The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent
Chapter 71: Misleading, the real culprit is unknown
The emperor said in a grim voice: "If this is true, we must make full use of Ye Xiaohan's weakness."
Yun Lianlian echoed, "I will do my best and follow the emperor's arrangements."
The emperor nodded.
Suddenly, he glanced at Yun Xiang who was lying on the ground, and said solemnly: "I have prepared a list of officials and soldiers, and I will give it to you to handle. In addition, I will send additional people to assist you."
"Remember, it must be completed before tonight."
"Yes, I will definitely live up to the expectations of the emperor."
The emperor looked somewhat gloomy, and said with regret: "It's a pity for my subordinates."
He struggled extremely hard over the past two days to write out a list of court officials, all of whom were followers of his faction. What's more, several of them were his core backbones.
Prior to this, the Emperor sent people to conspire with the other four countries to carry out an assassination attempt on Ye Xiaohan on his way back to the court after defeating the Western Barbarians.
In addition, many of the troops led by Ye Xiaohan back to Beijing were soldiers of the emperor's army, and some spies had infiltrated Ye Xiaohan's army. The spies and foreign enemies worked together to assassinate Ye Xiaohan, who had been seriously injured on the battlefield.
But no one would have thought that even though Ye Xiaohan was fighting many powerful opponents alone, he still managed to escape, but his legs were completely broken and he almost lost his life.
The emperor was unwilling to see all his efforts go to waste, so he sent more than a hundred assassins to attack Ye’s mansion on the second night after Ye Xiaohan’s wedding, but all of them were wiped out.
Afterwards, Ye Xiaohan made a big fuss and made the assassin's body and weapons public, exerting multiple pressures on the emperor both overtly and covertly.
The emperor sent people to destroy the body, but Ye Xiaohan had already sent people to guard the body strictly and used public pressure to force the emperor.
Especially in the past few days, there have been rumors in the capital that Ye Xiaohan is devoted to his wife Yun Mujiu and is particularly concerned about her physical and mental safety. Everyone is more strongly demanding that the real culprit who attacked Ye's mansion be found as soon as possible, and justice be sought for Ye Xiaohan, the guardian general of Zhongyue State.
In the end, in order to protect himself, the emperor had no choice but to push forward some of his subordinates to quell the turmoil surrounding the assassination.
Yun Xiang had a sad face, and then sighed, "Your Majesty, as long as the country is there, there is no need to worry about running out of firewood."
"You have to sacrifice to gain. We can still train up these few people in the future."
"The Night King is now at a disadvantage. His Golden Guards are under our control, and the banks are being suppressed. The Night King is also seriously poisoned and his health is suffering. We still have certain advantages."
The emperor's expression lightened up when he heard this.
He said coldly: "Well, that's natural."
Ye Xiaohan, I have fought with you for so many years, and allowed you to be so arrogant in front of me for so long. Now it is time to get rid of you once and for all.
At the Ye Mansion, Ye Xiaohan, Wei Song and Wei Bai gathered in the study.
Wei Bai had a faint smile on his bright face. He said with full energy, "Your Majesty, I have done everything you asked me to do. The discussion about you in the capital has become more and more heated in the past two days, especially the condemnation of your assassination in the palace. The emperor and his faction can no longer control the growing pressure of public opinion."
Under Ye Xiaohan's arrangement, Wei Bai secretly sent people to stir up public opinion throughout the capital, which greatly mobilized the enthusiasm and resentment of the people and pushed the court to find out the mastermind behind the Ye Mansion assassination as soon as possible.
Ye Xiaohan's eyes were deep and he said coldly: "We will know the truth soon. I guess the emperor is already very busy now."
"Wei Bai, you continue to follow up on this matter. In less than two days, the assassination will be resolved."
"Yes, I'll do the job, just rest assured." Wei Bai's tone became a little relaxed and his smile was refreshing.
Recalling the scene of the emperor's group of death warriors being wiped out, Ye Xiaohan continued to instruct: "Wei Bai, Wei Song, for the time being, do not let our team that killed the death warriors show up in public."
"Also, send a small team from my mysterious team to guide the emperor's group to the direction of Nantai to find the real culprit."
At present, the emperor and his men have been trying their best to suppress him, and they don’t even think that he has other forces and can directly send people to destroy the assassins’ lair.
Therefore, it would be a good idea to use a trick to replace the original with the fake one, deliberately transferring the attraction of the emperor's faction to Nan Tai Guo, while the Ye Mansion faction can remain unaffected.
Wei Song and Wei Bai both nodded heavily, showing great respect and agreement with Ye Xiaohan's words.
Without Ye Xiaohan, they wouldn’t be where they are today.
For many years they have always followed the prince, and the prince has led them through many obstacles and resolved many crises, and finally they have successfully reached where they are today.
Then, Ye Xiaohan clapped his hands lightly.
The next second, a figure dressed in black appeared in front of him. He knelt on one knee, holding a letter in his hands.
"Your Majesty, this is the letter that Master Du just sent."
"read."
Ying read out the contents of the letter one by one, with a clear voice and appropriate tone.
Since Du Ziheng received the sudden news last time, he quickly set off for Duti Valley.
The contents of the letter are as follows:
First, Du Ziheng explained the reason for leaving.
Although he had been expelled from the sect long ago, he could not help but feel panicked when he heard from his former junior fellow apprentice that his master was dying. Once a teacher, always a father. Du Ziheng could only abandon everything in the Ye Mansion and hurried back to see his master.
He then briefly expressed his apologies and said he would come back as soon as he had dealt with the matter.
The mountains were blocked by heavy snow and travel was inconvenient. It would take him several days to reach Duti Valley. It would probably take more than ten days to return.
When Wei Song and Wei Bai heard that Du Ziheng would take so long to come back, they both frowned, their eyes full of worry.
Wei Bai worriedly asked, "What should we do? If Du Ziheng were here, I would feel more confident."
Du Ziheng has joined Ye Xiaohan's faction for several years and has long been one of Ye Xiaohan's loyal followers.
Although Du Ziheng felt helpless about Ye Xiaohan's legs at the moment, he had excellent medical skills which could come in handy when necessary. More importantly, they were 100% sure that Du Ziheng was on their side.
Even though he accidentally saved Doctor Wu and his daughter on the battlefield in Xiyi, and even though Yun Mujiu had been standing by the Ye family all these days, he naturally had to be extremely careful when it came to the life and property of the prince.
One more person means one more guarantee. Moreover, Du Ziheng is one of us.
One step wrong, step by step wrong.
One wrong move and the whole game is lost.
Wei Song continued, "Now that things have come to this, we have no other choice. Moreover, Dr. Wu's medical skills are well-known throughout the world, and he has never been involved in any scandals. People all praise Dr. Wu for his noble medical ethics and superb medical skills."
"If you make adequate preparations for treatment in advance, there shouldn't be any problem." Wei Song gave his analysis one by one.
Wei Bo also nodded in agreement.
The most important person involved, Ye Xiaohan, did not say anything, nor did he mention any concerns. He just listened quietly to the discussion between Wei Song and Wei Bai.
After a while, Ye Xiaohan narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a cold voice: "It's okay, just follow the steps and make relevant preparations."
Wei Song and Wei Bai looked at Ye Xiaohan, bowed their heads and said in a deep voice: "Yes, I obey your command!"
