Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

Chapter 272 Who is the mastermind and Prince 8's guess

However, when the Ninth Prince proposed the idea of ​​presenting the Saker Falcon to the Eighth Prince, there were only the Eighth Prince, the Ninth Prince and the Tenth Prince in the car. The matter had to be kept secret, and the people the Eighth Prince sent to look for the Saker Falcon must have been the most trusted people. Unfortunately, the favorite Saker Falcon that was presented to Kangxi became a dead eagle.

So who got the news and trapped the Eighth Prince so that he could never get up again? This matter must be investigated!

The first person that Ninth Prince thought of was Fourth Prince. Old Si was a serious and fair person on the outside, but he had no good intentions on the inside. This vicious scheme of exchanging things without making a sound was probably his handiwork. Fourth Prince really deserved to die!

The tenth prince disagreed, "If what the ninth brother said is true, it was the fourth brother who did it. But the eighth brother is not a fool. He knew that if the fourth brother knew about the offering of the gyrfalcon, he would definitely make trouble. Why didn't he guard against the fourth brother?"

This makes sense. The Eighth Prince must be on guard against the Fourth Prince first, and there is no way he would let the Fourth Prince hear any news.

The Ninth Prince also began to recall the expressions of the other princes when they entered the tent. Although the Fourth Prince had a stern face, the shock that flashed across his eyes when he saw the dead eagle was not fake.

Who else could it be? The Ninth Prince was puzzled.

The Tenth Prince hesitantly put forward a guess, "Although the Fourteenth Prince is not in the capital, he must have left spies to listen to the wind direction in the capital." And the Eighth Prince might be on guard against the Fourth Prince, but he would not necessarily hide it from the Fourteenth Prince.

The Ninth Prince wanted to argue, but the Fourteenth Prince's eagerness to participate in politics was not fake, but would the Fourteenth Prince directly eliminate the Eighth Prince in order to ascend to the throne? The Ninth Prince didn't know.

After a long silence, the Ninth Prince said, "I think this matter is still related to the Fourth Prince. Let's investigate the Fourth Prince first."

The Tenth Prince was unwilling to doubt the Fourteenth Prince, and said, "Then I will send someone to inform the Eighth Brother, and let the Eighth Brother make a decision." The Tenth Prince had the support of the Nianhulu family, so naturally he had a channel to pass the news to the Eighth Prince.

The Fourth Prince was also frowning and thinking. He knew at a glance that the Eighth Prince had been plotted against. The Eighth Prince was such a versatile person, and if anyone dared to do it with him, he would definitely do it perfectly. But now something went wrong.

One possibility is that there is a problem within the Eighth Prince's party. The Nineth and Tenth Princes are just two idiots who only know how to follow the Eighth Prince and invest money wholeheartedly. If they have other ideas, can't they just go it alone? Then who else could it be? The Fourth Prince pursed his lips, unwilling to think about the final answer.

One possibility is that Kangxi directed and acted it himself. But at Kangxi's current age, in order to strike down the Eighth Prince, he cursed himself? The Fourth Prince saw how much Kangxi avoided these things over the years. If Kangxi did this, the Fourth Prince always felt that it was not necessary.

The last possibility is other princes, but this possibility is also very small. The only possibility is the third prince, who has been ignored by Kangxi in recent years.

But the Fourth Prince cannot be easily ruled out. Just based on the foolish things the Third Prince has done in recent years, such as Concubine Min not shaving her head after 100 days and accusing the First Prince of cursing and deposing the Crown Prince, it is possible that he really did such a thing. After all, the Third Prince has a strange way of thinking.

Moreover, this is something that the Fourth Prince must figure out. The Eighth Prince has been competing with him for so many years, but he can't get up for no reason. How can the Fourth Prince not be in trouble? The Eighth Prince has fallen, but the Fourth Prince must figure out the mastermind behind it.

The Eighth Prince felt dizzy after receiving the scolding from Kangxi. "The son of a lowly maid in the Xinzheku", "The love between father and son is gone". It had been three years since his mother passed away, and he was insulted like this because of an unfilial son. Kangxi was as ruthless and cruel as he was to his political enemies. All these made the Eighth Prince unable to calm down. He spat out blood and fainted.

But the Eighth Prince is the Eighth Prince after all. Even in such a situation, he was still able to calmly preside over the situation after waking up. He was the person involved and knew more than the Ninth Prince and the Tenth Prince. For example, when the Fourteenth Prince heard that he had sent someone to his hometown, he once asked if he needed his help.

The Eighth Prince does not want to doubt the Fourteenth Prince, but he was assassinated to ascend to the throne by the Eldest Prince. Now that the Fourteenth Prince has been assassinated, isn’t he just following in their footsteps? This is karma, isn’t it?

The Eighth Lady sat beside the Eighth Prince's bed and asked, "My Lord, have you found out who did it?" If she knew who it was, she would not be called Guo Luoluo unless she skinned the evil-hearted person alive.

The Eighth Prince sighed, "This is really retribution. I stepped on my eldest brother to get to the top, and now the ones behind me are going to step on me too."

When the Eighth Lady heard this, she was confused. "It turned out to be the heartless Fourteenth. If it weren't for Master's help, would he be able to achieve success in the Northwest now?

What is retribution?

How can the Eighth Master's ability and character be compared to the brave but foolish eldest prince? Those princes before him were just born at a good time or had a good family background, but they were all good-for-nothings."

In the eyes of the Eighth Lady, the Eighth Prince is good in every way. Who is more qualified to inherit the throne than the Eighth Prince?

The Eighth Prince leaned against the bed dejectedly, "There's no need to say more. What's the point of finding out who did it? Now that the Emperor has said this about me, I no longer have the qualifications to aspire for the throne. I can't let these people get away with it. I think I'll have to hand them over to the Fourteenth Prince."

Just like no matter how unwilling the eldest prince was, he still had to hand over the power in his hands to the eighth prince in exchange for a secure future?

The Eighth Lady didn't care about these things, but she knew the Eighth Prince's ambitions, and said sadly, "My Lord has the ambition to manage the family and the country, so is he going to let those villains take advantage of him?"

The Eighth Prince reluctantly explained, "If the Fourteenth Brother takes over, at least for the sake of this friendship, our family can be safe. If the Fourth Brother takes over, I will definitely not survive." Wasn't the fight between the eldest prince and the crown prince a life-and-death struggle? There is no way out in political struggles.

"Besides, I was just making a guess. I have already slandered Fourteenth Brother behind his back. Madam Fujin doesn't need to say anything more in the future. It will only ruin the relationship between our brothers." The Eighth Prince worriedly warned Madam Fujin.

The Eighth Lady agreed on the surface, but then she wrote a letter and handed it to the Ninth Prince to tell him about this. Her surname was Guo Luoluo, and according to the relationship calculation, she should have been a cousin of the Ninth Prince.

Concubine Yi originally wanted to strengthen the relationship between relatives, and the Eighth Lady grew up in Prince An's mansion, which was very helpful to the Ninth Prince. However, she did not expect that the Eighth Lady and the Ninth Prince did not like each other, and the Eighth Prince got the advantage.

Although there was no love between men and women, because the Eighth Lady was often taken to the palace by Concubine Yi to stay for a while when she was a child, the relationship between the Eighth Lady and the Ninth Prince was closer than others.
