Now, this sole seedling was gone!
Bai shi's status was special, and similarly, she did not participate in the struggle for the throne. Bai Shu Shu was a wily old fox, as long as he made his presence known at the right time, the position of one of the four elders would inevitably have a seat for him. He could be considered as having a son at an old age — — although he still had a few years old daughter at home, he was still busy making babies, hoping to give birth to a son. His son was not yet 20 years old, so he did not need to be like his father, retiring early. He only needed to steadily and surely pave his son's path. When the day came when he could no longer move, it would be almost there.
As a result, Bai Shu Shu's married daughters were more than ten, but not a single one was directly related to the princes. However, if one were to carefully line them up and calculate, they would find that except for Jin Qinwang, they were basically related to everyone.
Under such circumstances, if this precious piece of meat died, it was equivalent to all their efforts being in vain, all their plans coming to naught. Even the best person would go crazy.
Therefore, the Bai family did not care how the person died. They only knew that after the person died, they would do everything to get justice.
Not counting Bai Shu Shu, Le Chengdi's cousin, Le Chengdi's Eldest Uncle was still alive. Although he was old, he basically did not move at home. His only grandson was gone, it was estimated that even if he had to crawl, he would crawl into the palace to cry to Le Chengdi.
What would Le Chengdi do? Take it lightly? It would only be a thunderous rage.
Jing Wan also thought that the person who schemed against them was really clumsy. Looking at it now, it was clearly very brilliant. No matter what the method was, as long as the person was killed and died in Jin Qinwang's manor, that was a good method. Not to mention that so many people saw Bai Gongzi pounce to court death, as long as there was no solid evidence to prove that someone was secretly plotting behind, the Bai family would bite Jin Qinwang to death. For example, if there was no horse racing, his grandson (son) would not go to the manor. If Jin Qinwang's people did not guard well, his grandson (son) would not have died. If Jin Qinwang did not raise a tiger, his grandson (son) would not have died. In short, there were many reasons.
Although Le Chengdi would not go so far as to take his son's life, and Jin Qinwang appeared to be very idle on the surface, even if he was fined his salary and grounded, it would not be a big deal. It would certainly not satisfy the Bai family. What was most likely was that they would use all of their friendship with Le Chengdi to strip Jin Qinwang of his title and demote him to a common person. For a commoner to become the Emperor, unless Le Cheng Emperor's other sons were all dead, otherwise, it would be more legitimate than a baby prince. Although Jin Qinwang couldn't ascend the throne normally, but he couldn't kill all his brothers after usurping the throne, right?
From Emperor Le Chengdi's point of view, the sixth son could not inherit the throne anyway. Therefore, it did not matter whether the sixth son's status was higher or lower. With his protection, even if the sixth son was a commoner, he could continue to do whatever he wanted. As for what would happen after a hundred years, he would leave an imperial edict early to restore the title of nobility to the son who inherited the throne. In this way, the other sons would not have to worry about passing the throne to the sixth son.
This was simply killing two birds with one stone.
And in Emperor Le Chengdi's heart, it could be said that he would be complacent to solve the problem and protect his son well.
Therefore, if there was no strong evidence to catch the real culprit, things would probably develop as planned.
However, thinking about it, since they had laid out such a trap, naturally it would not be easy to get hold of the evidence.
Jingwan rubbed her eyebrows. How should she break this trap?
"Have all the people at the scene been detained for interrogation?"
"Wangfei, rest assured. They have been guarded and carefully questioned. They will not let go of any clues." Imperial Bodyguard Qian said. Speaking of which, they were also angry. Things were under control, but in the end, such a problem occurred. It was simply a disgrace to them. After all, the other party was just a pampered young master who did not have much strength. They were well-trained. And the guards guarding the periphery were also rice buckets. They were concentrating on dealing with the tiger and did not notice. Could it be that the people outside also could not watch one person? So easily let people run in, or did they deliberately let them in?
"You've been working for His Highness for a long time. I believe in your ability to do things." Jingwan paused. "If there is something suspicious and the other party is not willing to let go, directly ask Gong Jiu to do it. Just don't kill anyone."
Imperial Bodyguard Qian looked at Jingwan with some surprise and quickly lowered his head. Looking at some dark things, the Wangfei also knew. And according to her temperament, she was ruthless. It seemed that she was really angry.
"In addition, temporarily seal the manor. Without permission, no one is allowed to go out. Also, inform the Bai family."
"Yes."
"Go and ask the Prince to come." If it did not involve the Bai family, naturally it would be done. It was fine even without someone.
"Yes."
Jingwan's eyes fell on the mat. "Wait, has Gong Jiu seen the body?"
"Replying to Wangfei, he has not. There are too many people. Even if Master Bai's servants were interrogated, they were not willing to go too far away. They insisted that Master Bai's body was under their eyes. They were very emotional and made a lot of noise. If they touch Master Bai's body, I am afraid that the Bai family will not let it go. "
Jingwan's eyes swept the periphery and quickly found the target. Although she did not know what they were talking about, she could faintly hear crying. Because the tiger had hurt people before, Jingwan thought that the crying was related to those people. But thinking about it, it was impossible for the injured body to stay here. It must be sent to another place to heal.
Thinking about it carefully, these servants of the Bai family were also very strange.
They should know their master's position in the Bai family. If their master died, they would definitely not have a good ending. If they had better endurance, they would be trembling in fear and almost fainting. But now, they still had the mind to think about other things. They were crying and wailing to guard their master's body to prevent others from touching it. This was not normal.
"Let Gong Jiu do it. Interrogate these people first. Since they've already been frightened, it's reasonable for them to be a little more miserable. Then, send someone trustworthy to watch over Young Master Bai's body. Don't let anyone get close. Evacuate all unrelated people. Let Gong Jiu take a look at the body as soon as possible. Before the Bai family arrives, we have to finish everything. Also, find two experienced coroners to do the autopsy in front of the Bai family."
No one would rush into the mouth of a tiger for no reason. If he was not drugged, he must have been caught with something that could affect his mind. This Master Bai was the only son of the Bai family. He was the kind that was endlessly spoiled. However, among the rich playboys in the capital, he was the kind that kept a low profile and did not cause any trouble. Master Bai and his father were very smart. Although they spoiled him, they knew how to control it well. Therefore, Master Bai's' reputation 'was really not well-known. So, it was almost impossible for him to be caught with something that could be used against him. Even if there was, he would definitely tell his family. In order to protect this only son of the Bai family, the two elders of the Bai family would definitely try to cover up the matter. Therefore, the possibility of him being drugged was more than 90%.
"Yes."
Jingwan glanced at him. "You should have thought about it. I am overthinking. If I say so much, it will delay the time. Do it as soon as possible."
"Princess, you are very thoughtful. We are not as good as you."
"That's enough. Don't flatter me. I know how much weight I'm worth. Do it as soon as possible. "
"Yes." It seemed that the flattery failed. Well, when it came to pleasing the princess, he was not as good as Mu 'an, the henchman who was used to flattering.
Jingwan found a place to sit down. She did not want to disturb them.
The maid served Jingwan a cup of tea. Jingwan occasionally took a sip. Most of the time, she held the teacup and pondered.
It was not good to be too idle. This matter either did not come or was extremely tricky.
When Li Hongyuan came over, he saw Jingwan quietly pondering. He waved to the maid who greeted him. When Jingwan looked up, his fingertips fell on her face. They looked at each other for a moment. Li Hongyuan said, "Don't worry. It's okay."
"I think you already know who died. I am worried that in the future …"
Li Hongyuan pressed his fingertips on Jingwan's lips. "Wan Wan, why do you think that this matter will go according to someone's plan?"
"Do you think you can find the real murderer?"
The corners of Li Hongyuan's mouth curled up. "What's the point of investigating the real culprit? There's no need to investigate. Just put on a show. If we investigate too thoroughly, wouldn't we be exposing our strength to outsiders? Even if it's just a drop in the ocean, wouldn't it make people more afraid? Although a fly is nothing to be afraid of, it will be very annoying if there are too many of them. Instead of spending time dealing with those trivial matters, I'm naturally more willing to spend time with Wanwan."
Jingwan slapped his hand away. "I'm serious."
"I'm not joking with Wan Wan. When I first came here, I have already ordered that there is no need to use special means to interrogate. Just ask the normal questions. Gong Jiu doesn't need to look at the body. When the coroner and the Bai family arrive, they can directly conduct an autopsy. The coroner will say whatever the result is. Anyway, according to what you said, it is very difficult to find the real murderer. Some people can't be touched without evidence. It's just a suspicion. So, there is no need to waste time. "
Jingwan looked at him. Was he not joking? "Are you going to take a step back in order to advance? Are you really going to be a commoner?"
"A commoner? Wan Wan is really thinking too much. If I become a commoner, won't Wan Wan be wronged? My position will only be high, not low. I will not be low. " Retreating in order to advance was something that could be done, but it was impossible to make him retreat so much. In this matter, there was no need for him to do so.
"So, Ah Yuan already has a countermeasure. Can you tell me what you are going to do?"
"Wouldn't it be more interesting to have a reversal at the end of the matter?"
"The problem is, according to what you said, I already know the final outcome. So, I am not interested in the reversal process."
"If you put it that way, well, it's probably taking drastic measures."
"What about the specifics?" These words were equivalent to not saying anything.
Li Hongyuan laughed again. "Wan Wan is so smart. You can make a guess yourself."
Jingwan's face was a little dark. Why was he still joking with her at this time? However, the so-called taking drastic measures probably meant that he had something on the Bai Family. It was a very fatal kind. If he revealed it to Le Chengdi, even if Empress Dowager Bai was his friend, Le Chengdi would never help the Bai Family. He would even kill the Bai Family.
Seeing Jingwan's anger, Li Hongyuan finally stopped teasing her. He sat next to her and whispered in her ear.
Jingwan opened her eyes wide in surprise. The so-called taking drastic measures was completely different from what she thought. "Are you sure this is true? You are not going to do this?"
"Of course it's true. If it's false, maybe I will do the same."
Jingwan looked at him with a strange expression. "Prince knows a lot about the things in the capital." It was time to publish gossip magazines. There must be some special news.
"What can this prove?" Li Hongyuan did not take it seriously. As a person of two lives, it was normal to know more than others.
"It shows that Ah Yuan has trained well and his subordinates are all capable people. Otherwise, how can you be omniscient?"
Li Hongyuan cast a sidelong glance at her, "Wan Wan, are you trying to plead for them in a roundabout way?"
With this, Jingwan reacted. No matter what, today's matter, whether it was the guards of Jin Wangfu or the people who looked after the tigers in the Precious Beasts Garden, other than participating, the rest could be regarded as dereliction of duty. They must be punished. It was just a matter of light or heavy.
"I only hope that after the matter is clear, Prince can be lenient with the irrelevant people."
"Didn't I let someone pass on a message to you before? This matter will be handed over to you. How to deal with it, you have the final say."
If it involved the Bai Family, how could she deal with it? Alright, she could deal with the people in the wangfu. The real culprit could be casually investigated. But the people inside, who was the traitor, it must be clear. No matter what the reason was, they must be severely punished. Jingwan firmly believed that they would be able to find out the truth.
"What's next, what should we do? I have already let people temporarily seal the farmstead. "
"Today, we invited people to race horses. What else can we do?" Li Hongyuan said unconcernedly.
Jingwan was helpless, "The person who died is your cousin." Continuing the horse race, wasn't that poking at someone's lung?
"So what? Don't talk about the cousin who is two or three levels apart, even if it's a blood brother, ben wang will still do the same. It can't be helped if he is not pleasing to the eye. In any case, not many people find ben wang pleasing to the eye. "
"Alright, alright, as long as you are happy. Horse race, continue the horse race." In any case, there was already a plan to deal with this matter. In the end, a certain person would not have anything to do, so there was no need to worry.
As for Bai Gongzi who was most likely to die in vain, because he became the only son of Scholar Bai, his value was quite big and he became an unlucky person. Jingwan laughed at herself in her heart. At the foot of the Son of Heaven, there were open struggles and covert struggles for the throne. There were also the ups and downs in each of the noble families and courtyards. Who knew how many people died in vain?
Jingwan sorted out her emotions, stood up, and gave two orders to the people around her.
Soon, everyone in the farmstead got the news that the tiger came out and a life was lost. This matter was basically known to everyone. Originally, everyone was in a state of panic. They thought that Jin Qinwang and Jin Qinwang Fei would send the guests off. They didn't think that they would be so careless and actually want to continue the horse race? Perhaps, it was not careless, but cold-blooded and did not take human life seriously.
However, there were also some people who felt that Jin Qinwang was secretly detaining them in the farmstead. It was just that he was really afraid, or it was for some purpose. Some people made a ruckus and wanted to leave the farmstead and return to the capital.
However, the person they wanted to arm wrestle with was the living King of Hell. If it was another person, perhaps they could still win. But it was the living King of Hell, if they didn't officially arm wrestle, they would have to admit defeat. Therefore, they made a ruckus and in the end, they would still be obedient.
Li Hongming and the others had another thought. The current Scholar Bai was not only Fuhuang's cousin, but also had been Fuhuang's study companion. They had a close relationship and deep feelings. Above him, there was also a tactful uncle who helped him ascend the throne. There was also that biological mother who had already passed away. Three layers of friendship superimposed on top of each other, how many people could compare? They believed that even Li Hongyuan would certainly understand the power of this. Thus, how could Li Hongyuan not be arrogant and impatient? Was he certain that Fuhuang would not do anything to him? Or was there something that they didn't know?
Jin Qinwang wanted to continue the horse race, so everyone could only go to the arena.
It was clearly the same, but the base price of the bet was even higher, so it should be more exciting. However, most people couldn't raise their spirits. Perhaps it was because of the fear of the beast — — this tiger was dead, but who knew if other beasts would appear; or perhaps it was because they were thinking about the matter itself and didn't have the heart to think about anything else.
It was just that these things had a smaller impact on the children, and their attention was also easier to divert. Therefore, it was only the second round, but they were already dancing and cheering.
Perhaps because of their influence, the atmosphere gradually became more enthusiastic.
When the Bai family received the news, Bai Gongzi's biological mother directly fainted. When she finally woke up, she hurriedly informed Scholar Bai, and then rushed to Li Hongyuan's manor. Scholar Bai also arrived at about the same time, wearing his official robe.
Hearing the deafening cheers and extremely enthusiastic cheers, Scholar Bai and his wife's eyes instantly turned red. Their hearts were filled with hatred, and their eyes were about to split open. Their only son was gone, but these people still acted as if nothing had happened, and played so happily!
"Master, Master …" Bai Gongzi's biological mother cried until her liver and intestines were cut to pieces, and she almost didn't want to live.
"Madam, rest assured. No matter who it is, I will definitely seek justice for my son!" Scholar Bai gnashed his teeth, and it seemed that he would absolutely not let this matter go.
When Li Hongyuan got the news, he still gave face and personally went to see him.
Bai Xuan was usually very tactful. He was very respectful to these princes. He did not treat them differently. However, when he saw Li Hongyuan, he did not have the slightest trace of his usual tactfulness. Li Hongyuan was a true life and death enemy.
What kind of person was Li Hongyuan? Basically, he was not the kind of person to greet people with a smiling face. Naturally, he would not speak nicely to people who were angry at him. If it were not for the fact that his uncle's only son died in his manor, and he was more or less responsible for it, it would be strange that he would talk to him. If it were someone else, even if it was his responsibility, he would not expect him to do anything.
When Scholar Bai saw Li Hongyuan's indifferent face, his anger and hatred in his heart jumped up, and he no longer concealed his feelings in his heart. "Your Highness, aren't you afraid of retribution for acting like this?"
Li Hongyuan looked at Scholar Bai, and his posture was casual and calm. "Your son was not killed by me. Why should I be afraid of retribution? You and your father are not responsible for today's ending, right? Not only do you want benefits, but you also want fame. Because you're too good at everything, you've won Imperial Father's favor. If you want to deal with this prince, you won't be able to do it under normal circumstances. Who better than using your Bai Family as a raft? As long as something happens to your Bai Family, it will erode Imperial Father's good impression of you. Even if you use the Bai Family to frame this prince, it will not shake this prince's foundation. Who would touch your Bai Family for no reason? Don't you people pay attention to the middle ground? Since you have done things to the extreme, you should have some awareness. "
Scholar Bai's teeth chattered. He really wanted to eat Li Hongyuan alive.
Li Hongyuan sneered, "Come, take Scholar Bai to see his son. — — Scholar Bai, please do as you please. This prince will not accompany you. "After saying that, he directly flicked his sleeves and left.
Scholar Bai had lost half of his mind because of the pain of losing his son. Now he was stimulated by Li Hongyuan, and he was going crazy! His eyes were bloodshot, as if he was a malicious spirit that had sworn to take revenge. "Li Hongyuan, Li Hongyuan …" He would not let the real culprit go, and Li Hongyuan would definitely not let him go either. To trample and abuse others so casually, what right did he have, what right did he have …
Seeing her son's bloody body, Scholar Bai's wife directly fainted. Scholar Bai also felt dizzy. He fiercely bit his tongue and forced it to bleed. Only then did he manage to stay awake.
The coroner did not find the result of the autopsy. Master Bai's body was directly taken away, which was expected.
