing here?"
"My people got the news that a group of assassins from the Second Prince were coming here, so I followed to see for myself. I didn't expect that the person they wanted to kill was you."
Speaking of this, Xiu Luoran's anger suddenly emerged:
"Is your second brother sick? He kills this one and that one the next.
Your father doesn't care, do we really have to wait until he kills everyone before we do anything?"
Yi Jingxuan asked Xiu Luoran very seriously:
"How do you know these people are my second brother's men?"
He had an insider in the Second Prince's Mansion, so he knew that these killers came here to carry out the mission.
Where did this girl get the information?
Xiu Luoran glanced at Yi Jingxuan:
"Do I even need to ask? I've only offended a few people since I came back from the nunnery.
The only one who has the ability to send so many assassins to kill me is your second brother."
Yi Jingxuan didn't say anything. He thought to himself, if even this girl knows that it was his second brother who did it, then those people in the capital who are interested in this must also know about it.
I don’t know what the second brother is thinking. Does he think that no one knows what he has done?
Or does he simply not care?
Second brother, do you think that even if the emperor knew about this, he wouldn’t do anything to him?
Seeing Yi Jingxuan didn't say anything, Xiu Luoran said to him:
"I am not someone who is easily bullied. If anyone bullies me, I will pay him back double.
I want to seek revenge on the Second Prince, you won't tell him, right?"
Yi Jingxuan snorted coldly: "This prince also bears grudges, I will also seek revenge on him."
The last time Yi Jingxuan and Yi Jingge were being hunted, Xiu Luoran helped.
In fact, Yi Jingxuan didn’t really want revenge. Even if he really wanted revenge, he wouldn’t tell Xiu Luoran.
He just wanted to follow Xiu Luoran so that he could stop him if Xiu Luoran went too far.
Yi Jingxuan knew a little about Xiu Luoran's abilities. If she really killed the second prince, the capital would be in turmoil and the emperor would hold her accountable.
If that happens, it will be very disadvantageous to Xiu Luoran.
Yi Jingxuan didn't want Xiu Luoran to get into trouble, and at the moment, he also didn't want the Xiu family to come into conflict with Yi Jingshi.
Xiu Luoran was very happy when he heard this:
"Yi Jingxuan, let's work together. You find the people, and I'll be in charge of drugging them. I want to cripple them, and I want to make sure Yi Jingshi has no one to use."
Yi Jingxuan was shocked: "What medicine are you going to give me?"
Wouldn't it be highly poisonous?
Based on his understanding of Xiu Luoran, Xiu Luoran didn't like killing people, and even more so didn't like killing people with his own hands.
"I have a medicine that can cripple a person's martial arts skills. After taking this medicine, even the most powerful martial arts skills can be crippled, turning a martial arts master into an ordinary person."
Yi Jingxuan breathed a sigh of relief. If that was the case, if he could disable some of his second brother Yi Jingshi's men, he would be more obedient since he would have no one to rely on, right?
He has been jumping around a lot recently.
"Miss Xiu, it's settled then."
"it is good."
Two nights later, outside the small garden wall in the back yard was repaired.
When Xiu Luoran turned it over, he saw Yi Jingxuan was already waiting there.
Yi Jingxuan said: "Follow me."
Xiu Luoran followed closely behind Yi Jingxuan. Yi Jingxuan performed Qinggong and walked quickly while introducing to Xiu Luoran:
"There are three open action teams in Yi Jingshi's mansion now, and I know of two working secretly. The ones working secretly should be more powerful than the ones working openly.
In addition, he also has a staff team, all of whom are resourceful and have come up with many good ideas for him.
Which one should we deal with?"
"Of course we take them all."
Yi Jingxuan hurriedly said: "No."
Xiu Luoran certainly knew that wasn’t possible.
If the second prince Yi Jingshi is driven out of the circle of succession fighters in the capital, there will definitely be other princes and other forces to replace him.
With Yi Jingshi standing there blocking the way, he attracted a lot of people's attention. When the Third Prince wanted to do something, there wouldn't be so many people staring at him.
Xiu Luoran pretended to be helpless and said:
“Well, let’s leave him some people to work.
We will keep the people in the open, and reform the people in the dark and the so-called staff group, what do you say?"
Yi Jingxuan thought it was feasible, "Let's do it. Be careful, we're here."
The two dodged two groups of patrols and came to where the killers were staying.
After entering the house cautiously, Xiu Luoran immediately spread out the knockout drug, and then together with Yi Jingxuan, began to feed the drug to these people.
The killer solved it.
The reason why he chose to take action tonight was because Yi Jingshi was going to hold a small meeting today to discuss an important matter, and almost all of his trusted aides were there.
Xiu Luoran and Yi Jingxuan took advantage of Yi Jingshi's absence to quickly deal with these staff members.
The medicine they were given was a drug that reduced their intelligence.
Before Xiu Luoran came out tonight, he specifically asked his eldest brother Xiu Lingce whether there were any of the Third Prince's people among these staff members.
This needs to be made clear, so as not to accidentally injure friendly forces.
Turns out there really was one.
Xiu Luoran gave him fever medicine, and it looked like he had a severe cold.
In order not to appear out of place, Xiu Luoran also fed this medicine to several of his aides.
The two of them moved very quickly. Yi Jingshi came back just after they left. It was a close call.
Since Xiu Luoran has this ability, why not just get rid of Yi Jingshi and his people? It would be much easier.
But no.
why?
The struggle between the second prince Yi Jingshi and the third prince Yi Jingpin can be said to be evenly matched, with each having their own victories.
After Yi Jingpin's leg was broken, Yi Jingshi took control of the overall situation with absolute advantage. Many people felt that he might be the final winner.
Yi Jingshi himself probably thought so too.
Yi Jingshi was too powerful. He attacked and won over powerful officials, and bullied and hunted down the princes who posed a threat to him.
At this time, you can weaken his power and destroy his prestige.
If you want to touch him or kill him, just try and see if the one on the dragon throne will deal with you.
The two princes were fighting each other, and the emperor sat on the mountain and watched the fight, observing the development of the situation to see which prince was more suitable to take his position.
This is the mentality of an old father watching his two naughty children fighting.
After the third prince broke his leg, the second prince became the most prominent.
Although he is rather violent and has a bad character, he is capable.
The third prince has already done that. If you depose the second prince, do you think the emperor will take action to destroy you?
As an old father, he beats and scolds his own naughty children, and as a father, he is definitely not happy when others teach them a lesson.
Yi Jingxuan knew this truth, and Xiu Luoran knew it too.
……
The Second Prince's Mansion.
The second prince Yi Jingshi walked around the room and asked from time to time:
"How is it? What does the imperial doctor say?"
"My Lord, the doctor said that the medicine is too strong and it is harmless to the body. It just makes you lose all your martial arts skills, and you are no different from an ordinary person."
Yi Jingshi yelled: "Can't they make an antidote?"
"The imperial physician said that they couldn't make a prescription because they didn't know what the ingredients of the medicine these people were taking were."
"How are those gentlemen?"
Yi Jingshi was asking about the staff.
“They are still like that. Several gentlemen who caught a cold got much better after drinking the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician.
From the outside, the gentlemen are no different from normal people, except that they can’t remember many things.”
Yi Jingshi asked, "What can't you remember?"
"They said they couldn't remember anything they had said to the prince before."
"Bastard!"
Yi Jingshi cursed loudly.
No one knew who he was scolding, the person who gave the medicine, the imperial physician, or even someone else.
"Who came in last night? Didn't the guards and security guards notice it?"
"No."
After his rage, Yi Jingshi calmed down.
If anyone touches him, it's a bad sign. It looks like someone is going to take action.
I have come this far, how can I let others take advantage of me?
It seems that some things need to be decided soon.
