Exile

91

Su Qingbai asked these; but how could the manservant knew about these, as he also heard from dealing with the people who drink and rest here. Although he got the news from people's gossip, the credibility was still very high, because it was not from one person, but many people were talking about these things.

As for how Yue Wang was now, it's not clear.

Su Qingbai's head was a little dizzy. He couldn't help worrying. After he thought about it, he then told the shopkeeper, "look after the two Gongzis. I'll go see what's going on."

Finished saying, he straddled the horse that the manservant led to him and then galloped towards Li Jing's house.

Knowing the meaning of Su Qingbai seeking him, Li Jing stroked his beard. "The messenger only said that Yue Wang was attacked by an assassin, but he didn't say how Yue Wang is now. When I wanted to ask, the man had been called by the fifth prince." Looking at Su Qingbai, whose face was very white, Li Jing immediately appeased him, "don't worry, I'll take you to ask him."

Li Jing knew the relationship between Su Qingbai and Jiang Mao.

"Yes, please."

After that, Li Jing told people to prepare the carriage and went to the fifth prince's residence.

Who knows, when they went to the fifth prince's residence, they were told that the prince had been taken into the palace for questioning. The old emperor was uneasy about the fifth Prince and had to ask himself. Since the last time the old emperor saw Jiang Mao, he was so worried that he didn't come out to take charge of politics. Now Jiang Mao's life and death were unknown. There were thousands of soldiers without a leader. The old emperor was not at ease and came out again with his ill body.

Li Jing and Su Qingbai had been squandering time going to the fifth prince's residence. It's already dark. It's not suitable to enter the palace now.

Without any other option, Su Qingbai went to the Yue Wang Residence. To avoid meeting Consort Lou, he went to the back door.

Jiang Mao had another capable person in Wang Residence of Cangzhou, so he let Hu Hong stayed in Yue Wang Residence of the capital city, to cope with various situations in the capital.

At this moment, Hu Hong, who received the news, was also going to send someone to tell Su Qingbai.

"Lord Wang is fine. It's the grandson fifth prince who set up a sinister plot. If one wants to enter the capital, one must go through Xuning. The fifth prince's eldest maternal uncle defends Xuning. There, that grandson's uncle made an excuse to stop Lord Wang from going forward, and even sent someone to assassinate Lord Wang."

"Fortunately, Lord Wang was careful and not to let them succeed. After catching the evidence of the fifth prince's uncle's plot to murder, Lord Wang forced into the city wall. As for those who come to the capital to report, in fact, Lord Wang specially asked them to listen to the fifth prince, so that he would be so pleased as to lose his sense of measure first."

Su Qingbai was relieved to hear that Jiang Mao was fine, however, "If the fifth prince did this, did he not be worried to be heard by the emperor's ears one day?"

Hu Hong sneered, "The emperor doesn't like Lord Wang all the time. In addition, Lord Wang still hasn't handed over his military power. It was estimated that the emperor was looking forward to the fifth prince's plot to get away with it. Besides... The emperor's favorite son has been almost killed. When there is only the fifth prince left, will the emperor even kill him?"

Everything was clear. Su Qingbai put down his worried mind. "I'll be relieved if he's fine." Then said goodbye to Hu Hong, "I'll leave first."

"Su Gongzi, it's already evening, you can rest here for one night before you leave." Hu Hong asked him.
